According to Filmaffinity, the penultimate film –he’s currently finishing Tetsudon: The Kaiju Dream Match– by our beloved Nishimura from Tokyo Gore Police (2008) and Vampire Girl vs Frankenstein Girl (2009) belongs to the following sub-genres: Action. Comedy. Horror. Sci-fi. Extraterrestrials. Horror comedy. J-Horror. B series. Sequel. Gore. While we have absolutely no gripes with the list, it’s missing a few entries. We add Parasites. We add Apocalyptic catastrophe. We add Nippon meat offcuts (which is not the same as simple gore). We add Metal (not hurlant, but rather "shabby"). We add Mutant (impossible). We add Debt collector Japanese style. We add a pinch of Love and bikes. We add Geishas. We add the presence of the great Yoji Tanaka. Yes, he was in Kill Bill (2013-2014).
