About Wrath of the Ninja

If you are hunting for a new action series, Wrath of the Ninja (戦国奇譚 妖刀伝 劇場版) deserves a look (1989). The setup goes like this. The premise: The year a comet races across the sky, splitting the heavens, from the depths of the Earth the dark god shall arise once again. Then, the dark evil lurking in the shadows shall come out of the depths of Hell and show itself in the present world.

Further in, the emotions of the blade of the wind shall collect at the source of the blue light. The three blades shall become one, vanquishing evil. The year is 1580, and the unholy armies of Lord Nobunaga Oda steadily spread across Japan.

With action at the core, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Voice work is led by Keiko Toda as Ayame Hayami and Kazuhiko Inoue as Hayate Sakon. Think of it as a pick for viewers who like fast, high-impact fights. With 1 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.

Production & Appeal

Animation is handled by J.C.STAFF, so the studio's house style defines how Wrath of the Ninja looks and moves on screen. The action focus matters here: fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Its 5.6/10 score suggests opinions are split, so it suits viewers who already like the genre. Voice casting, including Keiko Toda as Ayame Hayami, adds to the appeal for fans who follow seiyuu. Released in 1989, it competed with that season's other new series for attention.
