@butoden I understood it as an outlet for the incredible amounts of aggression and violence pent up in the japanese culture. What takashi miike did with this film was bring realism back to death and the katana, which despite the fantasy depictions of sword slashers is still understood to be "really fucking deadly".
The action scenes are amazing and surreal. But some of the content is questionable, a woman pulls a sword out of her vagina (what the hell is that?). However this film is worth viewing, it seems more like a visual sketchpad of ideas for director Takeshi Miike.
やっぱり映画の中では一番好きかも…
続編みたいなの出してもらいたいですけどこれはこれで一回で終わってしまうからいいんでしょうね…

Aw, you forgot the duel where they both die and then he gets back up again like 30 seconds later.

Great movie!
You'll love it or you'll hate it,no middle way,but it's a must-see for everyone.
It needs some knowledge about eastern religious concepts (or some research afterward) to fully understand its symbolism.
