Scooby-Doo! and the Samurai Sword

Scooby-Doo! and the Samurai Sword (2009) is a Warner Bros. animated feature you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Christopher Berkeley. The Mystery Inc. crew trades haunted mansions for a full-on Japan adventure centred on the legendary Sword of Fate.

Shaggy and Scooby end up training with a sword master while the rest of the gang races across Asia trying to stay ahead of the Black Samurai and his army of ninja robots. The voice cast includes Casey Kasem, Frank Welker, Brian Cox, George Takei, and Gedde Watanabe — which gives the film a bit more weight than a typical direct-to-video entry in the franchise.

Of all the Scooby-Doo movies in the catalogue, this one leans hardest into action: the chases run longer, the fight choreography is busier, and Samurai-era Japan gives the animators a lot to work with. Stream Scooby-Doo! and the Samurai Sword online on iFILM.
