The Flip of a coin leads the blind masseur and master swordsman Zatoichi to
his hometown, a place he has not visited in over two decades. Despite his
extended hiatus, he finds that several people remember him from his hellcat
youth, including a "sister" that he never knew he had and the
village's local government Superintendant.
But things never stay quiet for the masseur for very long. An old face from
Ichi's childhood, Shinbei, has hatched a nefarious plot to rob the town of thier
valuable community quarry. The masseur is caught in the unenviable position of
mediating the conflict between his former pal and the home of his youth, with
neither side willing to budge. Can Ichi,the champion of the weak and oppressed,
do the right thing, even if it pits him against his childhood chum?
