- Many connections, including; both being female revenge films; the duel in the snow covered garden; the division into chapters; the camera angle looking up at the heroine's attackers looking down at her; the animated sequence; the song "Flower of Carnage", sung by Meiko Kaji who is the star of 'Lady Snowblood', is heard in 'Vol. 1'; In the animated sequence, when O-Ren is getting her revenge, the line "Look at me closely. Do I look like someone you may have killed?" is taken directly from 'Shurayukihime', except Snowblood says "raped" instead of "killed."
