Review of Lone Wolf and Cub: Baby Cart in Peril (1972) by Koji Y — 18 Apr 2011

One of the best films of the series. Each character's story can turned into its own film. A tattooed female assassin who seeks revenge against the master swordsman who uses the flaming sword, her father who wishes for her death so that she stops living the life of hatred and bloodshed, a sword master who lost his status as the official Tokugawa clan executioner in the match against Ogami Itto and now seeks revenge on his disgrace he's lived with, and most of all, Ogami Itto with his son Daigoro who's on a journey of bloodshed to seek revenge on his wife murdered by Yagyu Retsudo.
