As the title says I'm actually new to this! I read a Naruto in Shonen Jump, and have gained a lot of interest in this anime. I'm torrenting the first 25 episodes from animeyume and I was wondering if some people could answer some questions I had, while being careful not to spoil surprises I would enjoy!

Who are the villains?
Who is the strongest villain?
What are their purposes?
How many ninja vilages are there?
Does this anime ever "jump the shark" (keeps going when it should ended or changed) like Rurouni Kenshin did?

Again, be careful not to spoil surprises, even if it means you can't answer a question!

1. Orochimaru, Kabuto, Itachi, members of the Akatsuki.
2. Not sure.
3. Forgot.
4. 4, I think. Not sure.
5. Yes, I didn't watch all the episodes but it was really, really long.

Rurouni Kenshi (Samurai X) is like, the perfect series. In my book anyways.

Now about Naruto, I just got into it like a while ago. They're currently at the Chuunin Exams: The Perliminaries. If you live in the US anywhere that is. Currently it's Naruto vs. some dude with a dog to fight with.

I think after that is Rock Lee vs. Ghada (spelling).

Since I started WAY late, I don't know much but I do know that it's long.

I also heard from other members that there are fillers that kinda lead the story another way.

...anyways, Naruto is cool. Might add it to my list soon...

...strongest villain?...itachi PWNZ orochimaru...XD...but there are stronger ninja than itachi...itachi just beats them all in coolness...


...the purpose of akatsuki is to collect all the biju [tailed beasts]...


...the anime is boring [too many fillers]...but the manga is better...

Do Itachi or Sasuke ever flashback to old days to before Itachi killed the clan? Is there an episode thta shows that massacre? And was Itachi ever a nice guy? Don't tell me what set him off if it's a spoiler though!

We don't even know what sets itachi off, he's still full of mystery O.o

If it's about jumping the shark, maybe it's because they make too many fllers lately. But unlike RK which manga has ended, Naruto manga still continues now.

There are A LOT of ninja villages, but only 5 ninja countries

Any other question? I know quite a lot about naruto...

Hmmm...what determines the stronger ninjas?

DNANGEL: And back to RK really quick, I LOVE this show, but it did jump the shark after the Shishio Arc. It was OK, but it did just not live up to the other episodes in th eseries. In the Manga and Samurai X movies though, you see the Arc with Einishi. Now that is good stuff! I just think of the post Shishio TV series as a Kenshin bonus, not part of that great series though.

Their rank... I think.

The highest is Hokage, 2nd is Sanin. There are also Chuunin and Juunin. I forgot which one is higher.

Oh, I meant what exactly sets their strength apart, like magic or scrolls or something?

Oh, techniques... Don't know much about those but there are high level and low level techniques. Some can only be done by higher level ninjas like the Rasengan that only Jiraya, the 4th hokage and Naruto can use.

...the level of jutsus that they can perform has something to do with it...some are high level [Shoten no Jutsu (Shapeshifting Technique)(s- rank)], while some can be used by most nin [Shunshin no Jutsu (Body Flicker Technique)(d-rank) ]...

...you mean the 'Hiraishin no Jutsu (Flying Thunder God Technique)[s-rank]'...its how the fourth got the nickname 'Konoha no Kiiroi Senkō(the Yellow Flash of Konoha)'...

...Now that's one jutsu i've never heard of... Hey where did you get that name from? I'm pretty sure the manga never mentioned it... But if you're talking about the anime then... I don't watch them -_-

And i thought you said you're going to get some sleep...

Edit: *reads itachix's edit* Dude, that's shunshin no jutsu! The one which he moves in a flash right?
