Ninja Scroll (DVD, 1998, Original Japanese Subtitled English)

Something That's Interesting Than Naruto

It Tells A Story As It Follows Through. Like Example: When Jubei Was Poisoned By The Old Monk And The Only Way To Cure It Is To Make Love To A Poison-Spreading Female Ninja Named Kagero (Giggety). Plus The Last Scene When He Faces Off With Gemma (BANG YOUR HEAD!) Sending Him To His Golden Hell. The Setting Is Quite Unique With A Japanese Feudal Touch Into That You Don't See In Today's Anime Very Often. Why? The Characters Is, Of Course, Fondly Memorable. Jubei Is One Of Those Characters That Should Be On The Bad-@$$ List Next To Goku, Spike Spiegel From Cowboy Bebop, John "Sleepy" Estes (Sh#thouse) From Mad Bull 34, Cobra From Duh, Space Adventure Cobra & Attack On Titan's Captain Levi. The Old Monk Like, Wow, That Guy Is Insane. But It Actually Fits Him Pretty Well. Forcing Jubei To Stay Alive Before The Poison Pulls Him To His Death Bed. Let's Not Forget Kagero. Nice Body, Awesome Personality, Has Better Ninja Techniques (Better Than Naruto. *Coughs SAKURA Coughs*), And Overall, That She Would Be Perfect On Everybody's Waifu List (Even On A Body Pillow). The Animation Is Surprisingly Gorgeous. The Visual Effects Is Spot On, Perfect Frame Rate, The Fights Are Well Done, Like I Don't Know What To Say Else. Studio Madhouse Can Do No Wrong At All. The Dub Has 90s Written All Over It, And That's Why I Love It When It Come Old Anime That's Brought Over To The States During That Time. It's Like Music To My Ears. Overall, If You Want To See A Good Anime Movie About Ninjas, I Suggest That You, How Do I Put It, SEE THIS MOVIE! Either On DVD, VHS, Whatever. It's One Of The Best Anime Releases That MANGA Entertainment Has Ever Put Out Here Next To Ghost In The Shell, Dead Leaves, Read Or Die, New Dominion Tank Police, Perfect Blue, Blood: The Last Vampire (That Not Live-Action) Just Name To Name A Couple. Oh, And The Crack-Out Mad Bull 34 (But That's Just Me).Read full review

Original storyline

Great characters, each one could easily have a prequel or origin story made. I was getting tired of the redundant storylines in the early ‘90’s, and Ninja Scroll stood out from the rest. ~30 years later, I replaced my VHS copy with a DVD. For mature audiences only, a classic.Read full review

Setting the highest bar!

Compelling characters, solid translation ! “Tsai copied your bizarre ziggish form.” Still not sure about that word but brilliant action! This along with Cowboy bebop, and Samurai Champloo, top 3 EVER!

An Anime Classic

It’s an anime classic, right up there with Akira. From start to finish, the intensity grabs ahold of you and doesn’t let go.
