What really annoys me looking back is, in my opinion, Hidan/Kakuzu->This arc->The next arc make for some top tier content and honestly at the time, I think people were right to be hyped at the direction the story was going. It's just that after the next arc, it starts going downhill pretty fast

The Akatsuki and rain factions setup was superb and honestly should have been the endgame for Naruto as a whole. This and the pain arc wraps up the Akatsuki and throws them to the wayside.

Yes, Akatsuki not being the actual big bads but just the intro to the actual big bad of which there are like literally 3 more after him was not a good idea in the long run. It neutered how Part 1 ended with "Akatsuki is coming for Naruto" feeling like the biggest threat

I thought this reveal was peak disrespect in this manga. We had the spiky-haired leader in the shadows since the end of Part I and there was so much hype and theories of who he could be and how powerful he is and when he's finally revealed he immediately gets upstaged and designated as some mere high ranked goon in the same chapter by ANOTHER FUCKING UCHIHA taking center stage as the true right after we had that excessive Uchiha wank in that fight with Deidara. It had absolutely no class. Kishimoto should've held this bullshit off for later after Itachi died and then revealed the true mastermind to at least let Pain have his assumed leader role for himself.

IIRC people reacted more to kushina’s name being dropped than minato being soft confirmed by tsunade. Most people knew at this point that the fourth was related to Naruto in some way because of looks.
>>
>>284818684
>>284818896
This is another time Minato is mentioned before we are shown the "leader" of Akatsuki. I genuinely think Kishimoto wanted people to believe the two were one and the same.
>>
>>284819778
Aside from having a really cool design and powers, Tobi/Obito was just not an interesting, shocking or good reveal to drag it all the way to the war arc. If you really want this mysterious masked mystery guy, don't make him a prominent role just yet and don't make him the leader of the Akatsuki for crying out loud. Pain should have been the leader, but the story can show us that he's working with this shady guy on the side which we have seen pop up here and there randomly. And still if you're gonna keep his face hidden, the mask off moment has to be a damn good one.

I don't wanna make a new thread for this so i'll ask it here.
Do you recommend watching the anime?
I've heard that the anime has it's issues but it's not like DBZ where it's basically a entire separate continuity or OP where the pacing ruins the timeskip
all the fanmade manga cuts supposedly have their own set of issues

Naruto and Sakura would never have made sense no matter how many parallels they had with Minato and Kushina because Naruto and Sakura's relationship is nothing like Minato and Kushina's
>>
>>284820070
>they are litrally a parallel but they're nothing alike

>>
>>284820004
Yea. The anime expands and makes most fights better than in the manga. Just avoid filler episode if you're not interested. There are guides on that if you search.
>>
>>284820004
You could probably get away with watching the anime and skipping the fillers. However, the pacing is still pretty questionable. Not One Piece bad but once you get to Shippuden you'll be able to tell where they are trying to save time

I'm going to be honest, Pain's official reveal after all the silhouette shenanigans for all of Part 2 so far, only for the REAL leader of the Akatsuki to be introduced pages later blindsided the fuck out of me in this daily. I had genuinely thought there was some time in-between and that an even more shadowy leader above Pain was a genuine shock, instead of just regular ass information being told to us.
This and the complete pointlessness of the Tobi persona entirely make me think the plans for Pain and Obito were different originally, and Kishi just didn't care enough to really make the transition from old plan to what we got very neat.
>>
>>284820041
Naruto and Sakura's relationship is not "almost the exact same story" as Minato and Kushina. It is very different. Minato says that Sakura reminds him a bit of Kushina, after Naruto jokingly agrees that she is his girl friend but later on at a serious moment Naruto implies that he didn't find someone like Kushina because it doesn't always go that way. Their relationship is more like Jiraiya and Tsunade, the difference being Sakura's love interest is still alive and there is already someone introduced who romantically loves Naruto
>>
>>284820041
>Naruto is a woman now? that's some mental gymnastics
Explain how Naruto parallels Minato outside of being blonde and using rasengan.

>>284819280
Judging from the whores he likes to date his type are degenerate Bimbo women with big tits that acts as if they were inocent little girls. A flat chest housewife as Naruto's mom gives him the iick. Maybe his taste is Jiraya coping that he lost Tsunade.

