Near the end of its run, the show received a movie titled ''Shuriken School: The Ninja's Secret'' or ''The Ninja's Secret: A Shuriken School Adventure'' which aired on Creator/{{Disney Channel}} Asia on December 21, 2007 and was released on [=DVD=] in the US on April 15, 2014. |

Said school is headed by an elderly principal and consists of a crew of quirky teachers, their school uniform is of a primary color which contrasts with the secondary color of their rivals, and they even have a FunnyAnimal among the cast.

36 | ** In "Pop Star for a Day", [[https://i.ytimg.com/vi/jk9w6te1idE/hqdefault.jpg Eizan and Okuni]] -- after their makeover -- resemble [[Manga/{{Naruto}} Naruto and Sarada]] respectively.[[note]]''Manga/{{Boruto}}'' not yet being conceived at the time of the episode's airing notwithstanding.[[/note]] |
