>>284441153YOU'RE LATE!!!
>>284441153Mug shot worthy pic.
>>284441196Internet was being slow, my b.
>>284441228should've answered "sorry i'm late, i'm afraid i got lost in time glazing my hero, obito"
>>284441228How shitty are Orochimarus experiments for Kimimaru to be the only one that could stop Juugo?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Orochimaru's hideout that Sasuke went to buried deep within a forest instead of this craggy cliffside near the ocean Jugo is in?
>>284441260Not the only one who could stop him, the only one who could stop him *without harming him*
>>284441276
>>284441292>juugo shocked at hearing Kimimaro is dead>instantly show a flashback of Kimimaro telling juugo he's sacrificing himself
Jugo seems pointless. Why did Kishi bother retconning the curse marks and then doing nothing with him? The curse marks were cooler when they were Orochimaru snake bites.
>>284441274Obviously Kimimaro ran from Orochimaru's hideout to the one Jugo was in and then ran back to get Sasuke. Don't you remember the speed feats in that arc?
>>284441314Sauce sure is lucky Jugo is literally the only Orochimaru prisoner who's never learned about how he was the one who killed Orochimaru, which is the complete opposite of what Kimimaro wanted.
>>284441338The First
>>284441276Got cucked.
>>284441274you are not wrong and Kishimoto is a hack for even adding these shitty panels to pad out the chapter lenght
>>284441358surely this will be important
>>284441358>>284441373I never knew what Suigetsu meant by this. Maybe back when Karin was saved by Sasuke in the Forest of Death?
>>284441408Everything in the last 4 chapters has been important.
What’s the point of Sasuke tagging along with three retards who he can each literally one shot in a nano seconds?
>>284441419
>>284441399Would Suigetsu with Samehada be stronger than Kisame?
>>284441419How can you be the reincarnation of someone who was alive?
>>284441450I don't think Samehada would even accept Suigetsu.
For some reason this page is missing from the sites where I get the colored pages from, so just pretend this one isn't BW. >>284441450Not in a million years
>>284441445>he wants to infiltrate the Akatsuki The fuck, where did that come fromIs this a mistranslation?
>>284441274Kimimaro was unconscious and tubed up to a hospital bed in the forest hideout, then left to fight immediately after waking. Obviously this was a shadow clone he had sent out prior to becoming sick, so before even knowing of Sasuke's existence, even.
>>284441419How did they have the chance to talk about Sasuke? Kimimaro died like 2 hours after he learned Sasuke existed.
>>284441153Why kishi why??
>>284441485>>284441507>Akatsuki suck so hard instead of having to track and isolate Naruto he's coming for them
>>284441201Yeah I miss Kimimaro too, Jugo.
>>284441507Casually farming aura while soloing the water droplets
>>284441153I wonder if there was any planned link between him and Yahiko like there turned out to be between Karin and Nagato.
>>284441292Why did kishi feel the need to give a backstory to Jugo and only Jugo for this new team?
>>284441485Do you think it would've been too cheesy if Sasuke called his team the Sound 4
>>284441201Not that this is the first time it's been brought up, but if you think about it, part 1 ended with a Kaguya being the second to last fight before ending in Naruto vs. Sasuke.Part 2...
>>284441593Cheesy? No, but it would've been weird since the Sound moniker has been completely dropped by this point IIRC.
>>284441354He needed to explain why the Marks outlasted Orochimaru's death.
>>284441507>tracing Bejita
>>284441593Anyone got the manga page showing the power of Kidomarus arrow that people were talking about being the biggest?
>>284441450Kisame without Samehada still had the chakra level of a Bijuu.
>>284441344He wasn't shocked about that.
>>284441614He still explains that later by having Orochimaru respawn through them. Jugo was entirely pointless.
>>284441260Dozu, Zaku, and Kin were just working their way up the ladder while bitter they couldn't participate in the invasion. Kabuto's team were in for the money. The sound four shouted at Sasuke that Orochimaru doesn't care. They all would have helped during the search, but Orochimaru is a sperg who needs a translator
>8 out of 16 pages is in-cell jugo talk about his cancer victim boyfriend oh no... I'm not feeling well.... I need to cough really badHACK HACK HACK
>>284441445I don't know why Naruto is baffled by this. Sasuke has spent his entire life doing this one thing.
>>284441610The sound moniker wasn't even a thing within the Sound 4(5)[6] outside of Tayuya's flute jutsu.
>>284441628I'll post it after the dump if someone doesn't beat me to it.
Jugo's character is a mess.>His age doesn't match up with when Anko got the Curse Mark.>Kimimaro somehow went to an entirely different hideout just to tell Jugo he is going to get Sasuke after getting taken off life-support.
>>284441572Probably a basic interest to show that not everyone associated with Orochimaru was a villain or complete victim.
>>284441683Ages in Naruto are basically ephemeral.
>>284441507Why does he have his sharingan active?
>>284441683Also his entire motivation as a character to follow Sasuke makes 0 sense because of what >>284441380 said.
>>284441672Kimimaro's dances fit that too.
>>284441683>Kimimaro somehow went to an entirely different hideout just to tell Jugo he is going to get Sasuke after getting taken off life-support.The argument can be made that they were in the same hideout at the time.Orochimaru switches hideouts regularly, and it'd make sense that they need to haul the cancer patient around to keep him alive.That, or they only had one place at the time, and got more hideouts later?
>>284441274Stop noticing. You WILL like this new character Jugo, look, see, you like Kimimaro, right? He was having gay buttsex with this guy! Hey, where are you going?
>>284441572Because Jugo was the origin of the curse mark.
>>284441292Maybe he would've made it back if he didnt waste so much time coming here to talk to his boyfriend
>>284441314>my dream teamHe is openly making fun of them already?
>>284441683at this point in the manga it still wasn't revealed that jugo is the origin of curse mark and it all would be dandy if kishi wasn't a complete cretin
>>284441753But it was already shown that Kimimaro was bedridden with Kabuto right next to him during the SRA. Did Kabuto randomly move from the forest hideout to the oceanside one and then back to the forest one so he could nurse both Kimimaro and Orochimaru?
>>284441753This specific hideout is the only one where Orochimaru keeps his curse mark rejects in, though. The others seem to be for general experiments and whatnot with none CM prisoners. Orochimaru holds his battle royale with a whole group of them for his new body and none of them have CM, so it'd have to be in one of the other hideouts, yeah?
>>284441628Got it covered.
See ya tomorrow, anons.
>>284441324It's like a tier above being able to defeat themIt's like Jiraiya and the 4-tails naruto, if you can beat them, it's one thing, but if you can beat them without even harming them, you're in another leagueSo basically that means the new guy that we just spent three chapters hyping up is in fact several times weaker than kimmy, who was defeated three arcs ago by literal children. Wow, anyone else excited for the next hundred chapters?
>>284441840Stronger than the Ten Tail's attack during the war btw
>>284441485Ai art: Coloring no Jutsu.
>>284441810I guess that's fair.I never thought this was an issue before, I guess that's the beauty of dailies.
>>284428410>even Yugitos bra was sacrificed for plot convenienceDid she never wear anything or did she bandage her breasts and Tobito didn't care to replace them after necro raping her?
>>284441840>couldn't even kill a geninlol
>>284441840Isn't that just dust being flung around?
>>284441802He was revealed to be the origin a couple of chapters ago.
>>284441840Neji would get absolutely destroyed by Temari
>>284441292>He is like my reincarnationYeah about that....
Part II really is when everything falls apart.
>>284441901This is a different arrow, but we see from several of the ones previously that they have no issue skewering through pretty fucking big trees.
What are the red flames on Hinata's part 1 jacket supposed to be? Are they the symbol of the Hyuga clan?
