In this heartfelt coming-of-age adventure, we follow the journey of three sibling ninjas: Rocky, a 13-year-old aspiring martial artist; Colt, an impulsive 12-year-old; and Tum-Tum, a clever 7-year-old grappling with the complexities of growing up. Guided by their wise grandfather, Mori Shintaro, who was once a champion in a prestigious martial arts tournament fifty years ago, they strive to master their ninja skills.
