''[[Ninja High School]]'' is a manga-inspired comic book series created, written, and illustrated by Ben Dunn, and currently published by [[Antarctic Press]]. While it was originally intended as a parodic mini-series, the comic became so popular that it became a full series, currently totalling over 160 issues and many miniseries and special issues. The annual specials ''Ninja High School Yearbook'' and ''Ninja High School Swimsuit Edition'' [[Doujinshi|are entirely composed of art and stories created and contributed by fans]].
The story centers on [[Unlucky Everydude|Jeremy Feeple]], [[Ordinary High School Student|a student at Quagmire High]], who soon encounters a beautiful female [[Ninja|ninja]] named Itchy Koo (real name Ichikun Ichinohei) and an alien princess named Asrial -- [[Arranged Marriage|who have both been ordered to marry him]]. The earlier stories focus on [[Unwanted Harem|the girls' comedic attempts to marry this seemingly plain, ordinary high school boy]]. As the story progressed, backstories were given to the core characters, and [[Loads and Loads of Characters|an extensive supporting cast]] developed. While early stories focused mainly on slapstick, [[Cerebus Syndrome|later story arcs have become more serious]], delving into [[What Do You Mean
The series contains [[Lawyer
''Ninja High School v2'' was an attempted [[Spin
For those that wanna follow along it goes like this:
Line 43:
* [[Clip Art Animation]]: A 1995 [[Ninja High School]] collection CD did this to the first story arc. It was... controversial.
* [[Cute Witch]]: Mimi
* [[
* [[The Dark Side]]: Mimi
** [[Drunk On the Dark Side]]
Line 60:
* [[Heroic Sacrifice]]: Several throughout the series.
* [[Heir to The Dojo]]: Ichi again and Ricky post second Timeskip.
* [[Highly
* [[Hot Librarian]]: Mimi Masters, Mita Celande.
* [[Hot Shounen Mom]]: Jeremy's mother, Anna.
Line 68:
* [[Jerkass]]: Lendo, before [[Character Development]] post-Timeskip turned him into a [[Badass Normal]] version of a [[Replacement Flat Character]]. Tetsuo took his place as the resident Jerkass to Ricky in the second series.
* [[Keep Circulating the Tapes|Keep Passing Around The Comics]]: The volumes of the original series only cover one half of the comics. The other half, including the volume two comics have yet to have any volume sets.
* [[Lawyer
* [[Loads and Loads of Characters]]: Mostly due to all the expies running around.
* [[Love Dodecahedron]]: Natch.
Line 91:
* [[Royal Brat]]: Asrial and her sister Andromeda, though not all that bad they have an annoying habit of letting everyone know it when they get the chance.
* [[Samus Is a Girl]]: Introduction of Sammi, who was forced to cross-dress due to her father not wanting to lose a bet and go into bankruptcy.
* [[Screw the Rules, I Have Money]]: Rival-san Lendo and Tetsuo Rivalsan.
* [[Screw Destiny]]: Or rather "Screw Tradition" which Ricky does, bringing him into conflict with the Elder Stars.
* [[Shapeshifting Lover]]
Line 100:
{{quote| '''Ricky''': That gotta be the second biggest Hitler robot I've ever seen!}}
* [[Super Strength]]: One of the powers of a "Salusian of Imperial birth" like Asrial.
* [[Super
** Thanks to a brainwashing early in the series, ''Jeremy'' also has a super''genius'' evil side ([[Badass Normal|good in a fight, too]]), more or less [[Doctor Doom]] in a [[Putting On the Reich|Nazi-esque]] uniform.
* [[Take a Third Option]]: How Tetsuo manages to get one over on the Elder Stars {{spoiler|After they deny him the choice of marrying his true love. He decides to play it their way and follow tradition, which means he could spread his secrets to other ninja clans and bankrupt them financially without breaking from their iron clad traditions. Say the least while he doesn't beat them psychically (he tried but was no match) he manages to do so by sheer wit and turning their customs back at them.}}
* [[Testosterone Poisoning]]: Akaru, an island native who doesn't know anything about modern civilization and largely judges everything on how manly it is.
* [[Troperiffic]]: Or a [[
* [[Time Skip]]: Starting with Issue 75, which picks up 5 years after the original series, and later in Issue 168, which takes place seven years after ''that.''
* [[Took a Level In Badass]]: Rival-san Lendo after the [[Time Skip]]. Sora, when she had her chi unlocked by her grandfather.
Line 110:
* [[Unsound Effect]]
* [[Weirdness Magnet]]: The Feeple Family and the town of Quagmire in general.
* [[What Happened to The Mouse?]]: A literal example of this occurs in Issue #14, when a (normal sized) talking rat appears before Jeremy with a message from his father, Bob Feeple inviting Jeremy to Dimension X, where Bob has become Emperor of the Rats. The rat uses a dimensional beam gun to spirit Jeremy, Asrial, and Ichi to Dimension X which is populated by human sized anthropomorphic rats. The original rat is never seen or mentioned again.
* [[What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart Anyway]]: This is actually Jeremy's shining trait in the first series. Despite being surround by supernaturals and extraterrestrials, he can calm a situation simply by being himself and attempting to talk it down. Course if need be he will fight if he has to but the former is his true "power".
