I don't know if there are any films based on Date Masamune. I saw a 52 episode NHK television series of his life starring Ken Watanabe about 25 years ago.

Here is an Amazon link to Kage no Gundam season 1:

I got my boxed set from Best Buy for about $50.

Almost every episode ended the same with Shinichi Chiba and his ninja group attacking an enemy's mansion, and killing everybody inside. Still they were pretty fun to watch.

Wasn't there an UY character called Ken Watanabe once? Or am I seeing things?

It's great that the seller posted a detailed explanation of the season. I missed most of it, and now it makes more sense.

There were 4 or 5 seasons of Kage no Gundam, and, as I said, Season 2 was my favorite.

I can't recall any UY character by that name.

The actor Ken Watanabe has more recently been in The Last Samurai, Clint Eastwood's Letters from Iwo Jima and Batman Begins.

Don't worry, you're not crazy.

There was a samurai named Watanabe Ken. He lived under a bridge with his son Ichirozuke in The Pride of the Samurai (Issue #73).

I have to admit, I've always wondered if Hikiji's only desire is just to be the Shogun. I know it keeps his character simple, but I've never seen Hikiji as the "Sauron" type, although he's an obvious inspiration.

At the end of the day, as cunning as Hikiji is, he's still only human (pun intended). Does he have other motives besides ultimate power?
