Apart from the satisfying gory ending, which allows us to enjoy a couple of minutes of the super sexy Megumi Takahashi pretending to be an escort for the massage of the rogue Takayanagi, and reminds us of one of her Groper Train films, we can overlook the poor script. It’s no big deal, given the circumstances, and I suspect it was due to excessive concern—in the production, the direction, whatever—about the details of the confrontation between Kiriko and Ryuji as a sequel to The Blind Cat, instead of giving the characters a chance to let their dialogue flow naturally, instead of ‘Ryuji has been gaining power, he has sworn revenge.’

It’s not that we should expect literary depth in an action film with nudity and a low budget, but there’s something about blood, how it flows when the script is too simplistic and those clots have built up too much after the fast-paced street scene in which Kiriko is cornered with a lot of noise so she can’t hear where the swords are being wielded or the bullets are being fired, compared to how the haemoglobin flows when we see Kiriko’s pronounced shoulders. Anyway. The scientist Yamaguchi, the father of Saki, the teenager Kiriko meets on the train, has been kidnapped so that he can finish developing the drug #Desire and make the crooks more resistant. Kidnapped, he works under pressure and achieves his goal, but in the end, the police officer who pretended to help Kiriko was actually an evil woman who ends up killing Yamaguchi and then Saki in front of Kiriko.

Shortly before, Saito shot and killed the buyer Takayanagi, and the ending is an enveloping clash of skills, intense action, with combat scenes and chases, proving the resilience of a visually impaired protagonist who uses her heightened senses to overcome her enemies, although it almost costs her her life with their henchman who had claws like Wolverine. The unfortunate thing is that she was unable to save Saki. The wicked laughter of the fake police officer and her semi-nudity add a spectacular touch between ridiculous absurdity and madness at inappropriate moments.A good gory ending.
