Hats off to Ayamami Yukiko for pulling off these moves with only one eye—and with that eye peering through a fairly teeny hole in that mask! (Presumably the Ayakami use a semi-mystical ninja art to ensure consistent visibility through their Noh masks.)

Panel 1: This move was a callback to a moment from vol.3's previous Ayakami ninja fight in which a foe surprised Ninjette with a chain-based disarming strike.

Today’s Patreon update: Open slot in the weekly schedule today! Not sure what I’ll be posting, but something will go up today. I’ve been posting every weekday (sometimes multiple times per day) on this Patreon for over a year, so why stop now?
