In hindsight, not really a very advanced sounding move. Seems like most jounin with decency at ninjutsu and chakra control could prolly easily learn this move. why didnt everyone and their mother in the ninja forces of the hidden leaf learn it?
Kishi is fucking awful at everything he does
Also, fuck off Narushits
>>135625198
>considered a great master technique
It was an incomplete technique that Minato didn't even thought it was worthy of passing to someone else, because as said, it wasn't complete.
Remember when Naruto had strategy, people actually used weapons consistently, the Konoha 12 were relevant and notion of "working hard" actually meant something?
Ahh good times. Part 1 will always blow away the craptastic Part 2 in everyway shape or form.
>>135626192
except for sheer amount of filler. Part 2 just might be taking the cake on that one.
>>135626192
prolly safe to say Chuunin Exams saga was the peak of the show
>>135626403
What purpose does the chuunin exams serve if the most powerful remain as gennins ?
>>135626478
actual content that doesn't consist solely of Naruto and Arc Senpai does X, everyone else chills back to some floyd
>>135626265
No. The show just had too many plot holes, reverse characterization, shitty deaths, zombies and one of the worst final villians I seen in a manga in years in Koguya.
Part 1 is leaps and bounds better than Part 2. The only reason so many people finished Part 2 was because Kishi sucked in so many readers with how great Part 1 was. Hell even the Naruto vs Sasuke fight in Part 1 was much better than the shitty Part 2 fight.
>>135626606
I think he gave up writing in the 4th world war arc. Reviving old characters like Zabuza or Asuma is a lame move.
>>135625976
it was still a completely decent attack. I mean this incomplete technique could compete with chidori. Still no reason why so many more people couldnt/wouldnt benefit from learning it.
did naruto went through the exams, or did he just get auto promoted?
>>135626761
in the wrestling universe. we call that a "Cheap Pop"
>>135626863
He stayed as genin through the entire series.
>>135625198
In Boruto, Rasengan seems to be a pretty common technique.
>>135626919
at least One Punch Man gradually rose through his ranks instead of staying a C Rank.
At least Luffy gradually rose in bounty to become a super nova and then a WG's most wanted, instead of staying a low bounty rookie.

