Why didn't you faggots tell me this was good? On episode 12 now.
starts off pretty good
gets progressively worse
Because its garbage.
>>>/trash/
Because its a hidden gem not many people know about.
>>>/a/
Drop it after you get done with the Zabuza arc.
What happened to you, /a/? Remember how you used to love watching Naruto? Remember how you used to practice the hand seals in front of the mirror? Remember when you used to run with the same pose as the characters?
Part 1 Naruto is great throughout.
Shippuuden is okay.
>>133737390
read the manga please
you will be poisoned with filler
>>133737505
>Zabuza arc
>not Chunin exams
>>133737576
Nigga I'm 30. I did that shit with DBZ but I was too old to identify with Naruto that way. Even then, Naruto was never really that good and I don't get how 90s kids identified with it so much
>>133737688
Because Power Rangers.
Dropped the original series around episode 100 or something, it wasn't that bad, but I got bored.
Maybe one day I will resume it and then start with shippuden.
>>133737576
/a/ is garbage. I called out Bleach and Naruto on their horrible story and pacing years ago but I was told to fuck off.
Now look at how bad they have become. I was right all along.
Naruto's author's brother made a manga far more interesting and enjoyable than Naruto.
>>133737576
You realize there are people over 25 on 4chan, right?
>>133737505
You mean the Shinobi World War arc

Decent for while, then turns to shit.
Fucking criminal that Tenten never did anything.
>>133737860
Damn right.
>>133737576
Remember when /a/ didn't have naruto threads and there was much less shitposting
>>133737390
It was good for a while then just jumped off the deep end. It's wasted potential: the series.

Most filler is shit, and the manga looks better. Youtube the fights for good action and Voice work.
fuck off narutards

Enjoy it while you can.
I stopped watching Shippuden during the Sora filler and started watching it again this summer. I am blown away by how everything turned out.
fuck off

check them.
>>133740304
check mine narutard
Just watch till Sasuke leaves the village. Then forget it existed.
We didn't tell you because we wanted to keep the fun to ourselves.

Read the manga or prepare for 500 episodes of filler.

