NARUTO vs SASUKE (REACTION) 

NEXT UP.. SHIPPUDEN.

Fun fact: the Uchiha Clan specializes in Fire-based jutsu; the Uchiha crest represents a Japanese uchiwa fan (white) fanning the flames (red) to make them bigger

1:01:09 the Sharingan awakens and get stronger by great emotional pain... Sasuke was suffering so much in this fight, that he got stronger.

God bless Atsushi Wakabayashi who directed this timeless masterpiece (133) and Norio Matsumoto who animated almost every iconic scene of the episode.

One of the greatest fights in Shonen Anime history

Naruto really hit Sasuke with that 6 piece combo. The animators were cooking in this fight 🔥

Naruto is known for his fantastic well written fight! These are not just random punches but well balanced power dynamics involved.

To this day, I still consider this fight one of the best in all of anime 🔥 so glad you decided to start this journey, and it only gets BETTER in Shippuden

One of the best fights in all anime history

“Lord, thank you for anime” amen!

one of the peakest breakup arcs

Remember that Itachi may have seemed like a grown ass man but bro was literally 13 when he slaughtered his whole clan; the same age Naruto and Sasuke are currently

A legendary fight between two goated characters

Naruto 1 Tailed Kyuubi Cloak Chakra vs Sasuke 2nd Stage Curse Mark are.... HANDS DOWN TWO OF THE MOST ICONIC FORMS IN ANIME HISTORY!

Honestly, Sasuke was SERVING this whole fight, his remarks are CRAZY

Simply one of the best stories ever told in an anime.

Most react channels upload like a episode or 2 but nick out here blessing us with 2 hrs worth.it’s so perfect

Still to this day one of the greatest fights in anime history. Just that combo alone gives me a huge dose of nostalgia. The parallels, similarities, opposites, and the feels was incredible!

28:00 biggest plot twist is Sasuke is not natural Fire element user, Sasuke's 1st element is lightning and Itachi's and the Father's 1st is Fire that is why he said it won't be like Itachi's so the Father can't teach Sasuke stuff because Sasuke is different than those 2, The Father doesn't know Lightning jutsus so he is upset that he can't teach Sasuke, That is why the father said it is too early for you to use Fire, then he got shocked because Sasuke just used fire style like fire user, that is jounin level shit at very young age, if Itachi done such fireball he wouldn't have shocked because it is Itachi's 1st element, but Sasuke wasn't even in academy yet he used Fire it is equivalent of Naruto using Earth style or Water style ! Father won't be shocked if Sasuke was Fire user using fireball, but Sasuke used fire like fire user at young age. The father said don't chase after your brother because the father realized Sasuke will be stronger than itachi

Now NicholasLightTv you shall know PAIN

'couldn't be smaller then the kaguya clan' I fkin died. 🤣

This is mindblowing, how the animation in this fight is better, than in some Shippuden fights

One thing that I always appreciate in early Naruto is that the more you rewatch it as an adult the more you find yourself to notice very not kid material and be amazed how mature it is. I had this ark on DVD disk and were rewatching it constantly as a kid but my favourite moment were always fight. Now as an adult my favourite moment is that moment with Shikamaru. Sending bunch of 12-15 years old to such mission is mind boggling. And from such mission everyone ot only came alive but also take down 5 ninjas with average Jonin level potential. No wonder Shikamaru cried out after hearing everyone is survived. That is MIRACLE. As a kid you just think that is what is supposed to be since they are main characters. As an adult you just in a shock. It immediately reminds you that this is the world after war. Previous generation of kids fought in a World War of this universe at the age of 13 and this ones are trained and raised by the standards of training them to new one. This is indeed an ark that molded that boys into men. OG Naruto were way mature for its intended audience and that is beautiful

THE PEAK of Naruto (before Shippuden). It might be a hot take but this is the reason that Naruto>One Piece for me. The fights in Naruto are most of the times insanely emotional and "heavy". Also, everything else that culminated to the fights follows the same principal. One Piece has by far the better world-building but character-wise Naruto will always be the #1 of the big 3 and it always manages to keep me emotionally invested in fights like this one.