Problem is that Naruto is a lot more like Kushina than Minato so NaruSaku would basically be 2 Kushinas. Both Naruto and Sakura are too headstrong and stubborn to ever back down in an argument resulting in a lot of conflict between the two.

she is pregnant here. Also in the anime they amplifed the tits of every women except sakura lol

>>284820100
Retard. False parallels in your head aside since Minato and Jiraiya/Tsuande have alluded to Naruto being a male Kushina personality wise, the dynamic of Naruto and Sakura’s relationship is nothing like Minato and Kushina. For one, Kushina never hit Minato and treated him like an annoyance when they were children.
>>
>>284820070
Nigger they had more development than endgame cannon.
If u read manga then you'll find moments of romance from the beginning between Sakura and Naruto. He complimented her forehead in Sasuke's henge when she dreamt about it in chapter 3. Just as his father complimented Kushina's hair, which she hated.
In the Zabuza arch, Sakura saved him from Zabuza's sword and she asks herself " what is that feeling? It's Naruto" when he gives his speech.
In the chunin arc, Sakura wants to give up the exam for Naruto's dream. Calls Sasuke a coward when he wanted to leave Naruto in the forest of death.
Naruto in chapter 236, when he couldn't get Sasuke back, says he fell in love with her smile and wants to protect her smile. This was described very nicely.

In the early shippuuden she focused her care on Naruto. When she found out Akatsuki are after him she decided to protect him no matter what.
When she found out Jinchuuriki dies after bijuu extraction, she worried about Naruto's state and overall tried to cheer him up.
During bridge encounter vs Orochimaru she tried to sacrifice own life to get Naruto out of 4 tails state. Later she lied about the wounds Naruto gave her to comfort Naruto.
Later she told Yamato that she feels bad she cant do more fo Naruto and only can do a little things for him. Then Yamato told her that in reality she... This was probably the biggest implication of romantic love.
Even when she told Naruto about her loving him, she did so out of care for his mental health. She knew this would probably destroy their friendship yet her feelings for Naruto was deep enough to sacrifice that just to make Naruto feel better.
And in the end chunin exam part came to full circle when Sakura admitted that Naruto's dreams are real and she is ready to do everything to make them real. Then she literally gave him the kiss of life while literally holding his heart in her hand.

Naruto and Sakura would never be endgame.
Kishimoto is very comfortable writing a male and female friendship, because He doesn't get awkward about it like Naruto and Hinata.
But in doing so, he accidentally made them a more compelling endgame because they can actually have chemistry and we want to see hinata share more screen time and moments as to sakura.

She knows that Sakura isn't that strong.
Naruto is, at the end of the day, a jinchuriki with more chakra than the rest of the village put together.
Sakura is, at the end of the day, still a worse version of herself with lower base stats.

It is reasonable to think that both could do the job.
Kakashi is a tier below the Sannin, but he's otherwise a legend in his own right already. He'd be a solid choice if push came to shove.
Naruto has the most potential in the village's history.

Sakura does latter apparently match or surpass Tsunade, but that isn't obviously going to happen in the same way that the others are obviously powerful.

Sasuke could activate his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan to cast a powerful, wide-area genjutsu on multiple targets simultaneously, trapping them in an illusion that manipulates their cranial nerves. Within this genjutsu, he would specifically target the olfactory senses, creating a hyper-realistic perception of an overwhelming, foul odor originating from his own flatulence. Since genjutsu fully controls all five senses and victims experience illusions as indistinguishable from reality until released, everyone affected would be forced to "smell" it with no way to escape the sensation.

Give her more development and have naruto acknowledge and communicate with her.
The reason this conversation still goes on and on even after the final is because of the inconsistency in his writing.

Look at bleach compared to this.

The kage doesn't have to be the strongest ninja per say but nobody's gonna stick Chuunin Chuckie as the leader of a village.
It's not purely a bureaucratic role because the kage is expected to be able to fight and defend their village, same as anyone else.

and you now realise Jiraiya's entire personality was just him coping with having lost the love of his life. the drinking, the partying, the womanising, the refusal to build connections, all of it was just him running away from a lifetime of depression. He knew full well he was going to die against Pain, and he wanted it to happen. He had had enough of life.

Nah he legitimately was devoted to this prophecy shit and traveled the world for it. In fact he taught the rain orphans long after he got rejected by Tsunade. It sounds interesting on paper and maybe on some level it's true but not more than that.

none of the Konoha 11 girls are tomboys. Sakura is just a bitch, there's a difference.
the most 'tomboyish' of the classic Naruto cast is probably Anko. Tenten is kinda halfway there but not really. Tsunade was a bit of a tomboy when she was young.

at multiple points the series makes note of the fact just how close love and hate are. the Uchiha's entire schtick as a clan is just how passionate and emotional they are, which causes them to flip from extreme love to extreme hate at the drop of a hat. so obviously going the other way isn't a stretch.

