Black - Black Black can mean several things: Color or light Black can be defined as the absence of visible light. For example collapsed stars, which due to their intense gravity can neither reflect nor emit light, are called "black holes". Pigments that absorb light rather than reflect it back to your eye "look black." Conversely, the combination of all colors of light is called white. In terms of pigment, however, black is the combination of all (pigment) colors. If equal proportions of primary pigments are mixed, the result reflects little light and so is "black." This creates two opposite yet complementary definitions of black. Black is the lack of all colors of light, or the combination of all colors of pigment. See also Primary colors and Primary.

(In an example of the film's extremely black humor, when asked what he is doing, Kakihara responds nonchalantly, "Just a little torture, nothing special.") To make restitution, Kakihara slices.
