Ninja Trials and Clan Battle Unlockables

How to unlock Kanji and the Team Ninja Logo

There are a total of 2,136 kanji available in the game. Obtaining all kanji unlocks the Team Ninja logo. The game automatically unlocks ten kanji at random when it’s first powered up. Additional kanji are unlocked randomly as you clear Ninja Trials and play Clan Battles, and if you perform a Ghost Kill in Clan Battle against an opponent who is wearing a kanji you do not have. However, some kanji can only be unlocked through Ghost Kills and are not accessible any other way.
