Naruto Is The Best Anime Of All Time For These Reasons

From Bleach's ethereal synthesisers and choirs to My Hero Academia's exhilarating heroic music, several recent anime shows have fantastic soundtracks that can get any fan amped. Despite this, it's simple to understand how Naruto's OST became one of the finest in the genre.

The Naruto OST combines two seemingly disparate forms — current rock and traditional Japanese music — to create something really distinctive and unforgettable that is greater than the sum of its parts. Naruto's OST also has some of the finest comedic relief and sorrowful music that any anime could hope for.

Any fictional protagonist requires a purpose or a plan to propel their character arc forward, and anime heroes are more than capable of delivering. Some anime protagonists, such as Bleach's Ichigo Kurosaki, have aims that are too vague or too modest, such as only protecting his companions. That is admirable, but it has no bearing on the storyline.

Meanwhile, Naruto Uzumaki worked hard to attain his goal of becoming Hokage, which is a difficult but particular aim that can be reached with enough risk-taking and hard effort. This is a fantastic example for anime lovers who may be encouraged to make a personal goal that is both achievable and ambitious.

From Bleach's spirit energy to Jujutsu Kaisen's curse energy to Fairy Tail's magic and curses, fantasy anime series typically have their own battle systems and energy systems to match. All of these energy systems are excellent, but none of them compare to Naruto's chakra system.

Chakra may be used for a wide range of ninjutsu and genjutsu, as well as summoning jutsu, enhancing physical assaults, walking on water, directing wooden puppets, and even utilising the chakra of a tailed beast. Different elemental kinds, such as yin and yang, are separated into this energy system.

Many anime series use a time jump of a few years to advance events and illustrate how far the characters have progressed, but Naruto accomplishes it better than any other series. Naruto Shippuden is the name for the post-timeskip sequence, and "Shippuden" has become a slang term for any post-timeskip plot.

Naruto Shippuden sets a new bar by portraying Naruto and Sakura maturing in every way – they are no longer scared youngsters trying to make ends meet. They've grown into proactive, self-assured young adults capable of handling any scenario, with new foes and stakes to contend with than ever before.

Even if chakra and tailed monsters aren't real, the finest anime programmes present timely and thought-provoking topics that can be applied to real life. Naruto went on to explore the topic of vengeance and hatred, which is all too familiar to anime fans.

In the actual world, individuals, organisations, and nations alike seek blood for blood, resulting in a circle of hatred and violence in which everyone finally forgets who threw the initial punch in the first place. As a result, Naruto's Six Paths of Pain comes across as a terrifyingly relevant and important evil, rather than just another thug intent on global dominance.

The forehead protectors were first devised by manga artist Masashi Kishimoto so that he wouldn't have to continually drawing Naruto's goggles, but they quickly became an integral aspect of the Naruto character. These metal headbands are common among ninjas, and they are emblazoned with emblems that signify the wearer's place of origin.

These headbands have become a fixture of the anime fandom, with other anime programmes imitating them, either as a pop culture reference or a light mockery of Naruto. These iconic headbands are also excellent items and are simple to wear by any Naruto fan.

Naruto, like One Piece and Bleach, was part of the original Big Three, and it borrows many inspirations from Akira Toriyama's iconic Dragon Ball franchise. However, in the wrong hands, Naruto would have turned out to be a cheap knockoff of Dragon Ball, disappointing fans. Things, however, did not go according to plan.

Instead, creator Masashi Kishimoto cleverly adapted Dragon Ball's concept while carving out Naruto's own personality and themes, allowing these two interconnected series to stand out in all the right ways. Naruto's Dragon Ball DNA will appeal to any action anime fan, but it's far from a copy; Kishimoto has lots of original ideas.
