Seeing as how there are 20 ninjas who pretty much have to kill each other off in the span of 24 episodes, the pace of the series is done very well. Now, with the battle beginning again, the two lovers are pitted against each other and are forced to kill off each other’s friends as well as themselves in order to bring honor to their clans.Īs you may be able to tell from the description, this story is packed full of action. Out of the 20 ninjas, there is Gennosuke, the assumed leader of the Kouga after his grandfather’s death and Oboro, the leader of the Iga after her grandmother’s death, who fall in love with each other and were soon to be married before the treaty was annulled. It centers on two ninja clans, the Kouga and the Iga, who, after several years of peace, reenter a deadly battle where 10 of the most skilled fighters from each side must kill one another until one clan rises victorious. After finishing the series in about two days, I’m so glad that I did.īasilisk, also known as the Kouga Ninja Scrolls, started as a manga in 2003 and became a 24 episode anime series in 2005. Cut to the present where I’m much older and am looking online for anime to watch, I saw it listed on Hulu and decided to give it a chance. I actually heard of the series a long time ago when I was like 14 or 15, but I wasn’t interested in it at the time. Many weeks ago while I was procrastinating my school work, I came across a lovely but violent anime called Basilisk. Anime Wednesdays: Romeo and Juliet with Ninjas? My Thoughts on Basilisk
