Synopsis
Ancient book foretells Samurai Troopers' future; Suzunagi tempts them with desires, questioning their free will.
A 300-year-old book is discovered which chronicles the adventures of the legendary Samurai Troopers… centuries before they happen! But what does this mean? Are the Troopers merely puppets in some cosmic play, acting out parts? Who is this mysterious Suzunagi, a mysterious girl who entices each of the warriors with their hearts’ desire - salvation, new armors, freedom from a life of fighting. Why is she so interested in the troopers and their armors? (Source: AniDB)

- 3 “my first time giving such a low rating on anything I watched and its for a good reason. I'm a big fan of samurai troopers and this being the final ova of the entire franchise was a huge let down....”
- 2 “Being the final entry in the Ronin Warriors series, you'd think this five-episode OAV would be filled with great action and a wonderful end. It's not. There is no action whatsoever in any of these...”
