This combination of super emotional aesthetic, while the most boring and inconsequential fanservice pandering is going on is kinda surreal.

>>288485320
The fanservice in this arc is so bad. It had the potential to be a story arc with real stakes, but the Five Kage Summit, which was the perfect setup for that, didn't pay off at all. It was a total letdown, but at least Heel Sasuke is one of the best things about the series.

So Hidan's immortality is unique among jashin followers right? But the ritual that shares pain seems to be a general thing in jashin faith.
Does that mean regular followers kill themselves when performing the ritual?

It’s perfect and nice since they are both 28 years old but lets be real here after the war i think kakashi needs a bimbo like samui or mei.

Let’s be realistic, in no universe is Sakura more popular than Naruto, Sasuke, and Kakashi worldwide. People could easily multivote and I remember Sakura fans pushing an entire campaign online to vote for her. Not to mention part of that poll was also to determine who would get a side manga drawn by Kishimoto, not just popularity.

i'd unironically be fine with more chapters. only reason to keep doing 1 is to keep making the same joke about op being a pedo. i mean, it IS funny but we can do more chapters. we can still joke about op being a pedo even with more chapters. plus he has other manga keeping him from the kids anyway.

it's somewhat interesting to see how gaara gets rated by the community. he's fairly popular overall but looking at western topics for best villains and such i don't usually see him get mentioned. or if he does he'll be decently rated but not usually at the top.
he seems liked more for becoming a good guy. and his good guy self seems more popular. looking outside of this general, obviously.
i usually see orochimaru, pain, madara, zabuza, and sasuke at the top.

but orochimaru has never been that popular in the eastern polls. early on, he'd get placed around 20th. this chapter he's around 40th.
but i think that much is pretty understandable since his best scenes are from the chuunin exams. he really just gets replaced and forgotten about.

for gaara, i just don't quite get the appeal of his good guy self other than "he went through massive development."
but i will just accept that i have an unpopular opinion about gaara. and he only really has a few bad/questionable scenes overall. also always been top 10 in polls since his introduction iirc. or close to the top 10.

it's an honest quality control issue when the translators don't even know how shanaroo was usually translated. it's like they couldn't even get anyone who cared about naruto to work on boruto's translation. i don't even care about sakura but that was just lazy.

>>288488195
They don't reflect the past accurately, for once. No shit Sakura is more popular after the most popular ship for self-inserters i.e SS became canon.
>>
>>288487531
Orochimaru is low because he's an old hag putting on makeup and immature. Sasori and Deidara are the only two people easy on the eyes who have civilized personalities. Orochimaru needs handlers.
>>
>>288488338
Sakura became popular after the anime cleaned her up in terms of design and the spinoffs translate the character as a normal person of the group.
>>
i feel it doesn't really help gaara as a character either when most the good guys also just praise naruto and talk about how inspiring he is.
though part of naruto's character arc is obviously gaining everyone's recognition.
but in a manga full of naruto wankers, adding another doesn't really do anything to make them feel unique. all the good guys suffer from being too similar in certain ways too.
and why doesn't gaara ever talk about any of his other bonds? he gained the respect of his village. and he has siblings who always cared about him and they always try to be there for him but he never talks about them and hardly acknowledges their existence.
all gaara does is talk about naruto. he suffers from a similar problem as naruto where he just obsesses over some other character and that's his whole character.

I don't even understand what's all the hype around Haku is about. Besides his death being milked for all it's worth what does he even have that makes him interesting? What does he do to warrant multiple people saying that he's a better character than all females and that Kishimoto would never write female character as good as him >>288448223? Like wow, he sacrificed himself for an asshole male without even hesitating, we sure never saw females do THAT in this manga.
>>
>>288488470
figure it out yourself retard
>>
>>288488470
i think land of waves is simply a good introduction to naruto's world with first-hand seeing ninja treated as disposable tools. and then also seeing it proved wrong with both haku and zabuza showing humanity.
and haku had a good tragic death with him dying without even knowing how important he was to his master. until the war arc ruined it.
he also passed on his worldview to naruto. haku is a pretty important character for that alone.
>>
>>288488378
Sure, that's what it was all about, her design. Uh-huh.

