[MrIronFarmer]

Guess they forgot to do this for the Junji Ito collection.

"We visited the shrine so it doesn't get cursed"

Guys it's Uzumaki, it's *already cursed*

[TheRealBattleGuy]

I appreciate adult swim so much for providing these little highlights for the projects they're working on.

"jason messed up a little bit"
thank u jason, now the show its doomed

[maganashaker]

Uzumaki? There are no spirals to be found here. Maybe we should summon Remina instead?

[thatguyoverthere]

Now there's not way the Uzumaki anime can fail right? RIGHT!?!

[TheChodeman]

It’s so cool to see how much love and dedication went into making the series. It’s bound to be great

[lockejawe]

The Junji Ito Collection crew should have done this before working on the project...

[jarshall]

impossibly excited. the inclusion of Colin Stetson is absurdly up my alley.

[ulfheinn]

Then the altar opens to reveal Tomie laughing maniacally at them.

[luru]

The amount of respect going into this show by this production team is amazing.

[kenshin]

Nobody:
Uzamaki production team:*Y’ALL MIND IF WE PRAISE GOD!?!*

[charlesbarkson]

I ain't religious but I'd probibly want a blessing if I was working with stuff that scary

[Hazard-dxhz]

I love the respect that Adult Swim has for Japanese culture, religion, and spirituality. The immense dedication to this series, and to Junji Ito’s work collectively, shows.

[FirionLeFleur]

As all game theory fans know,
Blame Jason.

[MrHayabusaSan]

Hot damn, they visited a Shinto shrine to have their anime be literally blessed. Crazy.

[psybovine]

"I think Jason messed up a little bit, but..."
Welp, Jason's to blame for 2020. Gotta sacrifice him to the Kami to fix this shit now

[JuanDiego-obti]

Me before watching the video: wait, is this canonical?

[ant]

I'm loving all these behind the scenes bits. Let's hope that even with those stumbles Demarco made the Network will remain uncursed.
