I think the single person in the village that took care of naruto most. Was the Ramen guy. Such an under appreciated character for real. That man knew how the village saw naruto. And never refused him service. Always made sure he was eating. I remember reading that the reason naruto loves Ramen is because the shop was the only place he felt kindness as a child. And that hits somewhere deep. On a side note I need to rewatch naruto. It's been a while
Great Analysis. And yeah Go rewatch it. I am rewatching it right now and it is awesome 👍 Right from the get Go the series Hits you in the feels. The ending Theme, the way He is treated. Its Just good storytelling. And thats the First Episode.
@@edenjung9816 I really do, I've watched the series multiple times through but it might be time for another run lol. I have a friend who's never seen it so I may get them into it so I have a good reason lol
Given how unchecked and underdeveloped he had been until Iruka and becoming a genin under Kakashi supervision, the Leaf is really lucky, that he had not turned resentful, bitter and vengeful on it.
@@scottbecker4367 I feel like that is one of the points of the show - the two different ways rejection can form people - attention seeking versus vengeful
@@yashawarahmawan7502 Minato being the Yellow Flash had to make hundreds of enemies during the war and those enemies would most likely to thrive for destroying something from Minato. That would be the reason why Hiruzen didn't want to raise Naruto like a royalty as it would give away that he's not Naruto Uzumaki, but Naruto Namikaze
Child naruto with his chubby cheeks, blue eyes, big smile was so cute. Him wandering alone in the streets, left at the park by himself after playtime, going back to a house where no one was waiting for him is heartbreaking to see. No child should ever live that way 😭😭😭
Him feeling abandoned really wreck me.I hate kids before but after watching this,really change me especially in his case,not knowing how much his parents really loved him that they both risk their lives just for him to live😢
Naruto's backstory is really tragic but I feel really bad for Sai. He was taken in as a kid and raised by Danzo. Who knows how many people he's had to kill under orders as a child. The dude needs to read books to understand what emotions are. I mean his dream is to be able to have a genuine smile. That's it, no power, fame, fortune, none of that just a real smile. How f'd up was his life
If I’m being honest, the entire village, including the third and Jiraya failed Naruto. He should have have surrogate parents, but didn’t. He was left with a place to stay and an allowance his entire young life. I don’t think he had anyone do more than doing surveillance on him one he was 3-5. The show made it clear that he had no connections until Iruka at the end of his days at the academy.
correct, it was the plothole leave by masashi kishimoto, as he himself didn't plot the future story of this manga not as Master Oda of One Piece.. from the beginning we were told Naruto was left alone by the villagers, including 3rd Hokage and Kakashi just knew Naruto when he was in academy.
I wouldn’t say that third or jiraya failed Naruto (though the third could’ve done better), the third had to rebuild the village and was dealing with shit from both danzo and the uchiha clan. Jiraya couldn’t do anything since he had his duties as the village spymaster
Personally, I think Naruto needs a “What If” spin off of what would’ve happened if Naruto went evil. It would’ve been perfectly justifiable for Naruto to turn evil after all the shit he went through.
@@ishmeelcurry3394 except with Sage Mode, Kurama, and more chakra than anybody in the world. If Madara hadn’t been wearing his Uchiha tunnel-vision goggles, he would’ve had significantly more success with Naruto as well.
He honestly turned out incredibly nice, well adjusted and empathetic considering how he was treated growing up. I feel like Gaara seems like a more understandable result of such prejudice.
Gaara had it worst, he was given care and guess wht? turns out the caretaker he so got attached to tried to kill him, ofc he'd grow up with trust issues and hate evryone, he knew he only had himself to keep him safe since his own dad issued an order to kill him, at least naruto was kept safe and never had to fear for his life.
Gaara actually harmed people. Even if accidentally. Naruto simply could not of behaved like Gaara without training to use the beast. Also Gaara also had personality issues. He might accidentally hurt someone
@@sumnahlennon5449bitch... Your dad didn't try to murder you and pay for people to assassinate you 😂😂😂 your nanny you entrusted to our love and trust to goes suicide vest mode 😂😂😂 Gaara lived a dog eat dog world and came out on top...
No, i think you are the one who need therapy. They are not real wth, your solution is useless for them. Sorry to say this but sometimes reality is harsh.
I'm honestly disgusted by the way that the village treated Naruto. Even though he has the nine-tailed fox inside of him, he's still the honorable son of the Fourth Hokage, and the people who lashed out at him, rejected him, or treated him like a disease, should be ashamed of themselves. If Minato stayed alive and sealed the nine-tailed fox within himself, they wouldn't have treated him like that. They took advantage of Naruto's age to treat him poorly, because he was an innocent child who couldn't stand up for himself and didn't know any better.
@@morningivy9006 Hiruzen thought that it was best that Naruto, being the son of the Fourth Hokage would be dangerous and should be kept a secret for his safety. That’s why his last name is Uzumaki instead of Namikaze.
@@jefftabita I still feel like they should know...considering he looks so much like Minato and nothing like an Uzumaki despite having their last name and the rest of his clan being virtually extinct. What did they think Minato just found some random blonde hair blue eyed Uzumaki newborn to seal the tailed beast into?
this anime shows how people will look at u based on something they heard/captured, but once you become big, they act like they loved u all along. Naruto has such a beautiful storyline, this anime will forever be my fav.
It's a garbage storyline. You're just not grown yet that's why you think it's good. Kishimoto is a trash writer full of plotholes horrible ending leaves out the best characters. It's garbage.
@@AndrewHager-o1m Oh right - then... Please write and draw for everything chapter to put in 1000 episodes. To tell the truth, I will be insane if I'm kishimoto position. Never end manga? I'm going crazy for it.
@@bubble2904 because I didn’t dedicate my career to writing stories. I’m a CNC machinist. Not everybody who picks up a pen and writes and draws is good at it just because you put in the work doesn’t mean you’re good at it and not everybody is a good machinist either just like not everybody is a good nurse not everybody is a good cook etc etc.
Honestly, given the fact that Minato was Kakashi's sensei I wouldn't be surprised if he watched over him voluntarily. He probably would've felt like it was part of his responsibility to watch over Naruto regardless if it was an order or not
Ya, but also kakashi is pretty self-destructive, after losing so many people he cared about, i would be surprised if he decided to keep himself busy as anbu on missions rather than watch over naruto
@@japanesemangalover Kakashi father off-ed himself when Kakashi was still in the academy, I believe. We know this because there is this one, or few episodes, showing Kakashi life, how he would say "I'm home" and "I'm leaving now" before heading to school despite no one being there anymore. Also I think Kakashi was a bit older than Naruto when he first met Raman Guy, as from another flashback we see Kakashi and Naruto lives being compared. But I still could be wrong.
@@japanesemangalover Sakumo committed suicide years before Minato’s death. Minato is the one that tells Obito (and also us the reader) about Sakumo and his suicide. It is literally the first mention we get of Kakashi’s dad in the series.
Kakashi’s dad was gone before he was a genin which was like age 6? After that his closest parental figure was Minato. So Kakashi was grieving the loss of everyone he had ever loved. He was taking dangerous missions and was self destructive, bordering on suicidal. Plus he was still young, people forget Kakashi was still a teenager when Naruto was born. Tho Naruto canon is weird with dates and ages. So Kakashi was in no way prepared to care for Naruto. Also his childhood was barely a childhood. Kakashi was a Chuunin and fighting in a war before his teenage years. Plus his family name was insulted quite a lot because the village used Sakumo as a scapegoat for the 3rd Shinobi War. His “childhood” was probably as unpleasant as Naruto’s. He probably thought of Naruto’s treatment as slightly harsh but not outside the norm. Also, he was a genius, even as a child…I mean a 6 year old should not be a capable fighter, but he was. So he probably couldn’t really understand the physical or emotional abuse Naruto was experiencing because he processes emotions and develops at a much different rate. But most of all, the man lost everyone he loved, I’m sure he checked in on Naruto occasionally but he was too young and too depressed to care full time. Plus I don’t doubt that the Third and Danzo warned Kakashi away saying “if Minato’s student care for him, people will figure out his identity quicker and bring enemies after him.” That would be the final blow to Kakashi’s emotional state. I love Kakashi cause he’s been through so much trauma but is still standing. He’s an interesting character with a Fascinating backstory. I mean as a kid he invented jutsu’s and was so quick to develop. I think the trauma and the stupid Uchiha Eye stunted his growth. Age wise , the years post Kyuubi attack should have been his peak developmental years in terms of skills and capabilities…yet they weren’t, he stagnated… Truly an interesting character
Fact: Sasuke's mom originally wanted to adopt him after Minato and Kushina died but it was forbidden. Can you imagine if Naruto grows up in Uchiha's household?
Yes, then also he would be a double orphan after the massacre. Only if Itachi would spare his life along with Sasuke. Either way, the two would be great brothers, if they weren't reincarnations of Ashura and Indra, who were real brothers (but still fought one another). Maybe the show would take another turn, but still some things would be the same. Naruto looking for Sasuke to come back to the village for years and things like that. But the show would pass another messages, symbolizing the problems of relatives and brothers. Yes, that also gets passed , but the creator made Naruto like this, so that he would represent glimpses of hope to the life of others. A ball of sunshine through the darkness. Good concept, eitherway!!!
@ashesofhopesinabonfireofdr6341 Danzo and the elders for sure. I think Hiruzen wasn't necessarily Danzo's whipping post, but he was outnumbered in regards to mentality. Hiruzen's aim was to prevent Naruto from finding out what happened to his parents, so he wouldn't lose control of Kurama. If Naruto had gone to live with Fugaku and Mikoto, do you really think they wouldn't have told him at some point? Considering how close Kushina and Mikoto seem to be in flashbacks, I think it would've been hard for Mikoto specifically to keep that from Naruto. The relations between Danzo and Hiruzen is simply being former teammates. Danzo and Hiruzen weren't chummy, anything but actually. It wasn't from Hiruzen's lack of trying though. Hiruzen's bravery is the reason Danzo didn't become Hokage in the first place and Danzo never got over that, Hiruzen knows this. Unfortunately, like real politics, one vote doesn't take the cake and you can't just get rid of your opposition when they have support from other politicians. Taking out Danzo would've caused a civil war in the Leaf because Danzo did have supporters, even in the Feudal Lord's court. It would've save a lot of future trouble though... Konan, Nagato, Itachi, Fugaku, Mikoto, Shisui, OROCHIMARU, etc. wouldn't have ended up the way they did if it wasn't for Danzo. However, Hiruzen didn't know about the Hanzo and Orochimaru team-ups to my knowledge.
I always thought Naruto growing up in isolation was drastically unrealistic. I know people might be afraid of him because of the 9 tails, but who in their right mind would let someone like that grow up without a rock solid family and support network? The village is almost unbelievably lucky he didn't go on a rampage at age 7.
It's more realistic than it seems. This is also Japanese. In America, the kid would be swept up and made into a millionare in Hollywood. In other countries, some kids are really on their own. Men in general become on their own even when they don't know it. Because there's a time when people just stop caring. He has to go out and make something of himself, and that means cutting ties with deadweights or naysayers holding him back. And having deadweight hobbies, people or things around is like driving a car with the handbrake on
@@CaptainFALKEN I don't think this is the same though. Naruto is neglected essentially from birth. There's no get it on your own when the whole village hated him, not indifferent. No one even helped him with the basics, if you recall, he struggles with something as simple as the clone and not a single person takes the effort. Naruto is the only heir of the fourth Hokage who literally sacrificed his whole family to protect the village and their military strength(tailed beast), Leadership and select Jonin know this. I get he only has 50% of Kurama but to have one of your strongest assets, essentially someone who's nobility, completely uncared for, barely tended to, and untrained is wreckless. You can say Anbu was watching him but the level of his pranks shown early suggest this was occasionally at best. Replace Naruto as the target for the Hyuga affair and they would have lost him + he had no loyalty to even attempt coming back. Guaranteed Stockholm syndome with any attention. Literally insane luck no one could peice together who Naruto was. Spitting image of Minato, bares the name Uzumaki (a destroyed clan with few straglers), the only line to host the nine tailes + the last name of Minato's wife and due to his features you can tell his isn't pure.
@@CaptainFALKEN no its not realistic at all when we talking about a kid that is a surreal weapon for the country and the son of a hokage, their parents dead not both of their family someone from kushina or minato family could take care of him , theirs a orphanage, and the 3 hokage could take care of him from again because is a F weapon and the son the hokage.
you forgot the context that the ninja world was in a state of conflict at the time; most people had trouble even taking care of themselves. there were multiple wars, and the village had only recently been attacked by the nine-tails a few years prior. ninja were still losing lives all the time during missions. naruto was not just a regular kid but seen as a sort of "ticking time bomb" if he lost control, posing a threat to the entire village including his caretakers. Glad that naruto proved himself in the end.
@@jbrkjferkjbekjb thats why its makes 0 sense to leave a ticking time bomb all alone whit out LOVE wtf theres a orfanage for that, u have a F hokage for that is not a poor person and if hes hokage he as responsabilitys plus makes no sense naruto having no family and because if a F bomb lk u said they should put him in anbu...... their alot of option based on the CONTEXT u just talking nonse sense, admit that makes no sense a monster weapon all alone from a young age
An important thing people miss in Naruto is that Iruka hated Naruto at first. Iruka blamed Naruto for his parents death and wanted nothing to do with him. It was thanks to Hiruzen that Naruto ever had Iruka. Hiruzen proved to Iruka that Naruto is so much like him. A child trouble maker always acting out so that he can have attention that he never got from his parents. Hiruzen made Iruka see that him and Naruto are much more alike than he knows and that’s what grew the Empathy and Love that Iruka has for Naruto.
