Questions are good things. They are there to get to know others and to find the common ground with each other, with the people we want to love. Well, I would think that the biggest thing I need to learn is to love myself. I think at least. I like lists, I make lists, mainly about anime and manga that I want to read and watch. And sometimes about American books too. My life does revolve around things that I consume. And I do not know if I am fine with that. I would like to fancy myself that I like philosophy, but in truth, I like the idea of philosophy. In the sense, philosophy means the love of knowledge, because we cannot know everything. So we need to start with things that we do not know, even though there are many famous figures in philosophy, I do not want to read from them. Because the biggest thing that I do not know if myself. And, as I am right now, I am more interested in filling the emptiness in me, if that makes sense. But I like questions. So, I went out and looked for que
Score: 6/10
Ninin ga Shinobuden or Ninja Nonsense is a 12 episode comedy anime. It is an adaptation from a manga with the same name, premiered in the summer of 2004. Producers of this show were Toshiba Entertainment and Happinet Pictures while the licensors are Nozomi Entertainment and NYAV Post.
The studio ufotable made the animation and the anime got R-17+ rating. Director Matsui Hitoyuki and sound director Aketagawa Jin worked on this show.
The anime is a wacky comedy about, as the title says, ninjas. Shiranui Kaede is a normal high school girl, learning for her exams and doing normal high school things. However, she gets to know and befriend a ninja-in-training, the good for nothing and clumsy Shinobu and her life changes forever.
The story, all in all, is not something that I would call offensive. It is, however, a little bit forgettable. There are nice comedic touches and from time to time drama enters the scene too, the whole anime sadly ends up being cute forgettable. There is a dose of healthy pervert humor the rest I couldn't really remember. Most of the happenings in the story occur because of Onsokumaru, their so-called master who is a pac-man-like thing and the humor comes from the ninjas being quite bad and incompetent in everyday life and in being ninjas as well.
The art is good, the animation is not stellar, however, there aren't parts when you would feel that it is falling apart. For a comedy, however, it does feel like it is a little bit slow in its pacing. The punches would hit better if the episodes weren't so long, I think that they could have worked with shorter episode lengths or with trying to put more content in the 24-minute episode.
There isn't a plot that we can talk about in this one, it is mostly slice-of-life fun running from one topic from the other. And from time to time, because of the pacing it becomes really tedious to sit through one episode. But it could be that it is my personal fault with not being patient enough with the show. I think that I had given it enough time to bud, but there are things that I just can't get over.
Kaede mostly accompanies Shinobu on her journey of trying to pass her ninja exam and become a ninja in modern-day Japan. That's how I would summerise the plot.
The opening, on the other hand, is really catchy. That is the one thing that remained with me.
I can recommend it to people who like comedy. It is a good time when you want to lean back and enjoy something light-hearted.

Trivia: There is a cute subplot (if you can say that this anime has a plot) about Shinobu being in love with Kaede, and that is quite nice. At those points, when something like this comes out, I started to really like it and my reasoning for a 6/10 is because of Kaede and Shinobu's relationship. I would have liked them spending more time on it.
