![]() Miike gets more sick, gross, disturbing, etc. I don't see how anyone can find this movie "tame" considering the violence, rape scenes, etc. Also, Jiji being hanged similar to a gallows setting sort of makes it seem like a "judgment" or "justice" killing so again, you're left to assume it is the gunman's son out for revenge. At the end, when Jiji is hanging from the tree, what (I assume) is the same crow flies by or perches on the tree (I forget exactly). You see the boy feeding a crow in one scene of the movie (crows being bringers of death in mythology) so you're lead to believe he's harboring a need to kill someone. The boy at the end I thought was supposed to be the son of the gunman. Kakihara was so dissapointed with Ichi that he then "imagined" being killed by Ichi committing suicide later by throwing himself off the roof (which explains why he has no scar on his forehead). I haven't seen Ichi the Killer in awhile, so the roof scene is still kind of blurry to me (in remembering the consecutive order of the scenes particularly) but IIRC, Kakihara actually killed Ichi, then stuck the pins in his ears so he wouldn't have to hear how pitiful Ichi's crying was. ![]()
