Naruto (2002–2007): Season 1, Episode 26 - Zettai hikken! Shi no mori chokuzen rupo! Konoha no gakkyû shinbun da kore! - full transcript

Here we are, here we are,
here we are!

"The Golden Time!

Starting tonight, "NARUTO" will be airing
every Wednesday, from 7:27 at night!

- Leader... Leader...
- For those who always watch "Naruto,"

and also for those who are watching
for the first time, please enjoy!

Now, the new opening theme song

"HARUKA KANATA (Far Beyond)"
Is about to start!

Listen here! Leader!

W-What is it Konohamaru?
I was just getting into it...

It's only 7 o'clock.

What?

You're 27 minutes early.

This is actually the time slot for
"The Prince of Tennis.

W-What?!

W-W-What are we going to do?

- I already did the greeting!
- It's not my problem...

I don't care any more!
I'm going to start "NARUTO"!

Hey, Sakura, Sasuke.

Naruto went ahead and
started the program.

Are you ready?

No, no! I'm still in the middle
of my facial!

What about the VTR for the main show?

It hasn't arrived here.

I guess it can't be helped.

I'll have to do some dancing...

Nah! I mean I'm going to
get the VTR.

In the meantime,
you guys will have to fill up the time.

What?!

I'm depending on you.
This is your mission.

Huh, a mission... all right!

All right, we'll do it!

Hey, Naruto!

This is all your fault for being so careless!
You have to learn your lesson!

Ouchh...

Go-Go!

Press down hard on the gas

That's right, there's no compromise

We'll slip through the night

At the final moment push hard

That's right, all the way to zero,

Until we wipe away the days

Gently open your heart

If you pull it close to you

It will reach you, without a doubt

It will come, closer

Now

We're speeding through life,
squeezing it for all of its worth

Our feet are tied

But we still keep going farther

Even if I take it back, and grasp it

If you're not the one

There will be no meaning

And so we'll go far off into the distance.

W-What?
Where is this place?!

Restricted Area
Do Not Enter

This is the site of the second exam,
the 44th Training Field...

Also known as... the Forest of Death.

Forest of... Death?

Huh?

Is that supposed to be... a rock?

Moreover, on top of the grass?

Hey, Konohamaru!
What is it that you want?!

Just what I expect from the man I respect!

Good job on figuring it out!

Hey! Too much gunpowder used!

With an adult sexiness!

I'm Moegi of the senior class
at Kunoichi preschool!

I love factoring!
Udon!

The most brilliant Ninja in the village!
Konohamaru!

The three of us together are
the Konohamaru Gang

Here we are!

What's going on you guys?

Hey, I'm about to take the
second exam for the Chunin Exam.

I have no time to be playing
around with you guys!

We didn't come to play around!

That's right!
We came here for an interview!

That's right...

Interview?

Yeah, we were put in charge to write
the feature article for the "Chunin Exam,"

for the academy's class newspaper.

So that's why we came to
interview you, leader...

Please cooperate with us.

Please.

But...

Hey, over there!

What are you doing?!

Konohamaru here is asking about
an interview for the class newspaper...

Oh, I forgot that Lord Hokage was
mentioning something like that.

Hey, hey...

All right, take a 10 minute break
starting now!

For those who will be interviewed,
resign yourselves and be courteous.

Hey, hey... What's this all about?

Big brother Naruto!
I'm depending on you.

All right!

In that case, I'll just show you
how attractive I am!

Special Report.
Live from the Forest of Death!

Chapter of Character Introduction

Please introduce yourself.

Okay!

My name is Naruto Uzumaki!

A Ninja from Village Hidden
in the Leaves!

My hobby is to play pranks,
and I love ramen noodles,

I've just become a Genin but...

My dream is big, to become a Hokage!

And I'm going to surpass all
the Hokage from the past,

and make everybody in the town
acknowledge my existence.

I've been called a failure and such,
but I graduated splendidly and,

as a member of Group Seven
led by Kakashi Sensei,

I am dealing with
difficult missions every day!

Distance from the target?

5 meters.

I'm ready anytime.

In Group Seven, there is also
Sasuke and Sakura.

Since I'm really the only one that shows
great success,

you don't worry about the other two.

I got you!

Don't say such things.
Introduce them properly!

Is the target correct?

I know, I know.

The target confirmed.

For example, this guy's name is
Sasuke Uchiha

and he's a pretentious guy.

I heard that he's one of the last
remaining of the famous Uchiha clan,

but he really is a pitiful guy, like this...

Oh, this was when I transformed, but...

as long as you understand the greatness
of my Ninja skills that's all that matters.

