Naruto It stands out for many positive aspects, from the story to the animation.
It is true that its regular chapters were not great, to put it in some way. However, the studio never let us down when it came to the fighting. It was clear that the better prepared animations cost more money, but boy were they worth it.
Next we will talk about the Naruto’s best animated fighting y Naruto Shippuden.
Naruto contra Sasuke (Little ones)
The first serious meeting between Naruto y Sasuke defined the series forever. Both ninjas recognized each other not only as colleagues, but also as close friends and even brothers.
But because Sasuke he felt he had to go his own way, they both had to face everything. The choreography of this fight is so good that it even received a remastering in Shippuden with better visual quality.
Many scenes became famous, from the skating on the water to the rapid blows and transformations. And not to mention the final attack of both.
Madara Uchiha against the Ninja Alliance
One of the confrontations that will never go out of style will be the beating that he gave him Madara Uchiha revived the ninja alliance in Naruto
The combat itself may have less merit since it happened after showing us how incompetent most of the ninjas present were. Furthermore, the clone of Naruto I was recharging my strength and the secondary characters were slow to participate.
All this allowed Madara He will clean the floor with the recruits. Being the first appearance of the villain, the animation studio did it big with a series of quick fights against several ninjas at the same time. The fact that Madara he didn’t use ninjutsu he just made it better.
Killer B contra Sasuke Uchiha
While Naruto He continued to search for his friend. Sasuke Uchiha joined the Akatsuki with the task of hunting down the eight-tailed jinchuriki, Killer B.
Their meeting was somewhat short, but impressive. Killer B was not intimidated by the numbers and gave us an eight sword fighting lesson. Despite this, the movements looked fluid and his unique fighting style made the entire battle a joy to watch.
Later on he transforms into the eight tails and the fight becomes less hectic, but the animation doesn’t get any worse.
Sasuke contra Itachi Uchiha
It is noted that the creators of Naruto they took the time to animate the long-awaited battle between the brothers Sasuke e Itachi Uchiha.
At first the animation is weak, because they only use normal attacks and a lot of genjutsu. However, when physical attacks began to be launched, we noticed how the color palette is sharper, with paler colors and better line quality.
The movements of this battle look spectacular, full of red fire, black fire and even lightning. Orochimaru coming out of the curse mark was very fluid, not to mention the quality of Susano. even see Itachi
Obito contra Kakashi
very similar to Naruto y Sasuke, Kakashi he must face his childhood best friend.
The meeting between Kakashi Hatake y Obito Uchiha It was very brief, but full of nostalgia. The transitions between his young and adult versions were incredibly smooth. The hand-to-hand combat was enjoyable despite being so fast-paced, and each scene conveyed the pain of both ninjas.
Surely many questioned whether they wanted them to fight or make peace.
Naruto (Kyubi) contra Pain
For better or for worse, the animation of the combat between Naruto and Pain is one of the best known in the series. Especially the part where the Kyubi confronts the Akatsuki leader.
The way the fox forms as it fights was a work of art. You can see the work behind the animations of the water and earth particles in the environment constantly disintegrating.
The controversial part is that some frames of the combat look “weird”. But the reality is that they were intentionally made that way to show us that the characters moved with incredible speed. One we have never seen.
This match was a complete visual treat from start to finish filled with all the action we like to see in a shonnen.
Naruto contra Sasuke (Shippuden)
The final battle of the series as far as Shippuden refers to could not be other than a rematch between Naruto y Sasuke.
Both kept the feelings of their first meeting, but now knowing that the fate of the world depended on the result. For three long chapters the animation became like a movie, and you could admire any point you paused.
The battle starts soft with some nostalgia, showing us the passage of time in Naruto y Sasuke, as well as his honed basic skills. But between perfectly animated kicks and jutsus, the combat goes to heaven in their chakra forms. Suddenly, powers that could destroy mountains start flying like nothing, and they both attack each other with never-before-seen abilities.
Con Naruto y Sasuke worn out the combat slows down, but the animation does not drop in quality. In fact, they show us an incredible high-contrast cinematic in which both characters speak with their fists.
The final bare-knuckle fight is both epic and emotional, and can still be enjoyed with tears in your eyes. In the end, both face each other with a final attack to the death. Even the final scene was full of symbology about friendship and determination.
A combat that never goes out of style, and an animation only surpassed by a work of the gods made in Boruto. But we’ll talk about that another time.
