Review by MasterPike ★★★½
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
As my only exposure to a Japanese Kabuki performance, this was often fantastic, but I still found myself alternating between boredom and fascination over the two and half hour run time 😝
The sequence with the mad scientist and his robots was fun and very Japanese-bizarre, but way too modern in tone for the rest of the play.
Toma Ikuta, in his first Kabuki role, far outshines his friend and more established Kabuki player, Matsuya Onoe. There's no contest between them in terms of stage presence and charisma; Ikuta far exceeds his friend.

Review by Marcus
Hi Friday,
I said I'd watch kabuki so i did. Cynthia joined and we laughed and loved it. This one is apparently based on a 50s comic about like, a wandering swordsman fighting demons from hell and his brother becomes a lightning oni. There's a scene with robots.
What specifically rules about it is the like, heightened way most things are represented. A hero is convinced to join the villain and you get by the dance they do he's changed his mind. Multiple people are revealed as demons through a drag-style costume reveal. People are struck down in battle by someone across stage who slices the air as a drum impact plays. Like it really accomplishes not showing these things as they would be in real life but as they feel to the characters. -

First Kabuki performance I’ve seen so I have no way to measure if it was a good one. What I can say is that I really enjoyed it.

Review by Steve Austin-Crawford ★★★★
I'm very appreciative of Netflix for hosting this, kabuki is a form that I admire a lot and it isn't easily accessible to westerners who don't travel to Japan frequently

Review by Achtung ★★★★
Kabuki is a part of japanese culture that I am not that familiar with, however this was quite interesting and fun! This is a very different play that What I am used to, but I do have to admit it was entertaining, seeing all the different dancing scenes, the background music, the still frames and best of all: The costume design and makeup, all of that was enthralling.
It wasn’t perfect, I feel that some parts of the story were a bit poor, some of the scenes were a bit weird, but as stated, this was still a great time!
If you are of any interest in theater or japanese culture, then I would recommend watching this or perhaps another Kabuki play, cause this was awesome! -
