 "damn dissapointing"I am a huge fan of anime, and have been since the days of the early Ranma 1/2 (yappapa yappapa eenshannten...). When I first picked up the original Ninja Scroll movie, I was enthralled by it. masterful animation, incredible plot, and superb dialogue. So, naturally, I expected this to be as good, if not better. I was utterly dissapointed with the quality of the anime. The animation was by no means as good as the first, and the over-dramatic score in the goofiest places proved to make it even cheesier. I was really really dissapointed in the plot. I like Ninja Scroll because it focuse solely and completely on the mideival japanese period, a preiod wich intrigues me. This glorified the passage of Christianity into Japan to an extent wich almost made me cry... The fact that they could possibly pass this off as the return of a ledgend (as the ad told me) appauls me. honestly, I was po'ed with it.  "This movie has nothing to do with "Ninja Scroll".."This anime series is actually based on the live action movie "Ninja Resurrection" and not the anime "Ninja Scroll". Don't buy the movies in this series because you think it is Ninja Scroll 2. Buy this series because it contains an excellent story line, lots of gore, and ninjas, ninjas, ninjas!  "Nope"this was a big waste of time! It took to long to start (thanks to that little history lesson) and once it did it left to many questions. This movie is low buget! ADV tried to create a run off of ninja scoll and failed. This has no connection to ninja scroll so all of you who are looking for more ninja scroll action...watch ninja scroll again because this is not it.  "Why do you buy a DVD, anyway?"I agree with my friend "Bryant A S Trew" 100 percent. Why do you buy a DVD? 'Cause it is a film that you'd take pleasure in watching over and over and taking pleasure in it. AND a DVD must be a full film, isn't it. Yea, unfortunately, this film is not even a full cinema. IT is "...to be continued"! With an artistic vision, this film is well drawn. However, this is not a slide show. I also have Ninja Scroll, and while buying this I thought this was the second part. But no, don't be fooled. This Jubei is Jubei Yagyu from Samurai Spirits. Sounds good, but don't be fooled with that either. 'Cause... Um well I already said it that film is bad. It is too short too. 70 min. While others are more than 140... What I suggest is don't throw away your money or you'r gonna throw away this film. "STAY AWAY AND BE VERY VERY AFRAID"Oh man this was THE worst movie I have EVER seen in my life. Please stay away. Titanic had more things going for it than this "work of art". I have never fell asleep during a movie but i must have fell asleep about 4 times (i woke up to see if anything happened besides the whole japanese/christian thing) this has nothing to do with one of the greatest animes of all time NINJA SCROLL! So if you like boring BAD ANIME buy this piece of garbage but if you like something interesting buy a documentary about the life of SOIL, thats more interesting! |
