Much as I appreciate VIZ for publishing a lot of Junji Ito, I didn't like some of their translations cause they didn't hit as hard. Just the panels below illustrate my point.

From VIZ (Official):

From DANIEL.AU (Fan Scanlation):

I get it, censorship and all that, and maybe VIZ’s version is technically more accurate, but seriously - a little cursing in a horror manga won’t hurt anyone, right? Considering the target audience? But hey, maybe that's just me.

Also, I am not even gonna speak about the abysmal anime version. It's not just as intense.
