[edit] Story

The Kagemori family has secretly protected its neighbour, the Konnyaku family, for 400 years. Mamoru has been the protector of the daughter, Konnyaku Yuna, since they were in kindergarten. When Yuna is in trouble, Mamoru quickly puts on his ninja suit and transforms into a competent ninja; able to protect her from harm. Unfortunately, this poses quite a challenge as Yuna, being both clumsy and absent-minded, often stumbles into situations where Mamoru must once again come to her rescue.

On the first day of their new school term, a model airplane accidentally makes a dive towards Yuna, but it is quickly stopped by a thrown kunai. At school, Sawagashi Airi invites Yuna to go bowling, but is unhappy when Mamoru also comes.

At the bowling alley, Yuna wanders into the men's restroom and interrupts a yakuza deal involving fake dolls. As a result, they kidnap her and take her to their boss. Mamoru follows them, takes out the gang, and rescues Yuna.

The story continues as new characters enter Yuna and Mamoru's lives with both good and evil intentions, wacky adventures, hints of romance, and confrontations with the strangest of adversaries.

[edit] Characters

Kagemori Mamoru
Kagemori Mamoru is a dowdy boy whose hair is disheveled and wears thick glasses. He is very lazy except when he's saving Yuna. He wears the glasses as a form of concealment/camouflage. He is actually the son of a ninja family. He reveals his true self (without glasses) when he transforms into a ninja to protect Yuna from harm. He has been friends with Yuna since kindergarten. He has a fear of bears. His fear of bears developed because of him trying to protect Yamame from the bear. He has always been in the same class with Yuna every year since kindergarten.

Konnyaku Yuna
Yuna is Mamoru's childhood friend and neighbor. She is a quite clumsy and often ditzy girl. These qualities cause her to get into many troublesome situations. Since she has known Mamoru since kindergarten, Mamoru knows everything about her, except the thing that Yuna looks at every night before bed. The thing Yuna looks at before she goes to sleep is a photo of her and Mamoru which she cherishes. It is hinted that she is in love with Mamoru, but is afraid to admit her love to him.

Sawagashi Airi
Airi, a wealthy girl, is a classmate and friend of Mamoru and Yuna. She discourages any relationship between Yuna and Mamoru, because childhood friends who become lovers are generally unsuccessful. However, she also has feelings for Kagemori. She conceals her feelings by always beating up Mamoru but occasionally gives hints that she likes him but unfortunately Mamoru doesn't understand it.

After finding out the truth about the yakuza boss, she takes revenge on that boss. She also decides to enter Mamoru's school. After Mamoru cheers her up while she was depressed about being old-fashioned, she begins to develop feelings for him.

Yamame is a ninja and a relative of Mamoru. She remembers when Mamoru comforted her when she was little; however, she is quite disappointed after seeing the glasses-wearing person he is now.

Kumogakure Hotaru
Hotaru is a ninja. She confesses her love to Mamoru when they first meet. She lost to Yamame in a ninja athletic meet after being distracted by Yamame pretending to see a UFO.
