Meanwhile, Tsutaju asks Touseido Kisanji (Omi Toshinori) to write a new blue book. Kisanji is given special treatment by being allowed to stay at the brothel for several nights, so he starts writing, but after a while, Kisanji stops writing...
The trailer includes the line, "It was a mistake to be born in the first place!" and also displays the text, "Can pictures save the heart?"
