Naruto Uzumaki's Affiliations

On the right column where it talks about basic info about Naruto where it says Affiliations shouldn't there be Uzushiogakure/Land of Whirlpools since his mother Kushina is from there and why is that bar locked so that you can't edit it. (NamikazeNaruto (talk) 15:53, July 1, 2010 (UTC))

Most powerful technique?

Its is stated in the article that is "second" most powerful technique is Rasengan; What is the First? --75.32.106.59 (talk) 20:12, January 18, 2010 (UTC)

The line is "Rasengan is Naruto's second and strongest signature jutsu". It is not saying Rasengan is his second strongest jutsu, it is saying it is his second signature jutsu, the other being shadow clones. Of the two jutsu, Rasengan is the strongest. ~SnapperTo 22:47, January 18, 2010 (UTC)

What about the RasenShuriken? BlazeUchiha 12:00, April 9, 2010 (UTC)

That came later and is not really a signature due to needing being used while Naruto is in Sage Mode. Otherwise it causes too much damage to his Chakra Network.

Incapacitated

Wasn't he out cold last time we saw him? Jules R. J. Blake (talk) 02:19, January 24, 2010 (UTC)

• Status is for dead or alive, incapacitated is if he would ever be in something like Hidan's position. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 02:22, January 24, 2010 (UTC)

But it's kind of like Tsunade, isn't it? She's in a coma, he's fainted, yet she has the Incapacitated status and he doesn't. Jules R. J. Blake (talk) 02:26, January 24, 2010 (UTC)

"Incapacitated" is ideally reserved for two situations: characters that are out for the long term (Orochimaru, Hidan, Tsunade), or characters whose status is temporarily unclear (Hinata, Kakashi, etc.). Naruto is neither and, as the main character, will likely be up and about the next time he is seen. ~SnapperTo 04:11, January 24, 2010 (UTC)

Besides, he's back now. BlazeUchiha 12:01, April 9, 2010 (UTC)

Flying Swallow

Can someone tell me when Naruto used this technique outside of the anime? Because last time I checked it was listed as an "Anime Only" technique, and I wanna read the chapter where that changes.--Kagimizu-Seeya 'round~ 15:29, January 27, 2010 (UTC)

Here.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 15:34, January 27, 2010 (UTC)

It was when he was training with Kakashi. When Naruto discovered his nature type is wind. He asked Asuma some tips. Flying Swallow is a technique when you use chakra flow on a special blade. Like Asuma's knives. Hope it helps.

Dunno what to do with this pic

Hi, please help me with this one. I got this pic of the first Naruto that Kishi ever drew. It was part of Volume 1 Chapter 2. He used it in an unused Akamaru Jump Magazine that was about demon magic. Can we put this pic in the Creation and Conception article or the Trivia section? Sparxs77 (talk) 21:47, January 27, 2010 (UTC)

Concept art replacing the current Part II Pic...

So guys, I've got a pic of Naruto in Part II that is concept art from the game Naruto Shippuden Narutimate Accel. Since a concept art from Narutimate Accel 2 was used to illustrate Sasuke appearance in Part II, can we do the same with Naruto? It's a higher resolution than the current picture and much better... I'll put the pic up here so you can all take a look...Sparxs77 (talk) 22:47, January 28, 2010 (UTC) thumb|Naruto in Part II

The picture we have is better. It's more neutral and doesn't look unnecessarily distorted. The Sasuke concept art works because it is very neutral, we want a picture to show what he looks like and that works.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 23:25, January 28, 2010 (UTC)

Jonin?

I went back and rewatch naruto shippudeen in english this time, And when they form team kakashi they said nauto, sakura and kakashi are peers of equal level thus kakashi is not there teacher; so do that mean naruto is not a Genin but now a Jonin ? —This unsigned comment was made by 24.98.190.184 (talk • contribs) .

Two hands for Resengan?

Naruto used to use two hands to perform the rasengan but if you look in the recent chapters he can do it with one. He tride to use it against madara....

