"Samurai Fiction (SF \u30B5\u30E0\u30E9\u30A4\u30FB\u30D5\u30A3\u30AF\u30B7\u30E7\u30F3, Esu Efu Samurai Fikushon) is a 1998 comedy-samurai film directed by Hiroyuki Nakano. It is almost entirely black-and-white, and follows a fairly standard plotline for a comedy and jidaigeki samurai film, but the presence of Tomoyasu Hotei's rock-and-roll soundtrack separates it from the films it was inspired by, such as the works of Akira Kurosawa. A loose spinoff was released in 2001, as Red Shadow."@en . . . . . .
