I have created a YouTube playlist with a complete playthrough of Tenchu: Stealth Assassins with Rikimaru. The playlist also includes opening and ending movies. The playlist is ordered to start with the intro, then levels 1-10 and last the ending movie.
If you have got Tenchu videos you would like me to either upload or add to our YouTube channel then email me: selenia (at) tenchu . de
After joining Facebook, Kyandisaru suggested creating a Tenchu Checkpoint Tumblr as well. So that’s what we did and we have been busy finding interesting content for it. Have a look for yourself here!
If you would like to submit cosplay photos, fan art, fan fiction for us to use, then either use the Tumblr submit button or email it to: selenia (at) tenchu . de
Everything posted to Tumblr will also appear on our Facebook wall. Hope the update frequency is not too much for your Facebook feed. If so let me know and I will try to reduce the amount of posts. I am looking into ways to get the Tumblr posts automatically streamed here as well, but in the meantime just enjoy and hopefully participate!
Check out the just restored fan fiction section with 30+ stories for the extended Tenchu universe.
In other news Shadow Assassin wrote a general article about Tenchu: Shadow Assassins here and BottledChi did the same for Tenchu Z here.
Tenchu Checkpoint has now a Facebook page. Join it to get all our updates delivered directly to your Facebook feed. Hope to see you there! I guess all that is missing, social media wise, is a Tweeting Rikimaru.
I have started work on a Best of Fan Art Gallery, something to enjoy until the Fan Art section is full restored. So far I have only added 10 pictures to the gallery, but there were way more excellent pieces submitted by our artists submitted. I will add more as I go through my archives. If you have any art requests let me know. Out of the first 10, which ones do you like best? They are all so good, I can’t make up my mind.
goe has written an article about Tenchu: Time of the Assassins. Check it out here.
Shadow Assassin has started to work on the Tenchu: Shadow Assassins walkthroughs, with the first two missions being online.
Some years ago the Japanese Greatest Hits version of Tenchu: Wrath of Heaven featured a making of video. It features interviews with the developers at K2, producer at Activision Japan and the soundtrack composer. Reimaru was so kind to translate it from Japanese to English for us.
Because the entire video is too long for YouTube, I had to split it into two parts. Part 1 is at the top and part 2 at the bottom.
Enjoy!
You might have already seen the ‘YouTube‘ link at the top?! Well, this is because I signed us up 
In the old times we used to host all videos ourselves, which produced quite a lot of download traffic and was very expensive. So this time we are doing it the smart way and host all movies on YouTube for free. A lot of the videos are by nowadays standards ‘low resolution’, so for now I have chosen only a few movies to upload. Movies that I think should be conserved for the time to come, as they have not been uploaded to YouTube yet. Truth be told this is a little difficult to verify as there are a lot of Tenchu videos on YouTube. I will add more movies of interest as I go through my archives or stumble upon them on the internet.
If you have movie or playlist suggestions for our YouTube channel let me know. Either get in touch on YouTube, comment here or email me selenia (at) tenchu . de
The channel name is TenchuCheckpointTV. TenchuCheckpoint was already taken by someone else, though it does not seem to be in use at all. If by any chance you took that channel name, consider signing it over to us please.
Peter S. has collected 300+ missions that were created by our members with the Tenchu 2: Birth of the Stealth Assassins mission editor. All of them work with the UK version and can be downloaded here.
Unfortunately most of the custom missions we used to host were lost during the site hacking accident. If you happen to have some of them on your computer, no matter which country format, consider emailing them to me. Hopefully this way we can restore all the 500+ missions originally on this site.
