Other fun tidbits
Naruto and Basilisk's Kouga Clan
Effects of Gennosuke’s dojutsu is similar to the Yamanaka shinranshin no jutsu, where an opponent gets confused but attacks a comrade instead.
Muroga Hyouma and Uchiha Itachi keep their dojutsu activated all the time.
Akin to Akimichi Chouji’s nekudan sensha, Udono Jousuke can boulder-roll over an enemy.
Jimushi Jubei, one without limbs, slithers like a snake and keeps a sword sheathed in his throat just like Orochimaru and his kusanagi.
Kidomaru’s web abilities are analogous to Kazamachi Shogen’s secretion of phlegm, which is sticky enough to immobilize an opponent.
Naruto and Basilisk's Iga Clan
Yakushiji Tenzen and Aburame Shino are born sharing their bodies with other organisms. Contrary to Shino, Tenzen’s are described as demonic in nature.
Hyuga Neji was asked by his late father to protect Hinata and the Hyuga. Chikuma Koshiro vowed to protect Oboro and the Iga.
Koshiro also uses senpu kamaitachi, a technique that creates mini tornadoes using his breath to suck his opponents and tatter them to pieces. Temari uses kamaitachi no jutsu to create slitting whirlwinds.
Jiraiya’s ninpo marin jijizo transforms his hair into spines. Mino Nenki can use his hair like hands and feet.
Yashamaru is an expert of garrote wires as Sasuke is to sofushasan no tachi.
Chouji is also associated to butterflies (chou means butterfly). Hotarubi summons them to hide herself and distract enemies.
Azuki Rousai can extend his limbs to attack his opponents while Chouji can partially boost a body part by bubun baika no jutsu.

Status: former heir of Hanabishi Properties
Family: 1 grandfather and other relatives ; deceased parents
Parallelisms
1. Detachment.
Sasuke was often detached after the Uchiha clan massacre. The formation of Team 7 somehow helped him cope with his plight.
Kaoru was a loner, until he was recruited by the university’s Photography Club. Unlike Sasuke, however, Kaoru became happier and is more appreciative of the people around him.
2. Preoccupation of fan girls.
3. Defection.
Sasuke left Konoha to become stronger and severed all his ‘bonds’.
Because of ill treatment, Kaoru left Hanabishi and vowed never to return.
Hyuga Hinata and Sakuraba Aoi
“I can share feelings with you. So please, do not grieve alone.” – Sakuraba AoiHyuga Hinata Status: heir of Hyuga Sakuraba Aoi
Status: heir of Sakuraba Corporation
Parallelisms
1. Years of affection towards someone they hold dear.
2. Modesty.
3. Ryokucha (green tea).
Other fun tidbits
When Kaoru hugged Aoi, he was reminded of the warmth of his late mother.
Uchiha Mikoto and Hinata possibilities:
1. To heal.
Mikoto once applied cream to Sasuke’s burns from performing katon jutsus.
Whether Hinata prepares it herself or otherwise, she has been carrying salve during their genin days.
2. Blood type: A
The Japanese have a belief that blood types can help determine a person’s personality, disposition and compatibility.
People with A blood type are said to gentle and sensitive; they are most compatible with individuals having A and AB blood types.
On the other hand, people with AB blood type are said to be cool and controlled. Character examples include Fugaku and Sasuke, among others.
NOTES
The similarities between Sasuke and Kaoru are only those mentioned. Ai Yori Aoshi contains less angst with lots of slices of life.