>>284441915where exactly? all I rember is that he got the rehashed kabuto bloodlust that he wanted to fix and nothing else
>>284442020
>>284441876>Transyuya that high>Sakura, Anko, Shizune that low
>>284441975People were complaining about the SRA being bad, though I really didn't see what was so wrong with it. But everything in part 2 so far except for most of the Kazekage Rescue arc has been utterly unsalvageable trash.
>>284442003>>284442020>>284442042Asuma would be devastated. Still stuff like Deidara, Matatabi or Kakuzus attacks seem much large scale, no?
>>284442007Foreshadowing this
>>284442036Right here, dude >>284372320
>>284442056Oh yeah, for sure. But that's all shit from kage tier fights, bijuu, or what not. Kidomaru is a fucking chunnin and that's from a single arrow.
>>284442053I like Tayuyas hair, while Tayuya and Anko don't really do much for me.Sakura was cute with the long hair, but the short hair I don't like and she get's too much screentime for doing nothing. No disrespect to them though, the only one I really dislike is Karin.
>>284441276Based.
>>284442096>Asuma, a mid tier jonin that trained for years using wind element>blade goes through a tree>Naruto practices wind for a week>creates jutsu with infinite attacks that destroy opponents on a cellular level
>>284441840People keep wanking Deidara itts for being able to fly, but an arrow from Kidomaru could easily fuck up his giant bird doll.
>>284441419Surely we could have gotten Jugo some clothes, ANY clothes in that dungeon full of dead prisoners?The man is walking barefoot through this rocky chasm
>>284442098>Tayuya and AnkoShizune and Anko of course...
>>284441412It could be either the Forest of Death retcon, or the fact she got passed around injured people and let herself be bitten by them.
>>284442149And people still seethe at this video for saying Naruto isn't the underdog the story wants him to be, kek.
>>284442195Did this video ruin Naruto or did it simply reveal that the average person who read Naruto is fucking stupid and didn't understand it somehow?
At this point in the series, pinkshitters were fighting battles in two fronts, depending on who they shipped Sakura with>if they shipped her with Sasuke, they were fighting off the new "karinfags" who jumped into the chance to troll them>if they shipped her with Naruto, they were fighting off hinatafags, as always. Hinata was so absent from the series at that point they didn't consider her a real threat, though
>>284441860>Sasuke changing shirts mid sentenceStop, stop, that's enough speed feats
>>284442056Asuma would've dodged or deflected it.
Don't get me wrong, I love this series, but a lot of the shit in this timeskip isn't making any sense.
>>284442457I was refering to >>284442096 (his best feat)
>>284442149>Naruto practices wind for a week....with hundreds of clothes he can only use due to fox welfare
>>284441876Patrician S and A tiers
>>284442467>but a lot of the shit in this timeskip isn't making any senseJust like part 1.
>>284441314dreamteam??
>>284442487The feat where he said he was holding back?
>>284441276if your ship relies on an asspull scarf that Naruto supposedly cherished since childhood but it somehow never appeared in 700 chapters of the original manga, then it's not a good ship.
>>284442488There's hundreds of weeks in a handful of yearsNot to mention naruto is a complete retard that becomes super genius only when the plot demands itGarbage writing
>I collected you 3 jobbers...>...to help me kill my brotherThis is someone's hero?
>>284441180>I'll be your cagegay>>284441760>please like Suigetsu he uses the ZABUZA SWORD that cannot be beat>please like Jugo he's best friends with Kimimaro who you liked>please like Karin she's flat, assless, and angry/horny for Sasuke0 charisma team>>284441337leet digits. Even if it's for a joke, it's nice that Sasuke was willing to help Karin here, he could've just said we're killing Itachi and that's that.>>284441412It could only really be this. Why Suigetsu would know that is anyone's guess.>>284441450Kisame is hands down the best Water user in the series, it's not even close. Suigetsu's best "feats" later and even what his Mizukage ancestor do are nothing compared to spitting out lakes, moving water dome with user as the center, and chakra-absorbing giant shark missile, Sidekicksame is loaded.>>284441507Is Itachi being Jiraiya's man on the inside so closely guarded of a secret, that even Tsunade doesn't know? You'd think J-man would say something here, hey, maybe messing with Itachi isn't in the village's interest, etc.
>>284442534I mean, it's not that I want to put him down, just that Kishi makes this out to be something impressive and it's the only thing Asuma does before dying.
>>284441358>>284441373Suigetsu saw Karin masturbating?
>>284442538Naruto was supposed to be with Sakura from the beginning of part 2 but kishi abandoned shipHence why sasusaku was also a last minute thing that made no sense
>It's almost time for this What The Fuck panel
so in over +1000 episodes i watched from this franchise, it amazes me, HOW FUCKING EASY it is to infiltrate and spy the hokage's place! every time, all the time, characters overhear or sneak into the hokage's offices like nothing! ANYONE CAN ENTERJUST THINK ABOUT THAT
>>284441572wow that's small
>>284442007her sexy tummy
>>284442602He didn't abandoned it. It was never happening. Fuck off already.
>>284441337Sasuke is so clueless about women
>>284442590>Kishi makes this out to be something impressiveNot really. He's just showing Naruto how he uses wind chakra.
>>284442617Super secretive ninja organisationPlease understand
>>284441804The hideout where Jugo is located seems to be where a bunch of mountains or rock formations are at. Karin's was at the ocean.
>>284442492Thank you, friend!
>>284442617Who the hell is that
>>284442604Shartsuke KNEELS to Chiyo-neko
>>284442666Why does the cloud village get to have two tailed beasts? That doesn't seem fair.
>>284442719Mist got two as well.What's strange to me is how a minor village like Waterfall got a Bijuu.
>>284442719In exchange it's kinda like another, where they have to pretend one of them doesn't exist.
>>284442675neko ninja cat (wasabi) pawah nya!!!!
>>284441726By this point his health is so crap he has to keep it active for decent eyesight.
>>284441726Cuz it looks cool and it's not that strenuous
>>284442675>>284442796
>>284442617i remember when naruto saved tsunade when they attacker her though the window from far awaymakes you wonder why they put a fucking huge window behind the hokage back
>pov: (You) are team 15 sensei
>>284442007
>>284442538That's not what happened and Naruto didn't cherish any scarf. Konohamaru finds him a green one that Kushina made for him and that Hiruzen had saved, and Hinata makes him a red one like the one he had at the start of the movie as a kid but got ruined by the bullies.
>>284442796Oh its from that.
>>284442617Your mistake was watching the anime, full of retarded fillers and decisions from Pierrot.
Some one posted a jpg yesterday of sasuke putting narutos head on his lap, will denying sakura a kiss and maintaining distance.>i am convinced that this is a yoi manga and there is nothing that will disapprove of this.
>>284442604Karin pondering her future as a catlady
>>284442625Not small enough
>>284441314Does Sasuke needing to keep Jugo in check ever come up again?
>>284441408it's just the thing about Sasuke saving her in the chunin exams
>>284442943The anime is mostly fine unless you're a pinkshitter. Then again the manga is bad for them too so...
>>284441373>by the way I already stuck my penis smack dab behind sasuke
>>284441507>Kisame.. we're gonna get soaked.
>>284442906>you have to deal with this kid
>>284441450Hell no, he wouldn't even be able to keep it fedKisame is called a tailless biju from how big his chakra pool is
>>284441412>i know that you are actually a manand then kishi changed it
>>284441507>More like a Naruto: Ultimate Ninja STORM™ to me...
>>284441860Tsunade actually looks pretty good in red
>>284443070>Naruto: Ultimate Ninja STORM™They should make DLC for it and adapt more movies. Also, I'm the GREATEST player here!
