English Name: Eight Trigrams One Hundred Twenty-Eight Palms
Used By: Hyuuga Neji
Description: Hakke Hyaku Nijūhachi Shō is an advancement of the Hakke Rokujūyon Shō (Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms). Hakke Hyaku Nijūhachi Shō is first used by Hyūga Neji to protect himself from the Amagumo (Rain of Spiders) released from Kidōmaru's Spider Summoning. Presumably, this technique would strike each of the special 64 Tenketsu (chakra holes) twice when directed at a single, humanoid opponent, an even more devastating blow than the Sixty-Four Palms. The attacks in this technique are clearly executed at a much higher speed than the Sixty-Four Palms, making it even more dangerous. Upon witnessing this technique Kidōmaru notes that "If I take a direct hit from that [the One Hundred Twenty-Eight Palms], I'm finished."

Japanese Name: Hakke Kusho
English Name: Eight Trigrams Empty Palm

Japanese Name: Hakke Rokujuyon Sho
English Name: Eight Trigrams Sixty-four Palms
Used By: Hyuuga Neji
Description: A very advanced Gentle Fist Style technique, the user must be able to see the Chakra holes (tenketsu, "pressure points") of the opponent and execute it with incredible dexterity and precision in order for it to be effective. In a series of two heavy strikes, followed by two more, followed by four, followed by eight, followed by sixteen, followed by a dazzling thirty-two consecutive pinpoint-precision strikes, this jutsu closes 64 of the 361 tenketsu of the opponent completely. The last of the sixty-four strikes appears to be a blow with the full, open hand, rather than the fingertips of the index and middle fingers. The end result is a victim with disrupted chakra flow, making it very problematic to stay standing up and impossible to execute jutsu, unless an alternate chakra source is available, which is exceedingly rare and has only been demonstrated thus far in people containing a Bijū (Tail Beast). This jutsu is passed down in the Hyūga main house, but it is theoretically possible to figure it out on one's own if one is talented and insightful enough to do so (Hyūga Neji being the only known example). In the anime, Neji has developed an enhancement, Hakke Hyaku Nijūha Shō ("Eight Trigrams One Hundred Twenty-Eight Palms"), which essentially means a doubled attack speed and doubled capability.

Japanese Name: Hakke Sanbyaku Rokujuisshiki
English Name: Eight Trigrams Three-Hundred Sixty-One Palms
Used By: Hyuuga Neji
Description: The Hyūga clans most powerful jutsu making it forbidden for normal Hyūga clan members to be taught, this technique would strike each of the special 361 Tenketsu (chakra holes) directed at a single, humanoid opponent, instantly killing the opponent with the final blow. To perform this attack, the user has to concentrate all of his/her chakra chakra into the two palms of his/her hands to make sure every strike hits every Tenketsu precisely, thus immobilizing the opponent with every hit. The attacks in this technique are executed with speed that could match the Extreme Lotus's.

Description: A greater more powerful version of the Hakkesho Kaiten, it has a larger amount of chakra expelled from the whole body resulting in a bigger burst of chakra around the user, thus pushing back any object it stops further away violently. Hakkeshō Daikaiten is a jutsu used only in the Naruto games by Hyūga Neji and Hyūga Hiashi, therefore it's generally not seen as canon. It was first shown in the video game Naruto: Narutimate Hero, as Neji's second phase for his Level 1 Ōgi.

Japanese Name: Hakkesho Kaiten
English Name: Eight Trigram Palms Heavenly Spin
Used By: Hyuuga Neji, Hyuuga Hiashi
Description: A very advanced Taijutsu passed down in the Hyūga main house, it uses a solid amount of chakra expelled from the whole body - as opposed to imprecise bursts from only specific parts of the body, which is the most even your typical Jōnin can manage - to stop any attack in its tracks, then push it back with equal force, making it a very efficient defense and also making it possible to use it as an offense. Despite it being a secret jutsu passed only in the Hyūga main house, Hyūga Neji of the Branch house mastered it without any training or information of the technique from the Main house, but rather discovered the technique himself and trained with his teammate Tenten, a weapons specialist, to perfect it, which is a sure testimony to his genius.

