Setup's incredibly swingy, dependent pretty much on the performance of a single role: the mafia ninja. If the ninja is never killed, then the town basically has only two roles and is somewhat weak (especially since the psychologist won't be catching the ninja), but if the ninja dies early, then the town is incredibly strong, with only one (non-multitasking) scum who has to deal with three investigative roles (four, technically, but the night after the ninja dies they gain immunity to the psychologist).

My inclination is to agree with Isis; drop the follower, and it's probably closer to the balanced range. Swingy, but closer to 50-50 in the swing imo.
