Why Zipang-sha

A small professional troupe, trained every week.

Our performers are Ninja Onmitsu-tai — a small, dedicated professional troupe. They train every single week, building real physical conditioning before they ever rehearse a show. That discipline is what makes the action on stage feel genuine.

The team is led by a master who in his earlier years became a world champion in martial arts. His uncompromising eye for movement and discipline shapes every performance.

Track Record

Trusted on real international stages

We have presented an English ninja & samurai show for an overseas company’s incentive tour at Happo-en, Tokyo; a private ninja show in Tokyo for a group from Saudi Arabia; and an English-language ninja show for a corporate group from the Philippines at the Nagoya Marriott Associa Hotel.

We regularly perform at five-star hotels and international conference venues nationwide.

FAQ

Questions from event planners

How does the English work?
Shows combine recorded English narration with a live English MC, so international guests follow everything directly — no interpreter needed. A fully non-verbal version is also available for mixed-nationality audiences.
Can you perform for guests of any nationality?
Yes. The action-driven format works for guests of any nationality. We have performed for groups from Saudi Arabia, the Philippines and many other countries.
How much space do you need?
A stage area of roughly 6m wide × 3.5m deep is enough. We perform in five-star hotel ballrooms, conference halls and outdoor settings.
Can you perform overseas?
Yes. We welcome inquiries for performances outside Japan — festivals, corporate events and incentive programs in Southeast Asia, the Middle East and beyond.
How much does it cost, and how do we book?
Pricing is tailored to each program — number of performers, show length, audience and region. Send your date, venue and guest profile and we’ll propose the best plan and a quote.
What do you need at the venue?
We bring our own costumes, props and choreography. Sound is played through the venue’s audio system as standard — recorded music and English narration run from there. If a venue has no suitable system and equipment must be brought in, this is arranged separately, at additional cost. We need a flat performance area. Stage lighting is used when the venue has it, but the show works fully without any special lighting. We confirm the technical details with your venue in advance.
How many performers come, and can you scale the cast?
A standard show features three ninja performers, with staff support on the day. We can add cast for larger stages or keep it intimate for VIP settings, and will recommend the right size for your room and guest count.
How far in advance should we book?
About one month ahead is ideal for ninja and samurai shows, but shorter lead times are often possible — please ask even if your date is near.
What are your cancellation terms?
Cancellation terms are set out clearly in the agreement for each booking, before you confirm. Please ask and we’ll share the details for your date and program.
How is insurance and liability handled?
Performance liability is generally covered under the venue’s or organizer’s event insurance. Where additional cover is required, we’re happy to discuss the right arrangement for your booking.