English Name: Initial Lotus
Used By: Rock Lee
Description: This technique puts a lot of strain on the user's muscle fibers, and is basically a suicidal attack. Normally, humans use the power of their muscles at only about 20 percent of its full power; the brain regulates muscle usage to ensure this, since any higher and the muscles will be damaged or destroyed.

The result is a much more powerful brand of Taijutsu than normal, but at the cost of damage to the user.

Used By: Uchiha Members, Kakashi
Description: Available only to those who possess the Sharingan and its most famous ability, the user's natural 'watch and learn' ability is boosted to inhumane accuracy, enabling them to see, imitate, register and memorise any movement almost perfectly. This enables Sharingan users to use any technique they have watched with the Sharingan later, given that they have all the required parameters to perform the jutsu (such as chakra control, physical fitness or an advanced bloodline); the sharingan isn't a magic shortcut around anything but the process of learning.

Japanese Name: Sharingan (Hypnosis)
English Name: Sharingan(Hypnosis)
Used By: Uchiha Members, Kakashi
Description: Available only to those who possess the Sharingan, it hypnotises the opponent and lets the user suggest thoughts and actions to them. The user often follows a successful hypnosis with constant mimicry of the opponent's movements and speaking out their thoughts in perfect synch, which they are able to do since they are the ones suggesting those movements and thoughts in the first place; this greatly bewilders the opponent and makes it appear as if the user can see the future.

Description: This Jutsu allows the user to enter a target's mind, taking control of their body and senses. Normally a spying Jutsu, it can also be used in battle although with many drawbacks. The spiritual energy travels very slowly making it easy to dodge; If this happens, the user's body will be left as an empty vessel for a few minutes, leaving it wide open to attack- and even if the Jutsu does work, any damage that is caused to the target will also be inflicted upon the user's original body. This Jutsu can only be maintained for about five minutes before the user is forced to retract their spiritual energy back to their original body.

Japanese Name: Shishi Rendan
English Name: Barrage of Lions
Used By: Uchiha Sasuke
Description: The result of Uchiha Sasuke copying Rock Lee's similar combo.

The user can emit constant beams of chakra from their hands or shoot short streams, and hit even a large amount of very small targets with extremely high speed and precision, akin to Hakke Rokujūyon Shō (but obviously with longer range). With enough skill at destroying incoming threats, or alternatively sufficient power, speed and flexibility put into a large amount of arc-shaped beams, it is also possible to create an "absolute defense" effect similar to that of Hakkeshō Kaiten.

Japanese Name: Souja Sousai no Jutsu
English Name: Twin Snake Assassination Technique
Used By: Anko
Description: A forbidden jutsu which is a murder-suicide attack- killing both the user and the target.

Japanese Name: Suiken
English Name: Drunken Fist
Used By: Rock Lee
Description: An unusual style of taijutsu combat where the user takes in enough alcohol to become intoxicated (hence the name), causing them to become unpredictable and highly dangerous. Suiken is not a fighting style that one can learn or train in, nor is it a bloodline limit, but more of a natural talent that one is born with. By taking even a sip of alcohol, Lee goes berserk and it takes the force of his instructor and teamates to stop him.

Japanese Name: Suiton: Daibakufu no Jutsu
English Name: Water Element: Grand Waterfall Skill
Used By:

Japanese Name: Suiton: Souja Sousai no Jutsu
English Name: Water Element: Water Prison Technique
Used By: Momochi Zabuza
Description: A move used to trap the victim inside a virtually inescapable prison of water.

Used By: Gamabunta

Japanese Name: Suna no Tate
English Name: Shield of Sand
Used By: Gaara
Description: Regardless of their own will, this jutsu automatically surrounds and protects the body and surounding area of the person it was performed on. Capable of withstanding considerably strong attacks and projectiles, this Sand Shield is stronger than steel. Though one (and perhaps the only) way it can be defeated is with extremely high speed attacks, all other attacks are rendered useless.

