Exciting trouble
kosmasp17 June 2021
The very first time we see our female lead ... we can tell she is trouble. It's not that our main male character is perfect or anything either. But if you go on the journey with them (and other very depraved people as I reckon many will call them), you know it's going to be anything but boring.

You don't have to agree with the actions or reactions of the characters ... biting, kicking people off ... teasing to the point of driving a person crazy ... those are all things that I would not consider to be polite ... but that is the spark ... that is the danger ... and that is the way that will lead to ... well a climactic ending! Pun very much intended. Just be sure to not be prude ... I mean if you are, you probably know, because this is very sexual to say the least .... and in a way very destructive (literally and metaphorically speaking) ... but who could resist (her)?

A pretty simple story told with artistic excellence and a LOT of nudity.

Warning: Spoilers
Kosuke used to be a womanizer and that's why he moved away and started living alone in the woods, to have some time to himself and contemplate.

The film uses tiger and dog as opposite symbols, the dog being represented by Shiori as a person who has sex anyone they want and is open and free, the tiger isn't represented by any particular person but by the environment Kosuke lives in, he used to be a dog but now he's in search of his inner tiger, "The lord of the forest. It's not a wild dog, it's from a greater realm.", he says as he gazes upon the woods with wonder in his eyes.

Tigers are solitary animals but dogs are in packs, that's why at the end we hear multiple dog howls and one tiger roar. It makes sense from a storytelling point of view, there has to be more than one person for the sex to start! Shiori, the wild dog goes around and turns other people into dogs, after that fateful night we see all the involved characters go nuts and keep having sex.

At first Kosuke looks down on her and disrespects her by calling her a stray dog, a name she will later put on display as if she's proud of it. Maybe she wanted to help him get out of his shell or maybe she was just doing everything based on her dog instincts, either way she ended up helping.

The author views sex as a therapeutic method, it helped that girl get over her past trauma and find the love of her life, at the end Kosuke's hut in the woods is in ruins and his time there is over, he can now go back a new person, a dog. She even leaves a note for him, playfully asking him "Who's the dog?". The girl was the hero of the story all along, forcefully healing people one by one, going even as far as rejecting Kosuke at first just so they could wait and have a wild long sex during which his hut breaks down.

At last, the tiger is captured and confined, and the dogs can prevail, Shiori is elsewhere probably saving others. The dogs start howling and the tiger gets in one last disapproving roar in vain.