Family

Should we really list Jiraiya as Naruto's family? --ShounenSuki ^{(talk | contribs)} 12:33, February 23, 2010 (UTC)

I consider my Godfather as close family as my actual father. So I am 100% bias on this.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 12:50, February 23, 2010 (UTC)

You come from a different culture. Godfather is really the wrong title for Jiraiya. The Japanese basically implies nothing more than that Jiraiya was the one to give Naruto his name. It has none of the Christian implications. --ShounenSuki ^{(talk | contribs)} 12:55, February 23, 2010 (UTC)

And I had no idea Godfather had any Christian implications at all. (Though I did always find it odd the name "God" was in it...) Still, I'm completely bias. So I'm gonna wait to see what others thing.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 12:57, February 23, 2010 (UTC)

You... didn't know that? A godparent is someone who sponsors a child's baptism and is responsible for making sure the child is educated properly and has a family, should the child be orphaned.

In return, the godparent is allowed to name the child, or the child is named after the godparent. Hence why Jiraiya's title name-giving parent (名付け親, nazukeoya) is translated as godfather. --ShounenSuki ^{(talk | contribs)} 13:01, February 23, 2010 (UTC)

Nope. Didn't have a clue. Never got that far in the explainations. Was just told as far back as I can remember, he is my Godfather, his wife is my Godmother, and I ended up with at least 2-3 grandmothers. No need to question it any further.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 13:05, February 23, 2010 (UTC)

I'm 100% sure Naruto is based on Japanese culture, so if they don't have godfather in their culture I suggest to remove it. TekkenStorm (talk) 15:07, February 23, 2010 (UTC)

I remember Minato (or was it Kushina) saying that Jiraya given Naruto his name... he is his godfather. So I think they have godparents in the japanese culture. --KiumaruHamachi (talk) 20:41, February 23, 2010 (UTC)KiumaruHamachi

Not exactly, I could have a son or daughter and name he/she after a close friend or cousin, it wouldn't make them a Godparent, and like Shounensuki pointed out it depends on their culture. I mean just cause he was named by Jiraiya doesn't make Jiraiya is Godfather, it depends on whether or not Naruto's parents acknowledged him as such. Also didn't they just say they'd name their child after the character in Jiraiya's book, he didn't technically stand up and give Naruto his name, he simply had an indirect but strong involvement in how the name was decided, though I could be wrong... Anyone wanna add to that?--Awale (talk) 19:54, June 17, 2010 (UTC)

Naruto saves Sakura pic

I think that the pic where Naruto saves Sakura from Sasuke is an important pic. Shouldn't we put the pic in the article Five Kage Summit arc... It is, afterall, the first meeting between Naruto and Sasuke since chapter 309... We've all been waiting for this to happen for ages... Sparxs77 (talk) 08:10, February 27, 2010 (UTC)

I think so too, btw, it's also the first time the original Squad 7 has been in the same place all at once since 300+ chapters ago, I mean seriously, this moment was huge. --WhiteArmor (Talk) 04:54, April 10, 2010 (UTC)

It would be better to have such an image on the Team Kakashi page if anything. I say wait till it's Animated. ¥ Super Novice ↔ Talk ² Me ¥ 04:56, April 10, 2010 (UTC)

please put the rasen shuriken image back because in the current picture with kakuzu we can't see anything of it. --94.183.156.141 (talk) 21:06, March 4, 2010 (UTC)

New Quotation for Naruto?

I just read the new manga chapter today.

And I thought what Naruto said to Sasuke about being first-class ninja, and how they will both die, should really be under Naruto's quotations. It's one of the more moving things he's ever said...

"evil chakra"

would it be worth mentioning that karin saw a very evil chakra inside of naruto? im still confused as to what it is though, is it the nine tails or the power itachi gave to naruto?--Shelldone (talk) 07:57, March 26, 2010 (UTC)

We don't know that; we'll just have to wait and see. ~Hakinu ^{(talk | contribs)} 13:06, March 26, 2010 (UTC)

it is abvious that it is the nine tails—This unsigned comment was made by 68.8.134.27 (talk • contribs) .

It is the nine-tails chakra because why would itachi give naruto a extra chakra when naruto already has lots of chakra that would just be weird. pluse before karin said naruto chakras where bright and warm and that chakra was dark i dont think the nine-tailed fox demons chakra would be warm and bright the fox is a demon so of course it would be the nine-tails chakra!!!

