This series has a different director, but with all the elements of the original story, surely there is no way he could screw this up, right? Unfortunately it turns he can and he did. Now, 10 years later, along comes a 13-episode TV series of the same name which features the same characters (Jubei and his monk pal Dakuan), more creative demons with unique powers, and even better animation. It had superb action scenes, an interesting plot, and great characters. The original 1993 film was a huge success, and for very good reasons.

It's hard to believe a sequel to one of the most famous anime movies of all time could be this bad.