Sasuke is top 3 naruto character for me❤ story is well written.

"Throughout the Pans and Batter, i Alone am the Waffled One."

Appreciate you including the shikamaru and his father conversation. Feel like that conversation is underrated

The physical pain this guy feels when Sakura appears on the screen makes me laugh so hard everytime 😭

Omg i just realised sasuke throwing Naruto into water and simulating like a rock thrown into water is foreshadowing to one of the flashbacks of two people in the statues

G.O.A.T the parallels are crazy in this show🎉

1:13:18 "I wanna fight here in a game" NICHOLAS LIGHT NINJA STORM PLAYTHROUGHS LETS GO

The greatest anime fight in history of anime will be the last fight in shippuden imo

This fight is so iconic! I love that they fight on top of the water right beside those 2 big statues, it's epic as hell! The animation also goes so hard for something that came out 20 years ago. To me this is the best fight in all of naruto

Best fight for old animation, combat fight and jutsuu uhhh

The most peak show ever, will forever be my favorite, it taught me so much and it truly made me better

naruto and sasuke is like nicholas light and nicholas dark.

Gaara vs Rock Lee make you keep watching but Naruto vs Sasuke make you fallen in love with this anime 🔥💯

59:39 when that guitar hit his soul🤣🤣🤣

Naruto Shippuden is my favourite character‼‼😤😤

Thousands upon thousands of AMVs made from this fight

1:37:04 "Yeah she is gonna be usefull finally" Yeah she is gonna be usefull, and you will still gonna hate her Lol. It's not about just black and white, cut and dry, Usefull and not usefull.. It's more about that 😂

Naruto and Sauske is basically a battle of: "To love and have lost" vs "To never have loved at all" Naruto never knew his parents and have always been alone while Sauske had people who loved him and that he loved before they where all taken from him

This anime is on different level

damn, I remember being 4-5 grade in school and watching this fight, now I'm 30, damn I feel old :D

PEAK FIGHT IS HEREEE‼️‼️🗣️🔥🔥💯💯

I'm using the translation function, so I'm sorry if there are any mistakes. If you have time, I'd like you to watch "Fairy Tail" as well. It's one of my favorite anime. Of course Naruto is one of them.

Man I love Naruto

1:16:34 for context sasuke said in 50:07 this concept used 2 more times for 2 of them in shippudding iirc

Story, fights, philosophy, EMOTIONS, drama, darkness, tragedy, failures... LOVE. This animanga is far, FAR better than others there. And this video represents it all😊

Waiting for your reaction on shippuden believe me shippuden is also super crazy hole shippuden is goosebumps

god the end of naruto gets me emotional every time I see it. Truly a classic

And some tards say Naruto is shiit 😮‍💨😮‍💨 really comparing one anime with other just degrades mindset. Well leave that aside, This was beautiful, the past, the bgm, the choreography and the emotions rolling down in the fights 😌💯

"Something is so good that you want to cry." - Nicholas Believe it or not, but that was my exact 100% feeling during this fight

I've been waiting for you Hashirama😁

After you finished Shippuden, please play the Naruto ninja storm games, I think the last which came out was ninja storm 4 🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️🥚

Oh Nicholas.. You just made the day one hundred times better. If you loved this show.. Then shippuden is gonna be your absolute favorite thing ever.

1:11:16 AHPAKHPAKHPAKHPAKHPAKHKAA "HE TURNED INTO SONIC?" I FKIN DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!

That combo was probably one of the most memorable and clean animations in the entire series. I don't have to give a time stamp, yall know exactly what I'm talkin about 😇😇

NARUTO WAS WHAT KILLED OFF ALL MY BOREDOM IN COVID MAN, YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT AM TALKING ABOUT

1:36:56 I loved this reaction. I'm really happy that you're finally coming to Shippuden

Naruto is the only anime whose DUB is better than the SUB......you would be missing some epic dialogues if don't watch naruto shippuden in dub....there's still time....switch....just give it a try

There's nothing more exhilarating than witnessing someone experience the greatest thing you've ever watched from your childhood, is there?

