Reception
Mark Schilling of The Japan Times stated that "There is not a dull moment in the film." but also that there was "unfortunately, not much in the way of real thrills or laughs, which "The Seven Samurai" and "Yojimbo"." and that "One day, maybe, Nakano will get around to filming a movie."[1]
gollark: While I could make the actual code check user agent headers, it would then be significant work to make it actually generate reasonable alternate pages based on this.
gollark: Also, I test without a nginx instance.
gollark: It is not "written for me". The webapp's architecture wouldn't work this way.
gollark: Denied.
gollark: It would be quite hard and no.
