"Jubei's Ninja Chronicles") is a 1993 Japanese animated jidaigeki-chanbara film written and directed by Yoshiaki Kawajiri, starring the voices of Kōichi Yamadera, Emi Shinohara, Takeshi Aono, Daisuke Gōri, Toshihiko Seki and Shūichirō Moriyama. The film was a co-production between JVC, Toho and Movic, with Madhouse serving as the animation studio. Ninja Scroll was theatrically released in Japan on June 5, 1993, and received an English-dubbed release through Manga Entertainment in 1995.[1] The film takes place in feudal Japan and follows Kibagami Jubei, a mercenary swordsman who battles the Eight Devils of Kimon, a team of ninjas with supernatural powers who are intent on overthrowing the Tokugawa shogunate. During his quest, he is aided by Dakuan, an elderly but crafty government spy, and Kagero, a Kōga kunoichi whose body is infused with poisonous toxins. Praised for its animation and action scenes, Ninja Scroll is regarded by many as one of the most influential anime films ever made. Alongside Akira and Ghost in the Shell, it was responsible for increasing the popularity of adult-oriented anime outside of Japan. The film has been cited by The Wachowskis as an influence on the Matrix franchise, and resulted in Kawajiri later contributing to two segments of the anthology film The Animatrix.[2] A televised stand-alone sequel, Ninja Scroll: The Series, was aired in Japan in 2003. In Edo period-Japan, the Yamashiro clan (山城藩, Yamashiro-han) mines gold in secret, and sends a shipment to the Toyotomi Shogun of the Dark (闇公方, Yami Kubō) as payment for his protection. The Shogun of the Dark intends to use the gold to buy advanced Spanish weaponry and overthrow the current government, the Tokugawa Shogunate. The ship runs aground onto Mochizuki territory (望月藩, Mochizuki-han) in a storm, and the Eight Devils of Kimon (鬼門八人衆, Kimon Hachininshū), a ninja team with supernatural powers in the employ of the Yamashiro, kill the people of the nearby Shimoda Village (下田村, Shimoda-mura) to keep the gold shipment a secret.
In our family-friendly, post-Pixar world, it's easy to forget kids of the '90s enjoyed some adult animation—some VERY adult animation. If you're into ultraviolence, overcomplicated plots, fingerbanging, poison kisses and superb boobs, "Ninja Scroll" is the movie for you. Listener Eric C. encouraged "Shat The Movies" to embrace all those things in the Crew's first viewing of this 1993 Japanese animation classic. And boy did we! Along the way, Ash noted the film's influence on "The Matrix," Dick Ebert felt the comic book nostalgia of his youth, and Gene Lyons asked, "Are the Japanese OK?" Other topics on this episode include: Are anime characters Asian? Are some superpowers just too much? Do women anime fans exist? And how should you let down a ninja who offers to save your life with sex?

Premium Collections continue to trickle in to a very mixed reception from the Sackboys but we can at least enjoy the fact that a long standing meme with Narukami has been put to rest. Later we venture back into Kagero with a brand new Blademaster which has Andrew over the moon and Conor isn't far behind. Peter then wraps us up with a discussion on his thoughts on Bushiroad's design philosophy, and how much things have really changed with our beloved card game.
Yes? WHAT COST?! We'll tell you what cost. Card costs are literally the first thing you see at the start of any effect in this game, they've developed along with power creep throughout Vanguard's history, and yet no one talks about it. So we're here to do that! Join the in-debt triumvirate as we talk about the history of effect costs in Vanguard, and what we think it means with the new card orders.Follow us on Twitter or Instagram @NexusatNight, or support us on Patreon! patreon.com/nexuscorpsFollow Atlas on Twitter or Instagram @atlasnovack, Matt on Twitter @wiggumzz, or Alvin/Root Beer on Twitter @plasmaeclipse.

