What the fuck happened to Naruto games? Why did they get stuck with ultimate ninja storms instead of trying to make new stuff? Like an open world or some shit
I wish anko would have raped and abused me in a position of power
licensed games are stale boring shit because it's a safe bet and fanboys will buy it no matter whatfishnet sex
dragon ball, kinonaruto, don't careone piece, sexobleach, don't caregrappler baki, kinomy hero academia, ugly as sindemon blade, don't care
I'll never forgive them for what they did to Anko
The reason Naruto says “believe it” in English but not in Japanese is because they saw they could exploit us with the use of a catchphrase. He just keeps mindlessly repeating “believe it.” To the viewer. Which is like a way to say “hahaha your life is is extremely painful for no personal reason, and you will never remove the portal key device from my grasp mortals”. It loves taunting us.
>>736067374Boruto is not canon.
>>736067129Blame Bandai Namco for being shitty developers who fuck up every time they try and fail to innovate and by "innovate" i mean copying other games but doing it in a shitty way like Blue Protocol.
>>736067623What happened to Anko is, thoughever. It was all on Kishimoto. Straight out of Ch700.
>>736067129>What the fuck happened to Naruto games?When people inquired Matsuyama about Storm Connections he said that they needed to ring at Bamco's bell because supporting that game was out of CC2's control.If I had to guess I'd say it's all on Bamco.They don't care enough to hire new companies to work on new games, and they're happy enough with the income from Shinobi Striker's DLC or something.>>736067531>The reason Naruto says “believe it” in English but not in Japanese is becausein Japanese he says "Dattebayo" instead.That's a part of his speech pattern, and of course they were never going to have him finish his sentences with "Dattebayo" in the english dub, so they decided to turn it into "Believe it!".
>>736067374Aside from making her fat, it's incredible how they established her as one of Orochimaru's ex-pupils/experiments and just did nothing with that.She should have played a bigger role when they were trying to track him and Sasuke down.
>>7360671295nan...
>>736067802Dattebayo Datte bay, ohDate bae, oh… And he’s a fucking perma virgin dude nobody fucks Naruto not ever buddy but he never seems to do the clone jutsu then fuck his own ass and mouth which is what I would immediately do if I could clone up.
>>736067979are you fucking 12 or what
>>736068008You don’t find it funny that his big catch phrase is literally to accuse the viewer of being incel over and over to mark it into your memory. Date a bae oh. Cmon dude that’s fucking classic humor, you will be shot dead by the armed forces if you disagree.
>>736067979
>>736067129Six packs on women are not hot. Normal defined feminine tummy is where it's at.
>>736068134Least unhinged naruto fan
>>736068134yapping
>>736067129One of the hottest characters and then proceeded to do nothing for the rest of the series and then gets fat in the Infinite Tsukoyomi.
FATFUCK
>>736067745He's a known hack, so...
>>736068263you are gay and homosex
>>736067745The whole epilogue was garbage (except for NaruHIna but let's not get into that)
>>736067129Despite Naruto ending years ago, it still generates revenue on par with One Piece. And no Boruto has nothing to do with it.It’s ironic because even Kishimoto said OP is better and that he will never make a manga as good as it. There’s just some magic to Naruto it seems.
>>736069657Naruto is carried hard by the good will of the OG series.
>>736069657>>736069717It's all because people still want to fuck the characters
>>736067745can't have old characters be better than the new characters so he went and intentionally ruined all of them
>>736067745>>736067623>>736067374it's not like the warning signs weren't thereEbisu been told ya
>>736067979>And he’s a fucking perma virgin dude nobody fucks Naruto not everhe has 2 kids with Hinata in the canon epilogue chapter
>>736070361consider her profession. how the fuck is she not burning all those calories?fat anko makes no sense unless she had a kid a retired early
>>736070361this page isn't yellowed by cigarette smoke enough
>>736070485>consider her profession. how the fuck is she not burning all those calories?peacetime and getting oldershe's just an instructor now, she probably doesn't push herself very much anymore and still eats just as much if not more than she did before
>>736070485Only Anbu were on the clock 24/7. "Regular" Jounin like Kakashi, Gai and Anko seemed to have an abundance of free time.
>>736067129uh is she not wearing panties?
>>736070587I agree with your point, but let me just be a little autistic and point out that she's not even a "full" Jonin, only a Special Jonin like Ebisu (meaning only one of her stats/abilities are at jonin-level)so she probably had even less responsibilities than someone like Kakashi
>>736070619that's right
>Why did they get stuck with ultimate ninja storms instead of trying to make new stuff?Same phenomenon as Touhou: Its fan base never grow up, and copy-pasted shovelware has always been enough to fleece them with.
>>736070627It's kinda weird how the stronger you were as a ninja, the less responsibilities you apparently had.
>>736070573"now", you mean the Burrito era. it's non-canon.>>736070587they have to have been training as well during the down times. they didn't just sit around doing nothing. Not to mention going on missions too.
>>736070730I dunno man. Most jounin we see across the original series never really seem to go on serious missions. Kakashi had enough free time to dedicate literal hours of his day, EVERY day, to staring at a grave. Gai dedicated a good chunk of his time to performing ludicrous challenges on himself, or challenging Kakashi to silly duels. No matter how you look at it, non-Anbu jounin were all slackers.
>>736067129>Like an open world or some shitno thanks
>>736070653what the frick she's showing off in front of a child
>>736070716Well, it's not really accurate either that Kakashi had lots of free time. He does later after he retires, but during the series he's either always leading Team 7, or out on secret solo missions, and later doing top-secret stuff while Yamato filled in as Jonin leaderTo me the dumbest thing about the whole Ninja system in Naruto is that, once you become THE STRONGEST, they decide to....give you a desk jobLike Naruto is so tired from doing PAPERWORK and ZOOM MEETINGS all day long that he can't even maintain a single shadow-clone to hold a birthday cake for his daughterWhat if the village gets invaded when he's tired from a day of bullshit office work? Then your STRONGEST GUY can't defend the village. The whole system is backwardsNaruto should be at home, rested, ready to rumble in top condition at a moments noticeShikamaru should be the guy doing paperwork
>>736070928lucky...
>>736070730>"now", you mean the Burrito era. it's non-canonYou can hate Boruto as much as you like but Kishimoto said it's canon, so it is.
>>736070928right againremember anko's introduction? she cut Naruto's cheek with a kunai then got all up on him seductively and licked his blood, saying he tasted good (because he's so young)Anko is legitimately /ss/ and the manga didn't even try to hide itprobably because Orochimaru groomed her
>>736067129uhhh actually its ring mail not mesh netting
>>736071054changes nothing
i completely ignore anko pics if she has panties or if the fishnet isn't actually see-through
>>736071054nah, it's meshalot of the chicks wear it and it's always drawn the same way, cross-hatched, not rings
>>736071082well its not see-through for one
>>736071108I see through it just fine
>>736071103What if sand blows up her coochie
>>736070992did he I never watched naruto past the sasuke vs naruto waterfall fight
>>736069945Pretty impressive considering Naruto is very suppressed reguarding fanservice.
