There is no turning back.
Format: SAMURAI 7
As the broadcast series Samurai 7 (2004) reaches its midpoint, the fight between the peasant-farmers of Kanna village and the oppressive bandits begins in earnest. The conflict pits drawn characters armed with swords and bows against CG mecha laden with guns, and the results are predictably one-sided. The samurai leap onto the gigantic machines and cut through metal plating with well-aimed thrusts and slashes; the peasants take out the lesser robots with fire-arrows. Director Toshifumi Takizawa stages the fight scenes competently, but his work lacks the panache of Kazuhiro Furuhashi's martial choreography in Rurouni Kenshin. In Seven Samurai, Akira Kurosawa recounted a small-scale conflict involving equally desperate farmers, warriors, and thugs. After the bandits have been defeated in Samurai 7, Ukyo and the evil merchants in the capital still have to be dealt with.
