* WatchItForTheMeme: Aside from the interrogation rapings, the first movie is also known for having a training montage where Hanzo beats his giant dick with a stick and has sex with a bag of rice.

* AudienceAlienatingPremise: The movies are about a detective who rapes women to get information and is supposed to be the good guy. This alone destroyed any chance of the movies garnering any success in the west or [[ValuesDissonance even in the decades since it’s creation]], especially with the proliferation of the [=#MeToo=] movement.

Rape has never been seen as ok. Cut per the Thread


* ValuesDissonance: A rapist being portrayed positively is something you would never be able to get away with outside of Japan or even within Japan in modern times.

* TooBleakStoppedCaring: The main character is rapes people with no remorse making him just as bad, if not worse, than the criminals he puts away by default. This ultimately results in there being nobody to root for and no reason to care about what happens.

* TooBleakStoppedCaring: When your so-called "hero" is just as vile as the people he's up against, this is bound to happen.

* NotIfTheyEnjoyedItRationalization: Hanzo's rapes aren't portrayed as a form of torture (he has other tools for that), but as overwhelming the victims with so much pleasure that it's MoreThanMindControl and they tell him whatever he wants to know. Probably the only way that a protagonist ''who rapes people'' could be even remotely palatable, even taking ValuesDissonance into account.
