Naruto’s Underrated Quote That Changed Everything for His Generation!

by

In essence, the series Naruto is marked by spectacular ninja techniques, intense hand-to-hand fights, and frequent use of Talk no Jutsu. Given these elements, it’s no surprise that the series abounds with quotable moments. Delving into the heart of the series, a variety of characters were presented, some embodying the themes and others serving as counterpoints to those themes. Naruto often personified the concepts of perseverance and heroism, as he was usually the catalyst for change in the world. However, during his battle with Neji during the Chunin exams, one of his cherished peers from his village directly questioned Naruto’s beliefs. Not only was Neji considered more skilled than Naruto, but he consistently expressed his perceived superiority over our young protagonist throughout their encounter.

In this match thus far, Neji appears superior, but Naruto consistently challenges that notion by demonstrating the value of his ninja way. During their battle, Naruto refutes Neji’s claims and proves him wrong through both words and actions. Naruto fights for the principles of effort and improvement, while Neji often disregards these ideas and even looks down on Naruto and his cousin as weaklings. This fight was significant during the original Naruto series, and the themes of belief and determination presented by both characters have resonated throughout Naruto: Shippuden, Boruto: Naruto Next Generations, and even Boruto: Two Blue Vortex. In recent chapters of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex, Naruto’s message that individuals control their destinies and should take charge of their own lives has never been more relevant.

The Generation That Shattered Destiny

The concept of destiny is consistently woven into both Naruto and Naruto: Shippuden, often portrayed in the resolutions of villains or antagonists who view the world as cyclical and filled with suffering. Many of our main adversaries tell Naruto that the fate of shinobi is to endure hardship within their chosen service. However, Naruto’s most compelling demonstration of defying destiny and inspiring others to break free from the constraints imposed by “destiny” can be seen in his struggle against Neji. Neji embodied everything Naruto wasn’t and served as the first significant obstacle on Naruto’s path to confronting his rival, Sasuke. Neji was naturally talented and diligent, but he placed absolute faith in his strength. Neji was harsh towards those weaker than him and believed that despite his strength, he would still experience mistreatment similar to his father due to the mark on his forehead signifying him as a “branch” member of his clan.

In the midst of their intense battle, even though Neji initially seemed superior, Naruto remained convinced that he would emerge victorious. Showing his resourcefulness and determination, Naruto employed a shadow clone as a decoy, allowing him to deliver a powerful uppercut on Neji. Despite Neji’s boasts and the apparent difference in their abilities, Naruto ultimately stood over Neji’s defeated form and declared, “Don’t use destiny as an excuse and stop telling me you can’t change who you are! You can do it too.” This memorable line from Episode 62 of Naruto served to remind Neji that he had lost to someone he considered beneath himself. Naruto firmly believed that using destiny as a scapegoat was unacceptable, and that each individual has the power to shape their own fate. The shinobi of Naruto’s generation were instrumental in redefining the destiny of their world, working tirelessly to bring about security and peace within the ninja realm.

Boruto: A Child of Destiny

In the tranquility that Naruto and his companions established, discord remained, giving birth to a fresh wave of adversaries. Boruto now finds himself in an era teeming with peril and unforeseen risks, a time when he, together with his comrades, must grapple with these hazards without the guidance of Naruto and Sasuke. Yet, this new generation of foes also offers us a glimpse into how Boruto and his friends are shaping their destinies on their own terms. From the outset of Boruto, we learn that the village is destined for destruction, with Kawaki and Boruto engaging in an ideological battle. However, as the story unfolds, it becomes clear that these events may culminate due to Kawaki’s actions. Additionally, Sarada has been shown to challenge divine, transformative forces through her boundless affection, paving a unique path for herself alongside Boruto.

In various instances, we see members of the latest generation shaping their own destinies. One such example is Boruto, as depicted in “Boruto: Two Blue Vortex,” where our main character struggles against a world that opposes him due to forces beyond his control. Despite this, he persists in striving for the world he desires.

Additionally, viewers have discovered that Boruto gained knowledge through Koji Kashin’s foresight, which has boosted his power but also bound him to the predictive nature of future sight. However, starting from Chapters 21 and 22, Boruto mirrors his father’s sentiments by pursuing a battle even though he knows there is no future where he defeats the enemy. Instead, he enters the fight armed with his most powerful attacks, hoping to alter his current situation.
