Summary:
The film follows a young woman called Lilli, who on her 20th birthday is informed by her grandmother that she is to inherit her family’s mystical martial arts technique. During the ceremony, she is unexpectedly sent back in time to 18th Century Japan, where she stumbles upon a small village being menaced by an evil geisha and her unpleasant henchmen. Falling in love with one of the local lads (Yoichi Matsuda), Lilli takes it upon herself to protect the villagers, armed only with her sword and the discovery that by baring her breasts her fighting skills are considerably enhanced.
“Chanbara Striptease” was originally released in Japan as “Oppai Chanbara”, which basically translates as “Breast Chanbara”, a fair and justified title indeed. The “Blades, Babes and Boobs” tagline for this DVD release is equally fitting, and the film is certainly one which could never be accused of false advertising, as it basically hangs entirely on the scenes of Sasa Handa disrobing. Amusingly, the film doesn’t make much effort to try and justify this, with her supposed martial arts powers having no discernable characteristics other than her breasts emitting a weird video effect pink light that allows her to defeat her foes, presumably due to their being understandably distracted. She herself struggles to come up with a decent explanation as to why shedding her modesty is necessary, and upon being asked why she fights topless, she mutters a reply that for her it is like winter following spring, and day following night.
