About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a hard-hitting samurai revenge tale with nonstop battles, grim stakes, and a roaming-warrior vibe similar to Zatoichi; Not for you if you dislike intense violence or abrupt wrap-ups.

Pros: relentless action; colorful rivals; strong story drive | Cons: extreme violence; odd mystical touches; ending feels abrupt
