Shinobi's hero, Hotsuma, might have done an impressive job of ridding the world of demons and monsters, but it seems they always come back. What's the point, eh?Wisely, Hotsuma is sitting it out in Nightshade, which is set after Shinobi. Instead, you take control of agile female ninja, Hibana, who's got all Hotsuma's moves and more.
