The protagonist Kenshin is a murderous swordsman in the end of the era. After the Meiji Restoration, in order to redeem yesterday's sins, he took a reverse-edged sword and vowed not to kill. After he met Kamiya Kaoru, he lived in seclusion in the dojo, but from time to time he took up the responsibility of eliminating violence and An Liang, saving the world with the sword in his hand. It's one of the best action movies I've ever seen, it's heart-warming, but it makes you feel warm with love.
The most unforgettable thing in the whole film is the dojo of Kamiya Living Heart Flow. Although the courtyard is small, it is full of a kind of silent beauty. Japan is a small island country, but it is able to discover the beauty of things themselves as much as possible. Flower art, kendo, karate, the word concentration itself is a way, not a technique. The Japanese like to take things to the extreme, even in the porn industry. This is a terrifying spiritual pursuit. Once upon a time, the Japanese admired Chinese culture, and they still retain the various customs of the Tang Dynasty. Even during the Warring States Period, the famous people who entered Kyoto to meet the emperor were called "Shangluo (Luoyang)", and a cultural revolution will The Confucian culture and various cultural relics in mainland China have been completely destroyed, and only some of the homeland features are preserved in Taiwan.
What kind of life is full of happiness, look at this movie. There are no delicacies of mountains and seas, no wealth and glory, only crude tea and light rice, and a glass of sake. After living in a turbulent era, living in a small courtyard with my favorite woman and like-minded friends, feeling the summer flowers and winter snow, and pursuing the simple way, it seems that time will stop.
