Junji Ito - Hellstar Remina (RAW) Anonymous
A recent Lovecraftian horror manga by Junji Ito (UZUMAKI, TOMIE). 350 pages. Japanese Text. RAW. Untranslated. In "moonspeak". Not translated. Yeah, sorry.

The huge filesize and high resolution is because I hope some translation group will decide to work on this. Of course I apologize to all Ito fans who are stuck on a dial up connection.

I'd love to see this translated, Uzumaki was brilliant. I'm not going to download 400 MBs for moonspeak though.

Yes. Google or Rapidsearch and you'll find lots of translated stuff. Great horror mangaka.

As for the torrent, I won't download it because I don't understand a word of Japanese, and reading something from Ito without actually understanding what's going on is pointless.

Thanks, though.

Sadly seconded. I was about to jump for joy until I noticed it was raw. No offense to the OP. Still glad it's being shared.

If one thinks about it, MAYBE thanks to the raw being posted by the Op, someone will translate it sooner or later, who knows.

Well, I'm quite fond of Junji Ito's works, so once I've finished downloading it, I'll see what I can do about translating it if I like it. Probably won't get a chance to actually tear into it until Saturday, but we'll see how it goes.

Unlike Uzumaki, you can actually grasp the story from just looking at it.

Giant mutant-monster-world named after pop idol is on its way to devour earth. Cults, etc, etc, random flying, etc, etc.

Pretty good, and more horror-y and less weird (lol spirals) than his other works.

The flying isn't random. It occurs because the gravity fields of Remina and Earth cancel each other out.

It does. You have two large bodies pulling. And you're in the middle. This isn't Chaos Theory people.

See? Now everyone can read it because we've decoded the story.

Not just gravity cancellation.
That Rimina lick Earth with its giant tongue, speeding up Earth's rotation and the centripetal force reduce effective gravity. Tongue movement generates huge circumnavigational winds(trail wind). When people jump into the wind they flow along with it and orbit the Earth.

Simple plot to help people read w/o translation:
1) Some scientists discover a new type of celestial object, which according to theory come from another universe via a worm hole.
2) The chief scientist names the new object after his daughter, rimina. This makes her famous.
3) Rimina’s outlook attracts attentions from mass media, and she eventually becomes a pop idol.
4) Rimina the alien object(abrv to R from now on) are found to be moving in unpredictable orbit, frequently colliding with nearby stars and destroying them in the process.
5) One day the researchers found R suddenly stops jerking around. With relativistic correction they found R is heading straight towards solar system. Despite it was 16 light years away, it will arrives earth in a few hours.
6) Information leak to public, people freak out and do stupid shit. R destroys outer planets one by one and eventually arrives Earth. People blame the chief scientist and Rimina for naming the object and try to kill them.
7) Chief scientist is killed. Rimina escapes and run around. R licked Earth. People flying and orbiting Earth etc.
8) Some people “escape” to R, mistaken that R’s atmosphere is breathable. They are killed by it after they landed.
9) R finally eats Earth. Rimina and a few folks escape with a space vehicle.

I thought TOMIE sucks cock.

Tomie was great. Gyo was a bit average and silly. Still, it had the Enigma of Amigara Fault, so it's forgiven.

The first volume of GYO was lame but the second volume made up for it and was awesome. TOMIE sucked cock. AMIGARA is seriously overrated though I like it.

Opinions. Tomie was great for me, while Gyo didn't scare me in the less, and almost made me laugh at the forced bizarreness of the situations.

I think Amigara deserves the praise. BTW, overrated is an overrated term.

I thought GYO was meant to make you laugh at the over-the-top weirdness? I mean it has fart-powered machine-girls and land-whales.

Tomie < Gyo < Amigara < Uzumaki.

I can live with that.

I love every single one of his works that I've read so far. I think the best word to it all is bizarre...

I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Hellstar Remina even without being able to read the words. Now I'm looking for more of his RAW stuff. There's a torrent on deadfrog but it's dead.
