Traditional
Primary
The film's narrative, centered on themes of loyalty, honor, and personal revenge within a traditional, hierarchical structure, subtly aligns with conservative values emphasizing tradition and individual responsibility rather than systemic critique.
This Japanese historical drama features traditional casting appropriate for its cultural and historical setting, without evidence of intentional DEI-driven casting or race/gender swaps. The narrative focuses on its genre's typical themes, maintaining a neutral or positive framing of its traditional identities without explicit DEI critiques.
Secondary
The film integrates Buddhist cosmological elements, such as the Ashura, to explore themes of retribution and the consequences of violent actions. By depicting the destructive nature of revenge, the narrative implicitly affirms Buddhist principles regarding the cycle of suffering and the importance of overcoming negative passions.
