#988997 The Great Naruto Discussion Thread

Posted by Nostradamus on 05 March 2023 - 05:29 PM

Further spitting on the message of the "fighting against destiny" message Naruto told Neji his views on "you are defined by what you're born with." He just accepts it and no saying he'll fight with his own power or anything, even though technically he never did even during  the fight with Neji looking back on it.

Hypocrisy at its best.

He did fight against Neji using his own power, and he lost. Then he asked the Kyuubi for some power and then he won.

Reminds me of the last fight between Naruto and Sasuke, where Sasuke declares that he will defeat Naruto using his own power, then immediately in the next panel Sasuke gets power from all the tailed beasts.

 

"I will beat you alone......using someone else's power, but I beat you and that's all that matters, forget what I said before" - Naruto series 1999-2014.

Top Comment: "So basically you took Ninja Storm Legacy, put it into one game and added Indra and Ashura as 2 new characters and call it a new game."


The Last destroyed everything about Naruto to make sure Hinata was not a silver medal.

Also it has a decent amount of dislikes:

Granted it's not really that accurate because YT removed the dislikes from the public so in order to get them you have to use an addon to the browser. Which counts the amount of dislikes from all that had the plugin and clicked the dislike button. So the number could be higher.

 

And as for The Last, she will always be the second option. To anyone who bothered following the story and getting their NH blinders off they know very well that Hinata will always be second.

Actually even calling her second is not correct since Naruto never showed any interest in her. No matter how hard they tried with their retcons they can't escape that fact.

Oh, Masashi will definitely come running whenever money involve. So if anyone convince him to redo the series that will potentially make more money, he will jump ship. The only suggestion he needed is to get better editors and assistants that don't put in their two cents.

 

With Studio Pierrot however, that might be a different story unless they pull many workers that was working on the franchise either fired or moved them to a different project. I see this happened all the time.

Oh yeah he'll come back if they give him enough money. However that's not what I meant. I was saying who knows when they'll redo it, and by then maybe he won't be alive anymore. Time passes after all.

Like I said I have no doubt that they will reboot it, redo it, restart it whatever term fits best one day. However I don't know when.

 

The smart move the way I see it is to end Boruto in whatever way doesn't really matter, leave it for some years in order for people to not have as strong feelings towards it as they do now, to forgot a little bit about it. Then announce a movie. I say a movie because they need something big and also small enough to get people hyped for it. Coming out with a manga or anime continuation won't have the same effect. Plus I've always believed that the best way is to redo the Naruto vs Sasuke fight. Why that point? Well because no one will ever reboot the whole series or start somewhere at the halfway point. That's just too much to erase. But mainly because having a fight especially a good animated one on the big screen with those two will be the big thing that they need.

I agree that cancelling this, leave it to rest and then make a proper reboot would be the only option but again, with the very same people that kittened up the end of Naruto and now even worst Boruto, not sure how a reboot would save this mess.

If it's the same people then yeah it's going to be bad. These people clearly are stuck in insanity which is to do the same thing over and over expecting a different outcome.

They probably don't even realize what they did wrong and why people don't like what they put out. These people have their own internal polls, data, and go by their own bias.

 

I've always said that a remake of what is more workable is the ending will be a thing eventually. Simply because of the "Naruto" name. Whether we like it or not the name itself has power behind it. It's like Star Wars, or Batman, or Superman, Harry Potter, etc. no matter how dead those are now ( some more than others) they still have weight behind the name.

Look at Disney with Star Wars they ruined it. They made someone like me a fanboy hate Star Wars, but if they put out something good (which right now will not happen or in the near future) will bring me back and will bring back a lot of people. Does that mean I forgive them or forgot the past? No. And the same thing Naruto. What is done is done and nothing can change that. Nothing can change the fact that they betrayed the majority of the fanbase by appealing to a very small but very loud part of the fanbase which doesn't even support them financially and only cared about getting their way.

 

I doubt Kishi or SP will ever admit they did something wrong, they will just continue will nothing happened. At best we might get a comment like "what we did back then was good for the times, but now we're excited about the new material" when they will announce a remake.

I'm convinced one day they will redo it, when? I don't know. Maybe Kishi won't even be around for it. Or even us.

This week episode suffered a lot of hate and become a international meme:

The damage was huge in Pierrot:

I don't think this single Naruto Monster Image is enough for Boruto Cancellation.  But it's the beggining of the end for the anime and manga.

:lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

 

I can't stop laughing. What have they've done? I thought some of the animations were bad, but this, this is on a different level all together.

At this point they should just admit defeat and leave it on a shelf for a while so people forgot about this and after a while reboot it.

It can not be saved otherwise.

Happy New Year everyone.

Posted by Nostradamus on 24 December 2022 - 07:12 AM

Well it's that time of the year. The end of the year. They've started to come and go faster and faster with each new year.

 

This year was from what I've seen was a pretty difficult one. Some have experienced things I wish no one would have to, but this is life with all its sorrow and joy. It doesn't make it go away, it just is.

I want to thank you all again for being here. For letting me be part of this group of amazing people. For helping not just me, but others as well when it was needed.

 

I hope and pray for a much better year to come for all.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all.

Posted by Nostradamus on 07 October 2022 - 11:34 AM

Wow they skipped the Neji Vs Hinata fight during the chunin exam, as well as the suicidal charge against Pein, also her speech over Neji's body...holy crap they actually avoided putting Hinata in the entire celebration video. Surprisingly, they kept a lot of Sakura's iconic scenes in it as well.

I was surprised they did that. Especially knowing this is coming from the studio that worships her.

This is a milestone and that's all they could do?!

