 The Ultimate Box Set June 22, 2005

This box set is an ultimate treat for any anime lover, especially this Ninja Scroll fan. Since the release of The Series I have been anticipating a collection like this. And this was definitely worth the wait. The box set includes all 13 episodes of The Series along with a bonus disc. The bonuses are cool, but I really enjoyed the tour of Mad House, I'd love to work there.
The Limited Version includes a metal tin that's really cool and a really detailed action figure of Jubei, who looks ready to take on G.I. Joe. But the best part has to be the images on the interior case. They include several colorful depictions of Jubei in action, yes there is a lot of red ink.
I recommend this box set to any anime fan, especially all of you Ninja Scroll lovers. Even if you have some of the individuals, this box set is too cool to pass up and a definite centerpiece of any anime fans collection.....
Super series... August 18, 2005

This series, i think, follows on after the movie. Jubei, after desroying the eight devil's but losing Kagero, finds himself in yet another adventure as his swordsmanship has become famous. He promises a ninja to keep the sacred Dragon stone safe and to give it to the light maiden. But two waring ninja clans also want the stone. Now Jubei must keep the saftey of his new friends (including a return for Dakoan)and the Dragon stone until they find the light maiden. With superb animation, breathtaking battles, and a whole host of characters that really fit, this series has it all for the action anime/manga lover. A must have for all anime fans everywhere and i would definitley recomend it to anyone.
Buy it and enjoy.
Fantastic series, beautiful presentation June 23, 2005

This series is a great follow-up to the classic film. For those who love action, Ninja Scroll has that and more! Even beyond the many and varied monsters that the protagonist Jubei encounters, what's truly amazing about the series is the balance between action, drama, and humor. I've been watching anime for years, and I was still blown away Ninja Scroll TV!
Any fan of great packages will appreciate the treatment of the box set. The artwork (which you can't see from the outside) is gorgeous and vivid, and the Limited Edition version comes in a shiny silver case with a really sweet Jubei action figure. The bonus fourth disc has some cool stuff, the best being a video tour of Mad House Animation Studio, and the audio commentary tracks a close second. I'm really pleased with this set, and I recommend it to anyone who's a fan of either Ninja Scroll or cool anime sets in general.

This collection has everything. All three volumes, the series, an action figure, a bonus dics with extras features. Ninja Scroll was made in 1994. The artwork is perfect in this anime and they fight well.