The moment Naruto changed When Iruka took a huge shuriken in the back to protect him. Naruto does not understand it. So he transformed from mischievous kid to more of better version
Is a difference between Naruto and iruka arouca would be more like he actually knew his Naruto didn't have a family at all but iruka took A shuricen to the back
Truthfully Naruto going down Gaara's path I feel would've been the common denominator for most of us. Having that kind of power ignited by emotions and the built up resentment? Ichiraku Ramen/Iruka may just have saved the leaf village as far as I'm concerned
Personally I feel like Minato would have been disappointed knowing how Naruto was treated as a child. Many knew he was the child of Minato and even after their (very tragic and noble deaths I might say) should have treated him much better. Including pervy sage. I felt Naruto was failed by everyone as a child. While yes I’m sure they did that to build his character and to show how he achieved everything while being a orphan and alone, but let’s be honest if Minato and his mother knew how is childhood ended up and how and that even Jiraiya didn’t come to his life until way later I feel they would be upset. They died for the village and for their son and they treated naruto that way in return? Fuck that. Especially Jiraiya. He literally named Naruto after a character in his book. That was his godson basically. So where was he? I would be disappointed. Even Kakashi who, yes he became his teacher….but they were under the orders of the 3rd soooooo. I don’t understand why they could of just stopped the bullying from the village and at least have someone be there to raise him. Minato died for them all, it’s the least they could do. Also I know many many knew who his father was. Even that episode when that villager said “isn’t that the killed who killed the 4th” like wtf and shame on the third for allowing his people to treat him that way while he watched in the distance. Throughout the series that’s what pissed me off the most.
Kakashi is the special case of "under any other circonstances", He is just as much to blame as the other especially as a teacher since he didnt really teach em much besides a shaky notion of teamwork that Naruto had to teach the others afterward. But no one sane including Kakashi would force a teenager currently in Anbu mentally unstable after failing in his own mind to protect any member of his team and if it wasnt for ANOTHER trauma from his father's suicide would most definitly consider the option to even try and raise Naruto. Sure one could question why Kakashi didnt start once he left Anbu, but he left Anbu a short few years top before the story starts, and he has been forced out of Anbu, he is still just as messed up, he is just old enough to hide it behind the mask and his lazy persona. Had Minato or Kushina lived, he'd have taken care of Naruto, even if they were just in a coma, the mere thought that they could be back would be enough. Had Rin survived (wouldve said Obito too but like he is responsible for the deaths in the first place) he'd have taken care of Naruto, even if they were teenagers. If essentially anything happened differantly in Kakashi's life, he'd have taken care of Naruto. Jiraya is most definitly the one that escaped his responsability the most, at least Kakashi had the excuse of youth and not being fit in any capacity to raise a kid, but justifying not taking care of your grandson under the guise of keeping up a spy network who is far less efficient than Root at information gathering (didnt know anything clear about the Akatsuki while Danzo litteraly participated in their deaths a few years back like lol), doesnt work.
Jiraya was was still traveling around like his prophecy said he was supposed to, and also still chasing after his friend, Orochimaru at the time. He was always off spying on and trying to get to Orochimaru while following the Elder Toad sage's prophecy that he should travel the world writing books and find an apprentice who will be the child of destiny.
Naruto went through so much yet he kept his great attitude toward life and other people. It'd be hard to blame him if he followed a similar path to Sasuke whose world was turned upside down as a child. Glad they both found their happiness.
He didnt keep a great attitude, he developed it, in the beginning he was resentful and a delinquent, lonely and sad, but he at least kept his dream, what made him become. a better person were his comrades and the ninja around him like iruka, kakashi, sasuke, gaara, jiraya each of them influenced his path and character immensely
the fact how naruto succeded in becoming a genin without any guidance, nobody educating him at home or giving him proper support and love shows what an exceptional person he always was. and he continued to thrive when finally the adults took up the mantle of responsibility (like jiraiya who until this point failed his godfather-role miserably). he learned the rasengan within a week while being 12 yo. what a champion. and dont even get me started on his character, which is the most wholesome in the world.
yes thats why the hokage was hanging around with him. narutos secret theme for the show was hypocracy. he spouted nonsense about hard work beating a genius while literally having teh the second best bloodline. being taught by the best ninja's in the village. haveing the most powerful being in the entire world sealed within him. and actually being a genius himself. and in the end, neji died to protect the main branch family and lee's hard work made him the weakest ninja in the villiage.
@@jebes909090 Im really tired of this stupid narrative. Its ridiculous that people still buy into this stupid video after all these years. You parrot it as if its true when it isnt. Neji made a choice. He saved Hinata not because he had to by destiny but because he wanted to do it in that moment. Lee was far from the weakest ninja in the village. Naruto had no guidance growing up at all. His bloodline was a secret for most of the show. His entire clan was slaughtered ruthlessly and he was only a half blood. Stop pushing this nonsense to sound smart and try and dunk on the fucking story you clearly know nothing about.
@@billybobbobson3797 neji made a choice to do exactly what he was born to do. and naruto got all his powers and abilities from the best teachers and the best bloodline. no guidence? the 3rd hokage himself administrated to naruto. the 6th hokage too as well as the 5th hokage. and his master was also chosen to be the 5th hokage.
I know the writers were going for a certain narrative but his childhood was the saddest thing I have ever seen he deserved better and on top of that they talk crap about him and treat him like dirt that was an unnecessary part of the story to me. And then to see him embrace them because they recognize his power after he saved them numerous times. But all in all it had to be one of the best animes I've ever seen
have danzo to thank for the way naruto was treated, he leaked to the villagers Naruto was a demon jinchuriki that attacked the hidden leaf and killed the fourth hokage, but Hiruzen told everyone he was their hero who the fourth bequeathed to them at the cost of his life
The infinite tsukoyomi episode had me in tears it was literally everything Naruto had ever wanted and for a brief moment he got to experience what it’s like to have a family…say what you will about Naruto’s filler episodes but they’re not all trash! There are definitely some hidden gems in there😢
@@nero1765 In case you haven't found it and for any future person looking for it, there's a movie where Naruto gets to spend time as a family with his parents (I think it's what OP was referring to), it's called Road to Ninja and there's an episode that comes before it in Shippuden, episode 311, it's called Prologue of Road of Ninja. Basically, Naruto and Sakura are confronted by Tobi and wake up in the village, but strange, Naruto has his family and Sakura doesn't. It was a really good movie :)
@@Onepieceistheworstfuckinganimehow is naruto pathetic? In what way? Naruto is anything but pathetic because he had the whole world treating him like shit but worked hard so that other people would respect for his talents
Have to say, Hiruzen really dropped the ball when it came Naruto upbringing. He's the freaking Hokage, he could have hired someone, or appointed a secret shinobi to raise Naruto. You know he's the Jinchuriki, how does it make sense to give Naruto an excuse to hate the village. Ideas of revenge aside, his dad and mom gave their lives to save the freaking village. Had Minato and Kushina knew this is what you'd do with their baby boy afterwards, I think they would have second guessed the idea of sacrificing themselves. LOL
Who would've taken that job seriously though given the mentality towards Jinchuriki at the time? Especially the Kyuubi jinchuriki. No one. We saw what happened with Gaara when his uncle tried to make him snap. Imagine what would've happened to young Naruto had he been told about his parents. Couldn't risk it, which is why Hiruzen sought out Iruka. What no one noticed, except the viewers of course, was that Naruto already had someone in his corner. Granted she was hiding in the shadows to avoid getting caught by her prestigious family, but still. Lol.
The biggest fuck up was either not mentioning anything about the Bijuu inside snd presenting him as an orphan boy so hed just be treated like everyone else. Or tell the full dtory of him being the 4ths and Kushinas son who sacraficed himself and personally sealed half the chakra. As well as him being watched so nothing bad would ever happen. But to just leave him as "The child that caused the 4ths death and has the beast sealed? And lets not talk about letting Danzo do anything... he caused so nuch issues.
Dude should have been a bit better at taking care of Naruto, the villagers (except the younger generation and the Ramen guy as well Iruka after a while) and more dropped the ball hard. They were lucky this didn't created another Gaara.
@luisemoralesfalcon4716 Which is why Hiruzen assigned Naruto to Iruka. As for the younger generation, they treated him no better than their parents did at first. Only difference is they turned to openly mocking him rather than doing it behind his back. The only person that never discredited Naruto was Hinata, who snuck away was before the Academy days just to watch him train despite what her handler and father said. Even Shikamaru and Choji, weren't his friends until right before they started at the Academy. Sasuke was open about his acceptance of Naruto, but it was there to a degree during the Academy days after his family was massacred. The rest didn't really accept him until they all became genin, they followed their parents example until they saw enough of his character to have a conflicting opinion. 🤷♀️ But that became Naruto's goal... and he accomplished it very well. He definitely could've been another Gaara had it not been for Hiruzen and Kakashi helping Iruka help Naruto though. Hiruzen gives Iruka the task, but Kakashi helps him understand the true purpose for that task. Iruka wouldn't have been able to help Naruto without them.
I think it’s Actually beautiful that sasuke was really always there. he felt how the village ostracized naruto and definitely wanted to stand up for him. im glad they gave Naruto a true rival.
the biggest inconsistency was keeping naruto linage a secret. they kept saying it was to protect him. howevwr the entire village knew he was the nine tails jinjuriki. im pretty sure tat would had put a bigger target on his back lol
Danzo secretly leaked the information that Naruto is the nine tails jinchuriki. Pretty much every horrible thing that happened to kids from the hidden leaf was because of either Danzo or Orochimaru.
Рік тому+9
They threated Jinjuruki very different as compared to the Raikage village.
It’s called retcons. It’s a two decade long story there was obviously revision to the plot . The other tailed beast to are a post timeskip addition to the story. Shippuden era should be seen as 2.0 update to the story. Ninetails was just supposed to be a ninetails/demon and the same for a Gaara. They retconned the rest in.
well, in the first few episodes, Kakashi said that "so this is where he lives" when he visited Naruto's house, so this story of very kid Naruto is more likely retcon
Gaara had it worse... his own father tried assassinating him multiple times and killed the person he thought loved him(his uncle) but found out he was one of the assassins. Everyone else feared Gaara including his siblings and they all saw him as a monster. Before fighting Naruto he thought killing was the only way to have purpose. Edit: Thanks for the 1k likes I wasn’t expecting so much
I agree but I sympathize with Naruto more. Gaara had one fvcked up life and so did Naruto. The only reason I'm more sympathetic with Naruto is that he never gave up he had every right to but he never did. I watched this show when I was 7 and Naruto was always my favorite. The thing is I related to his character maybe on a more minor lever but still. I was left out by everyone aswell and I had to work way harder than my siblings to even get a slight "Nice" from my parents. When I stayed up till 12 studying so I could get A's on everything nobody cared. Though my older brother failed most of his classes and was taken out for ice cream when he got even a C. The few times I did get a C my parents went insane I was told I would amount to nothing and that I've failed them. I was bullied by my father and brother aswell my father went as far to throw a knife at me one day. He'd done far worse and threatened to make my life hell if I told anyone, I didn't listen and he's kept his word. I was hated by everyone at my school and faced bullying physical and verbal I have scars from this. Well everyone except for two people, my cousin and at the time my best friend. My cousin wasn't perfect but she was there for me, the only problem was I rarely saw her. My best friend defended me at school but eventually died due to a car crash. Recently my family has been somewhat better but I still hate my very existence. The only reason I'm even here is due to my cat and the fact that I've finally got friends and someone I'm interested in. Sorry I went on a whole backstory my bad.
@@volleyleopard1856 Yeah that was def a bit much, especially to unload to online randoms BUT you're cat does need you, dearly. The amount of animals tossed out on the street from people that were suppose to protect and love them is insane. They get hit by cars, starved and diseased, attacked by other animals, and tortured and killed by disgusting evil humans. Thank you for loving and protecting your cat.

Naruto had 3 grandfathers (Ramen shop owner-Teuchi Ichiraku, 3rd Hokage-Sarutobi and Pervy Sage-Jiraiya), 2 teachers that were as father figures (Iruka sensei and Kakashi Hatake), and a grandmother (the gambler-Tsunade). Even though he felt alone without a family, he grows to realize he always had it, and in the end the whole village, is his family.
Kakashi never really had a connection with Naruto until shippuden. Kakashis favorite was always Sasuke. Even Jiraya said 'What is the challenge to teach a jutsu to a genius student with sharingan' to Kakashi on chunin exam area. And Sarutobi is really left Naruto alone. You can't imagine even u try How can a kid grew up alone. How can he clean himself. How can he feed himself. And that that time Konahamaru has his own Jonin guard
I am literally crying after watching this video. He has gone through a lot through out his childhood. I can't even imagine the feeling that he would have felt when he would go alone to sleep in the whole house
Same. I m finally catching up with the series again, now that am an adult. Barely halfway of Shippuden now but all I do is cry lol. The things he went through did not change his heart. Naruto has a golden heart. He cares so deeply
Watching Naruto growing up felt too close to home. Growing up my Mom moved away and my Dad took a Trucking job, they divorced. So I was alone in the house for a lot of the time. Naruto not only made me make my Ramen as different as possible, but made me realize that I dont need to go villainous like others have.