>>736070967Senility is a sad thing to happen to someone. We can't take him seriously, he's not speaking from a sound mind...>>736070808his morning routine includes a visit to the cemetery. hardly takes up his entire day. As for Guy's challenges and his duels eith Kakashi, I'd argue that's training (as well as entertainment for Guy).You can't tell me Anko wasn't training like 2 hours at the very minimum. Come on anon she has to keep her job at least. Even if she slacks off most of the day (which I doubt anyway) just two hours of training (ninja trainin, which is much more intensive than going to the gym) should be enough to whete she doesn't gain excess weight.
>>736071230Gotta ask Gaara to get it outThey're very close siblings>>736071280Yeah you probably forgot because it was just a short thing in the Forest of Death when she confronted Orochimaru. She used to be one of his apprentices or whatever, he gave her the curse mark but she didn't really adapt to it well so he ended up abandoning her when he left the village. But she was in love with Orochimaru, and he knew it, so he used that to manipulate her. They had a lot of sexual tension during their brief reunion, but it never really comes up again.Really her purpose on the story was just to foreshadow (as if we didn't already know) that Orochimaru giving Sasuke the curse seal was just a purely selfish move and he was going to pump-and-dump Sasuke as soon as he was ready
>>736071280Anko stopped being relevant long before that.
>>736071313>Senility is a sad thing to happen to someone. We can't take him seriously, he's not speaking from a sound mind...Well yeah I wish it WASN'T canon and it arguably shouldn't be, since I don't think Kishimoto has ever been credited as the Writer. They had whats-his-name (Kodachi?) and Ikemoto as the artist but I can't remember if they EVER had a real writers creditThe theory is that they've really just been writing fanfiction based on Kishimoto's vague notes, and that probably stopped a long time ago when they ditched the "Technology is putting Ninja out of business" plotline and just turned it into a teen romance-drama about kpop fashion models and aliens (this shit is ALL Ikemoto)
>>736071368>>736071389oh cool thanks for letting me knowI have actually been thinking about watching naruto again all the way through but skipping the filler
Just give us CaC RPG game
>>736071460I think there's gotta be a fan-edit by now that cuts out most of the fillerI might be crazy but I'm pretty sure it's out therealthough realistically, most of the filler is just stacked between parts 1 and 2 and easily skippable as a block
>>736068263>Six packs on 3d women are not hotftfy
>>736070361You've gone too far this time Brosnan
Temari and Anko fishnet sex
>full-body transformations to make yourself look just like a completely different person is an Academy-level basic jutsu that's expected to be mastered by 8-year-oldsshe chooses to look fat
>>736067209RAAAAPEEE MEEEEE
>>736067623It is doe. Cry harder, Naruto was always shit.
>>736067745i want that fat ninja bitch teacher on my cockknow what i'm saying?
This thread gave me the push I needed to finish Storm Connection's story mode.I never really checked the "true" chapter (it's a string of cutscenes with 2 fights).It was cute. A bit of a rushed epilogue with an asspulled time travel mechanic, but at least the important cutscenes were animated nicely.I will never forgive CC2 for not making the cute uchiha oc donut steel Hikari/Nanashi playable.
>>736074201>it's literally female sasukeJesus christ, they're so creatively bankrupt.
I still play Ninja Taisen 4 with the bros every two weks or so.
>>736074241All Uchiha look the same
>>736067129>open slopdumb zoomer
>>736070396Spoiler: they aren't his kids.
>>736074289Tobirama...
>>736074289Hey now
>>736074289Dude, that's racist.
>>736067209Wasn't she willingly got raped by Orochimaru and then resented him for abandonning her?
>>736075969Our hero and saviour.
>>736067623this.
Go beg some devs to make Xenoverse but Naruto, minus the time travel shit.
>>736076710>Wasn't she willingly got raped Good morning Saaaar
>>736076770Literally the cause of the greatest ninja war in history.
>>736074201Sasuke became a girl???
>>736076857Uchiggers will always find a way to become depressed, always a victim and never responsible for their actions because muh revenge. Just like real life niggers.
>>736077021Yes actually.
>>736077306Oh good, guess that means Naruto isn't gay anymore.
>>736070485She wasn't fat when she was active. Even athletes get fat when they retire if they don't adjust their diet.
>>736071054>yeah bro it's totally completely form fitting ring mail>ignore the fact ninjas are commonly represented wearing fishnets in popular culture
>>736067859Kishimoto doesn't know how to write women so he tossed Anko aside and made Yamato fill that role.
>>736078349Yeah Yamato was written a lot better. Remember that time when he
>>736067129Storm 4 is actually pretty technical and competitive
Harlem Jet
>>736079217With the EVO mod or vanilla?
>>736079395Both, evolution wins a little though. The mod is great but I'm nitpicky about small minor changes compared to the original Naruto storm 4 game like the modified item pool for some characters. Guard not being "infinite" is the biggest positive thing
>>736074241More like female Madara. And what the fuck would you expect an Uchiha to look like?
>>736067129>Why did they get stuck with ultimate ninja storms instead of trying to make new stuff?Because they sold well, had great production value, and the mechanics matched the power fantasy. Why change it if the games kept performing?
>>736078152well to be fair, that comes from cheap productions using fishnets as a standin for chainmail frequently enough that people just starting depicting them with fishnets
>>736074201i think i saw this OC on DeviantArt back in 2008-2010 or something.. she's canon now?
>>736078152In this case it is true, there was a scene where somebody (jiraya i think) puts it off and a metal sound can be heard
>>736080478Not really.She's an OC donut steel CC2 drew for an original story presented in the last Storm game.They had the usual mode with recaps of major fights, and then a separate story mode for Boruto that doesn't follow anything in its manga or anime.
>>736074201She cute
>>736079680Because I(me) don't like it
>>736067129Naruto secret family with Slime Princess Tsunade.
>>736067129There were two open world Naruto games actually. Both from ubisoft
>>736067129they never hired any decent devs to make real gameskind of a huge waste when you think about it, Naruto was the biggest IP around for a while there. They could have leveraged that to make a game series that could have really made an impact. Instead they just chose to make low effort trash. What a fumble.
>>736067531he says it in Japanese too. motherfucker have you never even watched the show? have you never read the manga? why do you even bother to talk about shit you know nothing about
>>736081402The size of a franchise doens't equate to good games. I think Demon Slayer has like a Mario party game and One Piece has like 2 good games and they're musou.
i'm surprised that there wasn't any attempt for a naruto mmorpg back in that era of wow-clones lmao
>>736081479it doesn't have to equate to good games, but you can take advantage of the fact that you have an existing IP to gather attention to a great game you make so that it goes well beyond the audience that either could have generated on their ownthe fact that they didn't is a waste
Tayuya femdom (+swearing)
>>736069530Shikamaru ending with Temari was also good.I mean, we all knew it was gonna happen, but it was nice that it happened.
I wish GNT and UN lasted a little longer so I could play as Pain in them
>>736082381He really lucked out getting best girl
>>736082851UN kinda did.Narutimate Accel 3 for the PSP is by all intents and purposes Ultimate Ninja 6, though it was called Ultimate Ninja Heroes 3 for... reasons.Man, you just reminded me that GNT SP! didn't have Pain. Or the members of Taka.
>>736083057Never played the PSP titles. Maybe I'll give that one a shot
>>736082851>GNTI don't think Bamco would want to hired eighting to make a new Clash of Ninja game when they have CC2 on their pocket.>UNIt got evolved into Storm games? Or you miss the OG ones?
