I trained under the instruction of Mr Wayne L Roy the founder of traditional Ninjutsu in Australia & New Zealand Mr Roy was taught by Hatsumi sensai Mr Roys Schools are the Best I've ever seen & are second to none,..
Wow... he's so young in this video! I know he's even better as a ninja in his older years, but how great of an honor would it have been to be able to spar with this man?
これは懐かしい！ When I was a little boy, I watched this proglam in the TV. The end of Ninja animation program, he introduced and explained Ninjutu for us. Of course I did'nt know who is he, I was a only little boy. It about 40years ago.
@ameriskin74 That book was actually compiled and written by Stephen K. Hayes, although there are parts in there that are written by Hatsumi-soke. If you know about historical ninjutsu, you can probably figure out which parts though.
"EVERY EPISODE" or not, I don't remenber, it was over 40 years ago, I was only 5 or 6 year, my memories are not sure. But it is sure that this program was Shōnen Ninja Kaze no Fujimaru (少年忍者風のフジ丸 "Fujimaru of the Wind") In the program Ninjas were described like Super man. Anyway, we Japanese boys & girls all enjoyed the program in those days.
hatsumi so young!!!!! A great man and an even greater ninja.....graças a si.. esto nas artes marcias...tb.. pratique taijutsu...sou portuges...........ovar.
Hahaha thank you so much for your reply! I understand about the fuzzy memories, childhood is extremely far out! ;) But just to be clear- Hatsumi spoke to the audience in more than just the one episode, it was a regular or at least occasional feature of Fujimaru? That's great we now know the name of the program! Hopefully it can be released to the general public.... Thanks again! K
Some guys may be misunderstanding what this is. This "Ninjutsu Sen'ichiya" was a part of Kaze no Fujimaru, it's a cartoon. The audience she meant were kids. There is another video with the cartoon. watch?v=nFSyfVmoigg
Never have seen this although I quit training physically after 2001. Thanks for sharing...now I have to forward it to my contact in Japan to see if it was ok to even have posted this. lol.
Woah, so you're saying that Hatsumi Massaki used to do a little three-minute thing with this girl EVERY EPISODE of some ninja cartoon? Was the cartoon called Shōnen Ninja Kaze no Fujimaru (少年忍者風のフジ丸 "Fujimaru of the Wind")? Everyone in the Bujinkan needs this cartoon! who doesn't want to learn with a cartoon?All the best to you, sir!
At first he said "fudo muno" but when she asked about the finger position she hold, he answered "fudo mugo". Is that a ninja trick, then it's really godd cause I got very confused now, "fudo muno" or "fudo mugo"??? :s
Not true, according to According to the historian Stephen Turnbull and other historians, he was a real ninja from history, associated with the Sanada Ryu family, which had close connections to Togakure Ryu which explains why Hatsumi Soke would know about him.
I don't know if he didn't say that in the past, but historian Stephen Turnbull says Kirigakure Saizo is a FICTIONAL character in his latest book so you should check that out. What you're talking about comes from Sanada Juyushi, twentieth century story books based on the Sanada Sandaiki, which is an older story but still fictitious.
The Sanada family were real, not fictitious. Yes, there are fictional stories written about the family, but they were actual ninjas also. It's like saying that because there are stories of knights fighting dragons means there were not actually knights because we know dragons are fictitious. And the more I've come to learn about Turnbull, the less I think he is a reliable source of history. We live and learn. But there are references to Kirigakure going back well beyond the 20th century. A lot of people want to show the Bujinkan is fake, but that's just not true and they have a lot to gain from saying it is fake. There is a book about to be published, The Hidden Lineage, that actually vindicates the lineage of Togakure Ryu through the Toda family.
Sean Askew named his book, already ; ) I'm not saying there weren't shinobi, just that to my knowledge Kirigakure was a fictional character If you can show me proof otherwise then please let me know where I can see it, and if it's legitimate I will spread that information. Turnbull. I suspect what you mean is that the more that Turnbull comes to contradict your position, the more you don't think he is reliable, which is a fallacy. Looks like you're a bujinkan sensei. I don't want you to stop being a bujinkan practitioner, but I will always pursue historical truth, no matter what.
Sorry, it just occurred to me that you're referencing the Sanada Sandaiki. That has a character which Kirigakure is based on but it's also all fictional. If you don't think it is you have been severely misled. I've also seen Mr. Askew sometimes referencing fictional works in his research too, obviously this is a serious problem within the NInja enthusiast community.
@godisgreat82ify First of all this is not magic, but that is besides the point. U can easily learn this art without the "magic aspects" of it. Infact most of its students don't or never learn the "magic" aspects. u have to extremely advanced to learn that, nor do they teach it anyone.
@kazeet456 buddy, if it were ninjas fighting the war for japan they would've won! but we're not like that. and it's more than just "flashing gang signs" like you said.
@godisgreat82ify the idea of magic in japan is completely different from the idea of magic in western countries, it's not really magic to them... it's more... like an over sensationalization of facts, like a metaphor kind of. get it?
@kazeet456 if you're going to be so material about it, look into quantum theory and how expectation preceeds outcome. soon, you will see there is a place for spirituality and magic, especially with repetition. "miracles" are real, it is a matter of true belief and understanding that there is more than this 3-dimensional, physical existance. .. and i hardly think that ww2 had anything to do with ninja, besides the occasional hire. [ all within the ninja's control, of course :) ]
In the old days the ninja was a mysterious and elite warrior, if you dress like a ninja today and carry around nunchuku & ninja stars you just look ridiculous. This is 2012 we have navy SEALs for that role now.
"I believe in an almighty god who created everything and everything, souls, demons, angels, a fiery hell for people who do wrong, and a wonderland for the well behaved, all because some man named jesus did some magic like tricks, but I don't believe in magic like tricks" What logic is that. Jesus could just be some random skilled telekinetic, or a guy who was from another religion who wanted to create their own. Jesus only proves there is more out there, he doesn't prove christianity.
@bdkelevra "look into quantum theory and how expectation preceeds outcome." uh what does that have to do with your schools claims to ninjutsu being fake... you surely aren't suggesting that your school operates on the quantum level,... which is the ONLY reasaon quantum physics would aplly... " soon, you will see there is a place for spirituality and magic" uh, no we won't as science has proven that spirituality and magic are both concepts created by our own primitive minds to explain things
In Japan, much ninjya is farmers. And they are low-class soldiers employed every war by samurai. It is ninjya to have gathered information in that. For ninjya, the most important duty is to escape from the enemy. For them, the battle with the enemy is duty failure. Such ninjya is incompetent. ninjutsu is farmer science and thief skill.
Real, authentic Ninjutsu! Eat your heart out, Antony Cummins!