>>288488470
>he sacrificed himself for an asshole male without even hesitating, we sure never saw females do THAT
It's all in presentation. Hinata almost dying against Pain is no less noble than what Haku did yet you'll never know it from the way Kishimoto presents her sacrifice or how he brushes past her "death" entirely to focus on Naruto rageout.
>>
>>288488714
>>288488753
Characters enjoying undue popularity sure bothers you i see. Are your favourite characters Itachi or Minato, per chance?
>>
>>288488549
Sakura doesn't have a personality until the first two arcs. She's a slob outside the story, frustrated with people like Sasori who cut off emotions, and is easy going. So it's more Kakashi demanding she does illusions and ninjutsu with Tsunade making her do medic that makes her difficult.

I wonder what it would take for Kishimoto to give Hinata a solo fight in this war arc. Her getting the third place? First?
>>
>>288488893
I haven't read Kishimoto's words on women in Shippuden. IIRC, vulgar women like Anko, Ino, Sakura, Konan, Samui and Tsunade aren't liked by the author. He likes normal women like Hinata.

My ranking of female characters in the series

>Tsunade, Karin, and Old Chiyo.

Why Karin? She’s like Sakura, but she really went all out with her obsession, and Kishimoto uses her to convey strong symbolism. And I think the Sado thing is kind of kinky, and even kind of realistic. The kind of thing I like in my storytelling. Tsunade is a fully realized female character. Even though he downplayed her sexuality a bit, everything points to a woman with a complex history, and that explains her behavior. Chiyo is like Tsunade, only older, and she highlights these themes even more strongly. Strong characters don’t need to scream and learn kung fu to prove their worth. I’m talking about Hinata and Sakura, in case you didn’t get it.

They could've also done it differently, I'm not asking for "more" explanations.

Anything more mature than a 12 year old going "hey I liked my opponents" and so much dramatic emphasis on his teacher going "... wow....... you're right......"

I'm not shitting on the war for having a list of fights, it's not that bad on its own but this one doesn't even feel like it happened. Later stuff like Gaara's fights is actually pretty good in comparison despite not having fanservice characters
>>
>>288491420
the war arc is weird in general. the fights are rushed. the dialogue is cheesy and repetitive. a lot of characters seem like comic relief now when they weren't really before. the villains all have to one up each other and carry the same theme of "cycle of hatred" which leads to powercreep issues and samey feeling villains.
it has a lot of problems that naruto never had before.

and i agree on the pain arc having great emotional moments. naruto's depression after jiraiya's death is a highlight of the whole thing for me.
thinking back to it (minus the part where the konoha assault victims get revived), the land of waves, and the chuunin exams, it's hard to believe the war arc was even written by the same person.
did kishimoto just get burned out? was an editor that big of a deal for naruto's quality?
did kishimoto run out of ideas?
>>
>>288491526
What ??
>>
>>288491532
Gaara's fight with his dad is bad. His fight with the 2nd Mizukage was okay. 3rd Raikage fight is bad. Mu is bad. Nagato and Itachi is bad. The brothers vs Kabuto is okay, ignoring the ending. Obito with the Jinchurki is bad. Things really don't get interesting until Madara is summoned.
>>
>>288491587
It's not really that different from most previous arcs in terms of casualties. It's a pretty hot take but I don't really hate the "well Naruto is some Buddhist figure that unites everyone towards peace" direction in itself, it's just lacking in execution considering this is a Naruto and Sasuke wank manga.
But yeah, only Pain and what came shortly before actually had casualties, starting with Asuma. Before that, not much, and after that, not much either.

>>288491612
3rd Raikage was actually cool.
I agree dad fight was bad because it was a shitty retcon.
2nd Mizukage is actually 10/10.

>Mu is bad
Hmm? Thought he had a cool design, cool jutsu, just a short end sadly.
>Nagato and Itachi
Agree, the fight doesn't make much sense. The dialogues are okay probably?

>Later stuff like Gaara's fights is actually pretty good in comparison
even with rasa's cheesy dialogue,
>HOW DO YOU HAVE FRIENDS!?
like his first thought isn't to question why he's in the world of the living again, it's, "why does my son THAT I fucked up have friends?"
and the retcons with him and yashamaru? which just makes yashamaru seem like a limp wristed faggot. he always loved gaara but agreed to give him life long trauma so his retard father could test his worth?
it's worse than itachi always having loved sasuke. at least itachi had the fucked up excuse of being torn between his clan and the village and danzo threatening him, forcing him in a tough spot at a young age no less. and he wanted sasuke to be tough which technically worked even if incredibly fucked up.
rasa just wanted to poke a nuke with a stick to see if this time it wouldn't explode. and yashamaru just goes along with it...

the mizukage fight isn't terrible but it gets old when everything has to be comic relief. i thought THIS WAS WAR! shouldn't it be more serious?
lacking eyebrows means he's similar to gaara so that means gaara is cool in his book.

