Now that the dust has settled, can we agree that Naruto is one of greatest shonen MC's ever conceived? He's one of the few guys along with Goku who has notably inspired blatant copies of his personality.

Asta is better.

Yes, he was, at least the part 1 Naruto was iconic. Like it or not, both him and Sasuke became an unavoidable measuring stick for MCs and rivals for years

Trash

Deku is what you get when you mash up your typical bland self-insert harem mc with Naruto, a very contrived character whose motivations and actions are based on what's most convenient for the harem trope or Naruto scene the author wants to follow. He doesn't have much self-confidence but still thinks he should be the next All might. He's shy and supposedly analytical but still impulsively charges straight into situations like he's Naruto. He gets picked on by Bakugou but still treats him like Naruto treats Sasuke, as his gay lover. All bnha is, is a shitty cash grab to appeal to low iq retards with shit pattern recognition by straight up ripping off things that were COOL in Naruto and building the story around those cool things. That's why most of the other parts of the story are filled with ANIME tropes and cliches.

Take Kouta who's similar to Inari from Naruto in that both of their parents were killed from trying to be heroes, with both now resenting the act of trying to be a hero thinking it's dumb because it took their loved ones away from them for no reason. Except that in the bnha world you literally get paid for being a hero along with plenty of other benefits, so it's not like they're doing it for free. Unlike in Naruto where it was just one man going up against a much larger force because he was trying to inspire people to stand up for themselves.

So when Horikoshi took Inari's story and tried to insert it in bnha, the context no longer makes sense and Kouta's view point on heroes just comes off as retarded.

Naruto is pretty polarizing as an MC, he's a great character during
>Part 1
>Pain arc
>Boruto
But he's pretty shit everywhere else, albeit you can trace a lot of that to Sasuke being a shitter

Are Asta posters and Gon posters the same people? Because the style is certainly the same

Inspiring copies usually speaks about either the greatness of sales that the original brought or the greatness of potential sales the copy-maker sees, not about the greatness of the character. He's pretty good though, at least towards the beginning.

Yeah Naruto is a pretty good MC, I won't deny that.
Sticks to the whole "hotheaded but still reasonable"

Asta is literally the worst shounen mc

>that moment during the Pain arc where Naruto confronts Nagato and despite being tired as fuck,he's still suppressing the Nine-tails telling Pain it's taking everything he has to restrain himself from killing him right there

Why couldn't we get more shit like that?

He had some pretty good moments, but I suppose people just watched Naruto for ninja fights and not characters.

I mean, with Naruto there and as wiped as he is and with Kurama now freshly refucked thanks to Minato, if Naruto had tried to kill Nagato right there Konan would have paper slapped the fuck out of him.

No. He’s an annoying little shit.

Deku also doesn’t have a bridge named after him.

>dude hard work prevails over talent
turns out to be a god reincarnate
i dont mind him being a reincarnation, but dont make his character always talk about hard work when hes just a hypocrite

No, I dislike Naruto overall.

His sentimental crap towards Sasuke ruined it

>A FUCKING HEART ATTACK

Sasuke cucks Naruto

Marrying pinkshit is his redemption arc.

>plot holes out the ass
>childhood retconned several times
Can't hold a candle to Urameshi

Naruto’s childhood is really retarded. Who took care of him as a baby? Why does he live alone and not at the orphanage? Why does nobody try to adopt him? Like Teuchi.

Based.

Because Kishi is a hack.

>Who took care of him as a baby?
Kurama

No.

Now imagine if nardo knew that the reason he was an outcast with no parents was because of coolest guy. Maybe he would actually suck his cock

This is because Kishimoto is amazing at coming up with individual ideas, but then inept at fleshing them out and coherently putting them together.

The initial concept of Naruto as a character (his personality and why he acts the way he does and what his goals are) is really fucking good. It was only after Kishimoto was naturally forced to build on his initial concept and mature Naruto as a person did things break down. But that was never actually problem with the original idea of Naruto, it was an issue of Kishimoto being a literary hack.

>No. He’s an annoying little shit.

Annoying =/= bad character.

He’s the worst character in the series.

He’s not Sakura though?

>Hyperventilates over Sasuke

So does Sakura.
