Description:
With Nasté and Jun providing technical and moral support, Ryo, Seiji, Toma, Shin, and Shu continue their adventures in these 1989 OVA sequels. In Gaiden, they're pitted against the sorcerer Shikaisen, who recalls Lord Arago in the broadcast series. The longer Legend of the Inferno Armor is set in Africa, where the quintet battles a mysterious warrior who fights with an outsized boomerang. But two suits of "Inferno Armor" that possess the warriors for their own purposes are the real villains in this drawn-out tale. Like the original Ronin Warriors, which aired in the U.S. in syndication in 1995, the designs, animation, direction, and storytelling feel very dated. It's difficult to believe these OVAs debuted the same year as Ranma 1/2. Ronin Warriors has vociferous fans in America, who constitute the obvious audience for these recycled sagas. (Rated 13 and older: violence, profanity, alcohol use, ethnic stereotypes) --Charles Solomon