>>135626976
>Seems like most jounin with decency at ninjutsu and chakra control could prolly easily learn this move
>>135626976
Well he technically is at the highest rank now.
>>135627044
yeah yeah. Jiariya knew it from Minato and taught it to naruto. kakashi picked it up, cause why not he is haxy at stealing moves.
then konohamaru learned it for some reason cause... i guess we all needed him to have a situation to use it.
but what about the rest of the poele? i mean, honestly, its a chuunin level move for complexity, with jounin level power.
>>135627044
I gave up on this garbage ages ago do we ever see his face?
>>135627214
as a kid.
>>135626976
I don't know what's your point.
Hero rank and a pirate's bounty is determined by their visibility, not by a test. Naruto gained visibility through his series.
>>135627214
>>135627237
>>135627113
why bother? It's a close range attack and it's somewhat loud. Might as well just use a kunai and stab your enemy.
>>135627044
>not posting the original manga version
>>135625198
>Seems like most jounin with decency at ninjutsu and chakra control could prolly easily learn this move.
I know most people dropped the manga during the asshaterry that was after the timeskip, but this is addressed.
Kakashi eventually says to naruto, that rasengan is piss easy to learn and he has to infuse his own elements into it.
The reason why others don't learn it is because it was essentially considered an incomplete technique. Original Rasengan is no more powerful than a Tsunade Punch.
>>135627242
Naruto never even became a fucking Chunin yet this guy becomes the Hokage?
What is the point of having ranks when the Hokage himself bypassed all the other ranks? Really shit on the whole ninja ranking hierarchy.
>>135627242
point is, naruto's world building is fail that they have such a shitty and underdeveloped promotion system thats as simple as "Wow some judges on one of 2 specific days of a year"
and the fact that if thats the case, half the genin cast prolly shoulda been promoted after the chuunin exams saga.
like nobody can recognize you and your talents beyond those two days.
>>135627345
Hokage is an elected position, meaning even thought it is normally the most powerful ninja in the village it can be anyone.
>>135627404
And yet naruto became it. not, say, Shikamaru who was a talented ninja, and a genius who in a political position as such could have thrived even more, and is just lazy enough to prefer such a desk job.
>>135627302
because kunai < punching in the world of naruto. Kunai and shurikens only existed to remind us they were suppose to be ninjas.
>>135627345
Hokage isn't a rank, it's a title, they are chosen by their recognition. Stop being retarded, from all the things that you could complain you had to choose something that makes perfect sense.
>>135627516
Naruto is the hero of the village who gained everyone's respect. Shikamaru didn't do such things, the people want Naruto, not Shikamaru.
>>135627516
Naruto was the hero of the leaf village, father was hokage and the most powerful ninja in the village.
By the time Kakashi gave up the position naruto had matured enough that they were willing to pass the position onto him with shikamaru as his advisore.
>>135627568
wasnt it some old elders council who votes it in though, not the citizens?
Because even though senin are great legends in ninja arts, no fucking person outside of some inner circles seemed to know who they were, especially not enough to elect Tsunade.
>>135627568
So fuck smarts, rankings and best for positions but be a hero and you can be a Hokage. Grade A writing Kishi.
>>135627658
Well he is quite strong and all the politics are handled by shikamaru (I'd assume).
>>135627658
Do you become president by being popular of for having more diplomas?
>>135627658
>Grade A writing Kishi
but that's how it works in the real world, do you really think the king/president of any country is the best for their position? just look at the retard Spain has for president
>>135627658
Pretty sure if someone managed to save a country from a big crisis people would want him as president.
>>135627658
Plus Shikamaru didn't want to be hokage.
>>135626803
Chidori was an incredibly shitty attack that in no way was worth the massive chakra cost it had.
It's a fucking melee thrust. A fucking sword can do the job just as well.
The Narutards are actually trying to convince themselves that Naruto would be a better Hokage than Shikimaru.
Unbelievable. Everything besides power Shik beats Naruto pretty handily.
Reminder that the greatest captain is still spying on Orochimaru, knowing well that he'll either be there until he dies of old age or gets killed by orochimaru if he ever decides to turn bad again
>>135628180
Shikamaru loses to everyone in will to do something useful.
>>135628544
No that is wrong. Azuma's death changed him and so for the greater good of the village he would be proactive as all hell and make the best decision.
>>135628450
He probably shoots the shit with Juugo and Suigetsu all the time
>>135628110
it could break a sword. it could also break powerful defenses that would snap a sword in two
>>135626761
