This conclusion to the Zatoichi saga comes full circle and returns to several themes encountered in the first Zatoichi Monogatari. For instance, the first battle at night with a lantern that Ichi snuffs out, the famous dice hustle, the tormented Ronin that befriends Ichi, etc. Also, elements from other films are interwoven, such as Ichi falling into a hole on the side of the road because he doesn't trust the local children warning him.
One striking element of this story is Ichi's return to his childhood and dealing with his own separation from his mother. The aged, war-weary, and weather-beaten Ichi takes refuge in a country orphanage, and even takes an birds-egg expelled from the nest and nurtures the hatchling. As always though, Ichi's innocent nature is counterpoised to that of a shrewd and uncompromising swordsman. One moment Ichi is playing with children, the next he's carrying a decapitated head into a mob of yakuza--ostensibly to terrorize and dominate his opponents psychologically.
Unfortunately the editing of the theatrical release was very sloppy. Moreover, an awful 80's style song--with English lyrics!--was plugged in which completely destroyed the historical ambiance of the film. Needless to say these have all been fixed in this edit.

Minor tweaks to this version: adjusted the color to better approximate than did the previous version the early Daiei films; minor cuts to smooth transitions; various sound enhancements. Also, Hasshu's deputy now escapes with the gold strapped to his back after Ichi makes his appearance in the rolling coffin, while everyone is distracted--this makes more sense after all. Lastly, the version uploaded is 29 fps as opposed to the 24 fps of the previous upload.

Zatoichi
Zatoichi (座頭市, Zatōichi) is a fictional character featured in one of Japan's longest running series of films and a television series that are both set during the late Edo period (1830s and 1840s). The character, a blind masseur and blademaster, was created by novelist Kan Shimozawa.
This originally minor character was developed for the screen by Daiei Studios (now Kadokawa Pictures) and actor Shintaro Katsu, who created the screen version. A total of 26 films were made from 1962 to 1989. From 1974 to 1979, the television series Zatoichi was produced, starring Katsu and some of the same stars that appeared in the films. These were produced by Katsu Productions. One hundred episodes, with episodes 99 and 100 being a two-part story finale, were aired before the Zatoichi television series was cancelled.
Film number 17 of the original series was remade in America in 1990 (by TriStar Pictures) as Blind Fury, an action movie starring Rutger Hauer.
A 2003 film, Zatōichi, was directed by Takeshi Kitano who also starred as Zatōichi in the film. The film was awarded the Venice Film Festival's Silver Lion for Best Direction in 2003.

Takeshi Kitano
Takeshi Kitano (北野 武, Kitano Takeshi, born 18 January 1947) is a Japanese comedian, television personality, director, actor, author, and screenwriter. While he is known primarily as a comedian and TV host in his native Japan, abroad he is known exclusively for his filmwork. With the exception of his works as a film director, he is known almost exclusively by the stagename Beat Takeshi (ビートたけし, Bīto Takeshi).
Kitano rose to prominence in the 1970s as one half of the comedy duo Two Beat, before going solo and becoming one of the three biggest comedians in the country. After several small acting roles, he made his directorial debut with 1989's Violent Cop and garnered international acclaim for Sonatine (1993). But he was not accepted as a director in Japan until Hana-bi won the Golden Lion in 1997.
He has received critical acclaim for his idiosyncratic cinematic work, winning numerous awards with Japanese film critic Nagaharu Yodogawa having once dubbed him "the true successor" to influential filmmaker Akira Kurosawa. Many of Kitano's films are dramas about yakuza gangsters or the police. Described by critics as using an acting style that is highly deadpan or a camera style that approaches near-stasis, Kitano often uses long takes where little appears to be happening, or editing that cuts immediately to the aftermath of an event. Many of his films express a bleak or nihilistic philosophy, but they are also filled with humor and affection for their characters.

Plot: Star Shintaro Katsu sits in the director's chair for this psychedelic and unremittingly bleak entry in the Zatoichi series, which is unlike any other in its grind-house grimness. A tale of innocence corrupted by sadistic, sleazy criminality, the film is propelled by Easy Rider-esque editing and a trippy seventies funk score by Kunihiko Murai.

Guest starring the legendary Tatsuya Nakadai as a ronin haunted by a traumatic past, and featuring an unforgettable nude swordfight in a bathhouse, this twenty-first entry in the series is a fan favorite.

