I like the ninja look that really disguises her perfectly. The early fight scene with him is really good! She unmasks him by hitting him and he compliments her on her eyes.
That she then decides to drop that mask in favor of that eye mask that covers perhaps 5% of her head…… is really annoying for me in two ways.
Not only does she give up the good disguise of her normal mask, she seemingly wants to show much more of her face to him incl. her blonde hair.
She tries much too hard to make more of an impression on him after he already made her a compliment for her eyes earlier on. He was already interested…..
So, she decides to basically unmask herself, even the “mask” is supposed to work as a disguise in the show. A classic trope with these tiny masks.
I really enjoy how they fight each other, I love the tension between them, it’s basically like Catwoman battling with Batman, only that here the man is the bad guy. (Ok, Catwoman is actually only “half-bad”).
The scene where he wants her to take off the mask but she refuses is very sexy for me, as I love such “mask-talk” scenes. Very sexy how he reaches for her mask and is about to kiss her at the same time. Sadly it’s only a dream…. with a funny ending 😆
What I really hate is that he then finds out who she is without unmasking her! That gives me major Batwoman TV show-flashes in a way…..
All that sexy build-up and then he just knows…. LAME!
How great would have been if they had continued to fight and he would have unmasked her as she struggled to keep her mask on.
And then with the ninja two-part mask…imagine him slowly yanking her mask down, pulling the headpiece off to fully reveal the woman underneath….
But ok, all in all, there is a lot of good aspects here for me.

The scenes can be found in episodes 2 and 9 of season 2 of Supah Ninjas.
I watched these “American Ninja” movies as a kid and decided to check them out for masked women, and I did find some scenes!
In this flick, we have the american ninja and a woman infiltrating the HQ of the villain. He is already in costume and knocks out some guards outside. She get one of their outfits and becomes a ninja herself (her transformation isn’t shown in the movie).
Now they are in the base and wanna free her dad who gets used by the villain for his evil plans 😉

Damn, she looks really smashing in the outfit and mask!
As usual, there are quite some things that could have been done better….but well, I’m happy about this scene!
A shame she wasn’t trained in any martial arts, would have been much cooler if she actually would participate in a fight.
On the other hand, we get a decent unmasking scene, even if it’s “only” a self unmasking.
There are no more scenes of her in mask.
They should make a series of new movie of American Ninja, this time with a woman! That would be awesome 🙂