The series was gradually declining since the Chuunin Exams, but the breaking point was the "Sasuke hunts for Itachi" arc. That's where all of the irreversibly bad plot points started.
>Orochimaru's anticlimactic death.
>Sharingan can do basically anything
>Itachi was a good guy who couldn't even kill his brother, despite being able to kill the rest of his family
>goofy comic relief Tobi is actually one of the main villains
>Sasuke wants to destroy Konoha for flimsy reasons
Only decent stuff after that were the parts with Pain, and even that had a weak ending to sour it.
Kakashi has a 1000 jutsus but barely uses any of them in the series.
Fucking Kishi. Instead we get Kakashi getting power from a dead guy to do a Susano.
>>135628827
but didn't Itachi let his brother lived because he was innocent, while the rest of the entire Uchiha family was planning a coup?
I seem to remember something like that
>Chidori
>Assassination technique
>So loud, an entire village can hear it
good thing that's when I dropped the series
>>135628993
Was Sasuke really the only child in the clan? That sounds hard to believe
>>135626192
>no strategy
This has been exaggerated far too much.
A great example is the entirety of the Edo Hokages helping out the Alliance against Juubito
Or Naruto vs 3rd Raikage
Or Edo Minato, Rock Lee and Gaara setting up 8th Gates Gai for the first hit
Or Gaara beating the 2nd Mizukage by giving everyone a fucking physics lesson
Or Kakashi, Gai and Naruto finding a loophole in Kamui to finally hit Obito
Or Sasuke vs Deidara
Or Itachi and Sasuke vs Kabuto
There was a lot of strategy in employeed in Part 2, the problem was that the explosions and gay memes distracted you
>>135626478
The show at that point was still about being a ninja and a teamworker. Stealth, intelligence, and leadership counted for something. Of course, this already faded by the end of Naruto 1, I recall Naruto and Gaara having a Godzilla fight.
>>135628993
yeah then he killed other children and babies. And apparently his girlfriend
it gets wonky especially his age during all of this
>>135629050
It's literally said the assassination part is because you need to go sanic fast when you do it.
>pour chaika into your hand
>>135629087
>Itachi and Sasuke vs Kabuto
Kabuto had them fucking dead to rights, then Itachi asspulls yet another eyehax power
>>135629087
Or Naruto vs Pain before Hinata got rekt and he chimped out
>>135627568
I guess it is like real life then. Dont give us the most qualified guy, vote the loud mouth that makes us feel good.
>>135629087
I agree but,
>Itachi and Sasuke vs Kabuto
>Itachi suddenly pulls out a technique that perfectly counters Kabuto
Not to mention the incomprehensible art. That was the worst fight in the manga, and one of the worst I've read in general.
>>135628876
and continually just using the jutsus we just seen others do; Fireball, Water Dragon, Rasengan. only real exception is Chidori which he instead showed to sasuke first, rather than vice versa.
And no. i don't count the dogs. cause theyre stupid.
>>135629087
The problem was that /a/ doesn't know what the fuck they're talking about. They want to hate on Naruto and that's it.
>>135629094
>Of course, this already faded by the end of Naruto 1, I recall Naruto and Gaara having a Godzilla fight.
I also remember the same thing happening between Minato and the Kurama(explicitly said to provoke tsunamis just by moving one tail). IN THE FIRST FUCKING PAGE OF THE MANGA.
>>135626192
>>135629162
>>135629087
Fucking Shikamaru pulling a Batman gambit against Kakuzu and Hidan
>>135629162
>Used two Rasengans as smoke bombs
Yep, that shit was great. Sage mode makes you capable of spamming high output moves.
Biggest problem with naruto story as a whole can prolly be traced to the Uchihas.
Before it was jsut a small part of things. it involved the supporting main character, sasuke, naturally. it was his motivation
by the end of it, the Uchiha substory became;
>The basis of Konoha's creation and the relation with the first hokage
>Three main villains
>Dark past of kakashi
>Sharingan became way too much.
at some point everything in the naruto universe revolved around the uchihas in some major way.
>>135629367
It really only made him capable of using Rasenshuriken 3 times instead only once
And he ended up winning with a regular rasengan, after pretending to be a bunch of rocks
Also they were just normal smoke bombs
>>135629513
Tobirama was way too good for Konoha
>>135629172
Naruto WAS the most qualified guy. Did you even dunno, READ the fucking manga? At all? Did you pay attention?
Naruto wasn't super smart but he was caring, compassionate, strong and he protected EVERYONE, one time, two times, three times and so on. His personality makes people want to follow him, he's a great leader.
>>135627320
>Kakashi eventually says to naruto, that rasengan is piss easy to learn
Thats what we call backpedaling
>>135627568
Am I the only one who remembered the requirements for being the Hokage was to learn at least 1000 different techniques? Remember how Naruto only learned 2 and magical jesus genes ex machina'd his way to hokage?
>>135629315
Yeah.
