Well well well
It was sad but we all saw that coming the previous chief was probably killed in the way too I guess..
The White hair dude is the one behind this murder or the red hair dude.(suzaku I guess his name )
This might be a reach but the uncle (So called best Ninja he might be behind too)
But my First guess was the lady whose husband is in hospital I think she did it don't know but just a feeling when I was watching the episode.

2epi left we will eventually found out soon.

no way they killed the mom. rip.

time for ittoki character development i guess and i hope so.

i knew they would try to redeem the yellow haired girl.

no one is more devasted as kousetsu. not even ittoki. imagine having to carry the burden of killing her even though she was being controlled. the controlling though wasn't explained. there's gotta be some connection for that dude to control kousetsu from a distance.

was really shocking to see the death. but wasn't emotional at all, you would expect to get a bit misty-eyed but nope this anime has done a terrible job at makimg us emotionally invested in this anime and it's been 9 episodes man/ there are anime which make us emotionally invested in a single episode.

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.
Feeling half happy, half sad.

We all know Ittoki isn't going to go to war with Koga over his mum's death, he isn't that typa character. I hope he immerses himself in training and gets better at being a bloody ninja.

High intensity episode, probably the best of the series so far

Although that doesn't changes the fact that it wasn't upto the mark and the plot holes of this show too, at one side where AINNN isn't clear among themselves, you got Iga who are letting other ninja people in their secret base, anyways finger crossed

Holy shit I was not expecting this to get so dark. I thought kosetsu would snap out of it but to actually have her kill the village head… wow. This show was so mid up until this point.

Kousetsu has gotta be the most hated character in anime rn. And if she is im all for it


Why? She's not the one who killed her, and she was being mind controlled too. Did you miss that part?

No I know she was mind controlled and didn't do it under her own will, im just saying I've hated her character since the beginning and although this wasn't her doing it still makes me dislike her more

She did kill her. She wasn’t in control when she did however. Did you even watch the show? Don’t reply to my comments with bs

She is the one who physically killed the mom because she is the child of the Koga leader who implanted brain chips into his kids. Yes there’s a traitor but Kosetsu is the one who killed the village head. Again don’t comment on my shit if you got dumb shit to say.

Hold on, hold on! Why now after things kinda be looking under control? Holy shit never expected it to happens right there even after all that difficult shit, Ittoki can't catch a break xd. Well at least Kirei had her redemption momentum but one girl still had her rough part going on. Rip for the backstabbed captain though, and looks like things going into more chaos next with Koga heavily attacks every village. Alright, been a fun ride rn, 3 last episode i guess, and i already catch up to the latest part. Holy shit...

When a show hits you in the feelings, it has to hit you hard. Ittoki has survived his toughest battle yet, but he has lost something, or rather someone, very important to him. With this episode, the stakes have been raised and the villains have proven they're playing for keeps.

The good news is that I'm genuinely excited to see where this show goes next. The bad news is that it took 9 episodes for this show to git gud. Time to push forward.

I don't really understand what people mean when they say the series is starting to get good because it honestly isn't.

It hasn't earned any of the moments it's tried to go for in this episode, and the mind control Kousetsu thing was a complete asspull that came out of nowhere.

How am I supposed to feel sad about Yumika dying when the series has done little to actually endear her to me? She's been written as a complete moron in regards to how she handled Ittoki and his training, and has never had anymore personality beyond generic anime mom who's kind to everyone and stern sometimes, while everyone talks about how great she is.

Also 9 episodes in and the world building is so bad we don't actually know why ninjas exist or what their role in this world is, since they seemingly don't do anything beyond screw with each other.

I was thinking she didn't realize how of a burden she was insisting on entering a war zone and not knowing how to fight or at least defend herself. Guess that doesn't matter now.

Whether he likes it or not, it looks like Ittoki is finally embracing his role as a ninja. Like seriously, he doesn't have much of a choice at this point.

Dealing with all those machines looks like a real pain..and this episode wasn't afraid of taking its risks.
Well you kinda have to when your life is on the line. I get being hesitant at first because you dont know what happening but he is doing good now that he knows the stakes.

I absolutely not expect the traitor to be that person. (I know that mind control is involved but it still surprising).

Kirei consciously obeyed her clan to become double agent that would've betrayed Iga are the right moment, but she chose not to.
Meanwhile Kousetsu who to her mind was genuinely loyal this entire time was a sleeper agent. Hence the the looks in her eyes after her body uncontrollably committed the crime.

"He comes through when it counts".

When? Ittoki has done absolutely nothing since the start of this anime. It's the other characters who have been achieving everything.

shinobi no ittoki is still better than bland and boring spy x family which was disapointment, ppl mention here mc guy to be a wuss (cuz they wanted OP guy which can do anything) and plot, man here is more plot , plot twist and action and more deaths than in spy x family which idk what represent anymore. this ep 9 was just wow it was so good and ending was so sad and unexpected in looking foward to last 3 ep.
@Sekiro94 the plot twist are non existent in this anime, nothing gets you excited just because it's so bad written. The "plot twists" you mention have no build up whatsoever just because the author comes up and says "dude look some cool stuff the protagonist's friend is being controlled by the enemy since birth" is not a plot twist it's just a way of continuing the already bad story

@Sekiro94

This is a generic show with no interesting characters, no interesting plot or interesting themes, the animation isn't even good to make up for it.
It's not any better than any generic isekai because it has the exact same problems, and it sure as hell don't compare to Spy x Family.