Manga published by KID. Anime produced by JC Staff.“After I finish everything, I’ll be back. I’ll come back to you.” – Kusanagi MamoruSasuke
Family: 1 brother ; deceased parents and relatives
Weapon: Kusanagi
Mentor: Orochimaru
Sasuke may portray Susanoo, based on the theory of Shinto Trinity I (
Family: presumed dead
Weapon: ‘metamorphosed arms’ may be used like a katana
Mentor: chosen by Yamata no Orochi, an aragami, to protect the Kushinada. For some reason, the death of the Kushinada also leads to the death of the aragami.
In Blue Seed, Kusanagi Mamoru and Susanoo are two different characters.
Susanoo appeared only in the last few episodes and didn’t directly engage in a battle against Yamata no Orochi.
Parallelisms
1. Snake's seal.
Like Sasuke, Mamoru was given a ‘seal’ by Yamata no Orochi. They come in the form of seven magatama beads embedded onto different parts of his body.
At times, the reaction can inflict pain.
2. The ‘seals’ allow Sasuke and Mamoru to metamorphose and elevate their strength.
3. Mamoru uses an unnamed technique similar to an electric current, which may be almost identical to Sasuke’s lightning affinity.
Hyuga Hinata and Fujimiya Momiji
“Of course, I thought I might bother you, that I might not be able to do anything. You do ridiculous things all the time! I have to worry about you…” – Fujimiya MomijiHinata
Bloodline ability: Byakugan – Hyuga kekkei genkai
Hinata may portray Kushinada-hime, based on the theory of Shinto Trinity II (
Descendant of Kushinada-hime
Bloodline ability: a Kushinada virgin’s blood is used to seal aragami
Parallelisms
1. The birth of Momiji and her elder twin sister Kaede resulted to ‘opposing forces’ leading to the reawakening of the aragami, some of which wanted retaliation for their confinement by the Kushinada family.
Momiji is loud and clumsy while Kaede is well-mannered and witty.
Hinata appears to be a cross-over. She is well-mannered but can be gawky.
Note also the hair style and color. Hinata, to date, has longer blue hair.
2. Like Momiji, Hinata is aware of her weaknesses but is determined to overcome her shortcomings.
Other fun tidbits
A blossom named Sakura,
who has her share of fan boys,
but seems to set her eyes on one.
They can be gaudy but are competent fighters.
Yamazaki Sakura, like Uzumaki Naruto, is skilled in hiding pain behind a bright smile.
Naruto and Blue Seed’s Aragami
Naruto’s rasengan looked similar to Yagami Murakumo’s technique (which isn’t really compressed charka).
Murakumo is a minion of Yamata no Orochi who was also granted magatama beads like Mamoru.
He may be comparable to Kaguya Kimimaro, Sasuke’s predecessor as Orochimaru’s vessel.
While Yakushi Kabuto may (or may not) revive Orochimaru, Murakumo successfully metamorphosed into Yamata no Orochi.
A toad aragami’s technique is akin to Gamabunta and Jiraiya’s katon, gamayo emudan,
as Katsuyu’s zesshi nensan is probably as acidic as the sting of a jellyfish aragami.
The byakugan makes a cameo, unfortunately by some of the villains.
NOTES
Blue Seed is widely based on Japanese myth. Some changes were made for plot-adaptation. Prior familiarity with related myths is an advantage before reading the manga or watching the anime.
HinaMatsuri: Glad to see and hear from you! Welcome!

