Ninja Scroll (ç�£å…µè¡›å¿�風帖 JÅ«bee NinpÅ«chÅ�, "Jubei Ninja Wind Scroll") is a 1993 anime film by Yoshiaki Kawajiri set during the Edo period. It was one of Manga Entertainment's first major releases during the mid-1990s anime boom and did a lot to shape the early fandom as well as perceptions of the medium.The main story begins when a dying peasant girl staggers into the village next to hers and claims a plague has wiped out her village before collapsing. The area is promptly evacuated and quarantined, but the leader of the local lord's ninja force receives reports of a group of strangers seen in the wilderness around the village just before the plague outbreak and asks for permission to investigate.As the ninja squad makes their way towards Shimoda village, they're slaughtered by Tessai (Ryūzaburō Ōtomo), a giant of a man who can turn his skin into stone. Tessai only leaves alive a young woman, Kagero (Emi Shinohara), because he plans to rape her. But as he forces himself on her in an abandoned shrine, the protagonist, wandering Rōnin Jubei Kibagami (Kōichi Yamadera) comes across them. Jubei manages to wound Tessai in a brief fight and helps Kagero escape, but the duo parts ways afterward.Kagero returns to report the death of her squad and is promptly sent back to gather more information about the attackers. In the meantime, Jubei is attacked by Tessai and then by another strange member of the group of super ninja that Tessai is a part of: the Eight Devils of Kimon. Jubei is saved from one of these attacks by Dakuan (Takeshi Aono), a crazy old man who works as a government agent tracking the Eight Devils. Dakuan asks Jubei to help him, but Jubei refuses until Dakuan traps him in a Poison and Cure Gambit before revealing a startling piece of information: the leader of the Eight Devils is Himuro Genma (Daisuke Gōri), a man Jubei has some history with—and whom Jubei insists he killed years ago.Jubei's only chance of survival lies in defeating the Eight Devils of Kimon and retrieving the antidote he needs, and working together with Dakuan and Kagero (after they encounter each other again) appears to give him a greater chance of staying alive. Even for a Master Swordsman, though, taking on the rest of the Eight Devils and their schemes is a formidable challenge as the Devils turn all of their considerable power to wiping out the three protagonists.Ninja Scroll was inspired by the ninja-themed Historical Fantasy novels penned by authors like Futaro Yamada and Takeshi Narumi, and is essentially a big Homage by Yoshiaki Kawajiri to them and their genre. Contrary to popular belief, it is not an adaptation of Yamada's The Koga Ninja Scrolls or any other work.A sequel anime series was released years after the film's release. A big-screen sequel was announced in 2005, as well as a potential live-action adaptation, but both have languished in Development Hell ever since. | |

Rape as Drama | |
Ninja Scroll / int_12dd1d4c | comment |
Rape as Drama: When Kagero resists Tessai's attempts to rape her, he flat-out tells her he wouldn't mind raping her corpse instead. Shijima molests Kagero, but whether it's part of establishing his mind control over her, for his own twisted kicks, or both is never made clear. | |

Ninja Scroll / int_1b5fa24a | comment |
The Brute: Tessai is an enormous, heavily muscled man who is Nigh-Invulnerable in a sword fight due to his ability to turn his skin to stone, and thus favors simple, unsophisticated force. Somehow he's also able to move with the grace and agility of a ninja, which is fairly mindboggling. | |

Ambiguous Situation: Kagero has a troubled and distraught expression when she sees Chamberlain Hyobu is having sex with a woman while giving orders. Is she upset by the Chamberlain liking courtesans? Is she disgusted by the older man humping one in front of her? Is she upset that he's reacting so casually and disrespectfully to the news about the deaths of her comrades? Considering how Kagero sees herself as a mere tool to be used by her lord, is she jealous of the courtesan? Or, considering she cannot have sex at all due to her poisonous body, is she simply jealous of anyone who can? | |

Crapsack World | |
Ninja Scroll / int_21d70919 | comment |
Crapsack World: This is a Japan where the ninja aren't just skilled spies, they're legitimate supernatural monsters that come out of nowhere, resurrect from the dead, betray each other left and right, pop out of the shadows to molest you, disguise themselves as normal people to trap you with venomous snakes, poison whole villages, rape you or your corpse and display barely even practical concern when all their friends, lovers, and family die in one evening because, by then, they've seen and done so much that the darkness of the loss and insanity of it all doesn't even faze them at that point. In this world, you literally have to break the laws of nature just to survive. No thank you. The legitimate side of the setting doesn't come off any better; vicious and often lethal political intrigue is everywhere, with dishonorable conduct and self-serving actions being the expected course of every authority figure or government agent encountered. Human lives are a cheap commodity, with mass death being carelessly waved off. Just to drive it home further, there is one, ONE moment in the entire movie that has unabashed happiness in it. It's the villager who cheerfully tells his neighbor that the storm made his wife go into labor and now he has a ninth child, and even this moment is cut short because a damn corpse wanders in under control of one of the devils to tell them that a plague has wiped out the neighboring village. | |

