Okamoto strategically uses Mifune himself in a minor role, as the catalyst for disaster; his character’s combination of nobility and physical prowess shakes Ryunosuke’s self-confidence.

Ryunosuke's blank-faced amorality and apparent insanity and the spirited swordplay and Nakadai's athleticism move the viewer along.
