Madoka's husband Tomio refuses to leave his futon for fear of "dark nature spirits" that he says are everywhere. Tomio explains that he had a one night stand with a mysterious woman who turned out to be a demon, and that ever since then, he has seen the spirits everywhere he looks. One evening when Madoka is in bed, she suddenly begins to see the spirits, as well as the demon Tomio encountered, and flees the apartment, not returning for an entire month. When she does, she finds Tomio in a near trance-like state and still inside the futon, which is overgrown with a hallucinogenic mold that had been responsible for everything the two had seen. Chris Randle of The Guardian gave the series a mostly positive review. He noted that Ito usually avoided being "political" in his stories, and also compared the collection to a toned down version of the ero guro art movement. Ultimately, he concluded that Ito liked to write stories that were less personal and more fascinated with things beyond comprehension, like Lovecraft but without the latter's political views.

Kaoru prides herself in supposedly having tics similar to Nanakuse's characters, and imitates them for weeks at a time after reading Nanakuse’s works. After sending the author a letter, she is invited to meet her at her home, where she is unpleasantly surprised to find that Nanakuse is in fact a mean spirited, cross-dressing man, who accuses her of being a " tic faker". Despite the rather brash nature of this meeting, Kaoru agrees to join Nanakuse for drinks, eventually drinking so much that she passes out from alcohol intoxication, after which Nanakuse imprisons her in a dungeon under the house. In a meeting with the Town Association, Nanakuse explains that she had moved to the town because of its supernatural past; the land having been supposedly used for both burials and rituals of a supernatural and demonic nature. Kaoru awakens to find herself trapped in a cell, surrounded by people exhibiting various tics. Nanakuse arrives, and reveals that she takes her inspiration from the tics developed by the people she keeps imprisoned there in darkness, and has hopes that Kaoru will develop one that she has never seen before. Kaoru resolves not to move to keep from developing one. Three days later, Nanakuse enters her cell to find that she has become completely rigid and unable to move, her face contorted into a grotesque and deformed expression as a result of attempting to resist the urge to develop a tic. Nanakuse uses this as the basis of a novel titled Ultimate Tic before placing Kaoru in a glass case and donating her to the Town Association Hall, where she and the rest of the association proceed to laugh at her relentlessly.

The team found far older items, too. Youth volunteers participating in the exploration of one of the Muraba’at Caves, for instance, discovered a huge, 24- to 26-gallon basket made 10,500 years ago. As Ella Tercatin writes for the Jerusalem Post, experts think the woven vessel is the oldest of its kind found to date. Fragments of Horror is a particularly clear illustration of this difficult line, since instead of diving deep into one horror concept, it offers a scattershot helping of many weird ideas. “Fragments” is a good name for this collection - the stories collected here aren't equal in shape and size, and some of them are more portions of stories or thought experiments, while others are fully realized narratives. Some of the stories here take one poignant or unnerving concept and elaborate it into a full drama or horror show (like “Gentle Goodbye,” which is less frightening than melancholy, a classic ghost story). Others riff on a weaker idea that can't quite sustain itself (like Wooden Spirit, a strained concept that never evolves past some fairly simple imagery), or simply exist for the sake of one stark or wild image (Futon, which at least has a brief length fitting for its very simple premise). a b Luster, Joseph (December 15, 2015).

While my praises on his artwork isn't totally a lie, but I wish it would be somewhat distinguishable. I could see some disappointment harbored for this particular work of his, but I wasn't his old time fan to be coming up with the conclusion.

Muse Abuse: Magami Nanakuse's muses only exist due to abuse. She pushes her fans to a breakdown, sending the "weak" ones home crying and keeping the strong ones as inspiration for her books, waiting to see how they will develop grotesque compulsions for her to write about.

Ruriko Tamiya in "Dissection-chan" is obsessed with being dissected from cutting up animals as a child, and visibly suffers internal pains. It turns out when she finally gets her wish (at her autopsy), her organs have mutated into a bizarre conglomeration of the animals she has tortured, killed and cut open. These arguably Freudian themes are heightened in “Dissection-chan”, which finds a bland medical student -- Itō is laudable consistent with the dullness of his protagonists -- confronted with a human cadaver which not only proves to be alive, but turns out to be a woman he'd known since childhood. Ruriko was always obsessed with playing doctor, and loved nothing more than dissecting hapless animals with the coerced aid of our narrating non-hero. Now as an adult, she wants to be dissected herself, to relieve the mysterious and lascivious aches in her belly: “Aaaaah! I get turned on just imagining it!” she grins, laying nude in the narrator's apartment. He does not consent, and it is only years later, when he has become a teacher, that they are reunited: her dead on the slab and him unexpectedly tasked with dissecting his old friend before an eager class. All of them are stunned by what they find as her belly is opened – new animals, mutant forms of the critters she dissected as a child, crammed into her body in place of any logical organs, as if having burst from her womb and devoured everything in sight. Ruriko's corpse smiles. It is accomplished. The fragments from the Prophets have been identified as coming from a larger scroll that was found in the 1950s, in the same “Cave of Horror” in Nahal Hever, which is some 80 meters (260 feet) below a cliff top. According to an Israel Antiquities Authority press release, the cave is “flanked by gorges and can only be reached by rappelling precariously down the sheer cliff.”
