ANIME TEACHES || NARUTO UZUMAKI

 From founding boring to falling in love with the manga series and anime Naruto, it seems my comprehensive and perceiving abilities improved a lot. The way Kishimoto [creator of Naruto] presented Naruto is just praiseworthy. All the characters of the Naruto series represent deep philosophies of their own, which make the whole Naruto series full of learnings. Naruto, being the protagonist has its own interesting approaches and hence form a subject of interest for all the people out there, who’re fond of philosophy and are inquisitive about something new to grasp.  Kishimoto had described the journey of Naruto quite adroitly, which made people including me fall in love with the character Naruto. Apart from Naruto other characters also teaches us a lot, but today we gonna talk about our most admirable character Naruto himself. We will be decoding the philosophy of Naruto. Now, let’s dwell on it.

    NEVER GIVE UP ON YOUR DREAMS

Since childhood, Naruto had a dream of becoming the Hokage of his village. He always wanted to be recognised and respected by everyone in his village. He was so dedicated that he can go far beyond his limits in order to achieve his dream of becoming Hokage. Naruto was so confident that his iconic dialogue, “ Believe it!’’ hits hard every time he use it. He was ready to bear any pain to fulfil his dream of becoming Hokage one day.

FRIENDSHIP - A BOND FOR LIFE

Considering friendship more precious than anything else in his life, Naruto was always ready to sacrifice everything to bring back his best friend Sasuke. Naruto was always ready to die for his friends. He literally considered the bond of friendship something too valuable to lose so easily. A number of times, Naruto jeopardized his life for the sake of his comrades. In the whole Naruto series, he frequently mentioned a special bond that existed between Naruto and Sasuke and he believed that bonds meant more than a bond of friendship to him. 

LEARN FROM THE PAIN  

Naruto had faced the pain of solitude and despair since his childhood. He was always poked and insulted by others. All the people in his village used to acknowledge him as a vessel of a 'Nine-tailed monster' or 'Jinchuriki'. No one ever tried to understand and acknowledge the soft heart of the child. He experienced the pain of loneliness and rejection and hence was able to empathize and understand the feelings of others who faced the same. Perhaps this was the reason, Naruto was able to make friends and change their behaviour and perception in such a fascinating way. For instance, he completely changed the monster of the sand, Gara, into a kind-hearted person, who later on was able to become 'The Kazekage'.

NEVER LEAVE YOUR COMRADES, NO MATTER WHAT!

Well, this philosophy originally belongs to Obito but this is worth mentioning because our hero, Naruto also believes the same. According to him, comrades value more than rules and the missions, so, it's okay to break the rules in order to save your comrades.
