Ninja Vs Samurai - 04-27-2009, 09:47 PM

A Ninja (忍者 ,ninja?) is a warrior specially trained in a variety of unorthodox arts of war. These include assassination, illusion, espionage, and various martial arts.The role of the ninja may have included sabotage, espionage, scouting and assassination as a method of destabilization or to cause social chaos. Such actions may have taken place at the service of a feudal lord (daimyo, shogun), or other entity waging guerrilla warfare.


A Samurai who is more respected as a warrior but deal more with intellectual issues.
Most samurai were bound by a code of honor and were expected to set an example for those below them. A notable part of their code is seppuku (切腹 ,seppuku?), which allowed a disgraced samurai to regain his honor by passing into death, where samurai were still beholden to social rules.

Which do you prefer?

From the sky, To the ground
Rain is falling all around
Thunder rain and wind
A song of storms begins

Play a song, A melody
Then everybody will see
The hero of time
Has come

But samurai was more respectful and they were more like the protectors of the nation.

I read this book by James Clavell (Shogun): It deals with a Feudal war in the 1600 and the part that thrilled me most was when ninjas were sent to assassinate a samurai.It was crazy.
