Plot[edit]
The series plot started rather simply: Princess Asrial was sent to Earth to find Jeremy Feeple and marry him, an act that was described as required to ensure that their enemies do not lay claim to the planet. Since Earth was a non-aligned world, anyone could claim it, and the Salusians were desperate to keep it from being used against them. Ichi went to America to marry Jeremy as well, although her reasons for the trip were different, in order to become leader of her clan, her grandfather informed her that she had to marry the boy, the reason behind this is that Jeremy's mother was raised by this grandfather, and they wanted to be blood related.
Unfortunately, shortly after landing, Asrial, Ichi, and Jeremy Feeple get caught up in a whirlwind of comic mischief, fighting, and plots by local villains to take over the planet. The comic often features parody versions of other comics or television shows, usually Japanese, but occasionally European or American, such as Kamen Rider, Power Rangers, Ultraman, Harry Potter, Superman, The Powerpuff Girls, Terminator, Robocop, Ninja Gaiden, Transformers, Fist of the North Star, and the Gundam series.
Later the series does a time skip and focus on Jeremy's little brother, Ricky Feeple (who was mostly a minor character in the first series), as he enters high school himself, gaining new friends and soon coming into conflict with a rival ninja clan known as Shidoshi who set their sights on destroying him. While the comic still retained its comedic tones, it also ventured into darker territory and has a bit more drama thrown in than the original NHS.

![]() Publication history[edit]
NHS started out as a miniseries that mainly parodied famous anime and manga conventions (Urusei Yatsura appears to be the main influence, although the title 'Ninja High School' was commonly used in the 1980s to refer to the series Sasuga no Sarutobi, which was actually about a high school for ninja students). The story centers on Jeremy Feeple, an ordinary student at Quagmire High, living an ordinary life. Shortly into the story, a beautiful female ninja named Itchy Koo (real name Ichikun Ichinohei) and an alien princess named Asrial appear. The earlier stories focus on the girls' comedic attempts to marry this seemingly plain, ordinary high school boy.
As the series progressed, more backstory was given to the main characters, and a rather large and unwieldy cast was created. Most of the cast are manga archetypes of varying degrees. The book originally featured mostly slapstick humor, but later story arcs became more serious, delving into murder, drugs, and other more mature subjects.
While not reaching great heights in critical or financial success, Ninja High School is one of few successful, long running manga-styled comics produced in America. It has contributed greatly to their continuing saturation of the American comics market.
The background was later reground and re-presented. Antarctic published a twelve-issue Volume 2 miniseries focusing on Jeremy's younger brother, Ricky. Issue #74 of the original series closed off the Jeremy storylines, and from issue #75, the Volume 2 cast were carried over to populate the ongoing series (though there are still ninja princesses, alien girls, and associated weirdness to be encountered on a daily basis).
From #101 to #126, the comic was written and drawn by Katie Bair (with assists from Robby Bevard), had a title change (shortened) to just 'NHS', returned to black and white, and the setting changes to Hawaii. The only major character who carries over from the previous cast is Yumei Katana. This run was later collected into individual volumes under the new title, Ninja High School: Hawaii.
From #127 to #129, the comic was cooperatively developed by Fred Perry and Ben Dunn to transition from the Hawaii storyline back to the Quagmire location. The focus returned to the Volume 2 cast.
In #130, Ricky Feeple returns to the spotlight, in what, after the events of the second 'Quagmire US' miniseries, may or may not be an alternate timeline. From here the version is dubbed Shidoshi by Antarctic Press to separate it from the original series.
It was announced that the Shidoshi series will close out and a new version of NHS was being planned focusing on a new batch of characters.
