''Insert details here''.
−
At a Tokyo museum of ancient cultural history, [[Mr. Takagawa]], the pragmatic, no-nonsense curator, and [[Kenji]], an absent-minded janitor, witness the resurrection of the [[Ghost of the Black Samurai]], an ancient Japanese warrior whose armor was to be the newest exhibit at the museum to save it from bankruptcy. The next day, the Mystery Inc. gang arrives at Tokyo, where [[Daphne Blake|Daphne]] is to participate in a martial arts tournament at a prestigious school. The gang meet Daphne’s Japanese girlfriend [[Miyumi]], who explains to them the difficulty of winning the tournament and entering the school as a student. The gang and Miyumi take a fully functioning robotic plane to the school, which is run by [[Miss Mirimoto]]. After Daphne defeats Miss Mirimoto’s bodyguard, [[Sojo]], and narrowly loses to Miyumi, Mirimoto tells her that, despite her defeat and lack of proper training, she still shows promise as a fighter.
  
−  
−
Also at the tournament is Mr. Takagawa, who explains to Mirimoto that the Black Samurai has risen and will be after the Destiny Scroll, which is at the school, though Mirimoto dismisses that story as fanciful entertainment. That night, however, during a banquet, the Black Samurai and his Ninja warriors attack the school and steal the scroll. But Mirimoto explains to the gang that the stolen scroll was only a copy, and shows them the real one. Mr. Takagawa explains to the gang the legend of the Black Samurai: the Black Samurai was originally a ronin who asked the great swordsmith [[Masamune]] to craft a powerful sword. The sword maker agreed, but told the Samurai it would take a year to make.
  
−  
−
Masamune's evil, greedy apprentice [[Muramasa]] offered to make a sword for the Samurai in only half the time, which the Samurai immediately accepted. But when the Samurai took the sword, the evil and greed of Muramasa was transferred to him, and he became the Black Samurai, wielding the [[Sword of Doom]]. When Masamune finished crafting his sword, the [[Sword of Fate]], he presented it to the [[Green Dragon]], who used it to defeat the Black Samurai and imprisoned him in the Sword of Doom. The Dragon then hid the sword, and put its whereabouts in a riddle on the [[Destiny Scroll]].
  
−  
−
[[Velma Dinkley|Velma]] is able to solve the riddle, and Miss Mirimoto instructs the gang, Miyumi, and Mr. Takagawa to find the Sword of Doom before the spirit can. The gang finds the sword in a cave on an island in the South Pacific Ocean, where they are attacked by the local native islanders and the Black Samurai. During the fight, however, the Black Samurai is revealed to be Sojo in disguise. But once the gang brings Sojo back to Tokyo and Miss Mirimoto, she and Miyumi capture them all. Miss Mirimoto explains that she staged the tournament as an excuse to bring the Mystery Inc to Japan so that they would find the Sword of Doom for her. The ninja army is revealed to be robots in which Miss Mirimoto planted the various fighting techniques of her own students. She then locks [[Fred Jones|Fred]], Velma, Daphne, and Mr. Takagawa in the museum. With Sojo's jetpack, [[Scooby-Doo|Scooby]] and [[Shaggy Rogers|Shaggy]] manage to escape Miss Mirimoto while still holding onto the Sword of Doom, but are chased by the ninja robots. They are saved by Sushi chef [[Matsuhiro]]. The ninja robots still manage to steal back the Sword of Doom, but despite this, Matsuhiro reveals to Shaggy and Scooby that he is in fact, a samurai, and begins to train them.
  
−  
−
At Mount Fuji, Matsuhiro instructs Scooby and Shaggy to pass through the gates of earth, air, fire, and water in order to find the Green Dragon and the Sword of Fate. When they do so, the Green Dragon enters with the sword of fate and flies them back to the Tokyo museum to combat the Black Samurai. Kenji frees Fred, Daphne, Velma, and Mr. Takagawa, and they, plus Miyumi, who decides to side with them, attempt to stop Sojo and Miss Mirimoto from resurrecting the Black Samurai, but, despite killing off the rest of the ninja robots (causing a power outage to the rest of the city in the process), they are unsuccessful. After being revived, Miss Mirimoto tries to make the Samurai her servant, but she is quickly entrapped and rendered unconscious by the uninterested warrior. Scooby and Shaggy arrive riding the Green Dragon (who's spirit enters the Sword of Fate) and, along with a little encouragement from the Green Dragon and Matsuhiro, defeat the Black Samurai by using the Sword of Fate to break the Sword of Doom in half, destroying it and breaking the curse on the Samurai, who finally passes on to the afterlife peacefully (while it's later implied that Miss Mirimoto and Sojo were arrested due to their involvement in the power outage). Later, the gang (along with Kilpatrick, Sonja, Hashimoto as well as the Island tribe chief) attends the newly renovated Tokyo Cultural History Museum, where a statue of Scooby is erected in his honor.
