Plot summary

The blind masseuse is targeted by the leader of a powerful yakuza group while also fending off a jealous husband bent on revenge. Zatoichi tours Edo's underground via a rousing onsen fight scene, gambling houses and the gender-bending character of Umeji, before a final, flame-filled conflagration.

Upon trying to return home for some peace

Upon trying to return home for some peace and relaxation, Ichi discovers that the town has changed significantly in the three years he has been gone. This is the 21st film and offers some of the best swordplay yet, by Katsu of course but also Tatsuya Nakadai who delivers an impressive performance and who's swordplay is stellar. You can really tell from his finesse and confidence that he has much skill in real life as his many roles in various samurai films can attest to. The film itself is very much darker than the others and while still featuring some truly stunning battle scenes, really showcases a darker theme and how power and money can corrupt just about anyone.

Zatoichi comes across a fellow blind gangster, but

Zatoichi comes across a fellow blind gangster, but who has been nicknamed the Dark Imperial Lord and Boss of Bosses. The Dark Lord is on control of eight heads of gangster territories, and decides that Zatoichi must die because the plot demands it. What follows is a rather standard entry, with a woman trying to poison Ichi but ultimately failing to do so. When Ichi goes to gamble for her life, he falls into a wily fire based trap and defeats his enemies as usual. The action and story are not up to par this time, despite the amount of screen time the villains get. They simply don't have good motivation to kill Zatoichi, and the other samurai with a grudge has a rather unspectacular duel at the end as well. Zatoichi Goes to the Fire Festival simply burns out.

Another breakthrough in the Zatoichi franchise. Perhaps one

Another breakthrough in the Zatoichi franchise. Perhaps one of the most intruiging one. The story is completely out of the usual, Zatoichi gets to battle the head honcho of the yakuza. And yes he's blind. The villains also used different and interesting plans to kill Zatoichi this time. Even the villain samurai he battled is a tough one comparing to the previous bozos. Finally get to see Zatoichi on his knees, always thought he was indestructable. LOL.
