Ninjas are a deadly combination of a spy and an assassin, making their existence highly debatable but not unreal. If you don’t believe me, then watch the upcoming Shinobi no Ittoki anime, and you’ll be rid of most of the suspicions around them.
Besides the protagonist Ittoki, the story is based around ninjas living in the shadows, hidden from the real world. This makes them a myth or fictitious entity as they continue to operate in the dark.
However, there’s no way the government won’t know about shinobis. Hence, they have established an agency called the National Security Ninjutsu Case Countermeasures Department, commonly known as Annin.
Shinobi no Ittoki anime’s latest trailer gives us a sneak peek into the workings of Annin and their various officers and detectives.
The Annin was created to regulate and keep ninjas and their clans under control. It consists of detectives like Shione Kо̄zuki and unit captains like Hayato Goshogawara and Genji Kajarishi.
Along with the Annin, the trailer is filled with ninja action, whether it’s a practice among trainees or an actual fight between pros. Since action comes hand-in-hand with emotions, we see different key characters stating their feelings out loud.
Furthermore, the video also previews the anime’s ending theme, “Oboetate” by hockrockb. The show is slated for an October 4 debut this year, so mark your calendars and begin the countdown.
Of course, the franchise has also disclosed the voices behind the characters introduced in the video:
