| Remina (Manga) | comment |
Remina, also known as Hellstar Remina (地獄星レミナ Jigokusei Remina) is a 2005 single-volume manga by Junji Ito. Like the rest of his works, it's filled to the brim with plenty of Body Horror, Eldritch Abominations, and general horror.An astronomer in a Japanese observatory, peering into his telescope one night, becomes the first person to witness a planet emerging from a wormhole. He names the planet after his daughter, Remina, and both become world-famous thanks to the unprecedented discovery. However, things take a turn for the worse when the planet enters a collision course with Earth, and the stars along the way seem to be disappearing...The official English translation was released in December 2020 from Viz Media. | |

| Remina (Manga) / int_1a2a363 | comment |
Guilt by Coincidence: Remina was born on the same day the planet emerged from the wormhole. This leads the public to believe she and her father are responsible for its appearance or controlling it somehow without any solid evidence. | |

Humans Are Survivors | |
| Remina (Manga) / int_317388f4 | comment |
Humans Are Survivors: Brought up again by the hobo, who notes that the cultists chasing them in a misguided attempt to stop the Hellstar are merely demonstrating the indomitable human's will to survive. By the end, the hobo plays this trope straighter by defying the odds and leading a few survivors to safety just before the world ends. | |

But What About the Astronauts?: Inverted. The astronauts residing on Mars and the Moon are the first to go, since Planet Remina has been destroying/devouring the celestial bodies in front of it on its way to consume Earth. The astronauts that landed on Planet Remina to investigate it, as well as VIPs that followed them there also suffer horrific fates. | |

Ass in a Lion Skin | |
| Remina (Manga) / int_3b4b7b79 | comment |
Ass in a Lion Skin: Played deadly serious. One of Remina's tongues inserts itself into a discarded spacesuit to lure in the Mineichi family to get them to let their guard down so it can devour them, which is especially effective because the suit belonged to an astronaut they had come to believe was an estranged son. It's likely the humanoid figures from the probe footage were actually a similar trick. | |

The Apocalypse Brings Out the Best in People: Painfully deconstructed. Only a few people are decent while others such as Goda are selfish assholes are in it for themselves. And thusly, Reima, Daisuke, and a couple of people are the only survivors, but their survivability is rather slim, since Daisuke tells them they have a year. | |

Humans Are Bastards | |
| Remina (Manga) / int_3d4d3dc9 | comment |
Humans Are Bastards: For the most part, anyway. Panicking at the thought of the coming apocalypse, the populace direct their anger towards Remina and her father, brutally murdering the latter and chasing the former around the Earth. Perhaps somewhat justified in that the angry masses were being egged on by the cultists, but otherwise yes - this trope is played fairly straight. Said hobo's point becomes even more poignant when it's also pointed out that sooner or later, everyone would turn on each other in the vain hope of sparing their own skin. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
| Remina (Manga) / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: When Remina, the Hobo and the mob are flying around the Earth, one member shoots the two of them and is sent hurtling away by the recoil. Another tries to hit them with a flying car, misses and turns around to try again, only for the wind to blow him into the ocean. The Hobo even states these exact reasons why their attempts failed. As it turns out, trying to colonize the planet-eating abomination is a bad idea, and its large mass makes for stronger gravity, as Kunihiro complains. The elder son of the Mineishi family had been determined in becoming an astronaut and left his home. The Mineichi family mistake a dead astronaut as their long-lost son on the surface of the hellstar. The real son failed to fulfill his dream and becomes a hobo Remina meets. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |

Bittersweet Ending: With so much emphasis on the "bitter" part that it's only marginally not a Downer Ending. The planet Remina succeeds in eating Earth, wiping out basically all life in the known universe. Remina, Daisuke and other survivors that escape Earth's annihilation thanks to a bunker, but it only has enough supplies to last them for a year and all they can do is pray for a miracle to save them and Remina is still distraught by the deaths of her father and manager. However Daisuke is confident that everything will be alright, giving the ending a undercurrent of hope. | |

Cold-Blooded Torture: Occurs to Remina and the bum in Chapter 4. Both of them are restrained and their heads dunked into a canal near-death, and are whipped and beaten with metal rods several times.

