Ah yes, the anbu. Specialists in stealth, assassinations and clandestine operations. As opposed to ninja, who are specialists in stealth, assassinations, and clandestine operations.

One of my favourite moments in Naruto is when the elders explain why Hiruzen' era was one of unprecedented peace. Explaining that Danzo was in the background killing anyone who got close to Konoha. It's a realism that speaks true to what the purpose of a ninja village would be.

[@codafett]

Danzo also caused a whole lot of unnecessary troubles and VERY powerful ticking time bombs that eventually backfired like pain, indirectly Sasuke and Kabuto Which is also very true of the kind of brutes who only swear by questionable utilitarianism

I wish we got to see the ANBU live up to their reputation more, especially in the anime. There were a couple times they were shown being badass, but for the most part they were there just to lose, and make whatever threat more impressive because they defeated ANBU, except it became so repetitive that it didn’t mean anything, and a villain isn’t more threatening because they beat opponents that are really easy to beat. They even had the Konaha 12 (11?)defeat the ANBU, ninja who a fairly young and less experienced than the elite black ops are supposed to be. ANBU is cool in reputation and appearance, but unless they’re Kakashi, Yamato, or Itachi , they get nerfed pretty hard a lot of the time

[@MMAli-rq8kd]

Absolutely right! Kinda like *Vision in the MCU;* the most decent, most intelligent, most strong character that always has to be nerfed or killed or both !

Come to think of it, jiraiya's body of work is everything the anbu does. Jiraiya: exclusively converse about Akatsuki with Tsunade Anbu: directly under the hokage Jiraiya:travels anywhere as a novelist Anbu: infiltrates other countries Jiraiya: Odd jutsus such as being a shadow(spy) frog stomach(kidnap) telescope hand(survey) Anbu: specialized unit with specific jutsus

[@alphablob7885]

Jiraiya and itachi had the same mission: Jiraiya said that he has a mole in the Akatsuki who most likely is itachi(anbu).Itachi before killing the Uchiha clan said to hiruzen that he will join akutsuki and spy on them, Then it is possible that jiraiya being an anbu is tasked by the 4th to work with itachi. After the death of hiruzen they rendezvoud to konoha. That girl who is under Itachi's gensutsu? She was handing out info and instructions to jiraiya. At the moment that they saw eye to eye, itachi even called jiraiya "master".( Why would itachi attempt to kindap Naruto when 9 tails should be the last to be sealed inside the gedo statue?)
