- Zatoichi meets an infamous blind leader of a gangster organization as he contends with a gloomy ronin widower.
- Cowritten by star Shintaro Katsu, this adventure pits Zatoichi against one of his most diabolical foes: a blind yakuza boss whose reign of terror and exploitation has made him nearly mythic. Guest starring the legendary Tatsuya Nakadai as a ronin haunted by a traumatic past, and featuring an unforgettable nude swordfight in a bathhouse, this twenty-first entry in the series is a fan favorite.—Anonymous
- During his wanderings, Zatoichi comes across a group of people connected with an infamous Yakuza boss, known as "Dark Lord" Yamikubo. Yamikubo is blind like Ichi, but he is indeed evil and rules with an iron fist a great region of lands and towns who pay tribute to him. After Zatoichi tries to help a woman who has been bought at a mistress auction organized by one of Yamikubo's henchmen, the Dark Lord uses the beautiful Okiyo, his protégé, as a spy who must seduce and take Ichi's famed cane sword away. But shortly after meeting him, Okiyo falls in love with Ichi and refuses to carry out her mission. Yamikubo has to devise another way of ousting the blind swordsman and it just so happens to land at his feet.—DanTheMan2150AD