Shikamaru got rid of an OP villain by being super smart.
>>135629814
You do realize there's a 10 year time-skip right. Just because we never saw Tobirama and Hashirama use 1000 jutsu doesn't mean they didn't know how to use them.
And there was no such thing as a requirement to become Hokage. It all goes back to the will of fire or whatever
>>135629814
>Am I the only one who remembered the requirements for being the Hokage was to learn at least 1000 different techniques?
So there has only ever been two Hokage? The first two, the fourth, the fifth and the seventh all knew much less than 1000 jutsu.
I'm going to have to get you to cite your sources with the page in which it was stated as a requirement.
The only thing I can think of that is related to your point is Kakashi being known as "the Copy Ninja who has copied over 1000 jutsu" or possibly Hiruzen's stated reputation of "The Professor" for "knowing every Jutsu in the village" which I would suspect does not include Hiden jutsu.
>>135629814
That was supposed to be the Third Hokage, who was also said to be the strongest Hokage. Until the First was reintroduced.
>>135629172
One of the most important qualities to being a leader is to have people who actually WANT to be led by you. That's what leading is. It takes a certain kind of magnetic personality and charisma that people can really get behind to make them willingly be under your command
You can still be "in charge", but if nobody fucking wants you to be in charge, that's not leading. That's dictating
>>135629552
No, he actually used two Rasengan as smoke bombs at one point.
This was one of my favorite characters from part. Was bad ass how he controled sound waves from that speaker to fuck up people's equilibrium. Really like his character design and personality too. He seemed like he had real potential to be a good recurring villain. Instead of choosing flesh him out more; Kishi decided to have him die like a bitch.
>>135629917
>No one with a sharingan ever copied any Hiden jutsu
Fuck, if I had the sharingan you bet I'd be picking those up
>>135627658
Shikamaru WANTED to be Naruto's advisor. He was one of his first votes
A good leader makes talented people want to use their talents to help the leader
>>135629714
So essentially what I said: hes qualified because he makes people feel good
Ill never forget that this is a childs cartoon but I'm considering shit like politics and military defense and other shit like infrastructure. Just making people feel good isnt going to handle all of that. In that sense, Donald Trump is the most qualified guy to run the most powerful nation on earth because hes going to make us feel like America is great again despite never holding any political positions. And he still is more qualified becaus hes actually intelligent and ran organizations and businesses.
Naruto basically just fights people and makes friends.
>>135630122
I'd pick up the Nara clan jutsu at the very least since it seems to actually be a jutsu you could copy on sight.
Not so sure about stuff like Ino's mind transfer or Choji's multi-size.
>>135629944
Those three white spheres in the fourth panel are smoke bombs.
>>135629552
>>135629552
>It really only made him capable of using Rasenshuriken 3 times instead only once
It gave him even more super strenght, precog, sensor capabilities, taijutsu capabilities and a basically unlimited chakra pool(well Kurama botched that one up but whatever).
>>135630090
The entire sound village could have been stretched out more.
>>135630201
You, personally,wouldn't feel the same about Donald Trump if you couldn't fucking stand him as a person
You would ignore his qualifications and just hate the idea of having him there
Donald Trump makes YOU feel good, even if you can't explain why
That's why you can focus on his qualifications in the first place. Otherwise you wouldn't care
>>135630201
But you're talking like Naruto is a bad Hokage because he's not a 200 IQ genius like Shikamaru.
You don't need that to be a good Hokage, you don't need to be a genius. Just because he's not a genius doesn't mean he's dumb as a brick and doesn't know about how to lead a country, he prepared himself for 10 years, you're literally judging a 17 y/o kid not being 40 y/o mentally.
So no you're not right faggot.
>>135627275
What people were expecting? A hot girl?
Kakashi's face isn't very different from most characters.
>>135630431
Naruto's ideal of being Hokage was literally to just be the best ninja in the village. Not to lead the masses. not to harbor peace relations. not with ny system in mind that will better prosper the future.
naruto's plan was literally to become Hokage, and thats it. He never cared about the position. He just wanted to say he was it.
for people to actually elect and pass the title to him, even if he did save the village and become a hero, on that basis alone, are complete one side retards
they say the worst person for a position is the one who wants it the most.
>>135630570
>Naruto's ideal of being Hokage was literally to just be the best ninja in the village. Not to lead the masses. not to harbor peace relations. not with ny system in mind that will better prosper the future.

