Ninja Senki/Enemies

Each enemy has a description describing behaviors and attacks, they also have the amount of shurikens are required to be defeated as well as the amount of points you receive after they are defeated. Some enemies also have a "More Info" section with a link to their Wikipedia page that will provide more information on their Japanese folklore.

Enemies

Enemies are found in every stage and they will try to stop you from reaching the end of the game.

Aobozu

These guys look like Yadokai but just blue. They charge up to shoot out three energy balls, going diagonally up, forward, and diagonally down. The hard part is you can't attack them while they are charging up, so you must attack while they are already attacking.

• Defeat: 2 Shuriken
• Points: 25

Aohannya

These are the blue counterpart of Hannya. They come at you pretty slow, but watch out they are able to shoot out projectiles.

• Defeat: 3 Shuriken
• Points: 15
• More Info: Hannya

Ashigaru

This gunner is usually in a platform higher than the one you might be on and shoots out 3 balls at the same time that drop down. Each one of the balls are shot at different distances, so be careful and watch out where they land.

• Defeat: 3 Shuriken
• Points: 15

Hannya

Believe it or not, this is a mask that represents a jealous female. They move at an average speed but they tend to get really annoying, just clear them out and be on your way.

• Defeat: 2 Shuriken
• Points: 10
• More Info: Hannya

Hitodama

This might be a little purple flame, but it is actually a soul of a recently deceased person. Take caution because when its floating it drops off other little flames onto the floor.

• Defeat: 3 Shuriken
• Points: 10
• More Info: Hitodama

Kaeru

You can't trust these little pink frogs with their little innocent faces. They'll jump at you and you'll receive damage, so do what you do best and blow it up into little bloody pieces.

• Defeat: 1 Shuriken
• Points: 5

Kage

These are shadow ninjas that just keep on coming out and are only found fighting alongside with Kage.

• Defeat: 1 Shuriken
• Points: 1

Kappa

These water imps are tricky little fellows. When attacked they retreat into their shells, so be sure to always attack when they are not looking.

• Defeat: 3 Shuriken
• Points: 20
• More Info: Kappa

Kiira

This yellow ninja might not move out of place, but he tosses shuriken at you!... one at a time. Be sure to attack when he isn't throwing them at you.

• Defeat: 4 Shuriken
• Points: 15

MegaHannya

At double the size of the original Hannya. Nothing new with this enemy only that it is more annoying than the original.

• Defeat: 4 Shuriken
• Points: 15
• More Info: Hannya

MegaMushi

Just as the regular evil red ninja Mushi, this giant counterpart isn't much of a challenge either and has the same movement patterns.

• Defeat: 3 Shuriken
• Points: 10

Midori

He stays in place and waits for you to approach him and then he strikes. He leaps up and throws a shuriken at your location.

• Defeat: 3 Shuriken
• Points: 15

Murasaki

This ninja is just having a good time, running and jumping, that is until you come to end his fun. Yep, that's all this ninja does, runs and jumps.

• Defeat: 2 Shuriken
• Points: 10

Mushi

These red ninjas are the weakest type of ninja and don't stand a chance. They walk back and forth on their platform and... well that's all they do. No trouble at all.

• Defeat: 1 Shuriken
• Points: 5

Oni

Alright this guy looks tough and might be for some. He keeps on jumping around trying to get you, but all you have to do is keep on moving, go under it, and attack.

• Defeat:
• Points: 50
• More Info: Oni

Ronin

This cool guy thinks he's all that just because your attacks don't affect him, but too bad for him he has a weak spot on his back.

• Defeat: 3 Shuriken
• Points: 15

Saru

Don't be fooled by the cute monkey face because it will just take one look at you and start tossing nuts (or feces?) at you.

• Defeat: 2 Shuriken
• Points: 10

Takenoko

If bamboo shoots are your enemy, then you know you have a problem in your hands. They pop up from the ground and don't actually do anything, so they're easy enemies.

• Defeat: 2 Shuriken
• Points: 10
• More Info: Takenoko

Tengu

These big-nosed creatures fly out from bottomless pits and shoot out three projectiles beneath itself.

• Defeat: 4 Shuriken
• Points: 10

Yadokai

This dude shoots out a ball of energy or something that follows you around, but can be easily dodged. Keep a good eye because the ball might return and still keep on following you, so during this time you must defeat him.

• Defeat: 3 Shuriken
• Points: 20

Yurei

BOO! Scared you right? Well, this ghost shouldn't because he doesn't posses a threat. It floats and only moves forward, until it comes contact with a wall and turns around and keeps on going.
