The Hunter


Dafaq. How did he survive getting a sword thrown through his neck lol?

reply

It was weird. At the end Shimada Shinrokurō the surviving samurai queries it as well, asking if he's immortal, suggesting he might be some sort of mountain spirit or goblin in human form, who decided to assist them with their quest.

Apparently the original longer Japanese version, supplies more information about the character.🐭

From the FAQ:

It's been confirmed during interview with the director that the bandit represents a yokai or forest spirit and therefore is immortal.

Oh ok cool!

Ha that's awesome. I came to the board to ask this question. Yea when he was asked if he's hurt, he looked at his belly, didn't even acknowledge his neck. I thought I saw the wrong guy die or somethin.

I was wondering the same thing, but it seems he is a ghosr of some sort.

Come at the king, you best not miss.
