Difference Between Samurais and Ninjas

1. Both samurais and ninjas were warriors that lived during ancient Japan that have been immortalized throughout the years.

2. Samurais were noblemen that followed the bushido code when they engage in combat. Ninjas belonged to the lower socio-economic status of Japanese society and follow an unorthodox style of fighting.

3. Samurais are warriors that serve the ruling emperor or shogunate without requiring a fee for their services. On the other hand, ninjas are hired mercenaries that would be willing to serve anyone who is willing to pay them their asking price in return for their services.