Oh, and this is Sakura Haruno
who is in love with me.

You know, the more she denies it,
the more I'm convinced it's true.

She hardly tells me how
she really feels about me but,

her shyness makes her even cuter!

Is that true?

It really is true, true.

Who's in love with Naruto?!
Cha!

It was a lie after all!

I'm sorry...

Well, putting that aside,
three of us formed a team

and got through a bunch
of dangerous missions together.

Hey you...

What?

Oh, Missus!

I've gotten rid of all the weeds!

What?
What's wrong?

Those... those aren't weeds...

Huh?

Those are herbs I grew in my garden!

Ouch, ouch, ouch!

Somebody! Help...!

No!

Free Fall!

You idiot.

Trap Field
Do Not Enter
Don't go over there!

Hey!
Please stop!

That fool...

Geez... All because he
stubbornly chose that big dog.

This is a dangerous mission?

It only looks like you're being clumsy, Naruto.

Yikes!

Well, there were times like that too.

Do it over.

Transform!

Oh, this was when I defeated
the Old Man Hokage

This isn't going to make a good article.

Fine, then you show me how to do it.

Fine! My name is Konohamaru...

The grandson of the
town's chief Hokage.

Grandfather is the most important figure
in the Leaf Village

and is the third Hokage.

Those who succeed the Hokage name
is the top Ninja of the village.

Especially the 4th Hokage is a great hero
who protected the village

from the demon fox!

Hey, hey, hey wait!

You're only talking about other people!

I was just about to start on myself!

Besides, Bro, you talk too much
about yourself!

Of course, I am the star of the article,
other people don't matter!

You're right, Naruto...

Of course, you're going to forget
about me

when you graduate from the academy.

But you can introduce me for a bit...

Oh, yes, yes...

He is the first person in the town
who acknowledged me, Iruka Sensei...

He's a really nice person,

he always treats me to
ramen noodles at Ichiraku.

Am I just a nice person because
I treat you to ramen noodles?

Oh no... well... that's...

Don't laugh it off!

Big brother, next up,
I'm depending on you!

Oh, you're right!

Then, I guess I could talk
about Sasuke's stories of failures...

I've already heard that one.
Get more serious!

That Naruto...!

I bet he's just making up
stuff as he pleases...

Humph!

Who cares...

This is good looking Kakashi.

How is the situation over there?

This is cute Sakura.

Naruto is somehow managing
to fill up the time.

More importantly, how is it over there?

Are we going to make it in time?

We'll be able to deliver by the
end of the commercial break, I think.

Oh and don't forget to tell
the viewers about the present.

Roger that.

Kakashi Sensei...
Kakashi Sensei, please respond.

I wonder what happened?

He said that he'd be back by
the time the commercial ended.

It can't be helped.
Sakura, you have to continue.

What, me?!

Sakura do your best!

Why are you there?!

Well, it can't be helped,
I guess I'll have to do it.

Chapter of Ninja Art

Well, now we'll have Sakura Haruno,

who is my senior as a Kunoichi,
teach us about Ninja Art.

Yes, I am the beautiful Kunoichi,
Sakura Haruno.

Beautiful?

What, you have any complaints?

Oh, no...

Transform!

Well first, Naruto's Ninjutsu...

Sexy Jutsu,

Shadow Clone Jutsu!

Shadow Clone Jutsu.

Transform!

Transform!
Transform!

Transform!
Transform!

Harem Jutsu...

I call it, "Harem Jutsu"!

And something like this.

Hey!

It's his fault that he's late!

Dropping the blackboard eraser...

Next is the number one rookie, Sasuke,

who graduated as
the top student at the academy.

You won't get me by attacking
straight on.

The most popular one in class, he can
also fight Kakashi Sensei as an equal.

Sasuke is awesome!

Your Sasuke introduction
is taking too long.

Naruto, you're so noisy.

Stay quiet.

Horse!

Tiger!

Fire Style: Fire Ball Jutsu!

What?!

That's not a Jutsu Genin can use...

He couldn't have enough Chakra!

Demon Wind Shuriken
Windmill of Shadows.

Shuriken won't work on me.

I'll do it.

C-Could that be...?

Sharingan!

Is that, the Sharingan...?

If this is the same Kekkei Genkai
as Kakashi Sensei's...

he can read Bushy Brow's Jutsu!

Genjutsu or Ninjutsu...
it's some kind of magic either way.

I'll reveal that!

Although you have seen Sasuke
using powerful Jutsu like

Fire Style: Fire Ball Jutsu,
Demon Wind Shuriken,

Windmill Shadow, and Sharingan,

the greatest of all is...

the sharp look of his eyes!

