侍は、武器を持つ者ではない。心で戦う者だ。

Toshiro Mifune

A samurai is not someone who carries a weapon. It is someone who fights with their heart.

Do you know the "Zatochi" technique introduced in Star Wars : Ahsoka, is inspired by a blind swordsman from a classic Japanese film called Zatoichi?

In episode 3 of Ahsoka, Ahsoka trained Sabine Wren in the "Zatochi" technique to rely on senses beyond sight, which is similar to Zatoichi who defeated his enemies with his sword even when he is blind.

The technique is used by Kanan Jarrus when he was blinded by the former Sith Lord, Maul in Star Wars Rebels, by Chirrut Îmwe in Rogue One and later by Obi Wan to teach Luke in A New Hope.

It highlights the significance in the franchise's canon and honour George Lucas original inspirations from classic Japanese Samurai films, which continues to influence the Star Wars Universe.

A film is never really good unless the camera is an eye in the head of a poet.

Kurosawa was a person who wouldn't take a no for an answer, who would work to get something right, who would get up and dust himself off and give a difficult problem another go. 'You can fall down seven times in the same place,' Kurosawa said, quoting an ancient Japanese proverb, 'and if you stand up the eighth time you have won.'
