Was pretty strange, not in a good way and seems skippable, but I will give it another try.

Dafuq, 3 studios, 2 producers, someone who can draw (carrying the project but isn't listed in the staff), literally no animator, and 2 people doing an amateur edgy script ?

I kept thinking it would improve when weird stuff was happening, but it didn't.
The MC's v.a. is also pretty subpar; I'm disappointed.

I thought it would at least be a normal-length show.

They call that an anime? Is Ninja Collection a joke or something? Holy cow! What a waste of time.

The animation is like that because is a Spin-off of Yami-shibai, where the animation is like a Kamishibai.

And yes, I want to know how this is a Spin-off from YamiShibai

Well, it certainly looks like Yamishibai, it even seems like it's supposed to be horror.

You only need to make some drawing, install Vegas Pro or Premiere Pro and add random effects xD

Wow...That was...

Actually I don't have words to describe that. It felt like a parody but there were no jokes. Just horrible voice acting and animation that hurt my soul.

I guess all I gotta say is: Anime has truly evolved.

What a terrible show. It's not anime but kamishibai (story telling with picture boards).
This web anime is far better than that.

well it is related to Yami Shibai so it makes sense.

It seems that most of the commentators didn't. I did and liked seasons 1-3. 5 was decent as well. Others weren't that good.

I haven't watched Yamishibai, but there's too many people claiming to work on this, and the quality is only there for the drawings. Ever heard of "the newbie is digging while 10 guys bicker on the side" ?

No, but Yamshibai and this show are made in the exact same style. I think some of the staff worked on both. The art style here is done on purpose. It isn't a lack of budget or anything. That is how this show is suppose to look. Just like Yamishibai.

Anyway, I like the animation style and I like the concept, cool school age ninjas in modern times fighting back a smoke/darkness that most can't see. Cant wait to see what the story truly is.

Exactly like Yami Shibai. I hope it's more like the first couple of seasons of Yami Shibai and not the last ones.

This anime is getting slaughtered scorewise. I'm not saying it's good (it's mediocre at best) but I think this is more a case of having a) different animation style (which the MAL herd hates), b) having a horror angle which is also not very popular in these parts.

I liked Yamishibai and knew this was the same studio the second I saw it, so I knew what to expect going in. I thought it was pretty enjoyable, though the visual style doesn't work as well here as it does with Yamishibai. Still, I'll keep watching.

Don't think of this as an anime. Think of it as a unique animated short that was made in Japan. There are plenty of Japanese animations that don't fit the typical "anime" mold. Tsumiki no Ie is a good example (which is much better than this)

Looking at the cover poster, I didn't expect a powerpoint slide style animation and especially not the kinda meh story. Feels like some schoolproject rather than an actual adaptation.

I don't mind about the animation style, since that it the style that fits with Yamishibai, but the story makes no sense and is boring.
