Well, I wanted to get the article posted quickly because it's been 2 weeks since I've had new article up. My secret plan was to sneak Wrath of the Black Manta and Warrior Blade into the article when no one was looking. I guess it's not a secret plan anymore. Also, the plan has not yet come to fruition.

While I still haven't finished reading the whole article yet, I did read "Wrath of the Black Manta". I was surprised to see Ninjas using kites to fly. This is awesome, because I just saw real ninjas using this technique in a little movie known as Duel to the Death.

True as that may be, ninjas are also WAY better in person then in 2D.

I beg to differ. Maybe you think they're better in 3D on a screen, but in person they are NOT cool. I had a friend in Miami, Ninja Chris, who got that name because he was actually a ninja. My friends and I were playing poker at his apartment when he came home (We weren't just crashing there, he obviously lived with some of our other friends.) He had just done poorly on a final so he grabbed his throwing stars and started taking his aggression out on the door...that was right next to our card game. Fuckign scary, man.

There's two problems with your story:
1. A real ninja would have passed the test
2. A real ninja would have enough self discipline not to throw stars at a door
Your friend wasn't a ninja; he was a fucking poser who happened to own ninja stars.

Sometimes I forget that you're the expert on ninjas, what with all your ninja skills and all. And yeah, he had throwing stars, swords, and all the skills needed to be a ninja (except the ability to fly, but that's only in movies and cartoons). And yes, he was Asian.
