Junji Ito - Gyo

The sun came upon the horizon white threatening void between heaven and earth. This was the empire, rising hopeful, destined for sky. Doomed to fall. Never to fade.

The mind will always detect the origin of an idea. In order to remain real, the idea must be father. Or secret dollhouse safe. A real idea, in the right hands, is an intravenous anti-kick and life is but a dream.
