Dad : why r yr eyes red Me : I smoked weed Dad: dont lie u watched Lee story again

ROCK LEE is not a character , he is a LESSON.

“ All efforts are useless ….. if you dont belive in yourself.” hits hard

Might Guy was the greatest thing to happen to Rock Lee, 99.99% people can't do it alone, sometimes you just need somebody to believe in you, somebody to tell you that you can do it even when a million people says you can't.

This is where everyone who has felt like a loser cried

"If you didn't have a father like Gai sensei, be a father like Gai sensei"

Old Naruto used to know how to really make anyone tear up and cry

watched this almost daily when applying for uni exams, i got in. 5 years later watching it to land my first job.

Every “loser” just needed a good mentor

As a man, I'm not ashamed to say this made me cry.

"Hardwork can never surpass true genius"........"Lee, you are a genius of hardwork"

This hits different when you once had suicidal thoughts and didn't like the cards life has given you

I could write a thesis on why Naruto and other shonen anime/manga is great for male childhood development. This here is a clear example why.

“You’re right, all the effort is pointless. If you don’t believe in yourself.” The weight of these words are heavy asf.

maturity is when you realise Rock lee is real motivation

"Sometimes I feel like the whole thing is pointless... like I am a loser and I will always be a loser." That part gets me everytime. 😢

He’ll always be my FAV!💪🏾😭

Lee made me cry at 13, now at 27 it still does. Naruto is a master piece.

Rock lee didn't get enough screen time and I wish he remained one of the ultimate power houses in the show. He's what naruto is all about. Working hard and never giving up.

Gai breaking into tears at the end always gets me. Especially "Lee...What have I done?" You've given him hope, man! You did nothing wrong! 😭

“He’s outcold. Nothing keeping him up but shear willpower” Man that’s deep.

watching this gives me strength

My dad still can't believe how Naruto has taught me more life lessons than my teachers 😂

“If the mind is willing, the flesh could go on and on without many things” - Sun Tzu

- Bruce Lee -“I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.”

I’m sure everyone felt like Rock Lee at one point

Currently struggling with studies and work. May rock Lee give me the strength and motivation I need

7:11 to 8:00 is soo damn inspirational, such a real human reaction.

It's crazy how someone who doesn't even exist can give me so much motivation

Thats what most people dont get, hardwork is a form of genius too.

Bro, am 22 now and this still makes me cry

You ever quietly broke down during a workout? Not because you were tired but because you feel like you weren't good enough to reach your goals. Rock Lee is a great example to follow. Never give up

Rock lee has to be in everyone’s top 5 naruto character

"Nothing keeping him up but sheer willpower"-that gave me chills

Rock Lee trained so hard and Sasuke just copied his taijutsu😥😟 Rock lee deserves a lot

The story of Rock Lee is a sad one...because at the end of the day the answer was no. He became a very decent Ninja, but he never beat those who were considered truely talented, not Sasuke, nor Gaara, Nor Naruto. He is so human and so relatable and he teaches us an important lesson, sometimes all the practice in the world is simply not enough to beat those who were "chosen". However Lee's achievements are immeasurable because right behind them, the closest to those stars that were so so unnaturally high was Rock Lee and Rock Lee alone. He might never have beaten them but he was sure as hell the closest to them. Rock Lee, a true inspiration, a true man, and while only an animation and drawing he's also one of the most compelling humans there are.

"sometimes it seems the whole thing is pointless, like I am a loser, and I will always be a loser" dat feels though 😢😫

Lee, the one who should have been the protagonist of Naruto because he exemplifies hard work beats talent message of the show.

Listing to this everyday to remind myself to not give up,

That was my favorite moment in the entire series. “Make me proud! Be all that you can be!”- Might Guy

Guy: “You Know lee you are a lot alike you and I....” Lee: “You mean the eyebrows?”

