How come western cartoons can't land an ending for shit?
Take a look at this for example: Expertly foreshadowed, flawlessly built up, satisfactory conclusion, gives closure to every character, spites the worst part of the fanbase(sakura's fans)
How come the west can't do it? They've been at it longer
>expertly foreshadowed, flawlessly built up, satisfactory conclusion, gives closure to every character You mean Ed, Edd n Eddy's ending. Yeah, we have it. Now go back to Yea Forums.

Naruto is shit. Also,
Brandon Carter
They can. It's just that nobody gives a flying fuck about quality, including on this very board.
But Naruto is shit and doesn't even follow it's own damn themes.
Aaron Thompson
Naruto is a gateway anime of the worst kind. It's a bad series, a *********** 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 user can see this as the **** 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 **** 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 **** that makes little kiddies and underageb& retards eat this **** right the **** up.
AS an Yea Forumsnon, Naruto is hands down one of the ********* anime to come in recent time. It is absolutely horrible in every aspect after the Chunin arc
Great ending, would be a shame if a sequel came along and ruined everything. Haha...that won’t happen though right?
Also, Naruto went downhill so fast most fans were just happy it finally ended. Once every ninja was unleashing ancient god powers it went right off the rails.
Why do shonen anime do that shit so much? It starts out relatively grounded with clear rules to the powers and people generally having unique skillsets and limitations, gradually everyone becomes completely OP to the point that the only difference is a vague themed naming to their "blow everything up" attack, and then I just drop the damn thing. For all the shit weebs give superhero comics for not having much "zero to hero" stuff, at least the powercreep generally isn't THAT intense (and when it is, it doesn't last).

Because plenty of them are written with longevity in mind rather than quality. Naruto, DBZ, and MHA are more concerned with seeing how long they can drag out their story rather than telling a short but satisfying and well written story, which means the authors, who can't write for shit, constantly pull things out of their ass in order to basically do pic related.
Didn't Kishimoto only end with Hinata winning because the fans wanted it? Because Hinata is cute and Sakura is a boring asshole?
This kind of "wimpy trying to be brave" character usually loses so they can demonstrate their development by dealing with their disappointment gracefully.
Aiden Sanchez
To be fair to DB(Z) it wasn't supposed to go that long in the first place and had plenty of time for appropriate endings before the powercreep retardation went THAT far. One Piece for instance had no such excuse, being announced as this multi-decade epic since early on.
Yeah, I can see that honestly. I actually really liked the original Dragon Ball stories, because they felt like they were just Toriyama having fun and telling stories. Now it feels like he only does it out of obligation.
Carson Edwards
>hero marries the girl with the biggest breasts As it should be.
There's no need to spoiler that because it's not even a controversial opinion. Pretty much everyone agrees that the original was the best part of the series with Z peaking at the Frieza saga.
Luis Carter
hinata is boring sakura is human garbage change my mind
Brayden Sanders
That's not really an unpopular opinion outside of powerlevelfags. DBZ had some nice designs though, still. Super is 98% recycling DB and Z (and even GT) shit, 1% terribly unimaginative OCs, and 1% Vegeta character development.
Luis Garcia
>Naruto >Good ending Le
Jordan Watson
Yeah, Naruto sure was expertly built up. Remember when he claimed to be an underdog only to wind up having every single advantage either from genetics or nepotism?
Kevin Brown
Lots fo people see peak Z as the Cell saga, but in my experience that's because that's what was airing when they first watched it. And then you have the contrarians who say Buu was a return to original DB form. I agree with you though.
Alexander Phillips
Because the hero needs to beat the strongest guy there is, and then a even stronger guy shows up Ad infinitum
Daniel Anderson
Are you kidding? Naruto's ending was dumb Naruto's and Hinata's romance wasn't a focal point of the show, them getting married doesn't really say anything about Naruto's journey as a character and you can barely even call Hinata a character
Grayson Cook
NaruHina came out of nowhere. Hinata confessed to him like, 3 times and he didn't even acknowledge it.
It was only in the epilogue and anime that Naruto even showed that he was aware of Hinata's existence and that wasn't even written by Kishimoto.
I'm not saying Sakura would've been better, I'm just saying Kishimoto didn't do a good job developing NaruHina, it just kind of happened at the end.
Chase Thompson
Wait... is Naruto Jewish?
Anthony Lee
Nurutu is ass fucking terrible. Only casuals think it isnt pure unfiltered shit
Kill yourself please
Joseph Robinson
Naruto's weird in how it had so many legitimately good characters going for it, only to make the major focus on the trio with the worst chemistry and motivations.
Kinda Naruto's world building is entirely based on the importance of genetics While at the same time saying it's not that important (but totally is)
Cameron Fisher
Naruto always had the most raw power. That was part of his character from day 1.
The only time he didn't was after Orochimaru fucked with his nine tails seal in the Chuunin Exam. And Jiraiya undid that when he started training him.
Logan Gutierrez
Writers are afraid to move outside of a little box of possibilities when it comes the lead because they worry if it's too different no one will like it. But that worry doesn't come into play with side characters. Hence risks are taken and sometimes pay off.
Christopher James
It's utter bullshit that Boruto's artist draws her flat as a board.
Brody Hughes
Western cartoons have trouble maintaining integrity. Endings aren't planned or set in stone in advance. Writers change. Higher-ups interfere.
People who want original, singular visions to prevail are better off sticking to books, or manga, and anime. No shame in admitting this. These are just different kinds of products.
Jordan Jackson
Lee's the best, but I liked characters and teachers from pretty much every side-character team.
But they're all just bench warmers for Naruto and Sasuke after the whole exam arc.
The guy's an unrepentant pedo, Boruto is non canon anyway just ignore it.
Oliver Roberts
ATLA has none of these excuses and still managed to botch their ending pathetically with poor planning.
Levi Lewis
Naruto's ending was crap. Shipuuden was mediocre but it really went down the shitter after Pain. Naruto and Hinata's relationship was the only thing good to come out of it.

