Member Review
Even though Nabari no Ou has some quite big similarities to Naruto and the plot may seem a bit lame, it's actually pretty awesome. For me it was really easy to look past the similarity to Naruto thanks to the characters difference in personalities and looks. For people who have grown tired of Naruto and looking for something similar without a hyperninja wearing orange, this is definitely worth a watch :D

Characters
Miharu Rokujo
The protagonist of series, Rokujo is a 16-year-old high school student. He holds Nabari's hijutsu, the Shinrabansho, in his body. He pretends to act indifferent to those around him in order to protect them from getting hurt, though he is not averse to acting in a rather innocent and cute way in order to get what he wants. He remembers little of his childhood, and had lost his parents at a young age. His only goal is to inherit his family's okonomiyaki store.


Thobari Kumohira Durandal
Rokujo's and Kouichi's 25-year-old teacher in the "front world". Born in Ireland, Kumohira is actually a ninja of the Banten village in the world of Nabari. He is entirely devoted to protecting Rokujo, and wants him to become the ruler of Nabari. He has an intense hatred of transport, such as trains and buses, and would not get on one until Rokujo manages to "persuade" him. He went to Japan because his grandfather was a "Japan otaku" and "ninja fanatic", who forced him to go to learn to become a ninja, and was unable to return home for ten years (partly due to his phobia of vehicles). In the anime, he is the temporary leader as the current leader is away, while in the manga, he is not just a stand-in, but actually has the power to arrange for a temporary leader.


Kouichi Aizawa
Rokujo's 14-year-old classmate who studies nindo under Kumohira. Though he normally has an energetic attitude when around others, he is serious and relentless when it comes to his ninja duties, and is apparently fascinated with death. It is later revealed that his love of death is a result of his own inability to die. His immortality is attributed to the holder of the Shinrabanshou during the Edo Period, who was a medical practitioner, experimenting with placing the wisdom of the Shinrabansho into animals, since humans usually died. There were only two survivors of the experiments, both of whom gained immortality as a result. Koichi's ultimate goal is to find a way to die, as well as ensure that "monsters like [himself] are never created again.


Raimei Shimizu
She is a 14-year-old guardian of the world of Nabari, and the head of the Shimizu clan. She is also a Fuma-nin("Wind Magic/Demon Ninja") who prefers fighting with a sword (named Kurogamon). over using ninjutsu, claiming to be a samurai. She has the tendency to mistake one person for another, or reveal information she means to keep to herself, when excited. Five years ago, her older brother, Raiko, annihilated their clan, and she has sworn to kill him in revenge.


Yoite
Rival of Miharu Rokujo. Uses "Kira", a kinjutsu (forbidden technique), that uses his own life force to strike opponents. He works for Kairoshuu.