Yea I have a similar story. When I was born my father was the leader of a village and when he and my mother died he put a demon in me. My local Ramen guy made me realize he wasn't just there to m0lest me and force me to watch him touch himself till he creamed in my ramen. He also taught me about life n stuff yea..?
did you mom seal a giant killer spirit into herself and then into you taking the life of both yourparents and leaving you a hated orphan by the village? thats some coincidence!
I’ve grown an even stronger appreciation for this show watching it again. Naruto’s character has quite literally kept me afloat from a deep deep depression I’ve been in since I’ve lost my mother. Truly a beautiful show.
tbh, i think sasuke had it more painful 'Initially' than naruto. Its like... imagine a household full of people you interact with, then suddenly one day, you are all alone. feeling all the four corners of the room alone that was completely different to the previous setting. having someone to take care of you to an instant having absolutely no one. You only feel the loss of something because you once had it. different to what naruto may have experienced to having absolutely no one. Clue less of how a family works. He observes how family works but never feels one until the later. but still both are painful nonetheless.
@@almightybonbon I always think it is Sasuke who had worst life in Naruto his entire life nothing but tragedy. Even if No one Properly raised Naruto but there were at least few people who were concerned about him Jiraiya and Tsunade. Naruto never had family but Sasuke had good family that's why he understood loss of love-ones. Naruto felt that pain after Jiraiya died but Sasuke knew that feeling since childhood just to get to know his family killed by his own beloved brother
@@istiyakshaikh6471 Gaara had it worst. Feared by village, almost killed 6 times as a child. Had a family who hated him... he thought his own mother hated him...
I feel like there is a case to make here as to why Naruto appreciates the bonds he builds more than Sasuke throughout the series. Naruto never fit in, so he values and cherishes the people he meets along the way. While Susuke is afraid to lose the people, he let's in and sees them as a means to get more power. You can also argue that before stealing the scroll of forbidden jutsu, Naruto's strive to be Hokage was selfish and power lust, but after seeing Iruka sacrifice himself for Naruto's wellbeing he saw its better to get stronger for the sake of protecting the people you care about, and earning the Hokage position is about earning respect, not demanding it.
I would argue that it actually seems very likely that an orphanage did exist, or at least a system to care for all the orphans from the Kyuubi attack. This was a huge blow on the village, so my guess if Naruto was in fact in this sort of care, since he wasn't aware who Hiruzen was. he likely had to live on his own at some point due to Danzo leaking that Naruto was the Jinchuuriki. There's a high probabbility the orphanage would be a bad or even dangerous place for him. The best Hiruzen could do was treat Naruto separately from the other children without favouritism. Keep in my Minato had a LOT of enemies before he died. It was one of the reason Naruto's last name is Uzumaki and not Namikaze. To protect Naruto. So you can't really put extra protection and TLC into this ONE orphan unless you did it for the rest. People would get suspicious.
I agree, lee mentioned that he had gone to an orphanage after his parents had passed but made no mention on being adopted or still living at the orphanage. So as a ninja "adult" he had his own place just like naruto
His last name is Uzumaki because the Naruto series is based on a feudal Japanese system. Back then regardless of if it was the mother or father, the parent with the higher standing clan is the name the kids would take. Seeing as how the Uzumaki were a powerful clan and the Namakaze weren't that explains it. Your explanation is a fanfiction trope.
A lot of people always say that Hiruzen could have done more, given Naruto a far better life, but even with him being the Hokage, he had to be careful not to attract the backlash he'd get for being friendly with the "9 tailed demon". Danzo was the one who leaked the face Naruto had Kurama, and Hiruzen, despite his flaws, was far better to him then most.
The entire Village is extremely lucky Naruto didn’t become an enemy. After the way they treated him and fuck the Third. He failed in every way possible and then some.
@Every Day Humble True but it was certainly better than having the "strongest" tailed-beast jinchuriki joining the Akatsuki. But you gotta remember there's also the bad writing - plot holes and etc with Naruto having so many potential adoptive parental figures AND there's the laws about not telling Naruto about his background.
Tbf naruto didn't deal with the consequences of the pranks he did, even with vandalising the houses and faces of hokage. Hiruzan must've helped with that, because if that was a normal kid I doubt they would be treated the same
One of the reasons why naruto's identity as hokage's son was kept secret was for safety reasons, for fear that he would be targetted as jinchuriki. I'd imagine that hiruzen had to keep a distance from naruto for those reasons too, though one would wish the village had assigned a caretaker to him. but we have to understand that the village in general had been plagued by war, etc, and didnt have great resources.
Naruto’s tragic story is beautiful he grew up to be a decent human being despite not being treated like a human at the very least.. he had nobody to be there for him just him alone in his thoughts and doing what he thought people should do and be kind and treat others w decency and respect. He was a gentle kid who was mistreated by everyone & wanted to be respected so he fought so hard to get that.. growing up I was alone a lot until I formed bonds w the people who looked out for me (my friends my friends at the time/few people dear to me) made me make my own family despite only having one parent as my entire family.. it sucked it wasn’t until I was a teenager that I made friends and grew up at a very young age.. despite of it all I’m happy with what I have even though not everything is perfect how I want it to be but it’ll be ok just gotta keep working towards it Datte Bayo!
hiruzen tried his best to keep naruto's identity hidden. His identity as Minato's child would make him a target for those who hate Minato to the bones, and His identity as the jinjurikii. He supervised naruto's growth the ninja way.
@@HDLLHANZ yeah but he knows what will happen to konoha if he leaked the identity of naruto. They had just suffered heavy loses due to the kyubi's rampage, and attacks from other country would mean annihilation for their village.He loves konoha on his own way, and i think that's the reason why he aimed for the power of uchiha rather than leak infos that could lead to the utter destruction of his beloved village
@@JV-yq4tz isn't basically what he did? He tried so hard by spreading rumors that Naruto is the Kyuubi Jinchuriiki just so that Naruto could be kept under control, when that may have done more damage than letting Naruto living normally.
@@HDLLHANZ i think the rumors were spread internally, just inside the village since it was classified. If you remember on the chuunin exam arc, only the higher ranking officials from other villages knew about the kyuubi and it's host. Other ninjas were aware but doesn't know the real identity, not til they were told about it.
@@JV-yq4tz you are both wrong, Danzo spread the fact that Kurama was in the child's body on purpose. And Hiruzen was partly responsible because he knew of a lot of the shit that POS Danzo was responsible for but he could not being himself to punish him.
Exactly that’s why Hiruzen couldn’t take him in because Danzo leaked he had 9 tails in him so instead he watched him from a far and Mikoto uchiha wanted to take Naruto in but was denied for being a uchiha scared she might use him. Kakashi wanted to take him in was denied for being to young and he was a shinobi in Anbu so he would be away a lot and could die any time. Jariya couldn’t either due to being away a lot for infiltration missions like finding stuff on Orouchumaru and the akatsuki and could die while infiltration or on a mission and he also travelled to write his novels, he was also a candidate for Hokage and turned it down for those reasons.
@@silentwolfkills3924 Mikoto the MVP then. Imagine Naruto and Sasuke growing up as actual brothers. In that household the immensely gifted Naruto would have grown so strong even before entering the academy. Who knows, maybe Itachi wouldn't have had to kill his Clan even.
The big issue I find with Naruto’s upbringing is that it leads you to believe that he should have turned into the villain of the series honestly. Why would he want to become the leader of a place where people either hate him or are indifferent to him. He should have grown up angry towards the village and towards Hiruzen.
Thats the point he grew up angry towards the village that and to get at least some attention is the Reason why he behaved like he did as a child In my view thats atleast part of the reason i love this Story because while most of the village Theater him like trash ther were some people that showed him kindness starting with the Ramen guy to iruka to Team 7 leading to the hole village admiring him what could have happened if he hat none of These is pretty mich shown with gaara so i think the Massage here is that a few people that show kindness and live can make the Differenzen between becoming einher a hero or a Monster Sry for the Bad english its not my first language 😅
Nomatter how many animes come and go, Naruto will always hold a special place in my heart. His story is one of true anguish , survival, perseverance, and strength. He embodies the human spirit in its truest form. 😊❤ Great video. Thank you for the upload!
To see the heart-wrenching situations Naruto views and experienced throughout his young life. He just wanted someone to be around,unashamed. And for once to hug him close, tell him everything is okey, and told they love him.
If only the third hokage made a statement to not treat a literal child has trash to the whole village, that would have improved Naruto and Sasuke's life so much from the start
As i remembered he only ordered to konoha to not to talk about it, its forbidden to say that he has the tailed fox, the result is people of konoha looks naruto badly, hatred on their eye and keep their child not to play with him except shikamaru, his dad said its not wat it looks like but as well shikamaru is not interested on medling in others business
My dark opinion: The village and 3rd hokage kept their distance because he may have to kill him if the seal started to break. Those who were there for him time to time was those who cared. It was a mutal agreement between the elders to avoid conflict with one another incase narutos seal did break. No ties to naruto.
Yeap I agree with this point. Hiruzen has also had first hand experience with Orichimaru and not being able to kill him on the spot when he had the chance because he was too attached.
a stupid opinion too since they had many seal experts who can seal the fox and they even supposedly had Anbu watching him 24/7, they were likely experts at seals so again, they would have immediately resolved the issue. Simple reason is kishi fkd up. He tried to fix this by doing all sorts of flashbacks but just made things worse and it made Hiruzen look like an idiot who made a stupid decision
Naruto has the best life lesson the world could ever teach people. Even if your parents are losers or strict or barely there be grateful they are alive. Be grateful they gave you a life.🥰🥰 Naruto. Thank you kishimoto for this life lesson.
True, Kurama did save Naruto from threats. In Naruto shippuden you can also see what Kurama sees in one episode, I can't remember cuz I haven't watched it in a while. But that's when Naruto and Kurama team up in the war. Who's your fav character peoples? Mines Kurama ❤ Edit: Thank you for the 38 likes!!!
I really despise how the adults around him treated him except the few. Everyone should be thankful and worship him for not turning into the biggest tyrant that that that world has ever seen by the way they treated him and how powerful he has become.
0:09 We saw many times this scene, and if I remember correctly, usually there was Choji and Choza on one side and Shikamaru and Shikaku on the other instead of those random parents with those kids. Glad they understood it was a mistake... Cho and Shika were the very first two who decided to not leave Naruto alone, starting off with the trust of Shikaku, also the first adult not-Iruka that understood that the kid was not only Kurama's vassel but also a men. And for those who says that Choza was in the moviment of those who wanted to kill Naruto at the start of the manga, I want to remember you that, even if it actually looked like him, the Akimichi Clan surely did not even existed back then in Kishimoto Sensei's mind... a proof of this id that that guy had a random symbol on his chest armour totally randomized and not linkable in any way to the Akimichi.
What whatever you want about naruto, it was one of the best animes of its time. From the fights to the character development to emotional back stories, even of the villians.❤
Well actually the third gave him money expecting for naruto to buy stuff him self and what people have to remember while waching Naruto is that nauto didnt ask to have the nine tales inside of him
Naruto I feel was raised by Iruka cause while the third housed him and gave him money Iruka took the role as a strict parent. Reson 1: he was harder on Naruto cause he didn't have parents to teach him right from wrong. Reason 2: he showed him the value of those you cherish. Reason 3: he cared about his well being perfect example was during the chunin exam. He confronted Kakashi about recommending his team thinking he wasn't ready. Thought it may destroy him. Reason 4: he always treated him to Ramen and would have personal talks with him he probably knew Naruto better then anyone. Reason 5: He was the closet thing to father he truly had taught him responsibility and respect. He acted out for attention but that's what happens when you don't have constant care that a child needs.
@@demyrondaniels1381 when did he try to kill naruto maybe I'm forgetting something cause only time I can recall is the scroll in the beginning and his goal was too capture naruto not kill him
I know that the village really shouldnt have done naruto that dirty. But a big part of the story is him being accepted and embraced by the village, and without such a tragic back story it would never have been as good as it is, his heart wrenching past got us all rooting for him from day one and each time he grew closer to being accepted by the village and his goal we all felt so happy for him. And finally when he saved the village in the battle with Pain or however you spell it... we get that and it is as acomplishing as it is because he was such an outcast. I do agree though he deserved to at least have someone in his care as such a young child
It's definitely not Iruka who looked after Naruto as a baby. There's a flashback episode where it's shown how Iruka changed from hating Naruto like everyone else to trying his best to treat him like any other child he was teaching
Sir . U brother back all my good memories. I have watched this in my school times. I learned so many thing from this anima I love it and never go old. It is still very very famous in our country.
Lets also not forget during the Tobi incident that Hiruzen's wife Biwako was killed in the attack. If i need to hazard a guess until about 3 few knew he was the jinjuriki and was taken care of by multiple Anbu ensuring he nor they imprinted on each other.
