Naruto tells the story of Naruto Uzumaki and his many friends and enemies as they travel down a path of self-discovery.

Naruto himself is an aspiring ninja who was abandoned and shunned by the people in his village, Konohagakure. Unbeknown to Naruto, the Fourth Hokage (leader of the village) captured the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox and imprisoned him in Naruto when he was only a baby. The process killed the Fourth Hokage and the rest of the village blamed Naruto for the loss.

After graduating from the Ninja Academy, Naruto learns the truth about his past and he sets out to complete his quest of self-discovery and hopefully become the next Hokage of Konohagakure himself.

The characters of Naruto are well-crafted with even the serious and plagued Naruto himself presenting a notable silly and playful side. Each character brings his own set of skills to the table along with personal demons, and each has the opportunity to learn and grow by facing new challenges and truths.
