The year is 1545, when Japan was still in the midst of the bloody, chaotic Sengoku Jidai (Warring States Period). The Kageichi clan of ninja, once renowned for its matchless martial arts skills and its fantastically strong weapons made of unearthly steel, has fallen on hard times, with only one master ninja (Naoto Takenaka) and three young disciples remaining: the naive but pure-hearted Akakage (Masanobu Ando), the brave but slow-witted Aokage (Jun Murakami) and the beautiful but dangerous Asuka (Kumiko Aso).
This trio still performs dangerous missions for their master, the cynical, scheming Lord Togo (Masahiko Tsugawa), but are starting to wonder what fending off the occasional threat to Togo's borders has to do with the clan motto: "Working in the shadows for the light of world peace." (Hey, it's a ninja movie for kids.) |
