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.
