My way of the ninja ........


You probably must be thinking what crazy shit I am up to now. Well after almost hitting with hammers and stealing purses (read ALMOST) I have totally become a fan of animation. Not that I was not one before. Somehow I feel that I can connect with it. Once again I am not in an inebriated state while writing this.

It all started when I was watching bleach (another famous anime ). All my friends were like, stop being ostentatious by watching, if you want the real deal watch Naruto. Being the hard guy that I am to convince, I refused to watch it for quite some time. I thought that it would be some pithy attempt at an animation series filled with ninja crap. But thankfully one day I got bored enough and decided to give it a try.

Naruto is the story of an orphan names Naruto ( obviously ) living in the hidden leaf village of Konoha. When he was young a mystical beast called the Kyubi or the Nine tails fox was trapped inside of him. But because of that the villagers hated him and stayed the hell away from him. They used to eschew him. But  despite this attitude of theirs, this ebullient shinobi wanted to prove his worth. It was no doubt a hard road. Iruka sensei was the first one to acknowledge his existence. Soon he found new friends in Sakura and Sasuke. The srory then goes on ......with many unpredictable twists and turns and a panegyric background score. Naruto is the story of an ebullient Ninja ( some of whose jutsus may be a little gregarious ) who dreams of becoming a hokage.

After listening to that jargon you must be convinced that I am some kind of anime freak. But I do have a reason to watch it. Even I consider watching it a peccadillo cause it takes so much time. But then it gives back a lot to me. In today’s world it is quite difficult for me to idealise someone. So I guess I needed a fictional character to do it. You can actually learn a lot from the will of fire Naruto has inherited. Thats all that I have to say about him. You should watch it to believe me.
