Opening with a scene of war, and a war photographer, capturing the horrors of a man literally torn apart by bullets, giving the photographer a (Wingboner). It gives the opportunity for a monologue, telling the audience how the world has gone to (Apples). Cutting to modern day, the prime minister of Japan steps into the open, giving way for the hordes of photographers to capture his image. The man clearly looks down on his subject, and his career as paparazzi. A dancer performs ballet for the crowd, who were overjoyed with his performance, unlike the dancer. The dancer is startled to find a girl and her mother in his dressing room. The mother explains that the daughter had an appointment, hoping to apprentice under the dancer. Unsatisfied with the performance, claiming the girl was too stiff, the dancer, named Shirogane, proceeds to break the girl's arm. As the mother and daughter dart out, screaming, Shirogane receives a call from a Mr. Suitengu, asking for another dance. Back at the police station, Saiga, our photographer, is on the phone with a woman named Ginza, who bailed him out. She also gives him a tip on where to find a senator. As Saiga closes his car's door, we see the woman on the phone. She is a silver fox, pushing a drug dealer for money. A crooked cop with happy trigger fingers. The dancer reappears, in a rubber suit, and Shirogane seems to be rubber as well. He throws himself into a window, killing a senator and his guards. As Saiga pulls up to the hotel where his next photo will be, he sees Senator Okubo walking away from a hotel, who's policies differ greatly from the senator who Saiga is paying a visit to. Having a strange feeling, he rushes up to the hotel. First on scene of the murders, he captures the whole room with his lens. The cop, Ginza, comes in to investigate. It becomes evident that the two are in a physical relationship. Ginza commandeers his camera, and holds it as insurance, for Saiga to return. As Saiga leaves, he pulls out his spare camera. At Saiga's apartment, his neighbor Bob is in tears, for his boyfriend has been cheating, Saiga says goodnight. The next morning, Saiga is speaking to the head of a prominent newspaper. After discussing the case, which has high profile murders, the chief places Saiga as lead photographer. The chief conveys rumors of a secret club for the ultra rich, called the Roppongi club. Believed to run the club is Choji Suitengu, right hand man of the Tennozu group, an all aspect business interest run by Shienshen Tennozu. Later, from a local bar, Saiga watches aforementioned Senator Okubo, following him, Saiga finds the underground club. He overtakes Okubo, and sneaks in. Inside the walls of the club, Saiga sees the most perverse acts imaginable being performed, and is disgusted. Catching a glimpse of Suitengu, he gives chase, but becomes quickly lost. He finds his way into a chamber, where Choji is speaking. Words of glutton are spoken, and a girl descends from the ceiling. Mesmerized, Saiga, takes a picture. Taking the photo gets the main character discovered. He is captured and brought to the stage, where the goddess from above stands. The goddess kisses Saiga. Suitengu orders death to the photographer, and the guards put two large machete's into Saiga. Until next time
