Manual of Ninja Martial Arts
Ninja Bugei-chou
Nagisa Oshima's only animated film—also called Manual of Ninja Martial Arts—is exactly as provocative as you'd hope from a director of his caliber. It adapts Sanpei Shirato's manga, following a young man in the Muromachi period whose father, a feudal lord, was assassinated. Driven by revenge, he crosses paths with Kagemaru, a ninja who's broken ranks to help peasants and farmers fight back against Oda Nobunaga's rule.
