In the short movie "Urban Ninja" created, directed, edited, and played by Robert James Hoffman III, the main character is a Caucasian male ninja interestingly named Kinetsu Hayabusa. This movie is a parody poking fun of the legendary Japanese assasins- the ninjas. Through the film, we can see how the maker of this movie has a misconception of how ninjas possess mysterious powers. For example, the ninja tried to stop the car with his bare hands on the road. There are a many other examples of what is "bad Japanophilism", so please check the video here, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RVlGm-s7Lz8&mode;=related&search;=
