great. where can get a proper sub for this? thank you
@benebrux He's not a ronin. He's a lowest ranked (zato) masseur.
Looks like a good movie, thanks. Reminds me of Lone Wolf and Cub and also Blind Fury with Rutger Hower.
Wandering ronin arrives at a village looking for job and ends up helping poor people against bad men, for free. So, nothing new about the plot. Little more special effects, little less charming than old Zato Ichi short movies.
thank you for being granted
As a fan of the original, the quirkiness of this one threw me off at first but eventually grew to love it. Even the CG blood and swords.
Hey thank you kind soul who maintains and runs this site!! You have provided daily entertainment and variety. Cheers whoever you are. Cheers. Shiny.
