Episode 03; A Rival!? Sasuke And Sakura: As Naruto walks to his explanatory meeting, Konohamaru greets him, ready to fight. He trips, and Naruto greets him, but explains that he can’t fight. Haruno Sakura heads off to her explanatory meeting. Her rival, Yamanaka Ino, greets her along the way, and they end up racing to school. At school, Sakura races over to the most popular boy in the class, Uchiha Sasuke, and asks to sit next to him. Soon several of the girls are fighting to sit next to him, which makes Naruto jealous. He stares Sasuke down until one of the kids pushes Naruto into Sasuke and they end up kissing. This severely pisses off Sakura, who stands ready to attack Naruto. When class begins, Iruka Sensei announces the each ninja will join a group of three to further their training. Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke end up together. Naruto is thrilled to be with Sakura-chan, while she’s thrilled to be with Sasuke. Hyuuga Hinata, who has a crush on Naruto, is disappointed not to be in his group. At lunch, Sakura disses Naruto to find Sasuke. Naruto gets pissed and looks for revenge. He sees Sasuke sitting alone eating and attacks him. Sasuke emerges the winner and ties Naruto up. He then heads over to where Sakura is eating by herself. He joins her and asks what she thinks about Naruto. She starts ranting about how Naruto doesn’t know her and that he’s just annoying. She only wants him to accept her. There is a flash back to the real Sasuke, who has been tied up by Naruto. Naruto then transformed into him to court Sakura. Just as she’s about to kiss him, he gets a sudden stomachache and the desperate urge to use the bathroom and rushes off. In the bathroom, Naruto has a revelation. He only can get close to Sakura if he transforms into Sasuke. His plan is to make Sakura think that Sasuke finds her annoying. However, while he is in the bathroom, the real Sasuke walks passed Sakura and asks about Naruto. She rants about how annoying Naruto is, but he tells her that she’s annoying. It really hurts her. Naruto, meanwhile, heads out of the bathroom where he is greeted by Sasuke. Naruto decides that he will gain the respect of others if he defeats Sasuke, but again he has another desperate urge to use the bathroom and retreats. Sakura has the chance to think things over and decides to be nicer to Naruto. When he emerges from the bathroom, she greets him and asks him to walk back to class. He accuses her of being Sasuke and wanting revenge, but again, his stomach gets the better of him. Episode 04; The Trial! Survival Training: Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura wait for their Jounin (high class ninja) to arrive and take them off to train. Naruto is impatient and sets up a booby trap. When the Jounin enters, the eraser Naruto strategically placed above the door hits him on the head. He tells them that his first impression of them is that he hates them. The group starts off by introducing themselves. Sensei goes first. He is Hatake Kakashi and has no intention of telling them of his likes and dislikes, his dreams, or his hobbies. Naruto is next. He likes cup ramen and hates the 3 minutes he has to wait after he puts the ramen in hot water. His hobby is to eat and compare cup ramens, and his dream is to become greater than the Hokages and make all the villagers recognize his existence. Next is Sakura. She doesn’t reveal any of her dreams or likes, although Sensei is quick to realize that she likes Sasuke. He asks what she hates, and she replies ‘Naruto.’ Sasuke is last. He says that there are many things that he hates, and few things that he likes. His ambition is to revive his clan and to kill a certain man. Their first mission is survival training. They tell him that they already have done training at the academy. He laughs at them and tells them that out of the 27 graduates, only nine will become Genins. The other 18 will be sent back to the academy. In other words, the test has a 66% drop out rate. They are to bring their ninja equipment and meet at 5 AM. Oh, and not to eat breakfast or they will throw up if they do. Next morning, they show up bright and early, but sensei doesn’t get there until 11:10 AM. He immediately sets the alarm clock to 12 PM and tells them their first task is to take one of the two bells he holds from him. Whoever can’t won’t eat lunch. He then insults Naruto further to make the three understand that to take the bells, they will have to kill him. Naruto immediately takes out his dagger and attacks. Sensei immediately is able to turn the attack against Naruto and the three are finally ready to begin the training. Soon, everyone is hiding, except Naruto. He attacks ‘fair and square.’ Sensei teaches him Ninja fighting lesson 1: taijutsu (fighting without weapons). He then takes out a book and begins reading. Every attack Naruto fires on him is avoided. Soon, Sensei is behind Naruto and his hand is in the seal of the tiger position. He performs a high Ninja technique in the element of fire which basically pokes Naruto in the ass and sends him flying. Iruka asks Hokage-sama about the Jounin who is training Naruto’s group. He has heard rumors about how difficult the man is. Hokage-sama gives him a book on Kakashi, which states that he has never passed a person. Everyone has failed. Naruto performs mass shadow replica and 7 Narutos attack Sensei. One caught sensei from behind, and sensei was able to quickly change places with one of the replications of Naruto. Suddenly, Naruto sees a bell lying on the ground. He runs over to it, but it caught in a trap and hung by his feet on the nearest tree. As Sensei lectures Naruto on his movement, Sasuke throws his ninja stars and hits him. Sensei goes flying backwards. |