Poorly built yes, but if you didn't call it from her first appearance you may genuinely be retarded.
Joseph Nguyen
>Sasuke got away with everything
I don't understand the people who complain about this. Sasuke is literally Ninja Jesus at the end of the story, just like Naruto. Naruto is the only person capable of holding him accountable and Naruto just spent the whole story showing that he doesn't want to do that. Plus, Naruto is in love with Sasuke.
So Sasuke being a free man makes sense.
Ryder Harris
Sakura would have been infinitely better as a character if she was just allowed to tell Sasuke to fuck off in the end.
Most of them were one note as fuck and lacked any semblance of depth possible. You posted a good example of a non character.
James Martinez
Adding a new character who likes the main character when he already likes another girl doesn't imply this new girl will get him in the end. This kind of character is usually not very relevant to the main character.
Jaxon Hall
I thought it wasn't going to happen because Naruto had multiple chances to show reciprocation of her feelings and he took none of them. Even when it looked like she died.
It honestly made me feel pretty bad for Hinata that she kept putting herself out there for him and he kept snubbing her.
James Green
How does that make it a good ending? Lots of awful writing makes sense in canon, doesn't suddenly make it well written.
Julian Powell
There's no arc to it, it almost seemed like she was another editor mandated character that Kishimoto would forget
Nathaniel Mitchell
Are you saying the end of DB wasn't an ending an he always planned to make Z? That Goku's death on Namek and the apparent impossibility to bring him back to life (as per the universe's rules at that point) wasn't meant as an ending? Or the next time he died and they also stated he wouldn't come back to life? Or that time he went "BYE EVERYONE! THIS IS THE END OF DRAGONBALL AND WE'RE NOT COMING BACK EVER AGAIN"? And yeah, editorial meddling was a huge issue in Z, it's most obvious in the Cell saga.
Brayden Parker

He has shonen retard syndrome, that's literally it. Young boys don't give two shits about romance so why the fuck would writers waste time developing it in lieu of sick action fights and fart jokes? As far as they care he got the big titty bitch in the end and that's more than good enough for them. NaruSaku was dead in the water some time around the chunin exam anyway.
Ayden Hughes
Those are actually some of the worst anime. That they constantly get favourably compared to Westernshit is quite telling of the level of quality of said Westernshit.

