Japan's "Once Upon a Time"?

I'm not very familiar with it. Looking at the introduction, the image of this swordsman seems to be similar to the Japanese version of "Once Upon a Time", and has appeared on the movie screen many times.
Comparing the Chinese filming of Huang Feihong or Ip Man, there are still some differences between China and Japan in such folk roles of "eliminating violence and peace".
Both are influenced by traditional culture, and both have the moral sentiment of "helping the poor and the poor". As for China, some factors of "the great man of chivalry" will be added (including Di Renjie of Tsui Hark in the past two years, who also did not forget the temple). Such images in Japan obviously have some "abuse" elements, including rough teenagers, and the setting of the bloody killer turning back, which has a certain influence of the comic plot setting.
Reflected on film products, China is more atmospheric, and Japan is more refined.
