This contest was intended as a fun forum of semi-discussion and something on the less serious side for once; we hope it was interesting, amusing and perhaps even informative!

Ninjas are much more awesome than pirates because ninjas don't have to be stuck on a ship for months with a bunch of other smelly/dirty men who might have scurvy.

Ninjas are better than pirates, because they don't wear big *** hats.

Plus, ninjas don't walk like they have a stick wedged in their anus.

[Avan-V.4]

At first I thought there was no way ninjas could be cooler than pirates because all I ever heard about was pirates, then it hit me:
I never hear about ninjas and that is because "they are so ninja."



Male ninjas play with female ninjas, whereas pirates play with each other's "stick legs."

the reason why ninjas are so much better then pirates because pirates are known to have bad hygenine. Even blackbeard with his little peg and his scurvy wouldn't beable to make a stance against a stealth apatheic ninja. I think the Pirate would be tripping on things because how fast the ninja moves.

the ninjas are very agile, they don't tell a soul if they steal something, and most important of all they have magical scrolls to defend off any pirate within their range. I also think that the pirate would be drunk the pirate would be swinging watch out for your limbs pirate.

Ninja are cooler than pirate cause
They got nerves
They water themselves with soap to not be detected from far away
They don't shoot long text before to get you down
They are deadly in every environment
xD

No woman , no cry
No bulker, no game

[Scicon]

Ninjas are cooler than Pirates because,

Ninja wears cool black and gets to sleep at daytime and comes out only at nite to have cool fun jumpin quickly from one place to another killin in stealth mode for entertainment.

Pirates wears fishy pieces of cloths and plays on a boat day and nite looking for other boats , if no boats they go fishing for entertainment.

NINJA In Japanese history, a ninja is a warrior specially trained in a variety of unorthodox arts of war. These include assassination, espionage, and other martial arts. Ninja also employed a variety of weapons and tricks using gunpowder. Smoke bombs and firecrackers were widely used to aid an escape or create a diversion for an attack. They used timed fuses to delay explosions.

PIRATES Piracy is robbery committed at sea, or sometimes on shore, without permission from a nation. They have no training at all. They are drunk people who want to robe unarmed or sometimes armed ships... but the best of all is that pirates have no fear.

so in my opinion ninjas are better thant pirates.. they have better bettle tacticts and better weapons ( weapon for everything ).. In modern world they are also paid assassins... so the ninja is definitly better TY

[Lonelyassassin1]

Ninjas are wayyyyyyyyyy much more better than pirates because they can throw pointy star shaped pieces of metal (shurikans) as accurate as an archer! Plus they can cut up pirates little ships! Also notice the connection ---Lonely ASSASSIN --Ninjas are ASSASSINS

[*Thor*]

The Ninjas are better than the pitarates for several reasons:

First: the Ninjas are legendary warriors and his mission was to protect his territory of the enemies while the pirates were killer or mercenary.

Second: the ninjas possess the art of the ninjutsu that is a variety of magic tricks unlike the pirates xD.

Third: The ninjas have a better control with the swords that the pirates and the ninjas are a few specialists in short, medium and long range of assault.
