Ninomiya delivers very well in portraying The Lost Man's mental state and raw emotions, making his path to salvation satisfying to behold. The supporting cast also shines as they provide more context to this bizarre place— one that is perhaps situated between this world and the next.

Exit 8, the film that you are!

The adaptation mixes an unsettling loop through liminal space with a moving journey through guilt, despair and hope.

Found this traditional Chinese wedding dress displayed in a cafe I visited today for some reason. This one's apparently called the Fengguan xiapei (凤冠霞帔).

"Am I pretty?"

Give a neutral reply—you know the algorithm.

She's unsatisfied.

Her cold grip doesn't faze you.

Cloth mask pulled down, she smiles. "What about now?"

Laughable.

You pull yours down, too.

She's white as a sheet.

That's what she gets for pretending.

I became a hematologist because I thought it would grant me unlimited access to the blood bank.

I should have become a pathologist instead.

And now the actual pathologist is looking at me strangely as I all but snatch the blood bag from his hands while drooling.