Despite the road being dark and unsure this child, unloved with no mother and no father could have walked dark paths easily, instead he a barest of a boy set himself a goal along that path he made mistakes, he failed, and took wrong turns, but in the end two men helped him. Hiruzen who gave him the money he needed but no real love and iruka who in time did and was adopted by naruto. Through fire he walked, through pain and blood he moved, in death and loss of his loved ones he persevered, and finally he came to become his dream and is so beloved that when his tale ends i foresee the fandom across the world shedding tears for a fictional character who's guts to never give up inspired 2 generations.
Seem like naruto did not have enough spare cash to eat out or get enough groceries often. The Ramen shop had cheap but tasty food and it seem like naruto's groceries was Ramen also so like college student. Low food budget. It seem like one can not get a even a small Job at his age to have more spending money. If you run out of money ya you would have to go to the woods for free food.
it was because of Danzo let the village know Naruto was the Jinjuriki the 2 previous leaf jinjuriki no one knew they were one once the tailed beast was in Naruto Danzo took in his own hands to tell everyone so he would have control over Naruto on a tight leash and use him when needed this is why lord 3rd had the rule of no one was to speak of it and knew one knew he was 4ths son so because of everyone now knowing he’s a jinjuriki this changed for lord 3rd instead of taking Naruto in he visited made sure he was ok and watched from and far and gave him money every week or month. Also people blame Hiruzen for the uchiha’s and a bunch of other stuff but wasn’t his fault it was Danzo he’s the one who relocated the uchiha’s isolated them from the village and secluded them and had watch on them and he tried to stop shisui and took his eye making him late to meet itachi what made them both late to meeting to convince the clan not to betray the leaf and itachi had to kill his own clan Danzo even help orouchumaru and knew about the kidnappings of leaf villagers and the horrible things he was doing still help him he even made tried to break the peace agreement with the stone and also got his Foundation Anbu to disguise themselves as the stone shinobi and force Yahiko to kill and then telling lies about Yahiko’s group to Hanzo saying there group kills and aren’t looking for peace while his group aren’t trying to kill and are looking for peace so Danzo gives a fake name to Yahiko saying he’s a subordinate of Hanzo and is a Rain shinobi and Yahiko dies and his group attacked making Nagato active his power and join obito also Danzo tried to assassinate lord 3rd Hiruzen but Hiruzen found out and gave him a warning instead of killing him cause it was his moral code. Danzo has done so much that has hurt the leaf and thinks he’s helping it the Uchiha’s couldn’t even help in 9 tails attack cause he said to Hiruzen they might be behind it or control it and the 2 elders agreed, Hiruzen disagreed and didn’t like it but still went along with it so the uchiha’s only could get villagers to safety. I think when Danzo made the Foundation Anbu Hiruzen should have had spy’s on him if he done anything out of line kill Danzo he’s a threat to his own village. He even to Kabuto and his mother as spy’s brain washed her and tried to make both kill each other instead kabuto killed his mother. There’s legit so much Danzo has done I think Hiruzen’s only mistake was letting Danzo do the dirty work and letting him only control the Anbu division Known as the foundation because of this Danzo done so much terrible stuff and people blame Hiruzen also the 2 elders are also to blame for agreeing with Danzo and for not doing much and making terrible decisions. So I think Hiruzen is a good hokage it’s just Danzo that messed up everything. Danzo probably helped orouchumaru get in leaf to attack during chunin exams and what led to Hiruzen dying fighting orouchumaru. He also killed the messenger toad to get Naruto to stop pain and came late to village and it was destroyed all to stop Naruto to go near pain Also Mikoto wanted to take Naruto in but was denied for being a uchiha scared she might use him. Kakashi wanted to take him in was denied for being to young and he was a shinobi in Anbu so he would be away a lot and could die any time. Jariya couldn’t either due to being away a lot for infiltration missions like finding stuff on Orouchumaru and the akatsuki and could die while infiltration or on a mission and he also travelled to write his novels, he was also a candidate for Hokage and turned it down for those reasons.
He saw was being nice checked on Naruto in wood was like oh you’re fishing and asked could he join him and have some because Naruto has never had company or anyone to even have a nice conversation with or not giving him those horrible stares and never has had a meal with someone so Hiruzen checked on him pretended to be an old man sat with Naruto gave him good company and had a conversation with him no one has treat him like that to Naruto that was probably a precious moment to him and probably his first memory of meeting Hiruzen this meant a lot to Naruto to have that company Hiruzen was a great man and very nice and died for his village.
He was the son of the hero of the hidden leaf, but was treated like an outsider. Lord 4th and Kushina would have every right to start a reckoning with the village over how their son was treated. And sarutobi could have made an effort to place Naruto with regular children at an orphanage or at least clamp down on rumors of him being the reason the 4th Hokage was gone. Give him an opportunity to grow up like regular orphan.
I know “it’s just a story”, but you don’t know what you would do till in the situation. People are getting ready to find out though…just not the way they think. It’s a crazy world out there, y’all be safe.
To answer the question in my point of view Hiruzen was the one looking after him not directly but from the shadows. Hiruzen then being the hokage it was his duty to take care of the people in his village and especially since Minato and Kushina sacrificed themselves for the village right in front of his eyes he must have felt that he owed it to them to look after their son. Hiruzen couldn’t personally raise him maybe because he was dealing with a lot of hokage stuff (village restoration and healing after nine tails nearly wipped out the hidden leaf, then there is danzo that comes with it’s own set of problems, other hokage stuff etc) or maybe he had his own reasoning with the best intention in mind to not do so. There are a lot moments on the anime where he is observing Naruto hiddenly and sees how Naruto is getting treating and feels for him so it’s not like he was cold. There were other people too like the Ramen guy, Iruka, his own team, Kakashi, Jiraya who were there for him. All these people saved him, had it not been for them I don’t think he would have made it as others hated him. P.S he wasn’t raised by anyone in a typical manner but Hiruzen was looking after him and later came others that accepted and cared for him.
It's also sad cuz Naruto doesn't know what to do with his family in Boruto. More like considers the whole village to be his family, and sometimes choosing the village over his own kids. Which makes sense, hes looking for the future of all, not just his family. But I sometimes do wish he would have been there a bit more for his family in the beginning. At least the part where I'm at, he seems to be doing better as a father and husband than he was in the beginning of the series.
@@FieldsOfConfusion yeah, that's why I don't get the endless pointing fingers at who should've taken care of him or who failed him most when irl there are so many kids having to raise themselves despite having capable adults around them who can but don't take them in.
Just my thought, There was a lot to take in consideration regarding raising Naruto. He is the son of the feared yellow flash of Konoha, An Uzumaki and Jinjuriki of the Nine Tailed Fox and the more spotlight given to him could led him in more danger. I clearly think that Iruka is the one who watch over Naruto because he was the one asked by Hiruzen when he first steal the scroll. It was shown that Hiruzen also watched Naruto over a crystal ball, he even had found his whereabout. It was also a decree not to talk about the history of the Nine Tailed Fox to him as spilled during the same episode where Iruka saved him. They might be afraid that it could make him more unstable once he knew that the thing who killed his parents and many others is locked inside of him.
He was probably brought up the first few years in a secret area to keep him from the limelight, for his own protection from both the village, and his father's enemies. Hence why the knowledge of the 4th having a child was buried. And after a few years, Naruto was given an apartment, which Hiruzen would sometimes come over to look after him. Unfortunately, Hiruzen knew he couldn't protect Naruto as much as he could have. He was stuck with politics, and Naruto's upbringing was essentially nothing but political. So Hiruzen would simply bring him the necessities, and had to teach him the basics of managing money, so that he could survive on his own, which was something harsh that Naruto had to learn, in the even of the Third dying. It's probably also why Hiruzen would sneak out to spend time with him. He was under constant scrutiny, and he had to make a lot of hard calls, like the entire matter with the Hyuga, with Hinata's kidnapping and the death of Hizashi, Danzo's games, and the Uchiha's planned coup. It's also why he had to distance himself from Konohamaru as well, all the while wanting a relationship. Plus, Hiruzen was an old man. He didn't have as much energy anymore, unable to truly keep up with him. He loved the village, and he was traumatized from the loss of Minato, unable to truly choose a successor. And of the three candidates he wanted to consider, one went mad Nazi scientist experimenting on humans, the next being a lech that never truly stood still, and preferred being a spy (Not to mention avoiding certain responsibilities) and the third candidate still being a basketcase from the death of her loved ones, and opting for a hedonistic lifestyle of gambling and avoiding debt collectors. Hiruzen had to make hard calls. Just like Tobirama, hard calls had to be made. Tobirama inherited a mess, as well as a dangerous and constant threat to the leaf, and Hiruzen had to start by fighting a war, then a biblical disaster that destroyed the village the next time he had to step in. Of the troubles listed above, two out of the three major issues would have been resolved before Tobirama's term, if Hashirama chose Tobirama, instead of threatening him, rather than choosing Madara. I'm harsh on Hashirama, because he created a mess, that Tobirama had to mitigate, Hiruzen had to make hard calls that had long lasting effects from Madara's threats, (And Tobirama had to kick the can down the road... He knew the Uchiha would pull a coup, but it wasn't because of his policies... He knew it was more to do with Madara's influence, and his charm... He had a silken tongue, and with how he controls people... It'd be easy to manipulate his own clan, and turn them against the rest of the village. So the Second had to set things up that the coup would be as controlled as possible, with the least amount of blood spilt. Under Madara, it wouldn't just be a coup... It'd be a Civil War.) Minato suffered the repercussions of Madara's machinations and breaking Obito, turning him into Tobi, and Tsunade was finally the one to finish dealing with all the problems with the mad Uchiha's tantrum. It's a domino effect, and the reason why Naruto is alone is because of Hashirama and Madara. And remember that some of his treatment wasn't any better in Tsunade's dream. Considering the characterisation was consistent with the characters themselves, he would have been judged either way.
Kishimoto definitely started with the "Naruto the disliked village orphan" as a narrative starting point and filled in the story after that. Once you know the whole story it makes zero sense how the Leaf and Hiruzen treated Naruto.
Always funny to me how the village hated Naruto for keeping the 9 Tails sealed. Like he's literally the reason why it didn't cause any further harm to the village.
I'm disgusted by how the village treated him when his parents helped the village, his father was a hokage & he had everything taken away. It's so sad, but I'm glad he still has a few people that were there for him. Kurama understood his pain a lot more than many
Forget which light novel it was, or maybe it was one of the filler episodes. But after the Nine-tails attack Sauske's mom petitioned to have Naruto placed in her care so he could be raised at the same time as Sauske and grow up knowing love and family, but was denied. I'd assume due to Uchiha mistrust
I don't know of it was confirmed, but we do see Mikoto visiting a baby Naruto when he was in the hospital in the anime. But yes, the implication seems to be that even if Mikoto wanted to adopt him, she wouldn't have been allowed to.
Iruka is the reason why Naruto grew up very humble and down to earth. Iruka kept Naruto in check basically treated him as his little brother, he became his guardian until Jiraiya (the actual legal godfather to Naruto) finally took him under his wing. 3rd hokage made sure Naruto and Sasuke is out of Danzo's reach thats pretty much it, so he didn't raise them.
Not at all. Iruka hated naruto in the beginning like the rest of the village. He only watched over narutos as a teacher at the academy under the duress of the 3rd Hokage. Sure he slowly warmed up to him and kept Naruto in check but it wasn't until that whole fiasco with mizuki at the start of the series that Iruka even completely trusted naruto and let go of any resentemt. There relationship was definitely grounding for naruto and the best explored but also needed more development through out the series.
@@hira791 Iruka actually didn't hate Naruto he just didn't want to associate himself to Naruto as he remembers himself to him, but my point still stands that Iruka is the reason Naruto grew up as a good person
I think the single person in the village that took care of naruto most. Was the Ramen guy. Such an under appreciated character for real. That man knew how the village saw naruto. And never refused him service. Always made sure he was eating. I remember reading that the reason naruto loves Ramen is because the shop was the only place he felt kindness as a child. And that hits somewhere deep.
On a side note I need to rewatch naruto. It's been a while

Given how unchecked and underdeveloped he had been until Iruka and becoming a genin under Kakashi supervision, the Leaf is really lucky, that he had not turned resentful, bitter and vengeful on it.

He should have asked Kakashi.
Naruto's backstory is really tragic but I feel really bad for Sai. He was taken in as a kid and raised by Danzo. Who knows how many people he's had to kill under orders as a child. The dude needs to read books to understand what emotions are. I mean his dream is to be able to have a genuine smile. That's it, no power, fame, fortune, none of that just a real smile. How f'd up was his life
He got ino and a gud family and niw a black ops leader so guess all is well that ends well
bruh
Yeah
I love sai so much.
Same goes for other Ambu kids like Yamato and also for Kabuto.
If I’m being honest, the entire village, including the third and Jiraya failed Naruto. He should have have surrogate parents, but didn’t. He was left with a place to stay and an allowance his entire young life. I don’t think he had anyone do more than doing surveillance on him one he was 3-5. The show made it clear that he had no connections until Iruka at the end of his days at the academy.
And don't forget Iruka absolutely hated him until he almost graduated from the academy
correct, it was the plothole leave by masashi kishimoto, as he himself didn't plot the future story of this manga not as Master Oda of One Piece.. from the beginning we were told Naruto was left alone by the villagers, including 3rd Hokage and Kakashi just knew Naruto when he was in academy.
