Sword Devil
Not a hot take to call this Misumi’s best looking I’m sure
Idk I just didn’t connect with this on any level except the visuals
But it wasn’t anywhere near like actually bad
Just clunky maybe ? Forced ?
Ichikawa is amazing as always but otherwise this just feels like standard Misumi
Cutting narrative corners and stuff lowk and piecing together whatever he gets at the end
That’s how it feels sometimes anyway
The look of this thing is worth checking it out for alone tho
Rare to see a chanbara feel so natural and grounded I think
I’ve never seen skin show up like this before in this kind of story
It feels like it’s real like you could really trace peoples faces through the screen and feel any and every texture
Not just skin wise like with all the natural beauty on show too
The skin things a little weird
My bad