Its ironic that Rock Lee not being the main character, actually keeps the advice the show is trying to give all along. While Naruto and Sasuke kept getting power ups Lee was the only character who worked hard despite having no real talents.

i remember being 12 years old, I was so nervous to talk to anyone at my new school. I saw my older brother watching a show which turned out to be naruto. I started it that night after watching it with my brother, when i got to meet rock lee it really made me hooked on this show. I'm 21 now thriving, I wish I could tell my younger self it's all gonna be good. thank you rock lee

Using this as motivation to join the marines. I’ve always quit when things get hard and ontop of that I have such a severe learning disability. I have to work my ass off to learn and comprehend pretty much anything while everyone else just absorbs it like a sponge. Must be nice being born with talent, not everyone is so fortunate. This reminds me to keep moving forward, because everyone else may be much smarter than me, stronger, faster. But the one good thing about my learning disability, is I’ve developed the one thing they don’t have. Perseverance. Most others are so arrogant and cocky with their talent and skill, they grasp everything so easily that they’ll never understand what real determination and perseverance is like. Because they’ve never been in that situation, and if they have it’s not to the extent people like me and rock lee have. Now I’ve got to start at square one and apply that to physical training which is why I watch this. I’m trying to learn all the ranks and general orders before going in, while in I’ll only have less than 3 months to learn it all. It’ll mean so much to me if I can make it through their boot camp. And then I can tell myself I’m not as dumb or weak as I thought I was, I just made it through one of the hardest training programs in the world.

Might Guy: “I was a loser too once” Lmfao he roasted rock lee and motivated him at the same time.

"If I cant do 1000 pushups I have to do 2000 punches" Lee: Does 999 pushups and gives up so he HAS to do the punches lol

Everyone keeps saying you need a mentor like Guy, but did you ever stop to wonder who Guy had to help him? Sometimes in life, the only way is believing yourself even when no one else does. What makes a mentor great is the fact that they had little-to-no help through their own difficult times, but they believed in themselves and pushed forward. That's why they believe (and prove) that if THEY could do it without anyone's help, then anyone can do it with THEIR help. It's a blessing to have a mentor like Guy, who believes in you, but real strength is in being like him. Believe in yourself. Don't wish for someone like Guy. Be him. And then who knows, sometime in the future, someone sees themselves in you and decides to be your "mentor".

Perfect example of “only you can stop you” you gotta fight yourself everyday

Iruka taught me... not to judge people by their reputations but by their personalities. Haku taught me... that there is no good or evil when you're protecting the ones you love. Neji taught me... that if you leave your pride behind you can change your destiny. Rock Lee taught me... that hard work beats talent. Kakashi taught me... that teamwork and friendship stand above the rules. Hinata taught me... that love is worth fighting for. Sai taught me... that a life without feeling isn't worthwhile. Sakura taught me... that weakness is a choice, not an excuse. Gaara taught me... how painful loneliness can be and how love can change someone. Nagato taught me... that revenge and hatred only lead to more revenge and hatred. Asuma taught me... how important it is to take care of the next generation. Shikamaru taught me... that sometimes you even have to do the things that bother you the most. Might Gai taught me... that it doesn't matter what other people say about you. Minato and kushina taught me... that parent's love beat all else. Sarutobi taught me... that problems should be solved with kindness rather than with violence. Sasuke taught me... that you should not only dream about things but actually achieve them. Itachi taught me that... sometimes you have to make sacrifices for the greater good. Tsunade taught me... to never abandon the living for the dead. Jiraya taught me... that you must never give up your faith in humanity and your hope of peace. Obito taught me... that it is never too late to revert to the right way. Madara taught me... that peace is no peace without freedom. And Naruto... well, we all know that Naruto taught us a lot. but the most important thing is: no matter what happens in your life... NEVER GIVE UP !!! BELIEVE IT!

"I, Madara, declares you strongest."

