I just realize, what's with the three sizes info?
I mean sure tell the reader, but the placement feel out of place.

@ABCsOfLife I'm with you seems really out of place, especially since it has nothing to contribute to the story at all

Truck-kun failed? IMPOSSIBLE!!!
This is why you should never let someone intentionally drive Truck-kun. Only a Natural Truck-kun can isekai someone.

Honestly, it bothers me when the first size is bigger than the third.

@twinklecake
I know someone who had a bigger bust than hip size. Had, because she got kinda fat and got a breast reduction due to back problems so it's the opposite now.

@givemersspls The japanese always wrote themselves as better, get used to it.
Still finally, Hero vs bitch crazy princess, the battle hope she got send back her world and don't fuck again.

@givemersspls Ninja are still useful until too much countermeasure has been made like floor that make sound if we walk on it and japanese castle building are made knowing ninja exist.
They are spy and saboteur. And they are not shit else why Oda did purge those big clans and put them on the side of history. If they didn't get purged Japan could have a better spy network and then possibly beat USA when carrier are at pearl harbor not on sea the day of the attack and so on.

@givemersspls and in manga they use the boosted standard so ninja has effectively superpower like in naruto so yes I did read your comment you compared them to IRL I give you IRL example Sekigahara Battle as example for ninja good use. You just show how you consider others with condescending attitude that's all.(can be good if well used or bad)
@givemersspls No reason implie the author use SCI-FI plot hole. I use it too.
Alternative history : Ninja village hasn't been destroyed and modernized to modern warfare (infiltration grand battleplan doctrine)
Spy network early as japan side is landing "ninja" replacing commando and doing raid like US Marines and destroying AA and other early-warning and improving SNLF quality.
They can't get navajo but still can do better logistical damage and strike fear in those island garrisons. Their encryption was yes outdated I recognise MAGIC from the US beat them right but still can change like the butterfly effect.

@givemersspls If you did read enough japanese series for them it's obviously the case that's why those series are published only in japan. It's like some other chinese manhua that say Europe and USA are the same and called Western Countries. The writing is good for a Jap but if you are living elsewhere just close your eyes. It's like Stargate SG-1 : USA Russia and the others. There are others american TV series centered too that are at the same level of cringe for a Frenchman.

@Kamelpov and @givemersspls, Manga and/or anime as well as light novels, or generally anything out of Japan, China, and Korea is going to bolster their culture over anything else. To be honest, this happens everywhere, even in the U.S. We think our things are better than everywhere else. Thus, it should come as no surprise that a Japanese author makes a ninja either the best of the best (Naruto, etc.) or second, third, or fourth best. It's just like making Samurai better than all other fighters, warriors, etc. of ancient times when they're not.
Ultimately, if we're talking about history then I agree with givemersspls, the shinobi were only really effective during a time when they played against the code of the Samurai. They did things Samurai frowned upon and thus were utilized in wars for assassinations, espionage, etc. This didn't make them the best of the best, just a necessary group of people with a needed set of skills at the time. I would caution you, Kamelpov to not take legend and popculture about shinobi as something that could be attributed to history. Like, givemersspls says, the Navajo Code Talkers baffled the Axis during WWII. This doesn't mean there were no Japanese spies in WWII and prior: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Japanese_spies,_1930–45. By the time WWII came around espionage had evolved beyond what it was in the Bushido period. Citing anything from that time is out of touch with what was going on in the early 20th century. To diminish the Japanese ability to spy and collect intelligence during WWII diminishes spies like Takeo Yoshikawa who was one of the spies of Pearl Harbor: https://warfarehistorynetwork.com/daily/wwii/the-spies-of-pearl-harbor/, https://www.historynet.com/the-spy-who-doomed-pearl-harbor.htm.
I would argue Naruto gives a reason why ninjas are strong with chakra, etc. With the Samurai being mostly in the Land of Iron, however in that story the Samurai basically are warped ninjas since they got their abilities from the same source as the ninja from what I remember. Ultimately, it's just fiction. Not necessarily pulled from history since historically ninja are considered warped Samurai. So Naruto arguably flip-flopped it. Of course, not being Japanese, I'm going off history books, etc. that I read here.
Examples of Shinobi-like behavior in modernity is pretty much any guerrilla warrior who wages guerrilla warfare or anyone who wages unconventional warfare. Sometimes it works, sometimes they get the life bombed out of them by conventional armies. Sometimes, like Shinobi, they are attached to conventional militaries and governments as spies, etc.
Edited to add: I typed this up while you two were continuing your back and forth and you had already brought up the initial point I was making that "Ninjas are best" is mostly written for the Japanese readers.
