The shadow warriors of feudal Japan, reputedly possessed of all manner of mysterious powers known as ninjutsu, including invisibility and intangibility. Able to infiltrate even the most heavily guarded fortress without being detected. If they are caught, they may trick their pursuers by mysteriously swapping places with a log. They may be portrayed as cutting down any opposition with superhuman swiftness. Traditionally dressed in black bodysuits with black masks or veils to hide their faces (or sometimes in white). They are the ultimate spies and assassins, gifted with their own deadly magic and martial arts. Born in hidden villages, they are trained from birth to obey nindo, an alternative Code of Honor to bushido; to show no pain, feel no emotion, and remain loyal to their clans under pain of death — or the third code of getting as much money as possible. Or so popular legend has it. While ninjas did indeed exist, their reputation for invisibility and infiltration more likely stemmed from their willingness to dress as members of a lower social class when no one in the nobility of Japan would consider doing such a thing. Their "invisibility" was part psychological in cause — by dressing as a peasant, they were ignored and dismissed, or never even noticed at all, by the upper classes, a useful thing despite the oft fierce travel restrictions on the lower classes. Superior knowledge of survival skills, a lot of actual stealth, poisons, assassination techniques and unorthodox tactics (added to the fact that the ninjas actively encouraged the spread of rumors of their magical abilities) were the most important though. A popular myth states that ninjas came from lower classes (at least compared to the samurai) and they were often hired to do the dirty deeds honorable samurai would not do, but in reality ninjas were usually samurai, or in rare cases, mercenaries hired by samurai. Ninjas were mainly deployed for espionage, sabotage, and sometimes assassination. More recent research indicates that ninja as even well-learnt historians thought of them may not have existed at all. All of the most famous historical figures known today as ninja were also samurai, specializing in guerilla tactics and espionage aside from the usual skills samurai were known for. One of the most popular Sengoku-era historians, Stephen Turnbull, has also written a dissertation refuting his own previously published work on ninja, bolstering the theory that a lot of what we know about (real-life, historical) ninja may also be based on legend and unreliable sources. Ninjas were also quite skilled with a variety of tools, such as the multipurpose kunai. Plainly put, while a stereotypical ninja would jump around on rooftops in ridiculous clothing, a real ninja most likely would simply infiltrate the household staff and poison a meal. Among many other things, a good ninja always knew where his sanjaku tenugui was. The "classic" black ninja costume is, in fact, the outfit worn by stagehands in traditional Japanese theatre. Japanese stagehands are frequently in full view on the stage, but the audience was meant to ignore them and thus they are considered "invisible" by the audience. It became a practice to hide ninja characters in full sight by putting them in the same outfits as the stagehands, for a startling effect when characters were suddenly attacked by "thin air". The stereotypical black "ninja outfit" would be actually horribly conspicuous, even at night. For night stealth, real ninjas wore dark blue outfits; someone dressed in solid black will stand out like a silhouette. Usually, though, ninjas simply dressed like ordinary people (peasants, monks, merchants, scholars, etc). That way, they can move about unnoticed, day or night. Even the split or toe-divided boots which are a trademark of the ninja costume are actually an Anachronism Stew: toe-divided shoes or ''jika-tabi'' were actually invented in the 20th century, and only some modern ninjutsu schools would adopt them for practicality reasons. Female ninja are often called kunoichi in a pun on the kanji for woman (女, onna/jo), which looks like it's made up of ku (ã��), no (ノ), and ichi (一). Kunoichi are often portrayed in media as experts in seduction and poisons. Or both at the same time. Kunoichi are also often seen in outfits that combine a hodgepodge of traditional clothing, fishnet, bared skin, and strategically-placed weapons, and tend to be given the Punny Name of "Shinobu" in media. There may be some Truth in Fiction, as real-life kunoichi would often use their attractiveness to lower the guards of their male targets in order to assassinate them in privacy or bribe information. The most common weapon for them is twin knives, which they Dual Wield and have at least one of them in a Reverse Grip. In some works of fiction, ninja are divided into three ranks: genin (lower), chÅ«nin (middle), jÅ�nin (upper). Legendary ninja include Fuuma Kotaro, Hattori Hanzō and Sarutobi Sasuke. During the Sengoku Jidai, the most prolific shinobi were of the Koka or Koga province and the Iga province, rugged, secretive clans notorious for guerilla warfare, unorthodox tactics and selling these services to warlords. Their mysterious histories and supposed rivalry have been popular fodder for Japanese fiction for years. While commonly thought to have originated in Japan, ninjas may have originated in China, and the idea and practice later spread to Japan. Historically, the word "ninja" was not generally used; in Japanese historical documents, shinobi was often used.note Strictly speaking, the word 'ninja' wasn't proper Japanese at all, originally; according to The Other Wiki, it comes from an alternate on reading of the characters å¿�ã�®è€… (shinobi-no-mono, "man in hiding/in shadow"), making 'ninja' a sort of pun. It appears to have originated as slang or code during the Meiji period, possibly in connection to the Satsuma Rebellion. In American movies, especially the ones from the '80s with "ninja" in the titles, only the hero ninja and the Big Bad ninja make any pretense of stealth or invisibility — and sometimes, not even them. Any underling ninjas will be the class of mooks known as Highly-Visible Ninja. In the late 20th Century, they became the arch-enemies of Pirates, for no reason other than the Rule of Cool. Samurai Shinobi is when you mix samurai and ninja together either for Rule of Cool or Artistic License – History. One of the earliest Japanese cultural tropes to make it to the West, where it has now branched out into the McNinja franchise. Expect the ninja to make use of the Smoke Out, the Flash Step, the Fuuma Shuriken, Kite Riding and the aforementioned Ninja Log. Compare The Hashshashin, the Middle Eastern counterpart. They're likely to be Stealthy Mooks. See Ninja Tropes for everything related to ninjas. |

