I like how they didn't hold back with the violence what with all the blood spurst and chopped off limbs. Chinese was good too compared to the usual Engrish but maybe that's just because I don't speak Chinese. Overall it was good.

Nothing really much to say. Style over substance taken to heart in this one, not the worst thing I've ever watched anyway. 4/10

The fights in this show were so visually pleasing and well animated especially the last one between no name and the foreigner.

I feel like i’ve seen a few movies like this one lol but everything else besides the story was great. Final fight was great too, I like how everyone else was dead, the only thing that mattered at that point was surviving. Even though I think he died at the end ☹️

This movie reminded me of Sekiro though so I like it even more

Disappointing. I didn't care for the story or any of the characters (couldn't even remember anyone's name at the end) and most of the action wasn't that impressive.

Maybe my eyes have gotten too lazy with age now, but I found the fights to be too quick; basically a flash of a sword and limbs flying. I appreciate all the blood & gore but I'd like a little more substance. Although not as grand, the pilot film had it right in that regard (clear, recognizable action as well as variety of moves). And fuck whoever decided on the shaky cam and obscene amount motion blur effects, they should not be any visual industry.

I'm also biased against adding do-nothing kids in what are essentially adult matters (like Deadpool 2 and the Harley Quinn movie). They are rarely interesting themselves and they slow things down too much with uninteresting scenes or forced drama (like the horse riding and, to a lesser extent, the dog) to score cheap brownie points. I get that he's part of Nanashi's redemption and no offense to the VA, but they could've written Kotarou out for the better.

Overall, it was like Big Trouble in Little China but without the cheesy good fun, and pales in comparison to other action-focused stuff like Ninja Scroll and Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust.

It has cool action and satisfying animation. The story is not the central focus and is mostly there just to lead in to action.
