Naruto - Recommendations

nextolast says...

So you want fight/battle scenes... and lots of them. Both are really long series, and both have great fight/ battle elements. But it is really in the title characters attitudes that you will seee the resemblance. They really grow on you in their stubborness and rough attitue, and in their ability to overcome succesively greater obstacles

motoman9213 says...

If you like InuYasha or Naruto chances are you'll like the other. They both contain a main character who grew up as an outcast because of the demon in himself (whether sealed or through blood), they both are also very stubborn and are constantly striving to become stronger. Not only that but they pick fights with just about anyone who gets in the way of their goals, so you know you'll see plenty of action. Another major plus is that they are both very long series so you'll be watching them for quite a while.

sasnin14 says...

There's something that makes you want to keep watching Inuyasha, just like Naruto; but it's just a charming or gut feeling. The background story is really important in both of the anime. They share something unique that can't be described with words, you'll just have to see for yourself.

RevIeryPone says...

Both Naruto and Inuyasha feature a wide variety of characters. The main characters each have a dark past, but want to overcome it and gain respect. The supporting characters are also very well developed and are interesting to follow. Another plus is that there's plenty of action. So if you like action mixed with a side of tragedy and drama, you'll like both of these anime.

augurssj3 says...

Villians make a story good. Both series contain smart villians with complex plots. they both pace well and are great at adding new element even when the series gets long.

Oehr says...

There are many similarities in both series: Battles, demons, love, perverted characters, evil, many episodes and whatever. While Inuyasha is made up of concluded episodes, Naruto has a longer and more detailed story throughout the series. You decide watch you liked more!

love4Sora says...

Both shows involve travelling around in search of various things. Whether is an object, or a person. Characters can be simular at times as well.

Jess3579 says...

Both Inuyasha and Naruto have long spanning plots as well as smaller episode by episode conflicts. They also both include a combination of action and comedy, and fantasy elements. 

akatsukiJuS says...

Both animes have similar characters and themes... in naruto is about becoming a strong shinobi and in inuyasha is about becoming a legendary monster. There is also a little romance between the main characters and is a long fight between good and evil..

cakeorrdeath says...

These shounen animes have the same basic premis. A group of young specially skilled heroes in search of adventure and to defeat the evil that threatens the greater good around them. Great battles and comedy hijinks accompany them on there journeys. Whilst the theme changes slightly with each anime the engaging story, great characters, exciting fights and comedy are ever present.

NicoNicoDesu says...

They are both shounen anime with a large number of characters. The title character seems like a strong guy who wants to protect people, but he is really so much more than that. Plus, both anime have one useless main character-either Shippo or Sakura. I prefer InuYasha because its characters are much less annoying and it has better villians.

shasha1 says...

inuyasha and naruto The same childhood Suffering They were outcasts 

long anime ,fight,comedy,romance,enthusiasm،

Melmokitty says...

I loved this series not just for all the action, but also the amazing back story and romance that followed.

Izmo says...

Both "Naruto" and "Fullmetal Alchemist" are series that easily are classified as mere fighting animes. In both cases I would disagree with the "mere"-part. Both of these animes have plenty of fights, but the also have the ability to go deeper in a way that will make them appreciated not only by adolescents, but by adults as well, and as such they both represent the cream of the crop of fighting anime.

yuujin says...

In "FMA" we have power of alchemy and in "Naruto" we have power of ninja scrolls, but in the end it IS magic and that make those anime worlds so different from ours and so interesting. I think the most common thing between these two series is that one person from the bad team is very close to the main character.

scenthr says...

Both Naruto and FMA have similar main characters and are about adventures. When I watched FMA it felt very much like Naruto; it deals with similar problems of growing up and playing with the cards life gives you. The main characters both have about the same amount of joy, sorrow, sacrifice and most importantly the same amount of willpower to deal with impossible situations. While Naruto has grown into a huge series, FMA is more to the point; and that will probably put FMA a point or two higher than Naruto.

icejamez says...

FMA and Naruto are two shounen anime that have interesting characters, great action, a well-made story (which involves a made up world with its own laws and people), and are very popular.

