[quote]“Revenge is never a straight line…”  is spoken by Hanzo as I mentioned earlier…   However, there’s no way that Sonny Chiba is speaking those lines.  If you listen to the second trailer and hear Sonny say in English “Those must be big rats.” and compare it to the later narration, you will hear for sure that they sound nothing alike.  So the question is:  who does the Hanzo English narration?  My first thought was Japanese-American actor Mako…  but I’m not too sure.  Can anyone else help me out with some probable guesses?

If you remember in the script…the “Sushi Bar” guy has this bullshit accent. In the script he is fluent in both Japanese (obviously) and English. As is Sonny Chiba. The Sushi Bar thing is just a cover up for Hanzo’s past.
