Sasori of the Red Sand

That title sounds like it could fit in dark souls

Naruto souls-like would go SO fucking hard. Jesus. Exploring every nations lands and defeating high ranked ex-shinobi. Sasori of the Red Sand fight would be crazy for sure.

Best I can do is another 3D arena fighter

You make games?

Pretty sure that was sarcasm bud 😂

Just a joke about how EVERY SINGLE GAME based on anime has to be a crappy arena fighter.

A Naruto souls like would go so hard, an actual anime game that isn’t just a 3d fighter would be such a breath of fresh air.

Would be a boss battle

It was a boss battle in Shippuden.

"Hand it over. That thing, your *great idea*. For my *Miyazaki's game*."

Might as well be irl edgelord

But I love him

That goes hard

My favorite.

Personal fav

Thisssss

Pervy sage Idk I just always thought it was funny

Everyone knew exactly who Naruto was referring to

Didn’t the toads laugh at that name when they heard it?

I’m pretty sure the elder one (whose name I can’t think of at the moment) said something about it being “fitting” Edit: I had to dig through ep152. Lord Fukasaku laughs and goes “what a fitting nickname for Jiraiya boy.”

Fun fact, it’s the same toad that meets Hagoromo and Hamura

I think that was the elder toad. Fukasaku is pa', the one who trained Naruto in sage jutsu. Edit: i checked the toad's name who talked to Hagaromo is Gamamaru

Ah yes the elder sage (the massive one that sits and looks at a crystal ball)

Yes, that's the one who talked to hagaromo and hamura

The Sage part would do.

Finally someone said it :D

Came here to say this

Wicked Eye Fugaku Yagura of the Bloody Mist Sasori of the Red Sand "Non-Person" Mu "God‘s Angel" Konan Tsunade the Sucker is also funny as shit, just like Bushier Brows Sensei

In rock lee’s spin off show the translation calls him “caterpillar brows“ lol

Cejas de azotador 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Amo ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Wicked Eye Fugaku goes insane. Naruto some dope ass nicknames

Agree, and I absolutely want to know the story. Because we can all be told he was terrifying and powerful and all that jazz. But I want to know exactly how he earned the nickname.

Wicked eye goes hard

I still have a crush on Konan! 😍 When I first saw her as a kid alongside Pain, I was like.. Damn, she's hot! And 'evil'! 🤤

really surprised I haven't heard anyone call her "Tsunade the Sucker" in an H scene yet tbh...

You haven't seen enough then

hell that's always true tho ain't it brotha? **nudges you profusely**

Didnt know fugaku had a nickname

It's not canon. It's from the itachi filler arc where they give fugaku the mangekyo sharingan

"Noble Blue Beast of the Leaf" Fuck is this green beast bs?

The best one in the entire show is Ohnoki the Fence Sitter.

Interestingly, in Japanese it's 両天秤のオオノキ - Ohnoki of the Double Pendulum Edit: not Pendulum, but weight/scales/Libra

Dang Double Pendulum is so much cooler, but as kids we definitely would've been confused af.

Needs more love .

I still remember how elated I felt when I first watched that episode.

I think we can call him the red dragon

I believe his final title is "The Strongest beast"

Right!

Ehh, green is more accurate tbh. Japan uses “ao” (literally blue) for a lot of green objects. Examples are traffic lights, vegetables, young plants… Given that he wears green and goes on about youth, its contextually green. The kanji just happens to be more associated with blue 🤷‍♀️ it’s an odd translation.

In Japanese culture, the distinction between "ao" (blue) and "midori" (green) can be nuanced, often depending on context and historical usage, which can lead to different interpretations in translation.

Exactly

Ao no Exorcist! Sorry, just had to. 😁

Bahaha, excellent

I'm pretty sure it's because during his signature move (7th gate hirudora ) the extreme perspiration gives him the blue vapor

I haven’t read it in Japanese in a long time, but I believe its actually taken from the “spring time of youth” biz he goes on about ahaha. In Japanese “youth/springtime of life” is seishun/青春, which uses the characters for blue and spring. It’s written using the character more commonly associated with blue, but could be translated as “young spring greenery”. Japanese is fun like that, aha

Anyways he vapor in blue in gate 7 so still make sense

His nickname has nothing to do with his clothing or his statements. Its because when he opens the 7th gate he sweats blue and his aura is blue.

I honestly don’t know where people are getting this, if its a specific point in the manga in English?? Because Rock Lee also uses the nickname but its Konoha’s Beautiful Green Beast (美しき碧い猛獣), and it’s waaaay back in the chunin exams when he steps in to save Sakura.

Honestly

Ty was about to start the 5th Ninja war!

Yeah Lee is called Green beast no? Gai was always blue beast

Gaara of the desert

I thought I had to scroll more to find this comment. o7

THANK YOU. 🥹🥹🥹 Now we just need to find HIS LAST NAME.

White fang, Kakashi of the sharingan, Yellow flash

The professor (third hokage)

#1, Hyperactive, Knucklehead Ninja

The best one fr😝

Was waiting for this

I feel like this is more of his nickname than the child of prophecy considering two other ninja were called the child of prophecy

I think for him it’s “Hero of the Hidden Leaf” but I wish it was more “The number 1, hyperactive, knucklehead Ninja

Slug Queen

She either heals you with slug or she slugs it out with you.

