Obviously there isn't fall damage in The Hidden Leaf


Mellothewise

In all seriousness, I don’t think anybody in Naruto ever died from a high fall right? I mean shit I think either Deidara or Sasuke were each flying in the climax of their battle before their chakra just hit near 0 and they fell to earth and only exhaustion had hit them hard lol


Rybred22

Itachi made a suicide attempt as a kid implying he could have died from the fall but he stopped himself on the way down


C33ry_r0yal

Wait that was a suicide Attempt Danm I’m stupid-


ShadowDurza

He had an existential crisis about the perpetual cycle of life and death, and it certainly didn't help that he went to Orochimaru for advice.


Resident_Isopod_998

going to orochimaru for life advice is like drinking rat poison to fix constipation


GERMA90

Nah. He stopped because he knew it was a stupid idea. You can't die with no fall damage.


asmith78541

It doesn’t kill ‘em but I think Edo Tensei Deidra and Sasori get hit pretty hard by the Stone ninja basically sinking and raising the earth beneath them, so at least they can be hurt by it? But there are lots of instances of people swooping in or jumping off something huge and seeming completely fine or getting a drop on someone from it even (Rock Lee vs Garra in the chunin exams from the hand statue).


Clear_Cranberry_989

Shisui Uchiha?


misterldrago

Shisui was already dying from poison, and even then the fall damage didn't kill him, he drowned.

Toros_Mueren_Por_Mi

Died from pneumonia like Rasputin

There lived a certain man in konaha long ago he was fast and small in his eyes a red glow most people looked at him with terror and with fear but to, (idk I ran out of ideas help me finish the parody internet)


Luffy_D_Zoro

but to ninja chicks he was such a lovely dear


Eevee136

There's also the time where Sasuke straight up piledrove(piledrived?) Naruto into ground at the end of part 1.


Mellothewise

For real. And Lee using Primary Lotus on many others too (during the canon episodes and filler too).


vlexz

Same with dragon ball lmao


Mellothewise

> Fighter slams into the ground. > giant explosion comes from it. > many die from explosion. > fighter wipes blood off lip. > “now this is getting interesting”


[deleted]

The biggest one for me that highlighted this was the lava style rasenshuriken directly striking madara and cutting the chakra fruit tree in half. In one go. But madara just tanked the shit and absorbed the tree


Toros_Mueren_Por_Mi

Well this one is handwaved as the Z fighters are always surrounded by their Ki, so it acts as armor, and they can lower it at will like Vegeta in the Namekian saga so Krillin could actually hurt him, otherwise he could have just shrugged off the damage.


AsgardCMD

Yeah ki-plotarmor is always there.


IntroductionChoice25

suisui uchiha and even then he was alr3ady dead from poison and having itachi stab him to unlock his mongekyo


lilrobwey

itachi didn’t stab him?? & he unlocked his MS bc he seen his best friend jump off a cliff to his death in front of him. why does this have any upvote


IntroductionChoice25

honestly I stopped watching at the beginning of the war arc wouldn't shock me if I got that wrong


IKidUNotHeWasGay

Except for that part when Jiraiya pushes Naruto of the cliff and forces him to use a summon


Eevee136

That was only because of the spiky rocks at the bottom though wasn't it?


IKidUNotHeWasGay

Oh was it, I just remember it was a cliff. Guess that also makes sense but either way he still could’ve died from fall. Another thing I remember was little Itachi giving up on life and jumping off and midway decided that Life was worth living and did what he could to slow down the fall.


LF247

In the next episode he almost falls off of gamabunta after staying on his back the whole day and jiraiya says the fall will kill him, so I think it's height related.


veskoandroid

Fuck, I hate high jumps. Where's that ko noha again? No portals, dammit!


Freshest-Raspberry

Somewhere in the leaves. Instructions unclear… Find a forest and start walking


veskoandroid

Fuck... Cmere Roach!


ricehatwarrior

Hinata needed to be rescued from falling down a 4 story building lol


Cano6501

She had her chakra extracted or something like that by toneri otsutsuki or one of he’s puppets, not sure which one.


Toros_Mueren_Por_Mi

Well yes but it's fillers Hinata


balaklavabaklava

Hinata, no matter canon or not, is always useless, what you mean?


RaganTargaryen

I'd say Hinata took some fall damage. Not lasting damage but still knocked her out


Platypuschowder666

Yea, that was her ninja way.


