Summary: IT AIN'T THE SEQUEL TO NINJA SCROLL BUT ITS JUST AS GOOD!!
Review: If your a Ninja Scroll fan this ain't the sequel. I own this DVD because i made that mistake, but let me tell you I DON"T REGRET IT!! It may not be the sequel but in my eyes its ranked right under it, and I've seen both ninja scroll and this. It has the quality of Ninja Scroll Action except its more gory and has more nudity (including a rape scene). The only thing that disappointed me was how it ended, it left u thinking "is that all?" but lucky they going to have a continuation of it and i'll gonna get that too. So even if your a Ninja Scroll fan, i still recommend it, i don't think you'll be disappointed, it won't match ninja scroll but it's JUST AS GOOD!(just better then Ninja scroll) hehe

Summary: ATTENTION!! THIS IS NOT THE SEQUEL TO NINJA SCROLL!!
Review: Many people confuse this release as being the sequel to the brilliant "Ninja Scroll." This is not the case. Firstly, the featured hero in Ninja Scroll was named Jubei Kibagami; Ninja Resurrection's hero's nome is Jubei Yagyu. Secondly, each film has a completely different writing and animation team, with Yoshiaki Kawajiri directing Ninja Scroll, and Yasunori Urata directing Ninja Resurrection. Many people make the mistake of comparing the two films as successor and predecessor. Please don't be one of them!

Summary: Why are people so hard on this film?
Review: I enjoyed it, I took it for what it was - a good action flick. Maybe people were actually offended by the religious themes in the movie? Maybe people bought this DVD thinking that it was Ninja Scroll 2 and are mad about that? Who knows...This DVD has a lot of entertainment value and I want to see the rest of the series when it comes out.

Summary: Absolute waste of time
Review: This is (I presume) a comedy. Could have been a good gag on japanime if wouldn't been too harsh and Ninja Scroll haven't been such a neat movie. The story is horrible (as it was supposed to be). The storyline is worthless (well, they made a point there). Characters are hollow and their development is sketchy and jumps as a mad rabbit (whatever). Final fight scene is a total embbarassment although funny. Graphics were taken from Ninja Scroll (mostly). Extra star goes for consistent efforts to embbarass otaku :-).

Summary: A disappointment...
Review: Knowing this was in no way related to Ninja Scroll, I went ahead and purchased it based on the good reviews it has gotten from folks who actually liked it. Good for them; they can watch it over and over. I found the story--what there was of a story--in both of the two shorts to be painfully inconsistant. For example, one historical character that is refered to will not commit suicide (and is consequently tortured) due to his Christian beliefs; however, another character (likely the most important character) is about to commit suicide in spite of his Christ-like status when the story (yet again) changes direction. No real character development occurs nor does any plot development for that matter. Now, about that animation... Well, if your idea of really slick animation is panning across stills done in a traditional Chinese (yes, Chinese) painterly style, then this film is for you. However, if you grade your animation by the fluidity of motion, the creativity of scene, and the life-like character of the fantasy created, I recommend you check out the Brothers Quay Collection. Of course, if you want to stick to the traditional ninja story with excellent animation, there is always Ninja Scroll.

Summary: Ninja Resurrection - Revenge of Jubei/Hell's Spawn
Review: this movie is just triening to be a copy of ninja scroll. if you want to see a go anime see ninja scroll, akira, wicked citey, ranmo 1 1/2, or records of the lodoss wars. not this crap the ation parts aren't even worth watching.

Summary: Misleading
Review: I saw this on VHS and the box clearly stated "Jubei Kibogame from Ninja Scroll" Once I got over the disappointment of having been conned into buying it I started to like the action. The story is pretty much garbage however. Only buy this if you want a little action. If you want some Ninjas with depth try Wrath Of The Ninja.

Summary: Not Ninja Scroll, and Not Samurai Showdown either
Review: I really did not like this DVD. I felt ripped-off to tell you the truth. Maybe because I had such high expectations. The violence is high, and yes there were a couple of 'naked time' scenes (with apolgies to Dana Carvey), but I came away from this anime feeling empty. First, on the VHS, the box said that it was Jubei from Ninja Scroll. Not so. This is the classical/mythical Jubei that is told of in legends. Kinda like Musashi. And, it is not the Samurai Showdown Jubei, despite the fact that they share the same name, and have an eyepatch. While Showdown modeled their characters (up to part two at least) after their historical counterparts, NInja Resurrection did none of this. THey just took the names and ran with it. Final Diagnosis: Not Recommended to anyone.

Summary: Simply awful
Review: If you loved "Ninja Scroll" go watch it again, and don't waste your time on this. It is simply awful. None of the action you expect. It all seems over-rehearsed. Moreover, there is more of a theological message in "Pulp Fiction" than in this failed attempt. Don't waste your time.

Summary: What a disappointment!
Review: When I heard that a sequel to Ninja Scroll was released on VHS, I eagerly waited for its release on DVD. As soon s it was released, I purchased a copy from Reel.com. I was so disappointed with this movie that I returned it the following day! Thank goodness Reel.com had a "no questions asked" return policy. The plot was practically non-existant. The little action that they had was poor. The overall animation was marginal at best. Save your money and time on something more worthwile.
