Naruto is home to an array of loved characters, but it also features a few figures that fans despise. Here are some of the most hateable of the bunch.
Masashi Kishimoto should have made a Naruto prequel instead of a sequel, and here is why.
Martial artists in anime have often mastered their bodies, but fewer have mastered their minds. These are the most intelligent fighters in anime.
Sarada has just revealed the Ohirume (Sun Goddess) technique. But Amaterasu jutsu is also named after the Japanese Sun goddess. What does that mean?
These characters fall through the cracks and out of relevancy in Naruto.
Naruto is legendary for its action sequences, but these arc in particular features some of the series best fights and animation.
Naruto fans want to know why Orochimaru was spared by the Hidden Leaf.
At first, it seemed like these characters would be Naruto's sworn enemies, but they ended up becoming close friends.
Naruto is one of the most powerful shinobi in the world, but even he can’t do these things that come naturally to his father, Minato.
Kishimoto already made a one shot for Minato. He plans to make an Itachi one next in Naruto.
Boruto Uzumaki's inspiration has been revealed. This might surprise some fans.
Jiraiya was a bad teacher to Naruto.
The Pain arc was major for the Naruto series. Kishimoto reveals a huge difficulty he experienced after this arc.
Drawing Naruto was no easy task. Kishimoto reveals which arc was the most challenging to illustrate.
Considering the rich history of the Senju clan, Nawaki was really a let-down.
While cool in concept, the eight inner gates utilized by characters like Rock Lee and Might Guy were severely underused as the series went on.
Minato was the 4th Hokage. There were other contenders for that position in Naruto.
The Naruto series has featured some truly unforgettable deaths, but some have arguably been much more impactful than others.
The Rasengan and the Chidori are tied to each other. These two are the most important techniques in Naruto.
The first Hokage, Hashirama Senju, was a powerhouse. He was, however, surpassed by many ninjas in Naruto.
