Master's work! The movie begins with Ryunosuke killing innocents indiscriminately. Following the development of the plot, we know that the reason he did this was to vent his anger and anger because his father told him to take into account various practical factors to fight "fake fists". Ryunosuke is a pure human being, and the one-shot-style stunt of judging timing from his martial arts through shadows is pure. In his eyes, there is no ethics of good and evil, only the pure victory and defeat of martial arts and the self-worth of winning after defeating others with the sword... However, the ultimate purity is often trapped in unavoidable selfishness... This makes me Think of Xiao Si in "Guling Street Teenage Murder Incident".. Their tragedy is the same. In addition, when Ryunosuke saw the swordsman played by Mifune showing his kung fu in the snow, he lost confidence in his martial arts. Personally, I think that he has seen the mind of a martial artist that he can never surpass... That is a realm that a selfish person can never achieve! In the end, Ryunosuke got his Karma and died under the humiliating sword of political struggle... He was farther and farther away from the purity he pursued.. He is no longer qualified to have an extreme and fair match with a master. Duel, there is no chance to use his "Sword of Silence" in the duel of masters. This movie really made for a very personal and intimate experience for me!
