Could/should Naruto have stopped here?
Yes it should of ended here. The initial premise, was that every one hated Naruto, and that he was gonna work hard to be accepted by every one. The moment the village embraced Naruto, is when the series lost all meaning.

Definitely. Everything noticeably went to shit after this arc.
>Could
No, Sasuke was still fucking around at that point
>Should
Yes.
>>140700502
Basically. Also shouldve brought Sasuke back after he killed Itachi

For sure the primary theme was payed off at that point as said by >>140700605

Naruto should have stopped after the Chunin Exams.
Or assuming it would have continued, it should have been named Rock Lee
It should. You know what shouldn't stop though? These dubs.

>point where the village finally respects him, and loves the little punk
Well sure it was happening earlier, but this cemented his chances to actually getting to Hokage status.
The problem with the series is that time they took, other wise it is a mediocre show on par of what you see on capeshit.

No, it should've ended after Obito was defeated. The Pain Arc is when the series should've had a time skip and take some time to establish a threat much worse than Pain.

Even though the village finally respects Naruto, he still had to earn to respect of the other villages, especially based Kumo ninjas who can wreck every single village's shit.

Once everything Naruto related is finished, little newfag. Maybe then you'll get your way.
Maybe.
