Synopsis by Jason Buchanan

The master of the legendary "Full-Moon-Cut" technique, ronin Nemuri Kyoshiro (Raizo Ichikawa) wanders the Japanese countryside in search of adventure, and faces any challenge to come his way. In the first installment of the ongoing samurai series, Koshiro battles an army of henchmen after uncovering a nefarious plot between a treacherous Daimyo and an elusive smuggler. Later, while attempting to recover a treasured statue, Koshiro meets his match in the form of Chen Sun, a powerful monk and true martial arts master.