Humans Are the Real Monsters | |
| Remina (Manga) / int_4ac8b81f | comment |
Humans Are the Real Monsters: Planet Remina, despite being the catalyst for all the chaos and managing to successfully devour Earth with little trouble, is never given much characterization beyond being a giant thing that likes eating planets, and it's unknown if it can even understand the ethical consequences of its actions. A majority of the plot is instead focused on the humans who use the planet as an excuse to focus all their fear and anger on the human Remina, declaring that she has to die in extreme suffering just because the planet is named after her. | |

Alien Landmass | |
| Remina (Manga) / int_6fde1981 | comment |
Alien Landmass: The surface of Remina is a hellscape full of toxic gasses and fog, intestine-like tubes, and "trees" which look more like writhing balls of tentacles. Nearly all of it is black as midnight, and that's not getting into the fact that Remina has eyes, tongues, and at least one mouth. | |

Apocalypse Maiden: Remina is believed to be one of these because of her father's unfortunate decision to name the world-devouring planet after her. Following nationwide mass hysteria caused by the approach of Planet Remina, a cult-like group forms that believes Remina herself is tied to the planet's arrival, and that ritually sacrificing her will prevent the end of the world. As the planet grows closer and closer, massive mobs of people start to hunt for Remina, demanding her capture and execution. | |

Apocalypse How: Physical Annihilation of the Solar System by Planet Eater, to be exact. Given that stars go out in Planet Remina's wake, it presumably dishes out Stellar-class apocalypses casually. Remina seems to play with its food in the case of the Earth, leading to devastation from deflected missiles and then extremely-accelerated rotation. | |

Foreshadowing | |

Foreshadowing: The lead cultist is seemingly quite angered by Remina embracing the hobo. This is because he is Goda, and is still as possessive of Remina as before, just driven homicidal by percieved rejection. The hobo knows a lot about astrophysics as he observes the effects of the planet Remina on the Earth. He is the Mineichis' long-lost son who wanted to be an astronaut. | |

Dogged Nice Guy: Goda tries to put on this facade whenever he's specifically talking to Remina before feeling rejected, in the hopes that Remina will eventually fall in love with him. In actuality, Goda shows little regard for her feelings or agency, and only wants Remina to fulfill his own desires towards her. Whenever he interacts with anyone else, he will curse at them, insult them, or in some occasions beat the crap out of them. | |

Dramatic Irony: The Mineishi family thought the eldest son, Daisuke ran away from home to become an astronaut, and went by the alias "Daisuke Kaneishi". Except, we've actually met the guy observing the planet until it looked back, and his body is likely to have died and reformed into a hideous monstrosity, and Daisuke Mineishi was a hobo who was living off a street not far from them after he failed to be an astronaut. | |

Too Dumb to Live: An enormous monster planet devours most of the solar system and several stars on the way over, and intends to consume Earth as well. Clearly, that same monster planet is the top choice to flee to and colonize (to be fair, it's also the only place that will survive its rampage, since it obviously can't eat itself). Some of the refugees even believe that it'll be a utopia, based on a few reports from the first explorers (before said reports stopped very suddenly). | |

Why Don't You Just Shoot Him? | |
| Remina (Manga) / int_bce16d24 | comment |
Why Don't You Just Shoot Him?: The cultists have many, many occasions to kill Remina, but never actually get around to it. Somewhat justified since, being batshit crazy cultists, they want to make her demise a ritualistic sacrifice during which she has to go through as much suffering as she supposedly brought to the people of Earth. It's also likely the mob would have torn her apart were it not for the cultist acting as their leader insisting that Remina has to die via "ritual," likely just to prolong her agony. | |

