Why Ninjutsu?

It seems to me that people have set aside Ninjutsu as the "Ultimate Martial Art" in various forums it has recieved the highest votes and has had the general consensus as the best.

It isn't totally taken to pieces like TKD, it isn't as seemingly and I said seemingly weak as Aikido. It recieves no criticism and is often treated with a bit of awe by everyone.

What sets Ninjutsu out from other martial arts for you? I haven't seen much, but it seems a little bit like, Aikido or Judo mixed with some fancy sword stuff.



If you could explain what sets this martial art from all the rest and maybe post a video of some sparring or training that'd be great.

Or if you stand on the opposite end and say that this is a non-applicable martial art that will end with you dying if you tried it in a certain street scenario, why and what is in your opinion the better art.

Or even if you stand on the neutral side, why does this martial art have the mystique it has and the supposed (and this is a joke) power of a ninja.

Or any other thing for that matter, as long as it is Ninjutsu related.