>>288491664
i just have a huge pet peeve with reviving characters. and sure, sra had fakeout deaths and shit, but it's not quite the same. killing a character off and introducing revival techniques ruins the actual stakes of death. then a character dying becomes a matter of "will they be revived later? should i care they just died?" a character dying should be definitive. but that's just my preference.
and i do think the sra fakeout deaths were lame too but just not on the same level. it's excusable enough to think the characters got medical attention soon enough before dying. with dying, there shouldn't be any medical attention/magical bullshit you can give them. but i do sometimes excuse revivals depending on the setting. if it's an apocalyptic world with angels and demons i can get past it. but naruto was mostly grounded before.
>>
>>288491917
>the mizukage fight isn't terrible but it gets old when everything has to be comic relief. i thought THIS WAS WAR! shouldn't it be more serious?
Mizukage being a goof is a welcome change and gave him personality. He's serious enough to assess the threat he is and try to help others but also tired to see even then he still fucking wins so he just goes "well whatever"

i don't hate that either. i agree with you on the execution being the problem. it feels like there should've been more to it instead of everyone just getting united to fight the zetsu army.

>>288491938

Everything about Gaara is so confusing. At first, he was just a version of Naruto if Konoha were more realistic, but then you have Golden Sand and all that crap. Even so, you could easily put together a top 10 list of just Gaara’s fights. Kishimoto works hard to make Gaara look good.
>>
>>288492034
>isn't his first thought "why does gaara have friends?"
All the previous Kage get summoned and they have a small exchange about how Tobirama's jutsu brought them back. Raza tells them Tobirama has been dead for a long time and Orochimaru had developed the jutsu even further in his time. The "why do you have friends" comes much later. Raza cares more about what happened to Shukaku before questioning Gaara.

i guess. but i think his chuunin exam fights are his best. one thing they get right is centering the fight around the thematics and symbolism like with naruto headbutting the mirror image of them together because gaara is a very static character who doesn't move around much so his techniques aren't very interesting to watch. the symbolism makes his early fights interesting. and then you had lee carrying most the visual movement in his most famous fight.
what do you think on this matter?

>>288492379
oh, it's something like rasa wonders why gaara has friends shortly after seeing him. but in my mind it got switched to that being rasa's first thought or something.

>>288490484
Naruto is entirely carried by the goodwill of part 1, especially the zabuza and chunin stuff. Back when Kishi had editors that would filter out his stupid ideas.

>>288491587
War arc falls flat because the other villages were not fleshed out at all. Nobody other than Konoha has characters you care about in this war, even then only Naruto and Sasuke are the only characters that get development.
>>
>>288492577
would you say the beginning of a series is the most important part then if it can carry an entire series on its back if it's good enough?

I, for one, would like to thank Kishi for creating Naruto, as shitty as it may be. I'm sure he never would have imagined it'd protect innocents because it keeps questionable characters here indefinitely. Surreal when you really think about it.

and what's up the dark eye circles? for gaara they're supposed to be eyebags but then when rasa is shown it's implied they're tied to his powers. magnet release or something. and gaara was also born with eyebags(?)/magnet release circles? and they're constantly active? or they're just bijuu marks shukaku gave gaara similar to naruto having whiskers because of kurama?

Deidara stands out for his sense of scale and urgency. Finally, a villain who puts the hero in a tough spot, since he has to protect the entire village all by himself. Madara is exactly the same situation, though it’s more of a battle of auras than something more meaningful like Deidara vs. Gaara, and Kimimaro is just cool.

just because of the pilot? and i'm with the other anon. the emotional hook with iruka was good enough.
i think naruto just nails emotional hooks really well. and it introduces interesting worldbuilding early on. it's just a shame it doesn't amount to much. and i think naruto has aspects that stand out as being amazing so it can get by despite having mediocre to shit content later.
most series don't even have 1 thing they do particularly well and never go beyond being mediocre.

