A turbocharged Mixed Martial Arts action film and coming-of-age story is the latest masterpiece from cult director Takashi Miike!  Ikuto and Ryoma are released from a juvenile corrections facility with a commitment to redeem themselves and rebuild their lives on “Breaking Down”, a popular martial arts competition show. As they train for their audition, the two run afoul of several local gangs and are soon fighting for more than just a trophy.   Inspired by “Street Legend”, the rags-to-riches autobiography of legendary MMA  fighter Mikuru Asakura, who appears as himself in the film. Blazing Fists incorporates elements of anime and manga, with a moving story of friendship, bone-crushing fight sequences and humour.
