Usagi Yojimbo DojoBoard

I have recently picked up some older magazines containing articles about various aspects of the samurai film genre. Since I did not grow up watching them, the samurai and jidaigeki film genre have been a relatively recently discovery for me.

I have decided to start an archive of scans of these articles over at the Ninja Dojo Forums (the place to visit for samurai film fans!) in order to share with others whom might be interested.
