    My understanding of ninja is that they were more like spies than the assassins portrayed in media when I was growing up. Multilinguilism and mastering a common trade to fit in in different areas was more important than weapon skills. And most fighting skills were based around common farming and tradesman's tools that would always be availabe without their presence seeming suspicious. I'm sure their roles changed over time, though.

  • @radoslavkosil7450

    If you are a fan of ninja, you probably know that they used many different kinds of tools depending on their specialties as spies and assassins.
    - ninjas/shinobi no mono are not trained assasins
    but over all nice video :D

    • @KelbPanthera

      More accurate still; they weren't *all* assassins. Most weren't. A few were. The spy game hasn't changed that much over the centuries.

    • @kidthorazine
      @kidthorazine 3 года назад +2

      some of them might have been, I mean a lot of them where trained soldiers (either samurai or ashigaru) so they knew how to kill people and they knew how to sneak around, and really that's all you need. Now it is true that assassination was an extremely small part of what ninja did, and most ninja never assassinated anyone.

    • @marcosyy87

      I am just an American but I watch the NHK Japanese tv export television channel quite often. According to a yakuza lifestyle documentary that I saw last year, many yakuza see themselves as noble people who help average working people settle disputes that the modern police think are too trivial to deal with such as collecting gambling debts.

    • @gyounce1
      @gyounce1 3 года назад +1

      @@gwillis01 I always see that in Yakuza movies. There's often a character to profess that being a Yakuza is honorable- to be a protector, what it means to be a real man. Pretty neat. I like the concept at least. Of course we're aware that the Yakuza do many criminal things too, although I'm not personally opposed to prostitution as long as the prostitutes are treated well. I've nothing against drug trafficking as drug use and addiction is the fault of the individual, so the provider should not be blamed so long as the client is an adult.

In depth they consist of having yata-te (writing tool), inro (medicine box), tenugui or rokushaku tenigui (3x1 foot cloth or 6x1 foot cloth for rokushaku tenugui), amigasa (straw hat), kaginawa (grappling hook), and donohi or takezutsu (charred cloth in bamboo/copper container as body warmer and fire starter).

    Pagodite and graphite must share a common weakness in that friction on the writing can damage the message. This means, that yes, while quite affordable, even today, I can't be sure that ninjas didn't carry a more permanent writing implement as a backup, for taking ongoing notes, for creating caches of information, or just things that you'd want something like indian ink to do that graphite or pagodite can't.

    You know what's odd? We had many of these tools in the Army, or at least variants of it. Also, growing up in the mountains living in the middle of nowhere, we had other tools also similar to these. Almost like the Ninja were basing these essential tools off of experience.....

      yeah and i think the firestarter was probably used for making campfires more than anything else, just like in the army and when hiking in the mountains.

    All the tools were light firstly great for long trips, I believe the downside would be if any experienced soldier caught someone in imperial Japan with tools like this, it would have raised some suspicion because of the general assumption that they may have been used mostly by Ninjas or should we assume this is what people carried everyday ?

      The one thing in here that would be hard to explain, is the grappling hook. Everything else could be a perfectly reasonable thing for a traveler to carry with them, especially when you consider that the saw was meant to be hidden. Unless of course, it was common for Edo-period Japanese travelers to carry grappling hooks for crossing rivers, which is unlikely but possible.
