Season 1
Summarize (in your own words) what we learn about the story of the Leaf Village before we actually meet Naruto
- Nine Tailed Fox terrorized the Leaf Village
- The Fourth Hokage died saving the village
- The Nine Tailed Fox was sealed away within Naruto's infant body
During the Chunin Exam's second phase, this person disguised themself as this, in order to seamlessly blend in with the other candidates at "The Forest of Death," evening managing to fool his favorite former student, now exam proctor, Anko
Who is Orochimaru?
Name 3 things you've learned about Gaara:
Any of these:
- He's from the Hidden Sand Village
- His mother died giving birth to him
- A sand demon was sealed into his infant body
- His father tried to have him assassinated because he was deemed "too dangerous"
- His father wanted to turn him into a weapon for the Hidden Sand Village
- He developed a bloodlust and insidious rage due to extreme childhood trauma
- He is the brother of Kankuro and Temari
Jiraiya gives these reasons to the two Leaf Village council elders as to why Tsunade is fit to be the next Hokage.
- He isn't a desk and paper kind of guy
- She's a legendary sannin, like him
- She's the granddaughter of the First Hokage
This words in japanese literally translates to "Power of Human Sacrifice." It is used to refer to humans that have tailed beasts sealed within them.
What is a "Jinchuuriki?"
Name 2 things we learn about each of the three main characters in Season 1 (Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura):
Naruto (orphan, has the Nine Tailed Fox inside him, is from Uzumaki clan)
Sasuke (orphan, sole survivor of his clan's massacre, wants to avenge his clan)
Sakura (not an orphan, has a big crush on Sasuke, doesn't like Naruto)
Orochimaru creates his own shinobi hidden village, called this, for the express purpose of collecting ninja for his experiments and his quest to learn all techniques.
What is The Hidden Sound Village/Otogakure
Sasuke's sharingan allows him to copy this person's incredible speed in his fight against Gaara.
Who is "Rock Lee"?
Tsunade was the first to lobby for this new rule regarding shinobi squads at a shinobi town meeting. Dan, her lover at the time, was next to support her idea, after the death of her little brother, Nawaki.
"that certain shinobi be trained in the medical arts and then be incorporated into regular platoons with the goal of increasing mission success and survival rates."
This group of rogue S-class criminal shinobi wear distinctive black robes with red clouds.
Who are "The Akatsuki"?
When Kakashi Hatake passes Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura on their genin survival test, we learn this through a conversation between Hiruzen (The Third Hokage) and Iruka sensei.
Team 7 is the first genin team Kakashi has ever passed (and thus, become a sensei to)
Orochimaru has taken an interest in Sasuke for these three reasons:
What are:
- Sasuke's rage and desire for vengeance
- Sasuke's sharingan
- Sasuke's potentiality at being his new vessel/body
This person is murdered and then impersonated by Orochimaru at the Chunin Exam Finals, seen sitting beside The Third Hokage:
Who is the Kazekage/Leader of the Sand Village?
What is 58%?
The Chunin Exam Finals were held up on account of this, and it caused a huge commotion amongst the spectators:
Sasuke's tardiness (bonus: as result of Kakashi training one-on-one with him up until the very last minute. Double bonus if you mention that the Lords of the lands that were spectating all wanted the rare chance of getting to see the sole survivor of the Uchiha clan fight in the arena)
Name 3 things that happened during the "Land of Waves" arc:
- Team 7 gets a mission to escort Tazuna (a bridge builder) back to his home in the Land of Waves
- Zabusa and Haku (and their backstories)
- Gato and his goons have the Land Waves in an economic chokehold
- Tazuna wants to build a bridge to bring trade to the Land of Waves (because of Gato)
- Ninja were hired by Gato to kill Tazuna (that's why he needed Team 7 as escort)
- Team 7 learns that their mission is actually more dangerous than they were informed about
This thing is causing Sasuke to struggle during the Chunin Exams, worrying Sakura to the point that she wants him to quit.
What is Orochimaru's curse mark?
Orochimaru uses a forbidden reanimation jutsu to revive the souls of these two individuals into two corpses, before using them to fight Hiruzen (The Third Hokage).
Who are "The first Hokage" (Hashirama Senju) and "The Second Hokage" (Tobirama Senju)?
Tsunade uses this secret jutsu via a symbol on her forehead, where she stores chakra exponentially over time. The jutsu activates mitotic regeneration within her body, allowing her to continue fighting in battle despite injuries. The drawback is it cuts back her lifespan, and it can be used only a finite amount of times. (She also uses this to keep herself looking younger, despite her age)
What is "Strength of A Hundred" seal?
The Hidden Sand Village (Sunagakure) betrayed the Hidden Leaf Village (Konohagakure) for the following reasons, thus aiding Orochimaru in his attack on the Hidden Leaf Village.
- Improve their economic position
- Weakening the Leaf shinobi forces, thereby naturally creating more opportunities for the Sand shinobi to get hired for missions
- They believed they were following their Kazekage's orders (he was compelled by Orochimaru, then later assassinated and impersonated by him at the Chunin Exam Finals)
Kakashi recommends Team 7 for the Chunin Exams. In order to take the Chunin Exams, all three members of a squad must apply together. But this member of team 7 ultimately made it possible for their team to qualify.
Who is Sakura Haruno?
Name 2 of Jiraiya's known aliases
What are:
- Jiraiya the Gallant
- one of the Legendary Sannin
- The Great Toad Sage
During his fight with Orochimaru, Hiruzen Sarutobi (The Third Hokage) uses this jutsu as his final act to stop Orochimaru once and for all, before dying from its effects, the same jutsu allegedly used by his predecessor, The Fourth Hokage.
What is "Reaper Death Seal"?
The back of the water tower Naruto struck with his Rasengan made a much bigger impact than his chidori had on the other water tower.
Name 3 things known about Itachi Uchiha.
What are:
