Looking back, why was the ending and sequel for this series so controversial?Was it truly godawful?
>>287724879What? The ending was great>Naruto is Hokage>married to Hinata>has kids>world at peaceMore ending should be like this.
The ending wasn't controversial at all. The sequel isn't controversial either. We all agree it sucks, there is no controversy.
>>287724879When people talk shit about the ending they mean the 2nd half of the war arc>Obito is a pawn of madara who is a pawn of Zetsu who is a pawn of Kaguya
In general the story just had too many fallen plot points and sloppy character build up. The world didnt make sense and the alien shit at the last minute was stupid.
>>287724879>alien shit ending>zoomers think the ending is goodi cant wait for csm part 2 to get an anime adaptation
>>287726016Thst wasn't the ending. It wasn't even the penultimate chapter retard. 700 was the ending its just >>287725484
>>287725984>>287726016>muh aliensEven JJKfags aren't complaining about their alien ending, why are Narutofags so butthurt by an old shonen trope?>noooo it doesn't fit the themeKAGUYA doesn't fit the theme of a ninja story? That's a classic Jap fairytale from the period, it fits perfectly fine
>>287726082>the last chapter is le happy ending so all the trash plotlines and characters doesnt count
>>287726127>KAGUYA doesn't fit the theme of a ninja story? That's a classic Jap fairytale from the period, it fits perfectly finekek
The ending is controversial because it's tone deaf corporate nonsense where Naruto and Sasuke, despite being the strongest people in the world, have to pretend they aren't gay. Sakura has a pretend marriage that an 11 year old can tell is an abject lie, and Naruto treats going home to his family as an obligation even while he's miserable at the hokage office. It's like Kishimoto was told what the pairings would be and he wrote how they would work with a gun to his head, which is dysfunctionally and without genuine chemistry. A decade later we are waiting for the real ending and sequel.
>>287726152lmao
>>287726127>KAGUYA doesn't fit the theme of a ninja story?Yes she didn't fit in Naruto. Maybe if she was some spirt or god it would fit a bit better. It would still be trash.
>>287726169>Naruto treats going home to his family as an obligation even while he's miserable at the hokage officeNone of that happens in the chapter. Stop trying to add your fanfic.
>>287726220OP mentioned the sequel so I'm including that in my response, anon.
>>287726197>>287726152Enel is building a robot army on the moon, Goku is fighting an alien god of an alternative universe in a parallel timeline inside of a black hole, Itadori is helping aliens control the lifestream of planet Earth but KAGUYA is too much in a ninja story? You guys are too comfortable parroting an established narrative, you're not even trying to think it through
The ending was only "controversial" for shipperfags. For anyone that doesn't care about where characters stuck their peepee, it was just outright bad. But then again, so was the entire fucking manga past the end of the first arc.
>>287726269Well Im not. He gets character assassinated. The sequel also isnt controversial. Its rightly seen as worthless trash.
>>287726283>but KAGUYA is too much in a ninja story?Yes. Considering everything else that happened in Naruto Kaguya was way too far. Especially since it fucked over Madara was the main antagonist.
>>287724879Thanks!https://imgur.com/a/XKwJ4#0
>>287726127jjk ended?
>>287726367Foids are hilarious & insane
>>287724879i honestly think part 1 is very directionless in story and villains, and part 2 has a lot more focus and holds up better.
It has the worst ass pull last minute antagonist. I really can't think of any similar examples
>>287726367this is truly the greatest compilation in anime history. Sad there wasn't one for Attack on Titan.
>>287728246One piece
.
>>287725484None of that is good. Realistically we should have had>Naruto marrying Sakura>Shikamaru as Hokage>final fight is against someone cool like Madara instead of fucking lame ass Kaguya>no shitty next gen with shitty names like Bolt and Salad>no aliens>>287726127JJK's ending was so bad it made everyone forget that Deku works at McDonalds
>>287728499>Sad there wasn't one for Attack on Titan.Well, not beyond /a/ collages.
>>287725484
>>287726220Remember, kids, Naruto has enough chakra to fight in a war without stopping; if he wanted to be with his family, there's no way paperwork could stop him.
>>287725898Madara wasn't a pawn of Zetsu at least not conciously.
how does a grown man unironically think that all a leader does is dumb paperwork? How littel life experience could you possibly have? Naruto talking and giving sappy speeches is ironically closer to being a head of state
>>287730829>>Naruto marrying Sakura Absolutely not. She never liked him>Shikamaru as HokageRetarded faggot>>287731564