Joshua Howard
Naruto was never a loner. When he shows up for the churning exams everyone's all like "oh hey it's naruto, what's up naruto?" And then even later you see flashbacks if him skipping class with the rest of the kids. The only guy that was genuinely lonely was Sasuke and pre time skip he was a much better character with an actual arc. Post time skip he's one of the worst characters ever created, naruto was one of the worst since the beginning though.
Christopher Gray
Leaf Village was basically just a grand nexus of stupidity.
Nicholas Nguyen
Then it makes sense that Naruto was able to turn them into a shining metropolis so fast.
I mean, it would if Naruto wasn't the biggest idiot of them all before Boruto started.

NaruHina was shit, Naruto's ending was shit, Naruto was mostly shit, Boruto is shit, Neji deserved to live and you're a disgraceful retard.
>japanese anime/manga They will have linear progression and eventually have an ending. Sequel is based on offsprings and the world is evolving >western cartoons/comics reboots/remakes/redos/rehashes Can't let the "iconic" character die off. The "future" shows are just for kicks and never built on them. Literally the reason why the west can't compete doesn't mean I don't enjoy the DC/Marvel shit. Takes forever to get something like dark knights metal and whatever marvel is doing after civil war. I just want entertainment provide it and I don't care if you're in first or last in someone's list. I'm entertained and that's what matters to me.
Both of these, fucking shippers will eat pure dogshit if they can ship the two flies on top of it together.
Colton Johnson

Logan Watson

Dominic Lopez

Carter Ortiz
Not a Sakurafag, I just don't think NaruHina was built up properly and came out of nowhere in the epilogue. There were lots of opportunities to show that Naruto was attracted to Hinata. Instead all we ever get from Naruto is his homolust for Sasuke.
And Sasuke is like, asexual or some shit so he shouldn't have ended up with anybody. And that characterization remains consistent in Boruto so it makes even less sense.

William Barnes
Romance manga and anime specifically have this problem. Even worse with harem series. You get virtually no plot advancement until the very last chapter and they just dump a half assed ending. You're lucky if you get an epilogue and it's usually the side characters talking about what's happening with the main character. Manga rarely has a good ending because they keep going without a planned ending and then when they get axed they have to hastily wrap things up and that's if they even get that. Anime adapts manga or LNs and they either cram everything in and can't get a decent ending or they can only cover part of the story and have no ending and never get another season.
>isekai Don't even pretend that trash genre is worth mentioning. It had it's few decent shows and now it's time to put that oversaturated shit out of its misery.
Congratulations on pointing out that 1%. Dozens of anime and hundreds of manga come out every year and you'll be lucky to find one or two from either that don't shit the bed in the end.
a time skip is not an ending, especially not when it isn't even the first time the show had a time skip and name change
Xavier Thomas
I know that this is a bait post, because of the naruto shit that even Yea Forums would tell you to fuck off for, but there is a reason. Most western animated shows have been historically created to take advantage of the syndication system where fifty-two episodes are produced to be aired weekly throughout the year. Because of this, most show runners either create shows, knowing that the people finding their shows want this, or they create the season's hoping they can get past the system. Regular show, for example, was created with the idea of a "monster of the week" attitude, and later thought more episodically, creating a mishmash of ideas that didnt quite pan out, making the ending seemed rushed. Same can be said for AT and SJ. But recently, with Star Vs. We see the latter of the two scenarios, where they were given less episodes than predicted. Though I feel it was a good ending, it can also be seen as "rushed". Anime, though, is given a bit more breathing room, or it was. Shows like Future Diary, or Gurren Lagaan were created with a plot already lined out for them to follow, through the source material. The producers arent looking to air the show long-term. Instead, their main source of revenue is from DVD sales and the miniatures (from waifu culture).