Favourite Phrase

It says that naruto favourite phrase is something to do with food. I REALLY think it should be believe it because i heard like a million times by the time i reached ep.10KDOTKAY88 (talk) 22:00, April 3, 2010 (UTC)

Fourth Shinobi War Arc

The sentence "He remembers when he fought Orochimaru and Pain when he injured Hinata, and says he used the fox's power on purpose because of his rage" makes less sense than the original sentence (the same but without "when he injured hinata") especially concerning the next sentence: "However he injured people like Sakura with it". If it is necessary to note Naruto thinking back about hurting Hinata, I suggest using the old sentence and changing the following sentence to "However he injured people like Sakura and Hinata with it" --Undertaker Sheep (talk) 23:38, April 7, 2010 (UTC)

He never injured Hinata. ¥ Super Novice ↔ Talk ² Me ¥ 23:40, April 7, 2010 (UTC)

Oh right, I didn't think about that. Well then I guess the entire revision of that sentence was pointless to begin with--Undertaker Sheep (talk) 23:44, April 7, 2010 (UTC)

Just for my reference, where do you get the different arc titles? Is this something your getting from the manga, or just making up? I'm just curious because the summary for the fourth shinobi war arc seems to be getting rather long, compared to the others. Wouldn't a new arc have started when they were sent to the island or something?--Gamebrain89 (talk) 04:13, May 23, 2010 (UTC)

Arcs' beginning and ending are open to interpretation, and the current interpretation is that the [current] arc started after Sasuke and Naruto parted ways. The summary has merely gotten long. ~SnapperTo 04:35, May 23, 2010 (UTC)

Makes sense I guess. I think the beginning of their stay on the island seems like a logical point for the beginning of a new arc, but as you said, open to interpretation. Thanks for the answer.--Gamebrain89 (talk) 04:50, May 23, 2010 (UTC)

The Fourth War arc, as it is currently being defined, starts a chapter or two before the island. We're mostly in tune with your logic. ~SnapperTo 04:59, May 23, 2010 (UTC)

Grammar

Who ever keeps on putting the word in the The Fourth Great Shinobi War section as prophesizes, that's incorrect, it's prophesies, --WhiteArmor (Talk) 03:01, April 9, 2010 (UTC)

Someone should really fix the last paragraph in the Hidan and Kakuzu arc summary. That whole paragraph is a grammer nightmare. It should be changed to something like "While devestating to his opponents, the technique also damages the users chakra pathways at the point of contact, risking his future as a ninja." or something to that effect. I cringed when I read what was there.--Gamebrain89 (talk) 01:06, April 22, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, you mean the part where he starts to tranform and Fukasaku has to hit him with the magic sage baton thing. --WhiteArmor (Talk)

yeah that kind of eye but there is a part when he was under the waterfall and hes both eyes where like that if someone add that its would help people get the process of the sage training easier --Petar93 (talk) 01:16, April 10, 2010 (UTC)

stats

Naruto's stats are little weird. How can Sakura's and Naruto's stats be the same -He is a lot stronger than her. I suppose this is true (I haven't read the databook)? Ttogafer (talk) 18:22, April 24, 2010 (UTC)

It doesnt matter how high his stats are, after all, hes the main character of the show (otherwise, theres no way he would have been able to defeat Kakuzu and Pain)...not to mention the stats dont count for the special features of a character's ability, Naruto's endless chakra supply, ability to master high level jutsu in 1/1000 the time it normaly takes, and the fact he can use the nine-tail fox as a backup and somehow get out of it convenietly--Silverblade1 (talk) 19:21, April 24, 2010 (UTC)

The third databook is quite old, everyone has grown since - especially Naruto. It will probably rocket when the 4th one comes out Sanders-sama (talk) 07:05, April 27, 2010 (UTC)

i dont get it....?!

i dont get what naruto means when in manga chapter 488 page 12 at onemanga.com how naruto said he has no plans to protect sasuke and then kiba says "You still shouldnt have just let him get away! naruto... your strong your the hero who defeated pain! Sasuke should be no problem and then naruto said " thats not true.. i wouldnt have been able to defeat him i knew that much" and then naruto thinks of sasuke and sasuke looks evil and it says "inside him" i dont get why naruto wouldnt of been able to defeat sasuke??? please tell me... im quite dumb hehe thanks!!

