Ninja
Three ordinary (i.e. not postgame collectible) Ninja Theets in Ninjutsu: The Art of Rapids in Princess Peach: Showtime!
Three Ninja Theets in Ninjutsu: The Art of Rapids
First appearance Princess Peach: Showtime! (2024)
Variant of Theet

A ninja is a subcategory of Theets in Princess Peach: Showtime!. They wear orange outfits with a belt and mouth-covering hood, a purple sweater underneath, and white shoes with golden tips.

In the main game, they only appear in Ninjutsu: The Art of Rapids and Ninjutsu: The Art of Flames, but in the post-game, they become a major collectible to search for in most of the levels, where Ninja Sparkla refers to them as his apprentices.

Maingame[edit]

Ninjutsu: The Art of Rapids[edit]

The stage takes place in a village where all but two of the local resident Theets are ninjas. After Peach has uncovered a nearby shortcut at the start of the stage, various ninjas accompany her through a part of the village, including one who must be used Sparkle on for him to move a stone head with telekinesis, eventually getting Peach into a secret cave.

After Peach has emerged from the cave and into the rest of the village the ninjas along the way give her advice and compliments as she chases a Sour Bunch member who have stolen a scroll.

In this stage, there is additionally an Elder who owns the "Elder's Manor", whose path is blocked by two Guards at the start of the level, necessitating the above events to reach the farthest right of his manor to save him, which is the only place he appears in the game.

Ninjutsu: The Art of Flames[edit]

Two ninjas ask Ninja Peach for help to reclaim a large castle with Peach proceeding to make her way through it, saving one caged ninja on her way to the revolving door terrace.

One ninja follows her onto the higher rooftops and then stays behind as the roofs begin to be bombed. Two ninjas await her on the top floor with one of them handing her a scroll to turn a nearby cogwheel into a large dragon soaring through the topmost sections of the castle.

The Case of the Missing Mural[edit]

Although they do not appear in the level in-person during the maingame, one of the museum exhibits in The Case of the Missing Mural is a four-character vertical green scroll whose Stella's interpretation of the exhibit description is that the scroll's characters, which resemble those from the first two Ninja Peach stages and of the stone statue ninja in The Art of Rapids, "can only be understood by ninja".

The scroll also resembles the scrolls from the first two Ninja Peach levels, but is green instead of orange.

Quotes[edit]

  • "Could you be the ninja of legend?" (Ninjutsu: The Art of Rapids)

Postgame[edit]

After It's Showtime, Grape!, various Ninja Theets show up in levels in wall disguises in order for Princess Peach to try to find them. There are three Ninjas in regular stages on 1F through 5F and one Ninja in BF stages. Ninja Sparkla in 1F of Sparkle Theater asks Peach how many Ninjas she has found but does not keep a counter on how many that are found.

If a Ninja has been found in a level, he will say "You found me!" and vanish in a cloud. The Ninja will show up again at the same spot if the level is played again at a later time but will not count towards the counter.

Finding all 70 hidden Ninjas in the game allows Peach to talk to the Ninja Sparkla and obtain the secret dress.

Quote[edit]

  • "You found me!"