>>133737390
Growing up, all the kids around me were into Naruto. Being the insufferable faggot I was, I refused to try and get into it because it was popular. I was really surprised to hear when it ended, I was under the impression it was going to be One Piece tier in length, since I didn't know better. I finally gave in, and decided to read it to see what it was all about.
I really enjoyed the heck out the first part. Some really memorable arc were Chunin Exams and Sasuke Retrieval, which were engaging the whole way through, but all the arcs were actually pretty good. I was pretty surprised with how entertained I was.
Shippuden started of pretty strong too, I remember specifically really liking the first chapter, and the Jiraya's fight against the Pains. To me, it's around when Naruto started training with Jiraya's shoulder frog things that I felt the series started declining in quality. The story just got less interesting, and -here's by biggest gripe- a lot of interesting characters were thrown away, and forgotten. Personally, I wanted to know more about the rest of the ninjas in Konoha like Rock Lee, Neji, Shino, Gaara etc. to be more involved in the story. Kind of like how Kishimoto handled Shikamaru's level of involvement. I thought one of Naruto's strengths was its strong cast, so that kinda ruined it for me. I mean, There are some good moments in Shippuden, like the Sasuke's final fight with Itachi, the arcs where they introduced Izanagi and Izanami, and especially the backstory of the First Hokage and Madara- all of those were great. But overall, Shippuden just got worse and worse, then ended in one giant shitfest with the Shinobi War and ultimately, Kaguya. It really felt like Kishimoto was rushing things.
So overall, very strong start with Naruto but it slowly fell off with Shippuden, though Shippuden did have its moments. At the very least, now I understand the hype behind Naruto. , and I admit it does deserve a lot of the praise it got.
>>133737390
First couple were decent when it was actually about "ninjutsu." But around the chunin exam part it just became a ridiculous clusterfuck of superpowers.
Protip: Read the manga.
>>133742843
There's no denying it, by the Pain arc Kishi was just growing tired of the whole thing. People call him a shit writer, but I think the reason Naruto stopped trying to develop characters outside of Team 7, Akatsuki and a few other heroes and villians was because Kishi stopped giving a fuck.
How else can you explain characters he had once invested so much time and effort in like Rock Lee and Neji getting sidelined? He just stopped giving a fuck about them. It could have ended on a much worse note though, at least the characters he chose to commit to were more or less well written
>inb4 >implying Sakura and Sasuke were well written
>>133737390
If you can for back story watch it, if you don't watch shippuden
the naruto vs sasuke fight at the valley of the end(or more specifically episode 133) was the thing that got me into anime. even now it is one of my favorite anime episode ever.
i never hear people talk about it, so what did you guys think of that fight?
>>133744542
One of the best fights in anime but still second to Naruto vs Pain.
>>133737390
Naruto is actually pretty fucking good. Shippuden in the other hand... I would recommend to stay away from it.
Drop it after Zabuza arc
It's all downhill from there
>>133737390
Watch through episode 80, then stop. 100% serious.
>>133744624
really? i always see people complain about the animation from that fight.
>>133744986
Naruto had some pretty bad animation parts as well but the fight isn't as long and is more fun to watch hence why people don't bring it up.
>>133737814
too bad his series' never took off. I really enjoyed 666satan, but it was so rushed after the time skip. Blazer drive wash shit though. No excuse for that one.
>>133745034
Kakashi vs Obito is pretty good and so is Jiraiya vs Pain and Sasuke vs Itachi
>>133737825kek
>>133745151
Kakashi vs Obito was too short.
Jiraya vs Pain was solid.
Sasuke vs Itachi had me rolling my eyes at the end.
>>133737688
>Chunin exams
Muh courage more important than any knowledge or skill, muh flashback for a flashback of a flashback, muh hard work vs talent.
Chuunin exam is where you first see that Kishimoto has no fucking clue how to write a story, you just go through it out of inertion.
>>133739354
You mean play the vidya.
When all the product has going for it is spectacle, best to go all in.
>>133737576
Remember thedubs?
>>133745109
I'd take 666satan ending over the shit we got with Naruto any day.
>>133742959
>a ridiculous clusterfuck of superpowers.
Exactly what did you think ninjutsu was?
>>133745374
I'd say Naruto's strongest point is characters. If only Kishimoto could focus on their interaction and growth instead of powerlevels and bullshit twists it could actually be a good manga.
>>133745109
wasn't blazer drive a manga based of a game?
>>133745374
I tried some of the games, and outside of story fights, the anime looks better. And the anime is really shitty. Most of them feel cheap.
>>133745477
No but it got a shovelware DS game, just like a lot of manga.
>>133737390
Still my favorite villains from the entire series.
>>133737390
fuck off chink, the series belongs to the >>>/trash/
>>133745930
>>133737838
why would I read the manga when the best part are the fights?
>>133745961
Next hokage, confirmed in the movie.
Kishi Kishi Kishi. Cut the fucking crap and appease the fucking otaku fags by saying that Haku is a girl instead of a guy.
>>133745433
not him, but it always bothered me that naruto is about superheroes fighting supervillains who all just call themselves ninjas for some reason
I mean of course they're going to have special abilities and whatnot but I would have enjoyed it more if the fights were a kind of spy vs spy type thing where its all about layers upon layers of misdirection. The fights that focused on that over random super power asspulls were always more fun to me.
>>133746109
why would anyone want that?
Some guy on reddit edited naruto to remove filler and to have each section match the manga volumes, pic related, edits each episode so they correspond exactly to the manga volumes.
He's also doing it for Shippuuden too.
>>133737576
I remember enjoying it.
