rank-and-file ninjas. He enrolls in the Ninjutsu Academy, hoping his parents’ hopes for him to become a top-class ninja grow. There, he meets Shinbei, the son of a wealthy merchant from Sakai, and Kirimaru, who lives a tough life despite losing his parents in the war. Students at the Ninjutsu Academy are called “ninja trainees,” or “ninjas in training.” The Ninjutsu Academy is a lively place, filled with a mysterious ninja genius principal, unique teachers and upperclassmen, the somewhat formidable girls of the “Kunoichi Classroom,” and the ninja dog Hem Hem! Rantaro and his friends always fail their classes and exams, and for some reason, always end up doing poorly. Although they still have a long way to go before they become great ninjas, every day at Nintama is bright, fun, and enjoyable! Kukuchiheisuke
