The year a comet races across the sky, splitting the heavens, from the depths of the Earth the dark god shall arise once again. Then, the dark evil lurking in the shadows shall come out of the depths of Hell and show itself in the present world. The emotions of the blade of the wind shall collect at the source of the blue light. And the three blades shall become one, vanquishing evil.
The year is 1580, and the unholy armies of Lord Nobunaga Oda steadily spread across Japan. Narrowly escaping the slaughter of her clan, a young ninja steals into the shadows. She is Ayame, the last of the Kasumi clan, and the dagger she wields is one of three, mystical blades. She is joined by Sakon and Ryoma, renegade ninja and the possessors of the sacred sword and spear. Now, these shadow warriors must unite their weapons and skills to fulfill `The Prophesy of the Enchanted Swords` or die trying...
This is a cut version of the earlier OVA.

Where it came from
Wrath of the Ninja, originally titled Sengoku Kunoichi-den, was produced by J.C.Staff in 1989 during a period when the studio was establishing its reputation in the original video animation market. The film emerged as part of the broader 1980s trend of gritty, stylized historical fantasy that utilized the freedom of the direct-to-video format to explore darker, more action-oriented narratives than were typically available on television at the time.
The animation was characterized by the high-contrast aesthetic favored by late-eighties production houses, focusing on fluid combat choreography and traditional period-piece tropes. While the film was produced as a relatively standalone piece of genre entertainment, it is often studied today as a representative artifact of the late Showa-era transition toward more mature, blood-letting storytelling in the independent anime industry.