Less nova, more grappler. Less deleting, more locking. Less Kagero, no wait, it's the same amount of Kagero. Welcome to V Extra Booster 7! With support for Kagero, Link Joker, and Nova Grappler, this new set also brings the official release of Gift II's (which we covered in a previous episode.) The guys take a look at what this could mean for the metagame, and whether Link Joker's return of locking is going to be worth it now that it doesn't lock the opponent's stuff.Follow us on Twitter or Instagram @NexusatNight, or support us on Patreon! patreon.com/nexuscorpsFollow Atlas @atlasnovack, Matt @wiggumzz, or Alvin/Root Beer @plasmaeclipse.

It's set review time once again! And this time, we have the dumbest name for a set we've ever seen: Light of Salvation, Logic of Destruction. Pick one, Bushiroad, jeez!

The fillers have begun! And there is a lot to get through in these episodes, as Team Jiraiya (Naruto, Sakura, and Jiraiya) go on the hunt for Sasuke in the Land of Rice Patties and run into a squad of jobber shinobi from the Fuma clan! We investigate Sakura's tender moment with Sasame and discuss the incredibly bitter-sweet story of Kagero, the beautiful transwoman who was a butterfly. All this and more on Talking Naruto!
Back in the studio after a few weeks of home recording, Conor and Andrew cover cards for various clans as the extra boosters begin to trickle in. Actually finding something interested in Kagero, as well as a hint of whats to come for Link Joker and it's no bueno.
Grade 4s are BACK! But they're not strides. They're in the deck. With the other cards. This is a thing. And it's kind of a letdown. The guys take a look at Exculpate the Blaster and Dragonic something something Nouvelle, and what this could mean for future support in standard (like Gear Chronicle, for example.)

Restanders- Vanguards that can attack twice in the same battle phase- are surprisingly scarce in standard format despite being everywhere in G format. So what gives? The guys unpack why that might be while also giving Matt a soapbox to yell about how awesome Dimension Police is.

Filmspezial 85 Zwei filmische Meisterwerke, die ihren Teil dazu beitrugen, ihren Regisseur zeitweise arbeitslos zu machen: Seijun Suzukis "Tokyo Drifter" (東京流れ者) und "Branded to kill" (殺しの烙印)! Und mit diesen Filmen liefern wir quasi das Prequel zu einer unserer #Japanuary-Folgen (damals besprachen wir "Zigeunerweisen" (ツィゴイネルワイゼン) und "Kagero-za" (陽炎座)). Im Gegensatz zu den anderen beiden Filmen geht es hier in zwielichtige Gefilde: Während Tetsuya Watari voller Anstand und Moral für das Gute kämpft, versucht Joe Shishido (der Mann mit den Backen) den Meisterschaftsgürtel im Totschießen zu gewissen, währen Jan Lukas die Handlung ignoriert. Funktioniert. Seid also bereit für poppig bunte Anzüge, singende Yakuza, aus der Hose tropfenden Whisky, Insektenbrei, transparente Böden, Sex auf Treppen, schwertschingende Menschenmassen, eine Saloonschlägerei, generelle Grenzenlosigkeit, dicke Backen, eine Dusche im Wohnzimmer, dänische (oder französische?) Bunker, brennende Menschen, offene Cabrios bei Unwetter, kuriose Schnitte, Geilheit durch kochenden Reis, die lachende Frau, blinde Zuschauer, keine grünen Monde, Diamond Guys, Enka und generell viel geilen Scheiß. Nun kommt es nur drauf an, dass diese Folge nicht zu verwirrend wird. Sonst wird uns von Nikkatsu noch ein Aufführungsverbot auferlegt, weshalb wir uns dann auf die schwarze Liste klagen müssten. Das kann niemand wollen. 00:00:00 Intro/Begrüßung 00:01:19 Der Vorlauf 00:16:15 Die Loyalität des blauen Anzugs 01:18:08 Die Dusche im Wohnzimmer 02:19:28 Kram/Abschied/Outro/Berserk
In an episode whose title that totally didn't happen because Atlas lost a bet, the boys take a look at control decks- decks that prevent the opponent from doing what they want. Vanguard and its relationship to control decks is much different than in other games like Magic or Yu-Gi-Oh. But how much?

