About
You’ll probably like this if you want a high-energy Warring States adventure with big set-piece battles and strong ambition-and-loyalty themes; Not for you if you dislike overacting or feel a fast pace leaves story details behind, especially compared with Rurouni Kenshin: Final Chapter Part I - The Final or Inuyashiki.
Pros: thrilling battles; strong action; engaging period vibe | Cons: some fights lack tension; over-the-top acting; fast pacing gaps
