Both movies include very funny and good sword fights.
Both of them are about a female swordsman(or swordswoman?) who face a tragic ending. Both female leads are very strong. If you like one of them, I'm sure u'll like the other.

1. Female warriors with exceptional skills 2. Historical 3. Azumi reminded me of Ichi because they both went through alot in order to be where they are. 4. Become more human by the end of the movie. Azumi does NOT have a disability though.
In nineteenth century China, two girls named Snow Flower and Lily are forever bonded together as sworn sisters. They are paired as laotong by a matchmaker who is also responsible for arranging their marriages. They are isolated by their families and communicate by writing in a secret sisterly language, Nü shu (a historical practice in China in that period) on a unique Chinese fan that Snow Flower possesses. In the present day Shanghai, their descendants Sophia Liao and Nina Wei struggle with the intimacy of their own pure and intense childhood friendship. As teenagers, Sophia and Nina were introduced to the idea of laotong, and they signed a traditional laotong contract on the cover of Canto-pop Faye Wong's album Fu Zao (Restless in English). Eventually they are separated but come together again when Sophia falls into a coma after being struck by a taxi while cycling. Reunited at long last, they must come to understand the story of the strong and close ancestral connection hidden from them in the folds of the antique white silk fan or lose one another forever in the process.
Both female lead are assassin. They are both fast, skillful fighters. Famine yet fast and precise. There were both orphan. They were framed. They were beautiful, tough. Fun to watch
