Kurozu-cho, town of my birth. Let me tell you the story...

...of a strangeness that happened here.

UZUMAKI [spiral]

Oh no... I'll lose again.

Chapter 1: Premonition

Yamaguchi!

Surprised?

Huh?

You looked surprised.

Well, of course I did!

Are you angry? Surprising people is just a hobby of mine.

Oh, is it? How nice for you.

Wh-What do you want?

Goshima... will you be my girlfriend?

What?!

Okay, okay...

You win, I was surprised. But I'm sorry. I'm really in a hurry. Bye.

Goshima! I'm serious! I really like you!

Is that Shuichi's dad?

Hello.

You're here.

Guess I win today.

Hey!

Two people on a bike's illegal. You dumb kids.

Wanted: Junji Ito

Beauty Salon Marble

Hello!

Oh, welcome back!

I'm all done tidying up.

Thanks so much.

Huh?

The sign's gone.

Oh, dear... You're right!

Why do we have to take exams?

It's okay for someone smart like you, Shuichi...

Me, I could keep up in middle school pretty easy...

But high school is a different story.

Especially math. I just can't get it.

Makes my head spin.

Hey...

Hmm? Oh...

A while ago, I saw your dad on the street, Shuichi.

He was staringly filming this snail shell.

Uh... But... Maybe I was just mistaking him for someone else.

It was dark, so...

It was my old man.

He's been acting weird lately.

Oh?

Kinda, yeah.

Shuichi, you haven't been looking too good lately.

Too much studying, maybe?

I think it'd be better if you take it easy.

You'll get into any university you want.

- Your grades are great, and- - Hey, Kirie.

Will you elope with me?

What? Elope?

No, you can't, can you?

Right out of the blue? There's a time for everything... Um...

Sorry. Forget I said it.

Let's go.

Shuichi...

- 480 yen, please. - Okay.

Here you go.

Thanks.

- And... 200,000 yen change. Here you go. - Thank you!

Oh, that's right. I hear your father took top prize.

Yes, thankfully.

That's great.

So now he's "Goshima-sensei," eh?

Oh, there's no need to call him that.

All right! Today's a special day, so I'll give you a bonus!

Okay...

Are you sure?

Of course! To celebrate.

Thank you, mister!

You just get better and better, Mr. Goshima.

You won the Midoriyama Exhibition prize, didn't you?

Oh, that? How embarrassing. That was just luck.

No, no...

How do I put it... Pottery is the truest of the arts.

The art with the true uzumaki.

The uzumaki... as art?

I see...!

The uzumaki! I must admit, sometimes it makes me dizzy.

It truly is marvelous.

Well, Mr. Goshima? Will you create me a piece?

A platter that will really make my eyes spin.

Please make me one in an uzumaki pattern.

So, a platter with an uzumaki pattern?

Yes.

An uzumaki, a spiral.

One that goes round and round and round.

Round and round and round?

Yes.

All right.

I'll do it.

Excellent.

You know, Mr. Goshima...

When I see the uzumaki, I feel...

...a sense...

...of deep mystery.

Deep mystery, you say?

I knew you'd understand, Mr. Goshima.

The uzumaki is sublime.

It is, in itself, the greatest work of art.

And you are the great artist...

...bringing it forth!

Yum.

And... here's dessert.

Fancy today, aren't we.

The old greengrocer gave it to me, to celebrate.

Oh... is that so?

Yet another blessing from your o-mamori charm, Kirie.

O-mamori Charm

O-mamori Charm

Take some credit for your ability, Dad.

Shuichi's father even said so. Gotta keep it up, now.

Yeah. Guess so.

Here goes...

How'd you know? Were you listening?

Mm-hmm.

Oh, that's a good melon!

Is it? Let me try.

You're right! That is good!

Isn't it?

Delicious.

Kirie

I was such a klutz, but you were always there to help me.

Even when my mother died...

Don't cry, Kirie.

Don't cry.

Because I'll be your mother for you.

I don't want a boy for a mother!

Hey, Kirie. Will you elope with me?

Elope, huh?

Not quite yet...

...dear Shuichi.

Morning.

Oh, morning.

Shuichi's trying for a Tokyo university, isn't he?

What's this, all of a sudden?

I guess he probably is, yeah.

"Probably?" Kirie, you haven't talked about something so important?

Nope.

"Nope?" What kind of answer is that?! You're going out, aren't you?

We're not "going out," exactly.

Now see? That's where you-

Surprised?

Yamaguchi!

You're wasting your time trying to get Kirie's attention like that.

