{{Quote|As we went along looking at everything, it was so hot that we ducked into a playhouse to cool off. They were doing a ninja show. A number of ninja were surrounding the main samurai and one lashed out with a kusarigama (sickle-and-chain). The lead samurai caught it with his left arm, the chain stretched tight, and the ninja moved in a circle around him.|Toru Osawa{{Ref|name=IA-OoT3D|[[Interview:Iwata Asks: Ocarina of Time 3D (Original Development Staff - Part 1)|Iwata Asks: Ocarina of Time 3D - Original Development Staff - Part 1]]}}}}

{{Quote|What caught my attention in the studio park was the sword fight. They regularly put on shows in which the hero defeats ruffians. Watching that, I thought, "Hmm, that's weird." That was because there was no way one person could fight and win when surrounded by 20 opponents. I thought there must be some kind of trick, so I watched very closely, and it was simple. It's a sword battle, so there's a script and a certain setup. The enemies don't all attack at once. First, one attacks while the others wait. When the first guy goes down, the next one steps in, and so on.|Yoshiaki Koizumi<ref name="IA-OoT3D" />}}
