Im on like chapter 530 and slowly losing interest. Its a pet peeve of mine when a story has too many characters and now theyve thrown in like a hundred new characters. And to make matters worse now theyre all wearing identical uniforms so its harder to tell everyone apart. v_v

And of course everyones gotta tell their tragic backstory and explain how their powers work. I dont caaare. Where the FUCK is that orange kid

It does improve. You're in the weakest part of the war. As things build toward a climax, the events take on more focus and the amount of characters and locations directly involved becomes easier to follow.

It's funny how that isn't even at the time skip for One Piece lol.

Quite a bit. But the war and ending is just awful. The actual final fight is pretty good, imo, but everything getting to it is really rough.

Honestly yes. I enjoyed most of it. Naruto really matures as it goes on. And he gets some great moments in some fights.

Its honestly bizarre how obsessed with Sasuke Naruto is. Even Sakura was willing to move on but Naruto wont ???

Like bruh you guys were friends for maybe like a year back when you were twelve. If my childhood friend (who I havent spoken to in like four years) became an international terrorist and tried to murder our mutual friend multiple times, I wouldnt be sticking my neck out for him.

I dont know how Naruto ends and I havent seen any of Boruto, but I know Sasuke and Sakura end up having a kid together. Which is just bruh. He tried to kill her. MULTIPLE TIMES. And she still has a baby with this man?! Again, I havent seen how he probably redeems himself in the end, but theres no way he redeems himself THAT MUCH.

Also wtf @ that time Sakura confesses her love to Naruto. Were the writers trying to make her as unlikeable as possible?

What? At least the Naruto war tried to be a war with fronts and night operations and logistics issues like communications. Marineford was just a giant chaotic pile of background characters punching each other for an afternoon, and while it certainly has important things that happen for the plot, as a war it's the worst one out of the big three by far.

Just like Harry Potter and Final Fantasy and Borderlands, Naruto went to fucking shit because I started liking it. In this case, right around when the time-skip happened and it all went to shit.

Every fucking thread like this just serves as a reminder that kid me was an redacted fucking redacted with garbage taste in anything.

You could always try...not basing your identity and self esteem around a fictional IP? You post this in every single topic as if millions around the world haven't experienced the very same thing yet don't complain about it every single time it gets mentioned.

TC I unno if you'd be interested, but someone shortened each Naruto episode to ~2 mins and uploaded them on youtube.

As someone who stopped right after Naruto vs Pain, these episodes helped me to catch up and realize I missed nothing important.

The problem is the stuff I liked that went to shit is stuff that keeps coming up in discussions for some reason for another.

Harry Potter because Rowling can't shut the fuck up, Borderlands because it keeps getting worse and worse games and now has the worst movie of the decade too, Naruto is STILL the go-to punching bag for everything bad about shonen even this long after it ended...

Literally less than 1/3rd of Naruto was any good, it never deserved any success and it was mostly a fluke.

Pretty much all of Part 1 was good, and most of Part 2 outside of the last arc(s).

That's way more than 1/3rd. There's a reason it's one of the best-selling manga series of all time.

More a rollercoaster. Its good then its bad then its good then its amazing then its horrible etc.

There are some legendary ass moments though. Like when Spoilers uses the spoilers to spoil the spoilers out of spoiler guy

Kakashi vs Spoiler is cool as shit in the anime version and you should at least watch that once you read the manga chapter. You'll know which one I'm talking about when it comes up I feel
