Ninja Kamui

This anime series commences with an impressively rapid pace, immediately captivating viewers with its stunningly executed opening sequences. The blend of dynamic action and strategically placed quieter moments skillfully outlines the foundational premise of the story. As someone relatively inexperienced with the anime genre, I found the quality of the animation to be exceptionally high, showcasing the meticulous attention to detail and artistic expertise inherent in this medium.

However, I did observe that the narrative setup seemed somewhat rushed. As a newcomer to anime, I would have preferred a more gradual introduction to the storyline, allowing for a deeper immersion into the world and its characters. Despite this, the swift pacing did not significantly detract from the overall objective and allure of the episode.

Moreover, the power system introduced, while only glimpsed at first glance, appears to hold substantial promise. It suggests a depth and complexity that I anticipate will unfold as the series progresses. This aspect, along with the intriguing narrative and visual excellence, contributed to an overall enjoyable viewing experience. I am eagerly looking forward to exploring the subsequent episode and further understanding this anime's unique universe.

This ninja anime is ideal for fans of action and fights, but if you're looking for anything else... you won't find it here.

Simple, classic, and predictable story. Well-animated battles, but with a total lack of explanations and arguments about their techniques.

Basically, this anime wants to ignore or simplify any lore to the maximum. It relies entirely on introducing characters you know nothing about, but who have some striking aesthetic feature, so the protagonists can smash them (or not).

Excessively simple and straightforward for my taste, but with decent production and a very clear understanding of its target audience.

Those who like it will think it's amazing, while others might even find it bad. I've decided to stay in the middle; in the end, it entertained me.

I can't stand when anime is rated differently from movie or TV shows, why do basic standards get lowered just because it's anime? I had really high hopes that it would be a really cool show about an assassin, it's visually beautiful, but everything else is such a let down. Here's why:

1. The storyline is so basic and slow. I'm 7 episodes in and nothing has any real purpose. It's just a guy looking for revenge in the most boring way possible, sprinkled in the typical dumb cop that thinks his gun will eventually work against ninjas running at 200mph.

2. The main character is boring. You cant connect with him. There's nothing about him that's interesting, he just wants revenge. He's too much of the teenage silent, but edgy trope.

3. The other characters are just there. They offer nothing of worth to the show. They don't have any personality that makes you route for or against them. Some flashbacks are meant to be sentimental, but, again, there's isn't a character worth putting emotion into.

What made people like John Wick were the fight scenes. There are some cool fight scenes, but more talking about nothing than fighting or interesting background information.

Knowing sunghoo Park is directing Ninja Kamui really made our hopes high, but they did nothing to keep the audience invested totally mid after first two episodes.

Just a John wick anime adaptation at best, now the 2nd season is announced hope they did better than that CGI they used.

But Not gonna lie the first two episodes the hand to hand combat the storyboard the production was very good they were really invested the voice acting from The best Kenjiro Tsuda really do catch my Interest But All we can do is hope what's in store for the future for this anime original fingers crossed.

Overall 7/10 show.

When this show first aired, it was really damn good. Top tier animation, not corners cut, an interesting story. As it has progressed, however, it's now CGI-ridden trash. Without spoiling, the combat went from beautiful animated ninja fighting to something that is not at all to the same quality that the show started with and now relies almost entirely on CGI to function. That CGI is noticeable and bad.

The story is interesting and compelling, although possibly a bit generic and predictable. But with the current level of animation, I'm no longer interested in watching. At episode 8, I just skimmed and decided I was no longer interested. It's truly a shame considering how good the first few episodes are, but the quality has plummeted, and the show is now just kind of bad. Not worth watching.
