Ninjitsu was a robot entered by Team Katana for Extreme Warriors: Season 2 and Nickelodeon Robot Wars. It was fully invertible, powered by wheelchair motors, and had a square spinning disc weapon. It was named after Ninjitsu, also known as ninpō, a Japanese collection of disciplines for martial arts, strategy and espionage, most often known for its association with Ninjas.
In keeping with the theme, the team name, and the name of their previous entrant Shuriken, were based on Japanese weapons.
Robot History
Season 2
Buzz and Ninjitsu tangled together.
Ninjitsu competed in the Robot Rebellion and its first round battle was against Buzz. The fight was done twice because Buzz's flipper was caught on Ninjitsu and both bots ended up in the pit at the same time. When the fight began, after a few minutes in the bout, Buzz broke down and lost the bout. Ninjitsu later lost in Round 2 on a judges' decision against Snookums because Ninjitsu's weapon stopped working.
Nickelodeon
Ninjitsu fought in the Nickelodeon United States Championship alongside Tyranabot, Probophobia and Phantasm. In the first round, it faced Tyranabot. It managed to tear up bits of its tail with its spinning frame, but at the end, it was immobilized and counted out. Dead Metal sawed through Ninjitsu several times before placing it onto the Floor Flipper which sent it flying. Dead Metal then slammed Ninjitsu into the Pit. Ninjitsu then faced Phantasm in the Third Place Playoff. Ninjitsu proceeded to cut up Phantasm's frame while the weaponless Phantasm could merely ram. Soon, Phantasm was destroyed and finished off by the house robots, floor flipper and Drop Zone, making Ninjitsu the winner of the Playoff.
Ninjitsu then faced Destructive Criticism in a "Battle of the Spinners" Grudge Match. At the start, both blades colided with Ninjitsu being the more aggressive. After a few hits, Ninjitsu knocked a weapon chain off of Destructive Criticism before knocking their own chain off. The fight went to a judges' decision in favor of Ninjitsu.
