I went into this with rather low expectations, I'm more into anime than Batman, big fan of the Yakuza games.
But this still delivered in a "fun stupid" way that's right on the mark for why I love stuff out of Japan.
Usually I don't like cell-shaded animation, but some of the character designs in this have a charme, the animation is nothing to write home about, but does its job.
Just don't take this too seriously, it's not supposed to be, it's the kind of "Sharknado" like guilty pleasure type of movie.
Had so much fun with it that it even got me to watch the "prequel", and tbh that was just "stupid bad", while this one hits the magic middle ground of "stupid good".

An improvement on the previous film that's seems to make fun at itself by getting Robin to voice some of the criticism that the first film received.
The storyline is easier to follow and you aren't left confused for too long before things connect and make sense but I would say that you should try your best to just enjoy this instead of questioning some of the nonsense. E.g. 'Batman would have figured this out by now' etc.
I'm not sure if this follows a comic book story line but it is very creative on a level above what we come to expect with alternative versions of people that aren't too far fetched.

I'd seen the earlier Batman Ninja, and while that wasn't my cup of ocha, I liked it well enough. I've been in Japan long enough to appreciate the anime way of doing things. It all comes down to either liking the way the animators do it over here--lots of posing, dialogue reveals, and over speechifying--versus the N. American way of letting the action deliver the goods.
Well, this movie is a mix of both. It starts off promisingly with the literal raining of Yakuza over Gotham and then it turns weird. The good part is that the film delivers an interesting look at what contemporary Japan is like vs an alternate Japan. The animation is also very decent, IMO, and I appreciated the detail.
However, the story is more than a bit muddled with a lot of pseudo-scientific terms tossed in. Additionally, the voices really aren't that great. I'm used to hearing Kevin Conroy's voice as Batman, and this actor was nothing like the best of the best that was Conroy. The other voices were all right, but nothing special.
I'm always up for a new DC animated flick, and while this is hardly the best DC movie around, it's also far from the worst. Call it an interesting take on parallel worlds.

I recently watched Batman Ninja vs Yakuza League (2025) on MAX. The storyline follows a mysterious void that opens over Gotham, sucking Batman and his legion of Robins into an alternate version of Japan inhabited by twisted versions of the Justice League. Some are allies, others are enemies-but to return home, Batman must find a way to separate the merged realities.
This picture is directed by Junpei Mizusaki (Batman Ninja) and Shinji Takagi (Steamboy), and features the voice talents of Koichi Yamadera (Ghost in the Shell 2), Molly Searcy (Gate), and Yûki Kaji (Attack on Titan).
The film presents some fun and original ideas, though it does borrow from familiar Justice League storylines. Some writing choices and character portrayals worked better than others. Personally, I loved the opening-it felt like a stylish blend of James Bond and samurai cinema. I especially enjoyed the portrayals of Red Hood, Nightwing, Robin, Diana, Joker, Harley Quinn, and Ra's Al Ghul. Superman and Green Lantern were serviceable, but Batman and Aquaman didn't quite land for me.
That said, the action sequences, the depiction of character powers, and the overall anime aesthetic were exciting and engaging. Each battle felt unpredictable, and the concept of Yakuza falling from the sky for nonstop showdowns was chaotic in the best way. I even appreciated how Batman and Superman ultimately shifted the tide.
In conclusion, Batman Ninja vs Yakuza League is a visually inventive and action-packed addition to the DC animated universe. It's far from perfect, but still worth checking out. I'd give it a 5.5-6/10.

Cliche anime tropes, flat voice acting, TERRIBLE animation...this has literally nothing to recommend it. Save yourself the pain and just skip it entirely. The worst DC animated movie I've ever seen (and I've seen them all!)
Normally, DC hits it out of the park with its' animated features, I simply cannot fathom how this made it past whatever passes for Quality Control over at DC... this movie was just plain terrible. And I don't just mean as a DC movie...stylistically it's meant to be an "Anime" style flick, but even by anime standards, which are typically pretty low, this movie is just embarrassingly bad.
If you think I'm being too critical...watch it, but don't say you weren't warned.

