About

Setting The story is set during the Sengoku period of the Muromachi era, but it is built on a unique peaceful philosophy where invading other countries to expand territory is considered wrong, rather than focusing on brutal power struggles. Relationships While there are clear antagonists like Dokutake Castle, the focus is primarily on the heartwarming daily life at Ninjutsu Academy and the slapstick antics of the students and teachers. Academy Information Location: Deep in the mountains of the Kinki region (kept secret) Founder: Heiji Uzumasa Okawa Features: Students are called "Nintama" (ninja eggs) and live in dormitories while learning ninjutsu. Classes and Faculty Year Groups: Vertical classes from 1st to 6th year (the story often focuses on Class 1-Ha). Kunoichi Class: There is also a class for female students. Affiliates: Home to unique teachers, reliable upperclassmen, and formidable kunoichi. Committee Activities Roles: In addition to classes, students belong to committees that manage the academy and assist with events. Main Committees: Health, Biology, Library, Etiquette, Equipment, Accounting, Physical Education, etc. Everyone addresses each other by their first names. You are all classmates.
