Ninja Scroll (1993) - full transcript
A Journeyman ninja by name of Jubei stumbles upon a plague, an evil clan of demons, a national crisis, and a beautiful ninja girl.
Roga, return the
Sacred Dragon Stone!
It looks like
it's going to be noisy.
Where are you going, Roga?
It is the fate
of the Hiruko...
to live and die
in the shadows.
It's not too late yet.
You won't be punished...
if you return
the Sacred Dragon Stone.
We shall have
that Dragon Stone!
Who are you?
This is getting to be
a nuisance.
Can't take this anymore.
What a noise!
Here!
Don't waste your energy.
You can't get away.
III ask one more time.
Who are you?
I don't know.
I see.
Then die!
How does he taste,
my kids?
Don't waste a piece.
Eat it all.
Mozuku...
No time to worry
about others.
I want you to be
our meal.
What?
How wonderful, wonderful!
I am delighted your fight
seems to be over so quickly.
Once you are done,
get lost, please!
I am sleepy.
I was having a nice dream.
Then this clink, clink,
clang, clang woke me up.
First, you!
What's the matter?
You can't get me unless
I'm in the range of your sword!
With my sword,
that's not necessary!
Magai?
Heard about you.
With a gust of energy
through his sword...
who defeats his opponent,
a mercenary ninja.
I believe your name
is Jubei Kibagami.
It must be a strange fate
to have met you here.
Would you be willing
to work for me?
Of course, I will pay.
- I decline.
- Why?
You are, after all,
a mercenary ninja.
Don't you work for money?
Yeah, that's right.
But I don't trust a guy
who doesn't show his face.
Where are you going, Jubei?
Nowhere.
I just want to see
the rest of my dream.
Mozuku was defeated.
Who killed Mozuku?
Not Roga?
I see.
Kimon clan.
Kimon ninjas
working for Yamikubo.
The Light Maiden
is in danger!
She's in danger!
Magai was killed.
Let's go, Doten.
The Light Maiden
is in danger.
Yesterday and again,
today...
I haven't had much luck.
Miss Shigure, we are ready
for a practice session.
Yes.
- You know, Genza...
- Yes?
I have never been
out of this village...
not since I was born.
I wonder
what's out there!
Well, I don t
really know myself.
I see.
Come on! Fight!
Ready!
Ouch!
How many times do
I have to tell you?!
Don't close your eyes!
Y... yes!
I don't care who...
someone defeat me!
We are in no state
of fighting back.
We can't protect our village
in case of any attack.
You are right.
Genza always treats me
like a child.
But I'm...
Trespasser!
Miss Shigure?
Who are you?
What's the matter?
What a dangerous place.
Look what you
He got in the middle of this.
Did it hit him?
I don't know.
Just got a little lost.
I'd appreciate it if
I can get a drink of water.
All right.
Come with me.
Don't worry.
After I get some rest,
I'm out of here.
Tell me something.
What is it?
I know nothing
but this village.
I want you to tell me,
traveler...
what is out there
in the world?
What is different
from here?
Not much.
Anywhere you go,
people are people...
the sky is the sky.
Nothing's different.
I m...
What's that?
Maybe it was someone trying to
catch a baboon with a cannon.
Be serious!
I am getting tired
of this.
I guess someone
doesn't want me to sleep.
Mr. Genza!
I'm afraid
this is our fate.
The Light Maiden!
The Light Maiden!
Miss Shigure,
please run away! Quick!
Go! Go!
You guys, keep eating,
eat them all!
Hey, you better
get out of here.
Don't insult me!
I... I will...
I can...
You guys!
Please, Miss Shigure,
please run away.
We will take care here.
Quick!
Are you a village guard man?
I have nothing to do
with this village.
I am just passing by.
That's fine.
This is some kind of fate.
I hate this fate.
Genza? Genza?
Where shall I run to?
What shall I do, Genza?
Go to the outside world
which you wish to see.
I will take you.
No!
Run, quick!
Go, quick!
Run away! Quick!
Miss Shi... gu... re!
What's your name?
Jubei Kibagami.
Mother! Don't die!
What'll happen to us
if you die!
Jubei... Kibagami.
You said you wouldn't
trust someone...
- who hides his face...
- Yeah.
This is my face.
I beg you.
I want you to give this
to that girl.
Are you sure you want
to trust me with this?
I am a mercenary ninja
who works for money.
Yes, I trust you.
If not, I will haunt you.
The... Light... Maiden.
Sacred Dragon Stone!