Than it became a cancer.
I'm talking about high schoolers in public with Chunin vests type of cancer.
Than Cartoon network canceled the show and all of that started to disappear and was therefore confined to only conventions then.
Basically Naruto then is KnK now, except luckily I hopped off of both trains during the rush hour.
Why do people bitch about Power Levels when the beginning of the manga has a Giant Fox create Tsunamis and Earthquakes with a single flick of its tail?
>>133744209
That fight was way better in the anime than in the manga. One of the few things the anime did better.
>>133737626
You can skip the filler now that it's over. And yes OP, do skip the filler, and do yourself a favor and don't watch Shippuden.
>>133745456
Naruto had potential, and with the short battles and innovative abilities at the beginning, it had potential. I don't think that they realize the reason why people enjoy HxH, FMA, etc. more is because the fights are quick and rely on thinking as well as power. Then again, it outsells all of those pretty much except for maybe One Piece, so I guess they do still attract an audience even when they're critical failures, and that's all that really matters to a company.
Alternate history time
>Naruto continues as an adventure series visiting all of the different regions of the Ninja world.
>Akatsuki is more like a mafia than an apocalyptic terrorist group
>Naruto takes down the leader and becomes Hokage
>Story would stay goofy (ala Dragon Ball) instead of going total grimdark
>>133747693
Sounds fun enough. Don't know about the hokage thing, but it'd be better than what we have now.
why did they feel the need to give him a catchphrase in the dub?
>>133748575
Because his catchsuffix is untranslatable.
>>133748459
I'm just saying that because it was his goal from the start, but I agree, would be better than what we have now.
>>133747693
If kishi was to continue with boruto it should be part SOL and part adventure manga with less focus on power levels since naruto and sasuke already exist
This is anime how is it off topic, God forbid you ignore something you don't like
>>133737390
You like Masashi Kishimoto? His early work was a little too new wave for my tastes, but when Naruto came out in '97, I think he really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole series has a clear, crisp plot, and a new sheen of legendary storytelling that really gives the subplot a big boost. He's been compared to Togashi, but I think Kishimoto has a far more intelligent, nihilistic sense of humor.
>>133748915
Well it is unlikely Kishi will, I am sure it will still get more stuff made for it
>>133749085
Nice try dubs man
>>133749085
In '07, Huey released this, Naruto Shippuden, his most accomplished series. I think their undisputed masterpiece is The Pain arc, a storyline so awesome, most people probably don't read the subs. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of peace, and the importance of friend, it's also a personal statement about society itself.
Got hotties in it
>>133744542
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hR1KKt6HDQ
Best fight of the series
>>133749117
I kind of wish a boruto series would try and become its own thing instead of a sequel to naruto. I like the world of naruto and think it has a lot to work with,so maybe having kishi try making a story that's more like pre chunin exam naruto using boruto would be cool. The older characters should just make rare cameos and shouldn't be too heavily involved in the plot
Zabuza arc was probably the best one. Chuuni/Sasuke arc was okay but then everything went to shit starting Shippuden.
>>133749318
I agree, though I definitely would like to see naruto show up and do something neat if boruto gets over his head or something
>>133749081
Is every shoe open toed in this show?
I can't stand sandals.
>>133749477
Some folks wear closed toed shoes I think, but like unless they are like in snow or something, expect sandals
>>133749477
Kishi has a foot fetish obviously.
>>133737688
>Even then, Naruto was never really that good and I don't get how 90s kids identified with it so much
DBZ was never really that good either.
>>133746383
>KnK
Kara no Kyoukai?
>>133749318
Seems like he wants to take a break from it.
>>133746289
Then how long is a single episode? Two Hours?
Can people stop saying it went to shit with shippuuden? I'll agree the overall quality dropped but when you had the period from Rasenshuriken training ending with the Pain fight in it you can't say it was bad. Those 80~ episodes were flat out fucking amazing.
>>133737390
Drop it right after the sandnigger Invasion
>>133751108
With the mecha manga?
>>133737390
It sure is fun when it's a story about kids drafted in military having to fight against adults and get by on their quick thinking and determination. But once it turns into a wizard war where revived ancient wizard drops meteorites and main character is the chosen one reincarnation of god you see just how bad can one man write.
>>133751265
I think this is the best summary of Naruto I have ever read.
>>133749180
so when Boruto is going to unlocktenseigan?
>>133745374
This. I watched a playthrough of UNS3's story mode, and that told me everything about Naruto's parents, Tobi, Madara, the Ninja War, Killer Bee yo, the other Tailed Beasts, Nine Tails' name, and SSJ Naruto.
>>133752583
same here
fuck the manga and anime
cc2's storytelling is the best
>>133737814
>Naruto on their horrible story and pacing years ago but I was told to fuck off
The fuck are you talking about? Years ago? You weren't even allowed to discuss Naruto on /a/ "years ago"
>>133737576
Shippuden happened
>>133742843
You do realize the Pain arc is hundreds of chapters into Shippuden right?
>>133746041
Because of filler and bad pacing. Unless of course you skip all fillers but it's kinda hard since the Anime adds filler in the same episodes as manga content sometimes.
They repeated Obito's flashback like 10 times, if Kakashi remembs Obito in 1 panel the anime would make it 10 minutes.
Also Kishimoto's arc is great.
The only parts i remember enjoying were when the edgy guy with glasses clogged some guy's arms with bugs while he was talking and when he couldn't stop laughing at a funeral or something. I'm pretty sure the second one was filler though.

