>shit on Naruto for years because annoying fanbase and anime elitist >bored as fuck and finally decide to give a read >Amazing characters, fights, themes, villains, and plot >finally finish show and go online to talk about it with other fans >Its just bitching about trivial shit like why did Sakura punch Naruto in episode 75 or why did Kakashi get Perfect Susanoo
Holy shit its good, like unironically really fucking good the fanbase is shit though and needs to give Kishimoto a fucking apology, Naruto has the best characters ive seen in any shounenshit, they’re actually more than 1 dimensional tropes
>b-but it ripped off Hunter x Hunter!!? Who the fuck cares? Hunter x Hunter is probably the only other good shonen besides this one, im glad it did
Always liked Naruto but it's a similar thing for me with Bleach. I was lead to believe that it was bad by a handful of people who probably only watched that one video about its decline. I watched and read it and I liked it as much as Naruto. The manga was solid throughout, but the anime kind of dragged at some points. I added Bleach's 1st 2 arcs to my "must watch" list because it was pretty dope.

Naruto isn’t terrible. It’s even good at times. Couldn’t pay me to call it amazing though.
>the fanbase is shit though The series has been complete for a while now so you might have missed the discussions you were interested in. It's always nice to see more people enjoying Naruto and if there's anything particular you want to discuss, go ahead and mention it.
>Introduce the show with the concept of inteligent battles with every ninja using his arsenal + skillset to win battles >Ends the show with DBZ-tier battles where everything is just shitting energy balls all over the place
>Tells how Naruto is a cursed plebian that defies society >Turns out he is the son of the Hokage, his mother was of a very strong clan and the curse is actually a blessing
>Gives Naruto the cute big tiddy waifu even tho he never really did nothing to deserve her
Naruto is dogshit. Being decent for the first 5 seasons doesn't make a terrible show something legendary.
I wanna see a Boruto series episode where Sasuke opens a portal into a parallel dimension where he won his final fight against Naruto in the Valley of the End and shaped the world according to his ideals, and as he walks around it he compares and contrasts this world with the world in which Naruto won that he came from.

Fights were literally the WORST part by the end. There's a reason Kakashi VS Obito, which Kishimoto didn't even write, is sucked off so hard and even posted in good animation or best fight threads. And it's criminally short.
>Naruto gets shat on to be "cool" Kill yourself, retard.

>kids who read Naruto and Bleach after people started watching youtube anime reviews are now posting on Zig Forums about how they're great and underappareciated I need to go to some like Zig Forumsutist retirement home site, don't I?

>Ends the show with DBZ-tier battles Nice meme. You're probably the same user that spams that opinion in every thread. >Gives Naruto the cute big tiddy waifu Oh so that's where your anger stems from. Isn't it time to get over your loss, sakurafag?
Grayson Davis
Part 1 is alright but it goes off the rails in Part 2
Noah Ortiz
>this much strawman >"Everybody who disagrees with my shitty opinion must be samefagging or some society!" Last (you) just so you don't kill yourself, shitty bait thread.
Bentley Clark
That timeline would be dead because emperor Sasuke would have had to fight Kinshiki and Momoshiki by himself and lost.
Nicholas Edwards
Based as fuck. Until Chainsaw Man rolled up, I thought I'd never enjoy a shounen series as much as I enjoyed Naruto. HxH is similarly great, but the hiatuses really killed me on it. I'm definitely gonna go back and read the whole thing if it ever finishes though.
Brody Green
>Last (you) Good, it's time for you to leave the thread of a series you don't like.
Naruto is legit amazing up until the Pain arc. It looses some steam after it but still has some sparks of brilliance especially in both Sasuke centric arcs; Taka and Kage Summit. Then it starts to slowly descend into madness at the Ninja War Arc and it's pretty damn obvious because the written literally bends himself apart to allow the plot to progress. Asspull after asspull and lots of "HAHA THAT WAS MY PLAN ALL ALONG" coming from all of the villains. It still has really cool moments like Itachi and the Kages coming back but man that whole final arc did NOT do justice to the journey that it took to get there. Also I call bullshit on the reincarnation thing that was done just to simplify the circle of hate narrative. Also also fuck the Black Zetsu reveal.
Black Zetsu twist sucked, but at least Naruto got to the root of the cycle of hatred and sealed that bastard.

>Asspull after asspull Which ones do you mean?
Hunter Evans
You've got it wrong my guy. I've been watching anime my whole life and reading manga since around 2005. Heck, I've watched Naruto since it was new. I just figured i'd give Bleach a go since it was supposedly coming back and wanted to not be out of the loop. I had seen some of it on cartoon network back in the day but I think I was too invested in other series (like Naruto) to give it its fair shake.
Ian Edwards
>Or they just didn't get the whole thing. This isn't high literature, retard.
Carter Nelson
>Every big villain has another bigger scarier villain behind them that was manipulating them and everything going on the whole time, except for the next guy up the ladder who was doing the same thing to him and so on Absolutely obnoxious writing
Jason Rivera
There is none, user. Just help deal with retarded shitposting.
Gavin Campbell
>Amazing characters, fights, themes, villains, and plot are you braindead
I WAS a fanboy of this series, but it's pretty much garbage after a certain point
Robert Hughes
This isn't HxH* FIFY
Justin Carter
Off the top of my head. >Sage chakra Madara >Limbo clones >The apparition of the SO6 >The convenient Black Zetsu reveal >Kakashi with both Mangekyou >Sakura's seal
Elijah Price
I love it when narutards pretend that they used to be against naruto and then realize they were wrong because naruto is some sort of god sent show. Fuck off Narutard. Accept that your series is shit and stop doing these charades because you can't handle the insecurities of liking a shit series.
Xavier Peterson
Back in 2010 when it was even cooler to shit on Naruto, I remember that people complained about Naruto obsession with Sasuke lol. Niggas got pleb filtered
Chase Murphy
>>Sage chakra Madara He stole it from Hashirama. >Limbo clones What about them? It was explained how they work and they're most likely Madaras Mangekyou Sharingan ability. >SO6P He had some of his chakra stored waiting for the right moment. >Black Zetsu reveal It's a plot twist. >Kakashi with DMS Spiritual possession from Obito. >Sakuras seal What about it?
Brayden Cruz
it's still enjoyable though. this is a children's cartoon, not fucking dostoevsky
Christian Morgan
Rent free
Jace Barnes
No one talks about the incredible themes because you can't casually dismiss them in half a sentence.
Colton Davis
Just like real life.
Cooper Adams
No its not, when the story squeezes out Kaguya as the last turd of a final boss with absolute minimal build up, no personal stakes with the main characters, and the same puppet master controlling everyone thing all the villains before her had its not enjoyable, it fucking sucks. Madara, Nagato, Black Zetsu, Obito, Kaguya, Its the same formula over and over if you wanna dunk your head in the trough and gobble up the schlop be my guest but don't pretend what you're eating isn't retard schlop
Samuel Parker
I like a lot of characters in Naruto, I just have 4 complaints
Naruto and Sakura obsession with Sasuke was cringe and autistic
Power Creep was terrible
Jiraiya dying and not being the Hiko Seijuro of the series
Sasuke and by extension any uchiha characters just existing, these fagots were so edgey and their "motivations" were completely nonsensical.