Itachi,white zetsu(Venus flytrap),kakuzu(dead),Konan,hidan(removed from the group),pain,Tobi,kisame,dediara(dead),sasori(dead)

1:20 she would probably say "Sasuke-kun"

If he thought this fight was good wait till he sees's Naruto Vs Pain, Itachi Vs Sasuke and Kakashi Vs Obito...

Day 1 of askin to react to avenged sevenfold (anyways cnt wait for shippuden)

The choreography in this fight is unreal 🔥🔥🔥🔥 seeing the sharingan evolve in real time is always nostalgic

“Once you go black - you never go back to Konoha”. (Sasuke Uchiha)

1:36:46 Naruto got me with that face lmao

I will go to my grave saying "Walking Along the Path of Hatred" is one of the best Naruto OSTs they've ever made. And of course it went unreleased, officially. And to answer your question of "can these battles get any better", yes, yes they can. Man I cant wait for Shippuden.

Dawm, back then, when this episode first aired in TV, this was crazy. Back then, we had a anime TV magazin in germany that was called Mega Hero. In this Magazin they showed pictures of Sasuke and his cursed mark design with the one black eye. This was a month befor the Sasuke retrieval arc aired. And this picture of Sasuke alone was enough to hype all of us up. 🔥🔥

I love Naruto, One Piece, and Bleach. But i think Naruto gets shit on way too much. it's super iconic imo

"We have all the context now" Those words will echo forever :p

Why is Shikaku so fucking based holyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

One of the Greatest fight of all time

34:59 he looks like helmeppo from one piece. lol

what a legendary anime

Bruh, I remember watching almost a full season, wondering when the hell something important was gonna happen, especially when missions were getting weirder, only to realize the next like 3 seasons were filler.

People can say whatever they want about Goku vs Jiren and Luffy vs Kaido being the best fights in Anime but real OG's know Naruto vs Sasuke is the best. This hits so different. Even now with Naruto finished the entire Naruto vs Sasuke part 1 and part 2 fights are just the best. Who would of thought across all these years, back in 2005 to when they fought again in 2016. This journey spanned our childhood. Can't beat it.

Now you know why Naruto was my life for more than 10 years when i was growing up. And even until now is still inspiration.

Man I forgot how funny that shot of Naruto rising out of the water is, I laughed so hard when you pointed it out 💀 Dude looks like he’s getting raptured

It's been a pleasure to rewatch Naruto with you 🥲 Can't wait for the best moments of Shippuden ❤

I used to search for anime like naruto after finishing it but there can never be another show greater than this.

Almost fell out of my chair laughing at 13:35 when he realised what he said: "This is how it should be ... riding your brother". "BACK, back, brother's back" LOL

1:13:49 Incoming Neck-Sake Moment😂

If you ever find the time to do so, id like to recommend the Naruto movies as well, i can promise you, they dont dissapoint.

Nicholas I love your reaction on Naruto, but please now on Shippuden make one episode or two for video

Havent watched this in a decade and it still holds up! I also forgot half of the episodes was the Uchiha lore flashback omg Ngl Kishimoto did well with the premise, with Sasuke’s genetic cheat + Orochimary boost VS Naruto’s 9-tails fox. The fight was balanced pretty well with stakes on both sides, respect!

I CANT WAIT FOR SHIPPUDEN

Thanks alot Nick now i want to rewatch Naruto for the 10th time 😭

Ура!!! Этот бой - произведение искусства по тем годам. Режиссура, анимация, музыка, хореография. Флешбеки очень интересные у Наруто и Саске. Рост силы, саспенс, игра сейю Саске и Наруто🤗 А уж сколько AMV было по Линкин Парк в нашем детстве🤣 По сути, благодаря этому боюсь я началаж смотреть и любить аниме 15 лет назад, и всё ещё смотрю новые и старые песни😎

That animation on sasuke 🤣 🤣

one of the best fight I want nick to watch !thank you nick!

Naruto shippuden ❌️ Disney pixar's : finding sasuke ✅️

Apparently, Neji was supposed to actually die in this fight! But the writers scrapped it because it would be too dark
