Raruto

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.

Describe Raruto here.

Raruto is a Fan-Made Comic Book/Web Comic made by Jesulink which parodies the series Naruto, telling the story of an awkward kid under the name Raruto. The series and main character name are a pun from mixing "Raro" (Spanish for "weird") and "Naruto". With an art-style that combines elements from South Park, Crayon Shin-chan and Naruto, it's A LOT Better Than It Sounds.

Among interesting stuff made by the author and the comic fans, there is an animated version of Raruto (with lower quality than the comics), and parodies of several Naruto's anime openings with gag subs which must be seen.

The series has also spawned a Naruto Shippuden parody, called "Raruto Sisepuede" (lit: "Raruto Yes We Can!").

Raruto has gained a sort of Hatedom from the MUGEN comunnity, because some questionable-quality characters were coded into that game. Few people on the Mugen community seem to know nor care that the original material has little to do with their Mugen counterpart.

The comic can be bought, but a free online upload has been made. The Spanish version can found here, while an English translation can be downloaded here.

The intro's parodies (with subtitles) can be seen:

Tropes used in Raruto include:


  • Punny Name: all the character's names are of this type, fitting for a parody