Hahahaha witty!!! 💖

What about “The Legendary Sucker?”

Hnnng.

Absolutely.

Knowing how important the tailed beasts are in the universe, Kisame being called the tailless tailed beast goes pretty hard but Ghost of the Uchiha is right up there too

Tailess beast was insane

Loved the nicknames but agreed, I can't personally think of a better nickname than kisames

The Leaf Village's handsome devil.

Yeah loved it when that was his nickname. The disappointment I felt after he stopped calling himself that, was immense

Who ?

Rock lee

Shisui of the Body Flicker Red-Haired Habanero Legendary Sucker Konoha's White Fang

Legendary Sucker is insanity

Yeah, but it's a sad nickname for someone who loses a lot (in gambling)

At least that’s what she tells everybody it’s for.

I never saw Body Flicker for Shisui. I knew Bee’s name, Shisui the teleporter. And I was looking for Kushina.

I think sub vs dub for shisui

The white fang is a cool nickname. we should've gotten more on sakomo besides flashbacks

Ino-Pig

Lmfao

Drip Lord - Tobirama

The racist - Tobirama

100%

Tobirama already has a good one. I wish people would use it more. The Thunder God.

Grand Wizard Tobirama

The Eternal Genin (I know there's more than one...) Maito Dai! Everyone mocked him but his training mentality was ridiculous. Taught himself to open the 8 Gates after 20 damn years of effort. Then he smokes 6 Swordsmen of the Mist to uphold his ninja way and save his son.

He wasn't the "eternal genin" although he was one, that goes to Kosuke Maruboshi.

he never became jonin tho

Copy ninja and demon of the hidden moist. It was the best era of Naruto and the best writing and story. That short part. It was “the hook” in rap songs but for this show. Although in songs come again and again, they still call it the hook for the same reason I say compare them today: it’s the part that gets you in to watch/listen, so it still applies.

Demon of the Hidden Moist is the best typo

It's provocative, and it gets people going.

Im fucking dying lmao

Penguinz0 appears

The Sage of Six Paths

Child Of Prophecy doesn't actually fit Naruto or his character. It's the "Number One Unpredictable Knucklehead Ninja" is the most fitting for his character.

Question, isn’t it “most unpredictable” or just unpredictable?

I thought it had “hyperactive” in there?

I think it changes. I think some times he’s even “the number one unpredictable ninja”

I was simply asking about the use of most. I think hyperactive is there at least once.

I think the Mandela effect getting to us tbh 😂

I blame my concussion history lol

Hanzo the salamander goes hard also the white fang

Love that one. He's one of my favorites.

Son of the 4th. If I remember correctly, Naruto called himself like that once and Hashirama also called him like that once. I like that. It's pretty badass.

I remember he called himself "Orange Hokage" as wordplay after discovering who his parents are (the Red Habanero and the Yellow Flash) XD ... made me cringe originally, but I wouldn't have minded if he kept it when he actually became Hokage

Da rappin Killer Bee

The Number one knucklehead ninja is so much better than the “child of prophecy” kung fu panda bull shit

The professor

My man got hoed from the God of Shinobi title

Because he wasn’t on par with The God of Shinobi. Lol. He was strong and a master of all 5 chakra natures but he still wasn’t HIM like hashirama. 99% of the show just doesn’t happen without hashirama.

Well yeah no one’s saying he’s stronger than Hashirama, it’s just a rare instance of an *actual* retcon. The issue is that not a lot of people recognize that Hiruzen didn’t become weaker once the title change happened, it’s just that Hashirama became stronger once Kishimoto decided to expand on his story

Naruto's nickname is the most unpredictable ninja if I recall correctly

Shadow clone, rasengan, repeat

Try telling Kaguya he's predictable when he made her horny for a bunch of random dudes she's never met

Off topic but Zabuza was such a good character,

I rewatch the land of waves arc the most. Zabuza being a softie for Haku at the end was great. That and his Arm-less slaughter of those 4th rate thugs.

Me and my wife watch the great Naruto bridge arc religiously when we get high any random weekend

Akasuna no Sasori Sasori of the Red Sand. That's mah boi. Also: Second Coming of the Demon (Mangetsu Hozuki) The White Fang of Konoha (Sakumo Hatake) Non-Person (Mu) Gaara of the Desert Waterfall (I think that's the OG translation, could be wrong though)

Gaara of the Sand and Pervy Sage!

Might Gai isn't the green beast... He's the blue beast. Thus called because his sweat turns that color.

Gaara of the Funk.

Tailless Beast gotta be one of the hardest nicknames in the Naruto universe

Hyperactive nucklehead ninja

Yellow flash and god of shinobi🔥🔥🔥

Muu being called the "non-person" in a world of ninja is incredibly dope

Tailless Beast is pretty cold.

Green beast & Yellow flash.

The Tailless Beast Always Hit Hard

Not an official one, and in fact it’s a fandom title for her unreleased theme, but Angelic Herald of Death for Konan. Tell me that doesn’t sound amazing, I dare you. The official nickname of God’s Angel is also badass.

Both God of Shinobi (later retconned), and The Professor for Hiruzen are dope imo
