May I inquire who this author was? You can answer me by PM if you don't want to say it here for everyone to see

 

Also this post of yours

 

 

 

 

I don't see any harm ins sharing the author. It was Digitize27, who wrote "Sage" and "Yellow and Red Makes," which are two of my favorite random-ship stories.

Thanks though I still like NS, a nicely done random pairing fic is still a treat...it's a shame he/she stopped but still completely understandable in a way

[Shashank95]

I don't know why but crack pairings make my skin crawl...........   

 

I only stick to NS stories in FF.

 

Has anyone read Digifruit's stories..?? The guy's gotta be one of the best NS authors out there.

I just realized something. Were at the end of Gaiden and we never even got to see that huge modern city the size of Tokyo. Lol, what?

Well, we got McDonald or whatever it is. That's the closest you can get. I think the whole point is that they're in modern setting somehow. But yeah, Kishi could have shown more but hey, he didn't show three other villages, so who am I question.

They will not put all their cards at once.

That huge city will be used to milk more cash for another spinoff or something.

From there they can sell all sorts of merchandise

 

Here a Naruto laptop from blah brand

 

Here an Uchiha cellphone

 

Here a Gaara car

 

Here a new game for PS4 DS PC or whatever platform you prefer about the adventure in tokyogakure hidden on top of a huge mountain

 

Here a Hyuuga heiress sewing machine for lonely waifu

 

Here a new photo editing app on your cellphone for abandoned waifu

 

so basically that. a whole range of merchandise for this anime.

 

will it sell well or not? probably there will still be fanatics who will dig it.

 

Its like a reserve move that they will pull out of their asses once they run dry of ideas to gain more money.

I don't have anyproblem if a series get milk, as long as the series is good.
Sadly naruto is not like that.

I'm no fan of getting milked when things are said and done, but I give them a break when they are left good note. Naruto is not one of them.

That's the worst thing you can do is drop your fic work just because Kishimoto screwed up his. Too bad that the author's chosen to go that route. 

 

Personally, I have no use for much of anything after the Pain arc. It's scattered, with confused motivations and end goals, where even the final villain(s) ended up a muddled mess. There are a few moments that are usable in some fic stories (Sakura's confession, Sasuke's attack on Danzo and Karin), but for the most part it's a mess.

 

Pre-Pain, the Akatsuki, the goal of getting the jinchurikis, Naruto and Sakura's relationship, Sasuke out of the village with an unknown motivation — all of that really holds together. 

 

As a writer, if it weren't for the per-Pain story, if we only had post-Pain and the war arc, I wouldn't be writing fics for Naruto. I probably wouldn't even be interested in it.

Yeah, and one of the reasons, I think, is that Part 1 was much more simple and straightforward, but enough to get the messages across. When Part 2 tried to make things "deep" and "complex" and crap with various things, that's when it quickly went downhill and culminating in completely contradicting the very lessons taught in Part 1.

 

 

Anyway, I read a few reviews to the statement and one left me thinking. The reviewer commented about how everything in Gaiden (and really, the war arc) revolves around the Sharingan and whatever weird mythology or history Kishi wants to create thanks to stupid crap the Uchiha can do. The reviewer references the good old days when the manga was about cherishing friendship, struggling to persevere when the odds were stacked against you, and trying to find good in an evil and violent world.

And isn't that the truth? I sometimes wonder what happened to cause such a drastic shift in the tone of Naruto. It's really kinda sad. I have such affection for Part I.

It is true.

Even after the Rinnegan was introduced with Nagato, and the talk about its legendary power, being the most powerful doujutsu, and so on, it was the Sharingan (and the Uchiha Clan) that just kept getting more and more powers and "development" while we got pretty much nothing about the Rinnegan or Hagaromo and whatnot until the very end really.

All Obito did with the one Rinnegan he took from Nagato's corpse was a poor man's Six Path's, but otherwise didn't do anything new or original with it. If anything, he had LESS than what Nagato showed given all the Edo Tensei Jinchuriki seemed to have was the "shared sight" between them, not even any of the individual Rinnegan moves Nagato demonstrated with his Six Paths.

Even when Madara was using it, aside from the meteor summoning, all he showed was a "perfected"/"stabilized" Susano'o, a move that is, in general, far more associated with the (Eternal) Mangekyo Sharingan, but otherwise, nothing new or original to show more of what the Rinnegan was truly capable of given they were his eyes originally and not Nagato's, and given the infinite chakra of Edo Tensei at the time, you'd think, like Kaguya, he would be pulling more powerful and unique moves aside from the ones we saw Nagato use via the Six Paths. Again, it felt more like we had overall less with Madara's use than we did with Nagato.

And the same goes for Sasuke.

Of course, all of that was just thrown away in The Last, much like everything else, all for the asspulled "Tenseigan":.

[unhskikrforever]

Me too! Yesterday, I found an unfinished doujinshi made by her and now I really want to know how it ends...  Here it is (you probably read it already at some point, but somehow I missed this one): http://shounen-sideb...e-ladygt-couple

Oh, thanks! But I've read that before. I used to follow her on DA.

And yes, she's also making a NaLu doujinshi so that's a treat. I still hope she finishes all her NS dounjinshis though.

[Catra]

lol tenseigan XD

[TouKen4Life3g]

Tenseigan. Yeah, that's when you know he doesn't care anymore.

[LuckyChi7]

He's just running out of ideas at this point honestly, J Bailey and I both talked about this the other day and agreed that Boruto The Movie is going to be the last Naruto related thing we'll keep tabs on after that we're moving onto other and better things because honestly Boruto should be where the series honestly. Sadly I doubt that's going to be case considering that Naruto makes a kitten ton of cash. 

 

 

I'm still disgusted at Kishi, he doesn't even deserve the title story writer or author to be exact. 

[TouKen4Life3g]

Just get a partner for the next work. Don't do alone. He's not capable of that.

You're preaching to the choir, Chi, especially when the characters have become shades of their former selves, and the kids aren't very impressive. Only one I like is Sarada, and Kishi won't do the one kittening thing that would be a great character arc for her; meeting her biological mom, Karin, and learning about her, and all of that. X_X

[Illnevergiveup3]

lol, what the hell is Tenseigan?

[LuckyChi7]

lol, what the hell is Tenseigan?

 

 

similar to how the rinnegan was the final form of the sharingan, the tenseigan is the final form of Byakugan.

lol wtf? Is he stealing names now?

[Bryon_Konoha_Ninja]

lol wtf? Is he stealing names now?

 

He's got no creative juices left, considering I bet also that Studio Pierrot came up with the Tenseigan just to make Toneri a "cool" villain when he is lame. All of the later villains in Naruto are very lame. =/
