  • Samurai Shodown: The Motion Picture
rdfs:comment
  • Samurai Shodown: The Motion Picture is an 1994 anime based upon the 1993 SNK video game Samurai Shodown. It was released by SNK in association with Fuji TV and NAS.
  • The film has an infamous reputation of taking liberties with the game's original concept; this is because SNK's marketers allowed the studios involved to change whatever they deemed necessary to "appeal to a larger audience". The original game developers, however, had little creative control over the anime's development and were somewhat displeased by the results. Since then, SNK has kept a more wary eye on their artistic licenses, taking time to hire talented fans of their games for designs as well as selecting limited and faithful sponsors.

Despite being poorly received by critics for both storytelling and animation quality, it is still sought after by fans as a collector's item. __TOC__
