* [[Determinator]]: Aya Ueto did many of her own stunts, during the filming of one fight on the first day she was struck on the forehead with a prop sword. The Director was worried that the injury might cause her to pull out of the production. She returned to the set the very next day ready to continue filming.

* [[Even Evil Has Standards]]: Saru delivers a [[Mercy Kill]] to {{spoiler|Hyuga}} even though Bijomaru deliberately injured him in such a way that his death would be slow and painful.

* [[No Social Skills]]: growing up in isolation (and learning the fine art of bloody murder, lest we forget) deprives all of the ten of these.

* [[Sorting Algorithm of Evil]]: After Azumi and her comrades easily dispose of a bunch of nameless Mooks, the [[Evil Overlord]] decides to set an ambush with his better-trained ninja - who are promptly slaughtered. At this point he enlists a band of bloodthirsty mercenaries. When this still doesn't work, he goes into a prison to release a psychotic mass murderer (who happens to be a master swordsman) and gives him the rest of his troops, plus an ''entire town'' of cutthroats as backup.

* [[The Law of Diminishing Defensive Effort]]: Bijomaru uses a sword with no handguard, to show he's such a skilled fighter that he never needs to parry. Differs from most examples of this trope in that he dodges the attacks instead of just [[No Sell|No Selling]] them.

* [[What Could Possibly Go Wrong?]]: at the end of the first movie, the one remaining warlord is enjoying a leisurely cruise to his next destination, his ship practically in the middle of the ocean as he invites his bodyguard to join him at the ''onsen''. [[Crazy Awesome|Cue Azumi leaping out of the ocean to finish him off.]]