This movie was a lot of fun. The first one was ok, but this one was an improvement in every way. I loved that the writers figured out that the Bat Family is basically a science ninja team and ran with the idea. I loved all the 70's throwback stuff. I really loved how much the writers seemed to know the characters. All of the characters kept their core aspects and there was some pretty cool and creative uses of their powers, which I always like to see.
Definitely not a flick to take too seriously, but its a good time for sure.
The only thing I didn't get was the different art styles. In Batman Ninja the art style changed for dramatic effect but in this one it seems to just switch back and forth kinda randomly. Maybe its the switch between 2D and 3D animation? Not sure, but it was distracting.

Nonsensical plot with an utterly exposition crammed script, which somehow still manages to over explain the basics to the point of boredom inducing droning on, and simultaneously not explain half the arbitrary decisions/ occurrences/ logic of both the characters and moviemakers themselves.
Awful voice acting.
Jarringly random soundtrack/score.
Tries to be ironically tongue in cheek but just comes across as try hard and cringeworthy.
About ten minutes of decent shots/sequences/ideas drowned in an absolute shower of "throw everything at the wall and hope it all sticks" In the attempt to use EVERY POSSIBLE trope of anime EVER they ended up like Aesop's dog at the river.
COMPLETE FAIL. Don't bother.

Look, I get some will like it, but if you weren't a fan of Batman Ninja, save yourself the grief.
It's more of the same, but the characters are the Justice League turned into Yakuza family characters. So your Justice League characters anime'd up with over the top battles amongst themselves. Like the last one, as far as I can remember.
As somebody that enjoys the DCAU and Amime... this is a swing and a miss in my mind.
If you enjoyed the first one, you'll probably like this one too. Though the current rating sitting at a 6.1 suggests that there aren't too many that think this was worth the watch.

Batman vs. Yakuza 2025 is a trainwreck that should've been mercy-killed before it hit the market. The plot's a steaming pile of nonsense-ninjas, corporate gibberish, and a sushi joint detour that's as pointless as it is stupid. It's less a story, more a scriptwriter's cry for help.
Wonder Woman and Harley Quinn hijack the damn thing, turning it into their personal clown show while Batman sulks in the corner like a grounded kid. Their screentime's so bloated, you'll forget whose name is on the marquee. False advertising at its finest.
Batman's voice? Imagine a chainsaw gargling gravel-raspy, whiny, and borderline comical. Every word's a chore to hear, murdering any shred of menace he's supposed to have.
And the Justice League? A cheap, overstuffed gimmick that guts the dark, lean vibe of Batman's animated glory days. Aquaman and Flash crash the party, and suddenly it's a superhero circus nobody asked for. This isn't a movie-it's a middle finger to fans. Avoid it like the plague.

I just watched Batman: Ninja vs. Yakuza, and it's a damn mess. The animation looks like a half-baked sketchbook, hand-drawn and hand shaded, but unpolished as hell. It feels like they rushed it out the door without finishing the job. The dialogue is even worse, hands down the most brain dead stuff I've ever heard. It's so cheesy and poorly delivered it's almost a parody.
The storyline's meh. Barely enough to keep you watching, but nothing worth caring about. And Harley Quinn? What was she doing there? She's got no purpose, no fit in this ninja mess, and somehow she's leaping around like she's got powers. She's just a regular person. Her being there is pointless and stupid.
Give it a watch if you're bored, I guess. But between the sloppy, unfinished animation, lame dialogue, and Harley's random nonsense, it's pretty cringe. Don't expect anything great.
All in all it's still worth watching once. Just do it with a grain of salt.