Japanese Name: Suna no Yoroi
English Name: Armor of Sand
Used By: Gaara
Description: This jutsu uses chakra to cover the user with a thin, but dense, layer of protective sand. While a good defense, it puts an unignorable burden on the user's stamina, both through chakra absorption and the fact that the sand makes them heavier and hampers their movement.

Japanese Name: Suzu Senbon no Genkaku
English Name: Illusion Bell Needles
Used By: Kin Tsuchi
Description: Technique which uses special bells attached to throwing needles. The bells ring at a certain frequency and the sound directly affects the brain. This is able to disorient the opponent and create various illusions (has a random D-Rank Genjutsu effect).

Japanese Name: Tanuki Neiri no Jutsu
English Name: Forced Sleep Technique
Used By: Gaara
Description: Gaara uses this to completely manifest the Shukaku. The Shukaku's nature prevents it from attaining its true power when the "medium" is awake. Gaara uses this technique to allow the Shukaku to come all the way out. It is necessary because of the chronic insomnia that the medium eventually develops because the Shukaku eats his/her personality when he/she sleeps.

Japanese Name: Tarenken

Japanese Name: Toton no Jutsu
English Name: Transparent Escape Technique
Used By: Jiraiya
Description: The ultimate peeking technique developed by Jiraiya when he was still a student under the Sandaime Hokage. The trick is that Jiraiya is actually able to escape from feminine bathhouses unheard and unseen, but it appears to be ineffective against his longtime female companion Tsunade. It is unknown what this jutsu actually does, but it probably makes him invisible to the human eye. Besides its use for peeping, it is also very useful for Jiraiya's espionage activities. When about to be caught, this jutsu also allows for him to escape the area without a trace.

Japanese Name: Tsubaki no Mai
English Name: Dance of the Camellia
Used By: Kimimaro
Description: Performed when a member of the Kaguya clan pulls out a bone from his arm and uses it as a sword. The quick movements of the blade and slicing technique make this a formidable dance. It can make short work of a large number of people quickly.

Japanese Name: Tsukuyomi
English Name: Moon Reader
Used By: Uchiha Itachi
Description: Named after the Shinto god of the moon, this Genjutsu is one of the most powerful Uchiha jutsu enabled by the Mangekyō Sharingan. The Mangekyō user places the victim in an illusory world where all aspects, including the perception of time, are controlled by the user. Uchiha Itachi uses this ability to inflict three days' worth of torment on his victims , while in reality only three seconds may have passed, which tends to leave the victim bedridden. However, Tsukuyomi is an enormous chakra drain on the user, which discourages its frequent use. Itachi is seemingly only able to use it for the equivalent of three days maximum.

Japanese Name: Tsutenkyaku
English Name: Painful Sky Leg
Used By: Tsunade
Description: This is basically just a kick down from the air, where Tsunade uses her marvellous strength to create a crater.



Japanese Name: Ura Renge
English Name: Extreme Lotus
Used By: Rock Lee
Description: This advanced, more destructive version of the Renge requires the opening of at least the Third Gate (Life Gate), with a correspondingly higher cost to the user. Once the third gate is open, the user can then use Ura Renge by launching the target into the air and hitting them with one arm and foot, sending the target crashing into the ground, typically killing them. When Rock Lee used this move, he also opened the Fourth and Fifth Gates to grant him extra strength and speed, however, this is not required to perform Ura Renge.

Japanese Name: Utakata
English Name: Ephemeral Vengeance
Used By: Kagero
Description: The user creates four firefly-like Chakra wings and fires out powerful energy blast from them. Is said that this jutsu can be used only once in a life time, since it consumes so much Chakra that the user is left in a near death state after performing it.

Japanese Name: Uzumaki Naruto Rendan
English Name: Uzumaki Naruto Barrage
Used By: Uzumaki Naruto
Description: Naruto does not possess the Sharingan, but he can still watch and learn, and that is what he did in this case.

Japanese Name: Yanagi no Mai
English Name: Dance of the Willow
Used By: Kimimaro
Description: To perform this dance the Kaguya clan member has long bones come out from the palms of his hands to be used as stabbing swords. The blades are fairly long and are very strong. The clan can use both of these bone hand blades to stab, slice or impale their opponent. With quick movements and jabs this is a formidable dance.

