BWH&H 2: That One
As the first sequel in this series, this one is a bit of a mixed bag. It wasn't what I had expected it to be the first time I saw it, and I was initially a little let down. Instead of following Hirono Shozo this time, we have a new main character and Shozo only makes appearances here and there. Given how things all play out, I actually enjoyed this movie much more on my second watch of it. Once you have the proper expectations, it flows better. That said, it is still my least favorite of the 5 main films.This was the last film to follow a true story too, so it's kind of cool to see the other side of things. I think the reason I don't like it as much is because the new main lead for this one doesn't have ANY redeeming qualities, and so we're just watching him screw things up everywhere he goes.
I don't have much else to say about this one. It's still a must-see if you plan to watch this series, even though it often feels more like a side story or spin off than a true sequel. You will miss important details if you skip it.

Yakuza and Guns
I went into this movie looking for Sonny Chiba's famous martial arts scenes like Dragon Princess and Street fighter. Instead I got tons of gun fights. It is dark and bloody about how Organized crime families work. Its the 70's so the Film quality isn't up to today's standards but some how adds to the gritty dirty -ness of the topic.Recommended if you like this sort of thing.
Oh and there is a love story, while not the main part of the movie it is the main REASON for the mains motives.