Just recently diagnosed with osteoarthritis in my knees and it stripped my hopes for playing football or doing MMA but I promise I'll never back down or give up I'll thrive

This show built me up from nothing and its held me up from crumbling through abuse, fathers suicide, family abonnement, depression, ptsd, anxeity, covid, and now crohn's disease! Nothing can kill me because i know what I believe in and Naruto is just apart of my soul now

Madis Mark Rock Lee's story is the ONE that inspired me the most to turn out from the sad nerd who could not even win one competition in his life to the Programming Genius (Hard Worker) who never had any talent and won Bournemouth's IT Olympics a College and then pursued University where I built an application with password encryption! This anime is what made me follow my dream of working and one day becoming a CEO for one of Google's companies and one day I WILL make it! I find myself in Rock Lee, the untalented loser who climbed up from the very bottom where losing was on a daily basis and now competes on equal footing with Ingenious IT programmers around UK. So I thank Rock Lee, as well as Naruto, for transforming me into the person I am today! Arigato!!! :)

From elementary through high school I was always told that since I have a learning disability, I can’t do most things that kids and regular and honor classes can do. I’ve always been taken lightly in sports And any competitions. Finally I thought, enough was enough. I grew tired of people putting me down because of what the school labeled me as. Starting freshman year of high school I study I worked hard after school I did as much homework as I could I fought the school system to put me in honors classes for 5 years and still didn’t give me what I deserved! By graduation they were passing out rewards. I have one first and second Greatest of all boys sports in my school! I ended with a 3.9 GPA and The highest record of a GPA of kid with a Disability is 3.5, so I feel like I already exceeded my expectations. When I walked up on the stage with all those rewards. Everybody looked at me with shock, it was at that moment when everybody wanted to finally be my friend and apologize for the things I have done and said to me, but I ignored them and kept moving forward. Now I’m in college about to be a businessman and a fire fighter. My biggest goal is to show the world that even with a disability you deserve a spot on The throne!

When he broke down… that hit so hard bro. Anyone who’s ever plateaued in pursuit of their passion knows exactly how he felt in that moment 😣

Not seen this in years. Unashamed that i cried at 28 yrs old at this xD lees story is probably the most relatable in all of naruto. So many people deep down feel this way about themselves, i myself used to be the very same but now i ONLY wish to not give up and to always strive for better whilst not comparing myself to others which made me 100x happier once i stopped comparing

Lee was the real winner here

Lee😭 why didn't he got enough screentime in shippuden...

I am in a low point in my life, I promise I will come back to this comment, To tell my story one day. Doesnt matter how long it takes. I believe in myself and my hard work shall overcome everything.

The saddest part about this story is when he is training, he is going into the thousands of his exercises and when he fails to meet his goal he still feels like he is a failure. He doesn't realize how much he has accomplished. The idea of thinking that all your effort means nothing if you can't reach the arbitrary goal you or someone else set for you is one that is branded into the minds of innocents and it takes alot to break out it. And it wasn't until I met Rock Lee that I saw it happen and could accept it into my life. You are not a failure. You are not a genius. You are someone who works hard. And that is the most powerful, dangerous and scary thing in the world to those who would stand in your way

you ll never find something like this in todays shows

Notice how he is so hard on himself. “Sometimes it seems like the whole thing is pointless. Like I’m a loser and all I will ever be is a loser” that’s why he has the ability to train harder than everyone. He has to do it there is no choice. Be a loser or endure pain and suffering to be the best. Lee picks pain and suffering everyday.

I listen to this once in a while mid workout whenever I feel like I don’t believe in myself as much or when I’m messed up in my mind and I start to doubt myself. It wakes me up every time. Thank you for making this video. Rock lee is one of my workout inspirations

Whenever I lose all the hopes and have a mental breakdown, Rocklee acts like a therapy for me. Putting all the efforts you can, going beyond your limits and not getting any results? Have perseverance like Lee you will definitely make it one day💫

Although Gaara won the fight, but Lee won our hearts.

i can relate to naruto but when it comes to rock lee he is my spirit character

""A dropout will beat a genius through hardwork." I've came back to this video for the last 2 years whenever I needed an extra boost of motivation or when I'd be just down-right sad. ROCK LEE IS THAT PERSON. THE ONE WHO NEVER GIVES UP WITHOUT A FIGHT !!