Japanese Name: Yoraishin
English Name: God of Night Lightning
Used By: Gosunkugi
Description: An odd jutsu involving nails. The user throws nails into the air. Upon impact on the ground, they dig themselves into the earth. When the opponent walks over the ground where the nails dug themselves in, two nails stab out of the earth through the feet of the attacker, ensuring that they cannot move.

NARUTOPEDIA




Academy Student : A ninja in training, learning the roles as ninja and basic skills, such as problem solving, reading and basic jutsus.

Akatsuki : Akatsuki (暁, meaning "Dawn," or "Daybreak") is a criminal organization which is first introduced midway into the first arc; it gains greater significance in the storyline during the second arc. Despite its small size (it consists of nine S-class wanted criminals), the Akatsuki is extremely influential due to its potency, which is due in no small part to its elite membership. The exact criteria for admission to the group are unknown, but extraordinary fighting ability and deadly ruthlessness seems to be prerequisites; the rings worn by the members seem to have a significance in the process of joining. It has been speculated by fans that in order to join the Akatsuki one must break away past relations (this explanation explains Uchiha Itachi's wholesale slaughter of his clan: he had to kill them to not merely prove himself a strong fighter, but also to sever his previous connection). The members of Akatsuki who wear village headbands have struck a line through the village symbol on the plate, supporting the hypothesis further.

ANBU : (ANBU, literally "Dark side") ANBU stands for Ansatsu Senjutsu Tokushu Butai, translated into English, it roughly means "Assassination Tactics Special Squad". The ANBU, known in the Viz translation as "Black Ops", is not a rank but a force of extremely talented shinobi of Chunin rank or higher who are chosen for assassinations, for village protection from exceptional threats (somewhat akin to deploying SWAT units), for conducting high-risk missions into enemy countries, and for dealing with extremely strong (S-Rank) ninja. They wear animal masks to distinguish themselves from normal shinobi, as well as to conceal their identities. The ANBU carry swords; this is somewhat unique in that Naruto, although it is a ninja manga, has very few swords. The ANBU is an organization that is under the direct command of the Kage. Hatake Kakashi was a former member and Uchiha Itachi became an ANBU captain at age 13. Morino Ibiki, the proctor of the first Chūnin exam, is the head of the Konoha ANBU Torture and Interrogation Force.



Chakra : Physical and spiritual energys combined to perform ninja techniques.

Chuunin : Chuunin is the middle class of ninja. While expected to have combat skills worthy of their station, what sets them apart from Genin is their demonstration of leadership skills. Every six months, an exam is held to determine who among the participating Genin are worthy of the rank Chuunin. Many ninja will never advance from this rank, as it takes great combat skill to become a Jounin. The teachers at the ninja academy are generally Chuunin.



Exploding Note : A scroll which explodes after a few seconds and bursts into flames.



Forehead Protector : A token which proves that the person has graduated from the academy, the insignia on the protector shows which village the ninja is from.



Genin : The first rank of ninja, who are still grasping the basis of shinobi work. Do D and C missions, like planting flowers or bodyguarding someone from thugs and mafia.

GenJutsu : Genjutsu ("Illusion Techniques") are techniques that use the chakra in the victim's nervous system to create illusions; an advanced intellectual Ninjutsu. Genjutsu techniques are notably easier to execute and counter for users of high intelligence, like Nara Shikamaru, good chakra controllers like Haruno Sakura, and Sharingan users like Uchiha Sasuke. The most commonly seen Genjutsu is simple creation of phantasms that cause the targeted person to hear, see, smell, taste and feel things that are not actually there in order to manipulate them; other applications of Genjutsu are rare.



Hand Seal : Where the user creates shapes with his hands and also mix chakra to execute a certain technique.

Hokage : The most powerful shinobi in Konoha. Translates literally to "Fire Shadow".

Hoshikage : The leader of the Hidden Star Village.



