The 20th film in the Zatoichi saga, Zatoichi

The 20th film in the Zatoichi saga, Zatoichi Meets Yojimbo is one of the most well known and features a great performance from the legendary Toshiro Mifune as Yojimbo (bodyguard). Katsu and Mifune play off each other brilliantly and are what really helps keep the film entertaining over it's nearly 2 hour running time, the longest in the long running series. The film is numerous in it's twists and turns and there are many characters and sidestories to keep track of as well, so while tedious to keep track of at times, there is still a lot to like here. Both the dialogue and battle sequences were well done and both hilarious and serious in parts, which helped with the uneven script. Still Zatoichi Meets Yojimbo is a good film overall and Mifune makes for a great contrast to Ichi and delivers as usual.

A complex plot, a variation on the original

A complex plot, a variation on the original Yojimbo but with a heavy Zatoichi treatment... ...one thing that tantalizes me is the word "monster" as it was used by the character Yojimbo to describe Zatoichi, especially late in the film, per the subtitles. The spoken word *sounded* phonetically like "bogeyman" to me, but I can't verify it. Can a Japanese speaker help with this? Thanks!
