Before World War II, three disciples, Taikan, Choei, and Giryu, were taught by karate master Eiken Shibara in a remote mountain dojo. When the Japanese military police attempt to seize the training hall, the three disciples resist and soundly defeat them, though Choei receives a crippling injury. Afterwards, on his deathbed, their master bids his pupils to focus their skills inward and decide who is worthy of being his successor and inheriting his black belt. Taikan and Giryu, as the only two viable candidates, follow different paths on their journey to discovering the meaning behind their master's last words. (oficjalny tekst dystrybutora)

angielski When a trio of grandmasters of their craft is silent and train individual executioners with machine-like purity, there is no choice but to admire their art with a respectable nod of the head. But this will only happen at the very beginning and then at the final credits. Meanwhile, for 90 minutes, the filmmakers for some incomprehensible reasons force this trio of non-actors into chatty emotionally tense scenes which would be hard even for some great actors; which these people are not. Moreover, I do not even understand the approach of the creators to introduce unembellished karate and its philosophy through a scenario that does karate a complete disservice, because it creates the impression of a self-centered discipline of the least resistance in order to gain a piece of cloth, with no regard for others.
