House of Ninjas, a completely original story about the last living ninja family in modern times, started streaming on February 15th exclusively on Netflix. Since release, it has been ranked #1 in 16 countries and regions around the world, and has reached the Top 10 list in 92 countries around the world. From an original story by co-executive producer and star Kento Kaku, and developed by showrunner/director Dave Boyle, House of Ninjas is bringing ninja-mania to audiences worldwide.

The main cast members who portray the central Tawara family each chimed in to comment on this achievement.

Kento Kaku (Haru, Co-Executive Producer):

Global number one! We did it! It's like a dream. More than anything, it makes me happy to see so many people out there watching and falling in love with our show. And to score a win like this with an all-original story. I'm so proud of our team. Stay hidden out there, all you ninja!

Yosuke Eguchi (Soichi)

A family that left the ninja world behind and struggles to live a normal life I'm overwhelmed that this family and their struggle has resonated so deeply around the world. I hope audiences out there will watch it together with their families.

Tae Kimura (Yoko)

"Along with profound gratitude for everyone who watched, Im so proud of the cast and crew. I hope that so many people watch it that we ninjas will no longer be able to remain invisible."

Kengo Kora (Gaku)

It's such a challenge bringing audiences to a new show. To have a worldwide audience in such great numbers I'm so happy that the work of everyone on this show is being seen and enjoyed.

Aju Makita (Nagi)

Through our show, I'm so happy that Japanese culture and spirit of entertainment is reaching a worldwide audience.

Tenta Banka (Riku)

Yessssss! I'm so happy! The Tawara Family is the best. Hanzo the cat is too! I'll work hard to become a ninja the world can be proud of.

Nobuko Miyamoto (Grandma Taki)

I'm just a retired old lady, but hearing this unexpected good news makes me want to suit up and be a ninja again
