Killing

“Why must I kill?”

The peace in a village in the Edo period is wrong, and only the swordsman living there seems to feel it. Mokunoshin Tsuzuki (Sosuke Ikematsu) is a masterless rōnin who helps the villagers, among them Yu (Yu Aoi), yet he grows restless as talk of war moves across the land. Shinya Tsukamoto, who also appears as Jirozaemon Sawamura, keeps the village in a held, unhurried quiet.