Karin would be hotter if she was a MtFThere I said itNo regrets
>>284441841thanks op.
>>284443011Everyone gets fucked in the anime to some degree, Pinkshit sometimes is made to look more competent than she really is (e.g. Sasori fight) but also suffers because Pierrot just has the tendency to pick some basic character trait and blow it up to eleven, making them feel OoC and more one-note than they are.But the anime also fucks up canon content as well by either poorly adapting it or altering it to fit the directors' agenda, or sometimes goes full retard and inserts a bunch of filler that wasn't there in the chapter from the manga it is adapting to pad out episode length. Padding out the content also makes the pacing fucking pudrid most of the time.
>>284443128You know what fair enough mate. (Still mad they didn't adapt the literal ending)
>>284441419>sword hunting>crush>schizo delusionsNot the best motivations for a criminal team, but alright.
>SchizophreniaWow, he's literally us.
>hair tied backVery pretty
>>284441485>Naruto just orders a tracking team to be put together and the Hokage just agrees.
>>284443224The POWER of a future Kage
>>284443109Eh, maybe. I have known a lot of transfems really into being bitten and abused.
>>284443224Naruto's got that brocon hag wrapped around his finger, and he doesn't even know it.
>>284443224A wife must always obey her husband
>>284441292>The mental gymnastics Kishi had to go through to make any sense of this.
>>284441358What did she DO!?!?
>>284441382>Married SasukeHow so?>>284441380He KNOWS Sasuke killed Orochimaru, that's why when Oro is brought back in the war he puts himself between them thinking Oro wanted payback, the problem is that he doesn't seem to know how mucu Kimi loved Oro.
>>284443204I prefer slag version
>>284443204Where's this from
>>284441419Kimimaro was 2-3 years old when Sasuke was born.>>284441445>He's still...?Of course he still wants revenge Naruto, why wouldn't he?You think Orochimaru was the sole reason Sasuke wanted to kill Itachi?
>>284442156You know higher level characters can just dodge shit from weaker characters right?
I crave the sasukussy
>>284443470What is Deidara's power level?
>>284441314There was no reason for this. He could have just tamed Jugo with Genjutsu, maybe even visit whatever mind demon he had like he did with Naruto. The whole Kimimaro flashback was pointless.
>>284441507>>284441827>>284441841Arigatou, OUR LEADER!
I don't think anyone says this often, but Sasuke killing Orochimaru and going off on his own basically invalidates Naruto's entire motivation and training. He did all that to save Sasuke, only for Sasuke to clown him when they meet again and Sasuke later rescues himself. In short, it was all pointless.
>>284443569Sasuke never needed savingNaruto's motivation is to drag Sasuke back against his will
>>284443548Kishi was trying to make these new characters interesting by connecting them to older characters you liked more.
>>284442617>bort shitFuck off
>>284443569Yes, Sasuke and the Uchihawank are two major plot tumors.
>>284443569>Does nothing in orochimaru hideout>Does nothing in the entire arc of getting gaara backYou know what, I agree with you lot. Naruto and Sakura should be together since they're both massive JOBBERS
>>284443128>Sasori fightIt was the same as the manga.
>>284442007>>284442908No, this is the symbol.
>>284443617
>>284443157>Still mad they didn't adapt the literal endingWhat?
>>284443224Naruto and Tsunade are canonically fucking at this point, that's why she's willing to do what he says.
>>284442195>Copies Lee and Nejifag blog posts>Adds jokes into the script>Makes a video in his monotone youtuber voice>ruins Naruto discussion for nearly a decade and get other fandoms to be obsessed with the idea of underdog protagonists.I almost want to salute this man, almost.
>>284443507Above Kidomaru.
>>284442534Too bad he doesn't have any better feats than that.
>>284443636The anime version makes it seem like Sakura is actually holding her own, when in the manga it's barely even a fight. Sasori nearly kills her with basic attacks at every turn and Chiyo has to save her, and Sakura destroys like one single puppet in the manga instead of like 100. There is no epic fight in it.
>>284441373I unironically like suigetsu so much. Best new character. Totally wasted doing this in the story.
>>284443805He's the only one on the team who doesn't wank or want to fuck Sasuke.
>>284443434
>>284443614Who the fuck likes Kimimaro? Fujos? Maybe Kishi should've made Jugo a twink
>>284443842
>>284443840Yeah part of the reason i like him is that he's just kind of an asshole to his whole team for no reason other than he's just an asshole. It's very funny.
>>284443569I mean he still wanted to become hokage tier with his strength
>>284443224>>284443247>>284443250>>284443714She also obeyed Kakashi when he kept insisting that she should allow Inoshikacho to throw their lives at the akatsuki, i guess she's just that much of a pushover.
>>284443842Karin is 100% an anal slutYou just know
>>284443766He decapitated an S-rank ninja.
>>284443678Last chapter
>>284443790>The anime version makes it seem like Sakura is actually holding her ownJust like the manga.
>>284444139...with a lot of help.
>>284441450Lol, lmao even. Kisame is a freak of nature, while Suigetsu is just a little shit pretending like he’s a part of the seven swordsmen.
>>284441153Is Ramen not cleansing the Senjus anymore?
>Either Jiraiya never asked Tsunade nice enough to let him hit or sex is where she draws the line
>>284444411He's not coming back bro
>>284444412No she wanted to finally do it but he died
>>284444527Tsunade was never going to go through with it even if he survived.
>>284444411the senjus won
>>284441846>who was defeated three arcs ago by literal childrenhe was never really defeatedplus the child who "defeated" him was literally kage tier
>>284443475Sasuke's character doesn't make sense as a woman.
>>284444252No.
>>284444544She literally says "Jiraiya is always trying to be cool. When he gets back I won't let him keep his cool anymore"Take that as you will but it sounds to me that if he had returned she had full attentions of jumping his bones Fucking his old ass.
>>284444252lollmao>Sakura, fuck off. I can't defend you and me>Sakura stays, loses a puppet to iron sand>Seriously, you're dragging me down, go away>Sakura stays, more puppet damage>UUUH I'M STAYING GRANNY COS I'M USEFULL>Instead of just blasting them again with the same attack that they don't have the puppets to defend against, he makes giants shapes that she can easily punch awayThat fight was an easy lose. Plotnojutsu asspulled hard to get her out of that.
>>284444759>Sasuke's character doesn't make senseYeah, no shit
>>284444764Anon, i'm telling you that Kishimoto only had that happen because he was already hellbent on Jiraiya dying, he wasn't actually going to develop their relationship.
>>284444807His struggle is extremely masculine, and basically totally relies on a masculine view of responsibility regarding the clan and Itachi. If Sasuke was a (well written) woman, the focus would not be in hunting Itachi to the other side of the world and back again for revenge, but the revenge would be seen in something like Fem!Sasuke trying to live her life how she wanted to, regardless of what Itachi fantasized about regarding a murderous sibling rivalry.Sasuke's very male sense of duty and responsibility means that he owes it to his clan in the abstract and his family in the personal to kill Itachi at all costs to himself or others. And that he had to do it alone. Fem!Sasuke's female sense of revenge would be in denying Itachi the satisfaction of ruining her life. That she would deny Itachi his fantasy and instead go her own direction entirely.
>>284444765None of what you described actually happened, it was SAKURA who was doubting herself while Chiyo was praising her for adapting mid-fight.
>>284442921This never happened.
>>284444908uhhhh retardCharacters are defined a lot more than just a single motive
>>284445045Sasuke is defined by his motive. He is extremely goal oriented.
>>284444762>>284444765I know Sakura's existence mindrapes you faggots, but it was still the same as the manga.
>>284445062Sasuke is defined by his actionsYou'd know that if you weren't a woman and understood what accountability is
>>284444765Speedreader, Sasori would've murdered Chiyo if Sakura wasn't there.