It may of been Naruto wouldn't of been able to bring himself to beat him as Sasuke at the time was going blind and pretty weak from his previous fights. He probably feels that if he wants to really defeat Sasuke they both need to be at full strength, or something like that. Prophet of Sanghelios (talk) 08:36, April 27, 2010 (UTC)

Naruto stats should...must be way over that. He possesses senjutsu, and like Fukasaku said, there are just a few who can possess it. His huge, enormous own chakra + senjustsu's one, and his phisical stamina makes him extrimely tough. And what about Rasen Shuriken? Maybe the stats affect only really own skills, but Kyuubi is part of Naruto and together - they are immortal, that is. Sasuke, the pit, would be nothing w/o his sharingan, cursed seal, and itachi's "gift". According to me Naruto stats should be at least 36 - higher than anyone's else. Even w/o Kyuubi(but this isn't fair)he should be equal to Kakuzu, Deidara, Hidan, Tsunade, Sasuke and almost equal to Kakashi, Sasori, Kisame, Killer Bee, Orochimaru, Jiraiya, Itachi(because these ones are the strongest imo).

Dissapointed in the lack of Naruto PICS!!

OK, I may be over my head in this!! I'm dissapointed in this Naruto Wiki... I've been saying quite a few times that more pics deserved to be added to this site... Look at the Bleach Wiki. Look at Ichigo's page and you'll see lots of pics just in ONE section!! Look at Luffy's page on the One Piece Wiki!! PICS DELUXE!! And look at Naruto's page... I mean come on... Even Sasuke's page has more pics in!! Now I know everyone isn't the biggest Naruto (the character himself) fan, but he's still the main charater!! I added the "Naruto pushing Sakura away" pic and it was deleted. Naruto saving Sakura from Sasuke was probably the most exciting thing that happened (due to the fact that Team 7 was reunited) in recent chapters and THAT pic isn't inserted!! The new "Fourth Shinobi War" section doesn't even have ANY pics... Like I said, I'm perhaps over my head in this... I just wanted to have my say... Hopefully some will support me in this...Sparxs77 (talk) 13:28, May 11, 2010 (UTC)

Both of those examples are ridiculously long, Luffy's article in particular. Twenty images in one section works there. Adding multiple images in Naruto's article quickly gets crowded. ~SnapperTo 18:55, May 11, 2010 (UTC)

And Luffy's page alone had to be broken up into sections with different articels such as Personality, Abilties, etc. And that's because of the pics and information alone. --KiumaruHamachi (talk) 19:42, May 11, 2010 (UTC)KiumaruHamachi

And just to air a personal gripe: Ichigo's article has been restricted to sysop editing [for four months] so that more detail can be added. Perhaps I'm in the minority, but I cannot bring myself to read through what is already there. I'd just assume read the entire manga instead of reading whatever that article will be when all of the missing details are added. ~SnapperTo 21:50, May 11, 2010 (UTC)

not in the minority... i don't even help with templates there cause they are so "strict" need to ask permission for every single edit, even edits that just neaten up code. - SimAnt 22:02, May 11, 2010 (UTC)

Theoretically, I could use my sysop power to open the Ichigo page. But I doubt I have the clout to do it. I mean, I made the site then kinda gave it to others to run....--TheUltimate3 (talk) 22:38, May 11, 2010 (UTC)

I just had to get that off my heart...Sparxs77 (talk) 07:46, May 13, 2010 (UTC)

Umm, I was wondering, shouldn't we update the profile pic? I've seen a lot of articles where the characters retain their "Original series" appearance eg. Naruto and Sasuke. We could put those pics in the article itself like "Naruto in Part I" or something like that. Thoughts? BlazeUchiha (Talk) 13:18, May 28, 2010 (UTC)

Agreed. I think we should keep one page, but just update the pictures!!!Thank you taking time to listen to my post! 17:42, May 28, 2010 (UTC)!!

