Ninja Scroll (্&#-1755;&#-3723;ਡ&#-2267;&#-51;੢&#-1435;&#-490; Jūbei Ninpūchō) is a Japanese action thriller set in feudal Japan anime movie by critically acclaimed director/writer Yoshiaki Kawajiri who was best known for his previous thriller Wicked City (Yōjū Toshi).
The movie was released on June 5, 1993 and received a western release on December 6, 1996. The movie was also released in some regions as Jubei Ninpocho: The Wind Ninja Chronicles. The Japanese title could be translated at "Jubei the Wind Ninja", although this is subject to debate as it does not account for the last part of the title. Ninja Scroll won the Citizen's Award at the 1993 Yubari International Fantastic Film Festival. Ninja Scroll is without a doubt, one of the most influential anime movies ever made, along with its rivals Akira and Ghost in the Shell. It is considered a masterpiece by many, seemingly describing samurai history with Japanese mythological creatures (Stone Golem, Blind Assassin etc).
The main character, Jubei Kibagami is a homage to the famed Japanese samurai folk hero Yagyu Jubei.
Rated: Australia: R, Canada: 18, UK: 18, USA: Unrated.
In 1995, the BBFC cut the UK version by approx. 52 seconds. This included a rape scene and images of imitable weaponry. The UK and Australian DVDs were affected by these cuts. In 2004 for the footage was reinstated and the movie in both countries was released uncut.
