'''Ninja High School''' is a long-running [[/a/|mangaesque]] [[Urban Fantasy]] rom-com comic created, written, and illustrated by Ben Dunn. Debuting in 1987, it was originally intended to be a parodic mini-series, but took off like wildfire in the [[/co/]] underground and became a long-running series; the first "volume" ran continuously until November 2002 ('''15 years''' of unbroken publishing!), and the series has seen multiple attempts at continuations, spin-offs and revivals up until 2020.

==Story==
In the quiet American Midwest town of Quagmire, Jeremy Feeple is an average high school student. And then one day two girls show up and start fighting for his hand in marriage; the Japanese ninja Ichikun "Itchy Koo" Ichinohei and the alien princes Asrial, a [[furry|hot alien skunkwoman]] with super strength in disguise as a skimpily clad blonde human. And that's when Jeremy starts to learn that Quagmire isn't so ordinary after all, as he gets caught up in ancient ninja clan feuds, an ongoing rivalry between local mad scientists, localized alien invasions, and other weirdness.

Originally a slapstick romcom, the series eventually matured and took on more serious tones, examining things like murder, drugs and homosexuality. [[/a/]] [[grognard]]s will note a distinct resemblance to Urusei Yatsura, with a dash of Ranma 1/2, in addition to a massive cascade of references to other anime of the time period.
