Following some debating between Ninjas and pirates, I've added a new contestant to the debate. Do you like samurais better, ninjas better, or pirates better? Remember that they are mostly disbanded and gone now, but let's say if you were to join one of the classes, which would you join?

Pirates - Uh, probably never
Ninja - Very cunning, stealthy and proud. Love to be one of those.
Samurai - They look awesome! Wouldn't mind being this one either.

Ninjas are the noobs. *hopes strop isn't anywhere near here*

Samurai = Some of the most intelligent people evar. They had to be if they were to be such great swordsmen.

Pirates = Freakin' awesome.

Thanks to pop culture.

You'd rather be against the law?


What law are you talking about? Do you have any right to accuse me of illegal activities?

Well, piracy was punishable by hanging back when stereotypes for them didn't exist.

Ninjas are better the Samurai because in a war the side with the ninjas won, as for pirates, a mordern day ninja sword can cut a bullet from now a days, IN HALF, im sure the past blades which are as a good as mordern day swords can do the same, so pirate would also lose. NINJAS FTW

What makes you think pirates had lower quality weaponry? It's all still made the same nowadays, you know. Besides, I'd take a cutlass over a katana any day.

Some pirates turned to being privateers. That was legal back in those days.

NINJAS FTW


Noobs.

a mordern day ninja sword can cut a bullet from now a days


That's absurd and delusional.

Pirates' weapons weren't horrible. They were up to par of the time and era.


Ninjas are better the Samurai because in a war the side with the ninjas won


What war was that? Are you getting info from video games?

There are numerous misconceptions over ninjas. In reality they were skillful assassins. They weren't flying super warriors.

*coughnarutocough*


Seriously. Just cause they're ninjas doesn't mean they can move so fast you can't see them, or cut a bullet in two.

I agree. What is truth and what is myth about ninjas is hard to figure out. Ninjas also can't catch arrows.

Well, you could, but it would cause damage to your hand even if you managed to catch it at the shaft. And if I was the one shooting... Well, you'd be dead. Or severely wounded. I am a good archer though...

Realistically and practically, catching an arrow won't help. You wouldn't catch it the first time, due to the difficulty. You'd be dead.

Stop watching Naruto ppl -_- It's messing with your conception of reality.

Honestly, in an epic battle between individuals of the three, it'd go down to common sense and who's the most skillful...pirate might have the upper hand should they have a gun and aren't too drunk to shoot it straight, as a bullet's speed is probably faster than any ninja or samurai who happen to be in the way. This would technically be cheating, but that is 'the pirate way' =P
Though I wouldn't put it past any of the other two that they didn't use guns every once in awhile as well once they became available and the main armament of the main armies...so who knows?

Not only Naruto..

I haven't heard of ninjas using guns but samurais did use guns when needed.
