Naruto the Abridged Series is a parody of the anime series Naruto and was the second abridged series created. It shows the characters in ways most people see them, such as Naruto having ADD, Sasuke being emo, and Sakura being useless, all for comedic effect. There are also recurring themes not found in the anime, such as the one foot tall brick wall, Clucky and The Log. It also mentions other anime such as Sailor Moon, Pokemon, One Piece, and Inuyasha.

History[]

Humble Beginnings[]

During the Summer of 2006, MaskakoX and Vegeta3986 came up with ideas for a parody, not knowing what show they wanted to spoof. Not long after they stumbled upon LittleKuriboh's Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series, which gave them the idea to cover a series that the two had both seen, which turned out to be the original Naruto series. Vegeta3986 would write the first draft of the scripts, which then would lead to Masako reading over and making changes , to which Masako would then send back to Vegeta3986 for final approval.

MasakoX's E"X"it[]

In 2011, MasakoX the co-creator and voice actor, left the production of Naruto The Abridged Series, for personal reasons (while some say it is because the series has ran it's course, some speculation leads to people thinking that Vegeta3986 was hard to work with, which was why some believe led to his departure from the popular group known as TeamFourStar). His voice roles were replaced by ZeroMaster as well as his role as editor. Since his leaving, there have been only 2 episodes produced and production seems to have been slowed down, though ZeroMaster said that it would continue, and a new channel has been sited for future uploads.

  • Temari and Hinata dating the show's creators (Vegeta3986 and MasakoX, respectively)

  • Ninja easily seeing through each other's disguises
  • Kakashi's obsession with animals especially saying "Moo" whenever he shakes a carton of milk. Naruto later discovers that Kakashi loves to shake a carton of milk because it plays the 'Make Out Paradise' book on tape as read by Arnold Schwarzenegger.
  • Orochimaru and occasionally other characters wearing odd T-shirts (most famously the "I am Naruto" shirt)

  • Random interruptions in the middle of fights, speeches, or flashbacks (often for advertisements)
