NINJA WARRIOR

What this record means

The record shows that “NINJA WARRIOR” is an abandoned application – the USPTO marked it dead after the owner, TOKYO BROADCASTING SYSTEM TELEVISION, INC., failed to file a required Statement of Use or an extension after the Notice of Allowance was issued, with the abandonment dated June 29 2015. The filing covered only clothing (class 025), listing items such as shirts, jackets, shoes, swimwear and other apparel for men, women and children. Because the protection was limited to those apparel goods, a similar name used on unrelated products would present a much farther concern, while another clothing line using the same wording would be the closest area of record‑based risk. The record does not give the owner any control over every possible use of “NINJA WARRIOR,” and it is not on the Supplemental Register, so there is no supplemental‑register examination sequence to note. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to brand clothing with the same name, but the risk is far lower for non‑apparel goods.
