A great fun martial arts adventure series set in medieval Japan. Pretty impressive camera tricks and special effects for early 60s tv, even though they seem a bit corny now, plus fabulous and even occasionally convincing martial arts fighting. The English voice dubbed version was a big hit in Australia in the 60s where it was renamed "The Samurai".
It is in this version that it has become available on DVD. Please let me know if you have any info on where the original Japanese is available
