Line 16:
* [[Kabuki Sounds]] much of the score is like this.
* [[Lady Macbeth]]: Asaji (not surprising, since she's based on the [[Trope Namer]]).
* [[Lonely Atat the Top]]
* [[Mobile Shrubbery]]
* [[Ominous Fog]] in spades.
* [[Out, Damned Spot!]]: Isuzu Yamada does a terrific mad scene. Also, she never blinks throughout the entire film (a direction from Kurosawa), which only adds to the crazy.
* [[Prophecy Twist]]
* [[Rain of Arrows]]
Line 29:
* [[Villain Protagonist]]
* [[Yamato Nadeshiko]]: Lady Asaji is probably the best example of how this trope can be played villainously. She barely moves during the entire first half of the film, and always takes a polite tone with her husband, yet every word that pours from her mouth is honey laced with venom.
* [[You Have Failed Me...]] and [[You Have Outlived Your Usefulness]]: Washizu kills the assassin he sent to collect Miki's head. This is either to get rid of someone who knows too much, or because the assassin failed to kill Miki's son as well (or both).
