Well The Last is the prime example.

Easy to solve with one Dose of RTN, not as good as ninja clash in the Land of Snow but still excellent

I haven't really posted my feelings about Naruto in general and the shippings so I think I'll do that.

 

 

On Naruto, it used to be something I couldn't wait to get home to watch/read but I just don't care about it anymore. I will always adore Part 1 and Half of part 2 but it left a bad taste in my mouth that can't be removed. It's  not just about the shippings but a multitude of  glaring problems that just seemed to be forgotten by Kishi or patched with a band-aid that can only hold the story together temporarily until SP or the new writer messes up. However, it seems that I can't give it up completely as I still check for news regularly so I'm not completely over it but I'll be soon.

 

On the shippings,  I hate them all and all the characters associated with the pairings except Sakura well I hate her current character but I love her in fanfictions so I can at least tolerate her. I'm not much of a NaruSaku fan now since the ending ruined it for me. Even when I look back fondly at the NS moments I automatically think of the ending and feel nauseous. I really miss the simpler days when I loved NS with all my heart but to be honest I loathe the pairing along with SS and NH. I just hate what the characters have become and it ruins it for me. I love the relationship Sakura and Naruto had but when I heard about the novels and saw how Naruto and Sakura barely interact in prints an image it my mind and I just can't see Sakura with Naruto anymore( unless it's a FF that's REALLY good).  

 

NH is even worse in my opinion and I still don't get the appeal of Hinata since I was never really a shy girl pinning after a guy for many years of my life. I mean if a guy doesn't like me move on and this is why SS as a whole was trash to me. He nearly kills her twice, mentally abuses her, verbally abuses her and kill any self-esteem she had and left it for Naruto to pick up and rebuild. A stalker and a doormat, two incredibly foolish girls. In a way I'm glad that Sasuke is hardly in the village and I think that's why Kishimoto did it because HE KNOWS it's a toxic relationship and having Sasuke around Sakura and Sarada can only end in tragedy. Hell, I don't even like the kids and I never checked up on them either. They're like filler characters to me.

 

Anyways, this is how I feel on the series currently. I literally ship Sakura with ANY character except Naruto or Sausage. However, if the NS fic is good I would read it but I tend to avoid those ,SS and NH fictions.

I've been listening to alot of Amande Lee's covers for anime openings,  mainly when I'm writing my book, and I decided to listen to the latest one and surprisingly it really helped me write. Not gonna say how, but it did. Then when I finished writing it, I decided to listen to it without writing, and not gonna lie  I was starting to tear up a little cause I can easily relate to the perspective NaruSaku both as a shipper, a reader, and how the franchise treats them.

 

 

[TheFlash]

Big fan of her covers and I completely understand how you feel. When I first entered the Naruto fandom I was surprised at how much hate NS got.

And on top of that the anime still continue while the manga already end 2 years ago.

It's like people already graduated from schools but you still repeating for 2 years, that's really really embarrassing, it's like seeing your former classmate already on college, get a job, get married, and you still repeating high school, Kishi already plan his new manga, while Naruto anime still airing and the manga ended 2 years ago. And it's gonna continue with the next gen zergling i mean kid.

Man I remember I actually cried when I read this: 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Damn it, If only.... What hell happened??

 

 

What was the point of all this, if it was meant for nothing...

What kills me smetimes is this:

 

 

 

 

And at the end Sasuke pokes her forehead. It's almost as if Someone at SJ wanted to spite us.

I agree,  like Naruto's ending was one thing, and I full heartingly believe Kishi is to blame especially with what he's said since then. 

 

However the ending of Bleach really gets me wondering, I mean while I did think it wasn't as bad. However, given how it eneded it really made me think that ending is not Kubo's intention for sure. We know he and Shounen Jump are not on good terms, and with the amount of restrictions they give him on the story, I wonder if the same thing happened with Kishi.  Last I check when the interview between him and Yahagi came out, Yahagi stated to Kishi "You keep listening to your editors for advice."  We all know the editors are apart of Shounen Jump! 

 

Not saying Kishi's forgiven, but I do think Shounen Jump had a hand in Naruto's ending as well whether its big or small!

Don't be surprise that they retcon this some time in the boruto manga to be the Sasuke in the flesh. How much of the original manga has been twisted and rewritten?

Naruto fans is kid and preteen, that why NS point of view is quite offensive for them.

[LuckyChi7]

You know there is one way how NaruHina and SasuSaku would've worked... how? 

 

 

 

 

Part 1...  If Naruto brought Sasuke back to the village, and that's where the story ended I would've been like okay i can see it.  That's one of the main reasons I see alot of people shipping them. I can see the arguement there, but you can make the same arguement with Part 2.  It's already a timeskip I don't give a damn what reasons people have, it just doesn't work because two years have passed.  With years comes time, and with time comes Change!!  that's the key word. 

[Bail o' Lies]

There are multiple ways you could make those pairing work. The things that they were missing and always needed were positive interaction and development of their bond. 

 

There no problem with the first time skip between part one and part two since everyone separated to train for two years. The problem is the time skip between the ending and the last. Two Years after hinata "confessed her feeling," and Sasuke gave that "forehead poke of love" and still no development between them. Then with in a year both of the girls are pregnant.

I have to disagree for one main reason, the real purpose of the Sasuke retrieval arc adn the final valley fight. Naruto fought with Sasuke to protect their bond and suceeded. But Sasuke managed to kill his bond with everybody else. If you look at sasuke after part 2 this is completely consistent. Sasuke only ever pays attention to Naruto and no one else. and this is bc naruto scratched his headband when they fought, proving that they were equals and bromance etc. But Sakura didn't and thats why Sasuke said he felt nothing for her at all. He broke their bond when he said goodbye. If anything had it ended if naruto had brought sasuke back it would hav been narusasu or narusaku.

Good God how I hate the so call bromance with Naruto and Sasuke and Naruto thinking that there was a bound with them, there was nothing Sasuke was always a kitten to everyone around him.

 

Hence why I know the Walking dead is now better to me than Naruto, I mean come on lets face it really no matter what world Naruto would be in he would die cause he thinks there is good in everyone, oh how good would it be if Naruto meet Negan.

[NaruSaku fan in Kentucky]

The best bromance is Sora and Riku. Why? Because unlike Sasuke, Riku redeemed himself and Nomura made it look real.

Anything new Kishimoto said concerning NS in the last few months ?

[Nar123]

Nah, not really

 

But it was funny seeing the NH fans complaining about Hinata looking flat chested in the new Boruto manga

 

Goes to show what they really cared about

The manga is going to be for 2016 only ?

[Konoha'sCrimsonFox]

Nope. It's going to expand into 2017. Maybe 2018.

[T XD]

What is he going to fill in in such a long period ? Turning the film into manga won't take this much time unless he goes very slow. Possible.
