The Denkikan (電気館) was the first dedicated movie theater in Japan. Originally a hall built in Asakusa's Rokku theater district to present spectacles featuring electricity ("denki" in Japanese), it was converted into a movie theater in October 1903 by Yoshizawa Shōten, the most successful of the film companies at the time. Featuring benshi such as Saburo Somei, it quickly became the symbol of the new phenomenon of the motion pictures and many cinemas around Japan were later created that borrowed the name "Denkikan." It later became a Nikkatsu theater and then a Shochiku theater before finally closing in 1976. A historically accurate model of the theater is currently on display at the Edo-Tokyo Museum in Tokyo. It is also cited in Kaizo Hayashi's film To Sleep so as to Dream.

by: Amity AfflictionDon't you, think it's strange
How we speak to ourselves when everything is falling to pieces?
Like molten lead to water
We fall apart and fragment
Always tearing ourselves in two
And hiding from regret
Always tonight and never last night, baby
You know it's all we have to get us through
So fucking sure that this will never end
New friends, new days, new nights
We'll make it through
On my own I learnt to feel it, and together
We learnt to kill it
It's strange, how these thoughts and how they come together
And I want to kill it
And let it forever die
These things I need to grieve and then I grieve
And then start learning as tomorrow slips on by
Always tonight and never last night, baby
You know it's all we have to get us through
So fucking sure that this will never end
New friends, new days, new nights
We'll make it through
