Trivia[]

Artwork from its various arcade cards is also seen on the TCG Move Cards Whirlwind (06 4th), Gust of Vengeance (Kaku 6th), Breakneck Blitz (06 5th), and Stealth Slash (06 6th).
This Move has had various interactions with other Moves:
- In Dance Evolution, Ace used it to jump over Tank's ground-splitting Earthquake.
- Ace used it against Terry in Temple Tempest, but Terry dodged it and Tag Team's Pawpawsaurus jumped into his place to get hit instead.
- Ace used it in A Mesozoic Mess to avoid getting hit by Allosaurus' Mayfly and then quickly hit it right after its attack was over.
In the anime, Wind Dinosaurs using this Move usually duplicate while rushing towards their opponent and then continue to run in a circle while enveloping the opponent, making it look similar to Mayfly (since they score similarly high numbers of hits). In the arcade, Wind Dinosaurs duplicate into only six copies that surround the opponent while standing still, then rush into the center to attack (thus only scoring six hits).
In the anime, the animation for Ninja Attack doesn't show the attack going for the center of the opponent, but a small triangle around them. This can be seen clearly in Ninja Nightmare!, when Ace uses it against the Deinonychus trio and merely corrals them closer together, failing to hit at all.
In The No-Fun Shogun, the lead Kunoichi makes an attack mimicking Ninja Attack's animation split-and-circle sequence, but it's interrupted by Foolscap summoning Megalosaurus before she can strike with it. Being used by an actual ninja references the Move itself being based on the fictional ninja technique of shadow cloning.
Though the DS Game recycles the arcade game's animation for this Move, the copies of the dinosaur are not present, and instead streaks of air with faintly visible flat wind-colored silhouettes strike the opponent.
