Movie Reviews of Ninja Scroll: The Series - Ultimate Collection

Movie Review: Do I like Ninja Scroll? Jubeitcha
Summary: 4 Stars

Ok dumb puns aside and cute character name usage discarded, this is a solid anime series if there ever was one and does what every series should do, leaves me wanting more. Is it perfect? No, but it's quite good. The formula for Ninja Scroll the series never varies much, plot moves along, Jubei meets enemies, you get chopped suei villains for breakfast lunch and dinner. Tons of innocents die so don't get too attached and there are quite a few surprise twists courtesy of Master Kibagami and friends. Characters are interesting although some are quite undeveloped, something quite common for some anime series including the still excellent Ninja Scroll movie. The artwork is excellent unlike some other series that felt rushed (Record of Lodoss War: Tales of the Heroic Knight). The fight scenes are excellent and you can't help but love the action even if the plot is not the most amazing. Regardless of its short comings, this is still excellent anime and if you want to check out something that isn't live acting and worth the price of admission, this is a fine fine choice.

Movie Review: good series, but not the movie
Summary: 3 Stars

im a big fan of the ninja scroll movie. and so i thought i could buy the series and see wat its like. its a good series overall but dosent live up to the movie. the soundtrack and the animation are pretty good, and of course you have intresting and original cast of bad guys. but the ending leaves you hanging and Sucks really bad. it turned me off to the whole thing. i recommend renting this series instead, but if you really like ninja scroll then go for it.

Movie Review: Weird but good series.
Summary: 5 Stars

Long story short, this is a weird series. Both in terms of plot and in terms of character design. But, in the end, it works. I did end up enjoying the series despite its obvious quirks...

The final ending seemed like a little bit of a cop-out, but in general, the series was pretty good. Animation was "current" and fluid, story was relatively interesting even if it did seem to start slowly...

So, I'd give it a thumbs up for anyone who likes anime. DVD features are decent. Video was good, sound was good. If you like this title, you'll probably also like Legend of Himiko Complete Collection, Ys Legacy, among others.

Movie Review: AWESOME!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

When I bought this series I though it would continue from where the movie took off. I was wrong, but delightfully so. The story in the series is awesome!!! Its nothing like the movies, but the introduction to so many villans (deamons) and good guys presents a whole new out look at Jubei. He is still one bad dude in the series. I wouls Highly recommend this series to any Ninja Scroll lover!!! The action is just as awesome as the movie, and the blood is to die for!!! Five stars hands down.

Movie Review: Awesome!!!
Summary: 4 Stars

I saw this anime in school with acouple of friends of mine. I thought it was really cool. The story, blood and guts was awesome. This movie's not your typical saturday morning cartoon. It's mainly focussed for more of a mature audience'es. I don't suggest a 10yr old to watch the film.

This is also one of the animes that also got me into the whole anime trend. I had to buy it the next day because I liked it that much. The Story line is abit slow but not that solw. Also it's a bit of old schoolish, it has your 80's style animation. But this dosn't take away from the movie at all. I suggest buying the whole collection, you get your moneys worth. It has tons of extras. It's an awesome DVD set to add to your collection. You will not be disappointed.
