Batman Ninja is pure genius.I saw figures of The Joker and his foot soldiers as well as the title character at Ozcomicon, so I hope the transforming castles are made into toys and from there we can have the combiner. If you haven't seen this movie yet, I highly recommend it because I don't know of any animated Batman movie that could equal this.
And the DVD does have a Japanese audio track (with English subtitle option) despite the case jacket not advertising it (not sure why they wouldn't display these options). There are two sets of subtitles - one for the original Japanese dialogue and the other for the English dub (dubtitles). Need a lot of suspending disbelief though as the premise of this story and many things throughout it is pretty ridiculous, but if you can accept it then it's a fun fantasy action story.One interesting thing was how Batman's grappling claw became useless in feudal Japan since there weren't any tall buildings for him to grapple onto. The movie doesn't explain the absence of any language barrier. I guess the characters must all be carrying Bat-Universal-Translators.
