Plot

In the grand tradition of the blind swordsman Zatoichi, emerges a new hero, Ichi, a blind woman who navigates life as a 'goze', a shamisen-playing vagabond. This seemingly delicate musician, however, conceals a staggering talent. Beyond the haunting melodies of her traditional three-stringed shamisen, Ichi wields a blade with a lightning-fast precision that dances on the edge of legend. Her sword is not only her protection but also a symbol of her quest for justice and the search for her long-lost father. Roaming from town to town, her music echoes in the streets and alleyways, drawing the attention of both admirers and villains. But beneath her gentle minstrel facade, Ichi is a tempest of skill and courage, effortlessly fending off yakuza and other threats with her extraordinary swordsmanship. A man, equally gifted in the art of the sword, emerges from the shadows. His prowess is unmatched save for one obstacle - his internal inhibition. As their paths intertwine, a riveting dance of blades unfolds, spinning a tale of courage, justice, and hidden pasts. While the world around them is steeped in chaos, Ichi continues her journey, her blade singing the songs of her heart, her spirit unbroken, her resolve unyielding.
