## Resource

What If Naruto Were A Ninken? Bear with me, I may be cooking. Naruto as a ninken is a pretty funny idea. The idea of Naruto being reborn as things started with him being reborn as himself. And though I’m not planning to have him keep his memories and powers, this all started when I was working on a script called “What if Naruto Were an Inuzuka”. What would happen if, instead of being an Inuzuka and having a Ninken, Naruto were just a Ninken itself? I felt like I could tell a story that was very interesting. So, for this story, let’s just turn Naruto into… say… a Shiba Inu. That kinda fits his personality, the breed has history in the series as a good companion, including with Indra and Asura, and further, Shiba Inu are very closely related to foxes, which is Naruto’s whole motif. So why don’t we try something like that?
