Years later (2005), my friends Weston, Trevor, and I updated the story, giving the characters more of a background, and added a whole pantheon of gods exist behind the scenes, watching and waiting. We also added in Weston's character "Dark Alden". Dark Alden is not as powerful as Yoshiro, but could kill him if he wanted to. Alden also has a better understanding of chaos and order. Make no mistake, Dark Alden is evil, dark, and destructive, but he has seen what happens to those who create chaos and make war with the gods. He did that, and was banished to the earth and imprisoned in a stasis crystal on Hokkaido. He does not strike Yoshiro down only out of loyalty and gratitude (it was Yoshiro that freed him from the crystal).
We also added more to Yoshiro's powers, appearance, etc. Also put a little emphasis on the 1616-1650 War in Europe. We also created a whole "chosen one" thing with Yoshiro and Kyotoro. In our original movies, the confict between the two was just coincidence. We've edited that, making it that there are two individuals whose Fate is not known, not even by the gods. Yoshiro is the long-awaited "Destructor of Mankind", an evil, dark, chaotic individual who has the power to kill even a god and could potentially, if given enough time, conquer the entire universe. This "Destructor" will keep getting more powerful as time goes on, which only adds to his chaotic power. His opposite is Kyotoro, the equally long-awaited "Savior of Mankind". He has all the powers of the original god of light, who fell in battle defeating a mysterious dark force (Hint, hint, Dark Alden) thousands of years ago. These two will fight, that is known, but thier final fate is totally unknown, not even by Time and Nature.
So, there you have it. Samurai/fantasy story.
