Revision as of 11:10, 17 July 2015

"Genin Takedown! All Nine Rookies Face Off!" (蹴散らせライバル!新人9人全員集合, Kechirase Raibaru! Rūkī Nain Zenin Shūgō) is episode 23 of the original Naruto anime.

Synopsis

Kakashi meets up with Team 7 before they enter the hall of the Chūnin Exams. He informs them that unless they had all consented to take the exams, none of them would have been permitted to enter. With that, he wishes them good luck. Within the hall, the Rookie Nine meet up and have a spirited discussion. Kabuto Yakushi warns them to quiet down as they are seemingly irritating the shinobi around them. Explaining the exams further, Kabuto uses his Ninja Info Cards to give Sasuke information on Gaara and Rock Lee. Kabuto says that the individuals taking the exams are all most likely elites from their respective villages, a fact that intimidates the rookies. With his standard enthusiasm, Naruto loudly proclaims that he wont lose to anyone, and the rest of the room reacts to his words with equal parts shock and annoyance. Insulted by Kabuto's earlier detailing of the villages in which he discarded Otogakure as a minor village, three Oto-nin attack Kabuto. Although it appears that Kabuto dodged the attack, his glasses suddenly break and he becomes nauseated despite not being hit. Before things can escalate any further, the proctor, Ibiki Morino, and his team appear on the scene. With that, the Chūnin Exams begin.

Trivia

Despite the villages of Kumogakure and Kirigakure having no genin participate, several candidates are shown wearing forehead protectors from these villages. These are shown when Neji is talking with Lee about Naruto (the far middle-left) and when Sakura is strangling Naruto.

 == Synopsis ==
-As [[Kakashi Hatake]] meets up with his [[Team Kakashi|team]] before they enter the Chūnin Exams hall, he informs them that unless they had all consented to do the exam, they would not have been permitted to take the exam. With that, he wishes them well before departing. Within the hall itself, the [[Rookie Nine]] meet up and after apparently getting carried away, [[Kabuto Yakushi]] warns them to quiet down as they were seemingly irritating the [[shinobi]] around them. Explaining the exams further, Kabuto uses his [[Ninja Info Cards]] to give [[Sasuke Uchiha]] information on [[Gaara]] and [[Rock Lee]]. Worrying the Rookie Nine a little with information that the individuals taking the exams were all most likely elites from their respective villages, they are spurred on by [[Naruto Uzumaki]] who announces his presence to the rest of the room which is received with annoyance and shock by the other shinobi in the room. Insulted by Kabuto's earlier detailing of the villages who were participating in the exams and how he had discarded [[Otogakure]] as a minor village, [[Team Dosu|three Oto-nin]] attack Kabuto who seemingly dodges the attack only to have his glasses broken and then experience nausea from the attack. Before things could escalate any further, however, [[Ibiki]] and his team appear on the scene. With that, the Chūnin Exams begin.
