How do you fix Naruto and save anime?
>>
Make him suicide.
>>
Push all the shounenshit aside and make it straight pornography, the only part of Naruto I care about in the slightest is to fuck some of the girls.
>>
>>142471346
Kill Naruto rename the show Sasuke.
>>
Convince him to erase Sasuke.
>>
make the nine tails way less powerful, make rock lee get sakura in the end, make the pain arc the last arc with naruto and sasuke killing each other as old men in the epilogue
>>
Remove madara and Kaguya, make the coolest guy the final boss.
EMS and KLM are Naruto's and Sasuke's limit and no or less Edo tenseis.
>>
>>142471346
Leave Part I as it is. In Part II, don't introduce Madara or the Sage of the 6 Paths.

Keep the hard work theme, but it's fine for Naruto to learn to control the 9 tails power.

Don't "redeem" the 9 tails, let it remain a demonic entity, although a measure of respect towards Naruto is fine.

Don't write out Orochimaru. Allow Naruto and Sasuke to have more screentime early on in Part II, while at the same time showing Oro and Sasuke ganging up on Itachi in order to fulfill Sasuke's wish to kill Itachi. Then, while Naruto is there, Oro takes over Sasuke against his will. Now Naruto has to try and defeat a much stronger Orochimaru while also fending off the Akatsuki.

Leave Pain/Nagato in. Introduce the Rinnegan, but do not introduce the Sage. Keep Sage mode in however.

No Obito/Tobi either. Have a threeway competition between Akatsuki/Ninja villages/Sound/Oro.

Final battle = Naruto vs Oro.<- I believe that would've been an appropriate climax.
>>
More comedy, less edge.
>>
>>142471867
Also make Sasuke more regretful and hessitant about his actions, give him some human emotion and actually make him care for Taka so no stabbing through Karin.
>>
Make him kill himself.
>>
>>142471346
Make sasuke stick to an idea for more than 10 minutes.
Pain does not bring back the dead from konoha.
Don't make everything about Uchiha.
Don't shit on hard work an training in favour of superior alien genes.
No kaguya, alien bullshit.
Make the bijuus demons that are born from nature.
Sage of 6 paths is just a myth and not a real person.

Go back in time and shoot Oppenheimer in the head, the bomb isn't created, japan doesn't get two dropped on them. They don't become fucked up, anime isn't invented.

I would say end it at the Sasuke Retrieval arc, with a conclusion of Naruto killing Sasuke then a flashforward final arc where he takes down Orochimaru, but there would still be several terrible arcs left over such as Zabuza, two thirds of the Chunin exam, and the Tsunade arc.

Ultimately Naruto is too much of a shitshow for a simple fix to be pointed out, massive rewrites would be needed.

Make Shikamaru and Lee the main characters

One is lazy as shit with weak techniques and is forced to use pure strategy to overcome his opponents... You know, like what the show was supposed to be about in the first place.

The other has to muscle through on hard work, and his own physical attributes alone despite everyone shooting lightning and fireballs out their ass.

These are the main Characters Naruto should've had

End the series after his battle with Sasuke at the Valley of the End. Sasuke won but both died because of their wounds.
The message of the series now is that good intentions fixes shit unless you have the means to accomplish shit, and, again, being a natural born genius means nothing.

Same message as before but with a more powerful impact. Wizard battles and DBZ-tier power levels avoided.

Really what it needed was better fight design, way less runtime, and more focus on the ninja thing. Sure chakra stuff is nice and busting out the big nuke jutsus can be cool at times, but it got ridiculous in the second half. Focus on actual ninja stuff like recon and assassinations would have been nice. Eyehax were okay to a point to reinforce the theme of the series by having people who work hard surpass the ones who were born strong (this means Lee should have won), if their importance had later been greatly reduced. Having people actually develop a character would have also helped. The only one who I felt changed a lot over the series was Gaara, and the MC himself was incredibly boring and had godmode stuff later on despite supposedly being the underdog. You can't just not have development in a series this long.
>>
>>142471346
Make Sakura more insane than she already is, buff her abilities to be on Naruto's level, have her also betray the village and take on Karin's role in the story.

Don't allow Sasuke to join Akatsuki. Joining Tobi's side after he told him that he helped kill off the clan that day is fucking baffling. On the other hand, Uchihas are genetically fucked up. If only we knew that Uchihas were genetically edgy sooner.

Nerf Madara. Buff Tsunade. If it's still ok for Senjus to be OP, then it shouldn't be ok for Tsunade to be so weak and underutilized compared to Orochimaru and Jiraiya.

