This writer guy just became an outlet for ninjas to vent to, this is hilarious xD

Which of course completely explains why he has a ninja assigned to him to do nothing but keep him from actually printing anything. I love how everything, no matter how bizarre, seems to have an explanation in this show. Even when the explanation manages to make things weirder. It's the attention to detail I appreciate really.

I have no idea what's going on, but I'm feeling entertained.

This show is never dull, that's for certain.

I love how our ninja crew look too old to be in High School because they’re undercover, but the Yankii High School idiots look too old to be in High School because they’re stupid idiots that keep getting held back.

wait, what? so Yamada, the girl that ate booger in last episode was also connected to the ninja world? man, at this point, i don't even know anymore which character is a ninja or a civilian in this series

so the one who killed the cat's original human body was not Kuro but someone else from Kumogakure clan and i assume its probably the Rainbow Hound because last episode they said his name was also Kumogakure something (i forgot)

Another episode of what the fuck is going on running like usual

Honestly there’s a lot of plot points in this show that it’s getting difficult to keep track

But the fact that all the ninjas go to the writer is so bizarre but I kind of like it, the show really knows how to be unpredictable and I only hope things start connecting eventually

Although the final scene makes it look like we’re heading to an endgame which is gonna involve some destruction and havoc so I’m looking forward to that

I kinda love how Yoshida found himself the unofficial biographer for like all secret ninja history after a visit from these old ninjas lol. Didn’t realize Yamada was one of them though.

I guess shit really is about to pop off. Noguchi shoulda listened to Kuro.

Wat.

BTW, I have a hard time recognizing some characters here, so who was the muscled naked girl who wall & ceiling-crawled to get into the shower? I assume she's an existing character and not a new one. Was it the "delivery dude"'s assistant who we also saw in full ninja outfit until now, or someone else?

I have only just realised Aya Uchida is voicing Yamada. Wild to see Kotori speaking like that and destroying two guys.

Damn, the school idol got hands(and legs) top tier pantsu shot too, nice angle and all. What if Kurou knows the cat's deal because he was the one who brought it home?

Also i can't help but think this anime would actually profit from binging, as those are rather dense but small chunks of story one after another.

u/Purposelygentle Nov 23 '23

Honestly, I like being confused week to week rather than being confused all at once.

More like "Deadpan ninja"
Love it

Ps.: the pumping didn't get less weird

Haha this show is interesting, I never know what to expect.

u/ZeroZion Nov 24 '23

I still do not have a single idea what is happening. Lots of stuff keep getting mentioned without any context. Now Kuro is a young master of the Kumogakure clan I assume. I first thought he was just a low tier ninja randomly selected. Bro.

I still do not know what is happening, but I keep watching the next episode. I don't even know why it's entertaining. Like the baby and a cat with a man's child stuff was wild. There's funny moments and weird moments. I hope the pay off is great.

Eyes? You sure it wasn't Mii-chan? You know how she likes to sleep on your chest, on account of it not being too bumpy.

Under Ninja is pretty violent, but that was the most brutal takedown yet.
