Comment: The reason why I'm attracted to watch this anime because Raimei caught my attention. When I watch the first episode of this anime, somehow I become confused a bit because the characters aren't introduced properly. Not just that, each of the characters' motives and past histories are just way too soon to be included in the first few episodes making you feel like you need to know everything in a short period. This anime has a very nice storyline however, with every scenes happen so suddenly making the anime lost its interest. Regardless of the bad things I've highlighted here, this anime is still worth watching it because the voice acting is good. Watch this anime if you really like ninja-theme anime.