>>284444877No i agree , but thats why he made that little innuendo since he was going to kill him off but you can not disagree tsunade was finally falling for him.>You know what i take it back even after his death she had lots of regret to sending him alone.
>>284445097Brother, the one not giving Sasuke accountability are his crazy exes.
>>284444977It's the movie's plot, but go off pajeet.
>>284445107I guarantee you that if Jiraiya came back alive Kishi would just fumble the bag by giving her the icky and invalidate everything that happened in that scene, much like he did with Naruto all the time.
>>284444527>>284444764Tsunade still wants Dan. Accept already, Jiraiya.
>>284445097His actions are driven entirely by his strict focus on achieving his goal. Sasuke, in a very masculine sense, has a deathly responsibility to kill his brother and the accountability for who he hurts on the way is less important than the end goal. After Itachi that goal changes, and the same rules apply. Then he degenerates to just wanting to hurt the world. Sasuke doesn't care about being a 'bad guy' because he is extremely self-righteous and believes that his goals are above and outside the rules of society and others. But just the same he lacks most materialistic ambition or desire.
>>284443224She's too drunk to Hokage. His plan makes it seem like she's doing her job.
Hiashi won.
>>284441726so he can count th rain drops
>>284444925I'm not gonna argue with a delusional retardAnyone can go read chapter 268-269 and see the truth
>>284445097Nigga Sasuke gives himself accountability, he refuses to take and works on alien hunting missions precisely to atone.Kishimoto is classic sexist, if he wanted Sasuke to have a female mind or personality he'd have Sasuke live off Sakura's hard earned money.
>>284444461
>>284445175Post a page where Chiyo demands Sakura to leave, I'll wait.
>>284441337I find it hillarious that Sasuke actually believed it and was willing to give it the time of the day.
>>284445228Sure hope the wait wasn't long
>>284445154>>284445148I agree but , you realize that she wanted to finally accept him.During their last chit chat after jiraya gets jobbed
>>284442599That's how Suigetsu was born, Karin is basically his mother. Why do you think he's basically made of water?
>>284445257Sasuke is a professional.
>>284443805I liked it when he called out Kabuto's bullshit. Sometimes he's basically a reader's surrogate.
Why is Hebisuke so autistic? He keeps taking things literally and never uses facial expressions anymore.
>>284441450Suigetsu is above average but not on Kisame's level.
>>284445261Alright, i stand corrected, although Chiyo quickly changes her mind about Sakura like two chapters later and goes to have pages of non stop wank.
>>284445257If Sasuke were average looking there is no way he would ever get laid
>>284442617Bro a ninja academy student no diffed their own Hokage and stole a forbidden, sacred scroll. Orochimaru infiltrated the village and casually roamed in broad day light. One of their chunins was murdered at night and there was no commotion. Itachi waltzed into the village and casually ate in a ramen shop next to fucking Kakashi until Kakashi finally turned his brain on. Orochimaru's sound four, th same ones who revealed themselves in broad day light during Konoha Crush, infiltrated the leaf and kicked Sasuke's ass in the open while causing destruction, and nobody paid notice. Sasuke was able to walk out of his own village with no one guarding the gate to stop him except fucking Sakura. People can talk trash on the sand village, but even the art duo had to plan their infiltration and still got caught.
>>284445308He's very confident in his power right now, and as far as he knows, there's no rush to actually catch Itachi otherwise. So he's mostly just coasting and gathering the team that he planned out and is pretty low stress overall. There's nothing to fear or worry about, no one to get in his way.
>>284443224He did just 1 shot an akatsuki tbf
>>284441180>>284441228>>284441399>"..."

>>284445133And the movie isn't in the manga so again, it never happened.
>>284445412Not the point of the false claim + it's still canon.
>>284444411I HATE THE SENJUS
>>284445339Ninjas are legitimately retarded
>>284445339Tobirama would have not let that happen.
>>284441572shivers up my spine goddamn sakura
>>284444411Hashirama showed up.
>>284441354It's a little strange how uneventful these past 4 chapters are, maybe Kishi was busy with something or needed a bit of a break and took a little extra time on this Jugo business for 1 reason or another
>>284441153thanks SAKON
>>284441314>dream teamPlease tell me this is the translators being idiots. Not only does it sound completely off for his character but those three being on anyone's "dream team" is just laughable.
>>284442581>ZABUZA SWORD that cannot be beathttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3Dd2tgtPjQ
>>284443475>this bitch will never Kirin your dickWhy live?
>>284445593>It's a little strange how uneventful these past 4 chapters areOver half of part 2 has been uneventful to be desu. This feels pretty normal to me.
>>284442054I find the Kakuzu arc to only be moderately worse than SRA. Kazekage rescue arc ended up better than I remembered, close to SRA level (which isn't a high bar desu)
>>284442617>Bort GOLDKeep up!
>>284445437It's a last minute ass pull to try and justify the dogshit ship. If Naruto and Hinata had such a bond at such a young age, you'd imagine them being closer when they grow up. Not for Naruto to completely ignore her existence afterwards. The movie is just non canon filler.
>>284445737The focus switch off of Naruto/akatsuki and going into the literally who stuff of this arc is especially uneventful Though
>>284444764A woman moving on? Not in this series.
>>284445647Sasuke originally said in japanese:「これでオレの思い描く小隊のメンバーはそろった これからオレの目的を言う ("Now I have all the members I envisioned for my squad. I will now tell you my objective.")
>>284446026Learn to read, pajeet. The post claimed something the movie is not about. Also the flashback doesn't say that nor is any different from when Naruto gets asspulled flashbacks about Sasuke inbthe middle of the manga. Lastly the ship was already build up/justified in the manga, The Last was just fluff.>The movie is just non canon filler.Tell that to Kishi.
>>284446026Nigger Kishimoto already told you he didn't prioritize romance. He planned them getting together and not how that would happen. Your dogshit headcanon was raped ages ago fuck off already.
>>284441337>dream teamthis sauce is zesty...
>>284442581Itachi isn't Jiraiya's informant. That's fanon. Itachi DID join Akatsuki on behalf of Hiruzen, but Hiruzen is dead, so Itachi is doing this all solo. We never learn who Jiraiya's sources are.
>>284441662Man I miss Dosu, goated design, goated personality and goated voice actor in the anime
>>284445280>you realize that she wanted to finally accept him.No she didn't. Her tsukuyomi dream proves she only saw Jiraiya as a friend.
>>284446148>ship was built up in the mangaNo it wasn't lol. Not even once at any point in the manga did Naruto show even the slightest inkling of romantic emotion towards her. Therefore it wasn't built up at all, nor justified with him not giving a single romantic shit about her. >>284446165What headcannon? Where did I ever mention a different ship? You must be mentally ill, seeing shit that wasn't there. You don't have to want a different ship to notice this one was dogshit. Saying stuff like "he didn't prioritize romance" makes you look like a retard because just by reading the manga you can see that he actually spent a good bit of time giving Naruto moments where he expresses romantic feelings. Only he has NEVER done it towards Hinata. If Kishi really didn't care about romance he wouldn't have put any of it into the story but he did. And you only make yourself look retarded by claiming otherwise.
>>284446026The movie is canon. Boruto is canon too btw.
>>284441292>>284441314KINO ALERT! KINO ALERT!
>>284446370>Not even once at any point in the manga did Naruto show even the slightest inkling of romantic emotion towards her
>>284446370He literally said he didn't want to focus on it because Naruto is a battle manga. He did admit to baiting to throw folks off the scent. You're asshurt that you fell for it and are still writing paragraphs about your seethe a decade later. Genuinely put a bullet in your jaw you ship obsessed nigger.