Jinchuuriki : A person who has a bijuu or demon sealed inside of him/her.

Jounin : The highest class of ninja. While those ninjas in ANBU are considered elite, it does not guarantee their superiority over non-ANBU Jounin. Jounin usually receive only A or S rank missions and are generally leaders on these if they do not go solo. Respectable Jounin are entrusted with the responsibility of training new Genin. Jounin can be expected to have spectacular techniques. Seeing Jounin battle is a rare treat.

Jutsu : A technique or skill that requires the use of chakra.


Kawarimi : An illusionary change of body technique.

Although a very good student and chakra-molder, she isn’t very skilled at producing results in a dangerous situation and relies on others much of the time. Despite this, she is very determined and never runs away. She is very much the intellectual type, which makes her a very good candidate for medical ninja training. She can produce monstrous strength when angry at Naruto, who has always had a crush on her. The feeling has never been mutual. Recently Sakura has studied under Tsunade training as a medical Ninja. But learned a lot more then she bargained for. She can now channel an extreme amount of chakra into her fists and release it all at once in a flurry of slow but extremely powerful attacks. enough to explode trees into splinters and break up the ground into large chunks.

Hatake Kakashi

Age: 20
Origin: Konoha Village
Abilities: 1000+ copied techniques, Sharingan, Chidori
Acquaintances: Everyone in Konoha
Biography: Konoha’s technique specialist, he has copied over 1000 techniques. He is the leader of Team 7 and a Jounin. He is known as the Copy Ninja, but has developed his own original technique, called Chidori because it sounds like a thousand birds chirping as it’s being used. It is also called the Lightning Edge because he once cut through a bolt of lightning with it. He is very cunning, cool, and, as Gai says, “hip.” He’s a bit of a show-off, but only as reassurance to his friends that he has the situation under control, and even then not very often. He has a good sense of humor that catches one by surprise most of the time. Punctuality is not very important to him, but teamwork is. He believes the worst thing a ninja can do is to fail to look out for his fellow ninja. His obsession in reading a certain book is legendary in the Naruto world and is in actuality his greatest weakness.


Hyuuga Hiashi
Rank: Jounin
Birthday: Unknown
Age: 35
Origin: Konoha
Abilities: Kaiten, Jyuuken, Byakugan, etc.
Acquaintances: Konoha
Biography: The uncle of Neji and father of Hinata, he is the leader of the Main family of the Hyuuga clan. His twin brother harbored bitterness toward the Main family, as his giften son, Neji, was forced into the Branch family because Hiashi was born a few seconds earlier. Hiashi's brother sacrificed himself when Hiashi's life was demanded as payment when he killed a foreign ninja who attempted to abduct Hinata. Hiashi is a very superior ninja, befitting his royal position. He acknowledges Neji's genius, despite his status as a member of the Branch family.


Hyuuga Hinata
Rank: Genin
Birthday: Unknown
Age: 13
Origin: Konoha Village
Abilities: Jyuuken, Byakugan
Acquaintances: Everyone in Konoha
Biography: The successor to the Hyuuga clan, Hinata is very shy and has low confidence. She has a very large crush on Naruto, which she says is because she can see beyond his public image and know what he’s really like. She has great respect for his determination and confidence, which probably fuels her own growth in those areas. She has not inherited very strongly the abilities of the Hyuuga clan, per se. However, she is developing her own use of the Jyuuken. She seems to have a very secret beauty.


Hyuuga Neji
Rank: Genin
Birthday: July 3
Age: 14
Origin: Konoha Village
Abilities: Jyuuken, Byakugan, Kaiten
Acquaintances: Everyone in Konoha
Biography: A member of the inferior Branch Family of the Hyuuga, he has inherited the abilities of the clan very strongly. For instance, the Hakeshou Kaiten is only taught to the Head Family, yet Neji learned it, the Hakke Rokujuu, and Hakke Hyaku Nijuu Hachi himself. He is very much a genius. He can see the Tenketsu on a person’s body, which are the points through which chakra flows. He can strike those points and manipulate that flow, potentially stopping their chakra flow altogether. He once hated the Head Family for obvious reasons, but also because of a past shady incident involving his father. He relates himself to a caged bird. This metaphor gets very developed over time.