The senju married into every other clan, this is what the will of fire means.
Even Kiba is a Senju and thinks it's relevant to tell Naruto about Senju history as both their clans are derived from them. You can bet your ass that Hiruzen, Minato and Kakashi are also Senju.
When they talk about the will of fire it comes from a place of smugness, that their ancestors 'gave up' their clan to become part of something greater. The Uchiha were unable to do this because their identity is tied to bloodline purity.
>>
>>284819683
Constantly wondering if he was actually dead or if it was all a trick. Would be an interesting character concept in a different series, a big, talked up villain gets genuinely taken by surprise and killed easily as a result, and then their killer just has to live constantly filled with the doubt, the feeling that it can't have actually been that easy, never getting the catharsis.
>>
>>284825906

This and Hero's Come Back. That's a personal favorite since it's a perfect tonal shift for Shippuden imo, also really sets up the Akatsuki.

Itachi's the plot device while Shika's more like his quasi self-insert
>>
>>284825935
Hiruzen was born not long after the village was founded, and was on personal speaking terms with the founder of the village. Konoha isn't some thousand-year-old ancient ancestral village, it is a sophomoric Old West boom town that hasn't even existed for a century yet by the time Naruto begins.

This translation is fucked. "You don't really believe that.

I just checked another translation and Jiraya's line is effectively the same, but Tsunade responds with "Hah...what's with you, acting all cool. You can't even get rejected without us women..." which I think is still a little odd, but does make more sense to me.

Itachi doesn't make any sense as a character. Sasuke tells us Itachi was crying in part 1, so that means the twist was planned out since then, but the execution makes no sense at all. Itachi being a spy never matters. Itachi comes back to traumatize Sasuke and push him into Orochimaru's arms for no reason. Itachi is horribly written so Aizen is better.

Sakura was not as important to the fight as Chiyo was and she would have been killed had Sasori taken it seriously and not committed suicide

Shikamaru knew the guys abilities and had prep time, plus Hidan is weak as shit

Naruto used one attack and it took out Kakuzu in his strongest form, and I wouldn't say he was tired since each heart basically reset him.

Not saying he was kage level but it's definitely more impressive than what Sakura and Shikamaru did

having individually famous members doesn't make an entire clan famous, nobody would consider the Might clan noteworthy.

Look at Danzo, he was by all accounts an extraordinary ninja who just happened to have an even more extraordinary teammate.
and for the record, Kakashi's dad was a pariah in the village.
>>
>>284827777
Kakashi spent a substantial amount of time openly suicidal after killing her, and the only reason he didn't go full scorched earth is because he had a support group to back him up. Obito instead was at the mercy of a psychopath who manipulated and played with his emotions 24/7 until he snapped.

I think him getting a good end in the afterlife was bad writing. all he did was contribute towards fixing the problems he himself caused, thereby resetting things to what they were before he got involved. in other words, merely putting himself back at a clean slate. maybe it was just a hallucination in his dying moments.

>>
>>284831264
I'm not sure I understand wtf was he thinking, as is Gaara has no reason NOT to go on a rampage and hold the Shukaku inside. Why would he hold it at bay? "Gaara is useless", dude how about you give him a single reason why he should try.

If you're a walking nuke and can't keep yourself in check when the one guy you thought cared for you tries to assassinate you, tells you he always hated you, and tell you that your mother never loved you, then it means you should be put down. In all seriousness Gaara was a murderous schizo even before this point and Rasa was giving Gaara a test.

That doesn't really say Gaara lost control when Kankuro saw it for the first time. It could've just been that he was in a mission that required him to voluntarily transform.

Tsunade tells him in the present moment when he's going to fight Pain that he taught Naruto the Rasengan but that was years ago, Jobraiya never in 2+ years teach Naruto another technique, still Kage Bunshin and Rasengan. It's so shit, he didn't even know his Chakra Nature or the fact that Sage and Nature chakra is even a thing. what the fuck. He knew the Akatsuki were after Nardo to kill him 2 years earlier, Itachi showed up at his door ffs
>>
>>284826258
From your descriptions Aizen sounds like a better character.
t. never read Bleach.
>>
>>284832630
Ok? Tsunade still never referenced the timeskip.

>>284832671
I mentioned that Jiraiya taught Rasengan before the timeskip. what is your point?

Aizen was retconned to behind literally everything in the series.

You know that Naruto was training Rasengan when he got the necklace from Tsunade. She was there when he hit Kabuto with the Rasengan. and 2+ years pass he doesn't know anything new while Itachi and Kisame where knocking on his door 2 years earlier, now they have to retcon the shadow clones so that he learns Sage Mode. it's just stupid if you think about it that he trained with Jiraiya and Tsunade was already Hokage and never told him "Yo you came back after 2 years and he still doesn't know that his clones retain memories and he has wind nature chakra?" it's so stupid

Tsunade mentions the Rasengan, my comment was about Jiraiya not teaching Naruto any new techniques when they had so much time. What is mentioned was that he once hit Jiraiya when he went 4-tails and left a mark on his stomach but Naruto didn't learn how to control the Kyuubi or anything so what was the point?