Ever realize how most series that have a single plot stretch for 40+ episodes are complete garbage? At that point it's either shitty writing or deliberate stretching to cash in. Some series avert this (ex. Berserk stays interesting by telling a bigass story, although the whole boat thing could have been left out obviously, and JoJo by splitting it's plots neatly into digestible pieces and just building a big metaplot on top), but by and large, long runners simply suck ass. Good examples are this very series, Dragonball, Pokemon, One Piece, etceteraetcetera. At some point the series is usually too long to keep up any tangible tension.
Meanwhile most series we can all agree are good/decent are somewhere between 20 and 35 episodes in length.

Before the time skip Naruto explicitly never learns to make a proper Rasengan, he cheats by using clones to speed up the process and make a very slip shod way of doing it properly that abuses his natural gifts rather than actual hard work. The only time he does a rasengan with 1 hand its through the overwhelming amount of chakra from the fox creating hands to do it for him.

Hinata's confession used "daisuki," which can mean "love" or "really like," depending on context. Earlier, for example, Kakashi says "daisuki" to Naruto when Naruto figures out the trick to creating the Rasenshuriken, which Naruto misconstrues as Kakashi hitting on him, causing Kakashi to clarify that he just means he really likes him. More powerful than "daisuki" is "aisuru," which is basically like saying "I am in love with you," but generally isn't the sort of thing you say during a confession of feelings because it comes off too strong.

>>142485231
In a flashforward, Kawaki, the newest edgelord on the block, implies in front of a destroyed Konoha that Naruto is dead. Boruto has a scar over his right eye like Kakashi's and reveals a Byakugan. Since the series probably won't make use of the Hyuuga clan ever again, Boruto probably got it from one of the only other two Byakugan users: his sister and his mother. Eye donations usually occur in Naruto when a character assumes they're about to die. You do the math.

>Sasuke gets a girl who will be nice to him but doesn't want his dick for once
>Hinata becomes Tsunade's apprentice, which makes more sense since she has a gentle disposition, makes her own ointment, and has a built in X-Ray
>Sakura, a genjutsu type, gets to study under Kurenai, supposedly the genjutsu master
>The final battle against Kaguya has both sides fighting with Byakugan, Sharingan, Rinnegan, Sage Power, and Tailed Beast Chakra

To say nothing of potential development with the Hyuuga clan as an extension of Hinata being the girl on Team 7.

I guess there are no dedicated genjutsu squads so she got trackers instead.

I imagine trackers are pretty common in shinobi work. Since genin teams eventually split up and the members get mixed and matched onto different squads, training up tracking squads means more advanced missions will always have a tracker available.

Add in a few more arcs before the Chuunin exam.

Introduce the other Leaf Village genin during this. That way there is more character development and plot giblets to better flesh out the world.

The biggest problem I saw was that too much happened too fast and the resulting plot collapsed upon itself. Building up pre-chuunin and fleshing out plot concepts would've helped prevent the Uchiha circle jerk from happening.

>>142486265
>Add in a few more arcs before the Chuunin exam
Sometimes I question whether or not this is a good idea. The Land of Waves arc was supposed to be a C rank mission turned A rank because the Jew bridge builder wanted to save shekels and omitted the fact he's being hunted by fucking Zabuza

Obviously genin can't keep going on A rank missions or else it'd ruin the tension of the series, but C & D ranked are boring as hell and only Chuunin/Jonin can do B ranked.

So after you see the best available, why would you want arcs containing shittier missions that are less exciting? Going from the Land of Waves to the Chuunin Exams was a good way to change the pace of things while still making it interesting since you introduce a bunch of other ninja their age.

you have some good points, but it would screw up the Naruto/Hinata romance or Hinata's character would have to be retooled

Naruto being a doofus/unaware of Hinata's feelings only makes sense because they interact infrequently. It wouldn't make sense if they were on missions constantly spent 6000 hours with eachother

Have a few short 1-3 week comfy/comedy Ninja SOL arcs between longer arcs. Put the focus more on worldbuilding and how different countries do different things.

Waves was a good hook to say "HEY KIDS, LOOK AT HOW SHITTY THE WORLD CAN BE". Just because it's a shonen doesn't mean it needs to be BIGGER AND BETTER every single arc.

Well in this version, the romance would have to play out differently and Naruto and Hinata would basically have to be together by or get together immediately after the Pain Arc.

