Gojoe Reisenki (Gojoe: Spirit War Chronicle) is a 2000 fantasy/samurai film by avant-garde director Sogo Ishii. It takes the long-standing Japanese myth of Yoshitsune and Benkei and turns it into an External Retcon, telling that the valiant Yoshitsune now a power-mad mystic warrior, while the brawling Benkei was once a bloodthirsty samurai but is now a repentant Buddhist monk.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Not to be confused with G.I. Joe, of course.

Bittersweet Ending: Benkei is dead, Tetsukichi is blind, and the Genji are waging war against the Heike again anyways, meaning even more war and famine will fall over Japan. However, the real Yoshitsune is dead and replaced by a much less psycho imposter, meaning the conflict will be less bloody, and at least civilian and monks will be spared. Benkei also died more or less in peace with itself, and the baby he revived is alive and well, symbolizing a new future.

Barehanded Blade Block: Benkei uses a variation of this in the final duel: he wields a piece of sword as a weapon, all with his bare hand, to show his badass demon warrior side.

Bolt of Divine Retribution: Benkei uses his broken sword as a lightning rod in the, um, electrifying climax.
