This entire series, especially after the Sasuke retrieval arc has focused solely on that character. He left their village and joined Orochimaru in order to gain power, which ultimately made him a criminal. After some time, kills his brother (achieves his goal) realizes that he was wrong and joins an international criminal organization. After joining this group he had made it clear that his goal was to wipe out Konoha. However, even with this knowledge the deuteragonist decides to still to try to save him. 

If you think about, this basically summarizes the entire Naruto story (excluding the war) everything that was solely about Naruto or other characters was mainly filler (not all tho). Why does the actual story mainly revolve around Sasuke? Was he the intended main character, but due to the Shounen loud mouth MC rule Kishi had to resort to Naruto? 

Why did the female Konoah 11 members ( not all) want such person back in their village? Why did Kakashi and Sakura keep quiet about the fact that he attempted to eliminate the Kages as well as Naruto? You'd think Kakashi was smarter, eh? I mean, lets leave a manipulable man to roam our village. This goes for the other villages as well. 

The only thing Sasuke was missing in his achievements was being Kage; everything else he's taken from Naruto (deuteragonist)

Who was the intended main character? In my honest opinion, it seems like Sauce is. This series was about him, and everything was handed to him in a silver platter. 

Note: Sorry for any mistakes, wrote this before i went to bed 

It really is sad when you realize that nothing will ever be changed and Kishi is going to live his life without guilt, even though its likely he accepted some sort of bribe. If only this Manga had ended open ended. 

Hey, who knows, maybe you're right and the poke was secretly retconned to be a memory wiping Uchiha jutsu. Anything would make sense by now.  

If it means that Sasuke gets to become hokage or have an even greater importance to the village, then yes I can see Kishi killing off Naruto.

As it is already, Naruto's own child admires Sasuke and wants to learn from him. Kishi really sucks up to Sasuke geez. I could have sworn he stated that Shikamaru was his favorite character. 

That would be a horrible nightmare, just imagine Sasuke taking everything from Naruto once he dies.   

If only Naruto was smart enough to make Sakura his mistress ;) Her scumbag "husband", isn't there, so why not do your thing Mr.Kage? Let Hinata join as well~ 

What if Kishi actually has the balls to kill off Naruto, convincingly in this movie?

How different is that with how things are right now tho? the real Naruto died to us anyway. 

Are the theories of Naruto dying in the Boruto moving real? 

You basically can ignore Naruto Gaiden and not miss a damn thing.

Correct. 

I'm a bit surprised some people didn't see this coming though. I mean, as soon as l saw the first chapter of this useless continuation i knew it was a red herring. 

Both are terrible arcs as they didn't even help further the development of characters, especially the "War arc". That arc is the one responsible for leading up to such a messy ending.  

Gaiden....

Don't even bother  

Again, why the kitten is he leaving after disapearing for 12 years? For all you know this dude can be sleeping with so many different women, while Sakura takes care of his child. That head poke literally makes you forget all the wrong doings of a person, dafuq.  

This series was a complete waste of time, it was rendered useless quickly. 

Once again, how is Naruto to blame for Sakura's personality deficiencies? The thread isn't about Naruto. It isn't about "let's all come up with things to throw at Naruto and make it seem like its his fault".

Blaming Naruto for the type of person Sakura turned out to be is like blaming Naruto for the death of his parents.

He isn't one to entirely blame but he plays a big role in convincing Sakura that Sasuke could be saved and that he would bring him back for her. All he did was encourage her to keep having faith in the old Sasuke, when in actuality Sasuke was beyond saving and is shady till this day. After all of that, he still failed to go and confess his feelings. 

I don't blame him for how she turned out, that's her fault. I'm upset that he never confessed to her. 

But Naruto is to blame as well~ 

When she asked him to stop pursing Sasuke, the dude should have listened because by now he would've been married to Sakura. What an idiotic delusional kid he was, serves him right losing the girl he loved to that scumbag.  

Yes, I dislike her character this isn't new, I've always disliked her character. She's an incompetent and indecisive character that was hard to like, only reason I started respecting her was because of Naruto. She has become a joke in this new series, not just her though Naruto makes me cringe and Sasuke is always the same scumbag that he's been. 

The ending is still difficult to comprehended. 

Loved this rant! I didn't read everything but i think i get the whole idea here. 

Has that ever happened, where they decide to re-write the ending of a manga?

It would make my day if Kishi himself wrote an apology and explained how he had sold his story to a company. I doubt this will ever happen though.    

I think so XD I honestly don't see them becoming a couple, and Amon should stir up some things once he comes back.

I know their just my crack pairing lol. 

Before he comes back what if she find out Kaneki is the one that killed him lol and Touka killed her father... damn 

I know this pairing has small chance of happening but it would be nice path from the usual shounen route. 

Am i the only one who ships Haise X Akira? I hope their relationship grows. 

Guys, do we have a Magi section on here? can someone link me it, please. 

He contradicts himself too much, I believe the misleading part was a lie and didn't want to straight out say he sold out :/ Naruto is like a distant memory that almost no one wants to go back to unless you wanna read a story where's everything pointless in the end, so I feel it's better to move on because there are stories out there that are way better than what we got

I agree.

There are definitely better stories out there. Tokyo Ghoul happens to be one of them now  

Nope. At this point, I have moved on, and so have many other Naruto fans. I'm tired to constantly waste my energy for something that only brings me pain. Perhaps sometime in the future, Kishi the idiot will admit that what he did was a mistake- nah.

The only thing this can be fixed is to go back in time and to prevent this ending from ever happening. That's not possible unfortunately.

Wise decision. I've moved on as well. Although, i remember an article where he was interviewed and at one point he was going NS direction. Apparently he stopped because it would make Sakura a "bad" woman to get over Sasuke, cuz she loves him so much. However, he's never going to admit anything, i'm guessing that's the closest thing we'll ever get.

I'm definitely not going to bother getting into pairings to much anymore. I mean, if the man can make Karui and Choji happen. Then i wont be reading anything he writes ever again.

Would be cool if they offered her the job as a mangaka there. After all, she does have the skills to do it. I would be delighted reading anything she writes!

Nope.

Oh nvm then lol

@Gara's hair

Tokyo Ghoul is amazing isn't it? Its my replacement for this manga. Is it yours as well? 

Haven't been here for a while. Was the site down? 

So what's going on here? 

I agree, but ya'know, its Naruto.

OT: Anyone else hoping Bolt becomes a badass at his age?He seems to act like Sasuke, he isn't loud like Naruto. 

I really hope he creates his own nin jutsu, Rasengan is too main stream now. 

Sawyer was talking about this site. 

So he lurked here.
