HAIKU!

HAIKU! is an Action Platformer for the DS and the first installment in the HAIKU! series. It is about a young ninja named Haiku who, as his first task of being the best graduate from his school, sets off to defeat the evil Master Pound. 
==Story==
Haiku is getting ready for his graduation day. The awards ceremony had began. He found a seat with his friend Sai and awaited the awards. The school master was giving out the final award. It was the Golden Kunai, the most treasured weapon in the entire school. The master announced that this prize was for a ninja who showed amazing skill, talent and responsibility. The award went to Haiku. Haiku jumped up and proudly walked over to get his Kunai. Sai cheered as he took the Kunai from his master. He was just about to go back to his seat when his master stopped him. He told him that if he wished to keep the Kunai, he must defeat Master Pound, a criminal who terrorizes the valley. Haiku bowed politely and told him he would do it. His master then let him out and Haiku set off on a challenging journey.
