Origin of why we use the eggplant emoji

Warning: Spoilers
After feeling like there's a nap on its way from a late night and early morning I put this on thinking it'd be background noise but instead woke me up and made me share this IMDb link to my friends and socials.

As a documentary it does everything right except show us how things are currently for Nasubi (which I can do myself but still) and maybe other peoples whereabouts. Despite that the pacing, production value and story is something I don't think I've ever seen. Maybe if it was in the western world more people would know about this man and what he has been through, because it shocked me for a whole 15 months someone was subjugated to this treatment for entertainment and nobody thought to end it?? It's almost as if this was a real life episode of black mirror and the Japanese public just went along with it. Utter rage for the creator who called himself a "devil" but glad the ending is as bleak as it could've been.

Please watch and go on the emotional rollercoaster I went on, I'm going to find out what happened to those in this movie and now will remember him everytime I see the eggplant emoji being used.