Yuki and Hiro
Sasuke and Yuki Parallelisms
1. Despite their popularity (especially on the opposite sex), Sasuke and Yuki have initial disinterest in socializing with others.
Sasuke thinks he is superior to others and sees that working with them only makes him weaker.
Yuki suffered physical and mental abuse resulting to low self-esteem.
2. A prodigy in his own right.
Sasuke is an extremely talented ninja.
Yuki is the Student Council President.
3. Hatred towards an older sibling.
Uchiha Itachi is assumed to be the culprit behind the Uchiha Clan annihilation.
Sohma Ayame grew up most of the time separate from Yuki to the point that sometimes he forgets his younger brother even existed.
Sasuke and Hiro Parallelisms
1. Sarcasm.
While Sasuke can spat a word of arrogance, Hiro can do three sentences.
2. Blood type: AB
In the Japanese blood type mythology*, a person with blood type AB is cool, intellectual and gives more value to reason than emotion.
Hyuga Hinata and Kuragi Machi ; Sohma Kisa
Hinata
Machi and Kisa
Hinata and Machi Parallelisms
1. Quiet and gentle disposition.
2. Hinata and Machi have been pressured to be perfect (albeit failing) and have been reprimanded for their weaknesses.
3. Heiress.
Hinata is heir of Hyuga.
For sometime, Machi was considered heir to her father until her younger brother is born.
4. Nii-san.
Hinata calls her cousin, Neji, nii-san (elder brother). Neji should have been heir of Hyuga had his father been retained as a Main House member.
Machi has an illegitimate half-brother, Manabe Kakeru, who was pitted against her as heir of their father.
Important Note #1: Machi only appears in the manga. Those who watched only the anime may not be familiar with her.
Important Note #2: Hinata is well-mannered while Machi has tendencies to dislike anything ‘perfect’ as she is threatened by it (possibly because of her shortcomings).
Important Note #3: Yuki and Machi have similar emotional issues (low self-esteem).
So does Sasuke and Hinata (lack of familial acknowledgment; competition with an elder relative).
Hinata and Kisa Parallelisms
1. Shy and introverted.
2. Blood type: A
* A person with blood type A is sensitive, yielding and nurturing.
Other fun tidbits
Love polygon of Team 7,
and Fruits Basket's Yuki, Honda Tohru and Sohma Kyou.
Uzumaki Naruto challenges Sasuke as Sohma Kyou challenges Yuki.
Naruto and Kyou are treated as outcasts. Naruto has a nine-tailed demon fox sealed within him while Kyou is cursed and can transform into a vengeful cat.
Note that the cat is not a member of the 12 animals of the Chinese zodiac.

2) The strong love for one they may never have.
3) Love for someone who's heart is stolen.
4) Absolutely adorable!
Alright, time for Sasuke and Fakir!
1) Dark and always scowling.
2) Highly skilled.
3) Uncomparable smirk...
4) Caring to brother figure and best friend.

Since Princess Tutu is an anime all about Drama and romance, not much can be compared to Naruto so there's not many simularities. But from what I've seen in the anime, it makes it seem that Sasuhina can happen. Just because Hinata likes/'loves' Naruto, it doesn't mean they'll be together. From what I've took note, half the time in anime the first person a boy loves he'll always hold onto them. Can be different for a girl though...
And, also, since we here are SasuHina fans, the love chart from PT can really seem familiar... Fakir---Ahiru---Mytho---Kraehe. It's even said that Kraehe once liked Fakir, but he rejected her. Sounds familiar, eh?
Here's a small chart.
(Sasuke=Fakir, Hinata=Ahiru, Naruto=Mytho, and Sakura=Kraehe)
Naruto's simularities w/ Mytho are: The Cluelessness, the seemingly density to Hinata/Ahiru's love, eyes set on another (Sakura/Kraehe), and has an inner demon that talks to them.
Sakura's simularities w/ Princess Kraehe/Rue are: Snotty but have a good heart, greatly admired, and over-obsessive about the one they love.
(Note: Sasuke could be considered to be Mytho and Fakir, but most certainly Fakir. Hinata could be considered to be Rue and Ahiru, but mostly Ahiru. Naruto has nothing in common w/ Fakir. Ahiru may have a couple things in common with Sakura, but that's only that sometimes she can be loud and ask alot of questions. Other than that, they're completely different wereas Ahiru is kind, gentle, friendly, seemingly unimportant social wise,clumsy, adorable, easily depressive, soft-spoken, and upon turning into Princess Tutu she's graceful, wise, elegant, and sincere. Much like a certain Hyuuga we all know.)

DONE!!!
Ryoji
Sasuke and Ryoji Parallelisms
1. Cool and composed disposition.
2. Both are initially admired by the main heroine of the story.
Hyuga Hinata and Tanaka Chiharu
Hinata
Chiharu
Hinata and Chiharu Parallelisms
1. Coy demeanor.
2. The main hero connection.
Hinata admires Naruto.
Otani admires Chiharu (reversed).
Other fun tidbits
The main heroine shares an even love-hate (whether platonic or romantic) relationship with the main hero of the story…
… and may(?) care for him more than she lets on.
Important Note #1: Otani actually punches Koizumi back which Naruto probably will never do to Sakura.
Important Note#2: Love square difference.
Important Note #3: Hinata glows hot in Naruto, while Ryoji does in Lovely Complex.
