don't think i've heard of them.
ninjas are cooler haha.

in what universe is a pirate better than a ninja?
ninja's look cooler, have cooler weapons, have cooler abilities, probably get hotter babes because of said coolness

aside from plundering ships on open seas, where would a ninja be worse off than a pirate?
in fact i would go so far as to say that even fictional pirate representations would be better off with ninjas. i mean come on, who would not want to see ninjas of the caribbean. johnny depp might not be able to pull it off, but maybe they could bring michael dudikoff out of retirement.

lol, that post was full of ninja awesomeness.
Ninjas of the Caribbean... I'm in for that.

I would rather be a ninja, no question. Who'd want to be on a ship of stinkin' pirates getting the scurvy?

like i said, only if there are wenches

i saw wenches in vegas. i was not impressed.

ninjas were not celibate or castrated! what kinda bonkers idea is that? for reference see any manga/anime about ninja. heck there's even sex in naruto. a kids show.
besides there's no reason a ninja couldn't party it up and score with hot babes. you just may not know they are ninja cuz...well they are freaking ninja!

[nature boy]

original ninjas i thought were castrated. the original ones were the ones who weren't just assassins, but discharged samurai who were trying to overthrow the government.

i remember reading that some samurai were castrated.

[geForce]

What would the reason be for ninjas to be castrated? There has to be a reason for it right?

[nature boy]

because they're ex-samurai. and (some) samurai i thought we castrated. i could be totally wrong on this one though.

[geForce]

They were castrated as punishment for dishonouring Samurai? Or because samurai were castrated?

I didn't think castration was a common practice in Japan.

[nature boy]

royal servants are castrated, so they don't taint the bloodline.
