Ran : Closing Sequence

When one of Jiro's foot soldiers brings Kurogane (Hisashi Igawa) Lady Sue's head, he accuses Jiro (Jinpachi Nezu) of acting as Lady Kaede's pawn. Lady Kaede (Mieko Harada) reveals her true intentions and Kurogane executes her. Enemy armies invade and Jiro dies. Still waiting for his sister, Lady Sue's, return, the blind Tsurumaru (Takeshi Nomura/"Mansai Nomura") drops her buddhist text off a cliff.