Brace yourself for Filler Hell.
>>133739354

No it doesn't
The manga looks like trash and the animu improved upon it
If you're going to bother with this shit stick to the animu and skip the fillers appropriately

>>133737576

>inb4 you're gonna think that you're one of the 0.1% because you just have to be so fucking special
>>133757027
Leave them be dude, that's their way of dealing with being a failure in life and never accomplishing anything
>I'm a total fucking loser, but at least I have a superior taste in chinese cartoons
>>133757027
Umm yeahhhhhh...NO
Dragonball is much more popular than Naruto can ever dream of hoping to be and yet it isn't nearly as hated
Naruto is just shit
>>133737390
It starts good, then it gets bad progressively.
>>133737390
That's because it's good until the Chuunin Exams and went downhill after that. Like how SAO is only good until episode 14.
>>133753777
trips confirm
>>133737390
i'll go as far as to say that the original part 1 of naruto, is good
if it ended just at the part withsauce slamming nurutu into the water and leaving it on a cliffhanger, it would be a classic. unfortunately kishimoto destroyed and hint of artistic integrity with shippuden.
>>133753639
tobirama did nothing wrong
he deserves better than this
>>133757340
I like both of them, but Dragon Ball Z is just shit compared to Naruto imho The reason why everyone loves it is that they grew up with it, no more than that
Aha
Ahahaha
Ahahahahahahahahaha
It's good now, but at some point you might start noticing a drop in quality before you finally hit Shippuden at which point everything goes downhill.
Just find a good point to stop and make up your own ending with Orochimaru as the final villain. It'll be for the best
>>133749081
friendly reminder that LEE was 1 year older than the rest, but he skipped the previous year's test.
This means the year before there was another test.
Every fucking year, actually.
THIS MEANS THERE WAS AT LEAST ONE ENTIRE GENERATION OF CHUNINS WE NEVER HEARD OF, and this only assumes that only people as old as rock lee and naruto EXIST AT ALL.
Where are all these people in konoha
now tell me if this isn't shit writing
This shouldn't be called anime, it should just be called filler.
>>133737390
I loved Naruto but after watching Hunter x Hunter it was ruined for me and all of the respect I had for early Naruto was taken. I just can't defend Naruto the way I used to.

Are you fucking retarded

wrong pic
>>133760392
Your life takes place in the US.
You apply for a profession in the army
You get the job.
You only ever work with the same people who took the test with you (except sai) and the instructors that worked at the time.
All the guys that work with you are from important families and inherited important names.
When a war happens there are a bunch of no names that you never met before but none of them are famous. ALL of the famous guys are from your generation.
All of them end up married with each other.
Wow this makes so much sense, sorry for being retarded how could I not realize all od this is perfectly believable.
>>133744542
>>133744624
Konan vs Obitto was one of my favorite fights
That little bitch had to use some deus ex forbidden eye hack jutsu to win.
>>133760595
>A manga which only focuses on the main character and people around him
Yeah, never been done before
Also, more character in Naruto is exactly what we needed.
Naruto is shit, but you're a such a fucking strawman right now.
>>133760772
No you're the strawman. Focusing on a few people is okay but you want to make me believe that all the important sons of the main clans in konoha and other villages just happen to be all the same age, and they never meet anyone else from an important clan, and once they start actually working they're never paired with new people (except Sai) and they even end up all together as adults just because they happened to be in the same class once.
Dude.
What other manga does this?
A random shonen
In One Piece they keep meeting new pirates. They're not all the same age. The main crew sticks together because they are a crew, they're not part of a bigger organization that puts them together all the time for no actual reason besides "they're popular"
Another random shonen
in GTO all the students are roughly the same age, because they're in a fucking school.
This makes sense.
Except for Kanzaki, no one is special in any regard. It's not a class full of important names.
Once they stop being students they will likely live their own life and not marry each other
This is how life works
In Evengelion Shinji works with the other children. They are all the same age because that is the required age to pilot eva.
They are all of special status because they're chosen, as only a few people in the world can become pilots. They're part of a huge organization but they are the elite (or the victims, whatever) there aren't enough people in the world that can relate to them This makes sense.
Naruto - all the important names are the same age and they only work together even if there are obviously a lot of other same-level ninjas
that could have worked with them.
Sasuke is kidnapped? Only people of his age can chase him.
Wow.
Why don't you send the guys that took the test when Rock lee skipped it? Where are those guys?
Who cares, naruto is well written and I'm only being autistic, right?
Nice denial, fact is this doesn't make sense, deal with it