They are both great watches and I'm sure that if you liked one, the other one is worth a shot.

scientistmad says...

Just like Naruto Uzumaki, Ed and Al in Fullmetal Alchemist leave on a journey of discovery trying to reach a final goal, and willing to do anything for it. As their mother who played a key role in their life is now dead (similar to Naruto's), they don't have the past holding them back, and Ed decides to do whatever it takes to get Al's real body back. If you liked Naruto,you'll love this as well (it's also shorter).

Alyska says...

FMA and Naruto are similar because they are full of action, and they both have thier serious, and funny sides. Both Ed, and Naruto are strong characters that you either really like, or dislike. The two series are also similar because they both have plot twists that you don't see at the beginning of the series.

thecelestialkid says...

Naruto and FMA are very similar. Good story, characters, art, and twists. Though one may like one more than the other it's definitely worth cheking the other out if you like another.

charliechan says...

Both animes are about people reaching their dreams, Each are action packed pack and even small amounts of comedy so the non fighting or plot building parts of sow aren't too dull.

ConnorD says...

Both Fullmetal Alchemist and Naruto are based on Men who fight as hard as they can to obtain the goal of relieving themselves from a permenent mark set on them as children. Also both series are action packed with TONS of great fight scenes!

tsurugiayame says...

because both series are full of strong emotions. Heroes who never give up trying to fullfill their dreams no matter what but always valuing family and friendship above all. Great combats, funny moments and really sophisticated minor characters makes you enjoy this anime even more... 

TheVampireLady says...

My two absolutly favourite animes^^

They remind a lot about each other and if you'd like the one you'll like the other one :D

In both series we have a person everybody looks down on in the start (Ed & Naruto) but are fighting for there dreams (getting his body back & becoming hokage) and they both end up respekted by everyone around them. And we have the annoying type whom every girl falls in love with (Roy Mustang & Sasuke) whom the protoganist hates but on the other side he is a great friend (okay in the end Sasuke isen't the best friend, but.. xD) and we have the short tempered, hard kicking girl (Winry & Sakura) and not to forget the one who always tries to calm down the protoganist (Al & Kakashi) but this is also the only way they resemble each other O.o (I coulden't imagine Al sitting and reading porn XD ...or i wouldent even try--- ARGH to late-.-) XD

Shinsengumi367 says...

Hardcore fights, they both have it. Blondes, they both have it too.

Of course there's still the thing about teenager~kids trying to achieve big dreams.

Deathlord9100 says...

First of all, Naruto and Soul Eater are both very similar types of Shounen anime. They both focus on action while splicing in drama and comedy just enough so that it keeps the series interesting. Soul Eater and Naruto also both stories about students attending a school where they hone their abilites as fighters and strive to become the strongest. Also the characters in Soul Eater share many of the same traits as the characters in Naruto, i.e.: Soul is similar to Souske in that he is the cool, calm, and collected type while still being extremely powerful. Black Star is similar to Naruto in that both have an a huge ego, are clumsy and strong when they need to be. All in all, if you liked Naruto because of the action/comedy/drama mix then you will like Soul Eater (the reverse applies as well).

soulkeeper says...

Both are very similar cause the adventures are interesting and suprising. The characters are always looking for a way to be more strong and besides, there's a character in Soul Eater that REALLY resembles Naruto!

sahilms says...

These 2 shows are very similar in style but not in story, Soul eater is about a weird world with witches and mythological beings etc... Naruto is about normal people who have trained to get abilites, however different story the style is the same main characters become stronger to beat bad guy, there will be a super powerful mentors (kakashi as to professor stein) goofy kids with good abilities (saske to soul) (naruto to blacks star) etc... If you liked  bleach you will like soul eater. 

akatsukiJuS says...

both animes are based is young teen with "special abilities". the type of comedie is the same, in both stories the characters are "students" that keep learning diferente kinna powers (jutsu's in naruto's case)

thegreatmajeni says...

If you like Soul Eater you would like Naruto (visa versa). There Action scenes look the same, they also have the same sort of Animation. They also have the same Adventure kind of Style.

demonman905 says...

Both of these shows are great Shounen Anime, when things aren't serious, there is plenty of comedy, but when things get tough, the action is intense, always making you want more.