Kirie has a boyfriend.

Shiho!

I know. Shuichi Saito, right? Forget him, he's a drag.

If I can score a hottie like you, it'll make everyone so surprised!

You're the drag here, dummy. Come on, Kirie.

H-Hey, wait!

Don't follow us.

Goshima!

Aw...

You've caught the attention of quite a weird guy, Kirie.

He ambushed me yesterday, too.

Ambushed?!

Better be careful. Word on the street is he's bothered others from different classes too.

For real?

A guy like that...

...is the same as this.

What do you mean?

[Skirt = sukaato / Stalker = sutooka] He's a stalker.

[Skirt = sukaato / Stalker = sutooka]

Three dots.

Three-and-a-half.

Three.

Miyazaki!

I liked him, too...

You all right, Kirie?

Yeah. Thanks.

I'm fine now.

What a nasty thing to see.

They said he was doing acrobatics on the stairs' handrails.

What an idiot.

But... Didn't he look like he had a smile on his dead face?

It is normal to smile?

He died happy.

Sekino...

It's such a wonderfully happy thing to be noticed by others, yes?

People who are not noticed have no reason to live.

Don't you love it when people look at you?

Wouldn't you two agree?

I don't really like sticking out...

Anyway, the guy's dead, okay?!

'Cause it's the only way he'd be noticed.

I, too, want to be noticed... especially now.

I want to be seen... in the truest possible way.

That staircase... had a spiral shape, didn't it?

How'd you know?

The uzumaki.

Huh? "The uzumaki?"

What's the uzumaki?

The spiral-pattern has the power to draw the eye.

So the person who drew the uzumaki wanted to draw other eyes, too.

The uzumaki must have drawn that dead guy into it.

No way.

It was just an accident.

I've started having a bad feeling about this town...

I get dizzy just coming home through that tunnel.

This town's cursed by the uzumaki.

I don't feel anything...

My old man went to your place yesterday, didn't he?

Huh? Ah, yeah...

He wanted my dad to make him a platter with an uzumaki pattern.

He called him a great artist-

You see? The uzumaki.

You're overthinking this. Lots of people like uzumaki patt-

You don't know what you're talking about!

I'm sorry.

My old man's over the edge.

He's stopped going to work. He just walks around,

bringing home anything he finds with an uzumaki pattern.

The house is full of stuff. If you call, he won't answer.

He just sits there, staring at the uzumaki.

Just last night...

Dad's sick, you know.

And you can't take much more, can you, Mom?

We should take him to a doctor...

Beauty Salon Marble

Here.

It's been a long day.

Phew...

Hey...

More spiral fishcake.

Ah... That was the last of it.

What? No more?

I'm sorry.

You have nothing to apologize for.

And I'm supposed to eat miso soup without it?! Is that it?!

After that, my old man calmed down a bit.

It's not funny.

But...

Would you come over my house?

You'll understand when you see it.

Dumb kids!

You have no idea what you've done. I can't allow it.

Please, stop...

Stop it, Dad! What's wrong with you?!

My precious collection... she threw it all out!

I threw it out.

You're better off without it.

What did you say?

What would you know?!

Please! Please go back to the way you were...

Please snap out of it, and open your eyes!

Ah, well.

If it's gone, it's gone.

The collection's not important. The idea of the uzumaki is enough.

Recently, I've finally realized that.

One makes one's own uzumaki.

You listen, and listen good!

One can express the uzumaki through one's own body.

For example... like this.

Chapter 2: Erosion

What's wrong? You seem down.

Haven't seen Shuichi lately, huh?

Did you fight?

Another girl?

You got dumped?

- Then what's wrong?! - Ishikawa!

Y-Yes, sir...

Do you want to fail again?

Oh, Katayama! What time do you think it is?!

S-Sorry...

I-I left my house at t-the usual time this morning, but...

Teach!

It's 'cause he's so slow. A snail's probably faster! Right?

Tsumura...

Snail, snail, you leave a trail...

Oyama!

Shut up with that stupid song!

Anyway, Katayama...

You are you. It's true you almost never come to school these days unless it rains.

Come to the office later.

Y-Yessir.

The office... It'll take him two years.

We'll be graduated by then.

Just sit down, will you?

I hate to agree with Tsumura, but Katayama really is slow, isn't he?

Ishikawa!

Y-Yes, sir.

I didn't say you could sit down.

You slimy fuck...

Just lookin' at you pisses me off. Get the hell out of my face, fatso!

Die!

You're pissin' me off.

