The radio club teacher question


What was up with that bloody tool in his room when he was on the computer?

Came here with the same question. Doesn't seem to make much sense.

That's a bit of cinema meta-humour from Miike. We believe that the bloody tool belongs to the radio club teacher, but if you pay attention it sits right between the previous shot and the next where we see Hatsumi in his cabin.
Intuitively our perception tells us to link it it to previous context, in reality it belongs to the sequence that follows.

I thought it was a red herring. I went back and rewatched that scene, and the book that he places in his bad.