>>736083160I meant the OG ones specifically, yeah. Just preferred the gameplay in those series over the rest of the games
why is naruto hentai so mid?
fuck it I've literally never played the storm series and read the manga, not really a big fan of the anime and fillers but what's the best way to experience shipuuden with the storm stuff? best to go in order? play the latest one?
>>736083424fr? it's no cap mid? on god fr?
>>736082381now that's the life
>>736083492fr fr senpai
>>736083470>what's the best way to experience shipuuden with the storm stuff? best to go in order? play the latest one?Storm Connections if you want a quick and dirty experience through a recap with anime pics combined with Storm games cutscenes and animated boss fights.Storm 2, 3 and 4 if you want the full thing.
>>736083470Just play Ninja Storm 2
>>736067129>anime dead>manga is not popular anymoreNo interest in Naruto games. They were developing a few and cancelled them like 2 years ago.https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/bandai-namco-has-reportedly-cancelled-several-titles-and-is-cutting-its-workforce/
>>736083632idk why bandai namco went full retard and dropped fate for fucking SAO.
>>736067129How uncomfortable is to wear a chainmail bodysuit?
>>736076710I think Orichimaru should have just slid down her throat as the snake
who can stop him?
Just do smth similar to what Made in Abyss kusoge did.>Character creator>Maybe give him his own story or shit that's closely intertwined with Naruto's storyThere, you could probably do it with any big ayynime or mango
>>736083919zamn what's her cup size?
The entire franchise is mogged by Mokuren.
>>736084169holy sex
>>736080945Source? SauceNAO gives nothing.
>>736083424For some reason not that many artists bothered with it. It's sad to see girls like Temari, Tayuya, Anko, Shizune and Tenten barely get anything
>>736067623Even if that was true (it’s not) she was a fat slob by the end of naruto
>>736084396Aroma Gaeru Slime Princess series.
>>736071082>Hinata canonically has big booba>Hinata's booba shrunk after having two children and she somehow didn't get much curvier
>>736067623/thread
>>736067623Boruto was ok as a concept, but then it rapidly became pants on head retarded and introduced literal clones and a person who can literally brainwash the entire world in a snap... Also, Kurama dying and then somehow reforming in Himawari made zero sense, and then to rub salt in the wound it straight up says Himawari is 100% compatible with Kurama is is a far superior vessel and will be able to do everything Naruto did but better.
>>736085061>anime gay censorship + Ikemoto, the current Boruto artist, is fucking dogshit and can't make characters look good.That's the reason and the Kishimoto version still has her with her big boobas. Even Tsunade lost her tits in the dogshit Boruto anime thanks to the fag censorship
One good thing came out of Boruto
>>736085454Himawari is so frigging cute
>>736085454>Hinata only comes up to Naruto's chestSomething tells me she likes him fucking her in the full nelson position.
>>736085541Only in Kishimoto hands, she looks like a goblin with Ikemoto's drawing same goes to this goblin version of Sarada >>736085516
>>736085824Is Ikemoto the same faggot who's desperately trying to copy the JoJo art style? Because Boruto and Sarada look fucking atrocious like that.
>>736085824Why Ikemoto still has a job?
>>736067623She already ruined in Naruto, like wdym she got one shot by that Harry Potter looking faggot and spent the final arc getting molested while unconscious.
>>736085890True, when i was still reading Boruto i fucking hated how much he tried to copy JoJo style and Jojo poses and he really can't draw for shit, every character looks atrocious>>736085907The only response i can think of is nepotism since he used to be Kishimoto assistant
>>736085061I will never forgive Bort for sucking them dry.
>>736071460There's an edit called Naruto Kai you can find that does that. Or you can just read the manga; the storytime from 2020 is great for that if you look in the archives.Personally, I'm 50/50 on Kai. No filler is a life saver in theory, but without any, this already weak series, notorious for pushing characters into irrelevance, suffers from that issue all the more.
>>736083982a hack writer

>>736067129Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 was too good. It got a near perfect 39/40 score from Famitsu.
>>736087362And Storm 3 too. Couldn't find Storm 4's score though.
>>736084979My thanks.
>>736069530The SakuNaru "No Way Fag" moment was such a wonderful meltdown when it happened
>>736067129Smug cartoon women make my dick hard.
>>736090195>was such a wonderful meltdown when it happenedThey are still coping to this day. Who do you think keeps funding all those Hinata/Raikage commissions? Shit was traced back to them years ago.
>>736090773Wasn't it some pinoy dude?
>>736090862From what I remember, the fag who made the petition to have the ending changed got linked to several commissions involving the stuff. But yeah, there was also that one Filipino guy
>>736071389anko is so fine. possibly the sexiest character kishi put to paper. shame she was entirely shafted just like kurenai.
>Naruto would be perfect for a Xenoverse style game>Will never happen>Even Xenoverse itself just languishes in dlc hell even though 2 came out TEN YEARS AGO
>>736068263Counter point: Positioning your open mouth at her belly button and using her six pack as drink luge.
>>736087304bleach is far better written than narto, cope and seethe nigger
>>736087304>misunderstand his power this hardFucking lmao. Average narutard over here.
>>736083664Bamco can crank out as many low quality licensed SAO games as physically possible and people will keep buying them.
>>736093651Naruto is fucking shit tier writing too
>>736093848And it got even worse with boruto. It's amazing. Even one piece became total shit after the time skip. Same goddamn arc repeated times infinity.
I liked this one
>>736067129shes fat now, ruined
>>736093927One piece still has a chance to recover but at this point no matter what the fuck the actual one piece is is going to be extremely disappointing. Bleach and naruto cratered facefirst into the ground and then kept digging.
And speaking of one piece, that one actually has some variety in its games even though it's still pisspoor. bleach and naruto got the one formula for every single game treatment.
>>736093927>>736094087One Piece was always shit, faggots.
>>736094453In a world of 4/10s the 5/10 is king
>>736094453one piece was comfy AS FUCK nigger. AS FUCK. I randomly decided to put on early episodes via one pace and not only do they hold up the feel of adventure is still there even though I know what happens. OP was genuinely an excellent shounen before the time skip and now it's all about repeating the same arc in the midst of nonstop battling. And Luffy blanco. >>736094087SS Arc is among the best shounen arcs ever made, I've still yet to see a series with back to back to back to back to back fights like that. Give me a series that pushes its protagonist to the absolute limit again. This stupid industry.
>>736094698>Muh comfyNo argument. Keep screeching
>>736094758>no argumentYou dumb gorilla nigger. Obviously it implies more than just that. Great adventure, fun stories, neat battles and action, likeable and funny characters. It's all there.
>>736067129>caring about anko when kurenai existsgay
>>736093340>we will never get a naruto game where we can have our oc and roam the villages>we can even get our little ending with a girl of our choice
>>736095227shinobi striker?
