As one tunes in to a show like ‘Naruto’, the single most alluring factor to watch the show is the unprecedented action, which the show inevitably brings on our screens. The show is the epitome of Japanese anime, which has been entertaining us to our heart’s fill ever since its inception.
If you are one of those action-buffs, who get drawn wherever merciless kicks and blows are unleashed, then you are sure to be as much in awe of the antagonists on the show, as of the good guys. The list of antagonists on Naruto, and their peculiarities, are enough to keep anyone gripped to the show.
‘Taka’ is one of the major villainous groups on Naruto, and stands true to its name, which translates as ‘hawk’. The members of ‘Taka’ are all former subordinates of Orochimaru, with Sasuke Uchiha at their helm. When the group was formed, it was named ‘Hebi’, which stands for ‘snake’. At that point, the major intention of the group was to kill Itachi Uchiha, who was Sasuke’s brother, who was responsible for slaughtering the Uchiha clan.
The first member of ‘Taka’ is Suigetsu Hozuki, whose special ability is that he can turn himself into liquid form whenever desired. His major mission is to take the swords of the seven swordsmen of Kirigakure, and restore them.
The second member is Karin, who previously worked as Orochimaru’s assistant. She is capable of tracking individuals over long distances by using Chakra. As you watch the show, you will find yourself chuckling at her over-flirtatious nature, especially when she is in the presence of Sasuke.
You can tune in to the show online to see all the members of the ‘Taka’ group putting their extraordinary powers to use. The third and last member is Jugo, a mentally unstable prisoner, who created the cursed seals of Orochimaru, and believes that Sasuke is the legacy that his deceased friend, Kimimaro, has left behind.
