Hahahahaha- NO !

I'm just saying. It's like making Naruto into the very first step before you can see all others as "better". Like if you see a good series before, everything in Naruto would look crap. Just trying to do a favor here.

Like, Naruto is a gateway series that gets you interested in the genre, and then you can move on to find better stuff?

Ok, bias aside: If Naruto had been my first and only series... I might accept NH, but I still wouldn't be shipping them. I just don't find them compatible.

I didn't realize until after Naruto had ended that the only manga many people in the western have been exposed to is indeed Naruto. Partially it's b/c of the artwork although I'm scratching my head asking myself what is really so great about Naruto's artwork... There are a lot of other shounens that offer you a lot of better artwork. Oh, and of course the whole ninja-concept.

Hi! Didn't realize no one has answered you yet.

I don't think anything important has been released besides the part in Shikamaru's novel where Temari got mad at Shikamaru and actually (hold your breath) cried.

To be fair, that's always the case, so yes. Though I too wanted this series to be legit good, when it did, but then it went downhill and became a typical shounen that if you start off that way from chapter 1, you're sure to get cancelled.

Anime helped first and foremost in US. The manga is the next step and then the rest is history. The ninja concept, the action, and so on is what set off in US. You need the right easy formula to make it grand. Like if One Piece wasn't pirate, it probably wouldn't be that strong in Japan. Luckily, a lot of mixed in such as good story, pirate theme, and so on made it grand in Japan. No pun intended.

*Sigh* What could have been...

[ichigo500]

Did you see it too? Man thats pathetic, NH and SS have canon childs confirmed and they still want to take NS fanon's child, oh my god, their butthurt is gigantic!!

Hahaha oh God...another proof that they're unsatisfied by what Kishi did ! I mean, it's clearly obvious that they envy our fanon things, and would like NH child to look like Shina-chan ! 

[rocci]

Naruto artwork = Akira + dragonball artwork.

By wiki, Akira is the gate for westerner ( America ) to touch Japanese anime after that, dragon ball anime who become hit on there.

[TouKen4Life3g]

I do believe we're the few that keeps DBZ heavily relevant. That's not to say Japan don't care about DBZ, but it's not as strong as U.S., hence "heavily".

[Liu bie]

What happen that Shina fake? So they try to steal to one our artist art?

[tricksie]

Oh man, I've got a Shinachiku fic in the works. I'll be so ticked if they pull him into the retcon vortex of doom as well.

[Tiller]

Okay so I was looking around the internet for doujins cause I haven't read one in a while since LadyGT's After The War and this one's  good but  at the same time it hurts when thinking about it. 

It's very understandable, but still sad the LadyGT won't be doing anything with us anymore. Hard to blame her though since she came so under attack by NH and SS. That and she was so heart broken by what happened... then had her person insulted by those asses.

 

Either way it's always good to see good NS fan work. For us it is the final ending. What's going on now in the "canon" world doesn't matter. Bolt who?

They'll find a way.

NH are kittening desperate that it's sad.

[TouKen4Life3g]

Here's what I don't get. If Uchiha is all about love apparently, why Itachi wasn't all that effected after killing his best friends and his parents? Like mental breakdown or whatever.

[Nostradamus]

Because he's the only one of them that can actually think.

What's more sad though I wonder? That they've always shot down valid arguments against their pairing with insults only to twist those arguments FOR their pairing? Or that they actually won and they still aren't satisfied?

OOOOOOOOOR, Kishi was on crack when he wrote that?

That's a cop out though. I can understand if he grew up in a different area, but the problem is that it's all in the brain, so regardless, he's doomed to go crazy. I don't get it.