Usagi Yojimbo, being set in feudal Japan, frequently features ninja. They range from enemies to allies of Usagi, with three main clans present: the Neko clan which is feline, the Mogura clan which is comprised of anthropomorphic moles and the Komori clan, which features razor-winged bats. And of course, he occasionally teams up with a certain family of Kamé ninja mentioned below. | |

Similar to MythBusters, the show Fight Science also did some work with ninja (also special ops of various nations, and fighters from other schools). They proved that ninjutsu really does have a deadly punch (compressing the rib cage enough to cause fatal damage to the heart). Insane Balance: While standing on one foot on a pole five feet tall, a ninja can dodge shuriken and not fall. |

Ninjas in Cloud of Sparrows are rather more plausible than most other examples. They are very stealthy and good at dodging pursuit, but dress in normal clothes and are primarily employed as stealthy assassins and spies. Kudo, one of the two main ninjas in the book, also indulges in a spot of Clark Kenting. He is also revealed to have poorer reflexes than gunslinger Matthew Stark. | |

The SCP Foundation universe has SCP-2928, which are literally ninja. One of the disciplines of ninjutsu that they use binds them to the idea of what a ninja is, which means that as long as whoever is looking at them believes that actual ninja are stealthy, sneaky, and undetectable, they will be. But if whoever looks at them believes that ninja are highly visible, then they stand out like a sore thumb. The Foundation intentionally funded shows that made ninja seem more open and visible to weaken them. Also, according to one of the ninja in Foundation custody, the turtles are real, but their creation involved a lot of cocaine. | |

Although Another Note does not actually describe Beyond Birthday as being a ninja, his way of doing things is certainly very ninja-like. He makes use of toxins (anesthetizing his victims with poison before actually killing them), sneaks into his victims' homes, hides in plain sight, eavesdrops on conversations, evidently works quickly, and takes on the role of an "unprivate detective" to get the families of his victims (and the Final Girl) to trust him. | |

The Discworld has a few ninja, and some reflections on the art of stealth: In Thief of Time, the Monastery of Wen the Eternally Surprised has ninja-like martial artist monks working as Time Police. Lu-Tze is highly contemptuous of anyone running around rooftops in black outfits ("others trained them, I just tried to undo the damage"), and his own strategy of passing unnoticed as a humble sweeper is actually closer to the real ninja. Similarly, in Interesting Times, we first see Highly-Visible Ninja in the imperial palace of the Agatean Empire, working as bodyguards. (They're apparently pretty good fighters, but much too flamboyant and not as good as a bunch of very, very experiencednote i.e. geriatric barbarian heroes.) Then, later, protagonist Rincewind discovers that if he just wears a farmer's hat; nobody looks at him. The Assassin's Guild of Ankh-Morpork are all but Ninja in name, though they lack any pseudo-Japanese trappings. They wear all black, the kind of black that stands out in the middle of the night, and are trained in poisons, hidden daggers, and climbing. However, the really smart Vetinari wears green and grey when intending to be stealthy as a student. The trope is also subverted in that quite a few Assassins never actually seem to "inhume" anyone, at least after their graduation exercise, preferring to use their conspicuous black clothing to attract women and their obvious presence to act as a political lever. |

James Bond: The popularity of ninja in Western media may have started with the Bond film You Only Live Twice from 1967. Most of those ninja were depicted as being more like members of an elite government special forces unit than invisible assassins, however. (Except for the one who killed the Bond girl, of course.) In Licence to Kill it is revealed that Hong Kong Narcotics employs ninjas as special agents. (Given that the Special Duties Unit of the Hong Kong Police Force were trained by the SAS before the colony was handed back to China, this may not be as far fetched as it first seems.) |

For instance, the Marvel Universe villain clan, The Hand, cropped up then, starting out as a bunch of sinister assassins-for-hire, rapidly proving to be sinister nihilistic assassins-for-hire with some mystical trimmings, and eventually evolving into world-threatening mystical all-purpose nihilist killers. Also during that period and in the same comics, Frank Miller effectively changed Daredevil into a good ninja. | |

Similarly, in Interesting Times, we first see Highly-Visible Ninja in the imperial palace of the Agatean Empire, working as bodyguards. (They're apparently pretty good fighters, but much too flamboyant and not as good as a bunch of very, very experiencednote i.e. geriatric barbarian heroes.) Then, later, protagonist Rincewind discovers that if he just wears a farmer's hat; nobody looks at him. | |

In Thief of Time, the Monastery of Wen the Eternally Surprised has ninja-like martial artist monks working as Time Police. Lu-Tze is highly contemptuous of anyone running around rooftops in black outfits ("others trained them, I just tried to undo the damage"), and his own strategy of passing unnoticed as a humble sweeper is actually closer to the real ninja. | |

Many readers, however, have noted that the original writers of Batman created him as a de facto ninja without knowing it in the 1930s. Many portrayals of the Dark Knight had him undergoing some variety of training in ninja-style arts prior to his assumption of the mantle of the Bat, such as the Christopher Nolan Batman movies which had him training with the League of Shadows. | |

The title character of the Alex Rider series dresses as a ninja in Scorpia, when going to assassinate Mrs Jones. However, he does use real ninja tactics when trying to gain access to her floor: disguising himself as a pizza boy and having his weapons hidden in or disguised as his merchandise, and only switches to the stagehand outfit when in an area he'd be thrown out of whatever he was dressed as. | |