Inuzuka Kiba
Rank: Genin
Birthday: Unknown
Age: 13
Origin: Konoha Village
Abilities: Beast Transformation Techniques
Acquaintances: Everyone in Konoha
Biography: A ninja in the same year as Naruto, who doesn’t have much interest in school and shares some of the same mannerisms as Naruto. He is rash, but much of his confidence comes from his ability. His fighting style utilizes the speed and power of beasts. He transforms his pet, Akamaru, into his double for team attacks. The Inuzuka clan uses wolf-like dogs as their battle companions. Kiba‘s mother has one named Kuromaru, who is full-grown and can speak, which is what can one day be expected of Akamaru.

Abilities: Those expected of a Chounin
Acquaintances: Everyone in Konoha
Biography: A Chuunin in charge of teaching the students of ninja school. His parents were killed during the Kyuubi’s attack on Konoha.

Birthday: November 11
Age: 51
Origin: Konoha
Abilities: Rasengan, Frog Summon
Acquaintances: Everyone in Konoha
Biography: Jiraiya, or the Frog Hermit, is one of the legendary Sennin. He is basically a perverted old man with extremely powerful ninja techniques. He specializes in infiltration and information gathering, although one might suppose this is because he uses that as a guise for his frivolry with drinking and women. Jiraiya has taken an interest in Naruto after learning that Akatsuki wants to take control over him. This is probably for the better, as Jiraiya's personality as well as combat style matches Naruto's better than Kakashi's does.

Abilities: Silent Killing, Water Jutsus

He became a mercenary for those too shady or too stingy to hire out ninja from a Hidden Village.

Rock Lee
Rank: Genin
Birthday: Unknown
Age: 14
Origin: Konoha Village
Abilities: Lotus, Inner Gate-Opening
Acquaintances: Everyone in Konoha
Biography: A ninja who is unable to use ninjutsu or genjutsu. He was considered a failure for most of his schooling, but was somehow able to graduate. He met Gai-sensei and adopted his work ethic, among with a few other questionable characteristics, including his bobbed haircut, sparkling smile, and green jumpsuit. His hard work is unmatched by any ninja, save perhaps Gai-sensei. He has been called a genius of hard work and his goal is to beat the genius, Neji. His strength and speed are incredible and he usually wears ridiculously heavy weights on his legs to make him faster. When he removes them, his speed is nearly unmatched. He may only be able to use Taijutsu, but he is fast becoming a master. When he ingests even a little bit of alcohol, he gets blackout drunk and becomes a drunken master style fighter. He becomes even more powerful when this happens, but the real advantage lies in the unpredictability of his movements. When he is unconscious, he can still fight strictly from muscle memory (it takes 3000 repetitions of an action to commit it to muscle memory). Rock Lee is an extremely dependable ally, no matter the situation.



Sarutobi Asuma
Rank: Jounin
Birthday: October 18
Age: 28
Origin: Konoha
Abilities: Chakra Knives
Acquaintances: Everyone in Konoha

Also, the knives do not actually have to make contact in order to cut something. The members of Team 10 are not all that spectacular, although Asuma did breach Shikamaru's laziness to discover his extremely high intelligence. Asuma is also an encouragement to Chouji, although he doesn't really understand the Akimichi clans use of food and body weight for combat. He has little to do with Ino's growth, as their abilities contrast so greatly.