They also meet various ninja from other villages, and yeah it's so fucking weird for people who grew up together to work together later in life
>in GTO all the students are roughly the same age, because they're in a fucking school.
and ninja academy is what?
Also important clans, sasuke is the only uchiha, neji is a shit tier Hyuuga, Hinata had literally no character development until the end of manga, and has a younger sister who is more superior to her.
About the pairings, if you didn't notice, they are not random, there's a lot of tradition and shit in them, like InoShikaChou. third trained Jiraya, Jiraya trained Minato, Minato trainded Kakashi, Kakashi trained, Naruto.
>>133752989
How far back are we talking?
I'm not that guy, but out of interest how far back has Naruto been taboo.
I never really noticed much hate for it besides the times when posters would shit on it during related threads.
Complete ban on it's discussion must have been quite some time ago.
Man, if they just had ended the manga with madara being the final boss and none of that old god out of nowhere bullshit it would have been atleast satisfying
Seriously, what was he thinking? Madara was built along the entire manga and he replaced it in a stupid page with some dumb explanation
>>133737390
That's the trick. It is after the chunnin exams it goes to hell.
>>133762852
because he was right along with the Neji
and if you speak the truth in nardoverse, kishi will write your ass off>tfw Naruto and Leaf Village are the evil ones from all the time
dubs thread?
>>133763019
That reminds me of one of my first critics about naruto
The central ideal at the start was that you can overcome your "low-born" and talentless status through hard work and dedication
Later we find that naruto is not some punk ass kid, he is the son of the fourth. It kinda diminishs this idea but whatever, lets roll with it
And then, he is now actually a fucking descendant of an god, destined to fight and be heroic
What the hell man, why did the autor pissed on his own storie

>>133763527
>you will never have qt trap that loves you unconditionally
>>133763407
Going purely from that image, as well as the few chapters I've read.
The anime adapted it very well, at least the important scenes.
>>133763729
I don't think so. It's way too long, and the added scenes are bad fights or useless stuff most of the time. They even added shit in the fight themselves (like a whole scene between two hits with an awkward cut) and it just doesn't work. And the drawings as well as the animation are shitty.
Basically it's the opposite of the manga, since the manga excels at fast pacing and showing fast and brutal fights scenes that seem kinda real.
>>133763729
The anime adapted pretty much everything in the manga, then ran with it and made all those short cool one-page scenes last seemingly forever while adding new shit to make it last longer (and then proceeded to add straight-up filler episodes on top of that.) The slow as fuck pace makes it kinda painful for me to watch after reading the manga.

It was entertaining enough all the way until after the kage summit arc. All the jesus bullshit and fated reincarnations as well as mandatory juubi revival was too much. While shippuden is generally considered to be the beginning of the decline of the series it still has it's saving graces. Akatsuki were interesting and personally I found Sasuke psychopath shenanigans as well as his team to be entertaining. Then it all just kind of got tossed away in favor of big bads and muh prophesies. If anything series should've stopped gaining in power levels after the kage summit and ended with a climatic fight between new team 7 and team taka.

