Ninja Resurrection, known in Japan as Makai Tenshō: Jigoku Hen (魔界転生地獄編, trans: Demon Realm Reincarnation: Portrait of Hell) is a two-part original video animation directed by Yasunori Urata.
The OVA series is based on Futaro Yamada's novel Makai Tensho. Although of a similar style, Ninja Resurrection is not a sequel to the anime film Ninja Scroll, despite being marketed as one outside of Japan. It also heavily borrows and adapts scenes and elements from Ken Ishikawa's manga adaptation from 1986 and Shouko Toba's manga adaptation from 1997.
