This anime was truly amazing. It had some of the best fighting sequences I have seen in a while. Along with that it had a deep rich story that made me jump constantly. It had so many twists and turns I almost got dizzy. I've been wanting an anime with deep multiple layer characters for sometime. This one definitely delivered. For all but two characters you could never see where their true loyalties lied. I give this a 10.

Review:

I have to say its one of the greats and I can't believe it took me so long to get to watching it. I loved the theme and the fight sequences. However, the main ninja Jubei is kinda one sided on relying on a single technique. so because he wasn't versatile I'll have to dock him some points. The story line was great, the characters where phenomenal. They even did a good job of throwing some twists and making it hard to believe everything a character has to say. therefore I give them a 9.5. I don't usually give half points but Jubei relayed on one technique and i could only satisfy myself by docking half a point.

Review:

Quite a nice series based on the mutsu enmei ryo style of combat. It basically tells the story of three generations of mutsu. The only thing I really didn't like is that you didn't get back story on each generation because the it was a one season series. I'd have like it if they did a series on one mutsu and include the training and not just a year or so of their life where they fight japans greatest swordsman. Overall I give it a 7 out 10 do to not developing a good back story and it lost 1 point because they jipped the animation in places.

Review:

Well i just finished seirei no moribito. It was phenominal. From the descriptions I read I expected alot more martial arts action, however there was only a few martial arts scenes. These scenes were masterfully done. What it lacked in martial arts scenes it made up for in story and character depth. I give it a 9.
