Original film—a Quentin Tarantino diptych about the fate of a failed bride—in the past of a professional killer, «Black Mamba"—and her bloody revenge against all her former friends and partners set in a Japanese-American backdrop.
The focus of the titles is on Japanese culture and aesthetics, which run like a «red thread» through the plot of both films.
The opening title sequences are constructed around imagery drawn from samurai art and Shinto symbolism.
primary graphic technique: the use of contrasting color blocks within the frame, mimicking a katana cross-section.
noise and intermittent movements create an 8-bit retro effect, while flat layers and minimalist vector animation reference origami art and the paper collage technique characteristic of Japan.
