Shinobi no Ie: House of Ninjas (2024)
A questioning of the moral dillema related to killing and family grief management
17 February 2024 - 13 out of 20 users found this review helpful.
Family grief is posistioned as 1 of 2 major themes. Coupled to purpose and sacrifice of freedom towards duty of Shinobi. Much insight is provided into grief ang guilt impacting the family unit. Great use of music, but slow burn till 1/3s in. The secondary theme is glory. Here the opposing Fuma clan and their super natural leader enter. The Fuma fight against the traditional function of the Shinobi, which is military special forces killing machine, embodied by the Hattori family.
Atlast the true purpose of the Fuma clan is revealed after multiple plot twists. Past pacing issues and if you buy into the marriage with the supernatural, nicely done.
