Shin Mahjong Demon 4: Kabukicho, Gamblers' Alley

In the 1970s, 80% of mahjong parlours in Kabukichō were "Buu Mahjong" establishments, where cash flowed freely in high stakes games. In this city that never sleeps, Shoichi Sakurai—known as the “Legendary Mahjong Demon”—enjoyed high stakes matchups with men who shared his love for the game. Shoichi Sakurai, who carried his winnings about without a care; a pickpocket who set his sights on that money; a self-proclaimed disciple of the “Mahjong Demon” begging for money; a man who only aimed for a “National Treasure” hand; a legendary hitman; a hitman for a rival yakuza gang, and more—the lives of gamblers living in Kabukichō intertwine.

Sword of the Beast

Legendary swordplay filmmaker Hideo Gosha's Sword of the Beast chronicles the flight of the low-level swordsman Gennosuke, who kills one of his ministers as part of a reform plot. His former comrades then turn on him, and this betrayal so shakes his sense of honor that he decides to live in the wild, like an animal. There he joins up with a motley group who are illegally mining the shogun’s gold, and, with the aid of another swordsman, gets a chance not just at survival but to recover his name and honor.
