At the beginning of the movie, Zato City walked through the fields where four farmers wielded their hoes to work, and at the end, the Shinyoshi family built wooden houses. The soundtrack and editing are breathtaking. Sword fighting scenes use static braking, fast fights slow, one move to control the enemy, clean and neat, compared with Chinese martial arts film fighting is eternal procrastination. By the way, except for He Ping's "Swordsmen in Shuangqi Town". Suddenly it occurred to me that "Swordsmen in Shuangqi Town" and "Zatoushi" are really similar. Perhaps this wonderful place is the overlap and origin between Chinese chivalrous tradition and Japanese Bushido.
