No, Zabuza arc was peak naruto. Afterward show became shounenshit

no it wasn't zabuza arc could have been cut in half and been just as good

Nah, this was the arc that started the unending exposition in fights that turned shippuden into such a shit fest

if all of them except shikamaru actually died like they were supposed to (considering he fact htat they were pretty much useòess in the later arcs)
also sasuke not killing naruto makes no sense
kimimaro dying at the convinient moment is bullshit
the fact alone that the hidden leaf sent 4 genins after dpecial trained Orochimaru soldiers makes no sense to begin with.
literally the worst pre-pain arc in the show

This arc ruines naruto

>peak
well to be fair an abyss can have an sharp edge on the bottom

Retard

this and gaara's arc are easily the worst fucking arcs in the whole naruto series. even below war arc

nah, it is the downfall

Does anyone actually by the fact that Tsunade sanction genins to go after orochimaru's personalfags cause everyone else is busy. Did, she honestly allowed her local nuke to go after people who killed have easily killed him. What if Naruto died or accidently release Kuruma, Tsunade is a retarded bitch,

I'll never not be mad that the sand ninja stole Kiba and Lee's last moment to shine. At least Shikamaru got wanked in Shippuden...

The Zabuza arc was peak and everything before the first time skip was good. After that it was tumbling down and then you'd ask yourself where did all those years go...

Early Shippuden was peak Naruto.

I agree with this because pic related got some screen time.

Peak naruto was hidan&kakuzu arc aka shikamaru best boy.

hidan was peak

Peak Naruto is beginning of Shippuden to the end of Kage Summit

choji should have died after using butterfly powers. he peaked there anyways

Zabuza was the worst og arc faggot, nobody wants to watch that land of waves brat cry for 10 chapters

/thread

The War "Arc" isn't an arc. It's more of a saga than anything. There are 5 arcs.
>Countdown
>Confrontation
>Climax
>Birth of the Ten Tails Jinchurki
>Kaguya

Thread.

I'm tired of the retarded contrarians in this thread.

Sasuke Retrieval arc had the best strategies, the best fights, and that's before Nardo vs Sauce, it also capped off character development for nearly everyone.

That's before getting to Naruto vs Sasuke.

What moments did Land of Waves had? Besides Sasuke protecting Naruto, that's the part I recall enjoying. Zabuza was pretty boring but his relationship with Haku was the only interesting trait.

One of the biggest missed opportunities was not having this team come back together for a redemption mission.
It would have been perfect to see how they’d evolved from their previous failure.
Bonus if it included a brief clash with Sasuke.

Peak Naruto was when it wasn't posted on this board

It really wasn't

THIS
the fight with Zabuza was so good it was Jojo tier
then it became a poor imitation of Dragon Ball

Key word on poor, Kishimoto is too lazy to draw fights with good choreography.

It was definitely the arc with the most screentime for best girl.

peak naruto for me was the build up of the mystery of pain and the reveal that tobi is actually in charge of everything

Yeah temari was good that arc.