She's so happy.
Are there more clips with Hatsumi on it?
Wonderful
Some guys may be misunderstanding what this is.
This "Ninjutsu Sen'ichiya" was a part of Kaze no Fujimaru, it's a cartoon.
The audience she meant were kids.
There is another video with the cartoon.

Woah, so you're saying that Hatsumi Massaki used to do a little three-minute thing with this girl EVERY EPISODE of some ninja cartoon?
Was the cartoon called Shōnen Ninja Kaze no Fujimaru (少年忍者風のフジ丸 "Fujimaru of the Wind")?

Sorry, but I was a little bit sarcastic about the subtitles. My apologies!
Sorry, but it was sarcastic, cause of the subtitles. My bad!
At first he said "fudo muno" but when she asked about the finger position she hold, he answered "fudo mugo". Is that a ninja trick, then it's really godd cause I got very confused now, "fudo muno" or "fudo mugo"??? :s
The amusing thing about this clip is that Kirigakure Saizo was a fictional character invented about 1911!
Not true, according to According to the historian Stephen Turnbull and other historians, he was a real ninja from history, associated with the Sanada Ryu family, which had close connections to Togakure Ryu which explains why Hatsumi Soke would know about him.

the way he sits
By their hairstyle and being black and white... I'd guesstimate that it's in the 60s.
Isnt it 34th master instead of 43rd
Natsumi lol they make it up as they go along
They say 34th in Japanese but whoever put the text up made a typo.
Hatsumi sensei must have been a lady killer back in the day :)
Ah, and I never have seen the Soke so youg xD

The translation sucks... Hatsumi Masaaki is the 34th soke
in american ninja 4, the ninja master is killed by joe.
what about it
Wow, he's so young in this video!
That woman is so cute too! "doron doron teeheehee"

after watching her i was master of the baters.....roflmao
ninjas are bad, i watched them killing people in the ninja assassin
In Japan, much ninjya is farmers.
And they are low-class soldiers employed every war by samurai.
It is ninjya to have gathered information in that.
For ninjya, the most important duty is to escape from the enemy.
For them, the battle with the enemy is duty failure.
Such ninjya is incompetent.
ninjutsu is farmer science and thief skill.