>>736067129>Why did they get stuck with ultimate ninja storms instead of trying to make new stuff?It was easy to do minimal upgrades to each entry and expand the roster slightly. Money printer go brrr slop series
>>736067359>bleach, don't careBleach has some hot characters though
>>736096421>shit tone of different versions of rukia and orihime >and one rangiku
>>736096565nta, you're blind
>>736094453Nah, but wano was the tipping point into unrecoverable slop territory and anyone still reading it weekly is overdosing on copium
>>736067129the xbox 360 games lookedfunman i dont blame the author but naruto went to shit in the final arkits depressing cuz naruto has a good message
>>736093927>>736094087haki truly ruined OP. when fights required cunning & strategic planning to counter DF skills prior, now it's all a haki cockswinging battle. you have an interesting unique ability you spent your whole life to hone? tough luck my haki is bigger, get bitchslapped.half the SHs got reduced to background characters in their own story, relegated to mandatory gag appearances then fucking off for a dozen chapters. OP is better now than timeskip upto Dressrosa because of Imu being a hype generator & compelling villain.
>>736067802>Dattebayothey should've had him punctuate his sentences with "you feel me" or "k ow what I'm saying" like a real nigga
>>736096627>no you see, the glasses make her different
>>736096809it all started with oda introducing devil fruits that are way too OP. fire? light? magma? that shit needed some bigger drawbacks.
If I like Naruto, would I like Jojo or Fist of the North Star?
>>736096809I thought haki was a cool way for characters without powers to actually stay relevant, but it went too far for sure. Shit sucks
>>736067374The only thing keeping her thin was the curse mark
>>736096565one piece is all nami
>>736080945love that seriesthough 2 had the best art, imo
>>736070992>probably because Orochimaru groomed herShe always struck me more as a rape victim/analog to a rape victim rather than a full on groomed child. I think the sound ninjas would better fit that descriptionShe is still too hot for that wasted potential
>>736097465>picwhat fugaku sees after minato is done with kushina
>>736076510SHUT THE FUCK UP UCHIGGER!
>>736085824ikemoto has improvedwe have to at least recognize that
>Anko goes from hot with the potential to be a big player in the story to a fat do nothing background character in part 2I can't think of a bigger downgrade
>>736067129Why is she assuming this pose as though she is about to use her position of authority over her underaged student to force him to perform standing cunnilingus on her? Isn’t that harmful and illegal?
>>736097609Orochimaru never raped her though, it was the oppositeOro immediately recognized that she had romantic feelings for him, so he SPECIFICALLY chose NOT to engage with that, and leave her hanging. He blueballed Anko and used her attachment to him to make her do things according to his agenda.
>>736097927She's just relaxing, and her precious student has brought her her favorite snackThere's nothing wrong about that
>>736097885wheelchair Gai is the second worst crimeit would have been kinder to let him die in a blaze of glory than turn him in to a cringe handicap
>>736067129I like Neji.
>>736098280honestly If Kishi was so confused on how to kill Madara he should have just let Guy die using the 8th gates killing madara for good and skip the rabbit lady and have naruto and sasuke match at the end
>>736098083reminder she tried to use a jutsu that kills them both, and realized shed be solo so she bailed on that idea
>>736097851>from diarrhea>to just normal shitwow what a improvement
>>736097885Meatshield Neji
>>736097161Neither. Read its inspirations:>Akira>Dragon Ball/Z>Blade of the Immortal>Hunter X Hunter
>>736098571Why wouldn't I like Jojo or Fist of the North Star
>>736098456yeah I'm not saying Ikemoto is a great artist or anything but he certainly has his own stylethe reason he got the job is because he was with Kishimoto as his assistant from like chapter 3 or something, so he was just a ride-or-die nigga and Kishimoto respected that and gave him the keys to the kingdom
>>736098280A lot more people should've died in the war arc, Gaara, raikage, the old kage, they all should've died, hell even anko too should've died. It's insane how there's only one named character that died in an arc called world war.
>>736098834but the real hero was Yahagihe's the reason you had Sasuke and the Chunin Examsand why Naruto is a human being and not a fox-furry monstersay 'thank you yahagi'
>>736098834more ikemoto lore
>>736098887and while its fair to say he made the series what it is because he saved it at the start, would he have let it die knowing what it became?
>>736098836Nagato's mass resurrection should never happen
>>736098887
>>736098996they robbed kakashi of a perfect deathand a really meaningful moment for naruto when eh arrives and asks where kakashi is, even though he can already sense that he's deadthat was such a mistake
>>736098996Nah, killing kakashi that early on is stupid, the resurrection indeed shouldn't happen but killing that many named character in the middle of an arc is stupid. It feels like kishimoto wrote himself into a corner by killing hinata and kakashi at the same time.
>>736098734Because I dont silly and as you know if I don't like something then no one else can either. It's like a rule, duh.
Listen. I'm not opposed to making a friend out of your enemy. Not even when he's killed people. Not even when he's been inolved in the misery of a lot of people, even ones you knew. That's not inherently bad; a character's empathetic nature can make perfect sense, and Naruto's generally does.I do, however, draw the line at saying, after maybe an hour of finding out his backstory at most, that the guy who killed over 40'000 people in a day, including a friend who just gave his life, who taunted you about said friend's death, and who killed your parents, is "the coolest guy".There were ways to have Naruto defend Obito. This? This is not one of them.>lots of things happened in the wayfuck right off
>>736084927It is true. The only reason Boruto is even a thing is because nips are creatively bankrupt right now and can't create better shounen anymore, so they have to stick with what already works.
>>736099282why not
>>736099323>rin does not care about obito in a romantic way until he becomes a mass murderer and people say Kishi cant write women
>>736098734Because they're not similar in tone to Naruto. JoJo has everyone being flamboyant as possible and lacks the natural grit in its aesthetic when compared to Naruto itself. In HnK, everyone is a walking gigachad with martial arts skills. So everyone in Naruto would shit in their presence when they see how jacked up they are in comparison.When Kishimoto was creating Naruto, he was specifically inspired by those four manga in Greentext. He drew inspiration from Akira's architecture and transitioned that to a steampunk aesthetic (at least in Early Pt. 1). DB because obviously it's DB. Blade of the Immortal because of the gritty artstyle and Magatsu Taito inspiring Rikimaru AND Kakashi. And Hunter X Hunter which inspired the Chuunin Exams.
>>736099323I'll play devil's advocate here and say that Naruto and Obito entered a kind of soul-link that goes beyond just generally empathizing with each other. With the sage powers and the chakra stuff from 6-paths going on they more or less experienced eachothers lives so it makes sense that Naruto came to peace with everything Obito dideven if that includes almost gutting him as a baby
>>736099421I just told you it's like a rule, you arent a rule breaker are you anon?
>>736099085I guess there's a reason for why Sasuke is a crybaby deep inside.
>>736098571>>736097161read its succesorKagurabachi
>>736099323
>>736099323If the reason the person who was trying to kill you is no longer a reason, then is that person still your enemy?Why?
>>736094885But Anko is sexier...
>>736098431>kishi>ever letting an uchiha lose
>>736099495>>736099323>>736099681WA KATENDAYOHOKA NO DAREDEMO NAKUTEKONO SORA IPPAI NO NIJI O KAKETE MISERU YOhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3zsRbVo1T8
>>736099495I can see the logical throughline for your thought process, it's not nonsense, but if that was the intent, it was shoddily communicated.Real shame, because, in a way, Obito makes even more sense than Nagato when it comes to people Naruto reaches out to. But it happens too fast, Obito spends far more time interacting with Kakashi and Minato than Naruto in any meaningful way, and Kishi overdid how hard Naruto sucks him off.

Naruto Shippuden started out really well. It had that uncertain feel to it. It was great waiting for the next chapters but then everything went to to shit.