Jutsu Cataloging

Shouldn't Typhoon Water Vortex Technique be under Collaboration Jutsu since it was used by both Naruto and Yamato? (despite only being used once so far)Questionaredude (talk) 23:11, May 23, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, thanks for moving that subject since I recently added this to the article, and some smartass deleted it. Even though it's called a collaboration ninjutsu in its own article. Xfing (talk) 23:15, May 23, 2010 (UTC)

I'm the one who removed it. It was rather poorly written. And since the collaboration ninjutsu that was given focus in the anime was the one with the frogs, it makes sense for that to be the focus. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 23:18, May 23, 2010 (UTC)

And I'd say it makes sense to include techniques that adhere to their definitions. If you disagree, then delete the mentions of this technique from its own and the Collaboration Ninjutsu articles. Xfing (talk) 23:21, May 23, 2010 (UTC)

I don't oppose the mention being there, it's my opinion for the focus to be on the frog collaboration, since that was the big thing in the anime, I just removed what you added because the quality was lacking. The content was there, but it didn't feel encyclopedic. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 23:25, May 23, 2010 (UTC)

Physical and taijutsu skills

it also should be noted that naruto beat neji basically with a single uppercut. Also in the movie land of the snow he held his own, and was able to do backhand springs to avoid attacks. It should also be noted in the crescent moon movie he held his own, in taijutsu against the genjutsu ninja. Also dont forget the fights with sasuke. His taijutsu skill was pretty good there too.

Naruto Demon stages

I think the stages of naruto's transformation should be listed and a picture to show it.

Naruto's new techniques

I think these two new attacks should be added, they came from the new manga chapter.

1) Sage Art - Gargantuan Rasengan (http://mangastream.com/read/naruto/69878488/6)

2) Wind Element - Wind Spiral Shuriken (http://mangastream.com/read/naruto/69878488/11)—This unsigned comment was made by 76.235.7.222 (talk • contribs) .

Those aren't new, their just translated differently.--Deva 27 (talk) 00:35, June 5, 2010 (UTC)

I can maybe understand the Gargantuan Rasengan being translated differently (I don't actually know), but it seems the wind spiral shuriken is a completely new technique. —This unsigned comment was made by 76.235.7.222 (talk • contribs) .

It's Wind Release: Rasenshuriken. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 01:18, June 5, 2010 (UTC)

You'll notice it even says Rasenshuriken along the side of the panel. Why they couldn't do that with the Rasengan too is a mystery.

As an aside, SleepyFans "confirms" that it's the Chō blah blah Rasengan, if that matters. ~SnapperTo 01:55, June 5, 2010 (UTC)

Well, this is fun...

Just for an overview, I made a little list of all the Great Ball Rasengan variations that now exist.

In chapter 260, Naruto used Great Ball Rasengan (大玉螺旋丸, Ōdama Rasengan) against Itachi's double.

In chapter 377, Jiraiya used Super Great Ball Rasengan (超大玉螺旋丸, Chōōdama Rasengan) against Preta Realm.

In chapter 431, Naruto used Sage Art: Great Ball Rasengan (仙法・大玉螺旋丸, Senpō: Ōdama Rasengan) against the Pain summons.

In chapter 497, Naruto used Sage Art: Super Great Ball Rasengan (仙法・超大玉螺旋丸, Senpō: Chōōdama Rasengan) against the Nine-Tails.

Don't ask me what the difference between them is. I'm not even sure if there is one, any more...

The other technique is the normal Wind Release: Rasenshuriken, by the way. --ShounenSuki ^{(talk | contribs)} 05:40, June 5, 2010 (UTC)

But, technically speaking, Super Great Ball Rasengan is already of the "Sage Art" variety, just not in name. Potential retcon, à la Gamatora? ~SnapperTo 18:19, June 5, 2010 (UTC)

Possibly, but they might also be subtle variations of each other. It could also be a simple mistake, as is also the possibility with Gamatora's name. The next databook should clear this up, I'd say. 2011 isn't that far away... —ShounenSuki ^{(talk | contribs)} 23:56, June 5, 2010 (UTC)

I want to know what power did Itachi give to naruto through the crow? I agree its not chakra so it has to be some sort of ninjutsu or genjutsu...?Daikari (talk) 23:48, June 8, 2010 (UTC)

