Kawajiri's Film Aesthetics Embodiment

Kaia 2022-01-07 15:54:18

Yoshiaki Kawajiri is the author of the original character, script, and supervision of the movie. The aesthetic style before and after can be fully displayed.

Hirotsuji Kawasaki’s Kibashi card at the beginning of the article and the Fire Sea card at the end of the film show the tension of his original painting.

Hamazaki Hiroshi’s later performance style in "Life and Death of a Swordsman" can also be seen here, as quiet as a virgin, and the motion design of the action that is like a rabbit has the shadow of a chivalrous woman.

The film script is simple, and Zhang Che's revenge motif and some fighting scenes can also be seen.

As a digression, the later "Koga Ninja Stickers" borrowed many things from this, such as the immortal pharmacist, the ninja fighting technique, punching the fist through the wall, the poisonous beauty, and even the name is Yang Yan. .

(In addition, the voice of Yamadera Koichi is too attractive, which adds a lot of color to the characters, a feeling of samurai SPIKE-_-

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]