>>284446415That's ironically the closest thing to a confession from him in the entire manga, lol. Meanwhile with Pinkie....
>>284446494>Page that Sakura Haters still use out of context.
If Kishimoto went with NaruSaku he'd just end up giving more bones to NaruHina to bait that ship instead and you'd be doing this exact same seething but for another ship.
>>284446494Man the old forums went nuts when this dropped. It pretty much nuked what remained of her reputation.
>>284446563Still the most people girl in the series. It did nothing.
>>284441726Can't show weakness in the Akatsuki so he never turns his sharingan off.
>>284446563It is a good moment for her. Naruto was genuinely delusional at this point in the story.
>>284446374Fanfiction. Last canon chapter was 699. Chapter 700 is a fantasy omake. >>284446415Lmao please. Fucking please point out where the romantic emotion is present in that page. You're literally seeing things that aren't there. >>284446437Again talking about some ship I never mentioned, are you retarded? I mean, you are cause you're saying he didn't want to focus on it when he clearly was focusing on it. Just not towards the girl he totally planned to be the end goal from the start.
>>284446605>Still the most people girl in the series. It did nothing.What? Are you ESL? >>284446637Nah. It showed she didn't believe in him and you knew her position was awful when Kiba of all characters said this was a stupid idea. She thought Naruto was dumb here. That's not what friends do man.
>>284446651>Fucking please point out where the romantic emotion is present in that pageHe literally blushed to her like two pages earlier.
>>284446668You mean *an ESL*.
>>284446668Believing in Naruto meant supporting him when he was actively engaging in self-harm for the sake of 'protecting Sasuke'.
>>284446520The context and intent are quite clear, Anon.>>284446539It wouldn't because Hinata would still be a side-character and baiting isn't development.>>284446651>Fucking please point out where the romantic emotion is present in that page. You're literally seeing things that aren't there.Learn to read the subtext, Anon.
>>284446668The only people who care about this scene are self-inserters who completely forgot the reason why it happened and what Sakura and Naruto's intentions. In other words, you're being a drama queen.
>>284446651>Just not towards the girl he totally planned to be the end goal from the start.You mean Hinata. The girl wearing an Uzumaki necklace in early art with Naruto chilling in the background with the sun, and Hinata’s name literally means “Toward the sun.” Dumbass.>Last canon chapter was 699. Chapter 700 is a fantasy omake. >parts of the manga aren't canonKek. No one takes you seriously after that faggot. Go back.
>>284446707Yeah, because lying to his ass only to go kill Sasuke on his back and then kill herself was much better and less harmful for him.
Anti-Sakurafags will tell you Sakura is worse than the guy responsible for the deaths of Naruto's parents.
>>284443224Tsunade is submissive (and breedable)
>>284441572>>284446494She should have tried with this approach
>>284446707She was gonna kill Sasuke which would have hurt him more. And let's not forget her actions right before then where she drugged her fellow ninja who were to help them. She was a mega cunt here. >>284446719Her intentions dont matter when she was about to ruin Narutos life. Lying and killing is not what a good friend does.
>>284446752You can like Sakura and still understand there's nothing in there, Anon. In fact, actual pro-Sakura people would be able to see that Naruto treats her like a joke and doesn't bother to understand her feelings, with fucking Sasuke showing more sensibility.
>>284446752Shes worse for wasting my bloody time.
>>284446140The more curious line of dialogue is from this page>>284441445
>>284446811>Her intentions dont matter when she was about to ruin Narutos life. Lying and killing is not what a good friend does.Why are you creating scenes in your head and acting like they happened in the series?
>>284446752Naruto called him the coolest guy, so he must be that.
>>284446871She wanted to kill Sasuke. That was something Naruto refused to do. She wanted to lie to his face about loving him. Both actions would ruin/greatly upset Naruto.
>>284442617Wasabi is a cute and skilled ninja.
>>284445530Tobirama was a bad Hokage
>>284446748>>284446811Sasuke was already too far gone for any rational person by that point. It would hurt Naruto for him to die, it looked like it would kill Naruto for him to live at the time.
>>284446985Good tier: Kakashi, Tsunade Ok tier: HashiramaMeh tier: Naruto, Shikamaru, Minato, DanzoShit tier: Tobirama God awful: Hiruzen
>>284446670Why didn't you post that page then? Are you stupid? Also a blush itself is not a proof of romantic affection, especially when he doesn't talk to her again for like half the manga. >>284446708What subtext? Subtext of Naruto talking to her like she's a friend? Oh yes, totally romantic. He totally didn't forget she existed for like hundreds of chapters afterwards. >>284446735Oh early art, that proves everything!!! The fact that Naruto didn't give two shits about her for most of the manga totally don't matter. He was just playing hard to get!!Lmao. Fucking retards, it's so funny. Naruhina is a dogshit ship. It was never developed properly. Naruto didn't give a shit about her. She confessed and nearly died and he didn't even check up on her afterwards. But oh yes, such a wonderfully developed ship, true love right there. Moron.
>>284447015And yet Kiba could recognize her plan was retarded. She should have placed her trust in her friend. She failed.
>>284447120>She confessed and nearly died and he didn't even check up on her afterwards.He only felt his worst emotions ever and nearly fully unleashed Kurama out of pure anger, no big deal.
>>284447120I never said it was fully developed. I said it was planned from early on which Kishi also said.>redditspacingFuck off back to your blog faggot
>>284447086>Meh tier: MinatoAbsolute slander
>>284447086Naruto should be ok tier or higher. And Shikamaru ain't hokage.
>>284447086Hokages are better the less screentime they have. Hashirama just despawned a few years after he founded the village. Tobirama ran it for a decade or two that we don't know much about. Hiruzen was The Hokage for most of Konoha's history. The vast majority of the timeline of the setting happened while he was in charge. Therefore all the bad (and good) stuff necessary for the story to happen, happened necessarily while he was leader. Minato died before he could do anything. Tsunade was pretty close to Hiruzen in being the Hokage for the duration of the present-tense of the story, so she had to deal with all the bad things that happened in the setting. Kakashi got to lead during a timeskip to the future where Kishimoto redesigned the setting to be futuristic. So he gets credit for all the tech leaps that had to happen for that. Naruto had to deal with all the bad stuff that happens in Boruto (who knows, I don't read that shit)Shikamaru is the same, but the story is still on-going.
>>284441314>A schizo, a slutty alt girl and a guy with the fantasy equivalent to low blood sugar>the dream team
>>284447120>The fact that Naruto didn't give two shits about her for most of the manga totally don't matter.He gave more of a shit about her entire pain and conflict with Neji in the Chuunin Exam than he ever did towards Sakura's character in the rest of the manga, lool.
>>284447233>he gets credit for all the tech leaps that had to happen for that.Actually, we see a glimpse of Kakashi's reign as Hokage in The Last and Konoha is still as it was at the end of the war (no skyscrapers). And Naruto becomes Hokage only a few years later. So I give the credit to Naruto.
uooohhhhh
>>284447165Ah yes, he sees his friend nearly die right in front of him and goes apeshit, how strange. He would have gone apeshit for any of his friends. And again, he didn't even check on her afterwards. If he cared about her sooo much, I'd imagine he'd at least spare five minutes to see if she's okay after nearly fucking dying. >>284447170>bitching about spacing Are you truly, genuinely retarded? Were you dropped on your head? Maybe huffed glue too much? I hope you don't procreate cause a retard like you is bound to make some braindead offsprings. >>284447241Oh yes, he cared so much that he forgot she existed for years after that. You hinatafags are even more annoying than sakurafags. It's all cause Sakura reminds you of that girl who never gave two shits about you and you wish there was a girl like Hinata somewhere watching you from some corner being in love with you. It's absolutely pathetic how you'd pretend dogshit writing ending was justified with the biggest of reaches and copes just so you can keep fantasizing that some girl might love you like that.
