Most Useless Naruto Characters

The Top Ten
1 Kakashi Hatake Kakashi Hatake is a fictional character in the Naruto manga and anime series created by Masashi Kishimoto. In the story, Kakashi is the teacher of Team 7, consisting of the series' primary characters, Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha, and Sakura Haruno.

Kakashi is stupid?! Certainly not! He's just an absolutely mediocre, insipid kind of character - a poster boy for Gen Z who got nothing on their heads but being horny and cool. He comes from the Hatake clan. He was so stupid to murder Rin and was a jinx for being the reason why Obito lost his life over his uselessness in the team. He could've easily agreed to Obito's plan and saved their teammate first, then readjusted the plan. But he didn't because he's too cool for that. Obito died for their sake because that's what military soldiers signed up for.

Konoha's ideology lies in the form of manipulation: go into the battlefield and kill the enemy or get killed. Use your comrade if necessary to protect the very village who would betray and vilify your clan in the long run. Preach that ideology onto others so they can become heroes like shinobis do - but don't ever tell them they're just a mere ploy in the grand scheme of things for the benefit of the village. And so that's what he did. He got no balls to go against the very government who killed his friends. He got no voice to advocate their cause because he wasn't the one getting caught in the scheme to overthrow the Uchiha clan. He got his own little world where he stands as a hero, but is he?

He had this total mindset and nonchalant attitude like Minato did - both were really lame and shallow characters. He was just being portrayed as a sad, cool soldier who never faced such discrimination because he wasn't an Uchiha. His father's death had made him numb so he didn't go crazy like Obito did. Hey, at least Obito wasn't a hypocrite to express what he felt, unlike this caricature of a parody who's so immersed in his porn book! Hey, at least he got some hobbies! Yay! So he didn't end up being bad and seek vengeance on the very people who used and abused him, unlike the Uchiha clan who never forgives. But Kakashi is still good because he cries for his fallen comrade and prays their souls go to heaven. He... more

2 Sakura Haruno Sakura Haruno is the main heroine of the series "Naruto Shonen Jump!" and Naruto Shippuden. She is the only female ninja of Team Seven. Her family consists of her mother, Mebuki Haruno, and her father Kizashi Haruno. Her clan is likely not very well known around Konoha and up until "Boruto: Naruto Next Generations!" She wears the symbol of her clan on her back. ...read more.

Not only is she so painfully useless considering how much screen time she actually got, she actively started becoming a negative generator in Naruto. The whole world ended because she was too busy crying. Her only job was to mess up and kakashi and naruto and also sasuke have to clean up the mess she made and rescue her. No other character was this bad. Tenten hardly got any screentime so its unfair to put her number 1. Or any of the naruto females. Ino saved Sakura in the forest. Tenten defeated her clone. Hinata stood upto pein when sakura was crying and allowed naruto to win the war by inspiring him. They hardly appeared but accomplished as much as they could. Sakura got the benefit of training under a hokage and she was THAT BAD. Shamelessly screaming and whining and getting saved hundreds of times...worse being such a bad friend to all these people puts her number 1 easily

She is obsessed with Sasuke and it ends with her. There are very few achievements and even Ino was more useful than she, who is considered the strongest female character... Joke.

Awful and Useless, she just crying for sasuke when she have a problem, should be the worst character IN THE WORLD!

I'm here just for Sakura.

3 Sasuke Uchiha Sasuke Uchiha is a fictional character from the manga and anime franchise Naruto, created by Masashi Kishimoto.

He may be hated by many, but he's NOT useless at all.

Without it, the story would be MUCH better.

4 Tenten Tenten is one of the main supporting characters in the Naruto anime/manga series and the Boruto: Naruto Next Generations anime/manga series.

What do she did? She is totally wasted character

5 Karin Uzumaki

Healing? Chains? Orochimaru team? She didn't even made a great advice on her roles, never get what was the importance of her and is another wasted potential

6 Rin Nohara

Useless team medic who got nothingbon her head vut confession. Glad she was just a minor inconvenience Kakashi had taken care of. Guys like him are inspiring because he didn't let girls like her get in his way for being professional ? ? Eliminate those entitled Karens and that's something to be proud of. Even Sakura was being abandoned by her husband and guess what Sasuke still didn't liked her even when she married him. She's just like a beggar who had been given alms. Poor Sakura just like Rin, but at least Sakura did get the guy in the end right?

7 Choji Akimichi
8 Kaguya Ōtsutsuki Kaguya Otsutsuki is a fictional character from the manga and anime franchise Naruto, created by Masashi Kishimoto.
9 Suigetsu Hozuki

What is his role, he is just like another not well developed character

10 Kankuro Kankuro is a fictional character from the manga and anime franchise Naruto, created by Masashi Kishimoto.

The Newcomers

? Itachi Uchiha Itachi Uchiha is a fictional character in the Naruto manga and anime series created by Masashi Kishimoto.
The Contenders
11 Hinata Hyuga Hinata Hyuga is a fictional character in the anime and manga franchise Naruto, created by Masashi Kishimoto.

Come on, Kishimoto even said on that interview Hinata was a background character that only exists for the sole purpose of being around the guy she stalks. He even claimed all of his female characters were trash because he can't write them well without having a migraine lol

A pretty girl and that's all, she got nothing to do in Naruto or she didn't developed correctly

Literally everyone on this list (except maybe tenten and Karin) is more useful than her

12 Haku Yuki
13 Naruto Uzumaki Naruto Uzumaki is a fictional character in the anime and manga franchise Naruto, created by Masashi Kishimoto.
14 Kabuto Yakushi
15 Udon Ise
16 Minato Namikaze Minato Namikaze was the fourth Hokage of Village Hidden in the Leafs and the man responsible for sealing the nine-tailed demon fox inside Naruto Uzumaki when he was born. Doing so cost him his life, and before dying he asked that the villagers not see Naruto as the monster within him, instead wanting him to be viewed as a hero, a request ignored by the villagers. Naruto Shippuden reveals that Naruto is the son of Minato, born to Kushina Uzumaki. In his youth Minato, along with two other unknown Genin, was a student of Jiraiya. Prior to becoming Hokage, he was also the sensei of Kakashi Hatake, Obito Uchiha, and Rin Nohara. Minato is said to be one of the greatest ninja the Hidden Leaf has ever ...read more.

I hated his guts! He could've done something to his students. Despite their skills they were still kids who were outmatched by older shinobis. I couldn't really admire such person like Minato..sure he's an outstanding family man and a hardened assassin but certainly wasn't a good sensei. He's always late despite being dubbed as flee on sight shinobi. He's a tad too late to save someone's life especially his students'.

Where were you when your students need you the most. Busy amusing Kushina?
