Most Favorite Ninja Cartoon of Asia

Last time I talked about the Japanese Ninja, and now I will talk about the most favorite Ninja cartoon that I know. In Europe cartoon has the TMNT (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles), and in Asia has the Naruto. I talked about TMNT not long time now I will talk about the Naruto.


The Naruto is the Japanese cartoon write and paint by Masashi Kishimoto. The story talk about Naruto who lonely, hyperactive, and the most important he want to be the Hokage. Ho means fire, and Kage means shadow. Hokage is the boss of the ninja village. The name of ninja village calls Konohagakure. The villagers in this village respect fire spirit. Not only one but have another 4 village are Sunagakure has Kazekage and respects wind spirit. Kirigakure has Mizukage and respect water spirit. Kumogakure has Raikage and respects lightning spirit. And the last, Iwagakure has Tsuchikage and respects earth spirit.


Main characters are Uzumaki Naruto, Haruno Sakura, Uchiha Sasuke, and Hatake Kakashi.


Uzumaki Naruto is lonely, fool, and hyperactive. He wishes one day he will be the Hokage. Naruto has the power of the Nine-tailed demon fox in his body, so he is powerful boy.


Uchiha Sasuke is cool and genius boy different Naruto very much. He is only one that alive of his family who has been killed by Uchiha Itachii his elder brother, and Sasuke wants to revenge him.
Hatake Kakashi is the leader of group 7, and he is a teacher of Naruto Sasuke, and Sakura. He always reads Magazine and close left eye.


Haruno Sakura is one female member of group 7. She has 2 characters one she shows all time is normal girl but when she angry Naruto or somebody she change to another character the powerful girl. We can see when she angry Naruto.



The story start by twelve years before the events at the focus of the series, the Nine-tailed demon fox attacked Konohagakure. It destroyed mountain and can made tsunami, it non stop until the fourth Hokage sacrificed his own life to seal the demon inside Naruto when he was a newborn. After that the villager do not want to talk about this event and they do not want any posterity know. So they try to leave from Naruto that why Naruto lonely. Next, he finish from academy ninja he is Genin (lower ninja or junior ninja), and he has been send to Kakashi’s group that has Sakura and Sasuke are members. But Naruto does not like Sasuke and Sasuke too. One thing that same is they are lonely. Naruto love Sakura, but Sakura love Sasuke. After they adventure together they are the best friends, but the way that Sasuke can do to revenge his elder brother he musts betray his friend, so he leaves from the team. Naruto wants Sasuke comes back to be his best friend again. He training skill, try to search Sasuke and carry him comes back.


Now Naruto make in cartoon book, animation TV series, and the movie in the theater. I think most of boy in Thailand know and like Naruto.
