An amazing read. Probably the most tense I've felt reading anything. The writing builds tension and suspense wonderfully while throughly disturbing you with moments of horror and the mere idea of other aspects of it. It toys wonderfully with lovecraftian esque horror and the deep rooted psychological fears of what lies beyond the veil of human reason. It does bother me that at points characters will be stupid or act stupid for little reason, such as how the final and best written ending only happens if Koji decides to act retarded. Yoh's "death" also feels a bit lackluster in terms of her reasoning for going there. Has the same issue most horror movies have where when people die it doesn't feel like it was out of their control. Might be a personal issue though, still a fantastic read! - 2022
