Etuzan - Jakusui Onozomi No Ketsumatsu Best

Now a blind mendicant, Saburō wanders for seven years. Oshin, consumed by guilt, secretly nurses him during winter nights. When Ikkansai discovers this, he attempts to kill Saburō. Oshin stabs Ikkansai with a hairpin but is mortally wounded. In the final scene, a blind Saburō cradles Oshin’s body beneath the same moon where they first vowed. He then performs seppuku. The closing lines read:

“His wish did not end in happiness. But it ended. And that was enough.”

A jealous rival, Tōdō Ikkansai, falsely accuses Saburō of plotting against the clan lord. Oshin agrees to become Ikkansai’s concubine in exchange for Saburō’s life. But Ikkansai breaks his promise – Saburō is blinded and exiled.