>>284441418An argument could be made that Jugo and Suigetsu are there to handle fodder and Karins the tracker, but they bareky get to play those roles
>>284446708>It wouldn't because Hinata would still be a side-character and baiting isn't development.Except Kishimoto did what he did for the sole purpose of trolling, he would rather get his kicks off his audience over writing a better story but you think Hinata being a side character would stop him from doing such thing?
>>284447480>P-parts of the manga I dont like aren't canon!!!!Shut up woman
>>284441860Alright, this is neat and wacky. Somehow I'd like to see more Ai colouring for giggles.
>>284447210>Naruto should be ok tier or highernah
>>284447597What's this
>>284447611The village gets destroyed in Part 3
>>284447480>He would have gone apeshit for any of his friends.Did not happen with Neji and Fukasaku, Madara also stabbed Sakura and he barely even showed emotion. Ask yourself why Kishi had him react that way precisely over her.>he cared so much that he forgot she existed for years after thatOne of the novels actually says they stayed quite close and meeting each other prior to The Last.>>284447506From keeping things intriguing and not confirming the ships until the end? Your point is still dumb and misses the forest in the trees.
>>284447625There is no part 3.
>>284447646>From keeping things intriguingSince when is ship bait intriguing?
>>284419383
>>284447732Needs to be flatter
>>284447699Did you miss the thousands of messages and debates about the shipping wars worldwide? Intrigue always boosts popularity and sales. Kishimoto played this brilliantly.
>>284447832But NaruSaku ship baiting never relied too much on Sakura's heroine status, she never does anything of value in those until she manually Naruto's heart.Not only has Kishimoto already said he doesn't even really view Sakura as a real main character (compared to the rest of Team 7) but Hinata is also a chunin, she technically doesn't need to only appear along side her genin team, if Kishi wanted, Tsunade could just asign her with Team 7 on every mission.
>>284441507More like an Ultimate Ninja Storm (TM) to me…
>>284441726It’s been Itachis thing since his intro
>>284442719Stone had two too
>>284447510You know, that would have had a bigger impact if you posted it on my earlier comment. Now you just look like a limpdick retard who can't form a response to what's in front of him. >>284447646Neji who died in the war when Naruto had full control of the kyubi and Fukasaku whom he knew for like a month. Totally the same as seeing one of your friends get stabbed right in front of you while you're unable to move due to your own weakness. And it doesn't matter why Kishi did that you retard. Using "muh kishi did it" as an argument is braindead. We're discussing the story we're reading and the characters we know about, not what kishi did or didn't do. He'd go apeshit for sny of his friends in that situation and you gotta be utterly stupid to deny that. And novels aren't canon. Nothing except the manga counts. There were so many wasted chapters filled with pages of boring bullshit that Kishi could have spared a few pages for Naruto and Hinata to have a meaningful interaction here and there. If you need shit like novels and movies to justify something that was completely ignored by the manga, then that something was written badly. You can like Naruto ending up with the big titty princess but that won't magically make their relationship properly built up in the series they were created in.
>>284443667Who dis big crybaby
>>284447457>I'm just stroking my shit I'm horny as fuck man I'm a freak man like for real
>>284447625>>284447648The Blank Period is Part 3. Boruto Next Generations is Part 4. Two Blue Vortex is Part 5
>>284441485You forgot to color this one.
>>284441726steez
>>284447241Naruto always cares about injustice right in front of him. Take tsunade retrieval arc or land of waves arc for example. He was putting his life on the line fighting Gaara and the main motivation during it was protecting Sakura
>>284442745>>284442719The bijuu were sold off, any absurdly rich daimyo could have got one for their ninja village.
>>284448140a very strong, hardworking ninja
>>284448126>We're discussing the story we're reading and the characters we know about, not what kishi did or didn't do.Kishimoto knows more about his story than you do you autistic faggot. It was always obvious NaruHina was happening and your trash ship NaruSaku was treated like a joke. Stop shitting up these threads with your illiteracy.
>>284441507Is Itachi the greatest aura farmer in all of anime?
>>284448834>Kishimoto knows more about his story Nigga can't even get his own timeline right, lol.
>>284448896One thing Kishimoto has always been consistent about is his spiteful treatment of NaruSakufags and their garbage shit.
>>284448928And there you go acting like Kishimoto speaks for you. I'm pretty sure Kishimoto isn't emotionally invested in "spitting" a ship like you are.
>>284448951>spitting*spiting
>>284441726he can't see shit without it anymore
>>284441507I'm glad Kisame doesn't die for a few more arcs and got to become an even cooler character. After how Kakuzu/Hidan got speedran you'd be worried that Itachi and his partner would both die in this arc.
>>284442538
>>284448528The Blank Period is Part 2.5
>>284449955I always expected Kisame to die before Itachi. I was genuinely surprised he outlived Itachi and knew about Obito's real plan.
>>284441445>He's still...?didn't sasuke literally say he only cared about killing itachi when they met up like 20 chapters ago? why is naruto acting so shocked
Tayuya reincarnation
New tier list
>>284450446No way is Sakura a dead fish and not Hinata.
>>284450489>2 children>1 childMaybe if the frigid bitch put out more Sasugay wouldn't be so gay
>>284450543It's BECAUSE Sasuke is a flaming gay.
idc what u losers say, Suigetsu is one of the best characters in the entire series, and it's a shame he's relegated to Oro's assistant in Bolt, instead of going back to the Mist to recreate the 7 Swords (only makes sense given he didn't leave the village of his own volition, his brother was the prodigy of the previous gen, and the Kage is an ex 7NS and would presumably care about that). there's no one else whose role is to outright say how stupid the show gets (questioning what the Kabuto Sasuke ship would be called while Sasuke seems to be dead and being absorbed by Kabuto)
>>284442645Either Sasuke is genuinely autistic, or living underground with Orochimaru and Kabuto for 3 years fucked up his perception of women. That's the only excuse I can think of as to why he's being this obtuse around Karin.
>>284450571If she knew how to suck good dick he wouldn't be so gay. We're talking about byakugan chakra seeking nerve point dick sucking here. I'm talking controlled chakra to any part of her body. If anything Naruto is gay for not having 8 kids already.Also this list assumes you're not sasugay or any other main character otherwise karin would be beyond the chart and hinata would be higher for narutohttps://tiermaker.com/create-xy/all-naruto-and-shippuden-characters-244770

>>284446437>Naruto is a battle manga>doesn't draw any battles
>>284451138Objectively good decision since Oro hasn't gone on to harm anyone and created one of the most important Konoha ninja in Mitsuki (being the singular sage character left, and being able to do it without any preparation, is pretty important when you're fighting otsutsuki)I wish they'd include Oro/Kabu in the ongoing series, but Ike isn't even willing to write Kakashi in, so that's far cry. Oro especially atp is essentially a Hashirama clone with all of Kabuto's upgrades, he should be incredibly OP
>>284451122Technically not kinda, he's unwilling to accept the title of 8th in the first couple chapters. Who knows if he's even gonna last, esp after Mamushi blackop is undoubtedly gonna kill a few people in the village, alongside Bort appearing
>>284449955>>284450105Didn't he just do nothing a while longer before being speedran?
>>284450446Seems reasonable to me.
>>284451216>since Oro hasn't gone on to harm anyoneIn the anime he straight up minced a motherfucker.
>>284441445Thank you OP.This chapter is the reason I say Suigetsu is the best of the trio, despite ironically his motivation being mocked by Karin it's the only true one, Jugo's is an exercize in absurdism while Karin is just standard kishi female, Suigetsu has real interests outside of Sasuke.