#987585 The Great Naruto Discussion Thread

Posted by Nostradamus on 01 August 2022 - 09:29 PM

All the "special" Uchiha Jutsu with the Sharingan are if you ask me, Nate! And I mostly refer to Izanagi, Izanami, and Kotoamatsukami because of how stupid busted they are, even if the eye loses all sight.

The Uchiha's eyes are the swiss army knife of eyes, they have everything and can do everything.

Speaking of their eyes, can someone explain to me how does transferring ones Mangekyo eyes into another give you Eternal Mangekyo.

I mean my understanding of how it's suppose to work is that once you gain the Mangekyo you start losing your sight, the more you use its powers the quicker you lose your sight. And in order to regain your vision and more powers even, you have take the eyes of another Mangekyo sharingan user. That's what I remember.

 

Now maybe I'm the only one that thought about this, but how does transferring the eyes of someone who's losing their vision gets you back your vision? My understanding is that in order to get the Eternal, you need the eyes of someone who's got the Mangekyo, so someone who's losing or lost their sight. How does getting rid of your bad eyes and getting another's bad eyes gets you good vision?

 

I mean I know the whole transferring eyes thing was mainly so Itachi can scare Sasuke, at least in that point, but eventually it became the rule of how it works.

Just want to give some clarifications. In case people didn't figure it out, I was talking about the covid shots. I'm not here to force you to take it or not to take it. Nor to convince anyone to do as I say. It is your choice and that's how it should be. A choice that you make based on all the information that you're willing to read/listen to. I'm not going to treat anyone differently based on their choice.

I can only tell you to take into consideration my advice which is not to take it. What you chose to do is on you.

 

The next part is why I decide to open up about ending it. The reason is because I know the feeling and thoughts of thinking you're alone.

That people don't understand what you're going through in that moment. But remember that they do. Everyone has problems. They're not dealing with the exact 100% problem as you, but they do have their own.

Remember you're not alone. And I would say don't be afraid to open up. It does help. Even to a complete stranger on the other side of the planet. In fact I think that's way easier.

 

Now enough of that since this isn't the place for it, I will return to post about Naruto. I did see some posts here that made me want to add some things. So don't worry, I'm done with being offtopic.




#987484 The Great Naruto Discussion Thread

Posted by Nostradamus on 14 July 2022 - 03:24 PM

Since we're on the more serious discussion, this year has been rough for me. While I haven't dealt with loss like some of you, I'm truly sorry for anyone who went through that pain, I did however go through my own stuff. I opened up a bit, but wasn't to clear and not specific. When I said I didn't want to continue anymore, I meant it literally. I just wanted to end it. And the reason is because I went through a operation for one of my eyes and it had problems that even now are not solved. And for months I thought I lost my vision, went into depression, lost a lot of hair, also got a few white hairs, and I just wanted to end it all. And when I got some good news, then the good news were followed immediately by bad news. That's why I haven't been posting in these past months.

 

I once created a thread here, but didn't post it. I couldn't even get my words out and one thing I don't like is being a burden on anyone.

Which is why I thought ending it would be better than basically forcing someone to take care of me.

Even now as I'm writing this I don't really know how and what to say and in what order.

 

This next part is something that might get some of you mad because it goes against the current narrative. But please don't take anymore shots, if you took one or more then stop, if you haven't take any of them then don't take them. They're just not good.

I give you links and links with data, research about them if you want. Ultimately I'm not here to dictate to any of you what you should or shouldn't do, I can only say please don't take them anymore.

I've seen it with my own eyes what damage they can do. Last year when my mother took hers, that night I thought she was going to die in front of me. Now my grandmother had a stroke because of it. I say because of it because that's what the doctors at the hospital said.

 

I know very well just me saying what I said, might put me in different light to some of you. Then so be it. I just don't want anyone to suffer.

The legend has returned.

Legend. lol

 

It's been a rough time these pasts months, that continue part wasn't an exaggeration. There were days where I just ... yeah.

And now it got worse right when things looked like they were getting better.

My grandmother had I think in English is a stroke and now my mother and I are taking care of her. And today I don't know if it's because of the medication or what, but I thought we were going to lose her.

Right now I'm crying cause I can for now. I had to stay strong and assure my mother that she's going to be fine.

My grandmother recovered from that moment, she's ok now. I pray she will recover fully and be able to walk on her own.

Guess who's back. Back again. None of you care. :D

I'm back. Partially anyway. With a new light.

Ok let's get serious. The last months well they weren't too well for me. So much so that well let's just say I didn't want to continue and you get what I mean.

I wanted to start a thread here, wrote a bit, but just couldn't find the right words and it was difficult. And even now I'm not really in the right mood or health.

I'll try to catch up to what I missed, maybe even add something, I don't know.

Anyway I don't know what to say, I'm not my usual self for now. So yeah.




#986362 The NEW NaruSaku Debate Thread

Posted by Nostradamus on 10 February 2022 - 05:46 PM

That's what happened in Naruto. And when you apply the same scenario to any other story or movie, it becomes crystal clear that the creator fell out of love with his hero and sold out his original story. 

Sometimes I wonder is that what really happened where he just fell out of love with his hero, or was he never that much interested in his hero to begin with?

I don't know, but when I think back to early Naruto, I feel like in certain moments it's more about someone else than him. Or about something else. Maybe I'm remembering it wrong, but right now I recall more focus and more detailed put into other characters, their backstory, their desires, their growth. And I can't say it turned into Sasuke's story. More like the Uchiha story. I feel like both Naruto and Sasuke were just spectators and not participants to the Uchiha storyline. They just happen to be the end of it. More like conduits.

Sorry, I'm not finding my words right now, but I hope you at least get a little bit of what I'm trying to say. Or maybe I'm just talking nonsense, could be. :D

When I can I'll try to explain it more in detail what I mean. Now I have other things on my mind.
