Where did ninjas originate from china or japan?

I didn't know that Chinese had ninja.

Where Did Ninjas Originate

Japan

They were Japanese. There were also female ninja. Unlike the samurai, ninja didn't have a code of honor to follow.

I believe ninja can be used to describe one or many.No ' s ' needed.

I was believing they were from Japan, but yeah, most ninjas in Hollywood are from China...

Ninjas (or Shinobi) originated from Japan.

There were many different types like Iga or Koga ninjas. They were mostly from clans who collected money from Lords who wanted to snuff out an enemy clan. Kunoichi, or Female ninja, were often used for stealth missions.

I hope this helped. ^^

If you mean the blackclad shuriken throwing assasins in movies and manga, then Japan.

There's a theory that ninjas didn't exist. The word "ninja" was coined after WWII.