Chidori365 says...

Mostly because they are both full of action and comedy. Another reason is because since they both have a fantasy like anime going on. Also they both contain people doing mystical powers and all.

Musicgirl1796 says...

If you liked the characters in Naruto or Soul Eater, you will like the characters in the other anime. A lot of the characters have the same spunk and personality. There is also the added humor and practical joke-loving aspect in both animes.

mrCorvus says...

Soul eater is very similar to Naruto as it about groups of young people who fight. It might not be long and it might have shallower plot but it's better made with nicer sense of humour and not that long. Extreme similarities can be seen on some charachters such as Naruto and Star.

ObscureReaper says...

Both feature students in academies set up by a government in which they are trained to fight. In naruto it is Ninjas who learn ninja arts and develope the skills passed down through their families. In Soul Eater, there are weapon wielders and weapons who are training their souls so that they can defeat evil and get enough souls to turn the weapon into a super weapon. They both throw in a lot of humor in the storylines but I feel Naruto has done more for character developement, could be just because it is a longer anime. I feel that Soul Eater was a bit darker but they both are very similar so someone who loves one would really love the other.

m5shadow says...

Great anime, Jujustu Kaisen has the jutsu part like Naruto but otherwise not that alike. I really liked Naruto and then someone recommened Jutsju Kaisen so I watched it and it was definetly worth it. The story is not like Naruto tho.

Sweatylightning says...

they are very similair and jjk uses naruto as a reference multiple times. they have very similair characters as in naruto as itadori and its like team 7 if they stayed together through shippuden in a sort of way

Littlesilverwolf says...

Both anime with main character hated by others due to monster in their body. They both are stupids that hot-blooded in rescueing people although being seen as monster.

atkuymas says...

when I started wtaching jjk, it immediately reminded  me of an upgraded version of team 7. A less emo sasuke, useful sakura and smarter naruto. and of course kakashi. not to mention the fact that both naruto and yuji have curses/monsters within them.

WolfX12 says...

Hear me out on this similatrities

1.Main Charecters are both really hyperactive in a way

2.Both are possesed by some sort of demon/fox

3.Both have a Kakash/Gojo

4.Both have a Sakura/That one girl with brown hair

5.Both have a Saskue/Fushigiro

6.Both have a Naruto/Itadori

7.Both have something that is also in their body and that thing disrespects them and will not help them(sometimes) 

That it,P.S follow me for more reviews.

xChxrliex says...

Its very similar if you like jjk you can see naruto, if you like naruto you can see jjk. In jujutsu kaisen they have all the 3 students with a kakkoi sensei like kakashi

skittles2774 says...

Both are great and have some amazing characters. I lost count of how many of the characters in each of these I have fallen for. 

mbrenner57 says...

Gojo and Kakashi might as well be the same character! Silver haired, overpowered teacher who at first hates the students, or is at best aloof and carefree around them. The protagonists are also similar, in the sense that they have their own goals unrelated to the schools they attend, and getting stronger just happens to be the path to that goal

Yuki2010 says...

Cause both are action and have jujutsu. It simple terms they have similar genres and just really good shows.

animegal33 says...

Both Naruto and Nabari no Ou have ninjas as a main theme. They both have a similar feel to them. They both have very interesting magical techniques that make them very interesting.

andrutz4 says...

Both series are about ninjas, fights, friendship and a boy with a special power. Both series have mysterious hidden villages of ninjas and special tehnique. So if you like the anime about ninjas, you will like Nabari no Ou too.

funtoo2 says...

The main character in both series both have incredible powers deep inside themselves. Naruto has the power of the Nine Tailed Fox, while Miharu has the power of the Shinrabanshō. The two boys always travel in a clan of ninjas and are constantly in danger due to the incredible power that lies within them. Others are always after them to kill them in order to obtain their hidden power. 

LovelyWickedDescet says...

Each of the series main theme is about ninjas. NnO is more bassed on our area conjoined to another world that is unknown, as for Naruto's based on fiction. Both Miharu and Naruto have something sealed deep inside of them that they had no knowledge of up entil a certain point in time, the power is hard to control; due to the character behind it, and powerful enough to put the world in danger.

