Agreed but not because they're best bros, but because they actually have issues and don't always treat each other well, even if they click well. Realistic portrayals of friendship are good too.

Noone in their right mind would want Mitsuhashi as a friend just for the 1% of the time when he's a bro. He spends the majority of his time being an asshole and making Itou's life hard.

They're god tier characters but not exactly a paragon of friendship.

It was portrayed poorly. As adults, Naruto and Sasuke are convincingly friends, though throughout Shippuden it's an informed trait. Sasuke spent far more time trying to kill Naruto than they ever spent within their begrudged alliance on Team Kakashi, so Kishi introduced a retcon later on about Naruto wanting to be friends with Sasuke pre-Genin.

What actually happens, is that most of the cast is on a more friendly basis with Naruto than Naruto's supposed best friend is.
