But not nearly enough for me to actually have a good opinion of it. I chuckled a few times, was entertained for a little bit each episode. 13 episodes long, a little over 4 hours and i didn't want to finish it. It worked for Trigun, it doesn't work for Ninja Scroll.Įnjoyment: I almost didn't want to finish this series. I felt all the characters to be very Trigun-ish and when i looked it up, the character designer for Ninja Scroll was also the designer for Trigun. I mean sure, throw in a couple monsters, but.when every character except the main party are gets really boring. I'm not a huge fan of monsters in a ninja series, i like them to be more human. All enemy ninjas bored me, every single one of them. I never found myself rooting for any character because the outcome, I knew, was going to be the same. For people who have seen the movie you'll definitely recognize the monk and Jubei. I actually enjoyed the music in this, it did suit the feel of this anime.Ĭharacters: Here is where this anime fails miserably. Sound/Music: Honestly, when it comes to anime I believe that music is one of those subtle things that makes a great anime even greater, or a terrible anime much worse. Sometimes when I'm watching an anime (mainly Gankutsuou) I read the subtitles as quickly as possible so i can appreciate the art. didn't make my eyes carefully try to understand what I was seeing. Storyline progression isn't that great, I found myself in the 5th episode going 'is something going to happen?' Everyone wants to kill Shigure and there's only Jubei and two minor characters to protect her. In fact I don't even mind the story, it's interesting but not incredibly original. Story: This isn't where this anime fails. I was so ecstatic to watch what I thought would be an incredible series, to say I was dissapointed would be an understatement.

After watching the original movie and falling in absolute love with it I learned of the TV series.
