I bought this in Kanazawa, Ishikawa, the first time I visited Japan. Natsuko and I were in a souvenir shop, and I think I paid under a dollar for this slide-puzzle. It is awesome for a few reasons:
1) The spelling of Ninja is unique, "Ninjya".
2) Stylized kids dressed up as ninjas.
3) Ninjya Kid Left is in the air about to deliver a sword slash to Ninjya Kid Right.
4) The golden pavillion is in the Background, and it is not located in Kanazawa.
5) Kanazawa was a famous training place for Ninjas, and this is an official Kanazawa Ninja souvenir !
Anyways, the real reason I wanted to post a picture of this puzzle is because after years of it sitting incomplete, I finally finished it !
