Meet a Modern Day Shinobi in 2023 Anime

Under Ninja

By Epic Dope Staff | September 7, 2022

‘Under Ninja’ is a tale of an unemployed ninja. I know the two words barely fit together, but hear me out.

The Under Ninja manga series by Kengo Hanazawa will receive an anime adaptation in 2023. The studio, and release date will be confirmed at a later date.

Under Ninja takes the concepts of ninjas pretty seriously and portrays how they would blend in the present world.

The 17-year-old MC, Kurou, silently practices his skills, rarely gets any jobs, and is ill-treated by his seniors. To no one’s surprise, a new job relights his enthusiasm.

Fledglings like Kurou can be found a dime a dozen, so ninja organizations don’t think twice before disposing of them.

Although a studio hasn’t been revealed yet, I hope that the series receives a fitting art style. A new world of ninjas and politics is about to open up to you.