If we knew, we would write it in Naruto's article. Jacce | Talk | Contributions 04:08, June 9, 2010 (UTC)

Kanji on Naruto's palm

When Naruto was caught in Itachi's ephemeral in shippuden episode#13-14 and he tries to dispell it, a kanji is shown on his palm. I would like to know what it means and I think it should be added to naruto's apearance in part 2 since I did not saw that kanji on his palm in part 1.--Tanay009 (talk) 09:49, June 10, 2010 (UTC)nine

That was Gaara's tattoo. ~SnapperTo 16:56, June 10, 2010 (UTC)

Picture

The picture in the character template shouldn't they be new or recent like from Shippunden? --Cococrash11 (talk) 05:02, June 11, 2010 (UTC)Cococrash11

Collaboration Jutsu

Why is this on the abilities section if its anime only? shouldn't it be said in the article that it is? Narutosagemaster (talk) 05:10, June 13, 2010 (UTC)

Sage Mode Clone Limitations

Hey though I could be wrong and this is speculation but, this comment could be wrong; "However, during his battle with the Nine-Tails to master its power, Naruto had many shadow clones in Sage Mode. However, this could simply be because it is going on within his subconscious."

It's the last paragraph on Naruto's sage mode in the abilities section, the reason it sounds wrong is cos;

1. Naruto's clone numbers had to be limited in Sage Mode while he fought Pain because it could disrupt the clones gathering natural energy at Mount Myoboku.

2. During his fight with the fox, though this is pure speculation he wasn't using this clone method to gather natural energy meaning he wouldn't need to limit the number clones he has in Sage Mode.

So technically speaking, from the very beginning if Naruto hadn't pulled that "clones gathering natural energy trick at Myoboku" trick, he should; "in theory" have been capable of using as much clones as he always did throughout the manga and series, cos there're no clones to disrupt.... Though I could be wrong. Please comment on this thesis, you're input is valuable no matter who you are...--Awale (talk) 19:46, June 17, 2010 (UTC)

I also tought 'bout this and you're right. Naruto's use of clones is limited only when he's got other clones gathering Senjutsu chakra. Normally, he can produce hundreds of 'em even if he's in Sage Mode. Art-is-a-blast (talk) 21:10, June 18, 2010 (UTC)

Exactly! So I guess we should remove that limit comment on his sage mode...--Awale (talk) 11:46, June 19, 2010 (UTC)

No naruto does have a limit,geezer sage explained to shima during naruto vs pain that naruto can only make so many clones at his current level because he had to devide the sage chakra in equal parts therefore loosing sage mode if divided in to many clones. ~ Unregistered user~~ june 28~

New Appearance/Connection to Rikudō Sennin

We should probably add a new section on how Naruto's "new" seal looks. Something particularly interesting to note is that there is a pattern of magatama (tomoe-like shapes) around the base of Naruto's neck, just like the one the Rikudō Sennin (Sage of Six Paths) and Pain's Deva Path both have. Also, the Kyubi no Kitsune mutters in confusion, "What?...Rikudo?" when Naruto uses a strange technique to bind him after absorbing his power (Remember that Rikudō Sennin was the first jinchuriki, of the Ten-Tails no less, so it would make sense that he could also have somedegree of influence over the Nine-Tails). Combined with the fact that Naruto is also a sage, this could point to a strong connection between Naruto and Rikudō Sennin. --67.125.135.116 (talk) 17:03, June 20, 2010 (UTC)

Way too much speculation. All that can be said is already there. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 17:25, June 20, 2010 (UTC)

Chakra

When we say Naruto has wast chakra supplies we mean on the fox, but my question is, does Naruto have strong and massive chakra without his beast, or is he like an ordinary ninja then? Ttogafer (talk) 14:32, June 28, 2010 (UTC)

Naruto's chakra reserves have always been stated to be very large, without the influence of the fox. This is stated multiple times and according to Fukasaku, only those who already possess "extreme chakra levels ... specifically Jiraiya and Naruto" can utilize natural energies to invoke senjutsu. --Hardly worth the effort. 11:20, July 1, 2010 (UTC)

Extended Family

Doesn't Naruto have Senju blood since kushina said the whirlpool had some senju blood?
