    A Samurai in Time is one of the most heartwarming time-traveling films you will ever see. The characters are well-written and you become fully invested in the story. For a guy who did the majority of the behind-the-scenes work himself, director Junichi Yasuda has crafted a genuine film of kindness, integrity, and purely delightful entertainment.

    'A Samurai in Time' is truly splendid. I wouldn't actually describe it as anything super enthralling or anything, but it is supremely watchable, fairly amusing and surprisingly hearty - the 120+ minute run time flew by. I'd happily revisit this one.

    The performances of Makiya Yamaguchi and Norimasa Fuke are of real quality, both individually and as a collective. I totally believed and bought into the trajectory of the characters, which is impressive as otherwise they've could've been quite plain 'fish out of water' types.

    Yuno Sakura (cool to read about her backstory for this, same can be said for the film as a whole in fact), Rantaro Mine and Tsutomu Tamura manage to stick out behind the main two, as do a few other of the more minima...