>>736100157NahAnko => Temari > Shizune > Tsunade > Tayuya > Hinata (pre timeskip) > Tenten > Ino > Kurenai > rest
>>736100114of course it was shoddily communicateddiehard fans have been doing damage control for the war arc for over a decade now
>>736100287the author is a feminist, so you should have abandoned all hope a while agoI have a few thoughts on this part1
>>736071082Everytime I see this screenshot, it makes me laugh because it looks like Sakura is resisting the instinctual urge to grope those puppies.
>>736100581part 2
>>736099840His conclusion is correct, just not the way he thinks. There is no such thing as "righteous violence" because righteousness does not exist at all. The word is just a tool people to justify their own actions to themselves.There is, however, necessary violence. Unfortunately, if people refuse to listen to reason, the only way to stop them, especially if it's a grand scale conflict and not just a personal altercation, is violence.
>>736100651Glad I stopped watching after season 1
>>736084169>actual see-thru fishnetsI kneel...
>>736083982himawari
>>736100430>Naruto Shippuden started out really wellDid we read the same manga? Gaara fighting Deidara was neat, and it was nice to see Sakura almost be a character for once, but everything else is awful until Sasuke takes center stage.
>>736100473Your list is mostly correct but:Anko => Temari > Samui > Tenten > Tayuya > Shizune > Mei > Kaguya > Kin Tsuchi > Tsunade > Shizuka > Hinata > Yugito > Yugao > Sakura > Karin > Ino > Kurenai Shizuka Mei Kurotsuchi

TUD
>>736076857>Uchiggers just HAVE to betray the village because they're moved from one part to anotherTobirama was so right that nobody in or outside of canon can argue against him.
fuck it, I'll just post some images of the good old days.
>>736101441>all uchiha related
>>736100675The problem with Thorfinn is that he should have, and could have, just gone back home at any point. If he wanted to live a life of non-violence far away from people, he should have simply gone home immediately after his father died.He didn't do that because he's a hypocrite, and as a result he ended up causing a lot of innocent people to die, and there is really no way to attone for that even if you try to run to the other side of the world and become a tree-hugging pussy.
>>736067129>What the fuck happened to Naruto games?They got knocked out of Bamco's list of top earning franchises, so they lowered the frequency at which they're pumped out as well as cutting their budget and resource allocation.Naruto was unironically the gate-closer on the top-earners list and was replaced with Super Robot Wars. No I'm not kidding.
I think I'm gonna rewatch the whole naruto show from beginning to end, bros. (Skipping the fillers, of course.)As cringe and gay as it may have been, it still beats most modern anime and definitely most modern TV. Or maybe that's the nostalgia speaking. But probably not.See you in a month.
>>736067129this is probably the best anko image ever created, and danbooru jannies didn't approve it. what the heck
>>736101441you had to be there
>>736100675Cringe homo shit. No norse person would ever say something so retarded. Heck, even pacifistic christian monks would laugh at how absurd and incoherent it is.
>>736101541it ended 11 years agoit's been long enoughgo back and enjoy it again
>>736067623Borutokino
It was the introduction of this bullshit that made me finally drop Naruto.I hate it so much, especially since it replaced regular sage mode so quickly.
>>736101441Can't forget one of the most important bits
>>736069530>>736090195i see you're not ready to have the conversation on how the show should have went from the start.
>>736101840WMAF

>>736101816the companion piece as well

>>736101791yeah, sage mode should have been the endgame lookit was so good
>>736101923SHUT UP!
>>736067129having a sex queen like anko, doing fucking NOTHING with her for the whole show and then turning her into a fatso whale is the perfect summary of the shitshow of wasted potential that is naruto
>>736101840They would make ultimate children.
>>736067374I’m with you my man
I remember doing Sunday shifts alone in the office, waiting for the new Naruto youtube video with subs and wanking my shit to porn. Only later found out they had security cameras and amassed hours of footage of me gooning. After they confronted me I called the boss a nazi general and quit.
>>736067278>fishnetchainmail
>>736104317lol based
>>736104317your boss was neji?
>>736104317Understandable
>>736104317kek
>>736104317So Neji didn't die. Instead, he was reincarnated as your boss and fired you from your job. I bet he also blocked your UI while he was at it.Truly living up to his Buddhist reputation.
Save me Anko!
>>736067129Bamco hates video games and hates spending money They know the cattle will buy anything licensed regardless of quality That's the long and short of it
Is boruto worth reading or watching at all? Which should I choose, manga or anime? Do I skip the anime fillers? I just want more naruto ninja kino
>>736107048>Is boruto worth reading or watching at all?FUCK no nooooooooooooo
>>736101898what the fuck is wrong with naruto's hands
>>736101139>No Naruko or Sasuko
>>736067129For whatever reason, Bamco only allows DBZ to experiment with different genres. Every other series just gets a lazy arena fighter.
>>736107048only if you want more Sarada
>>736107223>>736107371what's wrong with it
>>736107048>Is boruto worth reading or watching at all?No. They somehow managed to add more filler episodes and pointless shit than naruto. It would be good if any of that filler added to the plot or fleshed out charaters, or foreshadowed stuff, but nope. It's just shonenslop.
My favorite thing about the muh "Boruto isn't canon" spergs is that they treat fucking Naruto of all things as something sacred that must not be tarnished by inferior sequels. Nigger, Naruto used to be THE newfag series, it's garbage all the way down.
>>736107503that being said, it's not cannon
>>736107503that just means the dip in quality is so massive that even sloppa enjoyers like narutofags are repulsed. That's an impressive level of shit.
>>736107048I'm the odd one out, I actually liked the Boruto filler which was basically just the daily lives of original cast's kids. Once there actually started to be a plot I tuned out.
>>736068938>You are gay for not wanting masculine traits on your girlsWhat an odd thing to say.
>>736094885>kurenaibarefoot, pregnant, forgotten
>>736107862>Masculine traits
>>736107610This, I grew up reading Naruto and in hindsight I fully appreciate that it's the ultimate shonen brainrot sloppa. It was enjoyable slop though. Burrito is the result of said slop being eaten a second time and then shat onto a plate.
>>736096421>missing the best girl
>>736067623Boruto is canon.
>>736099085no wonder WSJ is so anal about their editors, this guy straight up saved the series
>>736107419everything
>>736067129A few really big Bandai Namco projects flopped hard so they had to reshuffle their organisation internally and also cancel a bunch of projects a while, Naruto games being canned and the IP being shelved until further notice were among what was mentioned
>>736108173yea its missing that flat girl with the black hair wearing white, the one that beats up the big titty lady
>>736099478honestly writing realistic women is his best quality as a writer, but normalfags are not ready for this conversation
>>736108060Yes. Women don't tend to have six packs, their fat distribution is different.
>>736108289yes, pretty much everything people love about early naruto is because of Yahagi
THE SAGE OF SIX PACKS
>>736108517jesus, that's a fucking demon. Genuinely looks like a woman who would kill you in some junji ito short
>>736108517>women don't have abdominal musclesthat's an interesting and wrong idea
>>736108517is this thing even real?
