Review of Kai Doh Maru (2001) by Zachary R — 05 Sep 2012

This movie I will say is good but very confusing. It starts off with a princess named Toki has had her father killed and one of her friends is killed as well while protecting her. Before she dies a warrior comes out of nowhere and saves her.

He then thus raises her to be a part of his Samurai group that fights for peace and protects the land. Something though in the land is a foot and evil is working with the feudal lords to seize power and take over.

The one really bad thing with it all is that Toki is at the front of this Grandmaster's plan. Like I said at the top, the story can be good, but confusing because it ties into Toki's past very oddly without explanation.

To be fair I've only watched this one and there could be something that I missed. Other than that the action and the animation style were good and impressive. So, on that basis alone with is worth seeing.

7 out of 10.