- Hey. What are you doing? - Makes me wanna hurl.

Hey.

Hey!

Hey! Cut that out!

Hey, stop it, Oyama!

Tsumura!

All of you! Sit down!

Don't worry. We'll find someone.

Surprised?

Could you move?

With Love, from Mitsuru Yamaguchi!

With Love, from Mitsuru Yamaguchi! Open it.

With Love, from Mitsuru Yamaguchi!

With Love, from Mitsuru Yamaguchi! Don't want to.

With Love, from Mitsuru Yamaguchi!

With Love, from Mitsuru Yamaguchi! Won't you even look inside? It's okay, just open it.

With Love, from Mitsuru Yamaguchi!

Did you like that?

Just go away!

Why don't you like me?!

You're just not my type. Now leave me alone.

Goshima... I won't give up, you know.

I'll sweep you off your feet.

I'm home. Sorry it's late.

Ah, welcome back.

I'll go get supper ready.

Ah, Kirie...

Sorry to trouble you, but would you mind bringing this platter over to Shuichi's father?

What?

What do you mean "what?"

If he doesn't like it, tell him I'll do another.

Hello?

Shuichi?

Hey!

Shuichi, you there?

Shuichi?

Hey, Shuichi...?

Hey, I said.

Where are you?

Shuichi?

Shuichi...?

That's Kirie's voice!

Kirie.

What's wrong, Kirie?

Kirie, what's the matter?

The uzumaki.

Did you hear how he died?

Heart attack, wasn't it?

No, seems like it was suicide...!

Though it seems they haven't told the relatives the truth.

Come to think of it, the coffin was closed.

Wonder what he looked like when he died...?

I'm counting on you.

Are you okay? You look pale.

What about you, Shuichi?

Yeah... I had a feeling something like this would happen.

Now it's my old lady who worries me.

I haven't told her yet, but when this is over...

Mrs. Saito! What's wrong?

What's that?

No more! Please! Stop it!

Mom! What's wrong?

Shuichi!

Mom! Calm down!

Shuichi... There, up there! It's your father!

Mom! Mom!

Ambulance! Call an ambulance!

Mom!

Dragonfly Pond...

Be brave.

Kirie...

Let's get out of this town before it's too late.

What?

Didn't I tell you?

This town's cursed by the uzumaki.

We've got to get out.

What about your mother? She'll need a few more days.

Right.

You're Shuichi Saito, right?

Ichiro Tamura, Reporter

Ichiro Tamura, Reporter My sympathies.

Ichiro Tamura, Reporter

You knew my father?

Actually, a few weeks ago, your father came to our office.

At that time, he said he was interested in the history of the town...

...and we showed him what we had.

Was he acting strange?

May I?

Well...

He kept going on about the uzumaki.

The police told me how your father died.

What I want to know is, why did he die like that?

Now, it's not for an article.

I simply want to know the reason.

I keep thinking his death has some deeper significance.

Plus, there was that smoke at the crematorium... Something's wrong here.

Will you trust me?

Hello.

Hey, that's from that time-

The video my old man taped.

He was taping when he died, too.

Hello?

Let's see it again.

A mirror?

My mom's mirror.

But why put in a mirror?

Not to mention...

Can I hang onto the video? I'll contact you as soon as I find something.

So you and Shuichi spend a lot of time together?

Yes... We've been friends since we were little.

Ah, childhood friends, eh?

The best kind to be.

It's just...

He's always been there for me.

He's always cheered me up when I've been down.

But...

But now, I...

I have no idea what to do for him.

What could I do for him...?

For poor Shuichi...?

I can't do anything.

At a time like this, there's nothing anyone can do.

He'll have to find his own way through.

Still...

Call it a reporter's instinct...

...but I have the feeling just having you around's a big comfort to him.

"Comfort"...?

Sure.

So believe in yourself, and do your best.

You've gotta be strong.

Okay.

Let me know when we're almost at your house.

Oh, take a right at the next corner.

Next corner, turn right.

Look out!

Dad!

You all right?

I'm fine.

What happened? You're covered in mud!

I went for clay at Dragonfly Pond.

Dad...

Dad!

You'll catch a cold.

Go away! Go back to bed.

But...

Get your ass back in bed!

Next.

You study for the biology exam tomorrow, Kirie?

What?

"What?" Did you forget?

Yes.

Okay.

Next.

You okay? Lately It's been like you're from another planet, Kirie. You sure nothing's bugging you?

Whoa, whoa, whoa... Check it out.

Was Sekino's hair like that earlier this morning?

