Batman Ninja (ニンジャバットマン, Ninja Batman) is a 2018 American-Japanese animated superhero film directed by Junpei Mizusaki, produced by Warner Bros., and animated by Kamikaze Douga and YamatoWorks, which features the DC Comics character Batman and several of his allies and enemies who end up time-traveling to feudal Japan. Takashi Okazaki, the creator of Afro Samurai, was the character designer for the film.

The film was released in the United States in digital format on April 24, 2018: it was released in physical formats on May 8 and was released theatrically in Japan on June 15. In its American release, writers Leo Chu and Eric Garcia rewrote the film from the original Japanese script written by Kazuki Nakashima, ultimately making two very different versions of the same film.

This was one of the posthumous releases for longtime DC producer Benjamin Melniker, who died two months before its release.

A sequel, Batman Ninja vs. Yakuza League, released on March 18, 2025.