@@fryingpan63 Iruka never actually hated him wtf u on
@@rei0232 he actually did until he got to know Naruto
I wouldn’t say that third or jiraya failed Naruto (though the third could’ve done better), the third had to rebuild the village and was dealing with shit from both danzo and the uchiha clan. Jiraya couldn’t do anything since he had his duties as the village spymaster
Personally, I think Naruto needs a “What If” spin off of what would’ve happened if Naruto went evil. It would’ve been perfectly justifiable for Naruto to turn evil after all the shit he went through.
There's actually a movie where "evil naruto" exist. Not due to abandonment but other reasons. He was hella powerful and could use special jutsus.
@@thebakamooglegirl5307 You mean “Road to Ninja,” right? It’s a good movie but I don’t know if that counts as an evil Naruto.
He would’ve wind up like Obito
@@ishmeelcurry3394 except with Sage Mode, Kurama, and more chakra than anybody in the world. If Madara hadn’t been wearing his Uchiha tunnel-vision goggles, he would’ve had significantly more success with Naruto as well.
That's just Tobi, Incase you didn't catch that
He honestly turned out incredibly nice, well adjusted and empathetic considering how he was treated growing up. I feel like Gaara seems like a more understandable result of such prejudice.
Gaara had it worst, he was given care and guess wht? turns out the caretaker he so got attached to tried to kill him, ofc he'd grow up with trust issues and hate evryone, he knew he only had himself to keep him safe since his own dad issued an order to kill him, at least naruto was kept safe and never had to fear for his life.
Gaara actually harmed people. Even if accidentally. Naruto simply could not of behaved like Gaara without training to use the beast. Also Gaara also had personality issues. He might accidentally hurt someone

I really think both Naruto and Sasuke were treated badly as kids. They both really needed therapy and adoptive parents.
He is one of ghe greatest person is the movie
Ngl ever orphaned naruto character needed therapy
It builds character
No, i think you are the one who need therapy. They are not real wth, your solution is useless for them.
Sorry to say this but sometimes reality is harsh.
Sasuke wasn’t really treated badly though, he had most of the villagers supporting him, Naruto had virtually no one
I'm honestly disgusted by the way that the village treated Naruto. Even though he has the nine-tailed fox inside of him, he's still the honorable son of the Fourth Hokage, and the people who lashed out at him, rejected him, or treated him like a disease, should be ashamed of themselves. If Minato stayed alive and sealed the nine-tailed fox within himself, they wouldn't have treated him like that. They took advantage of Naruto's age to treat him poorly, because he was an innocent child who couldn't stand up for himself and didn't know any better.
The village doesn't know that naruto is minato son, but yeah they treated naruto very poorly
@@bynilou How didn't they know?
@@morningivy9006 Hiruzen thought that it was best that Naruto, being the son of the Fourth Hokage would be dangerous and should be kept a secret for his safety. That’s why his last name is Uzumaki instead of Namikaze.
@@jefftabita I still feel like they should know...considering he looks so much like Minato and nothing like an Uzumaki despite having their last name and the rest of his clan being virtually extinct.

@@morningivy9006 I'm guessing its because they just don't see past him being a jinchuuriki.

Honestly, given the fact that Minato was Kakashi's sensei I wouldn't be surprised if he watched over him voluntarily. He probably would've felt like it was part of his responsibility to watch over Naruto regardless if it was an order or not
Ya, but also kakashi is pretty self-destructive, after losing so many people he cared about, i would be surprised if he decided to keep himself busy as anbu on missions rather than watch over naruto
Lets not also forget too that kakashi's father committed suicide not too long after minato died and naruto was one of his reasons to continue living.
@@japanesemangalover Kakashi father off-ed himself when Kakashi was still in the academy, I believe. We know this because there is this one, or few episodes, showing Kakashi life, how he would say "I'm home" and "I'm leaving now" before heading to school despite no one being there anymore. Also I think Kakashi was a bit older than Naruto when he first met Raman Guy, as from another flashback we see Kakashi and Naruto lives being compared. But I still could be wrong.
@@japanesemangalover Sakumo committed suicide years before Minato’s death. Minato is the one that tells Obito (and also us the reader) about Sakumo and his suicide. It is literally the first mention we get of Kakashi’s dad in the series.
Kakashi’s dad was gone before he was a genin which was like age 6? After that his closest parental figure was Minato. So Kakashi was grieving the loss of everyone he had ever loved. He was taking dangerous missions and was self destructive, bordering on suicidal. Plus he was still young, people forget Kakashi was still a teenager when Naruto was born. Tho Naruto canon is weird with dates and ages.
So Kakashi was in no way prepared to care for Naruto.
Also his childhood was barely a childhood. Kakashi was a Chuunin and fighting in a war before his teenage years. Plus his family name was insulted quite a lot because the village used Sakumo as a scapegoat for the 3rd Shinobi War. His “childhood” was probably as unpleasant as Naruto’s. He probably thought of Naruto’s treatment as slightly harsh but not outside the norm.
Also, he was a genius, even as a child…I mean a 6 year old should not be a capable fighter, but he was. So he probably couldn’t really understand the physical or emotional abuse Naruto was experiencing because he processes emotions and develops at a much different rate.
But most of all, the man lost everyone he loved, I’m sure he checked in on Naruto occasionally but he was too young and too depressed to care full time. Plus I don’t doubt that the Third and Danzo warned Kakashi away saying “if Minato’s student care for him, people will figure out his identity quicker and bring enemies after him.” That would be the final blow to Kakashi’s emotional state.
I love Kakashi cause he’s been through so much trauma but is still standing. He’s an interesting character with a Fascinating backstory.
I mean as a kid he invented jutsu’s and was so quick to develop. I think the trauma and the stupid Uchiha Eye stunted his growth. Age wise , the years post Kyuubi attack should have been his peak developmental years in terms of skills and capabilities…yet they weren’t, he stagnated…
Truly an interesting character
Fact:
Sasuke's mom originally wanted to adopt him after Minato and Kushina died but it was forbidden. Can you imagine if Naruto grows up in Uchiha's household?
Yes, then also he would be a double orphan after the massacre. Only if Itachi would spare his life along with Sasuke. Either way, the two would be great brothers, if they weren't reincarnations of Ashura and Indra, who were real brothers (but still fought one another).
Maybe the show would take another turn, but still some things would be the same. Naruto looking for Sasuke to come back to the village for years and things like that. But the show would pass another messages, symbolizing the problems of relatives and brothers. Yes, that also gets passed , but the creator made Naruto like this, so that he would represent glimpses of hope to the life of others. A ball of sunshine through the darkness.
Good concept, eitherway!!!
the story would have been so diffrent...
eeew Sasuke's fans
Village elders, Danzo and Danzo's bitch Hiruzen would never have allowed it.
@ashesofhopesinabonfireofdr6341 Danzo and the elders for sure. I think Hiruzen wasn't necessarily Danzo's whipping post, but he was outnumbered in regards to mentality. Hiruzen's aim was to prevent Naruto from finding out what happened to his parents, so he wouldn't lose control of Kurama. If Naruto had gone to live with Fugaku and Mikoto, do you really think they wouldn't have told him at some point? Considering how close Kushina and Mikoto seem to be in flashbacks, I think it would've been hard for Mikoto specifically to keep that from Naruto.
The relations between Danzo and Hiruzen is simply being former teammates. Danzo and Hiruzen weren't chummy, anything but actually. It wasn't from Hiruzen's lack of trying though. Hiruzen's bravery is the reason Danzo didn't become Hokage in the first place and Danzo never got over that, Hiruzen knows this. Unfortunately, like real politics, one vote doesn't take the cake and you can't just get rid of your opposition when they have support from other politicians. Taking out Danzo would've caused a civil war in the Leaf because Danzo did have supporters, even in the Feudal Lord's court. It would've save a lot of future trouble though... Konan, Nagato, Itachi, Fugaku, Mikoto, Shisui, OROCHIMARU, etc. wouldn't have ended up the way they did if it wasn't for Danzo. However, Hiruzen didn't know about the Hanzo and Orochimaru team-ups to my knowledge.
I always thought Naruto growing up in isolation was drastically unrealistic. I know people might be afraid of him because of the 9 tails, but who in their right mind would let someone like that grow up without a rock solid family and support network? The village is almost unbelievably lucky he didn't go on a rampage at age 7.
It's more realistic than it seems. This is also Japanese. In America, the kid would be swept up and made into a millionare in Hollywood. In other countries, some kids are really on their own. Men in general become on their own even when they don't know it. Because there's a time when people just stop caring. He has to go out and make something of himself, and that means cutting ties with deadweights or naysayers holding him back. And having deadweight hobbies, people or things around is like driving a car with the handbrake on
@@CaptainFALKEN I don't think this is the same though. Naruto is neglected essentially from birth. There's no get it on your own when the whole village hated him, not indifferent. No one even helped him with the basics, if you recall, he struggles with something as simple as the clone and not a single person takes the effort.
Naruto is the only heir of the fourth Hokage who literally sacrificed his whole family to protect the village and their military strength(tailed beast), Leadership and select Jonin know this. I get he only has 50% of Kurama but to have one of your strongest assets, essentially someone who's nobility, completely uncared for, barely tended to, and untrained is wreckless. You can say Anbu was watching him but the level of his pranks shown early suggest this was occasionally at best. Replace Naruto as the target for the Hyuga affair and they would have lost him + he had no loyalty to even attempt coming back. Guaranteed Stockholm syndome with any attention.
Literally insane luck no one could peice together who Naruto was. Spitting image of Minato, bares the name Uzumaki (a destroyed clan with few straglers), the only line to host the nine tailes + the last name of Minato's wife and due to his features you can tell his isn't pure.
@@CaptainFALKEN no its not realistic at all when we talking about a kid that is a surreal weapon for the country and the son of a hokage, their parents dead not both of their family someone from kushina or minato family could take care of him , theirs a orphanage, and the 3 hokage could take care of him from again because is a F weapon and the son the hokage.
you forgot the context that the ninja world was in a state of conflict at the time; most people had trouble even taking care of themselves. there were multiple wars, and the village had only recently been attacked by the nine-tails a few years prior. ninja were still losing lives all the time during missions. naruto was not just a regular kid but seen as a sort of "ticking time bomb" if he lost control, posing a threat to the entire village including his caretakers. Glad that naruto proved himself in the end.
@@jbrkjferkjbekjb thats why its makes 0 sense to leave a ticking time bomb all alone whit out LOVE wtf theres a orfanage for that, u have a F hokage for that is not a poor person and if hes hokage he as responsabilitys plus makes no sense naruto having no family and because if a F bomb lk u said they should put him in anbu...... their alot of option based on the CONTEXT u just talking nonse sense, admit that makes no sense a monster weapon all alone from a young age
An important thing people miss in Naruto is that Iruka hated Naruto at first. Iruka blamed Naruto for his parents death and wanted nothing to do with him. It was thanks to Hiruzen that Naruto ever had Iruka. Hiruzen proved to Iruka that Naruto is so much like him. A child trouble maker always acting out so that he can have attention that he never got from his parents. Hiruzen made Iruka see that him and Naruto are much more alike than he knows and that’s what grew the Empathy and Love that Iruka has for Naruto.
The moment Naruto changed
When Iruka took a huge shuriken in the back to protect him.
Naruto does not understand it.
So he transformed from mischievous kid to more of better version
Kakashi also convinced him, remember?
👏👏👏 your spot on
Nah Kakashi convinced him. He was the one who told Iruka to give Naruto a chance. That is when Iruka changed his mind.
Is a difference between Naruto and iruka arouca would be more like he actually knew his Naruto didn't have a family at all but iruka took A shuricen to the back
Truthfully Naruto going down Gaara's path I feel would've been the common denominator for most of us. Having that kind of power ignited by emotions and the built up resentment? Ichiraku Ramen/Iruka may just have saved the leaf village as far as I'm concerned
Probably the world, considering the hidden powers he had at the end 🤣
Guess I'm just built different
theres literally a naruto movie about that ;)
@@jebes909090 please elaborate. what is the name of that movie?
@@msrsooraj naruto the movie : road to ninja. Its good stuff
Personally I feel like Minato would have been disappointed knowing how Naruto was treated as a child. Many knew he was the child of Minato and even after their (very tragic and noble deaths I might say) should have treated him much better. Including pervy sage. I felt Naruto was failed by everyone as a child. While yes I’m sure they did that to build his character and to show how he achieved everything while being a orphan and alone, but let’s be honest if Minato and his mother knew how is childhood ended up and how and that even Jiraiya didn’t come to his life until way later I feel they would be upset. They died for the village and for their son and they treated naruto that way in return? Fuck that. Especially Jiraiya. He literally named Naruto after a character in his book. That was his godson basically. So where was he? I would be disappointed. Even Kakashi who, yes he became his teacher….but they were under the orders of the 3rd soooooo. I don’t understand why they could of just stopped the bullying from the village and at least have someone be there to raise him. Minato died for them all, it’s the least they could do.
Also I know many many knew who his father was. Even that episode when that villager said “isn’t that the killed who killed the 4th” like wtf and shame on the third for allowing his people to treat him that way while he watched in the distance. Throughout the series that’s what pissed me off the most.
Kakashi is the special case of "under any other circonstances",
He is just as much to blame as the other especially as a teacher since he didnt really teach em much besides a shaky notion of teamwork that Naruto had to teach the others afterward.
