I watched this movie with emotion, another movie that touched my heart, even though I am a Chinese. In order to become stronger, Japan would not hesitate to abandon its traditions, and even its fine traditions, just to become stronger. Now I know why Japan was so strong during World War II.
In the end, the samurai wielded their sabers and rushed towards the completely westernized devils. The picture really made me unbearable. The wheel of history cannot be reversed, and the era of cold weapons is over. The decline of the samurai era represents the end of an era. In the end, all devils paid tribute to the warriors who died on the battlefield. The warriors also contributed to the strengthening of Japan. Without their sacrifices, there would be no modern and powerful Japan. In fact, for the warriors, it is very glorious for the warriors to die on the battlefield. The devil is the devil, a person who gave up the samurai spirit in order to become stronger.
When the Japanese soldier with the gun forced the samurai to put down the sword, I was moved by it. Even for modernization, there is no need to completely obliterate the samurai culture. The decline of the samurai spirit also represents the birth of Japanese militarism. From samurai to devils, this is the price of becoming stronger. There is also a line in the whole play that makes me remember deeply, "I am sorry for your husband", "He does his duty, you do your duty, everyone is right, I accept your apology." Maybe it is culturally different, but also It's hard to understand them.
