■ Primary Axis
- Entry: Mistaken removal
Reason: Death is treated not as destiny but as an administrative error that interrupts an unfinished life.
Related Film: Here Comes Mr. Jordan - Middle: Borrowed embodiment
Reason: The self continues while the body changes, forcing identity to survive through action rather than appearance.
Related Film: All of Me - Core: Life restored through purpose
Reason: The second chance becomes meaningful only when unfinished ambition is surpassed by relational and moral completion.

■ Secondary Axes
- Afterlife bureaucracy: The supernatural order becomes a flawed system that must be corrected through human insistence.
Related Film: A Matter of Life and Death - Repetition toward moral completion: Life grants another route until the person becomes worthy of the time returned.