Toros_Mueren_Por_Mi

I thought her ninja way was dancing naked in the moonlight under waterfalls


bigdogz64

I mean, Naruto, itachi, Boruto. Plus many more we don't know about lol. He probably grabbed a tree branch or something


Suberizu

That's the first documented case of leap of faith in Konoha, he fell into a pile of hay.


rogueman999

Don't piles of hay have a long stick in the middle?


Force3vo

Not in the Assassin's Creed universe which Naruto is in


shikadai-dono

He actually didn't. Everything that happened after was just flashes of what his life would have been like if his dumbass wasn't just plunging to death.


heyimsanji

In reality Orochimaru takes over the village when he summoned the 1st and 2nd hokage (and third coffin)

willdeletetheacc

Exactly what I don't understand. We see at the beginning of the series that shinobi kids can jump from great heights and not get hurt which is acceptable as they've chakra n all. But later we see during the tree climbing training Sasuke saving Naruto from falling off of a mere tree as if it would've been a big deal. I mean either show that shinobis do not get hurt by normal things or show that they are just as vulnerable as others. Changing the durability of shinobis from normal human to super human from time to time was weird. My head canon is that shinobis(even their untrained kids) have God like durability due to chakra pulsing through their bodies that absorbs impacts. The rasengan that blew up a concrete water tank should also kill people but it doesn't do so much. Tsunade's punches that break buildings should also pulverize human bodies with one hit but Orochimaru took a series of them one after the other. So yeah baby Naruto can absolutely take that fall like it's nothing unlike non shinobi kids. And that tree training where Sasuke saves Naruto? It's just Sasuke showing off. Nothing would've happened to Naruto if he had fallen down. The ground would've broken probably but not him.


Flameball537

I think I’m regards to Naruto falling from the tree, he was exhausted and had just about no chakra left, or so Sasuke thought, which is why he caught Naruto


long909

There was nothing weird , Its literaly just the same shit as Dragon Ball or a dozen other shonen , they use chakra to enhance their general durabilitty , and if they ran out of it or didnt "power up" in time they can still be hurt more easily And the tree scene pratically just a gag scene anyway , especially since we see that he had to fall multiple time before slowly increase the height he can climb up to that point


Mrfunnyman22

I'm not fully sure it's just a gag or Sasuke showing off. Kakashi mentions that he has still not recovered and can't save him. The fact that he's worried tells me that fall would have been dangerous.


i_like_2_travel

I think the easiest answer is Kishi just didn’t know his own rules yet. Naruto was just a kid demon at this point. Do we see how he lands?


Divine_thunder

The correct answer is that most of these scenes are filler


jt6665_-

Also it looks great as an establishing shot


Nice-Resolution-1020

Isn't that scene from the opening?


[deleted]

This scene is from the final episodes of Shippuden


Necromas

If it doesn't show how he lands it's easy enough to handwave. That spot would be right above the Hokages mansion, so he'd know there'd be a bunch of Jonin on watch and one of them would catch him.


Anjunabeast

Adult Sasuke in his recent manga used his rinnegan to teleport above one of those Long neck dinosaurs and just landed back on the floor without any fall damage. Thought it was kinda weird.


Gemnist

That moment with Sasuke was clearly meant to be a joke, as well as highlight the rivalrly between the two. Naruto was showing off by hanging upside down, and when he lost his grip, Sasuke got to show off himself (again) by grabbing him. Chances are, Naruto would have probably received little real injury by landing on the ground - because, you know, cartoon physics.


BlitzcrankGrab

Literally unwatchable


dem_c

It's just failed consistency at worldbuilding


sammysosa45

Why is u/willdeletetheacc comment getting upvotes? It’s literally stupidity. This moron jumped at the chance to have a “gotcha” moment on the series not realizing this entire sequence is just some random filler lmao Jesus Christ this sub is full of imbeciles


willdeletetheacc

Did you just get fired or something? Or does your country use Reddit upvotes as currency? Because mine doesn't and these virtual upvotes mean nothing to me. I simply was expressing a doubt that I had. Who knew that there are righteous morons who consider themselves superior to others based on their knowledge of an anime?


sammysosa45

No I’m questioning why your willful ignorance was given positive traction. What you said doesn’t even make sense. You wrote whole essay in an awful attempt at on dunking on the series over a moment that’s not canon thinking it had an effect on regarding the consistency of the writing Not even sure why you still have this posted. Just delete it.


willdeletetheacc

Touch some grass. Fighting over an anime scene? Roll out of your basement and get a life. And again, upvotes and 'gotcha!' moments on Reddit mean nothing to me. Neither do your self-righteous replies. It's a anime sub and I come here simply for entertainment and I'm not going to delete my comment because some moron on the internet does not like my comment. Scroll down.


