This is a poor movie for those of us who aren't already fans. I doubt that even the fans like it much. The protaganist Yuki discovers that the her mother was killed by the leader of the Takemikazuchi ninja clan to which she belongs. She tries to cut loose, find true love, and live happily ever after. They don't accept the resignation. This all takes place in some kind of modern (post-apocalyptic?) setting.
There are a couple of fight scenes that are fun to watch. The opening fight reminds me of Six String Samurai, a movie which I actually enjoy watching. But they do not come close to making up for the endless grind as Yuki "finds" herself.
