Okay, so this is part one of a two-part OAV. I was pretty much bored with the story during the first 20 minutes and then repelled by the amount of gore and torture during the next 30 minutes. Then, just as I thought things were going to get cool, the credits roll...The dubbing was okay for the most part. If decapitation, gore and torture are your thing, then, this anime is for you. But if you're like me, there are better ninja anime (uh.. Ninja Scroll) to see instead of this.