Brody Lee
Well when it's the same shit over and over again you can't expect for it to sell especially at its ridiculous price range and it still amounts to nothing. No proper anime adaptation. No proper movie adaptation. It's just gets recycled for ages then you get 1 new thing. At least they started making batman animated movies and superman animated movies are picking up.

Most of the Japanese stuff I've seen has the finale ramp the stakes up to absolutely bats hit levels with little prelude and causes the entire end section to feel completely divorced from the rest of the material. FMA Brotherhood is probably the anime that does the best signpost in for its finale out of the one's I've seen.

The west is currently obsessed with subverting expectations. Everyone knew Hinata and Naruto were going to get together, but it made for an ultimately more satisfying story because the show wasnt throwing nonsensical screwballs into the narrative for the sake of cheap shock value.
The irony is, of course, that many of these stories wind up taking the obvious route anyway so the random sidetracks feel completely superfluous and annoying anyway.
Jordan Brown
He was Kishimoto's assistant or something, so he figured he could take over for him. Kishi wasn't expecting him to reveal his love of baby faced lolis in slut wear and to make all the big tittied adult women ugly and flat.

Because neketsu storys on the shonen jump are thought to be told in the span of 10 years or more. So you end up runing out of grounded shit at certain point and have to keep the story interesting so sooner or later you start breaking up continuity rules and making new shit up.
And unlike capeshit they cant reset or soft reset the story, is one big continuos story tha keep going til the end.
The only writer I have seen dealing with this problem is Araki with jojo because he actually soft reset and hard reset his storys and even he had his moments too
Justin Myers
When I say pedo, I mean like real pedo, toddlercon type pedo. Not the idealized lolicon stuff people shout pedo at.

>That Goku's death on Namek and the apparent impossibility to bring him back to life (as per the universe's rules at that point) wasn't meant as an ending?
It wasnt if you see at vegeta and gohan character arc they werent even close to finish at the end of namek.
The real ending was supoused to come at the end of cell arc when gohan is finally a real warior in charge of protecting earth and vegeta accepts that he cant keep living behind goku shadow and power is not everything (still vegeta got some kino moments in buu saga that completed his arc even better, shame that the rest of buu saga was trash)

Vegeta's arc could totally have endede there though, even if it had room to grow a lot more. It's absolutely fine to set up the new gen and not follow up on it too.
Please let me know what you think, even if you hate it. Always curious to hear opinions of the show as long as they aren't blatant bait/spam. And try to watch at least the first 4 episodes if you can, I got hooked right away but episode 4 is where the show became truly special for me.

Eli Allen
>There were lots of opportunities to show that Naruto was attracted to Hinata. Which there was, watch Naruto the Last. Its pretty much the focus of the film.
Ethan Morris
if you mean in namek arc it was hardly set up at all. It was implyed since his first introduction that gohan was this normal kid with HUGE raw power inside him. So much that he could surpass goku eventually.
At the end of namek saga gohan hardly did anything and was more about setting the super sayan that was being hyped til that moment.
The real moment when gohan shines and was set up as the new generation was at the end of cell saga when it was implied that he was way stronger than goku and vegeta and took gokus mantle as protector of earth.
Is a much better ending character arc wise
Easton Watson

Seriously, Naruto was presented as a nobody who was triumphing over people with elite bloodlines and inherited superpowers because hard work is more important.