Any girl who has been stared
at with those eyes,

will fall in love with him!

Sasuke!
Look this way!

You're... annoying.

Well, that cold behavior is also
another attractive quality of Sasuke...

Next is our teacher,
Kakashi Hatake Sensei,

also known as
the Copy Ninja Kakashi.

He uses the Sharingan in his eye
to assess the enemy's technique

and copy over
a thousand Jutsu techniques.

But he's always late to meet people,
and whenever he has any time

he always reads this questionable book
called Make Out Paradise,

and he always looks like he
doesn't really care about things...

Leaf Village Secret Finger Jutsu:

A Thousand Years of Death!

And the biggest mystery of all
is his face hidden under that mask!

I wonder what he really looks like...

Ninja Art, Summoning
Earth Style: Fanged Pursuit Jutsu!

If you can't use your eyes or ears,
simply use your nose.

That's what happens when
you're closing your eyes in the midst of fog.

This is the Summoning Jutsu
specialized for pursuit.

On top of all that, why does he
have the Sharingan in his left eye

that is only passed on in the Uchiha clan?

One mystery after another when
it comes to this person,

so many things that I don't understand...

I should ask him next time
I have the chance.

Lightning Blade!

What the...?!

His hand is...
visibly overflowing with Chakra!

You are too dangerous.

Water Prison Jutsu.

Oh no!

Secret Jutsu.

Crystal Ice Mirrors!

Next up are the Ninjutsu of
the other Ninjas besides us.

There's such a diverse collection of
Ninjutsu that I have no time to explain all...

Chapter of Rivals

Please, Sasuke,
whom I feel is like my future self,

take care of the next part.

Sure. After all, I have to be the one
to do something about it.

I knew that from the beginning.

Don't try so hard to look cool.

Sasuke, the snob.

Don't interfere.

Stay out of it, loser.

Annoying.

Shut up!

I hate the fact that only you stand out.

Nobody strong around you
shows any interest in you.

What the...?!

Just watch this.

Hey!

You there...
What's your name?

I'm Gaara of the desert.
I have an interest in you as well...

What's your name?

Sasuke Uchiha.

Hey, you there.
Identify yourself.

Dang it!
Again? It's always about Sasuke!

When asking someone his name,
give your own name first.

You, with the unpleasant look.

Wait a minute!

Why don't you fight with me here now?

I AM going to take out the Bushy Brow.
Believe it!

The one I want to fight isn't you...
It's Uchiha.

Everybody says Sasuke, Sasuke!
It's annoying!

It's true!

Nobody thinks that you're
the main character leader!

That's not true, they're all just blind!

Huh... As usual you're just about
the talk and not the walk.

That's not true!

Leaf Whirlwind!

See, you are just about the talk.

Uhh... even Sakura is picking on me.

The students who gathered for
this Chunin Exam are all skilled,

and are the cream of the crop...

Shikamaru Nara, Choji Akimichi,
Ino Yamanaka,

Hinata Hyuga, Kiba Inuzuka & Akamaru,
and Shino Aburame...

You won't never be able to win
with the way you have been fighting.

You must understand that, right?

Y-Yeah! Of course!

You, too. Be careful not to let
your guard down

so you won't be defeated
by some lame guy!

Huh! Of course!

That's right...

We passed the first stage
of the Chunin Exam and

are heading to the location
of the second stage...

No matter what kind of adversity
may lie ahead,

we will not be afraid!

And we will pass the exam
to become a Chunin!

Because we... we...

have the greatest teamwork
that was formed by a strong bond!

Okay! Let's go!

Thank you so much for cooperating
with the interview!

- Thank you...
- Leader!

Do your best!

Yeah leave it to me!

- Bye!
- See you!

- Do your best!
- Good luck!

Hey, can you hear it?

The clear, blue sky goes on and on

The ocean spans limitlessly

Please keep that smile on your face forever

Or else I'll cry

You won't have to search around you

It's all ok now.

Everyone is inside
this hand

when you want to cry, and you want to run away

When you forget what happiness is

Just sing.

Light is born, and darkness was born

The two are one

Harmonia, feel the telepathy

Hey, can you hear it?

The 44th Training Field,
also known as the Forest of Death.

From here on it's a serious battle
between the Ninjas,

anything could happen!

It's going down in earnest now!

This is getting interesting!

A life risking survival game in the forest!

I will survive without fail!

Next time: "The Chunin Exam Stage 2:
The Forest of Death!

As for me, I'm going to kick butt again!
