Ninja Scroll: The Series is the soundtrack to a 13-episode TV series that made its debut in Japan. It is an extension to the wildly popular and award-winning anime feature film (of the same name), written and directed by Yoshiaki Kawajiri. It chronicles the life of Jubei Kibagami as he wanders the countryside as a ninja for hire.

The story takes place in feudal Japan during the Edo period, a time of delicate peace bought with blood and ninja clans are everywhere. One clan, known as the Hiruko Clan, doomed to live and die in darkness, protects a sacred Dragon Stone from the Kimon Clan, who are bent on reviving the power of the Toyotomi. Jubei’s mission is to protect both the Dragon Stone and the only one that can use it - The Priestess of Light.

The soundtrack has been co-scored by Golden Globe & Grammy Award winning artist Kitaro and multi-instrumentalist and composer, Peter ‘Peas’ McEvilley. The music is an eclectic mix of new age, traditional Japanese folk music, jazz, rock and electronica.
