  1. WTF? They say ICONIC, then , Deadly, those are totally different (like
    sayng batman is way more popular than Dr. Manhattan when they talk about
    powerful characters)

  2. Also,do not forget that kisho’s or “ninjas’ were from the mountain
    regions,and originally mercenaries, they were also used as assassins
    yes,but did skirmishes and fight along samurai in the clan wars.

  3. 忍者と関係ない物もありますね。忍者ではなくて「古武術」の「武器術、暗器術」ですね。
    しかも、手裏剣にしても種類は他にもありますし、鎌は琉球武術にもありますし…
    他にも突っ込み所が多いので、やはり経験者や鍛練されている方々以外の外国人には理解出来ないんでしょうね…

  4. it’s speculated that they used the wakizashi swords.Yes,your correct on
    it’s a theory but it’s wildly adopted,so it is used as a fact. They also
    used the chokuto short blades
