Bodyguard Kiba 1 and 2 Sonny Chiba 2-Disc Blu-ray Eureka UK I II

Two riotously entertaining tales of betrayal and bloodshed starring Sonny Chiba!

Introducing Eureka's Limited Edition 2-Disc Blu-ray for Ryuichi Takamori's Bodyguard Kiba and Bodyguard Kiba II, a duo of martial arts mayhem starring action superstar Sonny Chiba!

Based upon the manga by celebrated writer Ikki Kajiwara, Bodyguard Kiba follows the eponymous karate master and professional bodyguard (Chiba) as he is hired to protect the mysterious Reiko (Mari Atsumi), a woman embroiled in the world of organised crime. Kiba’s involvement with Reiko brings him into conflict with the yakuza, leading to a final bloody showdown.

Then, in Bodyguard Kiba 2, Kiba is released from prison after taking revenge on the rival martial artists who blinded his sister Maki (Etsuko Shihomi). Back on the streets, he takes a job working for shady nightclub owner Akamatsu (Shoki Fukae), once again forcing him to take on Japan’s criminal underworld.
