Mukoubuchi 4: High Stakes Mahjong Legend – Mahjong Parlor Killer

A pair of Kansai-region underground mahjong hustlers begin storming Tokyo’s local mahjong parlors, scamming unsuspecting players with clever cheating techniques. One of their victims, Yasunaga Ban (played by pro-wrestler Takada Nobuhiko), is the owner of a mahjong parlor. Seeking revenge, he challenges them to a high-stakes match—but loses. As he's about to give up, a mysterious and feared man known only as “The Outsider” (Mukoubuchi), KAI (played by Yoshihiko Hakamada), enters the scene. Kai immediately sees through the Kansai duo's tricks and defeats them without mercy. However, a larger threat looms when a powerful figure from Kansai, Katsuta, comes to Tokyo, escalating the conflict to a new level of tension.

Yusuke Tanaka, who served as the overall director of the tour, was in charge of everything from video direction to product design for this video production. The concept of the live performance is literally projected onto the product.

A sudden notice of succession from the Hasekai arrived from the Marugami-kai. Himuro (Yasukaze Motomiya) and Tamura (Yoshiyuki Yamaguchi) were furious and stormed into the ceremony. Mita (Shun Sugata) saw this as a declaration of war and vowed decisive action. The police, led by Matsumiya (Gento Hongo), ramped up surveillance on the rising tension between the Kyowakai and Marugami-kai, leading to the arrest of Teru (Yutaka Kyan) and Saito (Katsuya), escalating the crisis. Amid rising tension in the Kyowakai, Nakajima (Yoshimi Tachi) sought revenge for Shoji’s death. Concerned about Minami (Rin Asuka) due to Reiko’s (Reira Arai) involvement, Himuro and the others were encouraged by Kawata (Hitoshi Ozawa) to proceed.

Words Fly Back to the Black Earth

A calling inhabits the blank pages, unfolding a secret writing of hers. The unseen written traces seep from the murmuring land, pushing through fragmented voices to become new forms, beings made material. Framed as a dialogue with my grandmother, this film explores an alternative form of personal writing by Chinese women in political shifts, absent and abundant. The 'blank' becomes an image, carrying a search for agency; of land transformed and of women unheard. By breaking down linguistic structures, the film opens a space for imagining, reading, and performing, allowing for emergence.
