Plot hole: Ami's arm was sliced off, and the wound went untreated (you can tell it was not cauterized in later scenes) for a number of hours before it was stitched up. All this time, we see her loosing ludicrous amounts of blood. Yet, Miki looses her foot, and dies of blood loss only a few minutes later, despite her wound and blood loss being much less severe than Ami's. An inconsistency in the style done solely for dramatic purposes.
The Machine Girl (2008)
1 plot hole
Directed by: Noboru Iguchi
Starring: Asami, Honoka, Kentaro Shimazu, Minase Yashiro
Continuity mistake: When Miki's husband is killed by the shuriken (large throwing stars), they enter and exit his body vertically (you see them embed themselves into the wall vertically), yet when he falls to pieces, the cuts are all horizontal.
Question: I don't fully understand how Ryugi dies. He simply runs away after the gun ejects itself and is impaled by about a half-dozen rods. What happened and where did the rods come from? Are they the gun-barrels?

Answer: I will have to answer my question after another viewing of the film. The gun is shattered by the "special" bullets that Miki gave to Ami, which were too powerful, causing the gun to fragment when it was yanked off her arm. The gun barrels fall of and impale Ryugi.
