Zatoichi: The Blind Swordsman: Zatoichi's Cane Sword

I would like to start by saying that i am a martial artist, and have been for nearly thirty years. This series of the adventures of Zatoichi has been no less than thrilling to watch. Mr. Shintaro Katsu is a credit to his profession. I read his bio and found out that singing and dancing were among several more tallents that he possesed. He was a pro even until his death in 1997.
I am greatful for Hulu, for posting so many of his films. If you are new to these series,..Invest whatever time you can by watching these.
Thanx!

These classic Zatoichi films are Japan's versions of Westerns. The character is the archetype for so many lone superheroes to follow, not to mention the Kung Fu series with its blind Master Po. Hulu has done a great service by making these films freely available to an international audience for the first time. Enjoy.
