Naruto, Episode 17: White Past: Hidden Ambition

Summary of Bull's Role in the Episode

Bull is another of Kakashi's ninken (ninja dogs) summoned through the Kuchiyose no Jutsu (Summoning Jutsu) during the confrontation between Kakashi and Zabuza. Bull's primary role is to assist in restraining Zabuza, playing a key part in the immobilization strategy by biting into Zabuza’s left shoulder, alongside several other ninken, including Guruko, Bisuke, and Akino. These dogs’ coordinated efforts help disrupt Zabuza’s ability to fight back and use his weapons, especially since Kakashi’s blood has been transferred to Zabuza’s weapons, which the dogs use to track him.

Although Bull plays a supporting role and helps contribute to Zabuza’s immobilization, his involvement is part of a larger group action. The impact of Bull individually is not emphasized, as his role is shared with several other dogs, and Kakashi’s strategic actions are the primary focus in resolving the battle.

Rating of Bull's Impact: 4.0/10

Bull’s impact, while important to the tactical success of the pursuit strategy, does not stand out as much as other key moments in the episode. His action is a necessary part of a larger team effort, and his involvement ensures Zabuza’s defeat by neutralizing his mobility. Therefore, Bull's impact is rated at 6.0/10, reflecting his functional but secondary role compared to more prominent moments like Kakashi’s Raikiri or Zabuza’s dramatic defeat.

Naruto, Episode 18: The Weapons Known as Shinobi

Bull's Role in the Episode

In this episode, Bull is one of Kakashi's ninja dogs, part of the group of canine allies summoned to assist him during the fight against Zabuza and Haku. Like the other dogs—Akino, Bisuke, Pakkun, and Shiba—Bull plays a supportive role in the battle by helping Kakashi track and keep an eye on the enemy’s movements. They help maintain awareness in the thick fog that clouds the battlefield.

However, just like the other dogs, Bull disappears in a puff of smoke when struck by senbon, which highlights the vulnerability of the ninja dogs in the heat of battle despite their assistance.

Impact Rating: 3.0/10.0

Bull's role, like the other ninja dogs, is minimal in terms of direct combat impact. His purpose is largely situational support, providing reconnaissance and distractions when needed. While he plays a part in assisting Kakashi, his contribution does not significantly change the course of the battle or the episode's outcome. Therefore, his overall impact remains modest at 3.5.
