I'm not sure if that was a parody or not ("Lord, I didn't study enough!", "He is sparkly!", fishstick sword!)
but it was kinda awesome. and silly.

maybe Mifune, his Iai and his squad of Samurai would been a better fit to battle against the seven swordsman? I know we didn't see hanzo do anything before, but I didn't picture him as a weapon fighter. other than Tsundase, I can't even Imagine anyone having a real reason to fight him.