Joseph Richardson
FMA, Death note and Slam dunk are leagues better the other three are just more popular with modern shonenfags
Logan Adams
He has more then raw power. His Uzumaki genetics and 4th Hokage genetics give him access to an assload of bullshit abilities.
Eli Gonzalez
Because they want to make each new villain to be a greater threat that the last one, and then the hero has to get stronger to defeat that new threat. And most manga artists aren't creative enough to find a way to do that while keeping each character's powers unique and holding to consistent rules.
Grayson Howard
Forget even that, think long and hard about every episode or manga chapter you remember. Has Sasuke and Sakura ever have a goddamn conversation with one another in the two decades of the Naruto franchise?
True. But it did have an engaging story, characters, worldbuilding, and it still fucking nailed its finale.
Thomas Jackson
Yes, I know. I'm saying that his raw power made him special from day 1 and the other broken abilities were retconned in later.
But Naruto was a never anonymous nobody who relied on hard work to get ahead. He had special abilities from the start.
Daniel Rogers
Toriyama makes up DragonBall as he goes along and doesn't plan. He knows that Shonen Jump is a weekly magazine and there's no way to plot out a long running story on a tight deadline.
Oda on the other hand works hard and will most likely die like Tezuka
Isaac Collins
you really shouldn't bother with these people
keep speaking out against this kind of behavior.
Jason Miller
Honestly SasuSaku deserved the movie more to show how they ended up together because their relationship is so damn retarded it makes no sense. Their first date lasted 2 minutes, Sakura literally has no pictures of them together so she had to paste her pic over his Akatsuki group shot, he didn't call or send her a letter in ten years despite having a cellphone and keeping in contact with Naruto. Hell I doubt they are even legally married, her calling herself Sakura Uchiha is a fucking lie.
the only good thing about Naruto is that it ended. meanwhile western media breaks box office records every year.
Samuel Richardson

>LOOK AT THOSE TITTIES finally a sentiment I can get behind.
Because you can list all the anime with satisfying endings but then you realize you haven't even hit double digits while going over the entire history of the genre. Ret/a/rds think they can prove a point by highlighting one or two shows and then don't talk about the hundreds of others that either have no ending or a shit ending.

Hunter Jenkins
I never understood how Byakugan was supposed to be more powerful than Sharingan and how Hyuugas were supposed to be more powerful than Uchihas.
Sharingan seemed to have unlimited power and Byakugan just allows people to see chakra points, and see far distances but it has a blindspot that even nub-tier ninjas like Kidōmaru easily figured out and exploited.
not compared to Sharingans that can create Tsukiyomi or black holes or destroy the universe just by looking at people.
Byakugan has no chance vs Sharingan, gentle fist is weak shit compared to Uchiha eye jutsus we've seen from madara, Sasuke and Itachi.
Eli Scott
>I never understood how Byakugan was supposed to be more powerful than Sharingan and how Hyuugas were supposed to be more powerful than Uchihas. probably on account of Hyuuga bloodline still being alive with like a hundred Byaku-users unlike all those dead-ass Uchihas that got they eyes snatched and turned into some old nigga's body horror.
Alexander Davis
Kakashi was the only one to say that the Byakugan might be superior to the Sharingan. Which is probably Hyuuga/Konoha propaganda to begin with. But the fact remains that the Byakugan functions better as an eye than the Sharingan. The Sharingan is better as a super power though because it comes with a lot of OP bullshit like the ability to retcon the events or force someone to loop until they become what you want them to be.
Julian Cooper
Sharingan's basic ability is copying what other people do. It's literally a skill almost every human alive is capable of.
All that extra eye-hax bullshit needs some bizarre murder-ritual to unlock at which point it stops being the Sharingan.
John Nguyen
the sharingan hax bullshit was so stupid even for a series already about magic ninjas
Thomas Adams
This, Sharingan wasn't more powerful until it was turned into the ocular version of pic related.
Exactly and dont need to kill friends to unlock the next level
Parker Kelly
>not compared to Sharingans that can create Tsukiyomi or black holes or destroy the universe just by looking at people. That was all after the author got a massive Uchiha boner that couldn't be satisfied. It was pretty underwhelming at the start.

