Even if the sword rusts, a man does not! The chivalrous Hishakaku, in return for a single night's lodging, risked his life! In 1936, when Shiro Ozaki's "Life's Theater: Youth Edition" was published, Director Tomu Uchida, who made a masterpiece that remains in film history at Nikkatsu, used the Toei All-Stars to dynamically sing the beauty of the yakuza way of life in "Life's Theater: Zankyo-hen," which he had long desired to make, creating a masterpiece of a super-large yakuza film. Kirajo, returning from Shanghai, visits the grave of his master, Hyotaro Aonari, in Kira Port, Sanshu, and then visits the home of Hyokichi in Tokyo. There, Kirajo helps the Kogane family and kills Jontoku, and also has a fateful encounter with Hishakaku, who has fled after stabbing his older brother, Narahei, who betrayed him. Hishakaku, deceived by Kirajo, surrenders after leaving his armor, and O-toyo also disappears. Four years pass, and after the death of the boss of the Kogane family, Dekatora attacks and stabs and kills Terakane, destroying the family. Hishakaku, finally released on bail, cannot stand Miyakawa, who does not pay respects to the boss and his older brother, and punches Miyakawa, who is apologizing at the grave of Kogane. Kirajo, wanting to comfort Hishakaku, takes him to Kira Port, where he has a tearful reunion with O-toyo, who is now a geisha. Kirajo watches over the two gently, but he is about to close the curtain on his life, lying in bed with an illness, perhaps from years of fatigue, after building a new grave for Hyotaro. At that time, a challenge arrives from Dekatora, demanding that they come for Miyakawa's remains. Hishakaku closes his eyes at Kirajo's death and resolutely goes to face the challenge with a sword in hand... The cast includes Koji Tsuruta as Hishakaku, Ryutaro Tatsumi as Kirajo, Ken Takakura as Miyakawa, Junko Fuji as O-toyo, Hiroki Matsukata as Hyokichi, Tomisaburo Wakayama as the Kogane boss, Sachiko Hidari as Osode, and Minoru Ohki as Terakane, responding to the passion of director Tomu Uchida and delivering a profound performance, creating a human drama full of depth.
