"I'm happy just looking at paintings."

The world before Kano understood the beauty of Tchaikovsky's music was a cruel one. She said she often wrote him letters at a cafe, so he wanted to try it himself. Yes, he could fake normal, drinking coffee and listening to classical music. It's an easy thing to do. But the truth remains that the discrepancy between Yoko's world and his was too much. His gaze was always uncertain and anguish; the patterns of his old life were back, as though they were stuck in a Sisyphean loop.

Excellent framing technique and the choice of classical music, as well as an oyabun that loved paintings, makes it unusual setting of both beauty and macabre.
