        Araki Mataemon: Jubei, it is only to kill you that I have come back to life. Hiding behind your name, living idly from day to day ... How will the third generation of Yagyu fare in a real fight, I wonder?

      good graphics for what seems to be a low budget movie
      if you're the person who likes watching the Japanese films with lots of fighting and absolutely no plot, this could be for you. There is plot, a very simple one. But ultimately its just one of those Japanese films about war.

      So watch this movie if you don't care about plots, but rather for entertainment. I watched this movie because I am not a critic. I like to be entertained.

      If you like boring movies with intelligent plots, why are even reading this.

      Overall, an entertaining movie with good CG, simple plot, nice samurai fighting, and great nudity.
