They're not exactly common, but I guess a few are still around. Some are even Chinese, if you can believe that. The guy who attacked me was. He came after me with a big, sharp katana (sharp enough to cut a streetcar in two!) when he found out I'd dated his daughter. He stood down after I beat that half-ninja (and also because of some other thing I did that I won't get into) though.

Speaking of which, beats me what makes a half-ninja, but that's what she kept saying she was. She was blonde and kind of on the fat side. Maybe that has something to do with it?
