It looks great and i was digging it up until the last act of the film where it felt like they we're kinda reaching for a 90 min runtime.
I like the characters(at least most of them)

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A meditative portrait of a man clawing toward respectability through martial discipline and the sword, shot with painterly compositions that treat the Edo period landscape as almost a character itself.
