Though it might seem like Ninjas have always been an integral part of pop culture, they weren’t always so popular. To be honest, stuff like ninjas were actually sort of taboo in Western markets like Europe. It was only after the success of iconic franchises like Ninja Gaiden that these stealthy heroes saw an unprecedented surge in popularity and even today, it’s easy to see why this game is admired to such a degree. Set in a retro-futuristic version of 1988, this is the story of Ryu Hayabusa, a ninja on the violent path of avenging his father. Over the years, Ninja Gaiden has grown from a game into something of a phenomenon, and thus, we have decided to explore this franchise in this Marvelous Video. And what better place to start this journey than with an in-depth analysis of Ninja Gaiden’s protagonist, Ryu Hayabusa?