But no one sane including Kakashi would force a teenager currently in Anbu mentally unstable after failing in his own mind to protect any member of his team and if it wasnt for ANOTHER trauma from his father's suicide would most definitly consider the option to even try and raise Naruto.
Sure one could question why Kakashi didnt start once he left Anbu, but he left Anbu a short few years top before the story starts, and he has been forced out of Anbu, he is still just as messed up, he is just old enough to hide it behind the mask and his lazy persona.
Had Minato or Kushina lived, he'd have taken care of Naruto, even if they were just in a coma, the mere thought that they could be back would be enough.
Had Rin survived (wouldve said Obito too but like he is responsible for the deaths in the first place) he'd have taken care of Naruto, even if they were teenagers.
If essentially anything happened differantly in Kakashi's life, he'd have taken care of Naruto.
Jiraya is most definitly the one that escaped his responsability the most, at least Kakashi had the excuse of youth and not being fit in any capacity to raise a kid, but justifying not taking care of your grandson under the guise of keeping up a spy network who is far less efficient than Root at information gathering (didnt know anything clear about the Akatsuki while Danzo litteraly participated in their deaths a few years back like lol), doesnt work.
Jiraya was was still traveling around like his prophecy said he was supposed to, and also still chasing after his friend, Orochimaru at the time. He was always off spying on and trying to get to Orochimaru while following the Elder Toad sage's prophecy that he should travel the world writing books and find an apprentice who will be the child of destiny.
When minato re sealed kyubi during pain fight, minato said that he witnessed everything naruto went through.
Nobody knew that it was minatos son , he explains when he later meets saying that revealing that will attact enemies
Yap yap yap
Naruto went through so much yet he kept his great attitude toward life and other people. It'd be hard to blame him if he followed a similar path to Sasuke whose world was turned upside down as a child. Glad they both found their happiness.
He didnt keep a great attitude, he developed it, in the beginning he was resentful and a delinquent, lonely and sad, but he at least kept his dream, what made him become. a better person were his comrades and the ninja around him like iruka, kakashi, sasuke, gaara, jiraya each of them influenced his path and character immensely
@@lionelinx7 Yeah, that's a better way to put it. Thanks!
Or end up like pre-chunin exams gaara, killing anyone he wants just for the giggles
the fact how naruto succeded in becoming a genin without any guidance, nobody educating him at home or giving him proper support and love shows what an exceptional person he always was. and he continued to thrive when finally the adults took up the mantle of responsibility (like jiraiya who until this point failed his godfather-role miserably). he learned the rasengan within a week while being 12 yo. what a champion. and dont even get me started on his character, which is the most wholesome in the world.
yes thats why the hokage was hanging around with him. narutos secret theme for the show was hypocracy. he spouted nonsense about hard work beating a genius while literally having teh the second best bloodline. being taught by the best ninja's in the village. haveing the most powerful being in the entire world sealed within him. and actually being a genius himself. and in the end, neji died to protect the main branch family and lee's hard work made him the weakest ninja in the villiage.
All he really had was chakra reserves though, it's the heart that's the most difficult to train
@@jebes909090 well said.
@@jebes909090 Im really tired of this stupid narrative. Its ridiculous that people still buy into this stupid video after all these years. You parrot it as if its true when it isnt.

Naruto had no guidance growing up at all. His bloodline was a secret for most of the show. His entire clan was slaughtered ruthlessly and he was only a half blood. Stop pushing this nonsense to sound smart and try and dunk on the fucking story you clearly know nothing about.
@@billybobbobson3797 neji made a choice to do exactly what he was born to do. and naruto got all his powers and abilities from the best teachers and the best bloodline. no guidence? the 3rd hokage himself administrated to naruto. the 6th hokage too as well as the 5th hokage. and his master was also chosen to be the 5th hokage.
I’ll never get over how heartbreaking Naruto’s past is. He just wanted love and attention…..the bare minimum things any child should have….
I know the writers were going for a certain narrative but his childhood was the saddest thing I have ever seen he deserved better and on top of that they talk crap about him and treat him like dirt that was an unnecessary part of the story to me. And then to see him embrace them because they recognize his power after he saved them numerous times. But all in all it had to be one of the best animes I've ever seen
It's amazing he didn't turn into a villain or an anti hero
@@aronamaambo9612 Yes indeed he really could've

Have to say, Hiruzen really dropped the ball when it came Naruto upbringing. He's the freaking Hokage, he could have hired someone, or appointed a secret shinobi to raise Naruto. You know he's the Jinchuriki, how does it make sense to give Naruto an excuse to hate the village. Ideas of revenge aside, his dad and mom gave their lives to save the freaking village. Had Minato and Kushina knew this is what you'd do with their baby boy afterwards, I think they would have second guessed the idea of sacrificing themselves. LOL
The history of naruto is full of holes. This made any sense leave the ultimate nuke if a children without any supervision, and just leave them alone
Who would've taken that job seriously though given the mentality towards Jinchuriki at the time? Especially the Kyuubi jinchuriki. No one. We saw what happened with Gaara when his uncle tried to make him snap. Imagine what would've happened to young Naruto had he been told about his parents. Couldn't risk it, which is why Hiruzen sought out Iruka. What no one noticed, except the viewers of course, was that Naruto already had someone in his corner. Granted she was hiding in the shadows to avoid getting caught by her prestigious family, but still. Lol.
The biggest fuck up was either not mentioning anything about the Bijuu inside snd presenting him as an orphan boy so hed just be treated like everyone else.
Or tell the full dtory of him being the 4ths and Kushinas son who sacraficed himself and personally sealed half the chakra. As well as him being watched so nothing bad would ever happen.
But to just leave him as "The child that caused the 4ths death and has the beast sealed? And lets not talk about letting Danzo do anything... he caused so nuch issues.
Dude should have been a bit better at taking care of Naruto, the villagers (except the younger generation and the Ramen guy as well Iruka after a while) and more dropped the ball hard. They were lucky this didn't created another Gaara.
@luisemoralesfalcon4716 Which is why Hiruzen assigned Naruto to Iruka. As for the younger generation, they treated him no better than their parents did at first. Only difference is they turned to openly mocking him rather than doing it behind his back. The only person that never discredited Naruto was Hinata, who snuck away was before the Academy days just to watch him train despite what her handler and father said. Even Shikamaru and Choji, weren't his friends until right before they started at the Academy. Sasuke was open about his acceptance of Naruto, but it was there to a degree during the Academy days after his family was massacred. The rest didn't really accept him until they all became genin, they followed their parents example until they saw enough of his character to have a conflicting opinion. 🤷♀️ But that became Naruto's goal... and he accomplished it very well. He definitely could've been another Gaara had it not been for Hiruzen and Kakashi helping Iruka help Naruto though. Hiruzen gives Iruka the task, but Kakashi helps him understand the true purpose for that task. Iruka wouldn't have been able to help Naruto without them.
I think it’s Actually beautiful that sasuke was really always there. he felt how the village ostracized naruto and definitely wanted to stand up for him. im glad they gave Naruto a true rival.
the biggest inconsistency was keeping naruto linage a secret. they kept saying it was to protect him. howevwr the entire village knew he was the nine tails jinjuriki. im pretty sure tat would had put a bigger target on his back lol
Danzo secretly leaked the information that Naruto is the nine tails jinchuriki. Pretty much every horrible thing that happened to kids from the hidden leaf was because of either Danzo or Orochimaru.
They threated Jinjuruki very different as compared to the Raikage village.
@@TheGago98 I hope he is cast in to the deepest depths of hell for it
@ Didn't they try to assassinate bee also? Also he was so chill that he didn't pay no mind what the other villagers thought of him.
It’s called retcons. It’s a two decade long story there was obviously revision to the plot . The other tailed beast to are a post timeskip addition to the story.
Shippuden era should be seen as 2.0 update to the story. Ninetails was just supposed to be a ninetails/demon and the same for a Gaara. They retconned the rest in.
well, in the first few episodes, Kakashi said that "so this is where he lives" when he visited Naruto's house, so this story of very kid Naruto is more likely retcon
I'm pretty sure Kakashi never actually spied on Naruto at any point
My biggest gripe about the later half of naruto is how it completely messes with the world building from the beginning
this is incomplete without Jiraiya. He was among the few who showed immense love to Naruto.
Gaara had it worse... his own father tried assassinating him multiple times and killed the person he thought loved him(his uncle) but found out he was one of the assassins. Everyone else feared Gaara including his siblings and they all saw him as a monster. Before fighting Naruto he thought killing was the only way to have purpose.
Edit: Thanks for the 1k likes I wasn’t expecting so much
So true!
So real bro
7:00 what episode is this?
I agree but I sympathize with Naruto more. Gaara had one fvcked up life and so did Naruto. The only reason I'm more sympathetic with Naruto is that he never gave up he had every right to but he never did. I watched this show when I was 7 and Naruto was always my favorite.
The thing is I related to his character maybe on a more minor lever but still. I was left out by everyone aswell and I had to work way harder than my siblings to even get a slight "Nice" from my parents.
When I stayed up till 12 studying so I could get A's on everything nobody cared. Though my older brother failed most of his classes and was taken out for ice cream when he got even a C. The few times I did get a C my parents went insane I was told I would amount to nothing and that I've failed them.
I was bullied by my father and brother aswell my father went as far to throw a knife at me one day. He'd done far worse and threatened to make my life hell if I told anyone, I didn't listen and he's kept his word.
I was hated by everyone at my school and faced bullying physical and verbal I have scars from this. Well everyone except for two people, my cousin and at the time my best friend. My cousin wasn't perfect but she was there for me, the only problem was I rarely saw her. My best friend defended me at school but eventually died due to a car crash.
Recently my family has been somewhat better but I still hate my very existence. The only reason I'm even here is due to my cat and the fact that I've finally got friends and someone I'm interested in.

Naruto had 3 grandfathers (Ramen shop owner-Teuchi Ichiraku, 3rd Hokage-Sarutobi and Pervy Sage-Jiraiya), 2 teachers that were as father figures (Iruka sensei and Kakashi Hatake), and a grandmother (the gambler-Tsunade). Even though he felt alone without a family, he grows to realize he always had it, and in the end the whole village, is his family.
Kakashi never really had a connection with Naruto until shippuden. Kakashis favorite was always Sasuke. Even Jiraya said 'What is the challenge to teach a jutsu to a genius student with sharingan' to Kakashi on chunin exam area.

Same. I m finally catching up with the series again, now that am an adult. Barely halfway of Shippuden now but all I do is cry lol. The things he went through did not change his heart. Naruto has a golden heart. He cares so deeply
I'm so completely shocked Naruto didn't have a Villain arc. He had every single justification.
Watching Naruto growing up felt too close to home. Growing up my Mom moved away and my Dad took a Trucking job, they divorced. So I was alone in the house for a lot of the time. Naruto not only made me make my Ramen as different as possible, but made me realize that I dont need to go villainous like others have.
Yea I have a similar story. When I was born my father was the leader of a village and when he and my mother died he put a demon in me. My local Ramen guy made me realize he wasn't just there to m0lest me and force me to watch him touch himself till he creamed in my ramen. He also taught me about life n stuff yea..?
did you mom seal a giant killer spirit into herself and then into you taking the life of both yourparents and leaving you a hated orphan by the village? thats some coincidence!
damn dude you were almost a school shooter
@Oong The Last Airbender lol "go villainous" is the most subtle way to imply a skool shooting
I’ve grown an even stronger appreciation for this show watching it again. Naruto’s character has quite literally kept me afloat from a deep deep depression I’ve been in since I’ve lost my mother. Truly a beautiful show.
please tell me...what happened
When sasuke had parents but died cuz of his brother but Naruto....... doesn't know what the love of parent feels like
what i know is that never know your parent is the kind of pain you can never heal from...even 20 years later
tbh, i think sasuke had it more painful 'Initially' than naruto. Its like... imagine a household full of people you interact with, then suddenly one day, you are all alone. feeling all the four corners of the room alone that was completely different to the previous setting. having someone to take care of you to an instant having absolutely no one. You only feel the loss of something because you once had it. different to what naruto may have experienced to having absolutely no one. Clue less of how a family works. He observes how family works but never feels one until the later. but still both are painful nonetheless.
@@almightybonbon I always think it is Sasuke who had worst life in Naruto his entire life nothing but tragedy. Even if No one Properly raised Naruto but there were at least few people who were concerned about him Jiraiya and Tsunade. Naruto never had family but Sasuke had good family that's why he understood loss of love-ones. Naruto felt that pain after Jiraiya died but Sasuke knew that feeling since childhood just to get to know his family killed by his own beloved brother
@@istiyakshaikh6471 Gaara had it worst. Feared by village, almost killed 6 times as a child. Had a family who hated him... he thought his own mother hated him...
I feel like there is a case to make here as to why Naruto appreciates the bonds he builds more than Sasuke throughout the series. Naruto never fit in, so he values and cherishes the people he meets along the way. While Susuke is afraid to lose the people, he let's in and sees them as a means to get more power. You can also argue that before stealing the scroll of forbidden jutsu, Naruto's strive to be Hokage was selfish and power lust, but after seeing Iruka sacrifice himself for Naruto's wellbeing he saw its better to get stronger for the sake of protecting the people you care about, and earning the Hokage position is about earning respect, not demanding it.