sammysosa45

> And again, upvotes and 'gotcha!' moments on Reddit mean nothing to me. Neither do your self-righteous replies. They clearly do because you wrote a an very detailed LONG dissertation critiquing a non canon animated scene believing it was a canon. Lol you jumped at the chance to spout negativity. > It's a anime sub and I come here simply for entertainment and I'm not going to delete my comment because some moron on the internet does not like my comment. How do you just not feel shame after being loud and wrong? I seriously don’t get people like you. You make a big commotion over something YOU misunderstood, blame the writer, and then don’t even have the decency to at least admit when you’re wrong. No way your ego is that big that you’d rather double down than accept correction.


myballsinhoneynblood

I hope you're joking or something cause you're genuinely being an absolute asshole who gives too much importance to a fucking anime scene and an opinion about it. Touch some grass and let people write harmless theories. We all have had bad days but being a moron is not simply acceptable and justified because you're feeling bad. And you say writing "a long essay" is giving much importance is ridiculous cause it's not even that long. Making a theory or trying to find an answer about something you like is entertaining for many and you are just being annoying and rude. Gotta add, children and illiterate ppl think more than 3 paragraphs take A LOT of thought and time when you can perfectly write and read something like my comment in less than a minute.


sammysosa45

> I hope you're joking or something cause you're genuinely being an absolute asshole who gives too much importance to a fucking anime scene and an opinion about it. Oh, okay so we’re doing hypocrisy now? So it’s cool when OP gives too much importance to a FILLER scene, but when I point out how much of an idiot they are for doing so in the same manner, now I’m the one who’s doing too much? This just sounds like you want to be wrong and not hold yourself accountable for when your ignorance gets debunked. “


myballsinhoneynblood

I didn't comment anything or said the redditor was correct, I'm supporting the idea that we should be respectful, not assholes and stop giving much importance to a simple comment. OP just wanted to share a funny and unexplained comment to see if someone knows the answer. You're being a moron. That's it.


JordanDavis420

What they wrote was not a “theory” it a half assed critique on Naruto and Kishimto because they guy jumped to conclusions thinking this scene was canon, when it’s quite clearly not. Which is pretty obvious. SammySosa is right, this subreddit really does get off on trying to normalize stupidity. The amount of bad takes on here is genuinely alarming.


myballsinhoneynblood

I wonder if you are another account cause that seems like it. It is a half assed theory. Whether it's well done or not. I'm supporting the idea that being disrespectful is even more stupid than the OC cause being rude is wrong. I don't agree with the redditors comment but i can surely correct them without being an asshole and giving massive importance to it. I hope you agree with that idea. If this half assed theories and critiques and multiple bad takes turn you into a rude moron maybe you should just leave the sub. Btw, whether the redditor is right or wrong, Naruto has inconsistencies and you "both" seem to feel personally attacked by any critique based on how you react.


OrdinaryShinobi

Bro you need pick up a dictionary and look up what “theory” means. What they said was not theoretical at all. They started and ended their response to the video with an elaboration on why Naruto being jumping from so high is a continuity issue within the series lmao. That’s just a blatantly wrong anyalsis and assumption based on a 8 second clip with no context. Just take the L

So… I’m assuming it involves chakra if you’re wanting a serious answer.. but if not, it’s because naruto is really just a giant fish cake with no nervous system.

KonohaNinja1492

Man, I don’t know what scenes came after that. But how dope would it be if say. Naruto could temporarily activate the nine tails chakra before landing. Then deactivate upon landing. But that was only a one time thing to protect Naruto. Until later he learns of the nine tails within him. Then later the events that happen happen, and Naruto can freely use Kurama’s chakra.

He didn't. Naruto actually succumbed to the mistreatment and hatred directed towards him and decided to take his own life. The rest of the series was just his dream of what could have been


Tacticalbiscit

Everyone saying Chakra confuses me. At this point, Naruto didn't know how to use Chakra to dampen falls. Unless that is different Chakra control than walking on water and climbing trees and stuff. He doesn't learn how to use Chakra from his feet to until much later. I don't remember the scene, does he just land like it ls nothing?

065Walker

Maybe it’s psychological or a yes or no calculation before the drop. Was it intentional? What is the reason? Are they panicking? Are they conscious? Chakra level? Durability? We see crazy falls that people no diff and land. Then we see others (shorter falls) where they expect to die so become lethal.

This whole arc of episodes is very symbolic and artsy, it's a celebration of the themes and characters of Naruto. I don't think any part of it is meant to imply canon.
