When you realise that

In Akira's introduction she was bathed in blue lights

And in John's first scene in Osaka, he was bathed in red lights

Then in their last scene on the train, the lighting flickers between blue and red

Gosh, I love this movie to bits 😫❤️

“your relationship to john wick is no secret.”

“everything he touches dies”

“then you would be wise not to place your judgement on a man i’ve known longer than you’ve been alive.”

“you risk everything for him”

Hey @askjohnwick, where is the blind man?

the Shimazus

Alright I'm giving in and making a post because I'm having feels about Koji and Akira's relationship.

They have such a strong bond. I love their banter and their little inside jokes about his concierge passing messages to and from his daughter. Akira teases him about having good karma. They even do their hair the same way with those shiny black wraps okay!

Look at how cute they're smiling:

Seeing each other is the bright spot in their day, I bet.

Then Koji gets triggered by criticism of John and goes full Asian Dad and oh boy Akira knows she's in trouble—

But he has either read some parenting books or seen enough movies to know what happens when you fight with loved ones while facing imminent danger, and catches Akira before she runs off to let her know that he loves her: "Please tell my daughter that I look forward to our dinner."

Look at this smile.

She's still worried, still upset, but the smile just comes out and she can't help it cause it's her dad trying to make things up to her by being funny. (Thank you Rina Sawayama for your great acting.)

She gives him a lot of puppy eyed looks throughout their appearance and I think Koji knows that, despite being all grown up, she still needs him a lot.

Then comes the wonderful Koji-John reunion scene with its banging one-liners. Whenever it comes to John though, Koji goes off his rocker a bit and drops all his parenting books.

Akira is basically begging him not to confront the High Table and he hardly even LOOKS at her before throwing off her hold on him and stalking off. Oofs.

Even John knows that he has stirred up some shit between father and daughter and he's never going to get out of Akira's bad books:

When Koji says, "Stay with Mr Wick", it's really kind of ambiguous whether he's asking Akira to protect John (haha I know but the Osaka Continental has to protect its guests and Akira can handle herself) or John to protect Akira (refer to John's "oh shit" face above). The point is, Koji puts his two most important people together and trusts that they will help each other make it out alive.

On a side note, I'm still laughing at how Koji and John actually fistbump each other before they part.

Once John is out of the picture, Koji picks up his parenting books again:

But he's reading from the samurai edition unfortunately. Akira knows that he's going off to die but not even the best puppy eyes will stop Koji from following his code of honour to the end.

Koji does that firm shake of their clasped hands like: You got this, Akira. Complete confidence in her. Then it's that fight... that amazing fight...

"Just take care of your daughter," Caine says.

"I am."

What do you mean, "I am"?? *shakes Koji*

Option 1: he's showing her the honourable way to live and die. I appreciate the spirit but that's not really taking care of your daughter Koji!! Caine definitely disagrees.

Option 2: he knows he's a dead man. He's been shot, he's been stabbed, and he's in so much pain he can hardly talk. If Akira's going to make an escape, she needs to do it without dragging his dead weight with her. She's never going to leave him behind willingly though, if there's even the slightest chance she could save him—so he has to die.

And he does.

I think nothing needs to be said about the way she holds him.

Time to write another fix-it.

@askjohnwick , @shimazu-akira We can’t get the adjucator, not now atleast…we need to get Katia before she seizes my daughter within the Ruska Roma.

Im sorry for bringing you into this mess.

John Wick head cannons (I've ran out of roman numerals)

• Caine was a very political person in school. Whenever he got the chance, he'd sit in the front of his class, by Koji. Koji was known for being a neutral person politically. Caine would often yell very debatable political opinions to the teachers. Caine was proud. Caine is proud.

• Caine grew very caring for Akira. Like a father. Akira saw Caine like a father. Caine was a modest, and comedic man; that's what friends thought of him. Caine wouldn't take his job seriously, he did what he had to do to finish a job. Nothing more, and nothing less, but what he was expected to do. He only ever cared so much about the people he loved. All his true companions, he saw like his own blood; even if that's no longer the situation. Caine was morally dishonest and depraved, he would never let anyone harm the ones he loved, but himself. If he had any more of a choice, in a breath, would he have died for Koji. He loved Koji, and he was willing to raise Akira alongside Koji within a happy marriage, outside of their work. Caine wouldn't let anyone harm Akira, even if he never said it. Caine has secrets services and ties, and they all know to never harm Akira, or to face a consequence, not even Koji knows about.

• Koji survives the attack! He's just really good at acting. Enough so, he fooled the crowd. After the post credit scene, Koji appears by Akira; stopping her, and stopping Caine in his tracks. Koji explains the situation on how he got away, and seeing how they were both considered free from their old work, they would set out to be better people, together. They eventually got engaged together, and Caine truly could raise both Akira, and Mia, as his own. Koji was finally a man at peace; Akira knew it was for the best, when she looked into her father's eyes as the marriage was finalized, and saw the life light up in his eyes, as they were, as John used to say they were, before they joined that work. Though, Akira tried to block every unforgivable thing John brought upon them, Akira wouldn't be able to forget how John was the one who raised her often, even when the circumstances. Akira saw the light in her own father's eyes die, and even if it wasn't her fault, she was happy they were back; even if it was because of Caine.

Greetings, Mr. King. This is @shimazu-akira from the Osaka Continental. I am not up to date with everything happening on your side because I'm busy, but I hope London is doing well.

Ah, Ms. Shimazu I do hope your side of the world is also doing well. I’ve heard Osaka’s gone through…. A multitude of things from what my staff has been saying nowadays. But yes, there is nothing much going on other than the investigation of Mr. Shikalov earlier this morning.

"WE PUSHED IT EVEN FURTHER. WE WENT BOLDER, WITH DEEPER BLACK AND REALLY STRONG COLOR SEPARATION."

FILM: "John Wick: Chapter 4"

DIRECTOR: Chad Stahelski

SCREENPLAY: Shay Batten & Michael Finch

CINEMATOGRAPHY: Dan Laustsen

PRODUCTION DESIGN: Kevin Kavanaugh

SENIOR COLORIST: Jill Bogdanowicz

"Company 3 Senior Colorist Jill Bogdanowicz recently completed work grading "John Wick: Chapter 4." She has handled grading duties on the "John Wick" series since "Chapter 2," which also happened to be when Dan Laustsen joined as cinematographer. The two have collaborated with director Chad Stahelski on the stylized Keanu Reeves-starring series since. All "John Wick" films have impressed audiences with their strong, expressive looks, but Bogdanowicz says of "Chapter 4":

“We pushed it even further. We went bolder, with deeper blacks and really strong color separation.""

@shimazu-akira I have spoken to the office of operators and it seems that they can revoke the bounty, however it’s still being processed.

Shortly thereafter, you’re free. Happy hunting