>>284451253He's more official than Danzo was. Naruto is assumed dead, unlike Tsunade who was just in a coma. And Shikamaru has been flat out acting as Hokage longer.
>>284451420That person was evil and worked for Kara (Nu-Akatsuki). So he did a good thing there.
>>284451430Jugo's motivation straight up involves another character he knew suddenly appearing in a place he shouldn't and Sasuke telling Jugo Orochimaru is merely dead and not saying he KILLED him. Despite having 3-4 chapters dedicated to introducing Jugo, he is the most bullshit reason to join Sasuke. You can tell Kishimoto was writing this character on the fly due to the editorial mandate of giving Sasuke a team.
>>284447590>>284451138I asked it to correct the color palette and it did corrected it but at what cost...>>284451105Just free gpt?

>>284451575>>284451651Also>we'll run into Sasuke eventuallyWell, they did run into the zombo duo. The plan may work twice!
I just remembered that people used to think that Suigetsu was somehow that guy who was Sai's brother.
>>284442818>>284449667is the implication supposed to be that the sharingan restores normal eyesight, or is he only capable of seeing chakra in a sea of darkness
>>284451808it's more like sharingan is a static bonus to eyesight in addition to all its other abilities
>>284451821but what is he actually SEEING?
>>284451420>>284451498Yeah the one person he attacked is a demonstration of why it was good to pardon him. He killed an Inner with ease, which puts him at a very high tier asset even without his value as a scientist/with making and keeping alive Mitsuki>>284451472I wouldn't count Danzo as a Hokage either so I agree. Shika is way more of one than Danzo regardless, but he's pretty explicit in not counting himself as such, and I doubt he's gonna ever assume the role in title, if he lasts that long anyway
>>284451750I thought Kabuto was gonna be Sai's brother lol. Makes sense with Kabuto also being a blackop orphan, having silver hair, and would've slotted in as an emotional foil for Sai in the bridge arc
>>284448709>He was putting his life on the line fighting Gaara and the main motivation during it was protecting SakuraHe was fucking around through the thing and even pulling the thousand years of pain on Gaara until SASUKE told him to lock in after seeing him willing to sacrifice himself for her.
guys, I have a confession to make...I kinda like Sasuke on this rereadjust knowing that he's going to pratfall his way to a complete victory makes all the tension disappear and I can just appreciate him aura farmingto say nothing of the fact that he's the only character working towards a goal that the reader can understandno matter what Itachi must be stopped, Sasuke has had the same goal since we first met him, you can argue it's wrong but it's all he knows and he's moving towards ithe's also not biting off more than he can chew, his goal is not to topple the akatsuki, he didn't try and convince the village to help him with Itachi, he knew they wouldn't do it the way he wants so he's going to grab whoever he can and just ambush his brother while he's out running errandssasuke is probably the person who knows the most about Itachi's skillset in the entire world, if anybody could ambush him and not get instantly taken out, it's himI dunno I'm kind of rooting for the guy, you go man, you oneshot offscreen all your fights speedblitzing everyone like you've done three times already, I already know there's barely a good fight left to be had in this series, so I won't be disappointed again.he's my chubby little guy! my little chubster! Chubsuke Uchubha!
>>284451575>Rinnegan Hebi Sasukedoes the story even change?what, he wins his fights even HARDER?
>>284452028
>>284451530I will never forgive Kishi because as a kid I actually thought Hebi was kind of cool, I really liked Suigetsu's design, we didn't know Jugo was such a wet fart and his hype was kind of cool, and before the weird fetish shit and further jobbing, Karin seemed like she could be alt-Sakura which at least is an improvement over the original
>>284450806>not getting blown by my wifechart is flawed
>>284451750early naruto theories were wild. there were also people who thought pain was minato.
>>284451307...he has probably the best akatsuki non-Pain fight
>>284452093In the anime? My 15 year old memory from reading the manga was him getting oneshot (twice).
>>284452103anon that's how everybody loses their fightsnaruto is basically diet bleach in that you reveal a brand new power or element to your power and instantly win your fight in one shot, somehow kubo takes a lot of shit for that but kishi doesn't write much more interestinglyat least luffy has to land a bunch of hits in his new forms, he never oneshots anyone
>>284452059Kishi's biggest fuck up for me was not letting Suigetsu fight Kisame after all that hype. Even if neither of them killed the other, we could've gotten a cool 1 on 1 sword fight while Itachi vs Sasuke was going on, rather than the Konoha teams getting trolled by Tobi.
>>284452087Pain in the shadows straight up resembled the 4th Hokage before Kishi finally decided on his design.I remember theories back then even saying Obito or Madara was the leader of Akatsuki, and they ended up being right, except neither were THE leader guy we were seeing talking with Akatsuki.And then there was one that said Zetsu was actually the secret mastermind.
>>284452143i remember when people thought there was no way tobi was obito. it would've been too obvious because of the name resemblance and the haircuts being similar. kishi is such a hack.
>>284452028this is gay but Sasuke is def better after you've gone through the series. He's very hard to like until you see him go through everything, and that's half the fun. I genuinely was more mad that I've ever been at a show when sauce decided to try to kill Naruto after Kaguya, and that's a sign of good writing imo
>>284452123But what was the good part of the fight then? It's likely I'm forgetting something, but my memory is him making a huge water bubble and fusing with samehada to become an even more sharky boy, then nothing happens (probably I'm forgetting something here) and then he throws a super bullshit attack that's counter by Guys even more bullshit attack.
>>284452159People acted a similar way with Minato being Naruto's dad. Some would say them looking alike was supposed to be a coincidence, or that he was actually Naruto's brother, or even going as far as to say Naruto was just a failed genetic clone of the Yondaime.One theory that stuck out to me was about Jiraiya. Stating his "source" on Akatsuki was Akatsuki themselves. He was actually working for them and conspiring against Naruto (I think it was even assumed that "Jiraiya did a poor job training Naruto on purpose").
>>284452134No way was Kishi going to have another fight even get limelight while "The Long-waited Ultimate Battle Between the Uchiha Brothers" was happening.
I just realized the activation mechanic of 8 inner gates is just like shifting a car's gearsIf you go from 1st gate to 2nd gate and so on incrementally, shit will open smoothlyBut if you go from base straight to 6th gate, you will break and dislocate your bones
>>284452303That never happens though.Btw, how can Lee be unable to manipulate chakra, but be a genius at manipulating the gates that control chakra flow?
>>284452357SSS tier A+ writingA true genius of our time
>>284448126>Neji who died in the war when Naruto had full control of the kyubiWe were talking about his way of reacting since his transformarions with Kurama responded to his emotions, dumbass.>And it doesn't matter why Kishi did that you retard.Not an argument, retard.>He'd go apeshit for sny of his friends in that situation and you gotta be utterly stupid to deny that.You failed to provide proof.>And novels aren't canon.The blank period ones are.>Kishi could have spared a few pages for Naruto and Hinata to have a meaningful interaction here and there.He already did, you just decided they were worthless even though three of them were mayor moments of growth for Naruto and necessary for the plot to continue.>If you need shit like novels and movies to justify something that was completely ignored by the manga, then that something was written badly.I already told you the build up was in the manga, but it seems you can't read.
>>284452357People like lee are just born with 0 nature affinity, the fact he can't into ninjutsu is just the byproduct of it.
>>284452192You're confusing two fights lel. First one is that, followed by getting decapitated by A and B. After he stashes away he gets noticed by Kurama Cloak Naruto, escapes out, then gets beat by 7 gate Guy (then later kills himself during interrogation to get intel to Obito). First fight ends suddenly bc it's a Zetsu clone meant to die, otherwise he prob beats B unless A gets there fast enough
People call Hebi useless but Sasuke would have immediately died against Bee and the Five Kages if it weren't for them.
