Do people collectively agree that Kiba got shafted the most in Part 1? I honestly thought that was either, Tenten, Shino, or Ino. Really the whole damn cast was underutilized. Shonen writers need to stop cluttering their casts, man. It fucks with people's expectations, because they think everyone will get focus, or be relevant.

Genderbending only makes shit gayer user

When Kishimoto is writing Shikamaru, he says to himself “Literally me” under his breath.

4 volumes left after this one to part 2

Kishi shouldn't have created another team 7. We needed these thrown together teams that we got during the last phase of the Chunin exams and Sasuke's Retrieval.

These covers are so soulless now.

How many of you are going to stop reading these threads when it happens?

While i agree, there is much to do with Kiba, he's literally dog Naruto.

He gets plenty to do in this volume

It feels so weird when they don't update the characters in these pages to fit the current art style

Me.

And not too far off from the shitposting part of Naruto.

Remind me why Shino is so OP, again? I can't tell if we're just hyping him up, or not.

Part 2 is better

Looks like they got a new translator.

More people will unironcally start reading once we reach that point.

The first half of Part 2 is the best stretch of the manga by far. Better than all of Part 1. Part 2 gets a bad rep due to its terrible back half, but before it, Kishi and his team were on a roll. This storytime will open your eyes.

Part 2 starts really slow with the first couple of arcs

So this volume is going to be all Kiba?
