The footage was all filmed in the early 1990's
in Japan. Some of this footage has possibly not been released
openly before.
The DVD features the following four films.
1. This is a Daikomyo Sai Enbu, year unknown. The shihan
put on an acted display of Bujinkan Taijutsu and Kobujutsu.
One group are Ninja and the others Samurai. The scene is
set where Ninja attack a Daimyo but are beaten by the Samurai
protecting him.
2. See a westerner on Japanese TV in Noda looking for ninja.
He is directed to Hatsumi sensei (at the Someya Dojo) Their
is a fine display of Taijutsu (lots of flipping out of throws).
Hatsumi Soke tests the gaijin for godan and he fails (terribly),
Soke then shows how its done with Yoshida san.
3. A game show has its contestants become Ninja. Togakure
Ryu Ninja (Nagase Shihan and some of his students) join
them at a temple compound for the games. Yoko Aruki tests
and shuriken throwing as well as hiding are all tested.
Very funny.
