Standout Aspects

Practical Effects

Gloriously fake period sets that scream 1970s Toei backlot.

Costume

Kimonos designed to fall off with suspicious ease.

Best for:Solo: Late night viewing when nobody's asking questions.·Rewatch: Spotting which fight scenes are just excuses for undressing.
Heads up:Sexual Content: Frequent softcore scenes typical of 1970s pinku eiga territory.·Violence: Comic book blood sprays amid the bedroom antics.
