Magami Nanakuse

[cyberghostface]

Nanakuse invites Koketsu for a drink. Koketsu tries to impresse Nanakuse with how much she can handle and gets drunk.





The other prisoners display their own 'tics' that they've developed after being confined. Nanakuse reveals that she uses them as inspiration for her work.



She begins to find herself moving but tries to prevent herself from twitching to spite Nanakuse. Eventually she starts to stiffen up.





"She's frozen her entire body completely solid... what it comes down to is that I have to declare this the ultimate tic!"

Thank you! That's the biggest laugh I've ever had reading a Junji Ito manga.
That's a face I really didn't expect.

Shades of Basil Wolverton!

And that's why you should listen to your mother when she warns you that if you keep making that awful face, one day it'll freeze just like that!

Since we don't have a tag for transphobia, can I ask for a warning before the cut about transphobic caricatures? They're a bit of an unpleasant surprise for me.
