''Shall We Date: Ninja Assassin'' is an installment of the VisualNovel/ShallWeDate otome dating sim series, developed by Solware and released in 2014. It was later given a SpinOff, ''VisualNovel/ShallWeDateNinjaShadow''

In the Edo period in Japan, there was a shadowy group of vigilante ninjas - they did anything, even murder, as long as they got paid.

One day, the parents of a girl named Yui Takao (the PlayerCharacter) were falsely accused of a crime and murdered. Filled with sadness and anger, she made up her mind to avenge the deaths of her parents, and then she remembered there were assassins known as “the vigilantes.” Soon after that, she tried to get in touch with them, but she didn’t get any replies.

As she was about to give up, one of the vigilantes appeared in front of her and took to a tea house. After listening to her story, he suggested her join them to take vengeance on the people who murdered her parents. After a moment’s thought, she decided to take up his suggestion.

''Alongside the vigilante ninjas, she started your pursuit of justice.''