>>288493340
it's kinda hard to explain what makes it nice looking in particular though. for gaara, i'm not really sure it's the eye marks specifically so much as the whole look together just looking aesthetically pleasing.
what do you think?

i suppose. madara is also charismatic so i think people just like watching him do shit because they think he's a fun character. or am i wrong? personally i was too burnt out from naruto and the whole war arc to really feel anything by then though. but i can see why people might like madara.
kimimaro has cool abilities i guess, which are even better in the manga because it's not censored.
but is there anything more to making a large scale battle feel cool? or is it just that it needs to feel urgent and like the threat is big? feeling like backed into a corner maybe?

All Kishi had to do was develop the other nations. He did this with zabuza. Could have done more in the chunin exams but he did do a good job(by Kishi standards) with the sand in the chunin exams. The kazekage arc is terrible but chiyo is a great character and introducing a former kazekage through sasori was smart. Kishimoto could have also developed these other nations through Sasuke's POV. Sasuke went and Suigetsu went to get Zabuzas sword and Sasuke goes to the cloud. Opportunity there. Kishis last big moment to get some characters fleshed out from the other villages would be the gokage summit. Which he did okay.

This isn't really development. Or rather it's pretty superficial.
>well this village had this character guy who was... idk, Kage? Or maybe high ranking guy, and he was strong, he... threw sand at people or something. Oh and that guy he has like a water gun
Like yeah okay you've got characters with powersets. You still didn't really think of intervillage dynamics that would allow you to write a convincing "war", we'd end up with something similar to the current one except replace the edo with another village ninjas.

-Hakus clan and implants to the reader that clans can be wiped out despite their rare strength in this world
-introduces the seven swordsman of the mist
-One of the rarest instances where non chakra antagonists can actually be dangerous I've Gato and his gang

All within a quick and easy arc.

>Kishimoto could have also developed these other nations through Sasuke's POV
There was a lot of potential there to introduce / develop certain aspects of other nations that he couldn't do through Naruto or one of the 'good guys'. Perhaps as a mercenary for the Mist (for info on Itachi or something instead of having his team just randomly walking around looking) to flesh Kirigakure out
>>
>>288494082
The mist using a rogue ninja from the leaf who would later become Akatsuki (who manipulated the mist back in the day) and that same ninja attacking the cloud would've made for an interesting political fiasco. Or at least a more interesting arc. Then seeing Naruto trying to make sense of all of this.

i do have an idea for comic inspired by battle manga i want to make someday. but dialogue and setup/hooks are a struggle. i have the themes and some characters thought out and what i want the general direction to be. the art direction might take some time to figure out but i have ideas for interesting ways to convey some information.
part 1 naruto is obviously serving as partial inspiration along with many other things.
anything that i would absolutely want to avoid if i seriously make this comic?
>>
>>288494409
Now the country of daitoshi real intentions come in as they see how regressed and distant they are to technological advancement it ploys to plan a psynop by commiting a political assasination killing the tsuchikage or A the raikage and framing the hidden leaf.
this stirs conflict and distrust between the leaf , the cloud and the sand with the cloud and the mist since the sand and leaf were originally the strongest of allies
the question here is suspicion of sasuke being behind this while the elders fear that is a probable cause.

All the while more intel is gathered by spy's from the advanced foreign nation and they ploy another assassination attempt and kill the hidden leafs two elders and some of the feudal lords now it is heavily questioned if sasuke is still corrupt.

Thats the first part of the beginning of the series trying to weed out the bad while uncovering the truth that it was indeed the foreign nation’s doing.

>Tsunade is a fully realized female character
Is she though? She is supposed to be a legendary ninja, but always just needs Naruto to bail her out, even before he actually becomes strong. Against Kabuto, but also as Hokage her solution was always just to hope Naruto shows up and solves her problems. Her internal conflict was also just being hung up on a guy that died like 30(?) years ago.
Maybe I'm unfair or overlooking something, but what makes you think she's a great character?

I probably would've been angy if Yugito jobbed to a 16 year old chuni though.

You need a good starting point. Introducing your main characters ( one or few max don't introduce too much early)

A problem the character has to solve. What does the character want, needs, strives to right now. What is standing in his way ect.

Don't over-explain everything. Readers can piece information themselves or be left with questions which is good. It's ok to throw the reader into a world they have no idea about without any info or lore dumps.

Early hooks are importany. Conflict, mystery to solve. Once you make a solid base for your story with characters in it, it can unravel on it's own even. You don't need a super detailed plan for the whole story. You're gonna change your mind about things as they progress.

Get a second opinion from time to time. Let someone read what you made. Sort of like an editor.

