  Ninja Scroll - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ninja Scroll is among the most popular anime movies outside of Japan, along with such movies as Akira and Ghost in the Shell.
A team of Koga Ninja is sent to investigate a plague in Shimoda village, but on their way, they are violently slaughtered by a man; the only survivor is Kagero, their lord's poison-taster.
In North America, the Ninja Resurrection anime films were marketed as sequels to Ninja Scroll but were actually created by a separate animation studio.

 AAW: Ninja Scroll Review
Ninja Scroll is everything you'd expect from a gory anime ninja action movie--slick animation, lots of ninjas, a corresponding volume of blood, a big group of superpowered bad guys, a cool good guy to cut them into little pieces, a sufficient selection of strange erotic situations, and a convoluted plot.
But Ninja Scroll is more than just a ninja hack and slash flick that's got it all--by taking all the earmarks of a tried and true formula and nailing every one of them, it has distinguished itself as the quintissial entry in its genre.
The English title "Ninja Scroll" has little if anything to do with the original title, or the series--there isn't even a scroll in it (though in a stroke of irony, there is a different ninja movie that does involve scrolls, released a bit later--Ninja Mono, aka Ninja Cadets).

 Section 6: Anime page - Ninja Scroll
Ninja Scroll is the movie that managed to usurp Fist of the North Star as Most Violent Anime.
It is about a vagabond ninja name Jubei who is 'hired' to help defeat the Eight Devils of Kimon, who have been hired by the exiled members of the Toyotomi clan to help them overthrow the Tokugawa shogunate.
Jubei is accompanied by a female ninja name Kogero, who poisons anyone she touches, and Dakuwan, a strange old man who I believe to be the shogun of the dark.