>>135630616
he still a baka. even as an adult. being a really good guy is great. doesnt make you any smarter nor anymore qualified for a political societal leadership role.
>>135630570
So you're literally judging Naruto by how he was as a kid even if we know he matured and changed over the years.
I'm not sure if this is bait or you're just buttmad for some reason Naruto is Hokage but it doesn't make sense. Naruto is around 30 y/o when he becomes a Hokage, all the time before that he actually grew up. Hell read the first chapter of the manga and the last chapter, you can see he's grown up.
Just because he's goofy and not a 200 IQ genius doesn't mean he's an idiot that doesn't know how to lead a country.
>>135630701
Wait does the Hokage even lead the country, dont they have like actual leaders?
>>135630656
meant by it was series/franchise as a whole. gear fago 6 fag chakra superfag god superfag
>>135630570
You're thinking of Naruto when he was 12 years old, not the way he was at the end of Part 2
His mission was to reform the shinobi system so that it didn't fucking ruin everyone's lives
He wanted to fix what was making all the villages feel compelled to kill each other
Did you miss that existential crisis when Nagato was asking him how he planned on doing that?
By the time he fought Sasuke, after successfully helping the Alliance work together, he got the conviction to try uniting people through the common good. Sasuke, on the other hand, didn't share his faith in people to change without being forced to by a common enemy
>>135628110
Which is why it is completely useless unless you have the sharingan to counter the tunnel vision it gives you. Which is why only 2 people ever learned it.
>>135630816
but anyone can use Rasengan, which can rival chidori in an incomplete form.
>>135630816
With even the basic form of chidori being as strong as it seemed was the 80 foot running start really needed?
>>135627275
horey sheit
I didn't think they'd ever do it
the absolute madman
>>135630890
haha... thats a good one. good question.
>>135627568
>Shikamaru didn't do such things, the people want Naruto, not Shikamaru.
Shikamaru was the only one to pass the exam when they were kids every step of the way.
He was promoted constantly and eventually made the equivalent of a army commander.
Naruto may be the "hero" due to circumstance, but Shikamaru is the real fucking deal. Through his own abilities and not genetic or situational probability.
I would not be surprised if Shikamaru flat out turned down the position to instead be Naruto's political and military advisor (which he did become). This scenario sounds much more believable.
>>135630691
Not him but the other anon.
>he still a baka. even as an adult.
That's because it's his character. He's a baka only when he's joking around, when he needs to get things done, he gets them done.
Pic related, ends the whole drama just by Glaring at onion kid. Finds them a home and thinks about making them fit for society with discipline and training.
Read the other things he tells to Sarada too.
>>135630732
The Hokage protects the country and he's the public face, he also leads lots of shit. The actual "leaders" are the feudal lords or whatever, we see them around a couple times, they don't really seem to understand shit about ruling countries nor do they seem too interested in that. So you can guess the Hokage and his advisers do that too.
>>135630890
Well the enemy isn't just going to stand still while you WALK to them, and the move is too fucking loud to be a stealth attack
>>135630743
>series/franchise as a whole
No you didn't.
There wasn't filler in the manga, which is why it took so god damn long to finish and at times seemed like it took forever to update.
They made twice as many tv shows as there was original content.
>>135627237

