Visited many Japanese cities during the course of work. 1964-2006. Have strong affection for Japanese culture, food, sports and friendship. Bought this whole series and viewed episode many times. I liked the small cities best.
That part where Zatoichi was in anguish after knowing he had just killed Sensei Hirate literally made me cry - it brought to light the reality of how sometimes fate can be so cruel … so very cruel. Sad. So very sad.
True. However Hirate was a dead man walking, Hirate knew this and wanted to die at the hands of someone with immense skill, this being the blind Swordsman Zatoichi, his friend, his only friend. Japan is a very unique place with a unique history. Warriors are an odd lot.
So sad, Sensei Hirate smiled when he found Ichi on the bridge. As if he is ready and eager to die to escape his ailing body. Even sadder, their conversation on the bridge actually in earnest between friends, not some made up words.
Not so rare amongst warriors, but in this era of humanity, true warriors are quite rare. Crossing blades was not personal, 2 professionals doing their jobs. It's bizarre to people who are not warriors but warriors it's not strange at all. The US Marines learned the heart of Imperial Japanese warriors and when August 1945 came, US Marines largely had immense respect for Japanese soldiers, they did not give up easy, and threw their lives away in a heartbeat for combat for some, others just saw orders.
I remember seeing movies featuring the blind samurai when I was in college some 60 years ago. Wonderful cinematography. I’ll watch everything in this channel.
I just bought the Criterion Collection BD Boxset Of Zatoichi The Blind Swordsman. It's truly a wonderful series, especially this 1st film Tale Of Zatoichi
32:34 one of the few times when Katsu was filmed looking at the person he was speaking to. Later he did a good job of only showing the whites of his eyes.
I spent the night watching what I was able to watch while of these Fantastic Zatoichi Movies while in Tokyo way back in 1973. Since then I have cherished each moment of rewatching everyone that I can find. It is a legend now as more and more people try to copy what he has created. So thank you and yes I do remember this movie being quite a bit longer than this version. But why bicker over the little things as Zatoichi would say. ha ha ha. Tiny bird dance over clear blue water. ha ha ha. I sing for you Ichi.
There is film of Hattate Miki before this encounter with Zatoichi Detailing his life in Edo and his journey to Sagawasa. I don't see Tale of Zatoichi with english subtitles on you tube anymore

@@LoneWolf_Cub_Ogami_Itto こんな言葉があります。武士の生きざまを表した、言葉で、「剣に生き、剣に死す」、平手はまさに文字通りの死にざまでした。勝つのが分かってたのに敢えて、戦った市さんは、切腹のときの介錯と同じだと思います。平手さんに、武士らしい最後を迎えさせてあげたのだと思います。
テレビの勝さんを格好いいと一度も思ったことないけど、映画だと本当に格好いい、という表現ではたりないくらい格好いい
These films are absolute works of art!!!
Agreed. You can find the explanation of these characters in the book of Nietzsche: Twilight of idols.
Lo son con justificada razón.
Absolutely.
I agree. Have seen all of the Zatoichi films. I Love the scenes of Humor as well. Pure Gold!
いいものを観させてもらった。ありがとうよ。座頭市を観たのは、久しぶりでした。
Watch this movie from long ago and still keep watching
Like the way he acts and it’s fantastic
I must have watched all of these. The best films ever.
いい時代劇だ。懐かしい。勝新が一番若い時の座頭市らしい。兵隊やくざもいいが、座頭市が一番だね。
この「座頭市物語」と「座頭市血煙り街道」が好きで何度も観たなぁ。

9:23 "So no more killing today. Not even fish."
"I agree."
I love drink scene.
好きな作品です。観られてよかったです!
thank you so much for posting this movie. I'm a very big shintaro katsu fan and have tried to find this movie for a long time🙇♂️🙇♂️🙇♂️
Rare friendship.

勝新太郎のこの凄みは一体どっから来るねん‼️
史実として有名な話、飯岡組、笹川一家、そして平手造酒。大スター美波春夫も歌っていた。座頭市モノでは最高傑作。
This is brilliant. One of the best of a fantastic series.
座頭市と平手造酒。凄い凄すぎる‼️有難うございます。

座頭市はサムライでは無くファミリーに入っていない盲目のヤクザです。
🌟この作品が大好きです
i had tears in my eyes......so intense acting.....thank you for sharing
Finally Mr. Hirate acknowledged the skill of Swordsman ship owned by his regular masseuse after being proven by the fight on the bridge .. 👍🤩🙏
セリフのセンスがすごく良いですね。
Shintaro Katsu plays Zatoichi great in all his movies.😊
❤yes .he is wonderful
32:34 one of the few times when Katsu was filmed looking at the person he was speaking to. Later he did a good job of only showing the whites of his eyes.
It worked though because of his anger in my opinion
Zato no Ichi, man of valor,man of honour ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Ichi, the blind swordsman. The legend was told to me long ago by a wise friend.
This is my favorite episode. I haven't seen it in years!
I’m looking for the full episode
What marvelous outside frames!
The one when the boats arrive is pure genius!
Shintaro Katsu fue un gran actor.
This is a clip from a cinema movie from the early sixties , it’s a pity I can’t find the entire movie anymore only clips it’s a great film
かっこエエワー。痺れます。
スイスの画家バルテュスはイチ役俳優が好き
奥様が日本人

座頭市シリーズの、これが最高傑作?
天知茂さんが見事
ゴジラも、この座頭市も、第一作が始まりにして頂点。
I. Like Japan Movie
VeryGood ...verygood ...
Poor ichi all his friends all ways wants to test him , guest that was a compliment back then 😅
素晴らしい。格好良すぎる。
All of the original Zatoichi movies were on TH-cam and now they are gone. All that is left is the tv series. What happened?
It’s a pity this is only half of the film , this is the first zatoichi movie and he meets Otane for the first time
With improved AI technology color vision is great
So this time
Decided to subscribe
英訳が素晴らしい。
There is film of Hattate Miki before this encounter with Zatoichi Detailing his life in Edo and his journey to Sagawasa. I don't see

座頭市、どうだ、かわいい娘だろ。「まあまあかな、タイプじゃない」。おまえ、見えるのか。「あ、いや、そのう、ま、なんちゅうか。森繁久弥です。♪しれとこお、のお、みさきのお」。
How great is it to be honored?
鞘の抜差しが⋯秀逸(⌒-⌒; )
