Synopsis

Ninja Scroll is an anime set in feudal Japan that tells the story of a ninja-for-hire who is forced into fighting an old nemesis who is bent on overthrowing the Japanese government. His nemesis is also the leader of a group of demons each with superhuman powers. The anime was written and directed by Yoshiaki Kawajiri and was originally released in Japan in 1993. The film didn’t make it to the US until 1996 where it quickly became one of the most popular anime movies ever. If this rumor ends up being true, it’s anyone’s guess as to whether they’ll still set it in feudal Japan or whether it will be modernized.
