...talk about blue balls. jeez. Is that how the book ended or did they run out of money?
shareIshido ends up captured and buried up to his head. He lasts three days before dying. Yeah, I wish they would have not yada yada'd past that. He was the villain the whole ten episodes.
shareI can only imagine a massive battle scene like that would have taken quite a chunk of the budget. I don't recall how the original series ended, but here it makes sense. Wish they could have gone into a bit more detail.
There are also some great Japanese films that show the battle, if not specifically focused on it. That, and other films have it as a sub plot, like early on in the Samurai trilogy.
what a let down
