By far one of the best Zatoichi's films
Zatoichi’s Flashing Sword was the seventh film in the series. It has a dramatic start. First Zatoichi is being held prisoner by some Yakuza (gangsters) when he awakes and cuts up some flies with his sword. Then one of the men claims he shot Zatoichi with his rifle. Luckily the blindman is found by some peasants who care for him. There’s some comedy thrown in as well such as when Zatoichi is travelling and says he’ll buy some candy for some kids only to find out that there are about 15 of them. Zatoichi is mischievous as well such as when he doesn’t get paid for a message and dumps food all over the place as payback.<br /><br />The story is conventional Zatoichi fare with rival Yakuza gangs, a woman that needs saving and Zatoichi being the defender of the underdog.<br /><br />This is by far one of the best Zatoicihi’s from the 20 plus films that were put out. Right from the start the story is strong, the characters are well played, and the action at the end is top notch.<br />C
