A number of plot twists in Naruto really changes the course of the story, anything goes plot twists most surprising in Naruto?
1. Itachi Uchiha is actually good
We start from plot twists the most classic. Itachi was shown from the start as an evil Uchiha character who killed his own clan and wanted Sasuke’s eyes Sharinganit becomes stronger.
Of course plot twistsIt turns out that Itachi is good and he develops the heavy burden of eliminating his clan and parents to prevent war. He also really loves Sasuke.
2. Sasuke really left the village
Sasuke really wanted to become stronger to be able to take revenge on Itachi, here Orochimaru offered to give Sasuke strength.
Plot twists In his time, Sasuke actually left the village and even created one of the most interesting conflicts in Narutonamely the plot of the pursuit of Sasuke.
3. Gaara became Kazekage at a young age
Gaara was initially an enemy, but when he became good and an ally for Naruto, it was not surprising, Naruto succeeded in bringing him to his senses.
To his surprise, Gaara became Kazekage or the leader of the Suna ninja village in his teens to replace his father.
4. Minato and Kushina are Naruto’s parents, plus Kushina is also a Jinchuriki
For Minato, the audience actually suspected that Hokage who sealed the Nine Tails into Naruto’s body was his father.
But for Kushina it was quite surprising, plus Kushina was Jinchuriki before Naruto, and also his friend Mikoto, Sasuke’s mother.
5. Tobi is Obito and not Madara
Actually, many people have guessed this, but it is still a moment plot twists in the story.
Tobi’s figure, which is silly in front but scary behind, is still mysterious. He introduced himself as Madara Uchiha, it turned out he was Obito, Kakashi’s friend.
6. There are six Pains and their real identity is Nagato
Pain has long been established as the leader of Akatsuki, but I still remember the surprising moment when I read the manga in 2007 or 2009 when it turned out there were six Pains!
Not only were the six Pains surprising, but Pain’s real identity was Nagato, one of Jiraiya’s students.
7. Orochimaru who came back to life from Anko’s cursed seal
Orochimaru’s real body was killed by Sasuke, then Orochimaru in Sasuke’s cursed seal came out and was sealed by Itachi. Orochimaru is technically dead, unless resurrected.
This is the plot twist, Sasuke makes Orochimaru come back to life, out of Anko’s cursed seal, so Orochimaru is still alive today.
8. Naruto and Sasuke are reincarnations
We know that Naruto and Sasuke’s rivalry is unique, but we didn’t realize that this “rivalry” started hundreds or thousands of years ago in the story.
Naruto is the reincarnation of Asura and Sasuke is the reincarnation of Indra, even Hashirama and Madara are their reincarnations before Naruto and Sasuke.
9. Black Zetsu who has been controlling Indra and Madara
Plot twists This is quite surprising and feels sudden, where it turns out that Black Zetsu has been controlling various conflicts.
He is Kaguya’s will to be free, he controls Indra and his reincarnation, namely Madara, to do various things, which ultimately frees Kaguya.
10. Kaguya actually appears and turns out to be the final enemy
This is plot twists which for many people is annoying, because Madara has been built as the final enemy, but suddenly Kaguya actually appears.
Black Zetsu was successful, Kaguya came back to life from within Madara and became the final enemy for Naruto and Sasuke.
That’s ten plot twists surprising in Naruto. Any other? Write in the comments column, OK!
