Quite the good adaptation of the original movie. And one can even read Ichi's lines in Shintaro Katsu's voice and inflexions!

Look like the blind Admiral from one piece.

You should binge them all. The 27 of them (the 26 of Shintaru Katsu, whih depict a young-ish Ichi, one year less young per movie (30-ish to 50-ish), and the Takeshi Kitano movie, which depicts a very much older (white-haired older), considerably more jaded Ichi, the only Zatoichi movie besides Katsu's that actually feels like it belongs.
