Watch the first two Ninja Warrior Junior episodes right here

American Ninja Warrior Junior debuted on October 13. That meant we finally got to see what these kids have to offer and yes, they delivered big time. We had a hunch we’d be seeing the Ninjas tear up the course and deliver heart-pounding finishes. We were right.

The first two episodes of the qualifying round are in the bag. Kids in the 9-10, 11-12, and 13-14 age ranges took part in a head to head, tournament style competition. Over the course of five races for each age bracket, the field was whittled down to one semi-finalist Ninja each. They’re working towards a shot at the $15,000 grand prize.

If you missed the episodes, or you don’t have access to Universal Kids, you’re totally in luck. Both episodes have been released on YouTube in their entireties. We’ve included the episodes below, along with a breakdown of the results.
