Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Rather funny series
The story of this two episode series follows Shinjuro, a skilled samurai. Who is left in charge of his father's dojo finds himself in deep trouble, now he is a target of the rogue samurai Mahoro Mikage who is rebelling against the Tokugawa Shogunate. Set during the Yoshimune Tokugawa reign, this story is all right, its rather funny. However the women of this series are not weak and are very skilled, one of the girls is deeply in love with Shinjuro, where the two can be like a comedic pair. If Shinjuro ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - It was decent. I've seen better, I've seen worse.
Not my favorite anime I've watched lately. But it was at least decent. If I had to choose between Ninja Cadets! and Samurai: Hunt for the Sword, I'd choose Samurai. If I had to choose between Samurai: Hunt for the Sword and Wrath of Ninja, I'd choose Wrath.

If I were rich and had my way, I'd probably go with Ninja Scroll The Movie & The Series - Ultimate Collection.

But, for what it's worth, I liked Samurai: Hunt for the Sword. I thought it was a pretty decent movie/show. I don't ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Not exactly one that makes you think but still good
In all fairness, this one is not one of the favorites in my collection. But it is still pretty good, and I do not regret buying it. The characters are not precisely memorable, but they don't put me to sleep either. And the story is there at least, which is more than I can say for some anime I've seen. The animation looks good, which is always a plus. ^_^

I am also unsure if this was meant to be a series or just this dvd. Perhaps it is like Angel Sanctuary--meaning that the company with the rights ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Too short
This Anime is really a good one, but the only thing is that its way too short. It left open a lot of things, like what happens to Shinjiro after the duel, do all the girls keep fighting over him???? And what happened at his fathers duel??? I really wanted to know that to know end. Another 30 min to an hour would have been really nice.