Oliver Bell
>if you mean in namek arc it was hardly set up at all. It was implyed since his first introduction that gohan was this normal kid with HUGE raw power inside him. So much that he could surpass goku eventually. And you end it there. That's fine. The future having huge potential is basically how you end a story. It wasn't Gohan's end, it was Goku's the fucking main character
Austin Gonzalez
>Naruto >Better than FMA God imagine having taste this shit. Naruto's fucking bottom of the barrel man. I don't even like Death Note or Slam Dunk but I still think they're better than Naruto.
Carson Brown
Even when Itachi first flexed those powers they were still pretty limited. You get cool black fire and super illusions they just blind you,drain your stamina and someone with 2 brain cells realized it's all focused on your line of sight.
Jacob Sullivan
Because Naruto, as big as it was, had the highest chance of choking the ending and pissing off fans. Instead the creator finished the series well. That gives other series, less popular, no excuses on why they make shit endings.
Alexander Watson
>How come western cartoons can't land an ending for shit? I too wish some cartoons would have 300+ episodes to make a fully fleshed out story like animus
Joseph Sullivan
Your opinion ain't worth shit. Try watching more anime to truly appreciate Naruto. Once you're over the age of 30 you will look back and see how wrong you were.
Elijah Brooks
But DBZ wasnt about goku it was about gohan. At least it was til cell, after that it became goku wankfest.
Lucas Moore
Most people that watch more anime grow to learn how shit Naruto really is, and top fucking kek implying that anyone older than a teenager actually likes that garbage.
Your opinion ain't worth shit. Try watching more anime to truly despise Naruto. Once you're over the age of 13 you will look back and see how wrong you were.
Henry Butler
you are falling for the oldest bait on the book senpai this is why no one likes narutards on Yea Forums
Blake Bennett
Because the west never gets the time they need to tell the whole story. They always get prematurely cancelled and have to rush out an ending.
Nolan Parker
Saying it was about Gohan was a stretch, he grew as a character and at the end of Cell the torch was in his hands. But even leading up to that point this series was 80% Goku focused/driven.

Check again how much screen time goku had vs gohan in the first 3 arcs. Goku was more like a plot device to unfuck everything when it was beyond fucked til gohan was strong enought.
If you check the sayan, nameck and android saga goku is absent the mayority of it and he comes til the end. The one he is the most prominent is in android saga as a teacher of gohan

Because Yea Forums doesn't read manga except for Akira because they still think they can pretend it's a comic so they can make their industry look better by including it. FMA, Death Note and Slam Dunk are some of the most popular manga in existence, like, at the very very top.

>It was only in the epilogue and anime that Naruto even showed that he was aware of Hinata's existence and that wasn't even written by Kishimoto. While I agree that it could've used more development, especially in Shippuden, the whole Chunin Exam arc had quite a few interactions between them.
Hinata being in love with Naruto was as big as her boobs for her age. Also have believe Naruto is one that few protagonists who would be justified having multiple wives.

Connor Hughes

Zachary Hughes
Kakashi having a single Sharingan he couldn't even use properly was enough for him to mindfuck and destroy Zabuza while putting in hardly any effort.
Hinata had full power Byakugan and was still useless.
Austin White
Sharingan basically allowed the user to do anything they felt like just by looking at people. Even when nanosized bombs were attached to your individual bloodcells (RIP Deidara) Sharingan allowed you a way to magically defeat it out of nowhere
Nathaniel Adams
Kakashi was one of the most prodigious ninjas to ever come out of his village. Sharingan or not, he would've creamed Zabuza.
Leo Stewart

