Zatoichi demonstrates why, despite being blind, he is not to be trifled with in The Tale of Zatoichi (1962), the first of 26 films in the series.

HOW TO DO KENJUTSU SWORD BLOCK IN A FIGHT

[akkator]

Enduring Blade Archetype: Fighter

Do you like that thing where a swordsman draws their sword, attacks, and sheaves it all in the blink of an eye. Only for their enemy to collapse in a pile of pieces 2 seconds later?

Well, the enduring blade is that.

Bladesworn

I hear sounds of distant thunder

Recollections in my head

I see fire, I smell sulfur

Shades of orange, shades of red

I feel nothing but the metal

I can taste the acrid smoke

I make haste to brace for impact

I prepare my killing stroke

I put pressure on the trigger

Distractions lost amidst the tide

I feel all the world aligning

Nowhere left to run or hide

I hear nothing but the thunder

I feel flame and force cascade

I see men reduced to corpses

As I sheathe the searing blade
