DVD Review: Hakkenden: Eight Dogs of the East – Season 1

Are Eight Dogs needed to turn the world into something anew? Who knows but we take a look at MVM Entertainment’s upcoming release of Hakkenden: Eight Dogs of the East – Season 1 to see what it has to offer. Spoilers… not a lot so be prepared for reptitive notions and nothing make sense; but at least it will be available on Blu-ray!

Synopsis:

When their village was wiped out five years ago, there were only three young survivors: boys Shino Inuzuka and Sosuke Inukawa and the girl Hamaji. Through a quirk of fate, both boys share the same peony-shaped birthmark. Genpachi Inukai and Kobungo Inuta were raised hundreds of miles away as foster brothers, but they too share the same birthmark.

When they went north as part of the army three years ago, they went to confront demons and came back forever transformed. Now the Imperial Church has come for Shino and Sosuke and they must find eight mystical gems and their owners or face a fate worse than death at the hands of the Church.