Nathaniel Davis
>The real ending was supoused to come at the end of cell arc when gohan is finally a real warior in charge of protecting earth and vegeta accepts that he cant keep living behind goku shadow and power is not everything You've got nothing to back that up with. Toriyama said he planned to end the story shortly after the first arc, but kept things going a little longer, until eventually he had the whole run of the manga. There's never been a single quote from the man to suggest the Cell arc was the end.
Henry Morris
>Naruto secretly being Salad's natural biological father... You mean with Sasuke?
There’s literally no western animation as good as the best Shonen, they just don’t exist. HunterxHunter, Gurren Lagan, Yu Yu Hakasho, Full Metal Alchemist, Mob Psycho 100...all of these are leagues better than anything we get in the west. The closest contender is Avatar and even then it’s just nearly as good. The problem with western animation is they honestly don’t want you to take it seriously. For all the jokes in Shonen in the end they still have a heart inside that makes you fear for characters deaths and cheer for their victories.
Aaron Moore

Hunter Ramirez

Jason Hill
>Hunter X Hunter could you imagine CN/Nick/Disney having the balls to make anything as good?
I mean... The only thing I liked about the Naruto series at the end was that Hinata ended up with Naruto. There was no satisfying conclusion to anyone's arc except maybe Sasuke's and even that one was a complete 180. The manga became total garbage when the final battle commenced.
Basically every character they didn't focus much on. One of Naruto's biggest problems was that the amount of focus a character got tended to be inverse to their quality as a character. The core cast was fucking shit while the rest of the cast got progressively better the further away from the core cast they were. I think Kishimoto has shit fucking taste in characters.

The author said we're about half way there anyways. DBZ and Naruto never had fucking plans to begin with. Why do DBfags constantly defend Toriyama on everything? The guy is a hack and obviously never gave a shit even back then.
Dominic Phillips
I love Slayers too man but you can't honestly say that Lina learning Ragna Blade and Giga Slave weren't power creep.

>She had two, both known for being literal fucking retards.
Konohamaru thought she was cute.
There was that random guy outside of the Forest of Death.
And then there was that guy in the war that gave her a love letter.
5 guys, faggot.
Jose Lopez
the show was about proving people wrong and never losing your soul through hardship. not naruto being a scrappy nobody. the scrappy nobody part was to show how to deal w being bereft and lonely, and the op part was to show how to deal w going from zero to hero.
the contrast was sasuke, who had everything so didnt know what to do when he lost it and would have been consumed by the shadows w/out narutos example
Austin Thomas
The ending was garbage what the fuck are you talking about? Naruto was shit after the first arc and just kept spiralling. That ending was just harry potter for anime. There was nothing good about it.
Except not really because sasuke's fights are all lame as he only wins with bullshit eye powers.
Jacob Jones
>Konohamaru thought she was cute. Only because Naruto did, and he wanted to one up him.

Luis Sanders
You got proven wrong. Stop moving the goalposts. Sakura had the most guys fall for her out of any female in Naruto.
Joseph Garcia
Can we all stop and agree Sai was leagues better of a friend than Sasuke ever was? That Sai tried to understand people, even when he knew absolutely nothing about socialization, long before Naruto started his quest of understanding people like Pain to fulfill Jiraiya's wish for peace? That he is the only guy to call Sakura ugly and shamed her for trying to trick Naruto into thinking she liked him just for her own closure over the Sasuke case? Can we just admit he's the best?
Colton Kelly
Because no other female got any panel time, retard. Ino was ten times as popular as pinkshit because she wasn't a vile harlot with an ugly face and boy's body.
>That he is the only guy to call Sakura ugly But he was meaning the opposite when he said that.
> and shamed her for trying to trick Naruto into thinking she liked him just for her own closure over the Sasuke case? But that didn't happen.
Anyway, Sai was always just the Sasuke placeholder to Team 7. The moment Sasuke showed up during the war, Naruto and Sakura dumped him like a bag of bricks. Kishimoto even did him dirty by having him attack the Ten-Tails saying he was also a member of Team just to get BTFO in the next page.
Nicholas Brown
This sounds like a you thing, not a Sakura thing. I'm sorry you don't like the character and desperately want her to be ugly and disliked in-universe. And I'm sorry your waifu didn't have any guys come to her.
Jackson Rodriguez
>But he was meaning the opposite when he said that. No you idiot. He called her ugly and then realized women get upset when you tell it like it is. So when he came up with a nickname for Ino he said the opposite of what he thought. >But that didn't happen. It did though, read the manga.
Joseph Hernandez
>Was originally going to end at 30 volumes Ever heard of pattern recognition?
Why doesn't Naruto just make like fifty shadow clones to do paperwork so he can hang out with his family every now and then? Like I get he wanted to be hokage, but come the fuck on Naruto, Bort is a fucking mess and the strongest Ninja in the world should be teaching people to be better ninjas not doing desk work. I always hated that when Kishi revealed that's what the job was with Tsunade. Doesn't it feel stupid to anyone else that World's Best Ninja is a glorified office job?
>Spider-man with a harem >MJ, Betty Brant, Black Cat, Gwen Stacy, Liz Allen, Firestar... He's kinda been there done that but I'd watch High School DxD like show with Spidey and his honeys...yes Im a degenerate.

