I thought the Itachi vs Sasuke fight was awesome. I like the Genjutsu duels. Maybe its just because I like that style and until now it wasn't used as much earlier in the series.

Yes, you can call me an idiot for whining and continuing to follow the series. I am aware of how idiosyncratic my behavior is. But sers, the series is annoying. It seems to be one giant commentary on society and about how people shouldn't look down on others. And it doesn't matter how talented/smart/beautiful you are, that's what you're born with. What matters is how hard you try etc etc ad nauseam. We got the point of this message by the end of the chuunin exams. The fact that Toriyama is still harping on this same stupid lesson is really tiresome.

If you disagree with me, that's fine. Misrepresenting my position is not. That's dick and unnecessary. I didn't "wine" about everything. I pretty clearly stated the parts of the series I enjoyed and the parts I didn't. But it's fine. I'm not here to get in arguments with fanboys. It's a pretty useless endeavor. Just don't twist my words into something they're not.

And Travis, I see your point. That is the inevitable conclusion of Shonen mangas, so like someone previously said, I should have known what I was getting into when I started following the series. It's just I feel that Naruto as a series could have spread the attention around a little bit more. Bleach has a less lopsided feel to it in my opinion. The characters introduced usually all get a lot of screen time and it's not always 100% about Ichigo/Rukia/Orihime. Naruto, on the other hand, is six years long now, and the 3 person love triangle is really starting to get tedious.

Especially when Naruto, the main character, is reduced to nothing but a babbling moron who's every other word is "I promise!!" or "SASUKEEE." It makes me wonder if Sakura is even needed. It would have been better off as just a yaoi with SasukeXNaruto in an epically dramatic gay romance, with Jiraiya/Itachi serving as the romantic foils for each. That way you can pull in the teacher-sex and incestuous brother complex angles as well.

Don't understand where imagination is coming into it though. Some elaboration on that would be great. I do want to like the series. I'm just really starting to lose faith. Only thing I can say is at least Sai finally stepped up and made things move along on the SakuraXNaruto front.

Do you think what Sai said will make her go for naruto more or will she become distant from him in a cliche "I don't want to hurt you because I love you thing"? I do agree with you to an extent as right now the only ones with the real power either have the sharingan or have a beast in them. I have to admit though I HATED Narutos character basically from day 1 I almost stopped watching it because it but other characters (mainly Kakashi) kept me interested. Only point I really agree on is I think your exaggerating the eye tech > all thing. It would be nice to see some more time from older chars though, I hope he doesn't start to develop the new chars (like the rain ppl who beat up naruto), then it would def be like he is half ass developing support chars then throwing them away. Honestly though I think some of the people like Kiba/Shino etc he stopped because they just weren't interesting enough but like Shikamaru is sweet as hell heh.

Yeah, see I feel like you do except my favorites were Rock Lee, Abarame Shino, Neji Hyuuga, Gaara, and Chouji. Kimimaro was also insanely bad ass. So I think it's pretty easy to see why I'm bitter.

Since the Sound vs Leaf arc, Rock Lee seems to be nothing but a punching bag, used for one whirlwind kick or two, then gets his ass kicked and thrown away to "recover" in some hospital for another year. Shino has been relegated to being a filler arc character who's only move is hiding bugs in people's asses and then sniffing his way to them. All the cool fighting that could be done with a bug swarm is not even explored.

Neji doesn't even show up. He's disappeared since we spent all that time developing his emo pain over having a swastika branded into his head. You'd think since he started learning the main branch techniques and getting over his angst, he'd be turning into an awesome ninja befitting his clan's ridic eye technique. It makes my heart cry in anguish seeing people shittalk the Hyuugas as a second-rate clan. There's a reason a war almost started over ONE Hyuuga corpse. It's just Kishimoto isn't doing jack to explore how awesome the Byakugan actually is. Again, he's using them as just filler characters. If he wanted to use them that way, we could have skipped all the character development and just given the ninjas chakra radars. Would have been about the same.

Gaara has just now reappeared after being pretty much a corpse since the end of the Chuunin exams. He had a brief cameo where he scuffles with Deidara, throws up a giant shield, then gets wtfpwnt. Sers, it's been how long now. 2 years since then? 3? And he just now shows up again at the meeting of the Kages?? And how much time will he actually get with that many kages involved now and with Akatsuki members all over the place?

