A bigger-than-usual ape appears in the novel, but it's not a test to show Irako's skill to Tadanaga - it's a hint that the servant of the Sunpu castle that kills it with a thrown hairpin isn't quite what he seems.However, Gannosuke does indeed throw a knife against her beloved Chika during the match, before Shuuzaburou deals him the final hit. Likewise, in Gennosuke and Irako's tournament duel, Gennosuke throws the sword against Irako, not against Iku: Mie and Iku suicide themeselves after seeing their beloved Irako die.Adaptation Amalgamation: Chika takes some minor traits from Suruga-Jō Gozen Jiai's Kinu Isoda (the Naginata user from the novel's second match, which fights against her cousin Zanami Kanzaemon - both of them have a minor Continuity Cameo in the tournament's roll call), like her proficiency with the naginata and being Tadanaga's special concubine.The Ace: Irako Seigen initially appeared to be this, rising to the top of the Kogan school after only two years of study.At the moment the match begins, the narrative jumps back in time to show How We Got Here: it tells the story of the two samurai who once belonged to the same school of swordsmanship and how they got to this point, both maimed and determined to kill each other. Both samurai are accompanied by women: Irako is led by a woman named Iku, and Fujiki is aided by a young woman named Iwamoto Mie who seems to bear a grudge against Irako. Our main characters are the one-armed samurai Fujiki Gennosuke and the blind samurai Irako Seigen, two Arch Enemies brought together by fate for one final Duel to the Death. The story begins at a deadly tournament with real swords ordered by the sadistic daimyo Tokugawa Tadanaga in 1629, a secret account of which records only six survivors out of twenty-two contestants. In 2007, Madhouse made a 12-episode anime directed by Hiroshi Hamasaki and written by Seishi Minakami.