>Naruto Part I
220 Episodes
127 of them are canon, 93 are filler.
Part I had 244 chapters.
>Naruto Part II
438 episodes so far
257 of them are canon, 181 are filler.
Part II had 456 chapters.
One episode is ~ 20 minutes.
There are less than 50 episodes a year due to Golden Week, breaks etc.
Most canon episodes cover about 2-3 chapters.
Going by this (and including all the pointless flashbacks in canon episodes), the anime should have taken less than 350 episodes to cover all 700 chapters.
There are 658 Naruto episodes out right now, 384 episodes are canon (which still contain flashbacks and some minor filler extended fighting scenes) and 274 episodes are filler.
274 episodes equal ~ 6 years.
We had 6 years of filler episodes in total until now and they are still doing more even though the manga ended over one year ago.
What happened to the king of games? Where are my gets?

>not weabond
>>133768603
I know I'm probably beating a dead horse with this, but I fucking hate how all the dialogue in that fight about your destiny not being pre-determined because of your heritage, blood line and all that jazz got completely undermined in the later parts of the series. Naruto was better when Naruto was an underdog who had to fight to get recognized and make progress, then it turns out he was super special all along and gets all those random power ups. Fuck Neji for being right.
>>133769062
>was an underdog who had to fight to get recognized and make progress
This was Lee's schtick, not Narutos.
>>133769110
They both had it going really, though yeah it was way more apparent with Lee. That's part of what made him one of the more likable characters in this series.
>>133769110
He was still wrong as fuck in his reasoning at the time though
>claims that there's no predestination
>Is literally one of the two reincarnations prophecised to save the world
Neji died living a lie
>>133769062
Kishi should have made Guy to successfully kill Madara in exchange of his life then nigger zetsu should have took whats left of Madara and summon the bunny girl
but noo we have to get a fucking backstab that doesnt make any sense

>>133769546
But why would you want a fight with such an obvious ending?Jober eye always loses.
Neji died via toothpicks. That was the best way Kishi could think of taking out an important character of the Konoha 12. Let that sink in.
>>133771772
back then it wasn't jobber eyes like how it is now and it was fairly equal to sharingan
also remember when kakashi said that sharingan could be a mutation of the byakugan?
>>133771818
Isn't that an analogy to how Hinata died in the Pain fight?
>>133771987
I thought she was just wounded in that fight
Yes, it WAS good, until shippuden it was just a nice comedy pretty entertaining to watch.

Naruto is a gateway anime of the worst kind. It's a bad series, a clusterfuck of story and characterization that isn't very well done by any aspect, but which attempts to compensate for its weaknesses by adding in excessive shipping faggotry and DARKNESS. The normal anon can see this as the shit it is, and may enjoy it, hate it or be indifferent to it, but all the while recognizing that the series itself, regardless of their opinion, is plain bad.
However, these very aspects that try to smear over the shit of its core make it a breeding ground for aspie, unsociable underageb& faggots who engage in every kind of faggotry both online and in the real world. The superpowered characters all trying their hardest to look cool, the jutsus, peculiar, colorful clothes, the whole ninja faggotry and everything about the Naruto world fuels their escapist fantasies, while the pity-party character backgrounds, emphasis on revenge, and overall preachiness of the series make it fit just right with the mary-sueish drives of your average preteen and his sense of unwarranted self-importance towards the world. Exactly the kind of shit that makes little kiddies and underageb& retards eat this shit right the fuck up.
Naruto is basically THE series to attract the most hated anime fanbase known to /a/, which is why, regardless of individual opinions, it is the responsibility of every anon to troll the fuck out of this show and everyone who likes it, and ensure that no Naruto threads ever encourage the newfriends to show their faces here.

