“In Japan, violence isn't as controversial as it is in the West.” — Takashi Miike Quote

“In Japan, violence isn't as controversial as it is in the West.”

“Sometimes it's good to know there are limits.”

“I have three kids. Now they're all grown up, but when they were little, every time I would start a new project, they would say, 'So dad, are you making a movie we can watch or one we cannot watch?' That's the kind of stuff they would ask. People around me - family and friends - usually know when to watch and when not to watch.”

“I always feel that comedy, at its best, tackles issues that are controversial, polarizing, volatile, and sheds light onto those issues and the people involved.”

“There's no point in dwelling on the controversies created by others.”

“I think that as I continue to write, my writing I hope will become more controversial and more provocative.”