I can see it this way
>Naruto thinks Hinata is weird at the start
>Over the course of part I she shows him she's not
>She tries to get the courage to confess her feelings but Naruto tells her he's leaving for three years so she decides to wait
>When they get back she's worried things are weird
>Things get back to normal pretty soon
>Naruto starts to notice she's actually attractive
>Naruto thinks, maybe fed by Kurama's malice, that no girl would actually love him, especially someone nice like Hinata
>Hinata again wants to confess but Jiraiya dies and she decides she'd feel shitty doing so when Naruto is suffering from the death of his mentor
>Pain Arc happens, Hinata gets put into a coma like Tsunade
>Naruto goes off to learn to control Kurama's chakra
>Learns about his parents' love story from Minato/Kushina
>She wakes up somehow when he comes back and tells her he loves her too
>They're together for the rest of the manga

Naruto kills Haku and learns that NTNJ doesn't really work very well, especially when you're a stupid kid with no speech skills.
Naruto doesn't save Gaara, he gets killed by Kakashi, or Asuma after Naruto made an opening
Half of the team in Sasuke Recovery Mission dies.
Naruto actually learns something in the time skip like, for example, the fucking frog katta to foreshadow senin mod.
Naruto never stops being hated by villagers, and only small circle of his friends support him
All bijuus are just demons, everyone of them is just an embodiment of a certain feeling.
The 4th Hokage doesn't appear and stop Naruto from opening the seal, and Kuubi takes control. He fights Pain, Pain can't defeat the nine tail, so Pain just escapes.
All the people who died from Pain attack stay dead. Hinata dies as well.
People learn that Naruto was the reason that happened and they kick him out of the village or something of the similar degree.
Shikamaru, Choji, Shino, Kiba, Ino and Sakura leave the village to find Naruto.
No kage summit, Danzo is Hokage, Tsunade dies. Danzo secretly looks for Naruto as well.
Naruto somehow manages to transform back, perhaps Kuubi got wounded pretty hard by Pain, so he can't maintain his form any longer.
Killer Bee comes across Naruto, but Naruto loses his memories.
Time skip.
cont.
>>
>>142487114
Naruto is a ninja of hidden cloud, he works in pair with Killer Bee. Killer Bee is the only one who knows that Naruto is Jinchuuriki, he teaches him to control Kuubi (basically almost the same shit that happened in manga). Naruto doesn't meet his parrents, and doesn't know anything about them.
Then Naruto goes on a mission of sorts, he meets his old comrades. Ino uses her skills to help him to remember everything, he remembers that Hinata is kill, Kakashi is kill etc. He feels like shit. He doesn't have an answer to hatred etc.
They can't go back to village so they go to some secret uzumaki place. Where Naruto learns some uzumaki magic.
Meanwhile Sasuke, Tobi(who is actually Madara) and Pain prepare for a full out assault on the hidden villages.
Susake actually has a legit reason to attack villages.
Kabuto has his own plan to get Sasuke's body.
Then there's a big fight. Huge amount of people dies Naruto and his friends show up and participate in the war. Kiba or some other irrelevant shit head dies.
People of villages start to like Naruto because he came to help or something like that. Naruto understands that all Hokage bullshit is irrelevant, and only legit respect and love what matters.
While it's happening Sasuke backstabs Madara to get his eyes or something, gets a huge power up, he actually was in alliance with Kabuto all along.
While this happening Pain kills off Danzo. Naruto and the crew kills Pain.
And then Naruto fights Sasuke, while Kabuto fights against leftovers of Ninja army. Naruto can't defeat Sasuke so he uses the strongest uzumaki magic which literally sucks out all chakra in the world, so no more ninja magic for you. The payment for the usage of this skill is live. So Naruto dies. Kabuto runs away. Sasuke gets life sentence and Sakura is the new hokage. The end.

The only plotlines in Naruto I didn't like is the Biju-Damas, but I will excuse those because Kishimoto needed a way to kill off characters from far away in an efficient amount of time in order to get the story all in under 700 chapters while also juggling its high quality output at a rate of 1 chapter a week without fail. So I can accept Biju-Damas (tailed-beast bombs).

What I can't accept though is Killer Bee surviving against Sasuke. Sasuke should have known that it was a clone made of his tentacle. If you could see chakra and suddenly were taking back a small portion of the guy who just turned you into a shiskabob, then you'd be suspicious too.

I also, really hate the whole "Juugo can give up his own flesh and reverts to his childhood" thing.

Sigh, I guess you can explain them both off since even a piece of the tailed beasts contains their full power, and Juugo is from Kaguya's branch clan or something, and so he might be immortal. Hence Orochimaru's interest.

But it still makes me outraged. Furious, SICK WITH ANGER.

YES, I AM MAD!

I think the selected teams were formed as a way to keep the other clans from killing each other.

