about Ninja

Since ancient times, Japan has continued to create a culture unique to the island nation while being influenced by foreign countries. The existence of a ninja is one of them.

However, some facts are now revealed by spinning the figures depicted in secret books handed down in various feudal lords of the Edo period and storytelling told by the common people.

Ninja’s History

There are various theories about its origin, but it is said that the existence of the ninja appeared in the light of history in 1487 (Chokyo 1).
