I will definitely not give a high score to this kind of prejudice.

Yasuhiko Takiguchi's original work was released in 1958, around the time I guessed. In fact, the problem is not how the director of this film is, the key point is how the original work treats Bushido.
Mr. Takiguchi in 1958 criticized the hypocrisy of Bushido "face" with the ideological prejudice of his time. But the question is, is the man-eating monster in this story really Bushido?
Don't quote the plot. Brainwashed to say "from today's point of view" we're no better than the samurai in the show who don't fit history.

    Look at the old and the new at the same time. It must be said that the changes are too good. Rich and reasonable details make up all the defects of the old version. From highlighting Jinyun's popularity, other characters are blurred and flat, and each character is displayed in three-dimensional and vivid group portraits. Under the shadow of the samurai's way, glory, and face, holding the dead in his hands, there is no one in his eyes, no life, let alone sympathy. Miike's intention to change the title to "Yi Ming" is by no means superficial. I also broke my heart and intestines when Ying Taizhu had a caesarean section.

    With the dragon head and the phoenix tail, the memories in the middle section are even more lengthy. Add one star to Ying Tai & Mandao Hikaru~
