It's not as popular as it used to be.
Kakashi
Naruto and co. are ass
It had a good start.
Naruto>Bleach>One Piece
>>149144458
Sometimes the animation is alright.
>>149144458
the start of the series was really good, it also got good games

It was really really good up until the ending of the chuunin exam.
>>149144580

This + good vidya I guess
>>149144758
Started off as really well integrated with the lore, ended up referencing the whole Hindu mythology thing when there were no space to develop it well so there's just this Hindu lump over a generally well-though out lore of Japanese mythos
>>149144530
This.
>>149144458
I like MC's red dog.
>>149144458
It's a decent action/adventure series for young adults with a unique mythology and fight choreography. To be honest I couldn't really say this is a bad series, I feel like the real reason it gets so much hate is because of the fanbase, people feeling it didn't live up to the hype and critics wanting to be a snarky contrarian.
>>149144580
Honestly A few years ago I would have agreed with you if it wasn't for how poorly handled Bleach's editing was. It's kind of obvious that both Kishimoto and Kubo became haded by the stress of their work and lost their passion of making manga.
Not shit.
>>149144906
People didn't like it for a reason, anon. Pain's mass-revival killed the tension and the battle got really ridiculous after that.
>>149144458
It ended
>>149144458
MC won the sasuke bowl
>>149144458
It's over.
i liked the protagonist naruto.
>>149144458
The fights were cool
The ops were catchy as hell
Fave is pic related
why do people call naruto's mythology original and interesting even though it's just indian and japanese mythology put together?
>>149144758
Alien waifu from space came to earth to eat the chakra fruit, which was the only source of chakra at that time on earth, then she got two sons who were the first humans with chakra. One of them was the Rikudo Sennin, the other one the ancestor of the Hyuga clan. Alien waifu became evil and her sons stopped her, sealing her into a huge chunk of rocks, which became the moon.
Rikudo Sennin had two sons of his own and he fucked up so the sons hated each other. The Senju und Uzumaki clan came from the good son, the Uchiha clan from the evil son. The incarnation of the two sons were fighting each other for over 1000 years, then they reincarnated in Naruto and Sasuke, who finally ended the conflict.
But because Kishimoto couldn't make them two fug because that would be gay, he made it so that Naruto got a son and Sasuke a daughter.
So finally, the two brothers could fuck each other. The end.

Using mythology certainly isn't original but combining elements of different mythologies together is. And people find mythology in general interesting, and if you don't, fine. But stop tilting at windmills brotha.
Akatsuki
Madara
The music
Tsunade/Mei/MILF rabbit
kishimoto's only stroke of genius was modernizing and universalizing the myth of the ninja
more than that he made asian mythology immediately accessible and digestible to weeaboos, sort of like a McDonald's version of it, which explains the worldwide mainstream success of the series
the story itself is subpar fanfiction.net tier hogwash but it doesn't matter because its background stimulates the imagination of people and that's what really matters

>say something good about this series
Doesn't portray a disabled (blind) character negatively
>>149149753
Oh yeah so original.
>>149148637

I honestly found it pretty funny when reading 666 Satan because it's clear the influences the Kishimoto brothers have. I mean the "protagonist has a demon inside" doesn't really come from it I think, it's just a standard shonen trope since forever.
But for example Amaterasu? Seishi did it first. And a lot of other things or topics they have are similar
Still the series are really different, but still it's fairly entertaining to see how the characters have similar abilities sometimes that were inspired on myths.
Threadly reminder that:
>Danzo did nothing wrong
>Tobirama did nothing wrong
>Obito was actually a dick and deserved no redemption nor his implied ninja heaven with his waifu
>Orochimaru didn't deserve to get away with anything and should have been killed or imprisoned
>Sasuke should have died against Deidara, but asspulled his way out

Shikamaru was the best character but criminally underused, the chunin exam was cool, puppeteer abilities were a cool ,novel idea best girl won.
And I have too liitle of her art. Post best girl.
>>149144458
1. The SoL mentor moments (Asuma and Shikamaru, Naruto popsicle jiraiya tears moment, etc)
2. Raw no frills Taijitsu fights are usually 7 to 10/10
3. Soundtrack
4. Got spammed a lot, but in the manga Kishi's point perspective designs were pretty good
5. Previous and OG generation had some badasses (Tobirama, all previous Raikage, etc)
6. Ended up a shitty clusterfuck, but in essence the tailed beasts are a cool idea
7. Orochimaru's Oh You! moments
8. The manga had a fair balance of detailed scenery and landscapes
9. The internet reaction to Karin almost being the mom
10. Naruto kept the headband the whole time
>>149144458

It ended before One Piece, and might end up being objectively a little better than One Piece drags One Piece on for another 10 years at the current decline in quality.
>>149162865
