Higan is a Nukenin - a former ninja who escaped his clan and is hiding from his violent past in rural America with his family. One night, he is ambushed by a team of assassins from his former organization who exact a bloody retribution on Joe and his… family for betraying their ancient code. Rising from his seeming “death,” Joe will re-emerge as his former self - Ninja Kamui - to avenge his family and friends. Kamui is a 21st century ninja, a shadowy anachronism who pits his ancient skills against high-tech weaponry with brutal finesse. He must face off against trained assassins, combat cyborgs, and rival ninjas to bring down the very clan that made him.
I'd recommend it for its first fights, its violence and a retired ninja who comes back with everything after his clan touches his family.
It is for adult audiences looking for revenge, modern ninjas and fast action.
What sets it apart from the traditional ninja is the crossover with industrial technology: Higan was hiding in rural America with another face, but his old clan pursues him with advanced armor and weapons.
More anime like Ninja Kamui, selected by genre, theme and viewing style.
