New Shadow Warriors Collection

A collection of six films that were a direct-to-video release between 2003 and 2005, as a continuation of the famous TV series from the '80s. This time Sonny Chiba praises his role as the great Hattori Hanzō I, and his struggle to gather the Iga Shadow Warriors against Koga & Fuma ninjas and the political conspiracies. It is worth noticing that Hiroki Matsukata takes the other leading role in his unique personification of Sarutobi Sasuke. The first 5 films are a unity in terms of the story, however, the last film has become an independent story about who sides with the enemy Zensaku.
