What if it's just the first Saw movie?

No, seriously. What if it's just Saw? What if the original 4chan poster was just hopped up on anesthetics from a dentist trip or whatever, and just saw the first Saw movie while half awake? I'm not saying this is the definitive 100% answer, but something similar happened with the evil farming game. The basic premise of being trapped in a bathroom with no escape and doing horrible things to yourself lines up. It could be possible that the 4channer saw that and some anime, and the two blended together, for some reason.

There was a guy posting a bunch of dumb theory troll posts here semi-recently.

I still believe this guy actually saw something else and his memories mixed with the scene from this movie. Still, clockman was considered an urban legend and it ended up being real, difference is that a huge studio made it, making it slightly easier to find.

No japanese person tried to search around those old anime rental places in Japan?

Next time I’m there I hope to look around rental shops and some obscure places, which at the very least could provide leads. Staff at those places see a LOT of stuff go in and out, so I’d say it isn’t a lost cause.

Perhaps it is possible, but tbh, only a few are actually searching for the thing and things get debunked for nearly no reason and with little proof. When we get possible leads, it dies down after a couple of days and nothing else follows. Probably its the only hope of finding it.

then what about the others who claim they also seen it? and not all of them are fakes. there was a guy who made a feedback video or review, whatever it was, to lady in red or whatever that s called that s similar to saki sanobashi and he said it was inspired by an anime, or at least something about an anime. so there also are people who confirmed something of it, which are trustworthy

who are these people what is the review... as far as i know there isn't much evidence for it, the man who made the video could have been trolling or something too if it was made after the 4chan post, the only real way to confirm that there's a chance of it existing is if anyone has mentioned something extremely similar or outright mentioned ''saki sanobashi'' or whatever the tile actually is before the 4chan post

i really don t remember who the guy who made the review is, i saw it in a youtube video about go for a punch/saki sanobashi. idk what the movie was, it was about a woman wearing a white dress and she was in the bathroom and she killed herself if i remember right. something with lady in blood, lady in red, lady in pool of blood, i don t remember the movie name. and as i said in that comm a youtuber made a review about it and while i didn t see this part bcs i didn t watch the video, the guy who made the video about saki sanobashi (he s a big youtuber and he showed subs from reddit too discussing it, a lot of leads which were found, he was serious, he was also trying to help in finding saki sanobashi) said the guy confirmed it has something to do with an anime.
