Our take
Batman Ninja vs. Yakuza League is a PG-13 animated DC film with sci-fi battles against evil Justice League doubles. Punches, energy blasts, and occasional blood spurts stay stylized. Mild language includes hell, damn, and crap
Uplifting themes
Teamwork and courage against corruption Batman and allies protect Gotham from a twisted league

Story (may spoil tone)
The Batman family has returned to the present to discover that Japan has disappeared, and a giant island - Hinomoto - is now in the sky over Gotham City. At the top sit the Yakuza, a group of superpowered individuals who reign without honor or humanity and look suspiciously like the Justice League. Now, it’s up to Batman and his allies to save Gotham!

Talk after watching
- What makes a hero in an alternate universe still feel like Batman?
- Anime-style action is fast and flashy. How is it different from live-action superhero violence?
- Japan disappears from the map in the plot. How do heroes respond to huge stakes?
