manfromplanetx An excellent ninkyo eiga the setting is Osaka, 1907. Honourable and loyal Asajiro lives in a discordant social environment, he has a strong noble desire to maintain the clean and respected business reputation of his clan. When his boss is incapacitated Asajiro and his group are confronted with serious internal & external challenges... Director Tai Kato wonderful cinematic style builds a gripping tale, with richly drawn characters, the outstanding story is multi faceted, one of loyalty, honour, romance, and rivalry. Action packed, there is much blood drawn in revenge... Highly Recommended.