Is it strange that I am a 90s kid but hated DBZ and vastly prefer Naruto? DBZ has way too much Goku/Vegeta focus. Even more than Naruto/Sasuke

Sorry, that's all I know/have. It was posted by someone here who translated it.
I enjoyed Naruto but the fillers really just killed me. I mean I swear there was a point where there was like 15 filler episodes before it got back to the main story. Then it showed some decent episodes for a little bit then back to a marathon of filler.
>>133776861
I could almost forgive the filler shit if more of it was funny/clever/interesting because yeah it was good to allow the manga to catch up and then adapt from that instead of making shit up, but suffering through that ocean of garbage was awful. The only one I even remember after all these years was the one with lee and the curryand the one where nardo saw 12 year old hinata naked but that's a given, that's how bland and uninteresting they were.
>there will never be a Naruto spinoff of Okusan about Hinata's adventures transitioning from being a kunoichi to a housewife
>Naruto only featured as faceless "darling", her neighbors have no idea he's the hokage
>Hinata will never gentle fist her way through other women at the grocery store to get to a sale
Truly life is suffering
>>133737390
If Zabuza arc were a standalone OVA, it would have be one of my favorite shows.
But i feel like the series itself went downhill after the death of the 3rd hokage
>>133744908
>>133744841
Pretty much what i think of it, i don't believe that there are people who actually had the nerves to sit trough so many episodes that came after.
Personally dropped it at some filler episode on some place god knows where on some escort mission (there was a race i believe).
After that i've seen some OVA where Itachi makes eggs, and read just the last chapter, because i knew will probably never watch/read the whole thing, just wanted to see if Hinata finally gets her love returned.
There are so many better anime that you could watch in the time it would take you to finish Naruto.
Will we allow Kishi's new Manga to be on /a/?

Naruto's whole Juubi arc reminds me of Gurren Lagann's outer space arc. Random powerups out of nowhere, but you are on the ride because it's going full-throttle anyways.
Simon = Naruto

I'm watching it now, at ep 26 or so and holy fucking shit. The filler. THE FILLER. They just had an ENTIRE episode dedicated to showing what happened a few episodes ago. They just showed up at the forest of doooom and were all "yeah we're gonna stop the show here and do a rerun". For fuck sake the Zabuza/mist thing took 10 episodes too many to begin with. I can't imagine how many episodes the Chuunin exam is going to take...

>S-Ai-Suke
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.
>>133802815

I will always be pissed that they didn't bring back jiraiya.
>>133810437
There wasn't any real need for it. He fulfilled his role in the story and got one of the best death scenes of the series.
Bringing him back would have just cheapened his death.
Tomatto's doujin got typeset a while ago, by the way.

Not really, he could have had a great exchange between the hokages, especially the 4th
>>133810574
Exactly. Naruto fulfilled Jiraiya's wishes. He stopped the Akatsuki, he changed the world, and he got to fuck a qt3.14 tittymonster for the rest of his life.
>>133810697
Jiraya will never visit as a force ghost when Naruto is having the maritals with hinata and give him a thumbs up.
>>133737390
we see more pre timeskip Naruto in shippuuden then we see post time skip Naruto. What's worse, Shippuuden probably contains more pre-time skip Naruto than original Naruto ever did
>>133737576
I remember. Those were great days. 4chan didn't exist yet in 2002.
>>133737576
No. I got a Naruto mag for free at a bookstore, looked through it, thought it could be interesting, and then watched the original series back when CN was airing it. I was wrong.
However, I do remember seeing one big wad of cancer around the time it was at its peak popularity; I was driving somewhere with my dad while he was on a job, he stopped to get gas, and when we got out, some fat mallgoth-looking kid came out of the station and started flashing those hand signs and screaming "SHADOW CLONE JUTSU!!!" and threatening to kill us with a kunai (a chewed-looking pencil) before his mom called him back in. He wound up having to be dragged to their car by his wrist, and he was crying about how his mom didn't give him enough time for the jutsu to kick in. That was classic.

thanks for the translation and good luck with your future projects

>Jiraiya will never babysit Boruto and Himawari
>Naruto will never yell at Jiraiya for showing his son dirty books
Thanks, coolest guy.

Of course he was pissed, they were only supposed to cheat on each other with their beards.
>>133765859
The moment I grasped how Kishimoto really sucked at giving "tragic villains" a legit motivation...
And how much of a retard is your average Uchiha fanboy

>>133765050
Did he actually say that?
I haven't gotten that far in the show yet but what's with the Sasuke being a dick meme? I know he's self-absorbed but does he not like his kid or something?
No fight in Naruto ever topped Rock Lee vs Gaara during the Chuunin Exams.

