Your result

Naruto Uzumaki

Loud, stubborn and impossible to keep down.

  • Determined
  • Warm
  • Never gives up

You don't quit. People have told you that you can't do something and you took it as a schedule. You're noisy, you act before you think, and you have a way of turning people who didn't like you into friends, mostly by refusing to give up on them either.

You know what it is to feel left out, and that's why you make room for everyone. The thing to learn is patience. You don't have to do it all alone or all today.

Your result

Sasuke Uchiha

Gifted, driven and guarded.

  • Focused
  • Independent
  • Intense

You set a goal and everything else falls away. You're talented and you know it, you hold yourself to a brutal standard, and you would rather struggle alone than ask anyone for help. People find you hard to read, which suits you fine.

The risk is that the goal eats everything, friends included. The people who keep reaching out to you aren't a distraction from your path. Let one or two of them walk it with you.

Your result

Sakura Haruno

Soft-hearted with a serious right hook.

  • Caring
  • Hot-tempered
  • Works for it

You feel things strongly and you don't hide them. You'll cry at the sad part, shout when someone is being an idiot, and then quietly be the one who patches everybody up. You weren't handed your strength. You decided you were tired of being left behind and went and earned it.

You measure yourself against other people too much. You've come further than you give yourself credit for, and the team would not last a week without you.

Your result

Kakashi Hatake

Relaxed on the outside, the best in the room.

  • Calm
  • Clever
  • Loyal to the team

You're the laid-back one who turns out to be alarmingly capable. You're late, you'd rather be reading, and you play down what you can do. But when it counts you're focused, quick and ten moves ahead. You believe the people beside you matter more than the mission, and you'd break a rule to prove it.

You keep your own history to yourself. You look after everyone else so well that nobody thinks to check on you. Let them.

Your result

Shikamaru Nara

Would rather nap, will out-think you anyway.

  • Strategic
  • Laid-back
  • Reliable when it counts

You're smarter than nearly everyone you meet and you'd prefer nobody made a fuss about it. Effort is a drag. Given the choice you'd watch clouds all afternoon. But put you in a real problem and you'll calmly work out the answer while everyone else is still panicking.

You're a better leader than you want to be, because you care more than you admit. Someday you'll have to stop calling everything troublesome. Today is probably not that day.

Your result

Hinata Hyuga

Quiet courage that never runs out.

  • Gentle
  • Brave
  • Devoted

You're shy and you doubt yourself more than you should. You're also far tougher than you look. You keep working when nobody is watching, you notice what other people need, and when someone you love is in danger you step forward even though your knees are shaking.

That's what courage actually is. You don't need to be loud to matter. The people who have really seen you already know what you're made of.

Which Naruto characters are in this quiz?

There are hundreds of named characters in Naruto, so I picked six that fans tend to see themselves in: Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, Kakashi, Shikamaru and Hinata. Between them they cover most of the personalities in the Hidden Leaf: the one who never gives up, the lone genius, the one with the big heart and short fuse, the cool teacher, the lazy strategist and the shy one with hidden steel.

Keeping it to six also keeps the quiz fair. With nine questions, every character has exactly six answers that lead to them.

How the Naruto personality quiz works

Each question describes a situation a shinobi might face, or just an ordinary day off. Pick the answer closest to what you’d honestly do. Every answer adds a point to one character and the one with the most points is your match. If two tie, the quiz shows the first of them, so take it again and change the answers you weren’t sure about to see who you were close to.

Your answers stay in your browser. Nothing is saved and you don’t need an account.

Why isn’t my favorite character here?

Probably because I ran out of room. Itachi, Gaara, Rock Lee, Jiraiya and Tsunade all deserve a result, and a longer version with more characters is on my list. For now, the result you get tells you which of the main group you’re most like, and that isn’t always the character you like best. Plenty of Sasuke fans turn out to be Shikamaru.

Is this quiz official?

No. It’s a fan quiz. AuraQuizzes isn’t affiliated with Masashi Kishimoto, Shueisha or the studios behind the anime. I wrote it for people who grew up watching the show and still argue about who the best character is.
