Okay, so characters in Naruto almost always yell the name of the attack they do.
WHY?!
It always bothers me so much, because there is no reason for them to do it.
Do you ever see a boxing or MMA match and hear them shout "upper cut no jutsu". No. Because it would waste unnecessary energy and won't help them. Or better yet when people fight randomly, you won't hear them shout "punch punch kick".

Sure it can sound epic at times, but when you really think about it, it loses all of its epicness because it's plain retarded.

I always wonder how they don't have their throats sore in the end of a long fight.

To let the user know what attack is being used.
TBH, a message could be shown at the bottom of the Anime and Manga telling us what the Tech is called.

If they don't yell the attack how would the reader know what they're using?

True maybe it works when u actually SAY IT.so any jutsu may work when u say it.sometimes they say it inside their mind so sometime u dont see them shouting

A because we need a name for minor techniques or B. Because the adrenaline makes them?

But shooters don't yell "BULLET" every time they fire a bullet.

Yes, they all bother me too. But how does it help you? I mean they can always write the name of the attack without the user actually saying it.

I like it when Goku (English Dub) shouts KAME HAME HA! Those moments are always epic.

it just would not be the same if they did not yell out the name of the attack it would make the fight less interesting to me

They don't have to say their jutsu I think, just do the signs. For example, when I play NUNS3, (Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 3), they don't shout the jutsu every single time they use wood jutsu, amaterasu, ect.

But they must have to take some throat medicine after a fight. XD Though a real question would be is how do you get enough air for fireballs, without making yourself look dumb?

"Madara: *LARGE ENHALE* Fire style... Great...fire... annil- *accidentally burns mouth when exhaling*"

Fireball mistakes must really damage your lungs and throat and mouth..

lets use goku for this he is the most famous meathead lol if he never ever yelled out kamehammeha we would not know what tech he used or if it was different than say big bang attack that being said they dont need to say it every time i agree but it is what it is and i like when goku yells it but it does get annoying and unuseful but they do it so they can be different from other attacks that would be seen as the same attack specially dbz when everyone uses ki if they didnt have names they would look all the same ...mostly
