Does Naruto know how many episodes Jiraiya died?
Naruto has never experienced the killing of his relatives, but he didn't have any relatives at first. After Jiraiya's death, Naruto became another person, a master with a deeper relationship between master and apprentice than Kakashi, and a master with a deeper relationship between father and son than Watergate. This is the third generation, and Iruka can't compare with Kakashi.
Jiraiya's role prototype:
Jiraiya's prototype comes from the hero Hao Jie Ye Lei in the Japanese short story Ye Lei. Er Lei is also a fighter who fights toads. His wife is Princess Gang Shou who fights with slugs (the prototype of Gang Shou), while their enemies use snakes, which is the prototype of orochimaru. As the author committed suicide, we can't know what the ending of this story is.
Jiraiya's role background:
One of the "three forbearance", he is the master of four generations of Huo Yingbo's geomantic omen and his son Naruto Uzumaki. When I was young, I taught Changmen, Xiaonan and Yahiko. Jiraiya's family is very mysterious. Kishimoto never said what his parents were like. It seems that he has always been alone.
Jiraiya's personality characteristics:
Lust is unrestrained, like beauty, like voyeurism, and almost killed by Gang Shou for voyeurism. But under the lewd appearance, there is a kind and reliable heart. He took Nagato as an apprentice and tried to guide Nagato. He devoted himself to teaching Naruto and always paid attention to his growth. He loves this village deeply, and even at the expense, he will try his best to spread the message.
Jiraiya has always regretted not stopping orochimaru. He loved Gang Shou almost all his life, but in the end he couldn't wait to get back. He regards Watergate as his son, while Naruto is more like his grandson.
