Movie Review: GOOD NINJA ACTION
Summary: 4 Stars
This is an overall good ninja action anime. The characters powers are entertaining and well developed and utilized. You find yourself rooting for a side as the action unfolds only to change sides as more of the story is revealed. some of the characters are similar to the classic ninja scroll but the story is all it's own. The only complaint i have to offer is that the pacing really bogs down in the middle but i was still drawn onwards in the story. Overall if your into period anime involving ninja's you really can't go wrong here.Movie Review: Worth twice the Price.
Summary: 5 Stars
The box set itself is the finest I own, but the contents make this an absolute jewel. This is wonderfully amazing stuff.
This work will pull the entire spectrum of emotions from you. Love, hate, anger, outrage, excitement, humor... and sadness. (Everything but boredom)
The characters are deep and inspiring.
The artwork is amazing.
The "Romeo and Juliet" theme is absolutely heart wrenching...
The music is seemingly rich with tradition. (I say seemingly because it sounds very traditional to me, but I'm no real judge of that type of thing.)
This is another amazing anime you really shouldn't miss.
The women are voluptuous, sexy, and strangely genuine for all of the fantasy that this anime demonstrates.
The men are heroic and majestic and again very honest for this class of animation.
I highly recommend this to anyone who can taste a "bitter sweet" story and bask in it. You have to be able to stomach high degrees of turmoil and human devastation at a very personal level to really appreciate this. The anguish and pain is in stark contrast to the backdrop of love and peace that our two lovers share and desire for their clans.
The families on both sides demonstrate amazing levels of warmth when dealing with their own people. Yet, they also display powerful aggression when confronting each other. This make them very human, and makes it easy to like even the most terrible characters.
This one is not for kids, and I think it may have left me emotionally scared for life... hehe
The story is rich and it also speaks to the horrors that people on the "front line" experience because of "the abuse of power" by those who pursue politics before compassion.
This is truly an anime that delivers on everything. The story, the creativity, a sense of belief, and an honest way of telling the story is very striking.
In this case "you get what you pay for" really doesn't do this justice... I think here you get MUCH, MUCH more than you pay for.
It is fantastic, do yourself a favor and get it. You will find it to be a remarkable journey.
Movie Review: Great action but clumsy story
Summary: 3 Stars
Um...this anime was in a talk once in Japan. At first, I held a rather high expectation from it, especially the action in this anime. No doubt, the action is terrific, but only at the beginning. As you might know that the characters are killed one by one. All the people with special skills were killed earlier than the other with less special skill and less action. I think the sturcture is, first action and gradually going to a deeper and more serious issue about the story. Unfortunately, when the story goes deeper, it becomes clumsy and sort of boring....Finally, it seems to turn out to be a 'great love story' out of no where meanwhile it gives up on the other contents, like some political issue and mystery in this story. Even though it has already stated that it has something about the relationship among the characters, it just does not have 'it' to reach my heart, especially for the 2 main characters. Besides, its sudden loss of action really drags it down for some extent. Definitely, I do not want to talk about the details and the ending. In general, the story seems to be incoherent and empty.