>>284448834Whether it was obvious or not is absolutely irrelevant to the fact that it was terribly implemented and you've got to be a complete and utter retard. It was badly written and it wasn't built up at all no matter how much your retarded ass tries to convince itself otherwise. Just keep swinging to narusaku to ignore that fact, I guess that makes faggots like you feel better. >>284450887What, is criticizing dogshit writing limited to just fights and shit? You must be retarded if you think any other facet of a decade old manga is somehow wort discussing more over shipfaggotry. It's all on the same level, now pull your nose out of your ass. >>284452496And you completely ignored a big factor in the reaction that I mentioned. Neji didn't die while Naruto was helplessly watching from the ground and being unable to do anything. The built up desperation from watching one of his friends putting their life on the line against a vastly superior enemy while he couldn't do jack shit to help was what caused that reaction in the end. Not some deep romantic feelings he had for a girl whose existence he forgot about even before the fight with Pain was over. Again, you're absolutely braindead if you think Naruto wouldn't go apeshit for any of his friends in that situation. Like completely and utterly fucked in the head retarded. Huffing glue level of retarded that you keep acting like that's one of the big, amazingly written built ups for the end ship when it amounts to absolutely nothing and goes ignored five minutes later. Just like the rest of those "moments" were. Every one of them resulted in Naruto completely ignoring her afterwards. Not a single time did he show any kind of romantic affection towards her. She nearly FUCKING DIED and he couldn't even check up on her. The fact you can see THAT and still act like Naruto was harbouring some deep feelings towards her at any point in the manga is quite literally coping of the highest measure.
Hey stole this away from you anons.
>>284448126>forming a response to nigger who thinks the manga isnt canonThe problem with you is you're delusional.
>>284452909Good morning saar
>>284452159Obito has no in-universe reason to take drastic measures to hide who he is. a mask and name change was enough, the only people who could've possibly clocked him were the Konoha jonin, none of whom (save Kakashi) had any realistic possibility of crossing paths with him. Obito were certainly aware of this. He probably could've gone maskless even around the other Akatsuki members.
>>284452909Sakura didn't deserve Naruto.
>>284452982Correct.
>>284452996very few girls did, really. so many golddiggers and toxic whores in that universe.
>>284453025Haha just like irl
>>284453025>>284452982Nta and Im not a shipfag ,but the one thing you cant disagree on is that the only true close friend sakura has aside from ino probably is naruto she has no other friends aside from them maybe shizune or tsunade.
Worst father award
>>284453282the war arc is so fucking stupid man
>>284453312War saga*
>>284453312It's the biggest slog to get through every time I feel like reading it again
>>284448896What does this have to do with character personalities?
What executive said that Hinata is allowed to have boobs again?
>>284453473Still far too small
>>284450543>>284450645>Blaming Sakura for Sasuke's homosexualitySasuke was the dead fish of the two btw,.he let Sakura do her thing while laying in bed.
>>284453282>>284453332War arc's highs >>>>>>

>>284452852You need to have sex my guy.
>>284453312Madara is the only good thing about the war arc
>>284453511Nah, he genjutsu'd her to think the sex was amazing.
>>284452982>implying
>>284453521She was only a step behind them in shippudenThat's still big
>>284453553>>284453511Another W for NARDO.Imagine the hot fucking sex naruto had with the eager and desperate hinata holding her urges for so long.Man straight up back to back.
>>284453618Yugito atleast a tier up.
>>284453618Fu isn't flat
>>284453680Can you prove it?
>>284453618Do we know for sure that Kaguya is flat? We only ever see her wear multiple layers of heavy and flowing robes.
>>284441337>my goal is to kill an akatsuki called Itachi UchihaOro and Sasuke’s goals aligned with each other tho…why did Kishi decide to kill and humiliate Oro?
>>284453712No. I just know. Trvst me.

>>284453765It's so fucking funny that there's not a single entry in that list that doesn't involve the Kage, Obito, Naruto/Sasuke, or Madara. Meaning anything involving all the other characters who aren't them and all the edo tensei zombies is low points.
>>284453765Why did kishi make Naruto's 9 tails transformations look so retarded compared to the kino designs before? He's just glowing and yellow/orange now and loses all his unique identifying features. Oh it was so it was easier to draw like super saiyan. Hack.
>>284452982Naruto is the opposite of a catch.He's an overpowered moron with a low sense of responsibility.
>>284441314>dream teamSasuke knows he's the dps carry here, everyone else is just a tank or support/heals.
>>284453618>breast tier list>smallest tits are double 'D's Fix it.
>>284452852>It's all on the same level No it's not. Caring this much over romances in a shonen makes you look like a massive faggot. Discussing fights in a shonen, on the other hand, is less gay.
>>284453765what follows after his death means nothing to me
>>284453875KCM2 looks cool THOUGH
>>284453875I'll give you a hard pill to swallow. The end of Naruto was a promotional campaign to start reading One Piece
>>284454035the final gay jutsu...
>>284454074Then it failed since One Piece took off outside Asia during and after Covid.
>>284453590It was Naruto who decided to simp over a girl that didn't want him.
>>284454035>i got outsmarted by the author's pet so i'm going to blow myself up REEEEEEEEEEdeidarabros...
>>284454140Based moveDeidara is a true ninja
>>284453528Guess where you are right now my guy.>>284454028It's all the same lol. Discussing one part of a manga is not more or less gay than discussing another part of it. However, trying to make a distinction between what part is or isn't gay to discuss is gay.
Speaking of gay, who else is a confirmed fujo?
>>284454153Tobi...
>>284454154Nta but it's definitely not the same. You're attempting to make something minor into a prominent thing. Please stop shitting up the thread with it.
>>284454050It looks dumb as fuck. More random black lines doesn't change anything
>>284454229Nah. Six Paths is the shit looking one
>>284454185Something that is quite literally one of the biggest things of the final chapter is something minor? Lol.And it definitely is the same. It doesn't matter that it's something you personally don't care about.
>>284454366the final chapter that you don't consider canon you mean?>it's something you personally don't care about.Its something the literal author also didn't care about and directly said this is a BATTLE manga. Please read something else that heavily focuses on romance and leave us be.
>>284443032>>284443667Is that a pokemon
>>284454409>Its something the literal author also didn't care about and directly said this is a BATTLE manga. Please read something else that heavily focuses on romance and leave us be.nta and I'd defend kishimoto for his pairings but as this is a battle manga we didn't get any cool battles involving boruto or salad SO WHAT'S THE FUCKING POINT
>>284453765I don't care for any of this.
>>284454462>boruto or saladYou'll need to ask Ikemoto for that. Maybe the movie had something I don't remember desu.
>>284454462Money, money was the point.
>>284454050>>284454315>KCM1>KCM2>Six pathsHow many fucking new forms did Naruto get in the last arc.
>>284454171According to Ultimate Ninja Storm, every female character aside from Hinata, Temari and possibly Tenten is one.
>>284454171>>284455011Maybe Yugito lost because she got distracted shipping Kakuzu and Hidan, especially once she saw the tentacles.
>>284454865None. By the Kaguya arc he had no new power ups.
>>284454409Lol whatever I think about the final chapter is absolutely irrelevant to what's presented in it. And again, saying that Kishi didn't care about it when it's quite obvious that he did just makes you look retarded. If he really didn't care, he wouldn't have put even bare minimum of romance in his manga but he did, plenty of it at that, so that disproves his own words.
>>284455464>umm actually kishi is lying when he said he didn't care about romance! Its actually a major element of the manga!!!!Mental illness.
>>284455051Kaguya is part of the war, as Zetsu wasn't dealt with yet.Sasuke vs Naruto is arguably not part of the war though.