Chekhov's Gun | |
Ninja Scroll / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: The wire attached to Jubei's sword, which he can use to pull the sword into his hand when it's been knocked away from him. During Jubei's battle with Utsutsu Mujuro, Kagero tries a sneak attack and embeds one of her short swords in a bamboo pole. That sword then comes in handy when Mujuro attempts a killing blow on Jubei, only for Kagero's blade to deflect his attack, allowing Jubei to kill him. | |

No-Holds-Barred Beatdown | |
Ninja Scroll / int_25524784 | comment |
No-Holds-Barred Beatdown: The final fight between Genma and Jubei is easily one of these, with Jubei mostly on the bad end of it. He only has a chance to strike back because Genma draws the beating out and Jubei starts finding opportunities to fight back. He survives by sheer determination, a well-timed collapse of support timbers as the burning ship begins to break apart, and a wave of molten gold engulfing Genma. | |

Carrying the Antidote | |
Ninja Scroll / int_38bbe8c3 | comment |
Carrying the Antidote: This trope is subverted; Jubei thinks Dakuan is doing this, so he attempts to Cut The Knot by hitting Dakuan with the same poisoned shuriken that Jubei was wounded with. Unfortunately for Jubei it isn't actually the same shuriken; Dakuan had already thrown away the poisoned shuriken and replaced it with an ordinary one, either out of an abundance of caution or because he believed Jubei might respond the way he did. | |

Pun-Based Title | |
Ninja Scroll / int_3eb0f889 | comment |
Pun-Based Title: The Japanese title Jūbei Ninpūch� is a play on Ninp�ch� (literally "Ninja Arts Scroll", but more often translated simply as "Ninja Scroll") a term used frequently in the titles of the novels which inspired the movie. Most directly, it's a reference to Yagyū Ninp�ch� (which starred the famous historical samurai Yagyū Jūbei). | |

Faux Action Girl | |
Ninja Scroll / int_40217655 | comment |
Faux Action Girl: Subverted in Kager�’s case. Despite being a well trained kunoichi, she's never able to stand toe to toe with any of the film's villains, save for perhaps Benisato. However, her male partners Jūbei and Dakuan are not any better themselves at it, and more often than not it’s thanks to Kager� that Jūbei survives his closer encounters, be it directly or by accident. Also, although she puts up a front of not needing anyone’s help, Kager� is explicitly stated to be just a poison taster in her very first field mission, which means she's not experienced enough to be called an Action Girl in the first place. | |

He isn't a single coin richer and his heart is broken due to Kagero's death. | |

Honor Before Reason: When he sees that she is reluctant and at least somewhat unwilling, Jubei refuses to sleep with Kagero despite knowing the act would cure him. They eventually do kiss just before she dies. In a flashback, we see that when Shinjuro's clan has outlived its usefulness, Genma played a Batman Gambit, ordering them to kill Jubei. Jubei lampshades this while begging for their lives. They don't listen to him, attack, and end all dead. | |

Love Dodecahedron: There is a minor subplot of the strange love rectangle between Yurimaru, Zakuro, Genma, and Benisato. Zakuro is hot for Yurimaru (who is gay, sleeping with Genma, and not exactly gentle with letting Zakuro down), while Genma is also sleeping with Benisato, much to Yurimaru's chagrin. For these characters, Love Hurts. | |

Body Horror | |
Ninja Scroll / int_504a1991 | comment |
Body Horror: Good God. All over the damn place, but noteworthy examples include... Benisato stuffing a nun's corpse full of snakes and using it as a puppet—the serpents burst out of the nun's eyes and mouth to disturbing effect. Mushizo's hunchbacked for a good reason—he's got a goddamn hornet hive fused with his back, and we see them emerge from it. Oh, and they start stinging him from within after he plunges into a pond, and they're trying to escape the water. Zakuro taking the corpse of Kagero's former leader and stuffing it full of gunpowder as an explosive trap for Jubei and Kagero. The result is a stitched-together mess of a body that's still missing its arms, with its eyes and lips sewn shut. Genma recovering from mortal injuries is rather graphic, from Jubei headbutting the crown of his skull inward to being cut partially in half from the waist up. And that's not counting what he looks like after being caught in a tidal wave of molten gold... | |