Still live by this moment everyday

The lesson that I learned from him is “hard work can beat talent"

“True Hardwork always beats natural Talent”

Whenever I mess up I come here. Guy and Lee have my utmost Respect.

Rock Lee is a Legend! No matter how wierd things he do, he's always been a True Shinobi

The harsh reality is most us had this cry with no one to lift us up like Guy did here. As a result of this, some of us have grown cold and heartless.

Let's have a silence moment for guy sensei too. He was a father figure that kept pushing Lee and carving the growing twists on his ninja road

This video did it's job and then some and hit you right in the feels. If you're waining on confidence, rewatch this.

I just had a shitty workout I always push hard and the same was true for today but afterwards I just felt defeated.. I never had a father figure to teach me these kinds of lessons but I heard guy and Lee talk about this struggle when I was kid and after revisiting as an adult I realized that this is the most important lesson I've ever learned. Thank you so much Guy Sensei you were like a father to me

Who is cutting onions bruh........Rock lee is amazing

All those lame background characters in the beginning making fun of Lee, are either dead or are nobodies.

this made me cry my eyes out, rock lee will forever be inside my heart

I've always related to Lee, until recently I never understood how he could have such willpower no matter what happened. He isn't real but is one of the examples of a person I hope to become. I'm grateful Masashi decided to write him.

If ii ever become a dad. Gai will be a huge influence in how i bring up my kids.

Rock Lee's speech about feeling scared that he will never progress and "always be a loser" breaks my heart every time. It's so real, and even though it's a dub Brian Donovan's performance is unmatched in that scene, with the voice cracks and stutters. it's so good.

The older I get, the more I feel this video. Hard work really beats talent!

I still get emotional every time i watch this

The original All Might and Midoriya

“You’re right, all the effort is pointless if you don’t believe in yourself”😢that hit hard

He wanted to prove he can be a splended ninja even without ninjutsu and genjutsu Years later* 3rd strongest human in boruto alive

not gon lie… this gets me everytime

“Your right all the effort is pointless, if you don’t believe in yourself.” - Might Guy. No one had a stronger Will of Fire than Lee and Guy Sensei. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

7:45 was the first time this series made me cry. Lee's tears and self pity was so relatable, and guy's simple yet effective response was perfect. There are times in my life, you wonder whats the point in even trying when you keep failing. God, Naruto in its underdog years was so good..

When Lee said "I do not know what to do" i felt that ❤️

"YOU HAVE A GIFT OF PERSEVERANCE THAT DEFINES YOU WHO YOU ARE"Iis the strongest line 💪 😉

Rock Lee alone made the Chunin Exams arc one of the best in part 1, not to mention Rock Lee vs Gaara

"Your right....All the effort is pointless, if you don't believe in yourself." This should be everybody's mantra because it's so true. If you don't believe in it yourself then it's doomed to fail.

enough to make a grown man cry😭

whenever i dont want to work towards my goals .i see this video and i get immense power 🥶🤯

"Right now, there are people all over the world who are just like you. They're either lonely, they're missing somebody, they're depressed, they're hurt, they're scarred from the past, they're having personal issues no one knows about, they have secrets you wouldn't believe. They wish, they dream and they hope. And right now, they are sitting here reading these words, and I'm writing this for you so you don't feel alone anymore. Always remember, don't be depressed about the past, don't worry about the future, and just focus on today. If today's not so great don't worry! Tomorrow's a new chance.You are not guilty , you are a Good person. If you are reading this, be sure to share this around to make others feel better. Have a nice day!-Vine Addicted(one good guy)

Gai Sensei took a loser and turned him into a beast that almost killed a Jinchuuriki and was acknowledged as a genius by Kakashi himself...if anyone is a a real MVP it’s Gai

There are people out there in the world who needs to hear this message and I’m glad this anime did it

I've watched over 50 great Anime, and I have to say without a doubt, that this is by far the best scene that I have ever watched in all of Anime history. No one can change my mind. I literally cried so hard man...