No, Naruto spent the whole gaiden telling Sarada that her dad is the most awesome person that has ever existed.
>>133813213
Problem is, as the story progresses so does his dickness and ends up getting away with it.
>>133813243
Kakashi vs. Obito was the best fight in the anime.
>>133737390
Why hasn't this guy been publicly executed yet?
Fucking Hiroshimoot i swear
>>133813259
Made this one myself.
>>133813857
You'll probably get angry, but nardo threads now seem to be allowed as long as they keep being about bort, best girl and sakura getting keked.
>>133814280
I'm not angry, just disapointed.

Welcome to neo-/a/.
>>133813567
Maybe if I actually gave a shit about either of them and it wasn't preceded by months of filler
>>133765621
>an entire generation
Some of us saw the massive drop in quality following that and actually got out quick
>>133814690
If you don't give a shit about Kakashi then why the fuck do you read Naruto?
I'm just glad that best girl won.
>>133814773
I like kakashi plenty, and the animation on the fight was nice, I just don't care about their history because it had been repeated so many times
>>133814822
Tsunade didn't win anything
>>133814608
holy shit kill yourself you're what's wrong with this board
Naruto is a gateway anime of the worst kind. It's a bad series, a clusterfuck of story and characterization that isn't very well done by any aspect, but which attempts to compensate for its weaknesses by adding in excessive shipping faggotry and DARKNESS. The normal anon can see this as the shit it is, and may enjoy it, hate it or be indifferent to it, but all the while recognizing that the series itself, regardless of their opinion, is plain bad.
However, these very aspects that try to smear over the shit of its core make it a breeding ground for aspie, unsociable underageb& faggots who engage in every kind of faggotry both online and in the real world. The superpowered characters all trying their hardest to look cool, the jutsus, peculiar, colorful clothes, the whole ninja faggotry and everything about the Naruto world fuels their escapist fantasies, while the pity-party character backgrounds, emphasis on revenge, and overall preachiness of the series make it fit just right with the mary-sueish drives of your average preteen and his sense of unwarranted self-importance towards the world. Exactly the kind of shit that makes little kiddies and underageb& retards eat this shit right the fuck up.
Naruto is basically THE series to attract the most hated anime fanbase known to /a/, which is why, regardless of individual opinions, it is the responsibility of every anon to troll the fuck out of this show and everyone who likes it, and ensure that no Naruto threads ever encourage the newfriends to show their faces here.
>>133814822
How is no longer being a pure maiden winning?
>>133813508
You mean he never gets his comeuppance? Well that's too bad. I cheered when Orochimaru punched his smug face in ep30. Also does Sakura stay useless for the entire series? So far all she's done is prevent Naruto from falling to his death with a kunai. She hasn't thrown a single punch.
>>133815098
No. It's you.
>>133815199
>Sakura stay useless for the entire series?
She literally does nothing for the entire original series
>>133815169
Did you forget that Naruto can regenerate body parts when he gave Kakashi his original eye? Hinata becomes a pure maiden again after each time.
Shit series.
Am I the only one who never watched the big 3 or anything dragonball related
>>133815371
>Hinata asks Naruto to regrow her hymen so she can get that sweet first time pain of being penetrated by her husbando every single time
kinky bitch
>>133815263
god damnit sakura
well i've heard good things about tsunade but that's not original series right?
>>133737390
Congratulations for having shit-taste, I guess. Try suicide next, you might really enjoy it.
>>133749081
>Neji disappears
Oh, yeah
>>133815225
>no u
>>133815527
That's the later half of the original series
>>133813243
Dude, the Chuunin Exams was the best arc on the serie.
>>133810172
Orochimaru did that on a whim, Kabuto ressed people with lots of planning behind it.
>>133815830
The only corpse he made modifications to was Madara's so he could bring him back in his prime with rinnegan + wood.
He brought back Nagato as an useless cripple, Sasori without any of his puppets and Kakuzu without hearts.

actually they made sketch of him for the last movie
>>133817072
He doesn't even have his swastika
>>133815156
Is that that reason why there's barely any Naruto threads on /a/?
>>133817072
Wasn't that fake?
>>133807702
those faces at the end always gets me
>>133817323
It is, the actual entry next to Lee in that movie guide was Gaara.
