Characters
The Edge - Sasuke Uchiha. This guy's so edgy, he might've cut himself... on himself.

The Girl Who's Actually A Guy - Haku. With his mask on, it's pretty much a 50/50 split what his gender could be as his face is covered. But with it off, just about anyone who first lays eyes on him would be quick to say that he's a girl. But no.

The Lamb - Hinata Hyuga. The only one who truly liked Naruto throughout the entire series. Ever since she was a little baby, she had interest in him. Romantic interest. Eww.

The Mentor - Kakashi Hatake and Jiraiya. Kakashi was Naruto's first mentor, teaching him about the basics of the ninja world. Then Jiraiya taught Naruto more advanced topics like summoning and how to use Rasengan.

Misc.
Girl v Girl Rivalry - Sakura Haruno and Ino Yamanaka. They both competed for Sasuke's affection when they're young, yet both agreed that they, along with almost everyone else in the Leaf Village, hated Naruto for being a jinchuriki among other reasons.
