NINJA AKASAKA: Ninja Restaurant in Japan







It's a nice theme restaurant located in Akasaka, Tokyo. This restaurant is designed as a ninja house, and there are interesting hidden tricks in the building. Food and drinks are served by "ninja" who also perform magics for customers. The food are based on Japanese cuisine and also are creative. It's recommended to make a reservation.



I'd like to visit this awesome Ninja Themed Restaurant!

Yakuza 4 Announced, Yakuza 3 Coming to US Soon



Yakuza 4 known as Ryu ga Gotoku 4: Densetsu wo Tsugumono (Yakuza 4: Heir to the Legend) in Japan has been announced.

As with the other numbered entries, Yakuza 4 will be taking place in modern Japan, this time in the Tokyo district of Kamiyacho. It will star a detective named Masayoshi Tanimura, and a Yakuza member named Takeshi Kido.

Back in May, we mentioned that auditions for Yakuza 4 were underway, and as usual Sega will be featuring some top flight Japanese talent, with Tanimura and Kido be voiced by Hiroki Narimiya and Kenta Kiritani respectively. Both are stage and film veterans, with Narimiya's haircut (called the Narimiya Cut) being all the rage amongst Japanese teens.

The game will use new motion capture technology in order to get not only the actors voices but also their movements mapped perfectly into their corresponding character in the game.


Here are some of the girls from Yakuza 4:


Yakuza 3 aka Ryu ga Gotoku 3 is reported to be coming to the US and Europe soon. Can't wait!

Secrets of the Ninja



Learn about the secrets of the Ninja in this free online book by Ashida Kim.

Making war is not hard, keeping the peace is hard. That is why the Ninja, who value peace and harmony above all else, have gone to such great lengths over many centuries to canonize and preserve these methods. And why, because it is so simple, the techniques have often been turned to revenge or used to raise and army quickly. When there is no justice, the Ninja appear. They are not “called to action” by anyone. They are just ordinary people in extraordinary situations. They need not have a “clan” or “credentials” or even a great deal of training. They only need the Will.

The Ninja do what must be done, then it is forgotten. Princes and kings may gain some
temporary advantage through Force. But, the only lasting accomplishments are achieved
through Love.

This is the true lesson of Ninjitsu
