Episode 1 Recap
The protagonist, Ittoki, a middle school student, spots a ninja as he looks out the window of his class. Kousetsu watches him as he solves a math problem on the board correctly.
Kousetsu ensures he doesn’t miss his lessons. At his gymnastics lessons, his trainer asks him if he can consider pursuing this at a higher level. As he rushes to reach class, we can see that he’s particularly skilled when it comes to jumping and running, but he ends up leading a truck to crash.
In a grocery store, we see Tokisada, Ittoki’s uncle, dealing with a customer rather casually and getting criticized for it. His manager, Ittoki’s mom, steps up instead. He’s asked to pick Ittoki up.
He tells him about the accident, and thankfully there were no injuries. We also discover that his father passed away.
He asks his mom if he could quit a few lessons, but she refuses. Kousetsu supervises him in the morning too.
He receives a love letter from Satomi Tsubaki. He blushes. She asks him out.
His mom finds out and is happily inquisitive at first but refuses since he doesn’t know her well.
He goes to her place for the date. She takes her clothes off and wants to get intimate with him, but he refuses to since they just met. He wonders if it’s a prank, and when he looks under her bed, he’s shocked to discover three assassins.
The assassins, along with Tsubaki, try to attack him, and Kousetsu saves him and asks him to run away. He gets inside a car and meets Ms. Reiha and Mr. Kozo.
The assassins chase behind their car. He wakes up to see them fighting, and is asked to run away again where there’s a lot of people. He reaches an empty alley, and the area faces an electricity outage.
An officer finds him but is killed by the assassin. Ittoki is surrounded. His uncle arrives, and one of the assassins calls him the “Demi-god”. The officer who was killed is alive and was only pretending to be dead. His uncle defeats the assassins quickly and takes Ittoki to his family home.
The family chief, his mom, tells him to call her chief. She tells him they are the Shinobi of the Iga village. She tells him that the ninja who came into being a few hundred years ago live to this day by changing their forms and presenting a fake identity to others.
There are a few ninjas who blend well into society. She tells him they must follow strict rules in order to prevent village quarrels.
She tells him the Koga village has been trying to upset that balance. The Koga ninja clan is the most powerful and is scheming to take over Iga village.
The ones that attacked him were from that clan, and the reason is because Ittoki is the 19th Iga Ninja village’s successor. They all bow to him, and his mom tells him to become a ninja.
In the post-credits, the Koga clan chief, Kidou, is saluted. It is revealed that the previous chief, Kishinmaru, is being mourned, and those who killed him will pay for it – the Iga ninjas.
