<p>In chapter 498 of the manga, it is mentioned that Naruto inherited this habit from his mother, Kushina, who would instead end her sentences with "(Da)-ttebane" ([だ]ってばね) when she got excited or angry.

Than after Naruto had kids, his older son, Boruto, inherited that too.

After 489 chapters the mangaka reveals a great mystery, why Naruto ends his sentences a certain way... or he just decided why not make something up... that sounds more likely to me since Naruto started as a one-shot :)

<p>In both the anime and manga Naruto often ends his sentences with either "dattebayo" or "believe it" in the English translations. </p>

<p>Why is this a thing?</p>

<p>Is it meant to further his character or provide a bit of remembrance of his character to the reader or viewer, or even other characters of the series?</p>

Why does Naruto have a catch phrase?
