My vote for inside art. Any thoughts?

Out of the three, I would go with #2 since it's of the main character. But it in itself is nothing special imo.

What disappointed me with the Terminator interior images was that none of them were really great. They were just cliche'd images of Ahnuld with a gun, or the two heroes with odd looks on their faces. Your choices kinda follow the same idea; showing a gruesome scene with a lesser character, and spoiling a cool fight scene with the other.

If I were to choose interiors for the Ninja Scroll steel, I'd go with something mysterious, that doesn't spoil anything in the anime, and and just shows the main character(s):

(Got these off of screen captures from my old Manga Video dvd, so they're crap quality)

Seven Devils of Kimon

Jubei (image flipped so disc doesn't cover the character)

Jubei and Kagero

This scene needs to be the inside art! except i'd offset the centre so that the fight is on the left hand side of steelbook.

Pretty good image, but it looks fanmade. I wonder if they have to use a screenshot or can make something like this on their own??

Here's what it would look like off-centered:

hey i was just looking at the Ninja Scroll wiki page and saw that it was censored when it came out originally (along with several other Manga releases).

I assume we get the full uncut version for this anniversary edition right?

Did u guys know the Ninja Scroll Director also directed 2 of the animated short films in "The Animatrix"?

I found out the other weekend when i was watching the Animatrix for the 1st time as part of it's special featurettes. Yoshiaki Kawajiri also directed "Lensman", "Wicked City" and "Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust"

^^^ Wicked City was ........Wicked

lol im embarrassed to say that i have not seen Wicked City Though if Manga announce a new Steel for it, i'll be there day 1

I do own Vampire Hunter Bloodlust on DVD, though, and its one of my favorite lesser-known anime movies of recent years. It's also unusual in that the voice work was actually done in English rather than Japanese :movie:
