Tokyo Shinobi Squad

Tokyo Shinobi Squad

A manga about an elite shinobi squad that tackles jobs in the crime-ridden city of Tokyo in the year 2049.

We’ve discussed this show on an older episode.

This manga debuted in Weekly Shonen Jump and actually survived for almost twice the amount of chapters of Bone Collection. A surprise considering the strange premise of super globalization turning Tokyo into a horrible future city. Not sure what writer Yuki Tanaka was going for with the setting but their choice of focusing on shinobi is ballsy considering Naruto still holds a stronghold over ninja content. I wasn’t particularly impressed with Kento Matsuura‘s art here either. Matsuura is currently drawing Phantom Seer which is much more visual impressive, though I have my doubts about it lasting any longer than Tokyo Shinobi Squad did. You can read this over on Manga Plus while it’s still up.
