Futo is not the fastest ninja in the village, by any standard. During his training, it became obvious that Futo was never going to be particularly proficient with the sword. He has shown great promise in his raw strength however.

Futo does not like it when people make fun of him for having a hammer instead of a sword. His great heart should also not be underestimated.

Weapon: Hammer

Special Ability: Futo's special attack is the Futo Ball roll where he crunches up like a ball and rolls into enemies. It's extremely effective.

Trivia: Futo loves apples. The red ones are his personal favorites and during apple picking season, Futo is not allowed into the apple fields because he tends to eat them all.

Learn more about Mini Ninjas™ at the official webpage: www.minininjas.com.

Character: Shun
Shun is a living contradiction. He's the most tense of all the Mini Ninjas but oddly, he still maintains the unique ninja skill of calming himself to utter silence when the situation requires it. Shun is the stealthiest of all the Mini Ninjas.

Weapon: Bow
Special Ability: Shun's special attack enables him to tie a lit explosive to the shaft of one of his arrows. He can then fire this special projectile across long distances to damage, or simply scare, his enemies with the explosion.

Trivia: Shun has been known to sit completely still for two days straight in order to hit a target perfectly.

Kunoichi is the younger and less mature of the girls. She looks up to Suzume like a big sister and adores Hiro. She is very acrobatic and uses her Naginata (spear) as a prop in her agile moves Kunoichi is very quiet, doesn't reveal much about herself, and is a bit of a loner.



Weapon: Naginata (spear)

Special Ability: Kunoichi, anticipating a rush of enemies coming her way, will spin her Naginata above her head - drawing upon the magical energies infused within the weapon - then unleash a spinning helicopter attack upon her foes.

Trivia: Kunoichi enjoys the rigorous training of the life as a Mini Ninja. It fits well with her acrobatic nature.
