Inverse Ninja Proportion Theory

Clower was supposed to have filled you in on this, but he hasn't, so I didn't want to leave you hanging with the previous posting on Ninja Assassin, and still be befuddled concerning what exactly is the Ninja Inverse Proportion Theory.

First, we have to look at some things we DO KNOW about ninjas.

1. Ninjas are deadly
2. Ninjas are anonymous
3. Majority wear black when dealing death
4. Their business is death, not being eco-friendly farmers

Think of Snake Eyes, or Storm Shadow; just having a ninja on your team makes you able to wipe out massive amounts of enemy dudes.

So if you know that a ninja is a BAMF, then you would think that somehow having more of them would be like stockpiling hundreds, no thousands, of nuclear missiles, making everyone fear you, right?

And here is, strangely, where the Inverse Ninja Proportion theory comes in. Even though one ninja is equivalent to 100 soldiers, give or take, the Universe seems to have corrected the inevitable disproportionate balance of power.

• 1 Ninja > 100 Soldiers
• 100 Ninjas < 1 Ninja

In fact, the fewer the total number of Ninjas, the greater the BAMF factor divvied out. So total Ninja BAMF quotient would look something like:

• B = 1/N

where B is total absolute BAMF factor, and N is number of ninjas.

Two startling examples of this are:

American Ninja - In the beginning, the American soldiers are ambushed by several ninjas, and the soldiers lose. Why? Because ninjas are deadly. Yet there is one American ninja, and by the end of the movie, he destroys the enemy compound of hundreds of ninjas.

And of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle movies. TMNT's consistent foes are the Foot Clan, a clan of ninjas, and more often than not, the 4 turtle ninjas are able to beat the horde of ninjas exported by the Foot Clan.
