We should Ask A Ninja what happened.

Ninjas, then vampires, then zombies, followed by superheroes.

Go ninja go ninja go ninja GO!

What if ninjas are always everywhere but in the 90s they weren’t that sneaky?

If they were good ninjas we wouldn’t have known about them.

Ninjas -> Pirates -> Vikings -> knights cyclus

Batman is a ninja too.

Unsure what the fuck it has to do with Star Trek tbh

Edit: oooh wait, I misread your username as the community name 😅

Daredevil was a super-popular comic at the time, along with X-Men [featuring Wolverine]

Daredevil fought a ninja army called ‘The Hand,’ and the near-immortal Wolverine was revealed to have studied the ninja arts in his past.

That lead to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, who fought The Foot Clan.

Now all of those secret, stealthy ninja’s have been replaced by flock cameras. /s

Apparently it’s still the 90s in BotW-era Hyrule because I can’t hardly go anywhere without getting ambushed by banana-obsessed ninjas.

For all we know, they could still be around. Who can tell with ninjas?

When you think about it, the ninja you see has already failed (unless of course there’s a second ninja using the distraction).

Unless you go back to the 80s and those ninjas, then the list is not complete.

Enter the Ninja

So many good video rentals for friday nights and pizza.

I remember this era it was like if you weren’t a ninja, training to become a ninja, or doing some kind of ninja support work—it was like wtf are you doing? Are you a nonja? A fucken… noneja? Go back to your dojo and try harder.

Also a spoonful of orientalism mixed in there, as my culture likes to do.
