But Nobuo is happy with his life; he has a lovely wife and two kids who don't hate him. For Nobuo has a dark secret; he was raised in the Nakuru ninja clan and trained to become their top assassin. When he met his wife Aya for the first time, Nobuo knew love and abandoned the clan ways. So his former clan sends out hunters to kill Nobuo. Even worse, every so often Nobuo will run into someone who can't be reasoned of negotiated with, they threaten mortal danger to those he cares about, and he's forced to break out his ninja skills and become the merciless assassin of his youth.

!!Tropes that appear in Ninja Papa include:
* BadBoss: The new General Manager (the Manager's boss)makes the Manager look like a half-decent person, and is homicidal when confronted.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Nobuo really believes in trying to solve problems with reason and negotiation. But when the chips are down, he's deadly.
* BumblingDad: Nobuo is sometimes perceived as this, even by himself, as he never had a role model of a loving parent.
* ConservationOfNinjutsu: If this chapter's ninja attack in a pack, Nobuo will take care of them in a couple of pages. If only one shows up, they're a serious threat that will take a full chapter or more to deal with.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: More than one of Nobuo's opponents is taken off-guard by trying to reconcile his ninja garb with his bumbling civilian persona.
* EvilTeacher: Umi's second-grade teacher, who seems just callous at first, but has some very repellent ideas on the proper treatment of children.
* ExtremeDoormat: Nobuo's normal persona. Not all that different in its way from the emotionless ninja who instantly obeys any command from the clan that he was raised to be.
* FreudianExcuse: Umi's second-grade teacher was sexually abused by his mother, which explains some of his issues.
* GoodPeopleHaveGoodSex: Nobuo and Aya have an active, healthy sex life.
* JapaneseDelinquents: A gang of these causes trouble in Nobuo's neighborhood and he's drafted to deal with it. He's visibly struggling to hold back and not kill them.
* {{Ninja}}: Both Nobuo and his old clanmates.
* OfficeLady: Noguchi, the one co-worker who understands Nobuo's inner nobility (but not his inner assassin.)
* PapaWolf: Threaten Nobuo's children or wife and you will not live to regret it.
* PointyHairedBoss: Nobuo's manager, who's sexist, racist, lazy and fails to understand the "customer service" part of "customer service department". He's abusive to his subordinates and a lickspittle to his superiors.
* {{Salaryman}}: Nobuo's day job.
* ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney: Mr. Kamijo, who can have a man-eating lion attack one of his party guests for fun, and claims that he has enough money to cover up anything.
* TrainingFromHell / TheSpartanWay: How the Nakuru clan raises their children.
* UglyGuyHotWife: Nobuo's wife Aya is extremely attractive in-universe and people are constantly amazed at Nobuo's luck.
* YouNeedToGetLaid: The Manager's advice for dealing with personal problems, always misguided.
