Ninja High School Classic #1
This collection reprints early issues of the long-running indie manga-influenced series Ninja High School, originally published by Eidalon. It follows the adventures of a young man caught between alien ninja clans and high school life, blending comedy, action, and sci-fi elements. The volume is part of the Ninja High School Classic line, which aims to present the series' formative stories in a collected format.
In "Die unwillige Prinzessin," Leeanna's relentless pursuit of Jeremy takes a dangerous turn as she maneuvers Earth toward the Zardon Empire, while the Salusian Hitch Squad and Hitomi's Girl Commandos launch separate resistance efforts. Written and illustrated by Ben Dunn, this 2003 issue from Eidalon blends high-stakes intrigue with dynamic action, all rendered in Dunn’s distinctive style, with the cover by Ben Dunn completing the striking package.
Prinzessin Asrial is all set for her diplomatic mission to Earth, but her enthusiasm is about as high as a gravity well. With a mix of martial arts flair and sci-fi absurdity, this short, sharp tale follows her as she navigates the quirks of interplanetary protocol—no spoilers, just laughs, leaping, and the occasional cameo from a certain feline and a certain cartoonish figure in a hat.
In "Der Tag davor," Jeremy, a teen martial arts student, grapples with a soccer injury that sends him home, where quiet moments spark memories of his missing father. The story quietly explores his thoughts with a blend of humor and heart, set against the familiar backdrop of school life and hidden tensions.
In "Eine neue Schülerin an der Quarmire High," Ichi-Kun Ichinohei and Princess Asrial arrive at Quagmire High with one goal: marrying Jeremy Feeple. With martial arts flair and sci-fi twists, their unexpected rivalry sets the stage for a chaotic, hilarious clash of ambitions.
In "Der Wettkampf," Professor Steamhead stages a high-stakes contest to decide whether Asrial or Ichi can marry Jeremy, turning the classroom into a battleground of nerves and martial arts. When Lendo hijacks the event, replacing the professor and Jeremy with lifelike robots, the challenge takes a chaotic, mechanical turn—leaving the outcome uncertain and the stakes higher than ever.
In "Sein oder nicht sein," Uncle Yamasan stirs the pot by nudging Asrial to set Ichi-kun up with Sammi, all in a bid to rattle Lendo—only to send the day spiraling when Lendo intervenes, forcing a confrontation that brings Sammi’s hidden truth into the open.
In "Bohnen, Dampf & Automobile (Teil 2)," Leeanna remains locked in her relentless pursuit of Jeremy, determined to steer Earth toward the Zardon Empire, as the Salusian Hitch Squad and Hitomi's Girl Commandos launch separate, daring resistance operations. The story blends high-stakes sci-fi intrigue with the series’ signature humor and martial arts flair, all set against a backdrop of escalating tension and chaotic teamwork.
