Summary: The new standard of mainstream anime
Review: This movie straight up dazzles. When I saw the movie the first time, I was with experienced anime viewers, and we all loved it. We burned our popcorn because we forgot to get it, we were so glued to the TV!The story is epic, the plot is out of this world, and the characters are really developed well. There is no real cheesy parts to this film like some anime has in it. It's a masterpiece of entertainment, and I show this movie to all the people who do not know about how good animated films. They almost always go away happy I showed them this film.

Summary: The watermark of anime.
Review: Most reviewers of this film seem to be extreme anime fanatics. I was not. I saw Akira a few years back and counted it among my favorite movies, but hadn't seen any more anime until very recently when I heard that Ninja Scroll was even better. I rented it... and within minutes of turning it on, my jaw dropped and stayed there. Artwork. Voice-overs. Story. It all draws you in immediately. This is a very smart piece of work made for adults! I love Sci-Fi and Fantasy, and have always believed that anime was by far the best way to put it on screen. But unfortunately, when left in the hands of Americans producers concerned only with making money- the movie gets "dumbed up" so everyone can understand it, and/or made "safe and silly" so kids will want to see it. Ninja Scroll does not. This is hard-hitting fantasy at its best. It has ninjas. It has demons. It has blood. It has curses. It's sexually explicit. It's not for the timid. It will forever change your opinion of "cartoons." Provided the words "ninja" or "fantasy" don't make you roll your eyes- you just can't go wrong with this movie. I haven't seen anything like it since.

Summary: It won Japan's Best Film of the year award for a reason
Review: Seriously, this is excellent animation. The plot is interesting and you have to pay attention. If you hate the plot, the animation is excellent. If you hate the animation, you have serious issues. I really enjoyed the fight scenes because there is so much more that can be done with animation than with live actors. Watch it for the plot and the animation. Take it for a great story with great animation.

Summary: Action, Intrigue & Deception At It's Best In Anime!
Review: Ardent anime buffs of magniloquent action, killer-designs & some of the best animation outside "Otomo's" cyberpunk classic "Akira" are in store for a real treat. It's "Kurosawa" meets "Kawajiri", in his own stylistic film version of a lone wolf's encounter with some of the most diabolical demons this side of the anime realm. Jubei Kibagami is a vagabond samurai were you'd least expect it coming out of a film drenched in a quality so stylishly outlandish. However, this description hardly does justice to a surprisingly engaging film full of action, intrigue & unexpected kinky romance done to the extent of excellence; as could only exist in animation film making. Whether you're just starting or continually developing an anime collection of your own, "Ninja Scroll" is a definitive choice for DVD. One that appeals to the most fervent ninja/action fan, as well as those ready for it's heavy-handed nature. Like it or hate it, but nonetheless be amazed at this film's often faultless style; which is non-stop excitement from beginning to end.

Summary: Stunning Ninja Action
Review: This movie is problebly the best manga movie after Akira. This movie has an enjoyable story, lots and lots of blood, and the animation is realistic. the character Jubei is an samuarai who you can hire. By saving a ninja girl the problems start and he has to face the 7 demons of Kimon with a old enemy off Jubei as the leader. What can I say more about this movie; it's as fast as Jubei's sword .

Summary: This thing should have like a hundred stars
Review: Ninja Scroll is the most complete anime I've ever seen. First, it has superior animation. Second, its completely serious tone. No silly, giggling girls who ruin scene after scene. Third, an actual storyline. Ninja Scroll has the depth of plot and emotion that is pretty much non-existant in Japanese anime. I higly recommend this movie to everyone.

Summary: Animated masterpiece
Review: If you want to see what makes a great anime film, you don't have to go beyond Ninja Scroll - It's ultraviolent, fun-to-watch, and inventive movie. Set in Feudal Japan, the film follows the character of Jubei, a masterless ninja for hire, as he finds himself in the middle of a conflict he wants nothing to do with. A mysterious disease has wiped out the town of Shimota. A band of ninjas sets out to investigate reports of a band of men who fled the town shortly before everyone died. As they approach the town, a rock-like creature slices the entire band apart, save for Kagero, a female warrior, whom he captures and rapes. Jubei saves her and finds himself attracted to her. Alas, she cannot be his as she is literally poisonous. Jubei strikes out on his own again and his approached by Dakuwan, a elderly ninja spy. Dakuwan explains that the rock monster that attacked the ninjas was a Devil of Kimon, of which there are seven more. Dakuwan poisons Jubei and promises to give him the antidote only after he helps Dakuwan find and kill the remaining Devils of Kimon. The fight scenes are absolutely top-notch. The video's boxcover promises a "bloodbath" and that's no exaggeration at all. Arterial spray is present in virutally every fight scene. As is the case of most anime I've seen, this isn't for kids. Along with the blood, there's quite a bit of sexual content too. The film's not rated, but it would probably earn an R rating. The screenplay is the work of Yoshiaki Kawajiri, who also directed. He succeeds in bringing a fair amount of emotional backdrop to the story, as these characters have more feelings and motivation than many Hollywood big-budget movies' characters ever do. This film is highly suggested viewing.

Summary: A great film
Review: Let me begin by saying that this film is not for the timid. Anime has always shown a tendency to be quite violent, but this film is possibly one of the most violent anime films on the market. My friends and I found ourselves rewinding the tape several times while saying, "did I really just see that." The animation is great, and the storyline is more complex than you would expect. While Jubei is a great character, the real stars of this film are the villains with their various abilities and powers. If you havent done so, and you like this style of animation, then I think you will enjoy watching this film over and over again.
