1.NINJA KOTAN stands for “Ninja Village”

I will explain why we are using the service name NINJA KOTAN.

KOTAN means “village” in Ainu language. Therefore, NINJA KOTAN stands for “Ninja Village”.

Since I am a graduate of Hokkaido University, I used the Ainu language of the indigenous people of Hokkaido. I see the Ainu people as a symbol of diversity and environmental protection, and I believe that the Ainu language is also in line with the better society we are aiming for.

 

2. “Ninja” jumps lightly

“Ninja” jumps lightly, so I used it as the name because the image of “light and not carrying luggage” matches the image of “easy travel”. I thought it would be easy to understand that the ninja is famous not only in Japan but also in foreign countries.

 

3. “Village” is the community

“Village” is attached to the meaning of the community. We believe that the participation and cooperation of many people is necessary to realize our mission of “creating a world where everyone can travel easily.” “Easy travel” is more than just renting what you need at your destination. Travel destination information is also indispensable for an “easy trip”. Therefore, we will actively disseminate travel information. I think it would be great if all of these things developed as a community.

The above is the origin of NINJA KOTAN.
