It's funny you mention the beard... I knew Special Forces guys when I was in Afghanistan that did the same thing. Oddly enough, for the same reason as well.
I feel like it would make more sense for a spy to travel along common access routes and blend in with the normal foot traffic and people in that area. Perhaps pretending to be a merchant or farmer or everyday samurai. Then once in the general area take on the ninja persona at night, or during the day if applicable. Sneaking long distance through terrain hoping to never be seen seems difficult.
Cool video as always! it's really fun and very interesting to hear you talk about Ninja and Samurai but I sense a disturbing enjoyment with slitting throats and cutting off heads :-D
it would be cool to squeme a hard mission for us followers to write on comments how we would do to complete the mission... you tell us our tools place and objectives. ..
im glad you liked it ^_^ ... and then you can grade us depending on how we did or maybe make a video of the possibility of succes on the method we used. i would LOVE THAT hahahah
Hi Antony, I'd like to ask, would the payment this Shinobi operative receives be enough for their families/extended families to live off? or are they also required to work as farmers or merchants or any other job? are there instances where this Shinobi has a tradition in their families and they do train their children to be like them when they grow up?
I just discovered your channel recently and looked into your books and plan on getting them. I also came across a lot of hate online from "ninja" toward you and I just don't get it. Things like you talk about in this video are way too interesting for them to be upset over throwing stars. Yeah I read a rant from a few years ago about your stance on them and why it pissed this "ninja" off.
The Metatron explains this really well. Think of it like James Bond. His primary duties are spywork, sabotage, mcguffin retrieval etc.. but he still can and will kill people if need be or ordered to.
I think that the closest thing to a real ninja in modern times would be a combination of a green beret or navy seal and Viet Conf solider in the Vietnam war. Today's soldiers too much technology
right Mr Cummins shinobi no mono some time contracted by the lord they wait until called to do mission that also contracted by lord assassination the high rank samurai of the enemy only if lord wish it rest the time they train keep them self fit and if they family they act like nothing going on so with life as normal until war brake out or mission mush like to day but shinobi this time would will do like me train blend in to normal life go to store it way of life you have commented to be shinobi no mono but yet shinobi was samurai so his life was to serve as will to survived
what would a shinobi be like if he lived in todays society, maybe in some wartorn country like iraq, Ukraine or syria? or if he was working for the cia, mi6 or some other intelligence group in russia or china?
Please tell me there's a part 2 to this...
Anthony, you know enough and are imaginative enough to write a historical fiction novel featuring ninja/s.
I would love to do it, it is a dream of mine and one day, maybe when i have more fans and can guarantee publication i will do it.
Antony Cummins You would be amazed at how much people learn just by listening to the story you just posted.

I look forward to a part two of this video. I love the way you verbally paint the story.

Abdulazeez Al-Nasser THIS is a question id like to find an answer...
Ninja were usually members of the samurai class, so they would usually already have enough money to live off of.
This was really immersive. I look forward to more.
Thank you. I will get on them :)
Antony you're a great story teller.

You have come in towards the end of the hate. It was massive in 2010 now the research is getting into the ninja community.
I wish to see part 2 soon :) your info about ninjas and japanese history around those times are impressinf! Good job

That was a really well-made video, good job! :D

When is the next part of this video coming , antony?
No the hair is for the receptors that grow at the ends after 3 year of growing
what do you think about jinichi Kawakami?
is he the last true Shinobi?
I am a big fan of samurai and Ninja
Please, can you recommend some good Japanese movies about ninjas in feudal period?
I thought real Ninjutsu was about peace...?
Not at all
The Metatron explains this really well.

os ninjas sao mortíferos perigosos e exímios matadores, nos filmes e também o foram no passado
