If you loved Suzuki=Bakudan, try Character
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Akira Nagai, and they both carry the cerebral, foreign gem, paranoid, slow burn mood tags, and they sit in Mystery / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Suzuki=Bakudan, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Character is
Snow falling, sketchbook open. A would-be manga artist lacks the killer instinct, until stumbling upon a murder scene. He copies the crime in panels. Success arrives, and so does the suspect. Nagai’s thriller echoes Kurosawa’s *High and Low*.
