Episode 25; An Off-The-Cuff Match! The 10th Question That We Must Hold
Out On: Time ticks away until the 10th problem is given. There is one special rule for it - what they call a hopeless rule. The three rookie Genin sensei, Kakashi, Asuma, and Yuuhi, sit outside the testing room wondering how their teams are doing. They note that Ibiki is Konoha ANBU’s torture and interrogation squad leader, so they are certain that he is mentally torturing and interrogating his exam participants. Inside, Ibiki explains that everyone must choose if they wish to take the tenth problem, however, those who choose not to take it will fail. The other rule is that if they choose to take it and get it wrong, they will lose the privilege of taking the Chuunin exam forever. Several participants decide not to take it. Naruto slowly raises his hand, but slams it down, announcing that he is ready for final question. With that outburst, Naruto wipes out everyone else’s uncertainty and the 78 remaining all decide to take the last question. Ibiki then announces that everyone there passes. There was no such thing as the 10th question. He then explains that the test’s purpose lies in the first rule: that their pass-fail decision is based on their three person teams. The point was to put lots of pressure on them so they would strive not to let down their teams. However, the current exam problems can’t be solved by Genin, so the exam initially assumed that everyone would cheat. They snuck to two Chuunins who knew all the answers to be the targets of cheating. They wanted everyone to use their stealth in order to test how well refined their information gathering skills were. The tenth question was a two choice problem - to take it or not. He explains a similar real-life ninja mission that carries heavy risks and how courage and confidence are necessary. Chuunins need to be steadfast in their unwavering decisions. Suddenly, their new examiner breaks in through the window and announces that second examiner, Mitarashi Anko is here. After observing that 78 participants of the original 153 are still remaining, she is convinced that Ibiki was too easy on them and vows to fail more than half of the remaining participants. Next morning, everyone shows up at the 44th training area - the Forest of Death. Episode 26; Must Watch! Report Before Entering The Forest Of Death!: Everyone is checking out the forbidden area forest of death where the second part of the exam will be taking place. Konohamaru and gang sneak up behind Naruto in his completely obvious box. The three introduce themselves: Moegi, the one who possesses the sex appeal of an adult and the female ninja from the senior group, Udon, the one who loves dividing numbers, and Konohamaru, the village’s number one genius ninja - the Konohamaru Corps. Naruto tries to explain that he doesn’t have time to play, but Konohamaru wants to ask Naruto questions for the school’s newspaper. Anko agrees to let them do the story. Chapter of Rin, Character Introduction: Naruto is a ninja, who’s hobby is pulling pranks. He loves ramen & became a Genin just recently. At the ninja academy, everyone labeled him a dropout but he passed the Genin exam with Iruka-sensei’s help to become a member of Kakashi’s 7th squad along with Sakura and Sasuke. His life goal is to become greater than all Hokages in the past. Sasuke, from Naruto’s perspective, is a conceited kid. He is a member of the Uchiha clan, and overall, a miserable guy. Naruto transformed into him once to get close to Sakura, but his plan didn’t work out quite like he would have hoped. Naruto introduces Sakura as the girl who’s in love with him. This story is quickly interrupted and declared a lie. Back to the main story, the three Genin work as a team to accomplish dangerous missions. Naruto usually ends up getting in trouble, while the other two tend to come to his rescue. Konohamaru is grandson of the third Hokage, the current leader of the village. The 4th Hokage was a hero who protected the village from a monster fox. Iruka-sensei was the first to recognize Naruto, and because of that, Naruto looks up to him.
