This phenomenon can happen to a number of things, from the entire area, to individual objects.
It is possible to trigger this even more than once.
Triggers
- Interacting with the elderly woman can sometimes cause all of Kyoto to stretch upwards.
- In Monument Park, sometimes looking up at the Zeppelin can cause the whole area to slowly stretch upwards. This can happen more than once, which makes everything very tall.
- When exploring the Violence District, the whole area can suddenly stretch upwards. It's still unknown what causes this. Like in Monument Park, this can happen more than once, which results in a double stretch.
- Interacting with the ghosts in the Violence District can cause the whole area to slowly stretch downwards, eventually flattening.
- Objects like the Doubleface, Girl, and Buddha Statue can appear stretched out in some dreams.
- The Bunny can appear stretched in the Happy Town.
Linking
Linking with stretched objects may take longer due to the framerate slowing down, but is no different.
