Did anybody else notice how at the beginning of the series(1rst chapter) when naruto steals the "scroll of forbidden jutsu" and learns Kage buushin everybody freaks out. But later in the series everybody from the hokage to jounins to genin to foreign ninja's all see him use kage buushin's and not really even care, and sometimes be proud of it?

"Yea so that kid with the demon sealed in him went and learned the moves in that forbidden scroll, honey. Oh and I forgot the milk on the way home from work again."

well i think that wasnt the only move in the scroll, just one he picked first to learn. I think everyone freaked out because there were other moves in there that could have been much worse.

nobody would care. their genins are super powered even from the beginning. An Uchiha with a chunin level katon jutsu at age 8. a branch house member Hyuuga who uses signature moves using only observation and academy training. An ordinary genin with no chakra molding skills able to open 5 celestial gates. whats so special about a 12 going on 13 genin having a jounin level jutsu?

He has quite the point.

especially when you look at the jounin's record when they were younger, kakashi, itachi, all somehow manage to reach high ranks around or before hitting the age of 10...what the hell eh...

by the way, whatever happened to naruto's parents? there really hasn't been any mention of them at all if i remembered right, they just kept saying he doesn't have any and doesn't say why he doesn't have any...it's like this kid was a summon creature rather than a normal child...now that's a plothole...

Yes it's true, how many other ninjas are able to use kage buushin ? I can't remeber more than two, so this is something special. But in the world of Naruto strength is everyhting and it doesn't matter how you obtained it. As long as you can beat your opponents and finish missions nobody cares where yout got it from.

what I want to know is where is Naruto's mother. Because the lack of any mention of her ever, it sorta makes me believe Naruto might really not be a human but a type of summon created when the 9 tails was sealed. Although they did say he was sealed in a baby during that time so it seems he had to have a mother. Just, there hasnt been one mention of anything about it ever, sorta weird I think.

The talk around some site's is he's the son of the based on how their described to be so similar by jiraya, their hair, and how he happened to be the guy who actually sealed the 9 tails. I haven't heard ay theories about a mom tho

I believe his das is the same person daed mentioned

but about his mom...well in the Konoha sport festival there's some woman besides the person who I think is Narutos dad but you can't really see the details 'cause they're quite far away.

maybe we know someday, who knows what are the plans of Kishimoto