Because of this power both character's have to defend themselves against enemies that wish to kill and escract the power from them. Training with other shinobi's and working for their clans.

If you liked the comedy, action/adventure of one then you may also like the other.

yelizaveritas says...

just two very similar action series about ninjas. comedies, sometimes sad. a bit similar characters. both main heroes have hidden powers inside of them, very dangerous powers.

if you liked Naruto and want to watch anything similar but not that long, you definitely should give a try to Nabari no Ou. and if you enjoyed Nabari no Ou you may enjoy Naruto as well.

mivz says...

I agree with the other users interms of the shinobi kids theme (like Naruto), also the 'magical' properties they seem to hold. Though this anime has more of a darker undertone also, similar to D.Gray-Man, including Miharu Rokujou the main character with Alan Walker in a comedic sense & art style. Either way this is a great anime, i've been looking for something new for some time now and this has been very enjoyable for me n_n Check out Nabari No Ou if you've been looking for something similar.

thegreatmajeni says...

Both's main story is about Ninja, and both Main characters have special powers inside them. Both have pretty decent characters as well.

JapanFreak says...

Both anime have same ninja filling (kunai ninja stars jutsu fighting) and both main characters have an inner monster/hidden power

hotspot says...

Naruto and Nabari No Ou, are both about ninja's. They share many similarities with terminology, hand gestures, and abilities. Nabari No Ou has a Naruto "feel", to it. Although I think as the episodes go on, Nabari No Ou just becomes it's own anime alltogether, and the similarities are just in the beginning.

ItachiSarutobi says...

Yusuke Urameshi is a just your ordinary teenage delinquent (if there is such a thing) living a selfish lifestyle; because of this much of society treated him as an outcast throughout his life. A lot like Yusuke, Uzamaki Naruto was treated as an outcast by his village not only because he behaved selfishly, but because of a dormant monster sealed within him. Both protagonists are so much alike that it makes me laugh when I think about it. They each have serious ego problems and think that they're the best in everything; their style of fighting is always reckless (they aren't the stealthy types); and last but not least, neither of them are any good at creating strategies - they'd much rather use brute strength. So if you like action anime with a laugh every now and then both of these series are recommended.

krule says...

YYH and Naruto both have great action and stories, and kickass characters. If you liked one, try out the other.

Foop says...

Naruto and Yu Yu Hakusho have very similar fights and they are both very action-y. They are a very good match together. If you watched one, you should watch the other.

batman900 says...

Both have the same concept of training to increase strength and protect friends. Both have a small group of friends that train to defeat stronger and strongeroppenents.

roukew says...

Both animes start of with a fast paced introduction of the main anti-hero but within a few episodes fall back upon the usual shounen standards. Although with a lot of action, the story barely progresses after a while.

teramaster says...

Both Naruto and Basilisk are about ninjas who give their all for the sake of their clan (in Basilisk) or village (in Naruto). Basilisk has a very interesting story and a lot of stunning battle scenes. Naruto has the same, only Basilisk is made graphically more detailed; and also, in Basilisk, the ninjas are not kids, but adults; which means, there is not as much humor as in Naruto, but still, humor is present.

Haste says...

First, the obvious: both shows are about ninjas protecting their homes (villages in Naruto, clans in Basilisk); in both shows the ninjas have largely exagerated or impossible techniques that make them vastly stronger than the ordinary person.

Although Naruto is much longer, it is like the dumber, younger brother of Basilisk. They are immensely similar in theme, but Basilisk is more mature: there is less commedy, more violence, stronger emotions, and better animation in Basilisk, which on the other hand means Naruto is a lighter, longer, "happier" experience, although arguably less serious.

MalteseFalcon says...

If Naruto is a kid ninja series, and Naruto Shippuden a teen, then Basilisk is definately the mature adult. Taking the same premise - ninjas from different clans fighting with abilities beyond the scope of normal people for dominance - and cranking up the mature themes, Basilisk is definately not a series for kids. However, if you are looking for something more adult, with a dark and gritty feel, you should try watching Basilisk.

Anathemus says...

