How "Ninja" is Murasaki from Dragonball!? - Which Ninja

[@GaijinGoombah]

The first 1000 people to use the link in my description will get a free trial of Skillshare Premium Membership: skl.sh/gaijingoombahmedia01211 I'M SO HAPPY WE GOT TO COVER MURASAKI FINALLY! Though with everything happening with Shueisha, this might be the last time I can cover Dragonball, One Piece, Naruto, etc...

[@ShinKyuubi]

Looking forward to "How ninja are the Hunters from Monster Hunter Rise"..cause I'm sure it'll be there, I found insects used as ten'nenbishi (natural caltrops) so there's a point already on top of their use of nature..I'd call it that they'd be the over the top style ninja but they have some decent roots to work with.

[@carabe197]

Not sure if it was just comedy bit of yours, but its only natural that serious moment is contrasted with comedy, especially considering how much more serious the fight follows Murasakis defeat: Buyon, monster that almost defeats and eats Goku.

He's hiding the shuriken in different places around his territory, that's kinda the advantage of forcing people through his room, he can set traps and hide spare weapons around the area to strike with. Goku's whole schtick is that he brings out the worst in these otherwise indomitable and terrifying figures by being a kid who is simply unaffected by them, like 99% of the planet would die instantly at the ninjas hand, 1% would fight him equally, and then there's Goku, half of your mushroom head's issues can be summed up with "he'd do better if it wasn't against Goku".

[@TheSpencermacdougall]

@@jeremytung1632 the red ribbon army were the villens from the second main arc of dragon ball. Like the name suggests, they were a army who's symbol was a red ribbon (more like a bowtie,which is always cool for obvious reasons). Dr, gero, the creator of the androids and cell was a member of the RR army, and he hates Goku because he wiped out the RR army as a child. (Which possibly resulted in his son dying, but I'm not sure if that's canon)

[@Ichiyama22]

I wouldn't even say the RR Army were relevant in the android saga. They were more of a decorative piece in Gero's ultimately unrelated revenge plot. He didn't want to revive the Army, he just wanted his son's killer dead.

[@LunaP1]

Same. Even I knew this guy was a joke.😂

[@Punaparta]

@@Ichiyama22 That's not true, actually. The idea that Gero's son was killed by Goku during the Red Ribbon HQ raid is a bit of fanon that was popularised in a big way by DBZ Abridged. In fact, Adrian canonically died in some RRA operation that had nothing to do with Goku. Gero's primary motivation during the Android Saga was to avenge the RRA, not his son.

[@VerdantRange]

Eh, part of this is different cultural standards. When it was released in Japan, it was considered a kids show. Hell, this is part of the reason why some of the newer re-releases of Dragon Ball stuff has been censored compared to the original, such as removing Truck flipping someone off or Goku getting a gory hole blown through him. The intended market is children in Japan and standards have changed.

It seems to me like Murasaki was trained as a ninja, but was eventually kicked out/fled because of his vices. He never refined his techniques, but knows the basics.

[@lexsamreeth8724]

This is a very good point. There is solid evidence that he has the intellectual knowledge of the assorted techniques of the ninja, with distractions, hiding techniques, and psychological warfare. His problem is that although he INTELLECTUALLY knows the techniques, he doesn't PRACTICALLY know them. It's like the difference between memorizing medical textbooks and actually practicing medicine as a doctor. You might be able to rattle off all the information correctly, but put one of these armchair physicians in a medical emergency, and you'll be lucky if they don't wind up making things worse. In this case, Murasaki's lack of practical knowledge leads him to constantly letting his emotions get the better of him, whether it's his addiction to naughty magazines, his pride, or his inability to handle unexpected complications.

I think most people forgot that Goku's stamina had been massively upgraded in the previous arc. A 98kg (216 lb) training shell on his back over the course of several months, which was doubled for the last two weeks of the training. It might have looked like a joke, but it might have actually highly improved his odds.

