Due to Naruto as a manga being released weekly Kishimoto may of not had that much time to formulate all the finer details of how the story went and had to change course or alter plans as he went along. For example, apparently one of the main things Kishimoto had in mind was to make sure Naruto and Sasuke had a final battle at the end, editors wanted Orochimaru to disrupt the Chunin Exam and editors also wanted a five year story at minimum.
It was the only thing he really had planned long-term, aside from Tobi being Obito. Honestly it's a narrow-minded mistake, since it's that mindset that led to so much of the obnoxious writing for and around Sasuke post-timeskip.
At least he's not one of those dumbasses who think the Leaf Village was faking their hatred of Naruto for 15 years.Man God said:
Never forget, Ramen guy was the first person to treat Naruto like a human being. Honestly I wish we got a spinoff from his POV as opposed to Boruto. And fuck it, I'll say it. Naruto should've married his daughter instead of Hinata.
It's also a little jarring that we're supposed to buy that the guy who gets taken out by Sakura is also capable of taking out these tailed beasts. It makes either the Akatsuki inconsistently strong or the Tailed Beasts pathetic. I guess the War Arc gets it right when Tobi uses them and they're nothing but a joke and get trounced by Kurama.
They represented the Akatsuki as monsters in their own right originally, but saying Sasori was suicidal and wanted to be killed is weak logic. It’d make sense more if they had a few monsters, but the rest were like Kakashi or Zabuza where they shine under certain circumstances while being highly adaptable.
Confirmed. Boruto has no dick. Sarada and Mitsuki yaoi fan artists BTFOED.
Well he has to give the Rule 34'ers a canon on-scale model to use. God I hate him.
I prefer when my MCs marry actual characters instead of town NPCs.
Counterpoint: Hinata is not a character. She's a cardboard cut-out that occasionally shows up in Shippuden.
That's a symptom of Kishimoto's total incompetence with handling his characters post-timeskip.
i suspect nothing less from a bleach fan
He tried to include them but did nothing with them. I mean, Team Guy shows up in The Kazekage Rescue for no real reason than just to be there. Same thing with Team 8 during the hunt for Itachi. Dear god was that such a damn waste. Nothing happened in that arc on Naruto's side. Just more crying over Sasuke. Good lord.
It's actually Ikemoto's handling of characters period. My ire for Hinata really comes in Boruto. At least in Shippuden Hinata isn't in scenes. In the Boruto manga, Hinata is in plenty of scenes and just doesn't say or do anything. She's a literal background. It's infuriating.
Why are you making decisions that will only detriment your time and mental health? Nobody in their right mind should be reading b0rf, even the word-of-mouth that comes down the grapevine is harmful to a person's sanity. Like, apparently the antagonist in every arc is some kind of moon ninja, one of them merges with Bort to make him some pseudo-Jinchuriki with a brand-new bullshit eyehax because the creators refuse to give him the Byakugan, Kurama talks about nuclear fusion and then dies, and then another moon ninja rewrites reality so Naruto dies and Sasuke hooks himself up to the Shinju just like Madara, and Sarada is useless, dresses like rapebait and gets her Mangekyo by crying really hard.
You forgot how Naruto picks up an orphan adopted son named Kawaki and he's a little shit and treats everyone like dirt in his new home. And then he's in lesbians with Naruto.
"For no real reason than just to be there"
