Is Avatar the Last Airbender a rip-off of Naruto?

Answer 1

Answer 2

hell yeah naruto

Avatar: Last Airbender is far more better than Naruto. I will give the reasons as to why this is true: firstly, Avatar is very story orientated, especially in season 2 and episodes that do not contribute to the plot, always have further character development. All characters have their own unique and realistic personality, even the villains are not one-dimensional. Episodes are epic and very intelligent, always holding a hidden meaning to them which you might not get at first chance. A plus is that the villains are not weak and do actually triumph, not in small ways, but in gigantic ways that even effect entire nations in the Avatar World.

I suppose I should also give you some brief information Avatar:

Avatar World & Wielders: The Avatar World is of world of which is made up of four nations: The Fire nation, Earth Kingdom, Water Tribe and Air Nomads; various special people can wield one of four elements, depending on their nation mostly. This very interesting, because the characters are not overpowered like in Naruto, so they therefore have to struggle and use their heads, not just their very cool element they control.

Characters brief description:

Protagonist:

Aang: he is the Avatar (the only being capable of wielding all four elements: water, earth, fire and air).

Katara: A Waterbender, therefore able to control water. She is rather caring person, quite motherly, although she is easily angered

Sokka: Although unable to wield any elements, nor fight very well, he is able to make up with his intelligence and strategic planning. He is rather negative, quite comical yet serious and normally sarcastic nature.

Toph: An Earthbender, therefore able to wield Earth. She is a rather tom-boyish girl, who was suppressed during her childhood by her parent's worrying because of the fact she is blind, although they were unknowing she could see by sensing the vibrations in the earth and her excellent hearing. She is very skilled, because of secretly training behind her parents' back.

Antagonists:

Fire Nation Princess Azula: a Firebending Prodigy, rather complex, manipulative and cold you woman, who has managed to nearly kill Aang during her times combating him and once managed so if it weren't for the interference of Katara. Inside however Azula is a confused young girl, who has been unloved and neglected, abused by her father and been used as his pawn.

Fire Nation Prince Zuko: brother to Azula; he is a very complex character that is very angst and bitter, having a painful life; losing his mother, his face being mutilated with a scar across one eye by his father. He was banished for 'disgracing' himself and to have his honour and return home, he has to capture the Avatar,

Admiral Zhao: A powerful Firebender, he is fueled anger and a hunger for power. He is proud of his nation and enjoys fighting. He deems the Avatar as a threat and tries to hunt him down, for two reasons: to prevent Zuko (who he is disgusted by) from returning and to eliminate a threat.

Long-Feng: An Earthbender, he is a Grand Secretariat of Ba Sing Se. Although he is Earth Kingdom (a nation of which is an ally of the Avatar), he is enemies with the Avatar for upsetting his 'utopia' Ba Sing Se (the capital, isolated from the rest if the country by it's inner and outer walls) and trying to prevent his manipulative brainwashing and Dictatorship of the city.

Fire Lord Ozai: The objective villain, he is the father of Zuko and Azula; he is a manipulative and shady character, who uses even his own family members as pawns for his own gain. He seems to lack empathy, as he can never connect with other people and their feelings, like his daughter Azula. He is very powerful and fierce.

I have barely even scratched upon how wondrous and far greater than Naruto Avatar: Last Airbender is.

Answer 4

No, chakra and such are a common theme in anime. It was discussed in DragonBall twenty years before Naruto was around. Chakra is a principle of Asian culture, and is discussed in their religion, exercise, food, and many other parts of daily life.

With the addition to chakra being a common theme in animes much older than both shows, there are similarities with both the Main characters being goof balls during the shows debuts as well as both shows having giant talking animals, such as both having talking turtles, and the shows characters using elements, these are common themes. TV show writes receive inspiration from a myriad of sources. The writer and creator of Afro Samurai received a lot of inspiration from American rap songs and western culture. The Gundam franchise received inspiration from the Samurai style of combat, and Code Geass' Knightmare frames are named after Arthurian Knights such as the Lancelot, and The Gawain frames, two respective Knights of the Round Table.
