this is the basis for the movie "Shinobi: Heart Under Blade". also a great watch. check it out.

 

they both are based on the novel The Kouga Ninja Scrolls by Futaro Yamada

Compared to the live action version, this ending was way better. But the live action version IMO has better presentation, with a former Kamen Rider as Gennosuke.

the ending is classic, just the way it should be. i'd be disappointed with less since this whole story leads up to that moment, an expression of true love that surpasses all borders set by humans.

Now being serious, that ending was expected but i didn't like it very much... too many deaths for that ending? Not worth it. I want to gennosuke to go berserk xD

Now this is a story where the ending doesn't feel like it's there just for some needless drama!

Way to copy Romeo and Juliet.

There were many stories with same story before even shakespear's drama came up :/

For a tragedy. The end made sense and is definitely heartbreaking though extremely satisfying.
If the romance plot was dragged out more, like at the beginning before the treaty was broken, and if they showed more of them falling in love and such, I would have totally cried my eyes out at the end.

I have read Basilisk last year and I immediately ate it up. What's with me being a sucker for ninjas, special abilities, cool weapons, deception and fights.
Plus, there's a cute romance thing going on.

I recommend this to all action/martial arts enthusiasts. :)


On the other hand......
