In fact, Yoji Yamada is not telling the story of a samurai in the early Meiji period, he is telling the story of himself, a story of himself who experienced the death of Japan's post-war economic revival and cultural death, a legend that he can draw a sword and injure the enemy but die in the secular world.
The former Japanese film masters have passed away one by one, and the rest are all lingering. In the reality driven by financial interests, what can you do? When a corpse floats across an icy river, what is right? what is wrong? When people ignore justice, morality, benevolence and righteousness and desperately pursue interests, what else can you ask for?
Draw your sword!
Maybe it can only be a dead end in the end!
We all have our own destiny,
may not be changed,
But you can choose how to deal with...
you or me
but
drop in the ocean
so-called politics
conspiracy
intrigue
normal life
under the wheel of history
crushed
trample
I can't save the world
You can't conquer that universe
where to go
follow the heart
Who the fuck doesn't want to be a samurai
Who is willing to be a farmer
life and death
contradiction
The blade pierces the throat
blood on the ground
Warmth wraps blood
Reality shatters dreams
everyone
have oneself
insurmountable destiny
The only thing we can do
is crying
still laugh
