The pseudo-Anime' "Afro Samurai" is set in a futuristic feudal Japan, in which all the swordsmen in the world are in a murderous pursuit of the 1 Headband, which once obtained, would allow its wearer to call himself a god and master of all that he surveys. Jackson swears an oath of vengeance against now- 1 Justice. Undergoing conventional samurai training by a renowned master, young Afro grows up, receives the 2 Headband, sets out on his mission of revenge and attempts to obtain the 1 Headband, cutting down every single man who challenges him.

Bearing witness to it all is Afro's loyal sidekick and only friend, Ninja Ninja also voiced by Jackson , who provides much of the show's comic relief. In many ways, at least to me, "Afro Samurai" was a long time coming. He also took Okiku's comb and placed it in Afro's Hair. He is also seen through a set of binoculars, so it is safe to assume others can see and interact with him but choose not to due to being focused mostly on acquiring The Number 2 Headband or Killing Afro.

The fact that others can also see him is supported by the fact that Justice himself claimed to do so and is even aware that Ninja Ninja is " imaginary ". Ninja Ninja's clothes are likely a reference to his name, being that they are typical of a common ninja. He wears a blue attire and has a white afro which stands in contrast to Afro's own hair. He wears a pair of red sunglasses and a long scarf.

He is also shown carrying a small knife in the first episode. Ninja Ninja first appeared to Afro after the Battle at the Bodhi tree, when all his friends and Sword Master had been killed, and tells him to shed no tears, he'll follow Afro as his "Road Dog". Since then follows Afro , encouraging him to do certain deeds such as take advantage of Okiku 's advances and kill Brother 6. Ninja Ninja alway traveling with Afro and he is always with him, even when he's fighting.

Ninja Ninja sometimes helps him and sometimes annoys him. At the beginning of Episode 5, it is revealed that Ninja Ninja was the one that was "killed" by Kuma's strike; a symbolic way of showing that Afro has come to terms with the loss of his friends at this point in his journey.

Also about halfway through the episode when Afro finally meets Justice again, Justice states that he watched him shed his imaginary friend Ninja. Ninja Ninja reappears asking Afro "if it will ever end?

Ninja Ninja shouts to Afro as he walks away but does not seem to follow him. Ninja Ninja also appears in the Afro Samurai official video game.
