Ninja Resurrection: le combat ultime de Jubei

This is not the sequel of Ninja Scroll,the main Character has the same name of the hero of NS but it´s not the same guy.

Actually it really was a period in the feudal Japan where Cristhians were persecuted,this religion was prohibited in that time in Japan,of course the wars between sects wasn´t so bloody and insane like the ones showed on this anime.

I think Ninja Scroll is much better than this one,recommended only for bloody-gore movie fans.

I really like anime and Ninja Scroll was something I remember very fondly. I had bought this a while ago and just came around watching it. This apparently is 2 episodes as the DVD says, but it feels overall like a teaser. I guess everything continues even after it ends (unless the world explodes at the end of a movie, there could be something you could tell in a sequel) ... but this really feels like a very sudden and abrupt end, that almost makes no sense.

I acutally rewatched or clicked on the DVD I own, just to make sure I didn't miss something. I also checked connections here and couldn't find anything coming after this. Though considering the rating I might try the movie this is based on. Maybe there is more to unpack and understand.

One more thing, because I saw this in two other reviews: this is not for kids! This is ultra violent and it has mature situations in it, as it states on the DVD cover too by the way. So maybe reconsider watching this or not - and don't blame the movie for being the way it is. Know what you're about to watch or stop watching if its not your type of movie anyways

The episodes exist without a definitive ending but I enjoyed this depiction of Christian rebellion in the Tokugawa period. The imagery was the strongest element of the episodes, the fight scenes were very good. Overlook the ending and marketing ploy fiasco and it's a decent watch

It seems that you will either hate this show or love it. The people that hate it seem to be people that are big anime fans to begin with and the people that like it seem to like only a few anime. One of my big problems with it, is that it only last two episodes, and it's clear that the story was suppose to be longer, because the show ends with no real ending. It only has two episodes, the first starts of goofy, with a Christian theme that makes you think you watching some bad Christian program for kids. By the end of the first show there is so much ultra violence and blood that you start to wonder if your watching to different shows. The second episode is pretty much just more ultra violence with some character development.

Also, one of the reasons that this show is so hated, is that it uses that same person that the "Ninja Scroll" main character was based on, who was a real historical samurai. Although neither film is realistic, it's kind of like give George Washington a motorcycle and machine gun, then having him fight zombies. Of course "Ninja Scroll" is a thousands times better then this show, but don't let that worry you, this show is still enjoyable.

ok people, let's get things straight. THIS IS NOT THE NINJA SCROLL SEQUEL!!! this is a different jubei, a different time setting, and a different storyline. about the storyline, it is just so damn spacious!!! at some points, i couldn't tell what the hell was going on until i watched it over and over. let me tell you somethin, though, the fighting scenes are cool, but the blood is a little to transparent. being brought back to life through sex is very interesting as well. the problem that mainly concerned me was the ending!!! it was like seeing the empire strikes back for th first time and wondering what happens next!! still, its worth looking at.
