Based on manga comics "Kagemaru," a very popular ninja figure among children. Hiroki Matsukata, who sadly passed away early this year made this movie specifically for the kids!
Synopsis: In 1582, there has been a revolt in the Honno Temple and an assassination takes place. Lord Oda Nabunaga had been killed by Akechi Mitsuhide, who in turn occupies and takes over Kyoto. To accomplish this he still needs to defeat two other leaders, Hashiba Hideyoshi and Tokugawa Ieyasu. Hideyoshi was in Chugoku attacking Tamamatsu Castle with his army, but Ieyasu was vacationing in Sakai. Ieyasu wants to return to his city Hamamatsu to escape danger, but Mitsuhide has his men stationed on all major roads. The only way out is to head north then cross the southern part of Kyoto to the land of Iga. Ieyasu hopes to get aid from an old ninja wise man, Momochi Sandayu of Iga. Unfortunately, Mitsuhide sends hired hands, the "Koga Seven" led by Amano Jaki, to arrive in Iga first to finish off it’s people, before they can give any aid to Ieyasu. A young girl Ukyo helps Sandayu escape out of the village and into the woods. Sandayu’s son Kagemaru returns from a getaway in Kyoto, already knowing trouble is stirring. Having been beaten down, Sandayu asks Kagemaru to defeat the seven Koga Ninja for him in order to aid Ieyasu and his journey through Iga onto Hamamatsu. Kagemaru must battle each Koga member with a different ability with his Iga skills!