>>736108517Would but you gotta put a bag over the plastic face
>>736101441what a incredible page
>>736067745How much of the original cast still being single by Boruto feels weird, Kishimoto paired up a few in the final Naruto character and it's like he told the staff not to pair up anyone he didn't bother with or something
>>736067129The one CAC game they did they made it an always online team based piece of garbage with no story mode, no scenarios beyond tutorials, and no RPG stuff.I'm so fucking mad.
>>736067129I want another Path of Ninja game
>>736099323Wasn't Obito brainwashed by Madara + had a seal put on him preventing him from killing himself or somethingI don't remember fully so maybe I just made that up
>>736070361>Character likes sweets>Name literally translates to red bean paste.Japs are hacks
>>736099323Obito is shit, but also kinohttps://youtu.be/p3zsRbVo1T8?si=RDYN0GMRKfkmZP0Z
>>736099840>>736100287>>736100581>>736100918Vinland Saga is a great manga if you stop reading the moment he gets back home and pretend the rest of the manga just doesn't exist. It's even a nice round number at chapter 100, or 101 if you want the scene where he tells about his adventures to his family. The story starts going full retard after that and nothing of value is lost; it's seriously unbelievable how badly the author fucked everything up.
Naruto is an absolute dumpster fire of an IP that sets up cool characters and ideas but then proceeds to do absolutely nothing with them. Worldbuilding is also non-existent.
>>736101541I watched it fairly recently, it's pure shonen kino with some wonky writing until the war, then it gets bad.
I read Ushio to Tora recently, and I was aware that it was supposed to be popular shounen at the time in Japan and that the author is prolific thereI can tell Naruto took some influence from it but especially in it's last arc, it literally did the big war arc where all the dead characters come back to life for the arc 20 years before Naruto did
>>736109261So around the end of season 2 of the anime? I liked it more than the first season, we went from viking Berserk to a tragic and grounded story of pure sorrow, Einar is a incredible character.
>>736109428The war arc just embodies the problems with Part 2 as a whole.But Naruto's downfall truly began with the Sasuke Retrieval Arc.
>>736108886only girls care about shipping
>>736100581what a massive faggot and buddhism is not about pure pacifism as it teaches to defend oneself and others. he is just some faggot who got his understanding of what buddhism is from movies and is just some hippie
>>736108517The fuck do you mean idiot?
>>736108935>>736102313These games kicked fucking ass, I played through the entire first and second ones using printed out guides from GameFAGs stapled together like books.
Boruto just has no worth as an add-on to the Naruto world. Most if not all abilities and characters in Naruto were used to specifically explore the cycle of pain that makes up the core of the story. In the Boruto manga literally all of that is worthless and instead of fleshing out the other clans or interesting side characters it just keeps trying to make the asspull aliens from the end of Naruto relevant even though they are the least interesting villains in all of manga. Kishimoto should have stuck with putting out a 20 chapter side story every few years and keep the wonder of that world alive instead of throwing it all away because he felt like an absent father and wanted the rest of the world to know.
>>736101840Sasuke being a woman would have made the winning ship too obvious and the final battle would have just been Naruto having rough bloody sex to get the crazy out of Sasuke's system. Then their children would be even more blatant demigods
>>736109864I didn't finish watching the second season, but there is a moment when Thorfinn actually goes back home and meets his mom and sister again. If that was at the end of S2, then yeah, if not, watch the eventual S3 until that point or just read the manga I guess.
>>736100581Whew, that is some good brainrot. I prefer authors who actually tackle the questions nobody dares to ask.
>go to /a/>make a thread on an old classic>no replieswhy does this always freaking happen
>>736109032You're half right. The whole picture is that Obito got mindbroken from seeing Kakashi kill Rin and willingly trained under Madara and followed his ideology, which you could say is brainwashingAt least, that's what it looks like at first. It's not super well done, in part because Obito says this after uttering the words "because you let Rin die", but the idea is that, while seeing his only friend accidentally killing his crush broke him, Obito later learned why it happened: Mist village, geniuses they are, decided to put the Three Tails inside Rin, and when she was brought back to the Leaf village, they'd force it to go berserk from within, turning Rin into an suicide bomb. Rin asked Kakashi to kill her, he refused, so she put herself in the way of his Chidori to die.Finding that out is supposed to be what really made Obito believe that there was no hope for the world. That war could be so cruel and omnipresent that people could be put into situations where murdering your own comrades for "the greater good", or having them give up their own lives, was necessary.LMAO, forget all that shit. Turns out Madara did it. He orchestrated that entire event so he could manipulate Obito into eventually bringing him back to life. How did Madara have any control over the Mist when he was stuck as as an old man on life support in a cave? Don't think about it. Obito's agency as a character, all the decisions he made and the conclusions he reached? Completely artificial, Madara is to blame for everything.As for the seal, Madara, at some point, without Obito knowing, placed a seal on him to one day force him to use the Rinne Tensei ability to exchange Obito's life for Madara's. Which is strange, because Madara would normally never have the chance to make use of such a thing. He'd be dead. He even expresses surprise and annoyance at initially being brought back as a zombie during the war instead of a flesh and blood human. Very strange and definitely not planned.
>>736082381True as well
>>736111307The /a/ that exists today is not the one you first met when you came to this site.
>>736111983Fuck off retard Obito is the worst thing about the entire Manga and nobody older than 13 agrees with you. Madara tried to save it briefly and failed.
>>736067129Hahaha pretty cool thread, OP! Is there a character that could even possibly EVEN TOUCH Madara Uchiha? Let alone defeat him. And I'm not talking about Edo Tensei Uchiha Madara. I'm not talking about Gedou Rinne Tensei Uchiha Madara either. Hell, I'm not even talking about Juubi Jinchuuriki Gedou Rinne Tensei Uchiha Madara with the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan and Rinnegan doujutsus (with the rikodou abilities and being capable of both Amateratsu and Tsukuyomi genjutsu), equipped with his Gunbai, a perfect Susano'o, control of the juubi and Gedou Mazou, with Hashirama Senju's DNA implanted in him so he has mokuton kekkei genkai and can perform yin yang release ninjutsu while being an expert in kenjutsu and taijutsu.I’m also not talking about Kono Yo no Kyūseishu Futarime no Rikudō Juubi Jinchuuriki Gedou Rinne Tensei Uchiha Madara with the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan (which is capable of Enton Amaterasu, Izanagi, Izanami and the Tsyukuyomi Genjutsu), his two original Rinnegan (which grant him Chikushōdō, Shuradō, Tendō, Ningendō, Jigokudō, Gakidō, Gedō, Banshō Ten’in, Chibaku Tensei, Shinra Tensei, Tengai Shinsei and Banbutsu Sōzō) and a third Tomoe Rinnegan on his forehead, capable of using Katon, Fūton, Raiton, Doton, Suiton, Mokuton, Ranton, Inton, Yōton and even Onmyōton Jutsu, equipped with his Gunbai(capable of using Uchihagaeshi) and a Shakujō because he is a master in kenjutsu and taijutsu, a perfect Susano’o (that can use Yasaka no Magatama ), control of both the Juubi and the Gedou Mazou, with Hashirama Senju’s DNA and face implanted on his chest, his four Rinbo Hengoku Clones guarding him and nine Gudōdama floating behind him AFTER he absorbed Senjutsu from the First Hokage, entered Rikudō Senjutsu Mode, cast Mugen Tsukuyomi on everybody and used Shin: Jukai Kōtan so he can use their Chakra while they are under Genjutsu.
