The Sword of Doom
DirectorKihachi Okamoto
“The sword is the soul. Study the soul to know the sword. Evil mind, evil sword.”
Ryunosuke, a gifted swordsman plying his trade during the turbulent final days of Shogunate rule, has no moral code and kills without remorse. It’s a way of life that leads to madness.
