The episode will eventually become available on other streaming platforms such as U-Next and Amazon Prime Video.
A quick summary of Undead Ninja Episode 2
The previous episode began with Kuro asking the leader of the Rear-Enders to surrender. The leader would not give up so easily, but Kuro managed to intimidate her into believing she had a weapon pointing at her that could melt her arm. Meanwhile, Kato talked about a case where someone was cutting off male organs. In response, genins were dispatched to track down the culprit.
The episode then switched from September 9 to July 23. It was revealed that the foreigner had decided to become a ninja. He had to infiltrate the ninja organization to save his daughter, who was being held hostage. To gain the attention of the ninja, he resorted to chopping off the male organs of unsuspecting victims.
On the following night, the foreigner targeted his third victim, who turned out to be Sasama, a former first-class ninja. The foreigner was thrilled at the prospect of taking down a member of this elite league of assassins but failed to take down Sasama despite multiple gunshots. The ninja's torso became invisible, and he managed to escape.
The foreigner suddenly lost all hope, believing that neither the ninja nor his bosses would let him live after he failed his assignment. Meanwhile, Kato and Sasama engaged in a conversation about the Japanese prime minister's reluctance to deploy ninjas beyond Japan's borders. Sasama hinted that the problem lay with the Under Ninja.
What to expect from Under Ninja Episode 3?
It is likely that Under Ninja Episode 3 will explain how Kuro, who was given the task of taking down the foreigner within three days, completed the assignment. There will also be a focus on the fight against the Rear-Enders. But, more importantly, viewers will be curious to find out what Under Ninja is and how it has affected the government.
