Another game turned into videogame. Well this one isn't that bad since Onechanbara (the game)'s gameplay is all fights. I have already written a review on that game (but it's the 2nd game) read it if you like...

The story is Aya looking for her sister Saki who she saw kill their own father. She travels with Katsuji a man looking for her sister Asami. As they were looking for Saki they met the leather clad Reiko whose seeking revenge for Dr. Sugita. Aya and Reiko had a little fight but they were by Katsugi. Reiko said that Saki is with Dr. Sugita though Aya never said a word Katsuji explained that Reiko can join them.

Well this obviously didn't follow the story of the game but the video effects reminds me of the game so much. I was waiting patiently for her blood lust move and it was awesome they made it look so dramatic with the special effects added. The girl playing Aya looks great in that costume. Reiko looks the part too except that the gun she's using is a smaller than what Reiko uses in the game. Saki looks perfect, her costume is changed a little though. But I'm thinking maybe thier costumes were based on the first game cause I only get to play the second so I really don't know...

I'm not gonna hate on this movie since the fight scenes were awesome. I just hate the fact that Saki is a villian here. I also would like to point out that though they weren't smiling as much they do smile just a little bit that you won't recognize it but it's there. While we're on the topic of smiling, I wish Aya smiled more at the ending... Oh if you're wondering why Aya have two swords, well just watch the movie that made me wonder as well while I first saw the trailer...
