BABY CART TO HADES | |
| Description (by producer & GT in English only) : | Top-ranking samurai Itto Ogami holds the coveted position of executioner for the shogun. He falls victim to the schemes of the rival Yagyu clan, who kill his wife and try to force Ogami to commit harakiri. Ogami sees through the plot and escapes with his infant son Daigoro. He swears vengeance on the Yagyu clan and its leader, the silver-maned mastermind Retsudo.
Leading the life of a wandering assassin, pushing Daigoro around feudal Japan in a wooden cart armed with a hidden arsenal, Ogami carefully plans his revenge. But the Yagyu and their many allies are always on his trail.
Sword of Vengeance is the first episode in the riveting, bloody and ultra-stylish Lone Wolf and Cub series, based on the perennially popular comics by Kazuo Koike and Goseki Kojima. | 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! | |