something could be done with this concept but in universe its as accepted as a reality as it is in the real world.

Dominic Cox
That's typically the rule I follow, but I'm such a mega-sperg for One Piece that I just know I'll be happy with it. I've been happily following the series for over a decade, Oda's mentioned that he's had the ending planned for a while. That and I think I read something once about a make-a-wish kid being told the ending to One Piece by Oda himself, and the kid said it was "beautiful", which is really weird language for a kid. It's not like I'm not critical of One Piece ever, there are little things I don't like, but I'm sure the ending will be something I really enjoy. Maybe it'll be up there with Tomorrow's Joe even in terms of being iconic.
Nathaniel King

Sorry. Quality writing, I tell ya.

The power development in Dragonball Super makes DBZ seem very logical in comparison.

Jaxon Torres
>the west can be fantastical with it’s settings but they grounded in a possible basis >east just goes batshit crazy with it Why is this? Btw can Yea Forums post on their fucking board for once
Whether or not the anime made the divide is irrelevant to the fact that what came before it is better than what came after.
Luis Gray
It did make me chuckle when Kakashi says that by all rights Sasuke should be arrested. As if everyone forgot that if he wanted to Sasuke could become a literal immortal power of pure destruction that even Naruto couldn't beat. I mean one of Sasuke's plans during his emo phase was to use all the tailed beasts power and make himself into an immortal bad guy that the ninja world would be forced to work together to stop.
Ending was shit anyway because the series never actually proved that Madara, Nagato, Tobi and Sasuke were wrong...if anything Boruto just proves that Naruto was wrong and is also a sociopathic egomaniac that is happy supporting a clearly broken system provided he gets to live out his childish dream of being a Kage.
Oliver Peterson

Justin Cruz
The difference is while both are effectively war criminals Orochimaru isn't near omni-powerful while Azien is. At any point in time Naruto or Sasuke can outright kill Orochimaru if the situation requires it.
Meanwhile Azien is so powerful that he made Ywach completely lost his sense of time while strapped to a execution chair. Reminder that this is the only time in the entire series Ywach was caught off guard and did not expect it. Also it should be noted that Azien can't be executed since he can't die (at least by soul society's tools).

Notably flawed but compelling and satisfying series. People simply hate it for its popularity
Chase Ward
Because Dragonball set the standard and it was nothing but "And even an even more universe shatteringly powerful guy showed up for Goku to fight" over and over past about the halfway point.
This wasn't entirely Toriyama's fault as he tried to do other stuff but his editors insisted he make another super strong boss enemy for Goku to have a beam fight with because that was what people liked.
Jonathan Morgan
>compelling and satisfying the number of fans that dropped the series due to filler-arc hell points to the contrary.

That's because you're looking at anime from an American perspective. If you've actually been to Japan, you will find that box office records for their theaters to be quite different.