all these... sound vaguely familiar.... familiar mistakes. That should have been learned from somebodys warnings a long time ago.
>>135627302
See that water tower?
Rasenan's gonna do a bit more damage than the kunai, and it can't be blocked or partied by anything not equally lethal
>>135631267
Chidori is not an ambush attack, why don't you read the manga.
You literally charge head on and fuck them with superspeed and a thrust to the heart, it's incredibly powerful too(and it cuts a lot because lightning manipulation) so they can't really block it.
>>135631067
Oh no he has Diarmuid's love spot.
That's probably why he hides his face.
>>135631267

That's just action manga (not just Shonen) in general.
Best fights.
Jiraya vs Pain
Pain vs Naruto pre resurrection
Kakuzu vs Kakashi team
Kisame vs Bee/Guy
>>135632092
Naruto's rasengan is like the kamehameha.
It is specifically designed to, no matter how strong it is, only be able to kill movie villains.
Got to love how Jiariya made Sasuke into an even bigger bitch than he already is in his fan fiction inside drunk bitches dream.
>Has an older brother who adores him and never went on the genocide mission
>His father is hard on him but it's just tough love to make him stronger
>His father respected him enough to give him a high ranking position.

>The village idiot learning a powerful jutsu caused him to sperg out and go rouge.
>>135632166

>>135625198
Incomplete technique that wastes a lot of chakra. It's supposed to be elemental, but only Naruto managed that.
And yeah, he had to cheat to use it even incomplete, because it's fucking hard.
Honestly I always liked the rasengan, and how it was learned. Cool technique.
>>135625198
>Seems like most jounin with decency at ninjutsu and chakra control could prolly easily learn this move. why didnt everyone and their mother in the ninja forces of the hidden leaf learn it?
Rasengan is A rank jutsu for a reason, it's not easy to learn. Also there's the fact that you don't go around teaching everyone and their mom your personal jutsus retard.
Minato probably would've teached it when it was complete, he didn't think
>Hey i'm going to die when i'm 20 something so I should just go and teach them this incomplete jutsu now
Or he maybe never planned on teaching it to anyone, who knows.
Jiraiya sure as hell gave 0 fucks about Konoha so of course he didn't teach it, Kakashi never had students before Naruto's group either.
I feel like Naruto would have been a lot better if Rock Lee was the MC.Same with Boku no Hero Academia but the creator probably pussed out instead.
naruto would've been 20% cooler if Substitution jutsu was never a thing, or an ability like 1 character could use.
>>135632166
I'd add Orochimaru vs the third hokage and Sasuke vs Itachi for all dem eyehax.
Sakura vs Sasori was really cool too, but only in the anime.
>>135632166
Konan vs Obito
>>135632300
I like Rock. really. but sometime you gotta face the fact that you like characters so much more because you got them in smaller doses, and to get them as a MC would likely ruin much appeal.

Obitos everything proof shield made every fight he was in super boring.
He also kept losing that fucking arm because i guess kishi didn't want it to seem like he's written a terrible character or something.

Is that from the camrip or is there a better rip out now?
>>135632577
>Series about the MC with no powers having to outwit his opponents who have insane powers isn't as good as another manga about punching harder.
>>135632577
BnHA MC is already annoying as fuck. Everyone's better than him, even the bully is more interesting.
>>135632699
I see you wanted it to become Mx0
We know how well that turned out
>>135632699
Yes, actually.
Because it's dumb and in reality such a person would be fucked. Like Index, how everyone keeps doing the same shit and watching the MC tank their attacks and never figuring out they could simple attack literally anywhere else on his body, punch him, cut him, shoot him, anything.

I laughed my ass off at that stupid fucker just thinking that it fizzled out.
>>135632308
Agreed
I think Kishi realized this himself later on, but by then he was just in too deep to undo itMuch like how he didn't expect Hinata to be so much more popular than Sakura but it was too late to switch over the main female role
It should have just been Sasuke's teleportation move he got at the very end from Ninja Buddha, since it's basically the same damn thing with some tweaks
>>135631145

They were only relevant in the chunnin exams arc and 4 of them in the Sasuke retrieval arc.
Those who thought they would all remain as the main characters throughout all of part 2 just because they had cool group shots in the OPs have no one to blame but themselves.

>high output moves
Rasengan is hardly a high output move for Nardo. His chakra is basically unlimited. Hell, he used to giant ones to put a dent into the summons so he sure as hell can use two tiny Rasengans as smoke bombs.
>>135633658
still better than new star wars film

Hey, come on
Don't be that guy

Bolt is a genius, to put it simple. Unlike his father who only had hard work. Burito is closer to Sasuke who picks shit up really, really quickly.
Here's to hoping we get pic related as costumes for the new game.

