Last Samurai Standing 2
Based on the story that inspired the Netflix samurai epic! As the 19th century comes to a bloody end, a sinister game of life-or-death brutally culls Japan's fading warrior class. Who is rounding up the few who still cling to their swords and forcing them to fight? Who will be the last samurai standing?
In the year 1878βthe 11th year of the Meiji Era in Japanβa secret battle royale is brewing amongst the mightiest warriors in the country for a chance to win 100,000 yenβ2,000 times a police officer's annual salary. In dire need of money to save his wife and child from cholera, Shujiro Saga enters combat.
But as blood pours at Tenryuji Temple, Shujiro becomes the reluctant protector of a young former samurai's daughter, Futaba Katsukiβwho is on a similar noble mission to save her ill mother. How will they manage to pass through the seven checkpoints along the Tokaido highway without meeting their gruesome demise?
Last Samurai Standing 2 chronicles their desperate struggle, as fate intertwines their destinies in this epic tale of courage, honour, and survival.
