This is strange. It's almost as if there was some popular children's entertainment involving teenagers and ninjas that they were co-opting to make martial arts seem more appealing.
I wouldn't be surprised judging from what i just watched. Also WTF is with the Asian kid? Why does the ancient teenage ninja god of ninja nothing manifest as a white guy, yet in his "regular" form hes a little Asian boy? Thats like a dog having human girlfriends.