Basilisk and Naruto have loads of ninja action, introducing a good variety of characters with a good range of different ninja techniques, the core of both shows are the fighting scenes, and they don't dissapoint in my opinion.

Basilisk is shorter and will appeal more to an adult audience than Naruto.

RedCrossRobbery says...

If you thought Naruto was exciting, you'd much rather be watching Basilisk. Ninja factions at war, super-human ninja technique, and interesting character design. Basilisk is Naruto for adults.

hitokiri says...

These two shows have plenty in common. They both have great action. They both take from Japanese history (Ruroken much more tho, since in Naruto it's basically just ninjas taken from history). Neither take themselves too seriously. Both have great characters with lots of development. Both are 90+ episodes. And finally,both are just great series.

XMrNiceguyX says...

Wihle Naruto is more humoreous, Rurouni Kenshin is alot more serious and has shorter fights. Naruto plays in a fantasy world, while Rurouni Kenshin plays in the past (ofcourse both series are fictional.) IN addition to this: Naruto is more ninja, while Rurouni Kenshin is more samurai.

freakzilla says...

Naruto and Kenshin have extremely nice fights, though in Kenshin it's the sword, not chakra that does the damage. Both are series with action and comedy, so if you're looking for a long running show, this is the one you want.

UnperfectKitten says...

Naruto and Kenshin involve ninja and samurai and take place in the past. They are filled with comedy that is based upon not only the main characters, but also those they come across. The main characters want things they just can't reach due to events in their pasts, but they never let their dreams  be crushed and strive to make a difference.

tolone says...

Shaman King and Naruto are very similar. Both start out as a a light hearted comedy with a little fighting, but later turn into a serious fighting anime.

crimsoneyes says...

Both characters have a goal and they will do anything to achieve it. Yoh and Naruto have this passion to protect their friends, which leads them to tapping into a strong power they both have inside.

DarkScribe says...

Both anime are focused around a teenage boy who despite being faced with important and often dangerous tasks in pursuit of their goals, maintain a relaxed, easy-going attitude.

Both series look strongly at not only the strengths and weaknesses of the main character but also that of the group of companions they keep and their bonds with them.

Both are lighthearted enough to watch when you dont want to watch something intense, but can both provide intensity and edge-of-your-seat situations.

KiraRin says...

Two very typical shounen shows, neither of which were very appealing to myself, will definitely be loved by younger action fans. Simple jokes, impossibly crazy characters and a journey of self discovery see the main protagonists fight their way to the top. If you enjoy the battles and friendships in one show, you're bound to love the other.

cakeorrdeath says...

These shounen animes have the same basic premis. A group of young specially skilled heroes in search of adventure and to defeat the evil that threatens the greater good around them. Great battles and comedy hijinks accompany them on there journeys. Whilst the theme changes slightly with each anime the engaging story, great characters, exciting fights and comedy are ever present.

ObscureReaper says...

Both shows had a large cast of characters that develope really well. Naruto uses ninja arts and Fullmetal uses Alchemy. The fight scenes are very similar, the hero is losing the battle but finds strength through their friends to come back and win. The only complaint i could possibly have that sets them apart is that Naruto does not have quite the impact that fullmetal has. I watched the dub version, even though i was told not to, so it could just be the dubbed but it seemed to hold back, whereas fullmetal would hit you really hard with things like a man who combined his daughter and dog into a monster. If you liked Naruto you will love Fullmetal and if you liked Fullmetal, you will either love Naruto or dislike it depending on what you liked in Fullmetal.

Hutai says...

Hot headed protagonist, both are blond and an orphan. Harsh life, lots of challenges, fights, violence, adventures etc.  Interesting story, some conspiracies in the government and the MC helping people and those he love most. ( Naturo helping sasuke and sakura, Edward helping his brother. )Both anime have some really funny scenes too

outershpongolia says...

Both stories follow stuborn fellas who are fighting for everyone, making friends wherever they go and making even the most evil characters into good ones at the end.

Two amazing stories fulfilled with love, friendship, trust and human inner beauty.

At the same time, two strong stories that talk about human sins, desire for apsolutism and sadness for the lost ones.

It's certainly worth checking them out.