Rank: Hokage
Birthday: February 8
Age: 69
Origin: Konoha
Abilities: Master of over 1000 techniques
Acquaintances: Everyone in Konoha

Acquaintances: Older Generation of Konoha
Biography: The Fourth Hokage was an extremely gifted and powerful ninja, who sacrificed himself for Konoha by using a self-developed kamakaze technique on the Kyuubi, sealing it inside Naruto as an infant. The Fourth invented several such techniques, including the Rasengan, which Jiraiya learned, who taught it to Naruto. Naruto bears a strong resemblance to The Fourth, with his blond hair and blue eyes, however no connection has been established aside from sealing the Kyuubi inside him. However, this raises the question of why Naruto was chosen and where and who he came from. many speculate that The fourth Hokage is actually Naruto's Father. But yet again there still is no proven connection


Tsunade, The Fifth Hokage
Rank: Hokage
Birthday: August 2
Age: 51
Origin: Konoha
Abilities: Medical Techniques, Creation Rebirth
Acquaintances: Everyone in Konoha
Biography: In Sarutobi's team as a Genin with Jiraiya and Orochimaru, Tsunade has an extremely good ability to control chakra. She can even store chakra in the shape of a diamond on her forehead, which she uses for her Creation Rebirth Technique, which speeds up the regeneration process of the cells in her body, enabling her to completely heal her wounds in an instant. However, this shortens her lifespan in the long run. She can also use her chakra control to give her monstrous strength. She can summon slugs, which would seem pretty useless, but their abilities complement Tsunade's by absorbing damage and providing aid to other ninja. She mentored Sakura in the art of a medical ninja, but she went a little farther and taught Sakura a little more then medicinal techniques.



Uchiha Itachi
Rank: Exiled ANBU Jounin, member of Ak

Acquaintances: Kakashi, Sasuke, older citizens of Konoha
Biography: The prodigy of the Uchiha clan, he graduated the ninja academy when he was seven years old, developed his Sharingan at age eight, and was a squad leader in ANBU at thirteen.

He is a member of Akatsuki, along with several other exiled ninja. He has mastered the use of his Uchiha body and can form seals faster than the human eye can detect, let alone avoid or counter. Evil though he is, he is a ninja’s ninja.


Uchiha Sasuke
Rank: Genin
Birthday: July 23
Age: 13
Origin: Konoha Village
Abilities: Fire Ninjutsus, Chidori, Sharingan
Acquaintances: Everyone in Konoha
Biography: The most talented rookie of his year at the ninja academy, he is the sole survivor of the Uchiha clan, which was mostly murdered in cold blood by Sasuke’s older brother, Itachi. Itachi left Sasuke alive in hopes that he would become strong and face him one day and that Sasuke would develop the Mangekyou Sharingan. Sasuke does develop Sharingan, which he can use to see through techniques and can usually use his Uchiha body to counter them. He is an excellent Taijutsu user and can perform some advanced ninjutsu as well. He seems cool and collected, but he can be easily agitated if his attainment of power is at all threatened. Naruto is his rival, but also his closest friend, admittedly. This rivalry produces a potentially dangerous determination in each other, although it drives them to grow like nothing else. Sasuke’s only goal in life is to kill Itachi and he will go to all but one length to achieve the power to do so.


Uzumaki Naruto
Rank: Genin
Birthday: October 10
Age: 13
Origin: Konoha Village
Abilities: Shadow Replication, Rasengan, Summoning Technique, Harem no Jut
Acquaintances: Everyone in the show...
Biography: A child in the Hidden Ninja Village of Konoha. What happened to his parents is unknown, but it is a fact that he was alone since an infant. He bears a physical resemblance to the Fourth Hokage with his blonde hair and blue eyes, but there is no evidence that links them other than that the Fourth sealed the Kyuubi (nine-tails demon fox) inside the infant to protect Konoha from its wrath. Naruto can call upon this creature’s chakra and use it for his own techniques. The people of Konoha regarded him as the Kyuubi itself for most of his life, confused about the seal placed on him. This faded as Naruto grew as a ninja and defended Konoha with his life. His dream is to one day receive the title of Hokage as the greatest ninja in Konoha. He is very clumsy and very noisy, but very good at surprising people, which is often his greatest weapon. Although lacking in some of the basics of being a ninja, his determination is unmatched and with the Kyuubi’s chakra and he produces results in the most hopeless situations. He lives his life according to his own way of the ninja. He is probably the most impulsive ninja, but these impulses serve him well often enough and are the very reason he and several other ninja have survived the missions they have been involved in.

During the Chuunin Exam, some issues appear to have been worked out, whether they admit it or not.