Inuzuka and Aburame clan both deal with animalistic manipulation, so they need someone skilled in taijutsu who can see through their techniques if one gets out of hand.

Nara and Yamanaka both specialize in paralysis with drawbacks, so they need someone too big too hurt or control easily.

Uzumaki specialize in seals and intuitive sensory, and Uchiha specialize in genjutsu that relies on their eyes, so they need a genjutsu specialist who can also sense in the event one falls in battle.
>>
>>142487668
>everyone hates Naruto
They either have never had any reason to hate him, or to stop hating him. He never stopped being Kuubi.

>thrown out of the village
If we're to assume he was hated and also was the reason village was destroyed and the whole lot of people died. I would consider it to be quite plausible to do this, or something of similar degree.

>doesn't have an answer to hatred
Can't do anything about this one, he didn't have an answer in the actual manga either. Only BELIEVE IT.
If Kishi tried to show that Naruto indeed admits that he has no answer, and that he indeed tries to find it, It would only add depth to his character.

>kill off half the cast for extra edgelord appeal
Literally 2 people, unless you count the ones who got resurrected, which was freaking stupid in my opinion. Hinata's death makes sense because it was clearly implied that Pain pierced her with his black stick, and he didn't have any reason not to either. And if it didn't happen, Naruto would have no reason to lose his shit.
Death of Kiba or some other irrelevent character was just to show that the war is, you know, an actual war, where people die, doesn't matter if they're nobodies, or part of the main cast

>>
>>142476535
This, if I would change anything, have it so that Madara or some other villain steals the nine tails from him instead of that bullshit of stealing part of it being enough to form the ten tails. Have Naruto fight with a combination of sage mode, clones, rasengan, toads and new jutsus at the end.

>>
Simple:

-No time skip at all, or do it far later.

-Gut the tragic Uchiha backstory (including 90% of the first/second hokage shit), just make the Uchiha clan traitors, Itachi finds out their plan for a coup, kills everyone, but can't bear to kill Sasuke and leaves him. The Leaf actually for real did not know of the coup and is shocked- convinced that Itachi just lost his mind or something.

-Sasuke refuses to join Orochimaru, and is forcibly kidnapped instead of willingly going. He is rescued.

-More missions involving Team 7 working with the other teams. Build their characters, build the world, less fucking massive info dumps.

-Have Sasuke de-edge over time.

-Absolutely remove all moon-ninja, Sage of the 6 paths, beast shit. Just have them be nature spirits that maybe embody specific emotions or elements of the human experience. Or the Earthly Desires of Buddhism or something. Jesus.

-Less powerlevel blow-everything up Jutsu, more shit like the beginning half of the manga.
>>
>>142489278
To be fair, Chiyo and Sakura were very good counters for Sasori. Chiyo taught him everything that he knew and Sakura could one-shot his puppets and had a cure for his incurable poisons.

Not to mention that in the end Sasori allowed himself to lose because he wanted to be hugged by his parents' puppets.

As for Shikamaru he got lucky that they showed off all of their techniques, fucked off instead of killing him (giving him prep time to figure out have to beat them) and Hidan himself said that he was the weakest Akatsuki member.

Asuma wouldn't have gotten killed if he knew that Hidan has to be fought from a distance and has to be separated from Kakuzu.

I have more of a problem with Kakuzu suddenly turning into a retard and getting tricked by a genin-tier clone switcheroo.

>Get rid of the whole reincarnation crap with Naruto/Sasuke, with them basically being Kaguya's god-tier children.

Make it be about ninjas going out on secret missions. Keep powerlevels to a minimum and have the characters rely on trickery and stealth.

Introduce actual warriors, like knights, spearmen and archers that vastly outclass ninjas at combat.

Sakura falls in love with Sasuke. Unable to confess, he is gifted with by a deus ex machina with the edgelord's phone number. Never minding the strange area code, she immediately calls him, and is overjoyed to find out that he has a crush on her as well. But, the next day, when he recounts the previous day's confessions to the boy, he only unsheathes his katana (folded x 100000000).

After some investigation, she finds out that the boya she called is not the same edgelord he fell in love with. In fact, he doesn't exist in this universe at all. he is the boy's alternate universe counterpart, who has fallen in love with the MC's own AU self, who too is blissfully unaware of his crush.

Hijinks ensue as the two strike up a deal to give each other their DARKNESS, most private secrets in order to equip the other with the weapons (like katanas) they need to conquer the heart of their other selves. While the two chase their respective loved ones, DRAMA ensues as they begin to fall in love with each other instead and question the NARUTO of DARKNESS.

