Naruto Ultimate Ninja Heroes Move List
Bernd Manison
THE HERO OF THE SHINOBI WORLD
Naruto was originally introduced as a hyperactive, trouble-making ninja in the Hidden Leaf Village. He trained to master the art of ninjutsu: the ability to perform many techniques. He specializes in cloning himself and using a move called Rasengan that will send any opponent flying. Although he known as a hero throughout five great shinobi nations, Naruto is also host to a powerful and feared creature known as the Nine-Tailed Fox.
All-Stars: Naruto finally gains control over the Nine-Tails and ventures forth after discovering that his world has been plunged into war. He runs into the Masked Man, who tells him of a gathering of certain people and that Sasuke had gone after them. Naruto, believing this man, heads off in search of his former ally.
The Crossover Game: Naruto, Sasuke, Kakashi, and Sakura have been battling Madara Uchiha after the Shinobi Alliance was cast under the Infinite Tsukuyomi, trapping them in illusionary world within their own minds. However, just as Naruto and Sasuke prepare to defeat Madara, another entity emerges from within him: Kaguya Otsusuki. As Naruto prepares to fight Kaguya, she uses her powers to send him and the others into different dimensions. With only the vision of Hagoromo Otsusuki and the Yin half of Kurama to guide him, Naruto is forced to ask people of other worlds if they can transport him back to his own.
Reason: Naruto is searching for Sasuke Uchiha and meets Goku. When he asks if Goku had seen Sasuke, Goku randomly challenges Naruto to a fight. With no other choice, Naruto accepts the challenge.
Connection: Both are popular heroes in Shonen Jump manga. Both also have several video games that were developed by Namco Bandai. Goku's clothes appear as DLC for Naruto in Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 3. One of the tailed beasts in Naruto is also named Son Goku.
All-Stars: After absorbing Polygon Man's power, Naruto returns to his world where he finally reunites with Sasuke Uchiha. The two challenge each other to a fight, and Naruto unleashes his new powers.
The Crossover Game: TBA
Naruto's fighting style would reflect his fighting style from the Storm series, reflecting on Rasengan variations and his Shadow Clones. Naruto is permanently playable in his Tailed Beast Mode.
So, decided to write up a list of who all I think has a chance of getting in the game, and who I'd personally like to see be announced (One's got a really low chance, but hey, my Kushina prediction came true, so I'm hoping that will keep up)
First off, returning characters: Everyone from Revolution will hopefully return. I see no reason to cut anyone aside from the PTS characters, and even then, the fact that they returned for Revolution means they've still got a shot, right?
Rin- This one's incredibly unlikely, but I'd really like to see Team Minato get rounded out with Rin as a playable character. Some might argue that we've never seen her fight, but everyone told me the same thing when I suggested Kushina, and she made it in. I'm hopeful for Rin now.
The other three new Kage- This is actually more likely than pretty much everyone else on this part of the list, but I'd like to play as the other three for once. Getting them in their Kage costumes would be the best way to include them.
Sakura (Adult)- Saved this for last because it's the least likely of these, but again, rounding out Team 7 would be really nice. I know all we saw her do in chapter 700 was clean, but I doubt she quit being a ninja. Let's just hope she doesn't end up as a Kushina clone
Out of everything you listed, I agree with most of it. The only ones I don't are the minor characters, because those are always a shot in the dark. It's not that I don't want them, its just that, like I've explained before, they're really super irrelevant compared to other characters that could be in the game. Though, I wouldn't mind them being in, as long as they're interesting and have move sets that were given some thought, but again, some I find highly unlikely.
As for The Last people: I want "The Last" characters, i.e. Naruto and the gang, to be separate from their Part II/Shippuden incarnations. I know that sounds dumb, and that it goes against my whole agenda on condensing the roster and not having multiple incarnations of the same character, but hear me out: The Last characters are older, wiser, and as far as we know, highly more adept in their ninja skills compared to their younger selves. This would be a chance to give them all brand new move-sets that full emphasizes that. If Sasuke and Rock Lee in "The Last" can break open meteors, they're obviously stronger than they were in Part II/Shippuden, and I'm sure its the same for every other "The Last" character, especially Kakashi considering he has no Sharingan but is still strong enough to maintain his Kage level. For Chapter 700: I don't think having Boruto and the new gen. characters is likely at all. I think they could benefit more from having their own game solely about their story, but just like the minor characters, its a coin flip. It could go either way. That said, I wouldn't mind at all if they actually did get in because we'd get a sneak peak of their abilities.
Kurenai, Shizune and Rin. I don't see them coming in favor of guys like Juubito, Juubidara, Kaguya and so on. If they were to be in, I'd want them to have really good movesets i.e. Kurenai needs more than just her Itachi Rip-off Jutsu. She's a Genjutsu type so there's plenty of room to play around with that jutsu wise. Shizune should not only use poisons and medical ninjutsu, but she should be a comedy character and use Tonton in her moves too, because that worked well in UN3. Rin... well... she only has healing and basic ninja abilities so honestly, she should be a Jincuriki character with a Three Tails form and everything. She was the Jinchuriki for Sanbi at one point, so why not work in a little what if scenario with her character? I'd guarantee you it'd be ten times better than just leaving her with that big trap ball that Part I Sakura has. lol
Also, If I could be fair and name off some minor characters that I'd want in Storm 4, I'd go with: Might Dai, because he's Guy's dad, and he was relevant for Gai's battle with Madara, and for a man of his character and ability, he'd probably be really fun and unique to play with; Sakumo Hatake, because he's Kakashi's dad and he's been hyped up since the Kakashi Gaiden and we've literally never seen him fight in the manga, anime or anything; Kitsuchi (Kurotsuchi's dad and Onoki's son), because he was a really stern but cool guy and as one of the commanders in the war, it'd make sense to show him some love, maybe give him some unique high-level Earth jutsus too; Omoi, (Killer B's apprentice and member of Team Samui), because although Samui herself would fit because she's the leader and even Karui would too if there was more emphasis on Chapter 700, Omoi is the only one who's actually had time to shine in both the manga and anime. He's really unique in that he's a soft spoken but paranoid dude that still has enough skill to pull off some awesome kenjutsu and Lighting Style attacks, which would make for a cool moveset; and last, but certainly not least, Hagoromo Otsutsuki, the Sage of Six Paths, because he has never been explicitly shown fighting at all but... this is basically the God of the Naruto world, or Jesus Christ actually if you want to stick Kaguya into this analogy. Even so, he would obviously pack a real punch if he were playable.