Japanuaryspezial 04 Seijun Suzuki dachte sich, nach etlichen Actionfilmen und zehn Jahren auf der schwarzen Liste, mal etwas neues probieren zu wollen. Er drehte seine Taisho-Trilogie, deren ersten beiden Filme ("Zigeunerweisen" und"Kagero-za") hier heute besprochen werden. Und so stürzen sich Jan Lukas Daniel und Michael in die verworrenen Untiefen dieser wundersamen Werke voller erotisch groteskem Unsinn, Doppelselbstmorden aus Liebe (mit Zuschauer), Dreiecksverhältnissen, Doppelgängerinnen, Vaginakrebsen, Penispilzen, verschenkten Seelen, kuriosem Theater, Physalis, Ähnlichkeiten zu Fish Story, Liebe und Leid. Erwartet also viel Planlosigkeit, Verwirrung, Spaß und noch mehr wunderbare Taisho-Ästhetik (was das ist, erfahrt ihn in der Folge).

Hi Listeners! For Episode 42 of the Warships Podcast we have NoZoup returning for his 3rd stint on the show to talk about the many new surprises that has recently hit the World of Warships. Kelorn checks up on fellow Community Contributor Zoup and how he has been doing recently with his YouTube channel. Congratulations on 10k subscriptions Zoup, as that is an incredible milestone! The cast discusses one of his recent videos, a satire on the destroyer class in the game. Which is brilliant, well done, and put together. Kelorn also takes a moment to make a quick comment about the show host's formation of a new Clan/Fleet, (-I-) Impact. Headed up by KamiSamurai himself. We chose to leave OPG (OverPowereredGaming) on amicable terms, to set out on a new course for ourselves and our fleet. We get into the main body of show topics with the news and testing of several new ship. As of the day of this shows recording. All four of the show's members and guest, as well as other NA Community Contributors, have the opportunity to now test USS Enterprise, HMS Gallant, HSF Graf Spee, and HSF Harekaze. We talk about each of these ships going over what our initial impressions are for the new ships. Please keep in mind that any stats, abilities, and issues with these ships are subject to change as they are in testing and are considered a work in progress. We start with the Enterprise and break down the play style and our thoughts on the strengths and weaknesses so far. Discussing potential for Ranked and Competitive play and overall viability that this ship brings. We do the same for Gallant focusing on what the ships play style is and how it is possibly a meta changer. The implications for Ranked play could be massive and is this possibly a sign of things to come with the future Royal Navy Destroyer line??? Along the lines of destroyers we talk about the introduction of two new ships coming to the game. The collaboration with the High School Fleet anime show has brought about two of the shows star ships. HSF Harekaze and HSF Graf Spee. The Graf Spee is mostly a mirror of the existing in game counterpart however Harekaze is unique Tier 8 fictional Kagero class, in that she has the ability to upgrade her hull and guns in game similarly as to how she did in several episode of the anime show. This gives players many options and the cast discusses this fun ship and how great of a hybrid ship she can be. Kelorn, Kami, and Zoup speculate on how these ships might be obtained and a very interesting idea is brought up on how they could be obtained that we really hope Wargaming is working on and/or considering close as these are fantastic ideas. We close out the podcast with a discussion on the newly release/revealed images and line up of Royal Navy Battleships. The cast talks about the ships seen so far. HMS Conqueror the Tier 10, HMS Lion Tier 9, HMS King George the 5th and HMS Nelson which tiers are still ambiguous at the moment of this podcast. Going over some of the information known to us we talk about gun battery potential, speed, armor, and other points of interest to these ships, and how they might fare to their contemporaries. Thank you all for listening and supporting us! See you next cast!!!

This week's episode has Atlas talking to Héléne Bourrée, a Kagero juggernaut of the European Vanguard circuit, about the flames of the apocalypse. Atlas has his work cut out for him when she quickly realizes he doesn't know what he's talking about.
