This book tries to star!! (Ninja that is), September 13, 2000
This review is from: Ninja Star: Art of Shuriken Jutsu (Paperback)
Well this is not a bad book just not a brilliant book. Presented to you is large text and hand drawn pictures, but on the other hand it is easy to read and has a lot of general information about the art of Shurikenjutsu.Historical backgrounds of Ninja and Samurai are explored. Technically stances, grips and throws are shown along with warm-up methods and building targets (including a moving one). Let me just say that if you are after a better book then look at anything by Hayes or Hatsumi but by buying this book you could do worse.

Toda has no knowledge of ninjutsu, January 30, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Ninja Star: Art of Shuriken Jutsu (Paperback)
Toda has written several ninja-books to cash in on it but if you are interested in learning something, look elsewhere. Toda has no connections to any real ninja schools (unless he has enrolled...)
