Basilisk

Basilisk is a ninja action anime. While not perfectly fitting into shounen style anime, it definitely has a very similar feel, in some parts, to Naruto and the likes. This is primarily due to the ninja's and their individual ninjitsu's.

The story line is engaging from the start, but at times stagnates. The story is very romeo and juliet esqu, the son and daughter of two separate major clans are engaged and fall in love but then the clans, who have a history of bad blood, feud again, and so all hell breaks loose.

This anime is worth a watch, the characters are well developed and the story is very thought out if not original. It is not as light hearted as Naruto or Ninja scrolls but i will liken the action to these animes, the dialogue being something more along the lines of Devil May Cry or even Samurai Gun.
