“I find this episode better than the first.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eMore dark, more rebel. The ronin play by Raizo Ishikawa meet some truly bad people. The villains are so greedy and ambitious who just want them dead, but they are so human.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eRemember, we are in the sixties. At this time, contestation was in many movies. This one are very sarcastic. Good swordfight scenes.”
