I never knew about the history of the Ainu people until recently amd I first saw this movie over 30 years ago. Definitely makes the story even more interesting.

That intro theme song is a fricken jam. Such an underrated anime film for so many reasons.

When something can stay in your mind for 25 plus years you know it is phenomenal.

This was my first real introduction to Japanese anime and as a kid it made a lasting impression on me. I remember having an English dubbed version that I had recorded off of TV, it was titled "Revenge of the Ninja Warrior" which is what I had known it by for literally decades until I found out the original title was Dagger of Kamui. HIGHLY underrated anime that should be ranked up there with the best. Would love to see this get a HD blu ray treatment

So sad he killed his own dad. I remember this as a kid back in the 80s. I'm 41 now. So many beautiful memories

[ShinobiWan]

I got a new VCR recently, and have this playing in the background while I work. So many memories. "Rhythmless!"

[TanukiDigital]

I never saw this entire movie, but I remember seeing this trailer over 30 years ago and I never forgot it.

[simpalgaming]

This was one of my earliest starts to anime, there were a few others such as ; the animated hobbit, the two two towers, the return of the king, and there is another, but I can't think of the name. Also the last unicorn, and the flight of dragons. Such amazing memories and such amazing anime.
