Ninjas often were samurai, as far as I know, so this question is moot.

If Sam had gone full cyborg he would've fucking destroyed Raiden.

if he has a master and follows the code he's samurai
if he is a mercenary and has no regard for honor he is ninja

He is an edgy Mary Sue.

Are you fucking stupid?

Ninjas and samurai were fundamentally opposed to each other.

The whole point of Sam's character was that he was so good because he was still mostly human.

You watch too much Naruto

Yeah, ninjas also created illusion of themselves with their chakras.
>>
>>336283338
I thought ninja was just a name for a Japanese spy/assassin. A samurai couldn't do that? Was the samurai code of honor a real thing or just a made up thing like the code of chivalry, aimed at preventing men from raping quite so many women?

>>336283417
He was so good despite being human.

If you put him in a cybernetic body like Raiden's, he would've been better than Raiden. It's the same concept as the HF blades, Sam's was better because it's base was better before getting supped up.

if you had a cyborg body, would you have penis stimulation signals sent to your brain 24/7?

Nah, it was that he was so good DESPITE the fact he was mostly human. The doctor was flabbergasted that he had barely any augmentation.

The commanders from SupCom. Those plasma cannons sting.

>just a made up thing like the code of chivalry, aimed at preventing men from raping quite so many women?
It's not so easy, but basically yeah. It was created in the late 19th, but has roots in the 17th century. It's not completely made, as much as chivalry.

>>336283591
Samurai were essentially Japanese knights - they attended nobles and kept a code of honor. Ninjas were guerrilla fighters and spies. It's not out fo the question to think that at some point a samurai did some spying or a ninja was hired by a noble, but to conflate the two is idiotic.
>>
>>336283591
the samurai code of honor was a thing the people in charge uses as a tool to demand samurai that pissed them off publicly kill themself.

if a samurai acted dishonorably towards some peasants, unless his lord was a massive moral fag, they couldn't do jack shit about it
