While the story is pretty typical of its samurai genre, with warlords and religion playing its role in sending a mysterious warrior back into his fighting mode, the animation is definitely on point and undoubtedly contains one of the very best drawn action sequences to date of any animated movie. Fans of the Claymore and Beserk series will surely find the no holds barred violence a refresher, but just as long as you don't expect too much character development, you'll find it to be a sweet samurai flick that doesn't disappoint. 7.9/10.
