In episode 7, it showed a flashback when Higan knew about Mari having their baby, he was not confident that he could be a good father. However episode 1 showed him being able to get along well with his child, like making fun on him, bathing with him, coaxing him to sleep, throwing him a decent birthday party. He could even sing a song while playing a guitar, showing how talented a ninja could be. That's what I found interesting about Higan, damn the ninjas who killed off his family.
After finishing the whole Ninja Kamui, reading a lot of critiques about the introduction of mech suits into this show, it provoked me to think about this. I think the concept is not bad at all, especially the usage of ninjutsu with the complement of futuristic technical devices is really awesome. The 2D action-packed scenes are dope with those hiphop background music to make ninjas so hot.
The 3D mech suit fights were not as fluent as 2D action scenes though, yet having ninjas using modern devices to aid their own techniques adds more flavours and diversity to the combats. Moreover, probing into the adaptation of conventional ninja into technological era in a revenge story is not a bad direction. I am looking forward to seeing more kinds of ninjutsu in season 2.
Im still surprised that a LOT of people hyped Sunghoo Park for his directing skills for Ninja Kamui. Even though his track record isn’t that deep or consistently good. But at the end of the day HOW DO YOU FAIL THE CONCEPT OF NINJA’S?! And I explain it in the video.
Seriously, what the title says. The show became a piece of crap, its like going from driving a mercedes for 2 hours, and when you wake up it turns into a a rusty old bicycle.
Like, moving like Higan, the gory fighting, all that. Imo, it's Ninja Gaiden. It even has the ninja arts. What do you think?
Currently writing this while on EP 7, idk if they explain this later but, so Emma was supposed to kill Marie for not being devoted or whatever but way later the ninjas catch mari and kill her so was Emma punished for failing? Or did they not know
Should I finish this anime ?
Any guesses to when it will release?
I'm wanting to watch the show in Dub, but I live in Australia. I am only able to find the first episode in Dub, but not much else. Obviously HBO doesn't stream in Australia and they do not do free trials. The Adult Swim system needs an American Cable network for me to join, just so I can watch it.
I have tried signing up to HBO through a VPN but it is shit and wont let me even try.
Does anyone here have any suggestions?
I finally got around to finishing this show and yeah, the ending was a huge letdown, hell, the whole show was going downhill but I guess I'm a masochist, because I just had to see it through. I have many questions about that ending, but my main one is what the heck is up with Zai's ending? Dude has one arm, half a burned face, no support system and zero social skills. How the hell is he supposed to go live a normal life now? New horizons for who? Certainly not Zai. They should've just let him heroically sacrifice himself in the final battle rather than letting him go off to a supposedly happy ending that is in no way gonna work out. The dude literally can't person. And Higan just left him. Again. Like, I am so confused. Who wrote this?
I saw a couple of hours ago a NINJA KAMUI prequel game on switch and wonder?