The biggest problem of the series is Naruto himself and everything about him. The elements that comprise his role and backstory are pathetically contradictory.

He's the annoying nobody everyone hates but everyone really hates him because of the demon but everyone actually loved the previous host and NOBODY mentions his parents who were like the best people ever in everyone's opinions. The explanations for it are terrible: Naruto has no reason why he should be so completely out of the loop as he is. Tailed hosts are apparently really important in the political world of naruto as ninja nukes but NOBODY FUCKING TELLS HIM growing up. So if they never did try to groom him proper than we can only assume jinchurikis actually aren't important at all. The only reason is because kishi started the story wanting an outcast character but bungled the writing later to the point where it made absolutely NO SENSE.

In particular the series majorly cops out by tip toeing around the question of Naruto's upbrinding. We know he's never had a real friend (except later when we see his classmates really were his friends... go figure) and he lives alone in some apartment. Who raised Naruto? Who changed his diapers? Who taught him out to shit in a toilet? Who pays for his house?

Basically Naruto needs to be one of the following.

A) A legit nobody everyone dislikes who stumbles into a sealing ritual for the fox and becomes its host. The series becomes about everyone having to put up with this shitskid and gradually changing their opinion on him. Naruto from the other side learns to better work with others and not be a shithead.

B) Naruto actually had a great upbrinding. Sure his parents are dead and he's kinda annoyed at not knowing why but he's well taken care of and he knows who his parents are and everyone acts really nice to him.

Then he discovers the fox inside him and realises he's being groomed into a human weapon and realises his whole life was a lie.

Could easily be mixed with the initial story of the stolen scroll, instead of being the "forbidden" kage bunshin it could be the incident that gives this nobody the demon fox.

Keep Sakura as a medical ninja but actually devote time to her. Show her learning about anatomy and using it properly. Have us actually believe and get invested in the story of a combat medic.

Instead of it just being a side detail to 'I LOVE BOYS' and 'I PUNCH HARD'

She could be the female equivalent of Kabuto.

A crazy necromancer that asspulled himself into becoming the strongest non-ninja God in the series and got away with everything?

Naruto's story is ultimately supposed to be about how this violent ninja world is a bad place and everyone tries to change it. The bad guys just do it in shitty ways.

The problem is that we're never really convinced of this as an audience. The ninja world seems cool and besides the worst of the villains all the characters who get focus seem pretty cool.

Kishi snidely avoids addressing this by having most of the moments where we're supposed to see the 'true cruelty' of the ninja world being perpetrated by background nobodies with a few exceptions (again, only the worst of the villains).

How about make the ninja world a real fucking scary place and actually convince us these characters want to really change it instead of just taking it onto the tail end of the series.

Sage of Six Paths actually made more sense as the villain than his asspulled mom since he had been name dropped and built up for quite a while in the series as the most powerful ninja that ever existed, also Madara and Obito did all of what they did to grasp the sage's full powers, not his mom's.

And Nardo and Sauce teaming up to seal their spiritual dad and then fighting over interprating his would be more thematicaly appropiate.

This. Also the whole Hagoromo and Hamura thing was unnecessary when his kids were the ones who had the most involvement with the events of the series. It'd make a million times more sense if they sealed their father and Hagoromo was the Juubi as opposed to Kaguya.

Kaguya is a completely pointless character and the War Arc would be at least 10x better if Hago was the real big bad after Madara.
>>
>>142494509
Enough with this meme. Lee's too annoying to be the protagonist, you'd eventually get sick of his shtick. Besides, by the end of the series all taijutsu except Gai's 8 Gates was redundant.
>>
>>142494539
Supposedly that's what was supposed to happen but Harry Potter was already becoming a thing so Kishi made it about ninja instead because in Japanese folklore that's the closest they've got to non-religious wizards. Except they also have martial arts.

part I was full of this what are you talking about.

There are mobsters who hire ninjas to do their dirty work.

Underage ninjas in training fight to the death to become chuunins

Oro is a rogue ninja who is a dick, thinks he can become a god and break the ninja system.

Even pre-Madara Akatsuki makes sense in this world, as they were mercenaries fighting for world peace. (no moon tsukuyomi bullshit).

The problem was making Akatsuki/Madara the final villains, since it takes all the tension and antagonisms that setting has and projects them into an outside threat. Also Oro being neutralized as an antagonist in a completely anti-climactic way.

Are you aware this is a shonen anime?

Were the fuck is all this edgy shit coming from? Naruto was a manga mainly for kids and teenagers, this isn't Berserk.
