- His personality: Everyone ignored him, everyone disrespected him, everyone hated him ... The kid didn't even know why because no one answered his questions. It had to be a living hell... Feeling so hated and all alone without even knowing why.
But still, this kid remained cool. He was not hating or disrespecting on others. He still knew the difference between good and bad.

- His mentality: It's just admirable. He has a strong own mind and will always follow that. People can not manipulate him easily.

- His guts to never give up: Everyone and everything was against him, but look now. Now he is saving everyone's asses. He never gives up. Not in live, not in battle. He keeps trying, he keeps resisting, ... Like epic Jiraiya said it: Naruto Uzumaki or... The Guts To Never Give Up.

- His loyalty: Even after the village hated so hard on him, he was and IS still a very loyal shinobi from Konoha. I respect that, loyalty is something you need. And Naruto has it for 100%.

- His friendship: He is a very good friend and respects them a lot. I also like how he keeps trying to save Sasuke because he understands how Sasuke feels... Kishi over-reacted during the Kage Arc, but oh well... It's nice to have such friends like Naruto!

- His hard work: Naruto is one of the hardest workers in this manga. He trained for most of his power-ups and that is nice. For example some other characters in this manga are strong but didn't need any training... I think that is lame and cheap.

- His badassery: Naruto had many badass moments so far. First thanks to Kurama (I admit that), then when he was in Sage Mode and now in Bijuu Mode. He reminds me of some kind of Berserker when he fights. A barbarian, but then a goodhearted one. I like that! A goodhearted badass.

- His motivation: I like how he thinks. It may be unrealistic in the real world, but this is a shounen so... He wants to rescue the world from it's hatred, even knowing that there is a huge chance this can mean his death. That's called being noble.

- His bond with Jiraiya: Yes, Naruto also has strong bonds with Sasuke, Iruka, Kakashi, Gaara, ... but his bond with Jiraiya will always be my favorite. These 2 were such an epic and amazing duo. Strong, funny, strange, interesting and perverted. I like how Naruto also sneeks on the girls like Jiraiya always did. Like sensei like student! ;)

- He is one of the only rookies (and Lee) who actually showed several times interest in girls which is only normal and healthy. I like how he had a crush on Sakura during part 1 but now he moved on and maybe... soon... who knows, NaruHina? We will see in the future. :)

- His flaws: Naruto is not perfect and that makes him the perfect main character. Sounds strange? Not really. I dislike perfect main characters, they are boring. Naruto isn't a Mary Sue and that's fine!

I like Sasuke because he is Sasuke.

Oh and the diverse techniques that make him one of the most bad ass Shinobi alive.

Oh and the fact he is just so cool looking.

Oh and the fact that he is good again.

Naruto is cool and all, but to me Sasuke is way cooler. Nice read though. Rep for effort :D

He still is quite dumb, like making a Rasengan right after he analyzed Nagato's power was like Pain's 6 path, but then again he's smart for knowing how to beat the 3rd Raikage.

Nice :)

Yes, a good main character needs flaws. That makes the story more interesting

I miss J-man :(

You rather wish a perfect main character without any flaws? :)

What's going on ?

Its about a character yet there is no arguing or boasting of made up feats /:

I heard of threads like this before.

Never thought i would actually see one.

I hope this puts naruto in a different perspective

Naruto is going to grow up and be just as suave as his daddio

Yeah, Naruto is one of the few main characters of an anime that aren't just plain annoying or perfect. I can't stand Ichigo in bleach, nor can I tolerate Inuyasha too much...

But Naruto's cool.

I like Sasukke's techniques as well, but I hate his current personality. He was way better in part 1. One last thing, I don't think he's good again. It'd be awesome if he was, but I think he's planning a radical change that might destroy everything the shinobi stand for.

There is nothing special or notable about Naruto—he's merely a manifestation of a character that pertains contextually to the Shounen manga stereotype. Are there any real differences between Naruto, and, say, Luffy for example? Itachi, and Sasuke are both much more complex, well developed and unique characters.​
