Plot
The famed Japanese swordsman Miyamoto Musashi of the 17th century is not the violent yet philosophical Ronin that has been the typical version played out in the typical "Musashi" movie - This time he is a vulgar, violent, unintelligent and crude bully, with the personality of an insane homeless bum who is the center of his own megalomaniacal universe.
The story follows the villan Musashi towards the famous battle with Sasaki Kojiro at Ganrû island, where things go down with a twist.
