Zatoichi is pretty much a legend by now. Every fucker in every village has heard of him. Some people still don't learn and they try to cross him. Here, our blind masseur gets interrupted by a poor soul and asks him if he can deliver a letter to this girl in a village. Zatoichi does so. At that village, everyone is getting ready for the new year celebration. Zatoichi stays there but then trouble comes to him. Love the gambling scenes. Love the fights towards the end. It seems Zatoichi is faster than ever before. The snow fight scene is classic.
Overall, this was pretty good. Another Zatoichi movie, another journey. Loving this character.
