Standout Aspects

Direction

Limosin's deadpan French eye on Tokyo chaos.

Cinematography

Shower scenes that are somehow tender, not creepy.

Acting

Hinano Yoshikawa's blank-faced obsession is perfect.

Best for:Solo: Late night when you're questioning your own terrible taste in men.·Date Night: If you want to test if they're down for weird.·Rewatch: To catch every Limosin visual gag you missed.
Heads up:Violence: Gun violence played for dark comedy, not graphic.·Triggers: Stalking romanticized as meet-cute.
