Shinobi (series)/YMMV: Difference between revisions

* [[Game Breaker]]: The Art of ''Mijin''. The explosion, while costing you a life, also restores your health meter, takes out nearby enemies, and deals a crapton of damage to bosses. More importantly, it respawns you in place instead of at the last checkpoint, preventing you from losing a large amount of progress. It also gives you another use of your special moves, so you could just use it over and over (until your lives run out, at least).

* [[Goddamn Bats]]: Many of the "minienemies" that appears in the Ps2 game have shades of this. Also, in earlier games, the ninja who were airborne had a rather nasty ability to wreck your jumps with very well placed shuriken.

* [[I Am Not Shazam]]: ''Shinobi'' is a synonym for a "ninja" (specifically of its first kanji) and not the name of a particular character.

** Both the Ninja Master and the Shadow Master are frequently called "Neo Zeed", which is the name of the criminal organization they are in charge of.
