violence
Several sequences of stylised swordplay include scenes in which people are stabbed and slashed with occasional blood spurts and blood in the aftermath. A person's arm is sliced off, and there is brief aftermath sight of the victim's bloody shoulder stump. A heavy object is slammed down on the back of a person's hand, leaving a bloody wound.
injury detail
A character vows to slice off his own arm if he is defeated in a duel. The man loses and, accordingly, slices off his own arm in masked fashion. There is aftermath sight sight of his bloody shoulder. A character removes a sword protruding from his stomach. The weapon is extracted below frame, accompanied by brief close-up sight of a blood spurt. There are also scenes featuring severed limbs and bloodstained corpses.
additional issues
