2. > Professor Isoda said, “The book provides practical and realistic information on ninja. Recreating ninjutsu and tools can lead to the reproduction of ninja.”

   And so began the Great Ninja Age. [theme music plays]

3. This is so cool

4. Does it contain instructions on chopping down Chow?

5. It is probably not a coincidence that this book showed up in Koka (aka Koga), given that Iga and Koka were the two centers of historical ninja culture in Japan. Iga is a fun albeit off-the-beaten-path place to visit if you think ninja history is cool (or you just love beef. Iga beef is amazing).

6. Next day he was found dead and the text was never seen again.
