Synopsis

Venus in the Blind Spot is a short-story collection drawing together horror manga by Junji Ito from across his career, published in English by VIZ Media in 2020.

It includes "The Human Chair," Ito's adaptation of Rampo Edogawa's classic story, and the widely read "The Enigma of Amigara Fault," alongside "Venus in the Blind Spot," "Billions Alone," "The Licking Woman," and further stories. The stories are unconnected narratively; the collection's throughline is a recurring focus on compulsion and fixation.

The edition includes color pages and illustrations from Ito's manga No Longer Human.
