Lord Crow- nuff said.
Le Sauce/Nahretard- nuff said.
Mad Eye/ Hashiramen- you know why.
Ramen sennin- fed the squad.
Kakashit- kinda trained the young super sennin and covered them with his plot shield a few times
Hinatard- if she didn't get REKT by pein then no kyuubi rage save.

Shouts to:

Kaguya- rabbit beast fruit bandit.
Hagoromo- what a dad right?
Endya/asshura- chakra hogs.
Shinshu tree- made the good stuff.

Gaara? United the disgruntled Shinobi Alliance with his awsome speech otherwise there would be no unity there.

Iruka: Naruto would have turned out to be a loser wtiout his monitoring

Bee: help naruto confront his dark side and find common ground with his beast

Kurama: saved Naruto's ass every battle

Jiraya: influenced so many

Oro: again played a massive part in plot

1- Sasuke: The main catalyst and the central core element of every single plot line. Take him out and there is nothing to Naruto.
2- Obito: He created the Akatsuki, was behind the Nine-Tails attack that led to the massacre.
3- Danzo: He connects Konoha and Pein arc and Orochimaru's arc nicely.
4- Itachi: He makes up for the missing pieces in the puzzle.
5- Nagato: He was pivotal to the threads that connect Danzo, Obito, Konoha and Sasuke together.
6- Madara: He founded Konoha with Hashirama. It's through him that you learn the history and that ends up connecting nicely with Sasuke's Clan.
7- Naruto: Despite being a main character, he is never a catalyst and the above-mentioned have moved the plot for him. He's just a superficial character.

Honorable mentions:

8- Orochimaru: He connects sand, Danzo and Uchiha arc nicely.
9- Tobirama: Though, he's unheard of for the most part of the plot, his plotline reconnects with Sasuke in the war arc.


The rest are literally irrelevant, to be honest. Kakashi adds little or nothing to the plot other than being a teacher. His past develops Obito more than him. In fact, it only developed Tobi more. Anyone in their right mind knew Tobi was Obito. It was too obvious.

0. The Sage of Six Paths Families (Without Them no Story)
1. Naruto
2. Sasuke
3. Obito
4. Itachi
5. Danzo
6. Iruka
7. Madara
8. Minato
9. Jiraiya/Kakashi
10. Hashirama

Naruto and Sasuke are the main Characters nuff said.

Obito is the main reason why Naruto and Sasuke and countless other people's lives were so messed and if Naruto had a Main Villain then he'd be it.

Itachi is the reason why there's a character named Sasuke, without Itachi there would be no Sasuke or his character would be completely different.

With Danzo so much stuff could have been avoided Uchiha Massacre, Akatsuki, Kabuto going dark, Pain invasion and the Nine tails attack.

Without Iruka, Naruto's character would have become completely different.

Madara was the one who was pulling the strings and without him no Obito and no Obito pretty much means no story.

Without Minato literally there would be no Naruto.

Plot Relevance:

1. Naruto
2. Madara/Obito (Without them no 9 tails attack that kicked off series)
3. Obito/Madara
4. Sasuke
5. Kakashi
6. Hashirama
7. Minato (Set up plot for Naruto)
8. Itachi (Set up plot for Sasuke)
9. Danzo
10. Black Zetsu

Story Line Relevance (Meaning not how they affected the plot or not revolving around the point that the plot wont be the same without them, this is just based on the size and importance of their role in the series)

1. Naruto (The Protagonist)
2. Sasuke (The Deuteragonist/Anti-Hero)
3. Obito (Central villain, been causing troubles since Naruto was born and had alot of connections with both MCs, including the time he was Masked and behind the scenes obv)
4. Madara (Main Villain, the bigger bad behind Obito, took over at the end)
5. Kakashi (Team 7 captain)
6. Minato (Anticipated character, Naruto's dad)
7. Kabuto (I had to choose between him and Oro for the list and Kabuto was the one who actually carried out Oro's plan and was a more important villain towards the end of the series)
8. Itachi (Big role since part 1 to part 2)
9. Jiraiya (Naruto's master, only important good guy to die)
10. Pain (Presumed big villain for a good couple hundred chapters)

Itachi is next up. Last should be tobimara cuz even tho he caused anger in uchiha clan it didn't lead to much. It was during danzo and thirds reign where shit went loose

Fail post. Kakashit's plot shielded fodder

Who gives a shit?

Infact that proves he's relevant because the more plot shield you have, the more of a main character you are.

Sakura hardly has any panel time to consider her. How can there be plot shield for a character that isnt even in the plot to begin with.

plot relevance? lets see
naruto top as default so excluding him.

1. sasuke-i mean nearly the whole series is about bringing him back with the mc chasing him all over. always moves the plot forward plus concluded the series with his speech, nuff said.
2.obito- involved in kyuubi incident and uchiha massacre that made naruto and sasuke orphans which are huge plot points in the story. formed the main villain group underground and started the 4th war that brought shinobis together.
3.itach-involved heavily in the development of sasuke, killed off the uchiha
4. madara
5. jiriaya
6. Danzo
7. Orochimaru/kabuto

and so on

I dont understand why Madara is too low in majority of members list in story relevancy?

People here I think talked about characters and plots development of manga and not Naruto verse base story and history.

Its like people gave credit of relevancy to the countries that can produce Nuclear missile but not the person that invent nuclear power or weapon.

Who moved the plot forward?

Outside of Naruto himself, in no particular order because there's no way in Hell to actually calculate this.

Itachi
Madara
Obito
Sasuke (Note how it's mostly Uchiha's)
Minato
Jiraiya
Kakashi (His Gaiden connected with Obito, and don't forget his War Arc story with Obito and his plan helped in defeating Kaguya. Not even going to touch Part 1)
Orochimaru heavily moved the plot as the main villain in Part
Akatsuki [All]

These are just a few from the top of my head, though when it comes to the characters that are the top three (No order again):

Naruto
Sasuke
Obito

I say Obito because he was connected to both plot points of the MC's; Uchiha Massacare, and the Kyuubi attack.

Not only that he was the one who acted as Madara and started the Shinobi war, and who controlled the Akatsuki. I would mention BZ/Kaguya but I hate those characters so much that I don't want the readers to throw up as well :lol

Glad that Obito is finally getting the recognition he deserves.

Whichever final villain that shows up and says they masterminded the entire story (3 villains do it, it's not cool or unique) you're forgetting 7 years+ of manga that clearly had Obito at the beginning, middle and end of the story.
