Many Naruto characters would fit in seamlessly into other anime universes. Some fans suggest the Hunter x Hunter world, citing similarities between the Nen and Chakra systems, while others propose the Dragon Ball universe as another ideal fit.
Recently, Solo Levelling’s popularity has also led fans to contemplate whether Naruto characters would fit into its world. The series world is filled with many godlike beings and while some characters from Naruto would thrive there, many would find it hard to really survive.
Here are the top ten Naruto characters who’d be perfect Hunters in Solo Levelling.

10 Naruto characters who'd be perfect Hunters
1) Sasuke
Sasuke would give Sung Jin-Woo serious competition if he were transported into the world of Solo Levelling. His strength and abilities will most likely put him at a National Level, and considering his Susanoo and Amaterasu, Sasuke will not just defeat the strongest monsters but will be able to square up against the monarchs.
Another thing that makes Sasuke an excellent hunter is his composure, he has a calm head that can make decisions in high-pressure situations.
2) Pain
Pain is another character who would be a perfect hunter in Sung Jin-Woo’s world. Apart from his high intellect and penchant for analysis, Pain is also blessed with one of the strongest Dojutsu in the Narutoverse, the Rinnegan.
With the Rinnegan, Pain becomes a National Level hunter, capable of besting the monarchs. He would also be capable of beating most hunters except for Sung Jin-Woo, a difficult opponent for anyone in anime.
3) Minato
Another character that would probably be an S-Rank Hunter would be Minato. He is a Naruto character who is amazing in close combat and is also lightning-quick. With his teleportation abilities and other abilities like the Rasengan, he would easily clear dungeons.
Minato is also highly intelligent and thrives in high-pressure situations. In Naruto Shippuden, he was able to save his child’s life and at the same time, divert a tail beast bomb that was headed to Konoha.
4) Kakashi
Kakashi has proven his worth as one of the strongest and most intelligent characters in Naruto, The copy ninja skills of deduction will serve him well as a character in the manwha.
If Kakashi were in the series, he would be a Fighter-class hunter due to his proficiency in hand-to-hand combat, or a Mage-class hunter, due to his long-range abilities. His long-range abilities like the Kamui and the purple lightning would shock many hunters and easily overpower them.
5) Gaara
Gaara is one of the Naruto characters that would work well as a mage-class hunter in Solo Levelling. What would make Gaara overpowered will be his excellent defense, Gaara was renowned for having one of the most excellent defenses in Naruto, a trait most mages do not possess.
His sand was able to block the extremely fast/undying flames of Susanoo and was sturdy enough to contain Deidara’s explosions.
6) Jiraiya
Jiraiya will be another Fighter-class hunter but with Mage-like abilities. Jiraiya was almost like a detective, with his ability to extract and analyze information based on surrounding evidence.
He was also gifted at fighting, and with Sage mode, he becomes a tank-fighter hybrid capable of defending and attacking at the same time. Jiraiya has the power level of a National Level Hunter and many of his skills will be difficult to guard against by hunters and monsters alike.
7) Itachi
Itachi is another ninja from the Narutoverse, capable of causing serious damage to the world created by Chugong. His Sword of Totsuka and Yata’s Mirror are some of the strongest weapons in Naruto and are perfect for offense and defense.
Yata’s mirror is capable of defending against any attack, be it physical or Ninjustu and the Sword of Totsuka is capable of sealing any user it touches. These two weapons will make it difficult for any anime character.
He can also use the Amaterasu and Yasaka Magatama, abilities that can target opponents from a distance. No character in Solo Levelling can guard against the Tsukyomi.
8) Kisame
Kisame is one of the most absurd Naruto characters in terms of power levels. He is called the tailless-tailed beast when he merges with Samehada and gets an increase in both speed and strength.
He also has unlimited healing as long as he holds Samehada, and he used the healing ability in his battle against Killer Bee. Due to Kisame’s prowess in hand-to-hand combat, he would be a Fighter-class hunter. He would also be an S-Rank Hunter, capable of defeating the most powerful hunters.
9) Might Guy
Once Might Guy unleashes his Gates, he becomes comparable to a monster and has abilities that can bend Space.
Might Guy will fit into the world of many anime, but the world created by Chugong will be turned into a mess by Konoha’s prideful green beast. Guy is an expert at hand-to-hand combat, and had no equal throughout the entire Naruto.
Though he is not as calm-headed and analytical as many other Naruto characters on this list, his fighting ability still makes up for it.
10) Obito
Obito is another Uchiha who would do serious damage to many hunters and monsters. He is adept at hand-to-hand combat, and he is capable of doing serious damage with his ninjutsu abilities. Obito’s Mangekyo Sharingan is also capable of teleporting objects; it also gives him intangibility.
These abilities make him capable of defeating many hunters and monsters.
Obito would easily be an S-Rank Hunter due to high power levels. He also has the physical strength of the top hunters due to the White Zetsu cells he carries.
Final Thoughts
Naruto characters are among the strongest in anime, with Naruto and Sasuke capable of dominating any universe through their mastery of hand-to-hand combat, Ninjutsu, and Dojutsu.
In the Solo Leveling world, while powerful figures like Sung Jin-Woo and Go Gunhee exist, even minor Naruto characters could pose a significant challenge. Many Naruto characters would also excel as hunters, given their skills and mindset for battling monsters.