Next.

Yes.

Dude, yo, slow down. Or you're gonna puke it up later.

Kurozu Hospital

Kurozu Hospital For your mom. She likes sweet things, right?

Kurozu Hospital

Kurozu Hospital Thanks.

Kurozu Hospital

Oh, sorry. It's just my old lady can't have those.

Sorry.

My old lady sees my dad there, in his final dead state, in every spiral shape she sees.

Oh... I'm so sorry...

Fingerprints are uzumaki too, so we mustn't let her see anyone's hands.

You want it?

Sorry about the weird outfits, but the staff's being careful, too.

My old lady's obliterated every uzumaki she can find.

Obliterated the uzumaki?

You'll see.

Her "spirophobia" is the first thing we have to work on.

Yukie Saito

Mom.

Why, Kirie...!

Shuichi Saito, Shuichi Saito...

Please come to the nurses' station at your earliest convenience.

- Excuse me. - Yes?

I'm Saito. Someone called for me?

Yes, a Mr. Tamura wants you to call him right away.

All right, thank you.

Ah, hello? It's Saito...

Ah, Shuichi?

I've found something important.

Can you meet me at Dragonfly Pond right away?

Right now?

Yes.

Yes, understood.

There's another one there.

What are you doing, Shuichi?

It's dangerous for my old lady! If she realizes there's an uzumaki in the ear, there's no telling what she'll do.

What?

Mr. Tamura seems to have found something.

We may solve the mystery of the uzumaki yet.

So you... So you shot me down for a loser like this, huh?

Kirie, who is this guy?

It's okay, though.

If that's how you feel, then I've made up my mind.

We're in a hurry, so get out of our way.

Shut up!

Goshima... I'll guarantee that you will never, ever forget me.

Yamaguchi!

Kirie...

Kirie...

We used to play here a lot when we were kids.

Mm-hmm.

You were such a scaredy-cat.

Once I said there was a big snake here who ate little girls,

and you burst out crying.

I remember that.

It made you uncomfortable, Shuichi.

You told me not to worry, 'cause you'd always protect me.

It's so quiet...

It's as if none of it were real.

But if this is all a dream... I hope I wake up soon.

It's not a dream. Real people are really dying.

This town is cursed by the uzumaki. And it definitely will continue.

Kirie?

Shuichi...

I'm... scared...

I'll absolutely protect you.

Shuichi...

Chapter 3: Visitation

Yukie Saito

Yukie...

Yukie...

Why do you hate the spiral so?

All this time, it's been inside your body...

I want to go deep inside your ear...

Let me curl around it and sleep inside you...

Stop it!

The spiral is deep inside you...

Deep inside your ear...

The spiral is in your ear...

The spiral is there...

No, stop it!

There's that smoke again...

It spirals like that when they cremate someone.

Whether they're from this town or not.

Say...

Doesn't that look like a face...?

Woah! I do see a face!

You see it, right?

Mom...

Now for a typhoon notice.

So, I think there's this guy in our class called ******.

One day, he gets this uzumaki on his back,

and he only comes to school on rainy days, right?

It's like this totally cute pattern, though.

Just thinking about it, I... Oh my God!

Oh, ain't no doubt that's ******. He starts chugging tons of water,

then he starts gettin' real slow.

My old man, he's a greengrocer, and he says he saw these "human snails" in the hills.

These huge snails were, apparently, once human.

Although the creatures' whereabouts are currently unknown,

these two so-called human snails were last seen leaving town

for the hills outside it, where a search is now underway.

But the strange events in Kurozu-cho don't end there.

The one thing these incidents all have in common is a strange spiral pattern.

This town's doomed. We gotta get out of here.

I'll get my father.

Kirie...

I'll go with you.

How much further?

We're just about there. Look, I see the tunnel up ahead.

Good. Here's hoping the next story won't be so weird.

Huh? I can't see the other end...

"I-I-I found a sp-i-i-ral..."

Huh?

He was here earlier...

Maybe he's at the kiln.

Dad?

Where could he have gone?

Dad...

What's wrong, Shuichi?

Kirie...

It's got me too.

Huh?

Stay back!

Get away from here. It's too late for me now.

No!

No.

You said we'd both go.

Kirie...

I'm sorry.

I... I couldn't protect you...

No, hang in there...

Kirie... I...

Shuichi?

Shuichi...?

No!

You promised me!

You told me you'd always...

...be here to protect me!

Don't die on me!

Don't die.

Come into the spiral...

Come into the uzumaki.

Kirie...
