Imagination and Fantation: 2011

Uchiha Sasuke's sword made its debut on the popular manga Naruto Chapter 308 and the sheet name was the subject of debate among fans from around the world highly. In the chapter entitled "The strength of Sasuke" taichou Yamato tried to stop Uchiha Sasuke's sword with his kunai but failed. Instead his kunai was cut in two by Sasuke's sword. Sasuke later quoted "You see, the sword of Kusanagi I have here is a bit special. It's the kind that can not be blocked." This caused some confusion because readers who have followed the manga from the beginning we know that Orochimaru also had a sword of Kusanagi when he fought with the 3rd Hokage, the only difference is Orochimaru's Kusanagi looked more like a katana.

Sasuke Sword of Kusanagi is a chokuto is a Japanese sword straight. The design of the chokuto was originally from China and Korea. That developed before the Japanese blacksmiths discovered differential heat treatment which later gave birth to the best martial arts weapon ever - the Japanese katana. The chokuto is easily distinguished by its straight blade which is a rare feature in most Japanese swords these days.

The Kusanagi or more popularly known as the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi (Sword of Kusanagi) actually originated from a Japanese myth. Legend has it that the Japanese god Susa-no-or Ashinazuchi met with the head of a family with eight daughters. Ashinazuchi previously lost seven of their daughters, devoured by a huge eight-headed serpent called Yamata no Orochi. The snake was to return to feast in his last daughter Kushinade-hime. The desperate Ashinazuchi asked Susa-no-or to save his daughter that the Japanese God agreed, in exchange for her hand in marriage Kushinade-hime.

Susa-no-o devised a plan and instructions to prepare eight vats of sake Ashinazuchi, each placed separately behind a wall with eight gates. The giant serpent came and took the bait, slithering each of its eight heads through each gate. In one instance, Susa-no-o emerged and severed all eight heads before turning to the tail of the snake. Susa-no-o later found a sword on the dead body of Yamata no Orochi, which he named Ama-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi or "Sword of the clouds of heaven." He then presented the sword to the goddess Amaterasu to settle an old grievance. The name of the sword was later changed to Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi.

In the manga Naruto, Orochimaru calls out the Kusanagi sword from the mouth of a serpent (snake's head protruding from Orochimaru's mouth). Character Orochimaru, who is skilled in snake jutsu is drawn from the serpent Yamata no Orochi. In chapter 392, Orochimaru broke free from the control of Sasuke and uses his Hydra technique to reappear as a giant eight-headed snake. But unlike the story in myth, Susa-no is the name of the last jutsu that Uchiha Itachi used together with the Sword of Totsuka to seal Orochimaru in a genjutsu illusion for all eternity. The jutsu Susa-no took the form of a giant spirit with sharp nose, sharp teeth and three hands - one with a shield, a transport of a container and the rest of the hand wielding the sword of Totsuka when it is released from the container.

In typical problems, Naruto sets a trap Jounin his master very late, but Sasuke is not convinced that a teacher can fall into a trap door rubber. The door opens, the draft falls with Klunk right at the top of Kakashi, and students are disappointed. Is this really a Jounin Ninja? And what does Kakashi think of these children. In a low voice and emotion his breath, he says, "My first impression of you. I hate you." The kids are surprised!

Gather outside the submission. Naruto wants his teacher to begin. Kakashi gives his name, says he has no intention of telling their likes and dislikes, are not caught in a dream, and says he has many hobbies. Sakura complains, "So all we noticed was his name."

Naruto described himself openly. He likes cup ramen, who hate the three minutes you have to wait for the ramen to cook, his hobby is eating and compare ramens cup, and dreams of becoming bigger than all the Hokage before.

Sakura is the following. She can not take his eyes of Sasuke. She will not admit he likes, never declares his hobby, not the status of your dreams, and when Kakashi asks what she hates, she replies, "Naruto! "The professor believes that girls her age are more interested in the love of ninjutsu.

Uchiha Sasuke is the last to appear, saying simply that there are many things he hates, dislikes, and his ambition is to revive his clan and kill a man. While Kakashi is discouraged to the three students without hope, anger Naruto looks at Sasuke. "I hope he is not referring to me!"

Kakashi announces that he will begin training to survive the next day, warning them of the 27 graduates, only nine will become ninjas. The rest will be sent back to academia. They will meet next morning at 5 o'clock, with his team ninja and are prohibited from eating breakfast.

The next morning, the three students hungry ride, and wait patiently. Once again, Kakashi is late. When he arrives, he is using two bells. They were notified that they must try to have a bell on him. That is their mission. Who does not have any lunch. Naruto proclaims how you will succeed. Kakashi explains that this glory, saying: "In society, those who do not have many skills tend to talk big. Just ignore the guy with the lowest score."

Naruto is outraged. It has been called a fool for Sasuke. Now, his teacher, who is the guy with the lowest score. Back at the academy, Hokage-sama reveals a startling truth Iruka-sensei. Children teacher, Kakashi has never passed anyone.

Back in training camp, Kakashi gives his first tip. "Based on a ninja is to hide its presence and hide." Sakura and Sasuke ran to hide in the bushes. Naruto, however, is bravely fighting Kakashi at that time. Kakashi mutters, "You're a little weird compared to the rest?" Naruto snaps back, "The strange thing is the hair!"

Naruto attacks, losing sight of the teacher, and a voice comes from behind the student confused: "A ninja must not let the enemy get behind him an idiot!" Then Naruto slams firmly behind, and the child flies in the river. But the young student ninja is not so easily defeated. It starts a shadow replication technique and sends seven Narutos jumping out of the water and crouch to the teacher. Kakashi correctly guess that was the technique he had used to defeat Mizuki, but knows that Naruto is still Naruto and therefore very incompetent. While seven Narutos attack, an additional hop mysterious figure behind. Naruto has created the replicant extra attack, while the front is always a distraction. From the bushes, Sakura and Sasuke are impressed by tactics of his companion. However, the teacher fades, which became one of the replicants, and escaped.

The eager Naruto can not see his master, but sees a solitary bell lying on the grass. He jumps out of it, a trap is released, and the winds silly boy hanging upside down from the heels of a tree. Kakashi reappears. "Do not fall into an obvious trap idiot!" Then given one of the most important lessons they can contribute.

"Ninjas should think beyond the ordinary." And add to that, "His movements are full of unnecessary movement."

Worried about Naruto, Sasuke Kakashi sees no advantage of the distraction has been initiated Shuriken attack the bushes, sending rain of knives to the teacher. Knives pierce clothing and Kakashi sent crashing to the ground. The episode ends with Naruto horrified thinking that his team has been exaggerated.

The significance of this episode is to introduce students and the public powers and the principles of a Jounin teacher achieved. Like the characters to learn and absorb its formation, the audience follows the action and evaluates the standards and principles for themselves. Not all the magic and invention, but a long and difficult to study that all students have to travel.