Zatoichi's Nastiest Opponent
This is one of Ichi's best fights against the nastiest of villains, Yasaburo Kashiwazaki. Some of the series bad guys might have one good quality but not this thug. He's a black hearted creep & stone gangster played magnificently by Makoto Satô. Enjoy!

This is one of Ichi's best fights against the nastiest of villains, Yasaburo Kashiwazaki. Some of the series bad guys might have one good quality but not this thug. He's a black hearted creep & stone gangster played magnificently by Makoto Satô. Enjoy!

For English subtitles press the CC button above.
For a variety of notes on the edit press the Annotations button above.
This conclusion to the Zatoichi saga comes full circle and returns to several themes encountered in the first Zatoichi Monogatari. For instance, the first battle at night with a lantern that Ichi snuffs out, the famous dice hustle, the tormented Ronin that befriends Ichi, etc. Also, elements from other films are interwoven, such as Ichi falling into a hole on the side of the road because he doesn't trust the local children warning him.
One striking element of this story is Ichi's return to his childhood and dealing with his own separation from his mother. The aged, war-weary, and weather-beaten Ichi takes refuge in a country orphanage, and even takes an birds-egg expelled from the nest and nurtures the hatchling. As always though, Ichi's innocent nature is counterpoised to that of a shrewd and uncompromising swordsman. One moment Ichi is playing with children, the next he's carrying a decapitated head into a mob of yakuza--ostensibly to terrorize and dominate his opponents psychologically.
Unfortunately the editing of the theatrical release was very sloppy. Moreover, an awful 80's style song--with English lyrics!--was plugged in which completely destroyed the historical ambiance of the film. Needless to say these have all been fixed in this edit.
________________________________ _ _ _
Minor tweaks to this version: adjusted the color to better approximate than did the previous version the early Daiei films; minor cuts to smooth transitions; various sound enhancements. Also, Hasshu's deputy now escapes with the gold strapped to his back after Ichi makes his appearance in the rolling coffin, while everyone is distracted--this makes more sense after all. Lastly, the version uploaded is 29 fps as opposed to the 24 fps of the previous upload.

In Kitano's version, Zatôichi wanders into a town harassed by criminal gangs, and helps two geishas take revenge on the men who murdered their parents.

Zatoichi, Twin Perils
Zatoichi
[Lone Ninja:]
I tighten the darts more and more, I strike in the dark corridors
The fighting will start rip titans apart war is war
Slash and sever the long axe is menacing
It's wrath and terror we combat veterans
Ya'll back pedaling, we forward march
Harm and crack skeletons, you're in water with sharks
Mourn as we spell your doom we wasn't born
With a silver spoon you do us wrong and we'll seal
Your tomb, feel the gloom as you wander the maze
Demolish and slay tommorrow isn't promised today
Give honor and praise, I'm blindfold with katana blade
Die slow, with eyes closed I will clobber prey
Rob your grave, maraud and plunder
Conquer and raid, cuase shock and awe and wonder
We're roaring thunder, who applaud our elders
Head towards the bunkers or the fallout shelters
Plot and get blown to smithereens, we chopping we chopping your dome
With guillotine spill the beans, June Marx and Lone's the illest team
Fullfilling dreams or your squad is dying
Sparks is flying, the chilling screams are horrifying
Got the heart of a lion and the eye of an eagle
I'm the largest of giants I'll get violent and evil
You silent and peaceful, don't wage in battle
I'm brolic and lethal, go pray in the chapel
[June marx:]
Make plans I radiate scans throw on your raybans
Mind steady learning emerging straight out the wasteland
Shake hands on paid deficits slay effortless
Hunger made us constantly suffer became predators
Weaponless war terrorist raw battlin monstrous
Smuggle ammo within the shadow of the colossus
Cosmic waves buried deep in the caves, a lethal rage
Breathe deep release secrets with age indecent blades
Darts flying spark iron we clash the dark alliance
Spar tyrants raw words surpassing art and science
Horrifyin sound weapons blowing flesh opens
In a direction flowing like victims is breaststroking
Neck broken thrown in various ways deep in the summit
Seas of bodily fluids spray leaking from stomach
Preachers summon spells ward off hordes of demonic forces
Twin perils desecrating multi symbolic crosses
Losses taken june orchestrate doom with facial wounds
Catch me in the break room burning haze exhaling fumes
Mixtape biohazardous waste the rhyme unravel
Monumental statue I stab you with flying shrapnel
Pteoradactyl wingspan bring man to bended knee
