The scene in Kiyoshi Kurosawa's "Eyes of the Spider" (1998), in which Dankan accosts Sho Aokawa, a man who doesn't know/recognise him, on an outdoor bench, and half pettily, half coercively begs Aokawa to work for him, is supposed to be a tacitly tribute to a similar scene between Dankan and Takao Osawa at the end of Shinji Aoyama's film "Two Punks" (1996).

Q: Do you make change in the script while you're shooting?

A: Not very often. I make more changes during the editing. I even take out a whole scene. But in this film, in the scene when Boss Otani first appears, I made some changes. The song he sings is that of a banana vendor in Kita Kyushu. It was (Ryo) Ishibashi's idea.