[@bernhardreiter3406]

The main problem with Murasaki isnt what he does, but WHEN he is. Nearly every fight in the RR-ark is nothing more than a big joke. "Powerful" enemy challenges Goku. Underestimate him, because hes a kid. They do some goofy stuff in the fight. they get defeated. If he appeared 50 to 100 episodes later he would be a good enemy. No real challenge to Goku of course, but at least not a clownlike Wannabe like this.

In terms of training and techniques, he is a pretty good ninja... he's just a massive idiot, and it breaks his execution of said training.

[@4ncientGu150]

Hey Goomba, you should do a video covering the new Revenant Hunters in Destiny 2 for Which Ninja. Their new stuff is honestly and truly, actually pretty ninja. They have two charges of a melee attack that slows (and freezes slowed) enemies. It doesn't do a lot of damage, but it bounces around and spreads the status effect a lot, making it useful for preventing enemies from following you if you need to retreat and heal, or open them up for you to hit them with something hard. The grenade shown for Hunters draws enemies in from a pretty decent range, and lingers, slowing enemies until they're frozen solid. Its most useful trait though, is in how long it lingers. You can use it at a chokepoint to hold territory for yourself, or throw it at a boss to repeatedly freeze them. The super is to throw two Kamas, one named Silence, the other Squall. One freezes a large area, the other makes a localized storm that slowly freezes enemies while it keeps damaging them with cold, cutting winds. Lastly, there's the two aspects, one gives a dive attack thats used from up high to attack and instantly shatter frozen enemies. People will use it to freeze and shatter enemies, sometimes aggressively, sometimes while camping. The second causes your dodge to slow enemies around you while you can also use your dodge to recharge your melee. And finally there's the exotic, Mask of Barris. It is literally you, wearing the enemies face. It makes your dodge super fast, while also cloaking you while you use it. It also minorly boosts arc damage, so most people pair it with a arc shotgun or sword, and use it to zip up to a enemy from behind, and quickly put them down. Either that or its a easy escape button.

[@KlausiboyZ]

Now, I get that there are lot's of times where Murasaki was straight up antithesis of Ninja (Like the porn stash and failing in hiding himself with the flag). But I don't think that makes him a bad REPRESENTATION of ninja in media. Instead he's a representation of a bad ninja. Which I think is an important distinction. All the stuff he does is usually related to ninja themes. It's kinda hard to explain my point, but to someone like me, who was a kid who didn't know anything about ninja culture, I still feel like I managed to learn about ninja's from Murasaki's screw ups. Sure, he failed at hiding under the fake rock and he jumped out to retrieve his ero picture, but that portrays him as a failing ninja, and by contrast I can imagine a good ninja doing the opposite. I guess my point is he is a good representation of a bad ninja, where many ninja are a complete misrepresentation (Like Naruto hitting people with magic spiral balls). I think Murasaki is a good compromise of having a ninja while still sticking to the gag-nature of early dragon ball. At least that's my opinion. Oh, and the starting argument of Murasaki's introduction being over-done with super speed and death shuriken, doesn't that actually fit ninja well? Not the speed or the shuriken, but the "legend" about him. I thought part of being ninja was to use tricks and illusions to make you seem more lethal and mysterious than you were. The comical inadequacy that follows just goes to show that Murasashi must have been good at deceiving people who know about him into thinking he is more dangerous than he actually is

[@johnny_boi5456]

[@loganthomas5736]

Hey Gaijin, I loved your Greninja video, and I have an idea for another Pokémon Which Ninja. Instead of a specific Pokémon though, it's a type in general. Poison Type. The reason I say that is that they're one of the fragile types out there, but the the general strategy for most of them is to go in, Poison the target, and either die, or get out. Not to mention the first 2 poison specialists are the Fuschia City Gym Leaders Koga and his daughter Janine, with their gym in the anime acting like a typical ninja house. Plus, a lot of poison type Pokémon are based on animals that stereotypical ninjas would use, such as insects, arthropods, and snakes. Examples are Venomoth, Drapion, Arbok, & Seviper. I could actually make a whole breakdown, but I'll stop now.