Informed Ability: Remina (the person) becomes famous because of her association with Planet Remina. She (reluctantly) uses the fame to become a famous idol. It's never made clear what she does beyond standing on a stage/in front of cameras and looking pretty. It's possible people are paying to see precisely that, making her career An Aesop about the insanity of fandom, or something. | |

| Remina (Manga) / int_cd3527d9 | comment |
Negative Space Wedgie: Planet Remina came to our region of space through a wormhole, therefore proving the phenomenon's existence. Not that such a breakthrough in astrophysics actually helps anyone, considering the fact that they didn't have a chance to record or study the phenomenon... | |

Nothing Is Scarier | |
| Remina (Manga) / int_cdfe12c3 | comment |
Nothing Is Scarier: Of the many, many deaths in this story, only the real fate of the Mineichi family isn't shown. Stranded on planet Remina after fleeing there to try and escape the in-progress apocalypse, they're lured to what appears to be a surviving astronaut from earlier but is actually a tentacle attached to the planet, which quickly reveals itself and the last we see of the Mineichis is them screaming at it in terror. We don't see what the tentacle actually does to them, all we know is that they are screwed. | |

Sci-Fi Writers Have No Sense of Scale | |
| Remina (Manga) / int_d525f857 | comment |
Sci-Fi Writers Have No Sense of Scale: How does a Jupiter-sized organism form and not crush itself from its own gravity? There's a reason solid planets don't form that large—they would destroy themselves from their own gravity. Even though it's actually nowhere near Jupiter size. Further, how does the Hellstar travel faster than light, let alone do so without killing itself? How does it withstand the vacuum of space, especially its gigantic, sensitive eyes, or its tongue? Lastly, how does it eat a planet like Earth or Jupiter without killing itself from the extreme heat, pressures, gasses and solids, radioactive material, and everything else from what it eats? All those questions were asked inside the story by the scientists who discovered and observed it. Nobody knows. They did say it was from another universe, maybe it operates by different physics. Or...y'know... | |

"Ray of Hope" Ending | |
| Remina (Manga) / int_d73e0f7f | comment |
"Ray of Hope" Ending: In one of the more hopeful endings to a Junji Ito work, the manga ends with Earth being eaten, but Remina, the hobo, and a few others somehow managing to survive (albeit stuck in a tiny bomb shelter drifting into the depths of space). Remina herself is pessimistic about their odds of survival, but the hobo muses that since it was already a miracle that they managed to survive all the preceding insanity, another miracle occurring before all their supplies runs out in a year wouldn't be out of the question. | |

Red Herring: It's implied that one of the astronauts that land on Planet Remina is the long-lost son of the Mineichi family, who dreamed of becoming a astronaut and ran away from home after his father forbade it. He's not, the son is actually The Hobo, who helped the human Remina to escape from the cultists. | |

When they end up in space, the hobo's knowledge from his astronaut days promise to come in handy. | |

The Scapegoat | |
| Remina (Manga) / int_dc8ba6d5 | comment |
The Scapegoat: The hobo explains that this is why the people have latched onto the idea that Remina the person is responsible for Remina the demon planet threatening the Earth, and that killing her will make it stop. They can't accept that they're going to die and there's nothing they can do to stop it. They can't accept that what's going to kill them is some vast unknowable thing for no great reason other that it sees them as food. They target Remina for having the monster named after her because they're trying to find something, anything that they can do that might save them. As the hobo puts it, it's the desperation to survive that causes them to scapegoat her. | |

Hate Sink: In-universe, human Remina is turned into one by those who blame her for planet Remina's appearance. From a meta-perspective, the leader of the cultists who keeps compelling everyone else to kill Remina is the largest one, especially after he's revealed to be Goda, who took Remina's rejection of him as an excuse to kill her, though there are certainly others such as the rich elite who attempt to escape the destruction of Earth by fleeing to planet Remina. | |
