BABY CART TO HADES | LONE WOLF & CUB
BABY CART IN THE LAND OF DEMONS | |
| Description (by producer & GT in English only) : | Lone wolf Itto Ogami continues his trek through feudal Japan, with son Daigoro in tow. This time, they cross paths with a masterless samurai who proves to be more than a match for Ogami. At the same time, father and son come to the rescue of a young girl, who has been sold to a group of gangsters who want to force her into prostitution. Against the female leader of this criminal gang, Ogami has to rely on more than just his skill with a sword.
Baby Cart to Hades mixes the series’ trademark spectacular action with musings on the meaning of honour in a lawless world. It culminates in a finale that has to be seen to be believed! | Relentlessly pursued by the Yagyu clan, Ogami and Daigoro flee across Japan, waiting for the opportunity to face the evil Retsudo. They face five warriors who come to test their skills before hiring the lone wolf and his cub to expose a plot against the master of their clan.
Meanwhile, Daigoro falls under the charms of a lady pickpocket and is arrested by the police as her accomplice.
With a plot full of betrayal and bloodshed, Baby Cart in the Land of Demons is the darkest, most pessimistic installment in the Lone Wolf and Cub series. | |
