Trivia The main characters who are amateur filmmakers watch a trailer they have made for their own film called "The Blood of Wolves", though they haven't actually made the movie itself yet, and never do. That was the working title of a movie later called Kenkichi (2012), that Sion Sono and Tak Sakaguchi were working on around the same time as this film. That film Kenkichi was also never made.
