Top 12 Naruto Characters Ranked From Worst To Best
Naruto is one of the best anime’s out there. It’s probably the most famous of the bunch, and many Gen-Z kids grew up watching it. For lots of us, it was our first introduction to anime, and it’s all been downhill since then. Naruto is especially well known for its many realistic and relatable characters that gained the series so much acclaim. Here are the 12 best, ranked.
12. Obito Uchiha

Obito wasn’t necessarily a bad character, but he wasn’t one of the best. Unlike the complicated backstories of the others, he simply appears, and little is known about him.
11. Tsunade Senju

Tsunade is a very lifelike character, unlike the others on this list, showing her vulnerabilities like her fear of blood as well as her strengths. This has earned her some appeal, but she still pales in comparison to some of the more complex characters on this list.
10. Shikamaru Nara

Shikamaru gets a lot of credit for being friends with Naruto when no one else would. But the fans’ love for him didn’t necessarily develop more over the seasons, even as his role in Naruto’s story grew.
9. Sakura Haruno

Sakura isn’t a bad character and has lots of good traits. She just didn’t get much of a chance to grow or have relevance in the story as she should have.
8. Neji Hyuga

Neji didn’t start off the series on a great note as an annoying bully of Naruto’s, but he grew to be kinder and well-liked, especially after that tragic ending to his story that most fans still haven’t recovered from.
7. Rock Lee

Rock Lee is either endearing or annoying, depending on your mood. Some love him, some wish they could be that energetic and positive, and some just find him absolutely grating.
6. Kakashi Hatake

Kakashi is the teacher of Team 7 and a strong leader. He has lots of fans who are devoted to his distinct fashion statement of wearing a mask before it was cool.
5. Pain

Pain is another divisive character. Some fans love him, and others can’t stand him, but he’s appeared in tons of memes with his many piercings and distinct personality.
4. Hinata Hyuga

Hinata serves a strong role as a supporting character and love interest for Naruto, but the main reason she’s so high on the list is she’s worshipped by millions of simps online. But we’re not here to judge. We know why you’re here, after all.
3. Sasuke Uchiha

Sasuke gained favor among fans for his sad backstory and strong presence as a main character of Naruto. His role in Boruto also won him some extra appreciation.
2. Naruto Uzumaki

Naruto is the titular character, but also one of the most compelling characters in the series. There’s a lot we learn about him as time goes on, and if you watched this show as a child, you grew up right alongside him.
1. Itachi Uzumaki

Itachi is perhaps the most complicated character in the series. His motivations and past are not truly known at first, and as the viewer begins to realize he’s not quite the villain they believed him to be, he earned a special place in the hearts of millions.