I don't even have any hope left for Chouji. We've probably seen the last of the meatspin wonder. At best, he'll come in at some crucial point, roll in the way of some crazy eye technique, get his fat ass killed, and be like an emotional senzu bean for Naruto to go ape shit on Madara or something.

I would read this.

Anyway I read Naruto because after x00 chapter it feels criminal to stop. Kept up with it this long now I just want it to end.

So the guy Dazai or watever his name is is really Uchiha Shisui? The great leader of the Uchiha clan that didn't die?
And then the half face dude show up and say sasuke is somewhere nearby but the question is where.

Hmm so he gave another char an eye tech? Well at least its the weak one. I was never impressed by the hyuga clan. They NEVER showed any skills but great eye sight and a special form of taijutsu. They just seemed so limited. It does start to seem that he is setting up all the main players has either having an eye tech or a beast.


They are only limited because the clan is retarded.

The Byakugan in the hands of a completely unhindered ninja (IE one that does all forms of it instead of just stupid Jyuuken) would be a real force to be reckoned with.

The Sharingan is freakishly overpowered though, even the three tomoe'd variation is ridiculous. You could make a case that the Mangekyou is "rare" but it seems that any Uchiha of import has it so that goes right out the window.


Exactly, they keep hyping these eye techniques to be once in a generation type things, then everywhere you look, people got a fuckin sharingan or rennigan or byakugan! It gets really damn old after awhile. Great. You have cool contacts. Now can we get back to actual ninja clans with tons of diff techniques rather than this constant eye technique bs?

The show was way cooler when there were all kinds of diff fights going on, like puppets, wind fans, crazy sand shields, then some sharingan, Rock Lee's gates (supersaiyan), Naruto's demon form, juuken, shino's insect swarms, the ice mirror needles, etc etc. All the fights were different and cool.

Now it seems like every damn fight is just some stupid "MY EYE DOES THIS" and it destroys everything else. Sers, wtf kind of power was God Pain? Hi, I have super kill everything shield that I can use like every 2 seconds. That's not interesting at all.

Then there are the wtf genjutsus that are really boring to see. Mangekyou sharingan? It's literally two people stare at each other, then one guy falls over dead/tortured/etc. Wow. Fantastic. NOT. Or the other one, spontaneously burst into black flames that consume all of you and it can't be put out. What is this, Superman heat ray vision? The abilities aren't interesting anymore. They're plain boring to see. And as if a technique is gained by killing a loved one. Does that even make sense? More rubbish made purely for the sake of dramatizing. I understand it's fantasy, but so much of the later plot developments have just been needless tugging on heart strings and plot sutures to make all these mysteries make sense. When a mystery's been kept up for 4 years, yeah I'm going to be pissed when the explanation is all about some stupid eye technique.

lolwut hes right, eyes everywhere in the new chapter

This chapter made it seem like the other chars will have some greater role, with Shikamaru and Sai talking about how everyone lately has basically been relying on Naruto to save their ass.

Lol I think Kishimoto heard my rant and basically realized he needs to start involving characters again. AKA Even the creator agrees that the other characters have been neglected!!

I'm lost now.
How'd Danzo get Shishui's Eye?
Does this mean Danzo = Tobi = Madara?
How'd that one dude get a Byakugan?
Wtf is Naruto doing?
Where did Kakashi and Yamato go?

The one dude said basically he fought and killed a huyga and took it. I think from those few pages they are trying to say Danzo ISNT Madara but that he just took that 1 guy he mentioned eye. Naruto is being emo right now....LAME

Danzo got it from the Uchia founder. and I dont think that was Uchiha Madara. If you read the manga, he SAYS he got it by picking it of a Hyuga during battle against their clan. Kakashi and Yamato are with Naruto remember? Naruto is in the land of iron. Did you miss an episode or something?

Shisui was Itachi best friend, he probably took it and gave it to Danzo as a part of his mission to exterminate his clan. It has nothing to do with Uchiha founder and seriously stop inventing stuff out of nowhere.
To be honest reading Naruto is painful lately. Everything related to Sasuke is just plain emo shit, and people didn't like reading Naruto to see people cry everywhere everytime Sasuke's name is thrown out.
