Otaku presented with the shinobi mission failure movies in sengoku jidai war game Shogun 2: Total War can’t help but comment on the high levels of moe exhibited by blundering ninja failing to execute their duties…
The video is filled with adorable dojikko ninja:
The actual game is very good, although Sega quality shines through in some spots, such as with poor graphical performance and support for more recent DirectX 11 cards left for an upcoming patch, dubious “multicore” support (there is some suspicion that the developer’s terse claim that it “supports” multicore CPUs actually only means it will run on multicore chips), and AI which cheats outrageously.

For true moe, imagine the ninja that gets stuck in the hole as Rihoko from Amagami.
I'm confused... Does "Moe" now mean "Hilarious"?
This made my morning. A good laugh to start the day off with.
I totally agree with you .
Don't worry, you were always confused on the meaning of "moe."
And I gave them proper training too!
That scene was so adorable however my fav was Karou
If Only the Ninja was a pretty Girl in tight suit, then i will imagine Rihoko.
Is that really a ninja? Or is it mr. Bean!?
You should Ask-A-Ninja.
:-D
Wrong. Its Coyote.
A shameful display.
Funny fails, gotta love them
Funny yeah.. but diffidently too PC in the new one. Not a drop of digital blood to be seen!
_
Love all those failed Ninja tools going soo badly wrong! That fan blade return was awesome!
SHAMEFUR DISPRAY!
The enemy lets the ninja leave for future entertainment lol
Most truly so
Poor Ninja-kun. Some of the fails were just too funny.
This is light years funnier than Failblog!
Great game. Been playing Total War for over 5 years.
AI only cheats on higher difficulties.
These ninjas remind me of this commercial on youtube

I've played this game for what 30 hours in campaign mode and only seen one of those. Maybe my shinobi are a bit too good. :(
Send him to Kyoto and try on the Shogunate, you'll see it usually.
I just got that dream scene when I use the ninja for the first time in my campaign. It is so hilarious how that ninja is still alive after all the mess lol.
Lol. I love it when they include clips of what happens when you fail in games.
Lol The guy got pwned while the samurai was taking a piss.
those are hilarious and a little sad. i wonder how well this game will actually sell in japan.
Sega is only the publisher, they didn't develop anything in the game so heh.
Those are cute though, and I can't wait to play the game.
the art of killing :D
I just imagine the words "NINJA FAILS" popping up on the screen every time you fail. LOL!
I enjoyed the original Shogan TW and Rome TW. Empire left me cold. Not sure about this.
In soviet Japan, geisha assassinates ninja!
What a coincidence, they do that in feudal Japan too.
That was stupid funny!
Kept laughing
Asassins never work in any games of the Total War series, and you see why now :)
enough of this fucking titles sankaku
Probably Ashida Kim. XD
and here is a video showing the ninjas who did their job properly. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1nqc7ZSjOM&feature=related [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1nqc7ZSjOM&feature=related]
Their ninja fail hard compared to the original Shogun. (/)-)
In the original Shogun, the ninja fail more realistically.
Old "Shogun: Total War" ninja rules.
:-)
The new ninja looks lame even if he does the killing.
:-/
Still, I'll most likely buy "S:TW 2". I've been waiting for this game for years.
P.S.:
My favourite clan: Uesugi.
Poor thing... Uesugi was raped by Date, Takeda and even Ikko Ikki if you play on Legendary difficult
I only had small problems with Takeda clan, but their horses couldn't go up the high cliff in one of the provinces. That's where I moved my archers (Uesugi had kick-ass archers). And it's paaah! It's gone... Takeda was no more. I always enjoyed using terrain in big battles. And one more thing. I'm no expert, but there were no such clans as Date or Ikko in "Shogun: TW".
:-) ???
Those are names of people, not clans. Takeda can refer to the clan leader, Takeda Shingen.
My point is that the ONLY problems were caused by Takeda. Owning ALL other clans was just a matter of time.
:-)
I didn't see him running through the halls with his sword in his mouth and bumping into a samurai :)
This game bored me very quickly. It was fun for a couple of hours but then it just got repetitive and boring.
I played Empire and borrowed the 1st Shogun from a friend and found both to be very, very boring, even though he kept telling me how exciting both games are.
You should try Medieval 2 Total War with Stainless Steel add on. I find the battles there much more amusing. For me in ETW and NTW only maps were nice, battles not so much.
It's time... for total war! Hooray!!! The best thing about total war franchise is the depiction of corpses on the battlefield. I really adore it. ^_^
After all those fail assassination the ninja still alive? GG
No, dude. It's another ninja. Those who die will disappear from the map and those who have wounded will continue and fail.
He failed so hard that even the shogun pitied him.
