OzOkumura said: Probably because he is the heir to the Iga ninja clan and the girl is from the rival Kouga clan? Even though Ikkoti didnt know it now that he does they have even more reason to kill him i guess.Did they explain on ep 1 why that girl wants to kill MC? |

T3AJAY said: Story seems like a good idea. An interesting one, ninjas in the modern setting, future techy as nijitsu has advanced... The main character is kinda annoying though (2 episodes in) hopefully he has good character development and becomes less annoying as the story goes on. I feel like he'll still be an annoying idiot 11 episodes in before something finally changes. Maybe his mom supposedly dies or a girl he likes, idk Eventually he'll seize to be whiny as he gets trained, i'd assume. |
| This is starting to remind more and more of an action school LN, albeit with some obvious Okouchi tropes. Was he a part time writer for this show besides Gundam lol? |

The script writer has no other entry, seems like a newcomer to this so we can't find out any parallels from other stuff xD Still makes not much sense that they introduced a ninja school where Ittoki could have been sent to in the first place. |

Well, it could have worked with a bigger budget (seriously, a mecha school in Gundam still makes sense despite attempts to pander to teenagers), but at this point in time, the decision to introduce a ninja school looks pretty cheesy. It feels too much like an adaptation of LN from 00s. |

For me it feels outdated like the average VN adaptations from those years, they would never hold up nowadays as most of them also have indecisive and wimpy MC's like Ittoki. |

I have no doubt that the MC will become hokage in the ultimate end. I just don't like original shows that look like adaptations. |

No idea what end goal they have in mind so far but i'll take hokage route for the laughs. Maybe there's gonna be unexpected actual original decisions in the future, it does seem that the girl that tried to off him got possibly killed already so that's a start? |

Well, Troika are experienced guys in making original anime, so I still have some hope. I mean, the guys even have their own quasi-Gundam. |

AlexisMG1997 said: I really like the Opening, has a kind of old feeling as 2000s animes. Btw, I caught some Naruto references Noticed that as well especially for the verse, seems very inspired from Asian Kung-Fu Generation albeit admittedly weaker than their songs. |

| Okay the camo makes some sense since I actually know what technology they are basing that off of but it makes no sense how it essentially materializes out of thin our on their body taking up literally no physical space when it’s not visible. Feels like the writing is sloppy or just does a poor job at explaining things at least |

| Gabu's death was unexpected. |

| Second episode, and it's still the same recycled "you gotta take responsibility" plot. This should've been in 2000's instead of now of all times lol. |

| After watching the first two episodes, I can see what Toshiyuki Nagano means by the anime having an AIC feeling to it rather than something from TROYCA. I also noticed some Tenchi inspiration behind the anime - which is not surprising as Tenchi was the reason why Nagano chose to work in the anime industry and for also AIC that matter. But besides that, the anime feels very generic thus far, as it lacks that over the top craziness of anime produced during the OVA boom and/or the 90s (e.g., Tenchi); which is what I’m assuming the staff was aiming for. Though the anime’s staff is comprised of mainly inexperienced staff rather than veterans so it’s not that surprising for that to be the case, and I’m guessing the reason behind not using veterans was to replicate the anime during the OVA boom. |

| Ittoki must be proud of her mama, manage to shoulder ninja village trouble as a non-ninja. So stop being annoying, Ittoki. Then the reason behind his pass actually because of his heart. Interesting principal, interesting principal. Might do another the power of friendship shit take. But oh well, let's go Ittoki, better enter the unknown ninja school than being stranded inside the uninhabitate island, right? Island ... Island ... Betrayal ... |
 Hide and seek is the best offline games on this fatamorgana-called-world-thing. Please comment nicely. I am newbie here. I'm level  on mal-badges. View my badges  |
| Must be a confusing time for Ittoki who just learned about ninjas and now has to deal with murder attempts and a sudden exam, but I kinda wish he puts his athleticism to good use. |
 |
| That fire and water jutsu He's been using are really different from what we watch XD This is very amusing and interesting :) |

| Uwa (korean), they have a ninja school and there is a promo video that comes off as fake to Ittoki and the commoners. Suzaku? Guess its someone to remember when Ittoki goes to school. |
 |
| Didn't think this anime would have the balls to kill off its characters after the cop fake-out, but apparently it does. |
