Ninja related manga and anime are very popular and famous, I am a big fan of Naruto myself. But in these stories, they sometimes call themselves “shinobi” as well.

How are ninja and shinobi different?

So today, I will first briefly explain the history of ninja, and then talk about the differences between ninja and shinobi. At the end of the video, I will talk a little about the women ninjas, “kunoichi” as well.

However please understand that there are many many studies and theories about ninjas, and some of them suggest the complete opposite of what I will introduce today.
If you know about other theories or if there is anything I have left out, please share with me in the comments below!
