He's probably just being polite. Who knows. Maybe he really did enjoy how Kishi handled the story after he left, but I doubt it. 

 

I do wish if he subtly 'punch' some sense into Kishi just like how we see Junko handle it.

 

And that pic, feels like Naruto say to the world in a manner like "I'm the chosen one? I'm selfless and righteous? You had been trolled! hmm hmm hmm"

This is completely offtopic, but when I was wondering when the new episode of Assasination Classroom will come out, I got to see this article on animenewsnetwork.com:https://www.animenew...-delayed/.83616

I pray to God that those two Japanese hostages will get freed.

NH never was a thing in manga, nor it was popular in Japan, and you saw what they promoted movie as.

 

My point still stands. The studio resents Sasuke with a passion that's hardly seen with any official animation studio. Interested as they may be in pandering to earn more in profit, their prejudice will shine through in one form or another.

Where do you lead with this? That they will destroy Sasuke in next movie?

o_o

Is 50 shades of grey bad? I promised a friend I'd go see it with her. I'm probably going to be traumatized aren't I
??

Its great if you're into sadism/masochism and lots of kinky twisted erotic kitten  . You'll be vomiting probably  .

In some form or another, yes. They may choose to assassinate his character in a similar form as they did with Naruto in "The Last".

Welp, they got away with killing Naruto and Sakura and their relationship, Sasuke don't bother me that much. His assasination will look like have happy family with girl that his friend loved. He at least got his Uchiha bloodline further (ugh, that's horrible to even image) but at least one good point to his character. Naruto got stripped of all HE wanted, to become trophy. So one part of fandom - will be happy with Sakura being his kitten, other part - that Sasuke alive, and a little to no at all, will be bothered with how he ended up.

I'm very sorry for those two japanese but I'd never finance those people with extorted money. I pray for them too though

This.

NaruSaku4Life3g just wrote it that way, like mangaka had bad reading skills, it's naturally that everyone saw NS as endgame.

Oh no. I mean that Mangaka don't support the canon pairing that is NH.

I know me and Ramen are bothered with what happened to him xD

[FireFox]

Yes I did! I had no idea what it was, I thought it was a romantic comedy LOL

Is it that bad? Yeah I'm so getting traumatized when I watch it XD
Lol is his name even Naruto? Was the whole kittening manga a mislead?! Nah.. who in their right mind would go this far to give a terrible ending then say "hahaha nevermind. Here's the real deal". Though this IS Kishi we're dealing with, a f**cked up person with a f**cked up mentality.

 

Its the best romantic comedy that you'll see in your life     

 

The Guy in that pic is Darth Nardo  he's like Obito  v 2.0 that one half of his face looks like  it has been pressed with a toaster  .

 

I pray for  those 2 Japanese people hope they get out .  I hate those radicals  mofos  last year they killed 5 kids from my country at the age of 17/18   I hope they burn in hell !!!

If I were to abandon friends just to avoid that, I will do so in a heartbeat.

Ok, I won't do that, but I'm sure thinking of it loudly.

I know, but not me, it's like that funny part of manga "if you undestand their pain, it doesn't mean you agree with them" xD

Nagato was right. Hard to explain, but Sasuke was never suppose to have all that "happy family" around him (maybe with Karin, but totally not like vagabond) and now he will have all that Naruto wanted. On other part Naruto have family but totally with wrong person if not by our choise - by story build up - for surely.

Me too, but if he were to do something like that he would most likely pull Kishi aside and say "You know. You kinda kittened up". 

 

Bolded: Yeah. Everything about post 699 Naruto just seems off. His face, his behaviour and now his signature smile has been replaced by some wannabe pirate smirk. It's so weird. 

[luffyq1]

He really does look exactly like Obito.. seriously, who the hell talked Naruto into this haircut? It looks awful. And here we were thinking he had to cut to his hair to repair his arm. Lol nope.

I hope they get out too. :(
We were mislead into thinking Naruto was a good guy. 700/The Last is his true self, being a b*tch who gives up in an instant, and neglectful father/Hoekage who drinks and surfs his MacBook 24/7.

well i guess he wanted to look like that cool guy

The biggest problem is that Naruto was never allowed to express himself. He was never allowed to get angry, or sad, or anything because of the expectations put on him. It goes back to that line Jiraiya said to Tsunade before he died, that rejection makes a man stronger and how a man's only purpose was to be strong. Naruto was never allowed to voice his frustration about his feelings towards Sakura, because in the end, no one ever took his feelings seriously, not even Sakura herself. She tried to, but then reneged on that fairly easily when she looked straight at Naruto in 693 before flushing her character development down the shitter, and then again when she ignored his existence.

That's one of my biggest criticisms of Naruto's character in general, outside the pairings even. Naruto was never able to express himself genuinely, to anyone. I wanted him so badly to get angry at Obito and Sasuke. I wanted him to get angry at the previous Hokage. One of the only times I felt that Naruto showed any real emotion was just after Jiraiya died, but then Iruka shows up and tells him he can't cry.

Another thing I felt that Oda did much better than Kishi when doing his male characters. Shanks' speech to Luffy after Ace's burial was one of my favorite quotes, as he states that it's ok for men to have emotions, which were stripped from the male cast most of the time (not all) in Naruto.

 

 

 

This is an outstanding point and one I've not really considered before. I know I argued with someone on here a few weeks ago about the confession scene, and misquoted Sakura's comments, but I DO think it is possible to interpret her comment that "the fool's in love with me" that she doesn't take his love seriously. I'm not sure I'd necessarily agree, but I wouldn't rule out such an interpretation.

 

And yeah, I definitely would have liked to have seen Naruto get mad just once. Like when he's talking to Kakashi and Kakashi references Minato. Shouldn't Naruto get mad that Kakashi never talked to him about this? That he knew who his parents were? Naruto almost turns into a caricature.

 

Both of these posts are great! And I agree completely.

 

AHK, you're right, Naruto was never allowed to express himself. Not once. He just had to take all this crap hand he was dealt in life, and keep on smiling. And I know he was a fiesty, brawling little kid, but that's not what I mean. Naruto took all of his orphan years, all of that rejection and hardship, and then his crappy relationship with Sasuke and then Obito, yet he never once got good and angry. Not even at Sakura. It's like he always had to be the hero. The only time he shows his frustration was in the ramen stand when someone asked his autograph. And then, getting mad at an anonymous guy, is about like yelling at othe driverrs from your car! It accomplishes nothing! It was the only way he could be angry, but not actually have to be responsible for directing it at anyone!! I would have liked to have seen him grapple with his own anger and disappointment and come out on top. I would have liked to see him emotionally develop farther than just the waterfall of truth (which was really only written to resolve that ramen stand scene).

 

And Narufan85, you're right, I would have liked to have seen Naruto get mad more too. Why doesn't he get mad at Sasuke for treating Sakura like crap? Why doesn't he call out Minato and Genma and the Third and all the othe people in the village who knew Minato was his father, who would have fought side by side with his mom and dad, and who would have died for them...then just left their only son to believe he's an orphan an treated like crap!?! I would have liked to have seen Naruto take to task those around him, instead of being painted as the great hero who can't get angry.

[AzureWaters]

Question, Is anyone sticking around for the mini series, or are you just staying in the fandom because you still want to discuss NaruSaku? Because I can't see anything to look forward to from here on out. I think it will just get worse for us when NH and SS are shown as families in the new series.

[TouKen4Life3g]

You know, after Pain Arc, Naruto became too forgiving. Coolest guy line, anyone? I don't even think that's the right path from Pain Arc. Naruto hated Pain even if he don't think vengeance is the answer. So what the hell.
