naruto is similar to the anime SLAM DUNK!
Naruto would be similar to Sakuragi, a newbie with a talent and likes a girl named Haruko, and Haruko would be similar to Sakura because they both like a person, and in Haruko's case, she is crazy about a boy named Rukawa, who is similar to Sasuke (cool, and expert, genius). Naruto and Sasuke are rivals just like Rukawa and Sakuragi.