>>
>>288478984
>Naruto and Hinata but done right. Shy girls are usually sassy when they open up. We never got to see Hinata break out of her shell
Mostly because Kishimoto forgot there even was a shell and made awkward bumbling and shyness the essence of her character rather than something she suffers from. Still, i believe she was heading towards that breaking of the shell in part 1 with all the scenes of her opening up to Naruto. Then Kishimoto pulled the big brain move of regressing her character to even worse levels of shyness right at the start of part 2 in addition to making Naruto forget about her even earlier.
>>
>>288497678
Similr thing happened to sakuras character development
>>
>>288497894
Don't forget how much time Kishimoto spent convincing us that Sakura has changed and making her into a proper heroine in Gaara rescue arc. I guess it was marginally better than Hinata not getting anything at the end of part 1 except the scene of her serving tea and then in part 2 receiving less screentime than fucking TenTen, that shit was truly offensive.
>>
>>288492882
I thought they were meant to reference how Gaara can't sleep because of Shukaku, and also a play on his raccoon theme. Rasa having them as well does indeed destroy the intent of this design choice.
(and also Gaara still having the eyebags even after he had Shukaku removed from him ruins this concept entirely, but I guess that removing the eyebags would take way too much away from his design)
>>
>>288498152
>less screentime than fucking TenTen
*and lines, i forgot to add. That scene after Pain arc with TenTen yapping her face off while they're all gathered at that wood storage place while Hinata just stands there like a ghost or an actor without lines was truly rough.

I get the idea that originally she wasn't meant to included at all for that scene. With how off her presentation was in the pain arc conclusion (Staring without any thoughts or comment at Sakura hugging Naruto or not even talking to him for a long while until him swooping in to save her, remembering her assault on Tendo without commenting on her confession!?!?).

I wouldn't be surprised if she was originally meant to have an identical fate to Tsunade or being killed.

Naruto's power level peaked at Kaguya.
Naruto peaked in high school.

>Isshiki is the strongest!
>Baryon Mode is the strongest!

Pre-chakra fruit Kaguya raped Isshiki so bad he couldn't even implant a karma or regenerate.
Naruto and Sasuke got immediately weaker the second they had their Six Paths seals return to Hagaromo. The entire power level of Boruto is extremely weaker than the end of War Arc.

>Her internal conflict was also just being hung up on a guy that died like 30(?) years ago.
Her fiance and her little brother who both died horribly turning her into a wreck of a person. I don't care about Tsunade, and I don't think she's a great character, but her internal conflict is on a similar level as Obito's obsession with Rin, Naruto's and Itachi's with Sasuke, Kakashi's and Gai's sad backstories about their dads or Kabuto's sudden obsession with the orphanage and the "brother" he had known for like 2 years as a young kid that resurfaced after Itachi mindfucked him. It's just typical Kishi writing which is generally shit.

I've picked up the storm entries to pass the vacation, was surprised by how they nailed some manga panels better even while blending in the gameplay. But some decisions aren't exactly reflected well by the chronicle order or are oddly phrased.
Naruto and Hinata in 2 are listed as secret lovers if you form a team with them, which would be a cute touch if they haven't fucked up her confession (She never said "I love you" to him in it). Them having to somewhat untangle the retarded mess from Kishimoto across 2 to 4 in side content was neat but ultimately feels limited to abide the time frame or setups for THE LAST.

Also did Naruto even remembered before the genjustu connected their memories that Hinata said "I love you"? Every iteration where it got brought up beforehand always cuts short of it or skips to her fighting Pain but never that one again. Like why? Was he selectively deaf?

I like the pairing but jesus christ some parts when looking back are really not good but that's an overreaching issue on Kishi's part of creating set pieces but not committing to them or following up on them.

>sneak attack
Impossible with the Byakugan. Also his durability is enough to tank 100 blows from Baryon mode. What did Kaguya pre-fruit do to rip his arm, limbs, and torse off? She fucking gorilla raped him so bad that he couldn't even regenerate. Consider, Ōtsutsuki have defunct bodies. They can survive having their hearts and other parts completely blow away as we saw with Madara vs. Guy. So Kaguya's "suprise attack" had to involve doing so much damage that he couldn't just use his chakra reserves to regenerate.
>His power was down so she could kill him
Sorry dumbass, but Otsutsuki literally don't have Chakra control. They are just raw chakra 24/7. Chakra control is a product of Ninshu which is a wholly earth-based phenomenon.

pre-fruit Kaguya is LEAGUES stronger than Baryon Mode.
