   I don't know if they can keep this up, but in Zatoichi the Fugitive, convoluted events lead the blind swordsman once again to a climax that feels very personal. If we're to keep caring for Ichi - and by this fourth film, we certainly do - he's got to have our sympathies. Katsu generates so much pathos, it's not hard, but the story gives him a heart-wrenching dilemma to accentuate that quality. While still being hounded by yakuza who want him dead (and how many films before there are no yakuza left in Japan, at this rate?), Ichi must figure out how not to kill the lovers of two women he cares about, even though they're on the other side. One of these is Otane, from the first two films, and we find out just what her fate is. The other is a similar innocent, Onobu (played by the very cute Miwa Takada here, she will return in other roles across the series), who wants to marry a boy who has inherited his boss father's territory, though he is ill-equipped to be a gangster. If by now you don't hear the sad Hulk music at the end of each movie... 3 years 9 months ago
