From Japan Foundation Center for Cultural Exchange in Vietnam:
The Japan Foundation Center for Cultural Exchange in Vietnam proudly presents “Lecture and Demonstration about NINJA” in cooperation with Japanese National University, Mie University on 16 and 17 of November in Hanoi.
Japanese ninjas have become popular to the world through films, anime, manga and so on. But has anyone seen a real ninja? What type of person a ninja is? What skills does a ninja have?
Mie University is located in the Mie prefecture in Japan. Mie prefecture is known as the home of the Iga ninjas. Researchers here study about ninjas from different cultural and historical view points.
We have invited Professor Yamada and Associate Professor Yoshimaru from Mie University to hold a lecture about ninjas. In addition, Master Kawakami Jinichi – known as the 21st head of the Koka ninja clan – will demonstrate the skills that ninjas have.
The lecture and demonstration will be conducted in Japanese with Vietnamese interpretation.
