Crimson Bat, the Blind Swordswoman

めくらのお市物語 真赤な流れ鳥

You’re left blind after a childhood storm and taken in by a weary ronin. He teaches bladework until your blade hums faster than your doubts. Then he’s gone and you’re hunting heads for coin. The road reads like a ledger. A director steeped in widescreen shadows leaves you counting each footstep.

Directed by Sadatsugu Matsuda · Written by Ichirō Miyagawa, Hajime Takaiwa, Ikuro Suzuki

Starring Yōko Matsuyama, Chizuko Arai, Jun Tatara, Shinichi Yanagisawa, Akitake Kōno, Misako Tominaga