I would argue that it actually seems very likely that an orphanage did exist, or at least a system to care for all the orphans from the Kyuubi attack. This was a huge blow on the village, so my guess if Naruto was in fact in this sort of care, since he wasn't aware who Hiruzen was. he likely had to live on his own at some point due to Danzo leaking that Naruto was the Jinchuuriki. There's a high probabbility the orphanage would be a bad or even dangerous place for him. The best Hiruzen could do was treat Naruto separately from the other children without favouritism. Keep in my Minato had a LOT of enemies before he died. It was one of the reason Naruto's last name is Uzumaki and not Namikaze. To protect Naruto. So you can't really put extra protection and TLC into this ONE orphan unless you did it for the rest. People would get suspicious.
I agree, lee mentioned that he had gone to an orphanage after his parents had passed but made no mention on being adopted or still living at the orphanage. So as a ninja "adult" he had his own place just like naruto
Honestly never thought about those facts. It seems likely based on what's shown here. Thanks for the perspective!
His last name is Uzumaki because the Naruto series is based on a feudal Japanese system. Back then regardless of if it was the mother or father, the parent with the higher standing clan is the name the kids would take. Seeing as how the Uzumaki were a powerful clan and the Namakaze weren't that explains it. Your explanation is a fanfiction trope.
@@Nunya_Argo79 Kishi literally said in the manga his name was Uzumaki to protect him for Minato's enemies.
A lot of people always say that Hiruzen could have done more, given Naruto a far better life, but even with him being the Hokage, he had to be careful not to attract the backlash he'd get for being friendly with the "9 tailed demon". Danzo was the one who leaked the face Naruto had Kurama, and Hiruzen, despite his flaws, was far better to him then most.
The entire Village is extremely lucky Naruto didn’t become an enemy.
After the way they treated him and fuck the Third.
He failed in every way possible and then some.
@Every Day Humble True but it was certainly better than having the "strongest" tailed-beast jinchuriki joining the Akatsuki. But you gotta remember there's also the bad writing - plot holes and etc with Naruto having so many potential adoptive parental figures AND there's the laws about not telling Naruto about his background.
He would have sadly died early in his life if he joined the Akatsuki or became evil
Bro never judge a person without knowing what happened
And i will not judge third from that pov since he is shown to be much sincere in series
Tbf naruto didn't deal with the consequences of the pranks he did, even with vandalising the houses and faces of hokage. Hiruzan must've helped with that, because if that was a normal kid I doubt they would be treated the same
Facts. The only one I got love for when it comes to kindness would be the ramen shopkeeper Teuchi Ichiraku.
Kakashi is really the best.
Does so much in the shadow and doesnt ask anything in return.
One of the reasons why naruto's identity as hokage's son was kept secret was for safety reasons, for fear that he would be targetted as jinchuriki. I'd imagine that hiruzen had to keep a distance from naruto for those reasons too, though one would wish the village had assigned a caretaker to him. but we have to understand that the village in general had been plagued by war, etc, and didnt have great resources.
An example of no matter how bad your childhood is it doesn’t excuse you to become a bad person!
True
Yeah… Kakashi had the worse childhood and life growing up but he didn’t become a bad person. At least he had Might Guy
Ok naruto talk-no-jutsu lmao
No
Veritas
this is one of the most emotional animes ever
Naruto’s tragic story is beautiful he grew up to be a decent human being despite not being treated like a human at the very least.. he had nobody to be there for him just him alone in his thoughts and doing what he thought people should do and be kind and treat others w decency and respect. He was a gentle kid who was mistreated by everyone & wanted to be respected so he fought so hard to get that.. growing up I was alone a lot until I formed bonds w the people who looked out for me (my friends my friends at the time/few people dear to me) made me make my own family despite only having one parent as my entire family.. it sucked it wasn’t until I was a teenager that I made friends and grew up at a very young age.. despite of it all I’m happy with what I have even though not everything is perfect how I want it to be but it’ll be ok just gotta keep working towards it Datte Bayo!
everyone failed naruto until he made friends with Shikamaru and the incident in which Iruku finally stands up for naruto against mizuki
hiruzen tried his best to keep naruto's identity hidden. His identity as Minato's child would make him a target for those who hate Minato to the bones, and His identity as the jinjurikii. He supervised naruto's growth the ninja way.
Danzo also just loves leaking info about Naruto.
@@HDLLHANZ yeah but he knows what will happen to konoha if he leaked the identity of naruto. They had just suffered heavy loses due to the kyubi's rampage, and attacks from other country would mean annihilation for their village.He loves konoha on his own way, and i think that's the reason why he aimed for the power of uchiha rather than leak infos that could lead to the utter destruction of his beloved village
@@JV-yq4tz isn't basically what he did?
He tried so hard by spreading rumors that Naruto is the Kyuubi Jinchuriiki just so that Naruto could be kept under control, when that may have done more damage than letting Naruto living normally.
@@HDLLHANZ i think the rumors were spread internally, just inside the village since it was classified. If you remember on the chuunin exam arc, only the higher ranking officials from other villages knew about the kyuubi and it's host. Other ninjas were aware but doesn't know the real identity, not til they were told about it.
@@JV-yq4tz you are both wrong, Danzo spread the fact that Kurama was in the child's body on purpose. And Hiruzen was partly responsible because he knew of a lot of the shit that POS Danzo was responsible for but he could not being himself to punish him.
If a person is blessed with a teacher with a good heart, that person reaches great heights 😇
politics played a roll in Naruto's isolation being that he had the 9tails in him.
Exactly that’s why Hiruzen couldn’t take him in because Danzo leaked he had 9 tails in him so instead he watched him from a far and Mikoto uchiha wanted to take Naruto in but was denied for being a uchiha scared she might use him. Kakashi wanted to take him in was denied for being to young and he was a shinobi in Anbu so he would be away a lot and could die any time. Jariya couldn’t either due to being away a lot for infiltration missions like finding stuff on Orouchumaru and the akatsuki and could die while infiltration or on a mission and he also travelled to write his novels, he was also a candidate for Hokage and turned it down for those reasons.
@@silentwolfkills3924 Mikoto the MVP then. Imagine Naruto and Sasuke growing up as actual brothers. In that household the immensely gifted Naruto would have grown so strong even before entering the academy. Who knows, maybe Itachi wouldn't have had to kill his Clan even.
@@chico1786 yeah
The big issue I find with Naruto’s upbringing is that it leads you to believe that he should have turned into the villain of the series honestly. Why would he want to become the leader of a place where people either hate him or are indifferent to him. He should have grown up angry towards the village and towards Hiruzen.
Stockholm Syndrome? And honestly, a big part of the story is everyone realizing that they were wrong about him.
Thats the point he grew up angry towards the village that and to get at least some attention is the Reason why he behaved like he did as a child
In my view thats atleast part of the reason i love this Story because while most of the village Theater him like trash ther were some people that showed him kindness starting with the Ramen guy to iruka to Team 7 leading to the hole village admiring him what could have happened if he hat none of These is pretty mich shown with gaara so i think the Massage here is that a few people that show kindness and live can make the Differenzen between becoming einher a hero or a Monster

Great video. Thank you for the upload!
To see the heart-wrenching situations Naruto views and experienced throughout his young life.
He just wanted someone to be around,unashamed.
And for once to hug him close, tell him everything is okey, and told they love him.
0:46 The Naruto cutest smile.
If only the third hokage made a statement to not treat a literal child has trash to the whole village, that would have improved Naruto and Sasuke's life so much from the start
As i remembered he only ordered to konoha to not to talk about it, its forbidden to say that he has the tailed fox, the result is people of konoha looks naruto badly, hatred on their eye and keep their child not to play with him except shikamaru, his dad said its not wat it looks like but as well shikamaru is not interested on medling in others business
I love naruto....best ever anime.....I cry for naruto
You didn't complete the sentence: I cry for naruto 'in boruto'
Nah
The only anime that has lessons which teared me up most,ever
My dark opinion: The village and 3rd hokage kept their distance because he may have to kill him if the seal started to break. Those who were there for him time to time was those who cared. It was a mutal agreement between the elders to avoid conflict with one another incase narutos seal did break. No ties to naruto.
That's so dark and a great point. 😢
Yeap I agree with this point. Hiruzen has also had first hand experience with Orichimaru and not being able to kill him on the spot when he had the chance because he was too attached.
Nah I can agree that it definitely probably started out like that for most of them that was around him for a long while
a stupid opinion too since they had many seal experts who can seal the fox and they even supposedly had Anbu watching him 24/7, they were likely experts at seals so again, they would have immediately resolved the issue.
Simple reason is kishi fkd up.
He tried to fix this by doing all sorts of flashbacks but just made things worse and it made Hiruzen look like an idiot who made a stupid decision
Then what's the difference between danzo and hiruzen bruh

Naruto has the best life lesson the world could ever teach people. Even if your parents are losers or strict or barely there be grateful they are alive. Be grateful they gave you a life.🥰🥰 Naruto. Thank you kishimoto for this life lesson.
No….
Another life lesson is to implant the most dangerous weapon on your kid because....
no boasting here, but much of naruto is taken from hinduism is too ..
Gaara’s dad was around and he tried multiple times to have him killed and eventually drove him insane, so…
I uh, don't think the lesson you got here is very wise 😭
True, Kurama did save Naruto from threats. In Naruto shippuden you can also see what Kurama sees in one episode, I can't remember cuz I haven't watched it in a while. But that's when Naruto and Kurama team up in the war. Who's your fav character peoples? Mines Kurama ❤
Edit: Thank you for the 38 likes!!!
Sad When you find out Kurama dies though
@@wowditto yeah 😢
I really despise how the adults around him treated him except the few.
Everyone should be thankful and worship him for not turning into the biggest tyrant that that that world has ever seen by the way they treated him and how powerful he has become.
0:09 We saw many times this scene, and if I remember correctly, usually there was Choji and Choza on one side and Shikamaru and Shikaku on the other instead of those random parents with those kids. Glad they understood it was a mistake... Cho and Shika were the very first two who decided to not leave Naruto alone, starting off with the trust of Shikaku, also the first adult not-Iruka that understood that the kid was not only Kurama's vassel but also a men. And for those who says that Choza was in the moviment of those who wanted to kill Naruto at the start of the manga, I want to remember you that, even if it actually looked like him, the Akimichi Clan surely did not even existed back then in Kishimoto Sensei's mind... a proof of this id that that guy had a random symbol on his chest armour totally randomized and not linkable in any way to the Akimichi.
Now he has a family of his own and lots of friends 😢
What whatever you want about naruto, it was one of the best animes of its time. From the fights to the character development to emotional back stories, even of the villians.❤
The person who raised Naruto was the third hokage and Naruto himself
Well actually the third gave him money expecting for naruto to buy stuff him self and what people have to remember while waching Naruto is that nauto didnt ask to have the nine tales inside of him
@@zero_the_emo.505 actually after him and kurama starting getting along he basically did ask for kurama
Naruto I feel was raised by Iruka cause while the third housed him and gave him money Iruka took the role as a strict parent.
Reson 1: he was harder on Naruto cause he didn't have parents to teach him right from wrong.
Reason 2: he showed him the value of those you cherish.
Reason 3: he cared about his well being perfect example was during the chunin exam. He confronted Kakashi about recommending his team thinking he wasn't ready. Thought it may destroy him.
Reason 4: he always treated him to Ramen and would have personal talks with him he probably knew Naruto better then anyone.
Reason 5: He was the closet thing to father he truly had taught him responsibility and respect. He acted out for attention but that's what happens when you don't have constant care that a child needs.
@@christianneikirk3723 1 Iruka actually tried to kill Naruto 2 he didn't always take him to ramen
@@demyrondaniels1381 when did he try to kill naruto maybe I'm forgetting something cause only time I can recall is the scroll in the beginning and his goal was too capture naruto not kill him
I know that the village really shouldnt have done naruto that dirty. But a big part of the story is him being accepted and embraced by the village, and without such a tragic back story it would never have been as good as it is, his heart wrenching past got us all rooting for him from day one and each time he grew closer to being accepted by the village and his goal we all felt so happy for him. And finally when he saved the village in the battle with Pain or however you spell it... we get that and it is as acomplishing as it is because he was such an outcast. I do agree though he deserved to at least have someone in his care as such a young child
This hurts so much cause naruto kid is so cute, he's like the cutest anime kid i've ever seen
Iruka is the one that loved him the most in the end knowing that the nine tails killed his own parents
It's definitely not Iruka who looked after Naruto as a baby. There's a flashback episode where it's shown how Iruka changed from hating Naruto like everyone else to trying his best to treat him like any other child he was teaching
Iruka was just a kid himself who was made an orphan when Naruto was born.
Yeah but Iruka was the first to be kind to Naruto and that's why Naruto feels so indebted to Iruka.
Love this franchise. Got the right amount of everything. Emotions, storyline, dialogue….
im just happy that the Ramen guy was there when Naruto needed comfort .. where he won't feel any judgement and guilt and just be a kid.
His parents were watching him from inside......inner Naruto...
Sir . U brother back all my good memories.
I have watched this in my school times.
I learned so many thing from this anima
I love it and never go old.
It is still very very famous in our country.
Lets also not forget during the Tobi incident that Hiruzen's wife Biwako was killed in the attack. If i need to hazard a guess until about 3 few knew he was the jinjuriki and was taken care of by multiple Anbu ensuring he nor they imprinted on each other.
