#NO MORE HEROES SHINOBU BUTT SERIES#

Some of the most interesting missions involve playing as Shinobu, the blindly faithful “student” of Travis, despite his overt and apparent lack of caring to be her “Master.” This character was introduced in the first game, so fans of the series will be glad to see her inclusion as a playable character.