If you haven't yet plunged into the chaotic brilliance that is *Batman Ninja vs. Yakuza League*, you're seriously missing out. This film is a wild fusion of DC's dark knight lore and the audacious flair of Japanese pop culture, resulting in an experience that's as unpredictable as it is exhilarating.
Picking up just a day after the events of its predecessor, the movie catapults us into a Gotham that's under siege by a "yakuza hurricane"-yes, you read that right. Yakuza henchmen literally rain from the sky, setting the tone for a narrative that's unapologetically absurd yet captivating. The plot spirals into a whirlwind of time travel and alternate realities, introducing us to inverted versions of Japan and twisted renditions of familiar heroes and villains. Imagine an evil Superman donning yakuza attire, complete with aviator sunglasses, exuding a menacing charisma that's hard to ignore.
The film doesn't just stop at flipping character alignments; it dives headfirst into a pool of anime tropes and Japanese cultural references. From impromptu musical numbers reminiscent of '90s enka ballads to over-the-top "Science Ninja Techniques," every scene is a testament to the creators' deep appreciation for Japan's rich pop culture tapestry. It's a love letter wrapped in satire, and it works brilliantly.
Visually, *Batman Ninja vs. Yakuza League* is a feast. The character designs are meticulously crafted, blending traditional yakuza aesthetics with the iconic features of DC's heroes. The action sequences are choreographed with a frenetic energy that's both dizzying and delightful, ensuring that viewers remain glued to the screen from start to finish.
In essence, this film is a masterclass in creative insanity. It's a cinematic rollercoaster that doesn't just break the fourth wall-it obliterates it. For those who can appreciate its audacious blend of genres and cultures, it's an absolute must-watch. And if you can't? Well, perhaps it's time to broaden your horizons and embrace the beautifully bizarre.

I was certainly not a fan of the 2018 "Batman Ninja" animated movie, but I still opted to watch the 2025 animated movie "Batman Ninja vs. Yakuza League", as I had the opportunity to do so.
But talk about a flaming heap of a mess of an animated movie.
Sure, there were elements to the storyline that was okay and had potential. So writers Kazuki Nakashima had some things right here.
But what ruined this for me was the fact that all the Japanese characters looked like they were drawn by an pre-teen using MS Paint. It was horrible to witness, and it just looked so bad that it ruined the entire movie for me. But at least Batman and Robin were drawn and animated in a proper manner.
This was a swing and a miss from directors Junpei Mizusaki and Shinji Takagi in terms of entertaining me, and I am never returning to watch this rubbish a second time.
My rating of "Batman Ninja vs. Yakuza League" lands on a generous two out of ten stars.

It felt like I was hearing an old 50's godzilla movie where voices are out of sync with the action and mood of the scene. And that was before the opening credits. Then the other voice actors "acting " started going down. Animation Graphics was great. One viewing was good enough only for curiosity. I really wanted to like this. Character personalities are different here. Damian is less serious and acts like a dumb kid. Maybe this was intentionally supposed to come across as a Saturday morning Pokémon cartoon. Good for hardcore Batman fans may like this. I liked Batman since the 60s this isn't for me.

This follow-up to the visually striking Batman Ninja expands its imaginative scope to the entire Justice League, delivering a Japanese reimagining that is both visually dazzling and brimming with creativity. Beyond its impressive animation and vibrant art style, the film joyfully embraces the quirks and nuances of Japanese culture and media, seamlessly blending them with familiar DC lore. The result is not only refreshingly original but also incredibly entertaining. Clearly, the filmmakers approach their subject matter with great respect and affection, creating a delightful fusion of East and West.

This puts DC comics back a long way compared to Justice League Doom, Justice League War, Batman: Assault on Arkham to name a few. It's a lot of corny dialogue and weird music. If you want the fans of DC to love the movie, you need to make sure are in depth with the storyline overall as being presented in DC format. Don't need the cartoonish storytelling that doesn't make any sense or unable to follow. I paid $20.00 for this trash and I am very upset with myself for not renting it first to see if I would like it. There is some people who like and that is their opinion. But if you are true fans and you follow DC , this not a true representation of this comic!

