Line 39:

Tropes used in Shinobi:
* [[Above the Ruins]]: The ending of ''Shinobi III'', where Joe looks at the remains of Neo Zeed's aerial base from a cliff after it crashes into the ground.
* [[Airborne Aircraft Carrier]]: In the Final Mission of ''Shinobi III'' Joe boards Neo Zeed's flying fortress and has to navigate past its automated defenses in order to reach the final duel with the Shadow Master.
Line 63 ⟶ 62:
* [[Continuity Nod]]: Of sorts in the [[Nintendo 3DS|3DS]] version. Enemies from past games like the Brain Mutants make an appearance, and one stage has Jiro {{spoiler|board a Zeed warship identical to the one in the final level of ''Shinobi III''.}}
* [[Convection, Schmonvection]]: The fourth area in the PS2 version is filled with lava pools and fire-spitting foes. Yet, Hotsuma has no problem whatsoever walking around. He's damaged only if hits the magma.
* [[Damsel in Distress]]: Naoko in ''Revenge of Shinobi'' and Aya in ''Shinobi Legions''.▼
* [[Dangerous Technique]]: The [[MacGuffin]] in ''Shinobi Legions/X''.
* [[Defeat Equals Explosion]]: Enemies tend to explode when they die.
Line 70:
* [[Directionally Solid Platforms]]: In 2D games.
* [[Dirty Coward]]: Hakuraku, who will summon ninja hounds and keep healing himself using scrolls from his magical box.
▲* [[Damsel in Distress]]: Naoko in ''Revenge of Shinobi'' and Aya in ''Shinobi Legions''.
* [[Dub-Induced Plot Hole]]: The [[Master System]] version of ''Shadow Dancer'' identifies the player character as "Fuma" in the attract sequence and "Takashi" in the manual.
* [[Elemental Powers]]
Line 154 ⟶ 153:
{{quote|'''Loading Screen:''' Everyone knows real ninjas eat chicken, not [[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles|pizza]].}}
* [[Throwing Your Sword Always Works]]: Sho in ''Legions'' does this to save Aya from getting backstabbed.
* [[The Un-Reveal]]: That the [[Malevolent Masked Man]] alongside Hiruko is Moritsune is painfully obvious. {{spoiler|That Aomizuchi was possessing him however, wasn't so obvious...}}▼
* [[To Be Continued]]: We are told this after the credits in ''Shinobi III'', but Joe's story isn't continued at all in the other games.
▲* [[The Un-Reveal]]: That the [[Malevolent Masked Man]] alongside Hiruko is Moritsune is painfully obvious. {{spoiler|That Aomizuchi was possessing him however, wasn't so obvious...}}
* [[We Can Rule Together]]: [[Big Bad|Kazuma]] tries this in the final stage of Shinobi Legions. This example differs from most [[Video Game]] examples of this trope, as Sho automatically says no.
* [[A Winner Is You]]: The ending in the arcade ''Shinobi'' wasn't anything special to begin with, but it sure beats the Master System port, which awards the player with a blank Game Over screen (the same one you can get for losing the game).
