Jubei and Jubei have the same pronunciation, and those who have watched this movie and read the book "Yagyu Ninfa Taki" by Fuutaro Yamada will surely find that the character of the protagonist is somewhat similar to that of Yanagyu in the book.

Ninja Scroll is the same thing as Ninja Scroll or Ninja Scroll.

The Ninbo series is the most famous and successful series of Yamada Fuutarou.

In this series, it seems that the final ending of the female ninja named Yang Yan is not very good. For example, the one in "Koga Ninfa Tie". . Speaking of which, Koga Ninfa Tie has been comic, animated, and live-action movies, and it has become very popular.

Tooth God Genjuro, from the SNK game "Samurai Soul", in fact, the character of the entire movie is affected by the game, and Samurai Soul players can easily find familiar moves in the movie.

Undoubtedly, the characters of the Samurai Soul series are very impressive. The works of the masters of Shirai Kageji and Kita Chiri have influenced a large number of latecomers, and a large number of young manga, such as Rurouni Kenshin, Bleach, Naruto, are all present. Influenced by Samurai Soul to varying degrees.

On the other hand, a large part of Samurai Soul’s own creative inspiration comes from the literary works of Sima Ryotaro.

You see, the so-called culture is passed down in such a peaceful way.

Children nowadays may not be able to read the works of the two old grandpas, Fuutaro Yamada and Ryotaro Sima, but as long as they watch the animation adapted from the boy manga, they will definitely be influenced by this culture.

Okay, now let's turn our eyes back to the work itself of Jubei Ninfu Post, and take a closer look at the cast, you will be surprised to find that the art supervisor of this movie is called Hiromasa Ogura (Hiromasa Ogura)!

Who is Ogura Hiroshima? Check out his list of works:

    "Is the heart distorted because of poison?" The scale is large and disgusting, and those who are intensively fearful enter cautiously. Favor debts owed become love debts, and I would rather die than have sex. Hahaha...it takes time to digest this style of Japanese animation for the first time.

Ninja Scroll quotes

  • [Kagero has poised her sword at Dakuan's back]

    Dakuan: What are you planning to do?

    Kagero: The man you hired will die of poison soon unless you give him an antidote. You must tell me how to save him.

    Dakuan: Why ninja girl, you amaze me. Do you mean to tell me that... you're in love with him?

    Kagero: Old fool, he saved my life and I'm simply... returning the favour!

    Dakuan: [chuckles] I don't think so. Imagine a ninja woman who believes she's falling in love...

    [Kagero stabs through his hat]

    Dakuan: If you kill me, then he will die as well.

    Kagero: Hmm. Yes that's true, but your mission won't be accomplished either.

  • Kagero: Tell me - why did you join him, Jubei?

    Jubei: He hired me. For a hundred pieces of gold.

    Kagero: Will you do anything for money? A ninja for hire?

    Jubei: That's right. But it seems that he's beaten me this time.

    [shows her the wound on his arm]

    Jubei: You see, he trapped me. Looks like I'm gonna die of this poison in about half a day.

    Kagero: [gasps]

    Jubei: He also promised me an antidote besides the gold pieces. That's why I work for him. I can't back out now. You better go away while I divert their attention.

    Kagero: I couldn't do that. I would end up owing you another debt.

    Jubei: I can't sell your debt, okay?

    Kagero: Look, I told you, I don't take orders from you! And I'm ready to die at any given moment.

    Jubei: You don't have to convince me you're tough.

    Kagero: No?

    Jubei: Oh, damn it! It's this hot and damp air. I wish a storm would come so a shower would cool your head.

    [walks away and vomits blood]

    Kagero: You're in no position to worry about me.
