5
6	!!Tropes found in Ninja Express:
7
8	* AmbiguouslyHuman: The three ninjas look human, but one has the ability to do MentalTimeTravel and his eyes glow red with spinning clocks shown when he time travels mentally, which raises questions about what they really are. Similarly, The Giant in one episode that parodies Jack and the Beanstalk ''may'' or may not be human, but it's never stated outright.
9	* AnachronismStew: [[JustifiedTrope Justified]], since the Ninjas time travel; one episode features a Viking using a modern-day DJ set on a boat.
10	* ComicBookTime: While the ninjas' ages are never stated, they don't seem to age either.
11	* GoKartingWithBowser: Although never really evil ''per se'', Erik the Red's oarsmen seemed to be happier partying with the blonde Vikings (the heroes of one episode). In the same episode, we see the supposed targets of the Vikings partying with them!
12	* GratuitousNinja: The situations themselves could stand alone as stories on their own, but this is done as much for RuleOfFunny as RuleOfCool.
13	* HornyVikings: Historical accuracy isn't this show's strong suit anyway, but then again, this is [[PlayedForLaughs about the comedy from the situation]].
14	* {{ManChild}}: [[ZigZaggingTrope Zig-zagged]]. On one hand, they do show some signs of being childish, but one of the trio treats it as a business that has to be managed day in day out, but reconstructed in that they are adults with slightly childish, eccentric personalities, and they seem to be accepted well by their clients.
15	* NoAntagonist: Zig-zagged; there's no BigBad, but the closest things to villains in some episodes are just obnoxious people, and even then, the obnoxiousness goes at the end of the episode.
16	* NoNameGiven: None of the Ninjas' names are given at all.
17	* RaceAgainstTheClock: Every episode they have to get a delivery within a very short timespan... and it gets more difficult as things go on.
18	* StatusQuoIsGod: The only constants are the ninjas running a delivery service in the city center; other than that, no matter what injuries befall them or time period they go back to, it returns to normal next episode.
19	* TheUnintelligible: The ninjas don't speak that well, it's gibberish that sounds like squeaks.
20	* TimeTravel: Integral to the plot, since the Ninjas ''have'' to travel via a black hole to other time periods to get whatever the client wants!
21	* TimeyWimeyBall: It's never stated outright how the TimeTravel method works, apart from a black hole being created.
22	* VagueAge: How old are the ninjas anyway? It's not stated on-screen, and they seem child-sized but one acts very adult at times, making it confusing at times.
