In its 18 year history, the Rurouni Kenshin story has been told in a popular manga series, multiple anime series, several OVAs and even audio books. Now, the story of a pacifist vagabond has become a live-action film! Screenwriter Fujii Kiyomi (L Change the World) and director Otomo Keishi (Taiga drama Ryomaden) offer an action-packed take on the origin story of Kenshin, with up-and-coming young star Sato Takeru taking the title role. The blockbuster samurai film also stars Takei Emi (For Love’s Sake) as kendo instructor Kaoru, Aoi Yu (Patisserie Coin de rue) as opium producer Megumi and Kagawa Teruyuki (Kaiji 2) as villainous industrialist Kanryu. The film’s thrilling action sequences are choreographed by Tanigaki Kenji, who has worked as stunt coordinator with action superstar Donnie Yen on SPL, Flashpoint and Wu Xia.

Battosai (Sato Takeru) was a proud samurai who decided to give up his way of life after fighting in the bloody battle of Toba-Fushima. Ten years later, samurais are now mercenaries working for merchants like Kanryu (Kagawa Teruyuki), who oppress the people for their own gain. When kendo instructor Kaoru tries to stand up to Kanryu, she is saved by Battosai, now a wanderer named Kenshin. After losing his samurai status, Kenshin has renounced killing and is committed to peace. However, in a world filled with opportunists and oppressors like Kanryu, Kenshin will have to learn how to fight back without breaking his vow..

From director Yamada Yoji (The Twilight Samurai) comes The Hidden Blade (a.k.a. Kakushi Ken Oni no Tsume), another loving depiction of the bygone days of samurai heroism. Nagase Masatoshi (Shark Skin Man & Peach Hip Girl, Pistol Opera) stars as a samurai, whose adherence to his code of honor is tested by the forces around him. It is mid-nineteenth century Japan, and the way of the samurai is fading, as Western influences and corruption are slowly taking hold in Japan.

Samurai Katagiri Munezo (Nagase Masatoshi) rescues a woman (Matsu Takako) who’s being abused in her married life, but as a silent romance blossoms between them, his corrupt superiors challenge his honor. When the clan orders Katagiri to kill a fellow samurai fallen to corruption, can this man of honor – who has never killed – complete his duty? Like in The Twilight Samurai, Yamada Yoji explores complex themes in his depiction of the simple, yet conflicted life of a man following the strictest moral code. Full of fascinating detail and sublime humanity, The Hidden Blade is a marvelously-realized film that represents the best of what current Japanese cinema has to offer..

After seven long years, Arashi once again returns to the silver screen as a unit in PIKANCHI LIFE IS HARD tabun HAPPY! The idol group picks up the thread on the PIKANCHI film series, which began in 2002 and spawned two movies prior to this one. Developed from a story by V6’s Inohara Yoshihiko, the series began with a group of five young men living in the same Tokyo apartment complex navigating through their teenage years together. The second film, released in 2004, caught up with the five friends, now in their twenties, as they struggled to transition into adulthood. With this 2014 installment, labeled the 2.5 entry in the series by Arashi’s members and made to celebrate the 15th anniversary of the boy band’s debut, we take a peek into the lives of Haru (Ohno Satoshi), Chu (Sakurai Sho), Shun (Aiba Masaki), Takuma (Ninomiya Kazunari) and Bon (Matsumoto Jun) a decade after we last saw them.

Now in their 30s, the erstwhile ragtag neighborhood friends are each dealing with his own work and family concerns, which include, among others, infidelity, disagreements over child-rearing methods and struggling businesses. The four who have remained in Japan get together to catch up, and are eventually joined by the globetrotting Takuma. As it turns out, there’s a special reason for this reunion…

This edition comes in special packaging and includes a bonus disc containing a making and a digest of the previous two PIKANCHI films, a pop-up album and a photo frame sticker..

With great power comes great perversity in HK Hentai Kamen, the live-action adaptation of the 1992 manga by Ando Keishu. Written and directed by Kodomo Keisatsu creator Fukuda Yuichi (with script assistance by actor/self-proclaimed HK fan Oguri Shun), the hilarious superhero comedy stars a high school student who gets superhero powers when he puts on female underwear and a skimpy costume. Using his super perverted moves (a more detailed description will make anyone blush), the hero known as “Hentai Kamen” is determined to protect a female classmate he’s in love with. Filled with silly, borderline tasteless and perverse visual gags, Hentai Kamen has been a cult hit in its native Japan and Taiwan.

The son of a masochistic detective father and an S&M worker mother, high school student Kyosuke (Suzuki Ryohei) discovers that he gains superpower when he puts female underwear on his face. Calling himself “Hentai Kamen” (Pervert Mask), Kyosuke uses his superpowers to fight bullies in the name of justice. Most of all, Ryosuke wants to use his perverted powers to protect his classmate Aiko from their evil teacher..
