Ninja Kamui

The anime is very promising and it's interesting that HBO is producing it but the story falls very flat and the plot is nothing new: vengeance and lots of action. Basically a John Wick anime ripoff. This is not entirely a bad thing if well executed but so far it does not impress: the animation is top notch but the voice acting is ATROCIOUS. It definitely breaks the immersion. Also, the characters are kinda flat, we are 5-6 episodes in and I simply do not care for any of them, the vendetta motive of the main character is just not enough to make me excited. Hopefully this series will improve with the next episodes.

When this show first aired, it was really damn good. Top tier animation, not corners cut, an interesting story. As it has progressed, however, it's now CGI-ridden trash. Without spoiling, the combat went from beautiful animated ninja fighting to something that is not at all to the same quality that the show started with and now relies almost entirely on CGI to function. That CGI is noticeable and bad.

The story is interesting and compelling, although possibly a bit generic and predictable. But with the current level of animation, I'm no longer interested in watching. At episode 8, I just skimmed and decided I was no longer interested. It's truly a shame considering how good the first few episodes are, but the quality has plummeted, and the show is now just kind of bad. Not worth watching.

This ninja anime is ideal for fans of action and fights, but if you're looking for anything else... you won't find it here.

Simple, classic, and predictable story. Well-animated battles, but with a total lack of explanations and arguments about their techniques.

Basically, this anime wants to ignore or simplify any lore to the maximum. It relies entirely on introducing characters you know nothing about, but who have some striking aesthetic feature, so the protagonists can smash them (or not).

Excessively simple and straightforward for my taste, but with decent production and a very clear understanding of its target audience.

Those who like it will think it's amazing, while others might even find it bad. I've decided to stay in the middle; in the end, it entertained me.

Knowing sunghoo Park is directing Ninja Kamui really made our hopes high, but they did nothing to keep the audience invested totally mid after first two episodes.

Just a John wick anime adaptation at best, now the 2nd season is announced hope they did better than that CGI they used.

But Not gonna lie the first two episodes the hand to hand combat the storyboard the production was very good they were really invested the voice acting from The best Kenjiro Tsuda really do catch my Interest But All we can do is hope what's in store for the future for this anime original fingers crossed.

Overall 7/10 show.

This anime series commences with an impressively rapid pace, immediately captivating viewers with its stunningly executed opening sequences. The blend of dynamic action and strategically placed quieter moments skillfully outlines the foundational premise of the story. As someone relatively inexperienced with the anime genre, I found the quality of the animation to be exceptionally high, showcasing the meticulous attention to detail and artistic expertise inherent in this medium.

However, I did observe that the narrative setup seemed somewhat rushed. As a newcomer to anime, I would have preferred a more gradual introduction to the storyline, allowing for a deeper immersion into the world and its characters. Despite this, the swift pacing did not significantly detract from the overall objective and allure of the episode.

Moreover, the power system introduced, while only glimpsed at first glance, appears to hold substantial promise. It suggests a depth and complexity that I anticipate will unfold as the series progresses. This aspect, along with the intriguing narrative and visual excellence, contributed to an overall enjoyable viewing experience. I am eagerly looking forward to exploring the subsequent episode and further understanding this anime's unique universe.
