Notes From Your Bookseller

With all the usual bells and gristles of Junji Ito, Remina brings new stakes on a galactic stage. When a newly discovered planet canabalizes all in its path, only Earth remains. How can humanity face this unspeakable horror, and is the culprit closer to home than they think?

An unknown planet emerges from inside a wormhole, and its discoverer, Dr. Oguro, christens the body “Remina” after his own daughter. His finding is met with great fanfare, and Remina herself rises to fame. However, the object picks up speed as it moves along in its curious course, eliminating planets and stars one after another, until finally Earth itself faces extinction… Is the girl Remina the true cause of the catastrophe? A masterwork of horror from Junji Ito, unfolding on a universal scale.
