In a free society the right to critique art is essential and protected speech. These reviews reflect personal opinions and not statements of fact.

What We Think

Ninja Scroll: The Series is about as non-woke as they come, a gritty, classic anime experience where swords, sorcery, and storytelling reign supreme, not identity checkboxes. Refreshingly immune to modern Hollywood trends.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Ninja Scroll: The Series largely prioritizes storytelling, action, and atmosphere over identity politics. Characters are complex and defined by their roles, skills, and personalities rather than identity characteristics. Representation is natural to the period and genre.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional themes like honor, duty, and martial prowess prevail. Masculinity, family bonds, and elements of myth and folklore are treated with respect, never mocked or undermined to serve modern ideological narratives.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The show does not push a modern moral worldview or stigmatize alternative viewpoints. Characters embody a range of motivations and ethics typical for the genre and historical setting. No ideology dominates the narrative.