>>736112489Reminder that he's hokage level, apparently
>>736111983>Very strange and definitely not planned.A lot of the war arc had that feeling
>>736113140it's been a while since i watched the anime, but aren't all jonin hokage level? being jonin used to be a big deal, now they easily get brushed away.
>>736113309power creep and inconsistency. 2 no name jonin that just got done with a mission and were out of chakra were able to handle the sound four, but then fresh anbu easily get brushed away.
>>736108289its more common than you thinkBleach was originally just gonna be a small time villain-of-the-week mangaIt was the editor for that series that convinced the mangaka to escalate and give us soul society and everything else.
>>736113686Yeah his editor begged him to copy yyh because his editor knew kubo is a hack and togashis is god (he was togashis editor for yyh until togashis fired him and quit)
>>736101791What the hell is it with shounens getting bullshit OP wannabe Super Saiyan forms that ruin the setting recently?Happened with Naruto, and I heard it happened with One Piece. Did something like this also happen with Bleach?
>>736067129I'd like to believe she has a massive bush
Karin was best girl.
>>736113919ichigo did get a super op form to defeat the first big bad, but he wasn't able to use it again after that
>>736113670nta but man...power creep is the ultimate cancer of writing.it literally does creep up on you if you aren't careful about the ending you are going towards.Across all the shit I have read I have only seen a handful of authors in written and drawn media handle it well... and that usually comes down to being willing to END a story before you get too escalated with it.Full Metal Alchemist springs to mind.>>736113919Bleach went a different route. never did the glowy shit.First it had the 3 release forms, then stacked on some hollow powers that were kept a bit more vague... and then it was about combining all of that and using it all as one to be a complete master of yourself, using a final attack to give up his powers.It was great until they kept going with the thousand year blood war, but that's my personal pet peeve. They had a great ending point and didn't end it... and the "half your powers were fake this entire time" bullshit annoyed me.
>>736114057which first big bad are we talking about
>>736114204Aizen.The man for which everything was part of his plan.
>>736114249Even dying?
>>736113919>Did something like this also happen with BleachIt's not wannabe Super Saiyan, but his last form was certainly something. Not a good something. Never should've gone past Hollow Mask and the black-haired Mugetsu form.
Orochimaru got away with EVERYTHING. He's walking around free right now. He's still allowed to do experiments, he's still allowed to be evil. He's behind some of the worst events in naruto history. He's walking around free right now. KILL HIM, "HOKAGE". Worse than epstien, worse than hitler. Just walking around FREE.
>>736114284it really is astounding how horrible Ichigo's design went after AizenFullbring was retarded, I liked the idea of him needing new powers to replace what was lost, but it was immediately pointless because they just gave him his powers back
>Muh BleachPfft it went to shit after W̶a̶f̶f̶e̶n̶ SS arc
>>736114412why you gotta be a player hater?
>>736067802>DattebayoI watched it subbed, is that what his mom says a lot, which is supposed to also be what Naruto says a lot too? I remember the subs said it was "ya know?" but Naruto never said that until it was introduced with his mom.
>>736114412I always thought he died for some reason, or just stopped existing once he killed that old hokage huy.
>>736113670Power creep is definitely a big problem Naruto has but also the Anbu have always just jobbed to be fair
>>736114453the middest of midwit takes
>>736114412Based snekman!
>>736114264Since I didn't read past the point I mentioned here >>736114179yeah, kind of.because he didn't die.>>736114284man that point of mugetsu was some cool shit.it wasn't implied to be something unique to ichigo at all.It was something his dad knew, and thus implied to be some theoretical bullshit any shinigami might reach, especially since stacking hollow powers wasn't unique either.It was cool because it was something personal to ichigo without being some unique special snowflake bs.He just had a deeper understanding of his soul.So much side shit going over the struggles of all the other shinigami far older still struggling to recognize themselves and accept who they are.All ichigo did half the time was simply accept himself.And from that came power.
>>736114510nah a big plot right after that is how the hokage managed to steal part of his soul to seal away his ability to do all those jutsus.And he is going about trying to find a way to get the ability back.And then eventually he finds a way to be restored anyways that... idk if they ever covered how he got his jutsu back or not.
>>736114514>Anbu have always just jobbed to be fairthey get hyped up to be super badass dudes but never do anything cool
>>736114496This pisses me off much more than it should, lol. Jesus christ, I'm literally shaking I need some air haha. Holy shit.
>>736114721>And then eventually he finds a way to be restored anyways that... idk if they ever covered how he got his jutsu back or notOrochimaru's Curse Marks are horcruxes. They all contain his DNA (and I assume an imprint of his soul, somehow), so when he was revived from Anko's mark, he got an entirely new body with functional arms so he could do jutsu again. He also became aware of how shit the manga had gotten.
>>736114496>Kaguya>Obito>MadaraAll bunch of cuck losers. Meanwhile LORD Orochimaru won, all thanks to the power of autism
>>736071636based
>>736114721What was the point of keeping this villain alive if he just quietly disappears and nothing he did is ever resolved? Does he come back in Boruto as a minor villain or something? Or did the author just forget about him?
I think Hinata was way hotter in Part 1. Not even just for UOOOOHHH reasons, her hair is also much better. The hime cut from Shippuden doesn't fit her.
>>736115006I am not talking about the body swap because it was implied that his body swap wouldn't solve the problem or was unusable.He was fully capable of using a lot of his jutsu in shippuden BEFORE sasuke killed him, his butt-nurse integrated his remains, and he got reborn from anko's mark.That is a far cry from how helpless he was afterwards in OG naruto, so clearly he figured out SOMETHING.
>>736115908He gets a new body at the start of the rescue Sasuke arc which is why he doesn't just take sausage's body then
>>736115661>if he just quietly disappears and nothing he did is ever resolved?because that is the exact opposite of what happens.the OG naruto series ends with him getting sasuke to join him regardless.the shippuden series for the longest time is half about around hunting down and denying orochimaru and half about the akatsuki.
>>736116018ahhhhhh that was what it was.thank you, its been like 15 years.
>>736116034Yeah and then Shippuden starts being about old gods and Orochimaru is quietly forgotten.
>>736116151the entire series lost the plot around then so a LOT of shit got stupid.I didn't become aware of how much rage the world tree sparked until many years later
>>736115782for me it's bitch hinata from a movie I've never seen
>>736116251That movie was completely mis-advertised anyway, all the promotional material for it focused on the alternate versions of Naruto's classmates like bitch Hinata and playboy Sasuke and so on, they end up barely even being in the movie
>>736116251
>>736116868yea it is her man? no one else wanted him so where does this come from? does Naruto say the wrong name in his dreams or something kek
>>736117054>ESL newfag tries to blend inanyways, its an alternate reality where he has a different name and the original naruto and sakura get tossed into it for a time.
>>736116212The last villain sucks. All the mysticism around chakra and the idea of the nine tails being more of a legendary creature more akin to a natural disaster to restore balance all comes from outer space aliens. IMO he should have found some way to tie up the Sasuke plot and end it as fast as possible after Pain, but he also should have made Madara the final villain.
>>736117707REAL madara or obito madara?
>>736068263very original
>>736071490Naruto Kai. cuts the entire series down to just 72 episodes. each episode (more like a movie, they're 2-3 hours long a piece) covers a single volume of the manga.
