		Tensho should be a prime object of practice because, as a psychological and theoretical support behind karate training and as a central element in basic karate formal exercises, it has permeated the techniques, the blocks and the thrusts, and is intimately connected with the very life of karate.

		In addition, he was one of the most prolific of smiths having produced swords from Tensho 4 (1576) up until the year before he died in Keicho 19 (1614) at the age of 84.

	DVD Talk Review: Samurai Reincarnation: Makai Tensho
		While that film was strictly historical action, Samurai Reincarnation: Makai Tensho is firmly along the lines of dark fantasy, taking historical figures and situations and weaving them into a macabre storyline.
		The print looks as good as when it was first projected and suffers little of the film stock issues of other movies from the same time period.
		In short, for a film that deserves to be called a classic of its genre (Samurai/Horror, maybe?) this DVD is just screaming to be bought and added to your collection.