The film dives into an exciting new adventure, picking up right after the events of the first part. Batman's family is shocked to discover a drastic change in the world, directly affecting Gotham City.
Why is it good?
It masterfully blends anime and comic book cultures, packed with Easter eggs, action, and emotional, breathtaking scenes. While keeping Batman's signature intelligence and dark charm, the movie delivers a fantastic and engaging story. It's truly entertaining, and I highly recommend it-especially if you're a fan of anime and DC characters!
Why This Movie Is a Masterpiece This film is a perfect blend of two artistic worlds: the intricate, fast-paced animation of Japanese anime and the gritty, immersive storytelling of Western comics. The result? A visually stunning and emotionally captivating film that stays true to both Batman's legacy and the traditions of anime storytelling.
Here's why Batman Ninja vs. Yozaka is an absolute must-watch:
A Unique Cultural Fusion: The film seamlessly integrates the aesthetic and storytelling techniques of anime with the classic noir atmosphere of Gotham City. The animation is breathtaking, featuring dynamic fight sequences, bold colors, and strikingly detailed character designs.
Action-Packed and Emotionally Intense: From heart-pounding samurai duels to explosive ninja battles, the movie never has a dull moment. Yet, it also takes time to explore Batman's psyche, his struggles with destiny, and the weight of being Gotham's protector across different timelines.
Easter Eggs for Fans: Whether you're a hardcore DC fan or a longtime anime lover, the film is packed with hidden details, references to Batman's extensive lore, and nods to classic samurai cinema.
A Worthy Villain: Yozaka is not just another adversary; he is a compelling, well-developed antagonist with his own philosophy and code of honor. Unlike the chaotic Joker or the power-hungry Bane, Yozaka presents a challenge that forces Batman to rethink his strategies and face new moral dilemmas.

I'm not sure how WB always seems to mess things up when it comes to its animated DC movies. What is interesting is that WB actually stepped it up with its animation. I found the movie to be visually better than previous DC animated movies. However, where they previously had excelled, they completely failed with this movie. The animated DC movies usually provide a decent story with a well constructed storyline. This movie did not provide that. The story is a bit of a mess with an excess of anime cliches making one cringe while watching it. The voice acting is mediocre at best. The plot has more holes than a collander. The characters are 2 dimensional at best. So when I saw the quality of the animation, II was hopeful, only to have my hopes crushed by the lack of quality with everything else.

A sequel that has a great premise, but does not fully meet the expected outcome. With entertaining moments, decent battles, and variable animation that can be enjoyable.
"Batman Ninja vs. Yakuza League" has not had the same impact as its predecessor; however, it contains a decent narrative, but it left much to be desired at various moments. The movie has great successes where directors Junpei Mizusaki and Shinji Takagi shine. Giving anime and DC fans entertaining scenes filled with many references to some anime classics in general.
The film has an aspect that becomes very important as the minutes go by, and that is its animation. Which is quite decent, but has its ups and downs in terms of quality, where for brief moments you can appreciate great sequences of movements and very well-executed special effects, but then you might find very significant details lacking in rendering or needing more polish in those line drawings for a better experience. You can also add that lack of connection through its plot with the viewer, as it can either captivate or disgust in just a few minutes.
In addition to that, the character design is variable; we have some very attractive ones and others not so remarkable, but that will depend on each experience.
The approach the movie takes on those thought-provoking messages to society is accurate from a logical standpoint due to its presentation, creating that parallel between fiction and reality. Covering themes such as justice, investigation, teamwork, friendship, knowledge, strategies, and camaraderie are well executed.
From my perspective, I think it could have been much better in terms of execution. It's an animated movie that is entertaining and passes just above average. It gives us small scenes that are very well done and visually appealing. One or two decent character designs and the importance of some in particular. Seeing a Batman vs. Superman match-up again will always be worth it. Wonder Woman and her ideals are among the best parts of the film. Great development.
Is it up to par with its predecessor? I don't think so, but there's not much difference between the two; however, the experience and success of the 2018 film were better.
5.5/10.

From my perspective, I think it could have been much better in terms of execution. It's an animated movie that is entertaining and passes just above average. It gives us small scenes that are very well done and visually appealing. One or two decent character designs and the importance of some in particular. Seeing a Batman vs. Superman match-up again will always be worth it. Wonder Woman and her ideals are among the best parts of the film. Great development.
Is it up to par with its predecessor? I don't think so, but there's not much difference between the two; however, the experience and success of the 2018 film were better.
5.5/10.