What Measure Is a Mook?: The Koga ninja clan is regarded as expendable; their lord regards their slaughter with irritation, since they didn't do their job properly. | |

Ninja Scroll / int_5300b1de | comment |
Invincible Hero: Subverted with Jubei. The Action Prologue and his first encounter with Tessai seem to point toward Jubei being this, and while he kills regular ninja mooks by the truckload, he is clearly overwhelmed by the presence of more exotic enemies. When he battles the Eight Devils of Kimon he only barely manages to defeat them, in many cases due to help from others or just sheer luck, and he also tends to get beat up pretty badly in the process. | |

Divided We Fall | |
Ninja Scroll / int_56d5b88f | comment |
Divided We Fall: This is in play among the bad guys. Yurimaru is upset over the fact that Benisato is sleeping with Genma, so when Kagero gets the drop on Benisato he takes the chance to kill her for her failure, despite the fact that she still could have been a major threat to Jubei at least with minimal effort. Later when Zakuro is upset with the way Yurimaru has coldly rebuffed her, she uses one of her Action Bombs with the intent of blowing both him and Jubei up. Yurimaru had been on the edge of torturing and electrocuting Jubei to death, but the distraction lets Jubei get away and only results in Yurimaru's death. The infighting among these villains saved the good guys a lot of trouble. | |

Not Distracted by the Sexy: Pay attention to Benisato's introduction. While Jubei is making small talk, he's also readying his sword for the draw. He's instantly suspicious of the tattooed, attractive woman that he's never met before who slips into the hot spring with him while saying in an alluring voice that he reminds her of someone she's looking for. | |

Badass Normal: Unlike the Devils, Jubei doesn't have any special powers, which means he must rely on his basic skills and his wits to come out ahead. That said, Jubei has the ability to perform an iaijutsu draw which can apparently strike an enemy or object that is beyond the actual range of his blade, though it might be just a really fast hit-and-run attack and not a straight supernatural technique. | |

Vicariously Ambitious: Genam knows that a ninja's life is regarded as even more worthless than that of a peasant's in Feudal Japan, and therefore even with his Complete Immortality he will never be legitimately recognized as an Emperor no matter how much gold he has. Therefore, he settles instead to use the blood-money of Shimoda village acquired by his monsters to buy an army of Ninja so massive and well-armed that any legitimate government, regardless of dynasty, will have no choice but to be figureheads puppeted by his absolute word from the shadows, making him the true ruler of Japan. | |

Fridge Logic: An In-Universe example. After Kagero reports on the destruction of her ninja squad, the Chamberlain immediately dispatches her once again to the area of Shimoda village to gather information about the attackers who did this. It makes sense on the surface that he'd want her to gather that information... but when Jubei hears this he points out the crucial logical hole by wondering what the hell the Chamberlain expects Kagero to accomplish by herself after the attackers massacred her entire squad and made it look easy. It's a little bit of foreshadowing about the fact that Genma has pulled a Kill and Replace on the clan Chamberlain. | |

Oh, Crap!: A lot of them. Kagero when Tessai rips Hanza's arms apart and captures her. Tessai when Jubei blinds him in the eye. Jubei when Tessai corners and punches him. Tessai when he realizes that his skin is starting to crumble and later when his own boomerang sword comes back to kill him. Jubei when Benisato uses her snakes to entrance and then kill him. Kagero has a moment of terror when Genma runs her through with a sword while posing as the chamberlain. Yurimaru, while electrocuting Jubei, sees a rat wander into the room and collapse, displaying sutures on its belly. He connects the dots (floor covered with black powder + Zakuro's remote bomb = BOOM) when it's far too late. Zakuro has her own when confronting Dakuan in the hold of Genma's ship. She hacks open his sake gourd when he throws it at her and asks if that's all he's got. "Not at all," Jubei replies and drops a lit candle into the pool of flammable alcohol at her feet. There's one a split-second before this; Dakuan is about to light the fuse to blow up Zakuro when a thrown knife slices the wick on his candle. | |

Later on, he hypnotizes Kagero with the same technique and sends her after Jubei. Benisato slips snakes into the body of a dead nun and uses her as a mouthpiece before setting the snakes loose on Jubei. Zakuro can fill corpses with gunpowder, turning them into stitched-together, zombified Action Bombs. | |