Despite the road being dark and unsure this child, unloved with no mother and no father could have walked dark paths easily, instead he a barest of a boy set himself a goal along that path he made mistakes, he failed, and took wrong turns, but in the end two men helped him. Hiruzen who gave him the money he needed but no real love and iruka who in time did and was adopted by naruto. Through fire he walked, through pain and blood he moved, in death and loss of his loved ones he persevered, and finally he came to become his dream and is so beloved that when his tale ends i foresee the fandom across the world shedding tears for a fictional character who's guts to never give up inspired 2 generations.
I've been watching this whole video with tears in my eyes... Naruto is so inspiring, dude
Hiruzen ain't shit. The fact that he had to run in the woods to try and get food. He didn't even provide food?
Seem like naruto did not have enough spare cash to eat out or get enough groceries often. The Ramen shop had cheap but tasty food and it seem like naruto's groceries was Ramen also so like college student. Low food budget. It seem like one can not get a even a small Job at his age to have more spending money. If you run out of money ya you would have to go to the woods for free food.
@@loganshaw4527 I think that was because he also had to pay rent for his home
@@zambekiller read a naruto fan faction that had the Mc live the same life as naruto.
it was because of Danzo let the village know Naruto was the Jinjuriki the 2 previous leaf jinjuriki no one knew they were one once the tailed beast was in Naruto Danzo took in his own hands to tell everyone so he would have control over Naruto on a tight leash and use him when needed this is why lord 3rd had the rule of no one was to speak of it and knew one knew he was 4ths son so because of everyone now knowing he’s a jinjuriki this changed for lord 3rd instead of taking Naruto in he visited made sure he was ok and watched from and far and gave him money every week or month. Also people blame Hiruzen for the uchiha’s and a bunch of other stuff but wasn’t his fault it was Danzo he’s the one who relocated the uchiha’s isolated them from the village and secluded them and had watch on them and he tried to stop shisui and took his eye making him late to meet itachi what made them both late to meeting to convince the clan not to betray the leaf and itachi had to kill his own clan Danzo even help orouchumaru and knew about the kidnappings of leaf villagers and the horrible things he was doing still help him he even made tried to break the peace agreement with the stone and also got his Foundation Anbu to disguise themselves as the stone shinobi and force Yahiko to kill and then telling lies about Yahiko’s group to Hanzo saying there group kills and aren’t looking for peace while his group aren’t trying to kill and are looking for peace so Danzo gives a fake name to Yahiko saying he’s a subordinate of Hanzo and is a Rain shinobi and Yahiko dies and his group attacked making Nagato active his power and join obito also Danzo tried to assassinate lord 3rd Hiruzen but Hiruzen found out and gave him a warning instead of killing him cause it was his moral code. Danzo has done so much that has hurt the leaf and thinks he’s helping it the Uchiha’s couldn’t even help in 9 tails attack cause he said to Hiruzen they might be behind it or control it and the 2 elders agreed, Hiruzen disagreed and didn’t like it but still went along with it so the uchiha’s only could get villagers to safety. I think when Danzo made the Foundation Anbu Hiruzen should have had spy’s on him if he done anything out of line kill Danzo he’s a threat to his own village. He even to Kabuto and his mother as spy’s brain washed her and tried to make both kill each other instead kabuto killed his mother. There’s legit so much Danzo has done I think Hiruzen’s only mistake was letting Danzo do the dirty work and letting him only control the Anbu division Known as the foundation because of this Danzo done so much terrible stuff and people blame Hiruzen also the 2 elders are also to blame for agreeing with Danzo and for not doing much and making terrible decisions. So I think Hiruzen is a good hokage it’s just Danzo that messed up everything. Danzo probably helped orouchumaru get in leaf to attack during chunin exams and what led to Hiruzen dying fighting orouchumaru. He also killed the messenger toad to get Naruto to stop pain and came late to village and it was destroyed all to stop Naruto to go near pain
Also Mikoto wanted to take Naruto in but was denied for being a uchiha scared she might use him. Kakashi wanted to take him in was denied for being to young and he was a shinobi in Anbu so he would be away a lot and could die any time. Jariya couldn’t either due to being away a lot for infiltration missions like finding stuff on Orouchumaru and the akatsuki and could die while infiltration or on a mission and he also travelled to write his novels, he was also a candidate for Hokage and turned it down for those reasons.
He saw was being nice checked on Naruto in wood was like oh you’re fishing and asked could he join him and have some because Naruto has never had company or anyone to even have a nice conversation with or not giving him those horrible stares and never has had a meal with someone so Hiruzen checked on him pretended to be an old man sat with Naruto gave him good company and had a conversation with him no one has treat him like that to Naruto that was probably a precious moment to him and probably his first memory of meeting Hiruzen this meant a lot to Naruto to have that company Hiruzen was a great man and very nice and died for his village.
He was the son of the hero of the hidden leaf, but was treated like an outsider. Lord 4th and Kushina would have every right to start a reckoning with the village over how their son was treated. And sarutobi could have made an effort to place Naruto with regular children at an orphanage or at least clamp down on rumors of him being the reason the 4th Hokage was gone. Give him an opportunity to grow up like regular orphan.
Hiruzen not only failed and neglected naruto but also ate his fish. What a Hokage😂
😂😂
I know “it’s just a story”, but you don’t know what you would do till in the situation. People are getting ready to find out though…just not the way they think. It’s a crazy world out there, y’all be safe.
To answer the question in my point of view Hiruzen was the one looking after him not directly but from the shadows. Hiruzen then being the hokage it was his duty to take care of the people in his village and especially since Minato and Kushina sacrificed themselves for the village right in front of his eyes he must have felt that he owed it to them to look after their son. Hiruzen couldn’t personally raise him maybe because he was dealing with a lot of hokage stuff (village restoration and healing after nine tails nearly wipped out the hidden leaf, then there is danzo that comes with it’s own set of problems, other hokage stuff etc) or maybe he had his own reasoning with the best intention in mind to not do so. There are a lot moments on the anime where he is observing Naruto hiddenly and sees how Naruto is getting treating and feels for him so it’s not like he was cold. There were other people too like the Ramen guy, Iruka, his own team, Kakashi, Jiraya who were there for him. All these people saved him, had it not been for them I don’t think he would have made it as others hated him.
P.S he wasn’t raised by anyone in a typical manner but Hiruzen was looking after him and later came others that accepted and cared for him.
3:03 that Naruto broke my heart
It's also sad cuz Naruto doesn't know what to do with his family in Boruto. More like considers the whole village to be his family, and sometimes choosing the village over his own kids. Which makes sense, hes looking for the future of all, not just his family. But I sometimes do wish he would have been there a bit more for his family in the beginning. At least the part where I'm at, he seems to be doing better as a father and husband than he was in the beginning of the series.
Fantasy part aside, Naruto's childhood story written as it was is common in reality.
For real ! I think it was intended so it'd resonate with lot of people
@@FieldsOfConfusion yeah, that's why I don't get the endless pointing fingers at who should've taken care of him or who failed him most when irl there are so many kids having to raise themselves despite having capable adults around them who can but don't take them in.
The back stories on a lot of the Naruto characters are just real tear jerkers!! 😢❤
Just my thought, There was a lot to take in consideration regarding raising Naruto. He is the son of the feared yellow flash of Konoha, An Uzumaki and Jinjuriki of the Nine Tailed Fox and the more spotlight given to him could led him in more danger.
I clearly think that Iruka is the one who watch over Naruto because he was the one asked by Hiruzen when he first steal the scroll. It was shown that Hiruzen also watched Naruto over a crystal ball, he even had found his whereabout.
It was also a decree not to talk about the history of the Nine Tailed Fox to him as spilled during the same episode where Iruka saved him. They might be afraid that it could make him more unstable once he knew that the thing who killed his parents and many others is locked inside of him.
He was probably brought up the first few years in a secret area to keep him from the limelight, for his own protection from both the village, and his father's enemies. Hence why the knowledge of the 4th having a child was buried.
And after a few years, Naruto was given an apartment, which Hiruzen would sometimes come over to look after him.
Unfortunately, Hiruzen knew he couldn't protect Naruto as much as he could have. He was stuck with politics, and Naruto's upbringing was essentially nothing but political. So Hiruzen would simply bring him the necessities, and had to teach him the basics of managing money, so that he could survive on his own, which was something harsh that Naruto had to learn, in the even of the Third dying.
It's probably also why Hiruzen would sneak out to spend time with him. He was under constant scrutiny, and he had to make a lot of hard calls, like the entire matter with the Hyuga, with Hinata's kidnapping and the death of Hizashi, Danzo's games, and the Uchiha's planned coup. It's also why he had to distance himself from Konohamaru as well, all the while wanting a relationship.
Plus, Hiruzen was an old man. He didn't have as much energy anymore, unable to truly keep up with him. He loved the village, and he was traumatized from the loss of Minato, unable to truly choose a successor. And of the three candidates he wanted to consider, one went mad Nazi scientist experimenting on humans, the next being a lech that never truly stood still, and preferred being a spy (Not to mention avoiding certain responsibilities) and the third candidate still being a basketcase from the death of her loved ones, and opting for a hedonistic lifestyle of gambling and avoiding debt collectors.
Hiruzen had to make hard calls. Just like Tobirama, hard calls had to be made. Tobirama inherited a mess, as well as a dangerous and constant threat to the leaf, and Hiruzen had to start by fighting a war, then a biblical disaster that destroyed the village the next time he had to step in.
Of the troubles listed above, two out of the three major issues would have been resolved before Tobirama's term, if Hashirama chose Tobirama, instead of threatening him, rather than choosing Madara. I'm harsh on Hashirama, because he created a mess, that Tobirama had to mitigate, Hiruzen had to make hard calls that had long lasting effects from Madara's threats, (And Tobirama had to kick the can down the road... He knew the Uchiha would pull a coup, but it wasn't because of his policies... He knew it was more to do with Madara's influence, and his charm... He had a silken tongue, and with how he controls people... It'd be easy to manipulate his own clan, and turn them against the rest of the village. So the Second had to set things up that the coup would be as controlled as possible, with the least amount of blood spilt. Under Madara, it wouldn't just be a coup... It'd be a Civil War.) Minato suffered the repercussions of Madara's machinations and breaking Obito, turning him into Tobi, and Tsunade was finally the one to finish dealing with all the problems with the mad Uchiha's tantrum.
It's a domino effect, and the reason why Naruto is alone is because of Hashirama and Madara.
And remember that some of his treatment wasn't any better in Tsunade's dream. Considering the characterisation was consistent with the characters themselves, he would have been judged either way.
Kishimoto definitely started with the "Naruto the disliked village orphan" as a narrative starting point and filled in the story after that. Once you know the whole story it makes zero sense how the Leaf and Hiruzen treated Naruto.
F the 3rd hokage, he lame... He ain't really do what Minato told him to do.
Always funny to me how the village hated Naruto for keeping the 9 Tails sealed. Like he's literally the reason why it didn't cause any further harm to the village.
It was so long ago but why am I still crying!! Naruto Shippuden will always have a special place in my heart!!
4:18 my heart goes out for this scene💔😢
I'd join Akatsuki if I was treated like that
I'm disgusted by how the village treated him when his parents helped the village, his father was a hokage & he had everything taken away. It's so sad, but I'm glad he still has a few people that were there for him. Kurama understood his pain a lot more than many
The beginning its hurts me soo much😢😢😢
Forget which light novel it was, or maybe it was one of the filler episodes. But after the Nine-tails attack Sauske's mom petitioned to have Naruto placed in her care so he could be raised at the same time as Sauske and grow up knowing love and family, but was denied. I'd assume due to Uchiha mistrust
The people with the Sharingan controlling the Kyuubi? Hell no.
I don't know of it was confirmed, but we do see Mikoto visiting a baby Naruto when he was in the hospital in the anime. But yes, the implication seems to be that even if Mikoto wanted to adopt him, she wouldn't have been allowed to.
This breaks my heart. Mikoto was such good friends with Kushina :(
Naruto could have been a villain. And I wish he would've been. He got the perfect back story for it
Iruka is the reason why Naruto grew up very humble and down to earth. Iruka kept Naruto in check basically treated him as his little brother, he became his guardian until Jiraiya (the actual legal godfather to Naruto) finally took him under his wing.
3rd hokage made sure Naruto and Sasuke is out of Danzo's reach thats pretty much it, so he didn't raise them.
Not at all. Iruka hated naruto in the beginning like the rest of the village. He only watched over narutos as a teacher at the academy under the duress of the 3rd Hokage. Sure he slowly warmed up to him and kept Naruto in check but it wasn't until that whole fiasco with mizuki at the start of the series that Iruka even completely trusted naruto and let go of any resentemt. There relationship was definitely grounding for naruto and the best explored but also needed more development through out the series.
@@hira791 Iruka actually didn't hate Naruto he just didn't want to associate himself to Naruto as he remembers himself to him, but my point still stands that Iruka is the reason Naruto grew up as a good person
Minatos genius, he put kurama inside naruto so that he will be protected, but ironically thats not what happed.
Hiruzen was a regular man: didn't care about others, only about himself. The reality reflecting the anime.
Naruto father assigned Kakashi to protect him with other ninjas
Them and kakashi did great jobs dramatic pause not kakashi and the other sucked at protecting Naruto
@Anarky wrong kakashi was the only anbu that was supposed to be protecting kushina
