Updated: Oct 11, 2019



About Ninja - Musashi Clan 武蔵 The Musashi clan consists of number of families and people who have built close relations of trust with the Shibata Family of the Musashi Province. The Shibata of Musashi became retainer of Tokugawa Ieyasu and served the Tokugawa Shogunate for 265 years as intelligence operatives called 'Metsuke 目付 (inspectors)' and 'Onmitsu 隠密 (undercover agent)'.


In 1868 the clan became independent and formed an order of shinobi. The clan has become a small think and do tank and started to offer services such as seminars and experiences to introduce the ninja and samurai cultures of the Clan Shibata since 2007.



According to Mansenshukai 萬川集海, a classic ninjutsu ext compiled by Fujibayashi Sabuji 藤林佐武次 in 1676, the ninja were divided into two statuses. Shinobizamurai (samurai warriors) who were the heads of the ninja clans, and shinobinomono (people trained by the shinobizamurai). The Shibatas were the shinobizamurai who assumed the roles of masterminds, and created and devised tools & weapons, as well as training their servants to operate in stealth.
