Naruto/Ships

InoHina
InoHina is the femslash ship between Ino Yamanaka and Hinata Hiyuga.

KakaHana
KakaHana is the het ship between Kakashi Hatake and Hanare.

Canon
Kakashi and Hanare first met when Kakashi was still a member of Konoha's Anbu. He saved her when she was lost and crying. Years later, Anbu had trouble interrogating Hanare so they asked Kakashi for help. He later took her around the village while Naruto and the others spied on them. Naruto eventually fell on them which caused them to kiss by accident. He then admitted that he approved of their relationship which embarrassed both Kakashi and Hanare.

A ninja from Konoha was eventually captured and held hostage in exchange for Hanare. However, Kakashi refused to give her up. Hanare later ran away and tried to convince Kakashi to kill her but he refused. She later seemingly jumped to her death. Kakashi later told the others that she was an admirable ninja. However, Hanare actually survived and later walked to the location where she first met Kakashi.

Fanon
KakaHana is not that well known of a pairing in the Naruto fandom due to the fact that it only happened in filler episodes and that Hanare is not even a canon character. However, fans who watched these episodes tend to support this pairing as there chemistry was shown between them. KakaHana is mainly supported due to their accidental kiss and the fact that Kakashi refused to allow Hanare to be hurt.

Fanfiction of the two is normally with the two as a background pair, although they do have some of their own. Despite it's small presence many still ship the two. There is also some fan art of the two.

On AO3, it is the most written ship for Hanare.

KoteIzu
KoteIzu is the slash ship between Kotetsu Hagane and Izumo Kamizuki from the Naruto fandom.

Canon
Kotetsu and Izumo are childhood best friends and partners, they are rarely(if ever..) seen without the other and hangout during and out of work. They are the front gate guards of Konohagakure and Tsunade's assistants.

Compared to Izumo, who loves to work and takes his job as a guard seriously, Kotetsu is more carefree and prefers to run off on the job to eat syrup(his favorite food). Despite their different personalities, they work well together and have great teamwork, as evidenced in their battle against Kakuzu and Hidan.

When Kotetsu runs off again during work shift to eat syrup in the Jōunin Standby Station, Izumo crashes into the room angrily and drags his partner back to work.

During the Chūnin Exams, they disguise themselves as genins together to assess the strength of the participating genins. They are later seen together(as chūnin) watching the genins take their test to make sure no one's cheating and later observing the preliminary matches.

They appear together again, when they discover Sakura knocked out after Sasuke leaves Konoha and inform the fifth Hokage.

Kotetsu and Izumo are teamed with Shikamaru and Asuma to hunt down an Akatsuki duo. They manage to track them down and by working together, they manage to land a hit on Hidan. After the ensuing fight between the team and Akatsuki duo which results in Asuma's death, Kotetsu and Izumo are seen attending his funeral together.

In Naruto Shippuden episode 157, they face off against Kakuzu again and launch a surprise attack. They succeed in restraining Kakuzu with the help of Choji and some other nins and binding him.

Moments

Fanon

NaruFuu
NaruFuu is the het ship between Naruto Uzumaki and Fū.

Canon
Naruto and Fū met on the battlefield during the Fourth Shinobi World War after she had been resurrected from the dead. At first, she was traveling along with Tobi and others in pursuit of him and Killer Bee but Tobi removed the deceased Jinchuurikis' Chakra receivers that allowed them to regain control of themselves. Fū then introduced herself and her tailed beast Chōmei to Naruto. After the battle was over, Fū was able to return to the afterlife.

Filler
Both Naruto and Fū are Jinchuriki and were compared to each other long before they even met. Fū was taking the Chunin Exam while Naruto was off training with Jiraiya far away. She cared more about making friends than anything else and risked herself to save Gaara when someone was attempting to extract the Shukaku from him. After they were saved, Gaara mentioned that Fū reminds him of Naruto. Fū was later killed after the Chunin Exams.

Fanon
NaruFuu has a comparatively smaller amount of popularity in the Naruto fandom. It is mostly considered to be a crack ship due to the limited amount of interaction between Naruto and Fū. The popularity for this ship somewhat grew when more of Fū was shown during filler episodes and her personality while she was still alive was shown. Many fans feel that they are similar and would be good together. However, the fact that Fū is dead makes a future relationship between the two difficult at least while Naruto is alive.
 * It is confirmed that souls will be together in afterlife.
 * There are jutsus to resurrect the dead as long as their bodies exists, however Edo Tensei requires severe conditions as Madara Uchiha's case, and Kishō Tensei requires third person's soul in return. It is unknown if there have been any other jutsus, or such will be invented, or if there are any rooms for the above two to be improved into the stages of low or no risks.
 * Jinchurikis' bodies were preserved after their souls were freed mostly thanks to Killer Bee and Gyūki or by Naruto or by others.

It was revealed that Kishimoto was actually considering a reboot instead of sequel. After 6-months discussions, project for Boruto was launched.
 * Naruto Originally Eyed A Reboot Instead Of Its Boruto Sequel

Trivia

 * A part of chakra of Kushina Uzumaki, Naruto's mother, told her son that he should marry to a woman like her. This statement actually fits with Fū notably such as being a Jinchuriki, characteristic hair colour (Kushina's hair color is an important identity to her), wearing a hair clip, habit to add an unique word end, being from smaller nations. Some of these also correspond with Mito Uzumaki, the first Jinchuuriki of Kurama before Kushina and the wife of the First Hokage Hashirama Senju, the previous incarnation of Ashura Otsutsuki before Naruto.
 * Fūko Kazesō, an orichara featured on Volume #62 bears resemblances to both Naruto and Fū including her character and outfit and abilities. Her last name means to control winds. Some fans wondered that if the two Jinchurikis marry their child would be similar to her.
 * Fū and Chōmei have been noted to have affinity to winds and vortexes both in canon and games, just like Naruto. In the manga, when Naruto used Sage Art: Super Tailed Beast Rasenshuriken, Chōmei's type is a "vortex".

NaruLee
NaruLee is the slash ship between Naruto Uzumaki and Rock Lee from the Naruto fandom.

Canon
Naruto and Lee meet shortly before the Chunin Exams are supposed to start. Naruto calls Lee "Bushy Brows" and is irritated that he only shows interest in fighting Sasuke. Later, Naruto stands up against Neji after Hinata is defeated and Lee decides to let him fight his rival in his steed. Lee is later injured by Gaara and told that his ninja days are over. Naruto is angered by this.

Naruto later helps bring Tsunade back to the village and she is eventually able to heal Rock Lee. When Sasuke leaves the village, Lee notices Naruto give the "nice guy" pose to Sakura and is impressed. He initially cannot leave because he is still recovering but eventually joins the mission and helps Naruto against Kimimaro so that he can continue to chase Sasuke.

Naruto leaves for over two years to train and is eventually reunited with Rock Lee on a mission to save Gaara. Lee is impressed to see how much Naruto has grown. During the Fourth Shinobi World War, both are on the battlefield while Neji is killed. Both decide to not allow his sacrifice to be in vain and fight against the ten-tails. Naruto eventually gives Lee a Rasengan which allows him to use Ninjutsu for the first time. Lee is unsure about being able to do it but Naruto encourages him.

Fanon
NaruLee has a decent amount of popularity in the Naruto fandom. Fans tend to support it due to their similarity personalities and the fact that both were considered to be underdogs wishing to surpass their rival teammates. Naruto and Lee have more interaction in the super deformed spinoff Rock Lee's Springtime of Youth and fans of that tend to support the pairing. NaruLee tends to rival SasuNaru and NejiLee as well as other pairings involving the two.