>I'm considering shit like politics and military defense and other shit like infrastructure. Just making people feel good isnt going to handle all of that
That isn't what the Hokage actually does. A top leader pretty much chooses the direction for the group, leaves the details to the experts under them, and rallies the group to do what the experts decide.
Naruto probably said, "Let's rebuild the village to be more modern and less secretive."
He didn't draw the sewer maps. He didn't organize the construction crews. He makes big decisions every now and then, spending the rest of his time keeping up relations with other villages, making public appearances, and rubber stamping everything his experts want to do.
Why am I poorly explaining organizational politics on /a/?

new star wars was like a scene-for-scene remake of the original but with more modern effects and cinematic production style.
I can see how anybody under maybe the age of 20 would love it, but it felt too disappointingly unoriginal to an oldfag like me.

>>135629513
Nah. The problem wasn't the Uchiha. All fantasy univers can benefit by having that one powerful well-know feared family, even if it's dead from the start. The sharingan was a nice idea.
The problem come from kishi and SJ editors obsession with them and the fact they are low-tier writers for 10 years old japanese boys.

hard to make it about him when he died, stupid memester
>>135629942
Expect Hokage are either arbitrary choosen by their predecessors, or by a small council of the each Nation's lord. [Spoiler] It's useless to discuss this because kishi was never consistent about it to begin with. [/spoiler]
>>135632167
Toneri was still alive in the last. In fact, Pretty sure Naruto never actually killed anyone with his own hands.
>>135638227
>Even as an adult, he gets his kid to kill the bad guy for him

Boruto canonically has a higher kill count than Naruto.

Actually no, Danzo blew himself up as well. Sasuke didnt kill anyone either kek.

>>135638587

neither of them died

we dont know who killed him so lets just assume that it was Suigetsu
>>135638839
No, they were already dead.
>>135638227
Kakashi finished him off but Naruto like double killed Kakuzu
>>135638897
>Sasuke apologists
The Konoha kids barely got any kills during the series. Neji killed the spider guy, Chouji killed the other fat fuck and Shikamaru technically killed Hidan, but I can't think of any others
>>135638897
>No, they were already dead.
What? No. They were still producing chakra. Yeah sure they were guaranteed to die when the technique ended, but Naruto was the one to end the technique.
>>135639370
I thought that it was basically the same as the Edo Tensei, just let complex. Take a corpse, disguise it if necessary and use it as a puppet.
I honestly want Kishimoto to take over JoJo and stop Araki and his gay shit.
>>135639411
I can't believe i've sunk so low but http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Shapeshifting_Technique
They were alive
>>135639586
Fucking murderer. Sasuke was the good guy after all.
>>135626192
Except the very first arch was resolved by Naruto using the Deus Ex Machina that was sealed inside him from birth. That's also how Garra fight was resolved.
The show never really explored the theme of hard rock over coming genetics except for perhaps in the first 2 episodes.
>>135632644
tfw no full rtn spin offunless someone's willing to share somefanfics
>>135641048
>the theme of hard rock over coming genetics
>>135628827
The pain arc was the best part of the show. I wouldn't have minded if it had ended right there. All the sasuke parts were overrated dogshit
>>135634145
true it was better in the beginning, but all relatively died off after chuunin exams.
but also; reminder that a transformation jutsu to appear like a windmill shuriken doesnt make it a windmill shuriken. technically if Zabuza decided to tank the hit, he'd of been ok.
>>135639525
I want Kishimoto to serialize that mafia manga he was writing.
Oh fucking hell, now I wanna re-read series due to this thread.
>>135639325
Kakashi pretty much had cleanup duty. Despite other ninja forgetting about tactics, stealth, or mission objectives, Kakashi kept it pretty professional all the time.
It sucks that a "he's so great, he can do anything and everyone thinks he's super cool"-character is actually one of the more likeable characters in Naruto.
>>135644368
Well Kakashi still struggled with things every once in a while, and there were far worse characters that fit what you described, most notably Itachi, so he didn't look nearly as bad in comparison
>>135644467
even worst than itachi is prolly sasuke, really. he the young genius prodigy version of that.
Naruto is garbage with a bullshit convoluted plot aimed at desperately keeping edgy teenagers interested with self insert concepts of dark ninja magic.
Shit belongs on Gaia.
