Pretty written

A movie whose impact far exceeds the plot in my heart.

The plot seems to be old-fashioned today, I don’t know if it was new at the time: the hero saves the beauty, the life in danger conforms to the guess that only one can live, the antagonism between the ninja and the samurai, the fight from the younger brother to the boss, the villain The more beautiful the more poisonous, the more injustices are reported.

After watching the whole film, I saw more hatred than I am worthy of my conscience. There is hatred because of love and hate because of hate. It is hatred everywhere. Derived from the entanglement of interests and conscience, the protagonist’s hatred of the villain gives rise to revenge, which creates the hatred of the protagonist. If you can’t love it, you will hate it. The love piled up by self-esteem, jealousy and sarcastic use is the best soil for gestating hatred. After being rejected, the world will become peaceful. Perhaps it can’t be called love. The film’s emotional lines for Lily Pills and Pomegranates are also compared. Rough (after all, it’s not the protagonist’s subject of this film, or kills)

The three important female characters appearing in the film have varying degrees of viciousness. The beautiful traps are tempting and deep, but the traps can hurt themselves while at the same time.

The picture is violent enough. The cold swords and swords fought with bare hands that could be regarded as warm, and the intermittent limbs and blood cascades filled up like a magical purgatory.

Ninja Scroll quotes

  • Jubei: Gemma! Did you miss the flames of hell? Is that why you came here?

    Lord Himuro Gemma: So it's you, Jubei. I should've finished you off myself when I had the opportunity.

    Jubei: I thought rats usually leave a sinking ship.

    Lord Himuro Gemma: Heh! I suppose you want to avenge that ninja girl, Kagero. She's nothing compared to what I'm going to lose with this ship.

    Jubei: Prepare to lose your life as well!

  • Jubei: [awakens] Uh! Gemma...!

    [winces and nurses his injured arm]

    Kagero: I'm sorry.

    Jubei: Forget about it. Haven't the retainers of the castle taken some action yet?

    Kagero: They've had two hours.

    Jubei: Hmm. I see.

    Kagero: You knew it was a trap, and yet you still came to rescue me. Why did you do that? Why risk your life to save me?

    Jubei: Because we're comrades.

    Kagero: Comrades?

    Jubei: Why not? We've helped each other out many times since we met yesterday. You're my comrade.

    [Jubei gets up to leave. Kagero follows him]

    Jubei: Stay here. The Mochizuki clan has already backed out of this. You mission here is completed.

    Kagero: I'm not done yet. I still have a debt that I owe to you.

    Jubei: You can pay it back later.

    Jubei: Not if you're dead, ninja Jubei! I'll take care of this right now!

    [takes off her clothes]

    Jubei: What are you doing?

    Kagero: The old man told me how to do it - counteract the poison. "Kill poison with poison", he said. He said, if you make love to me, you'll be free from poison. Mine will destroy it... so you must take me now.

    [Jubei embraces Kagero, but leaves when he hears the Shogun of the Dark's ship nearby]

    Kagero: What are you doing? You'll die unless you take me! Why not? Wait, Jubei!

    [cries]