>>736074201raw with Uchiha females
>>736117707>but he also should have made Madara the final villainHe arguably didn't need Madara or Hashirama to make an appearance. It's easy to forget, but Sasuke sets free a lot of Orochimaru's prisoners after killing him, and iirc Suigetsu tells said prisoners to spread the word that Sasuke saved them far and wide.If Kishimoto wanted a war as well as the final Naruto vs Sasuke fight, have Sasuke, after learning the truth about Itachi, become the leader of the Sound village and wage war on everyone else with his loyal followers, out of a belief that the current ninja system is corrupt and the cause of all the suffering in the world (which is true). Parallels Naruto becoming the hero of konoha, too.Doesn't even need to be immediately after Pain, if the story needs an arc to breathe with Sasuke building his forces in the background. No clue where you'd fit Tobi and Kabuto into all of that, but I'm just spitballing.
>>736118270Fem-Uchiha was too powerful a concept.
>>736118412If only...
>>736067129>What the fuck happened to Naruto games?It probably has something to do with Naruto ending over a decade ago.>Why did they get stuck with ultimate ninja stormsBecause those games are all spectacle and battle shounen's target demographic cares about nothing except spectacle.

>>736071460Most of the filler isn't even bad to be fair
>>736118412If Sasuke were female she'd be useless, that's how it goes in this series
>>736101032Reread the series in the storyline, Kishi really wanked Shikamaru & to a lesser extent his team hard, the anime actually made them a bit more likeable than they are in the manga if anything
You just know that Naruto experimented with his Naruko clones at some point.
>>736119298 He could also just make them look like women right? i would never get anything done if i could magic myself a harem, just from raw practice and repeated use i would become the greatest clone user in the world.
>>736119432Even better>Naruto knows how his dick feels like in his own ass
>>736069657Naruto and One Piece have the benefit of being historically vague and thus dont really age. Unlike Bleach which feels very outdated when you try and watch it now due to the old tech already.
>>736071103It was litteraly never mentioned in the show, but Kishimoto has explained it is a chainmail in interviews.
>>736067129wtf he saw jonin coinslot!

>>736101515>immediately after his father diedHe was 5 years old you dumb nigger, what the hell are you talking about. Also he never cared about any of that until part two; the entire purpose of the second half is that he has severe PTSD and doesn't know what his purpose is etc. Then he finally comes to terms with the fact that he murdered people and understands that he's not okay with that, and he's not the smartest guy so tries to find a purpose in life that reflects his sorrow and eagerness to be forgiven. He sways people and makes those around him believe that the world really should be like Thorfinn, but at the same time everyone including Thorfinn eventually understands that you really can't do anything other than keep running until you can't run anymore and are killed.
>>736090773>>736090862Why Korean like this?
>>736104317When I was in school I would watch Naruto on YouTube as well, full episodes including filler. I usually had something to say about each episode in the comments, and for some reason every single one of my comments had thousands of likes and I became famous on that channel with people saying they were looking forward to my comment on the next episode.
>>736067129Anko wanted to fuck genins so bad back then.
>>736114057There was a small time window where we could've had canon SS on naruto.Uzumaki fumbled.

>>736129279Nah I've seen those scenes when they were making the rounds on the internet. Looks like shit.
>>736129767the problem of gear 5 debut is that they could not commit to the cartoon shit, they needed a different animation style for the fight creating a clusterfuck
>>736129279I mean that's kinda the same thing given the powerscaling issue shonens have.Going from>cheeky pirate adventure featuring a guy with simple stretchy powersto>OP super saiyan mode with Mask and nuke powers

>>736076853why are you people always so rude to ESLs? lets see you learn and speak in a different language
>>736067745did this happen because she didnt get laid?
Can we be honest and say a majority of the Akatsuki dying off at the start were jobbers? I thought they weren't even that strong until until Pain just offed Jiraiya and nuked the village by himself.
>>736067129>why does the shonen slop make lazy garbage for its retard fanbase?
>>736134534They weren't jobbers. But just because you defect from your village doesn't mean you're suddenly overwhelmingly powerful. It's like if Kakashi decided to go rogue. He's very dangerous, but if you outnumber him 10:1 with a bunch of his former colleague jonin they're gonna capture or kill him.
>>736134534>jobbersthey all had specialized fields, that's why they hunted in pairs, but some of them were retards that did whatever the fuck they want and died because of it
>>736134534Deidara>definitely not a jobber, he was hardcore, only died to uchiha hax bullshit which is understandableSasori>lost on purpose to troll his grandma Hidan>actually killed a Jonin, successfully hunted the 2-Tails in his introduction, said the fight was easy - only died to a 200 IQ preptime batman scheme from the author's self-insert. A fucking circle.Kakuzu>was effortlessly reaming the shit out of Kakashi and like 5 other people at the same time until Naruto showed up and made him lose 50 IQ points because Naruto is the main character with a new technique to show offI think they were pretty impressive actually
>>736134534>hidden ninja village>the size of a fucking metropolis
>>736139124the whole "hidden village" title is just metaphoricalthey're on maps, they're the official military branch of an entire countryeverybody knows where that place is they're not actually trying to literally hide it in leaves
>>736123804CC2 had to fight pretty hard to get Bandai to fund it and it was neglected for an entire decade. Digimon is only getting new games because the community banded together to buy all the shit they've been pedling rather than actually producing good content.>v-pet>literally just re-releasing old content on old hardware>only real change to the pcb is requiring a different battery than they originally took>not even adding an internal rechargable battery>colour versions are same as old versions with no innovation outside of a colour screen>at least these have an internal chargeable battery now>announce a new budget line>it's just a remake of version 1 again>same pcb>requires batteries again>black and white for some reason despite tamagotchi being at the same price point>has less features than tamagotchi>has less features than the previously released anniversary editions>has cool face art thoughI'm guessing the only reason they care is because the tcg is selling like hotcakes and the community scooping up their overpriced premium bandai digimon v-pets. I have a handful myself so I know firsthand how lackluster and behind these are.
damns
>>736071082I don't care what anyone says I just KNOW that Sakura was envious of those fat tits upon seeing them. I always wondered if the girls of Konoha had like "girl talk" I'm sure they did, maybe talked/gossiped about other girls. Sakura was jealous of Tsunade's body. Hell, Sakura always felt more bisexual if anything. She was obsessed with Sasuke, but honestly a girl could have shown romantic interest in her and she probably would have rollled with it.
>>736134534Only Konan was really a jobber. The rest had good showings along the way. And it even kind of stings to call Konan a jobber since she was only defeated by something absolutely ridiculous.
I had such a crush on Rukia and Sakura growing up. Sakura was more feminine than Rukia, but Rukia had a girly side to her. It really just made me want a "tomboy" girlfriend even though I wouldn't consider either one of them to be "tomboys" but I always liked shorter hair on a girl if they can pull it off. Some girls look absolutely hot as fuck with shorter hair.
>>736142024it's hard to really get a handle on Konan because she never really does much outside of that bullshit moment you mentionedall we get from her otherwise is>gets defeated by jiraiya in like 2 moves, but was she really even trying? >clashed with the whole Aburame clan during the invasion and didn't take any serious damage, despite them being a pretty dangerous clan (don't underestimate shino and his bug family)