The Hero Doesn't Kill the Villainess | |
Ninja Scroll / int_bc252ea0 | comment |
The Hero Doesn't Kill the Villainess: Benisato isn't killed (or even defeated) by Jubei; after Kagero takes her captive Yurimaru kills her remotely due to failing too many times. Jubei kills every other Devil of Kimon except (ironically) Yurimaru, who is killed by Zakuro, the other female member of the team. note While Zakuro is killed by Jubei, he does it by letting her own bombs blow her up instead of chopping her to pieces with his sword. | |

Accidental Hero | |
Ninja Scroll / int_bd1faab9 | comment |
Accidental Hero: Utsuru Mujuro has Jubei dead to rights in their fight before Kagero tries to save Jubei by backstabbing Mujuro; the attack fails and leaves Kagero's blade stuck in a bamboo tree. When Mujuro later attempts a killing blow on Jubei, his sword hits against Kagero's blade (which he can no longer track by his hearing). Jubei doesn't waste the opportunity, and Mujuro dies wondering how, as far as he can tell, Jubei blocked his sword and stabbed him simultaneously. | |

Juggle Fu | |
Ninja Scroll / int_c1b4fef8 | comment |
Juggle Fu: In Jubei's introduction and Establishing Character Moment, he simply had to take care of three disgruntled assailants before he could finish eating his rice-ball. So, he tosses said rice-ball straight into the air as two of his would-be murderers leap into him, blocks the first with his sheathed sword and knocks him silly with a headbutt, takes his spear and smashes the second incoming idiot unconscious with it, then cuts the pistol of the third in half and sheathes his sword in one fast motion so fast the audience couldn't see it, and then opens his hand and catches the rice ball, nonchalantly finishing his lunch afterwards. It's as badass as it sounds. | |

Irony: The death of Utsutsu Mujuro is rather ironic: after saying Jubei's sight was a weakness, Mujuro is killed because he couldn't see a knife stuck in a bamboo tree (which deflected his attack and gave Jubei the chance to deliver the killing blow). | |

Hope Spot: Not long after Dakuan cynically suggested that Kagero's clan might not make any attempt to stop the Eight Devils (due to not wanting to be the small clan that gets squished between the shogunate and the Toyotomi, the exiled former rulers who hired the Eight Devils), the Chamberlain and his samurai come riding into town and face down the ninja mooks working for the Eight Devils... and then we find out that Genma killed the Chamberlain several days earlier and has been using his powers to impersonate him when he suddenly stabs Kagero in the back. | |

Mushizo also attempts this by using a Last Ditch Move... twice in a row. He tries to spear Jubei after he falls into the water, and when Jubei blocks that attack with his sword, the wasp-user spits out a poison needle from his mouth (which Jubei manages to block with his sword's handle). | |

Ninja Scroll / int_cb70651c | comment |
Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: It's never clear if Jubei's iaido technique is a regular but very fast attack or an actual supernatural skill. His battle against Tessai suggests a possible mundane explanation (he has a wire attached to the sword which might serve to throw and recover the sword quickly to hit faraway targets), but his battle with Mushizo points to the other (he somehow manages to cut the root on which the demon is standing despite Jubei being several feet underwater, making it appear to be a Razor Wind Sword Beam). | |

Action Bomb: Zakuro's MO. She turns the leader of the Koga ninjas into one to attack Kagero and Jubei. Later she uses a rat that she has turned into such a bomb in an attempt to kill both Yurimaru and Jubei, succeeding only with the former. Her fate, ironically, is to virtually becomes one herself, as Dakuan splashes oil all over her and Jubei sets her on fire, causing all the gunpowder she always carries around to explode. | |

The Load | |
Ninja Scroll / int_e68b72 | comment |
The Load: Despite traveling with talented comrades in the movie and TV show, Jubei pretty much ends up doing all the work and killing most everyone. It seems pretty pointless in the movie, when he's fighting Utsutsu, that he calls out "This one's mine!" when they've pretty much all been his. He kills six of the Eight Devils of Kimon, with the other two lost to betrayal from their own brethren. Subverted, however, in that his comrades in the movie have their own contributions. Dakuan's Rubber Man and camouflage abilities make him good at infiltration. Kagero ends up making all the difference in three of Jubei's confrontations with the Eight Devils—her status as a Poisonous Person has a delayed effect on Tessai that weakens his stone skin; she ambushed Benisato when her snakes had Jubei at her mercy; and her kodachi getting stuck in a bamboo tree blocked Mujuro's sword and gave Jubei the opening to land the killing blow. | |

Can't Have Sex, Ever: Kagero's body absorbs poisons instead of processing them.

Tessai finds out the hard way. | |
