So who took care of him up until he was able to live on his own?

Did the village taxes go towards taking care of him?

Did he start having to pay bills on his home even when he was a child? Utilities? Food? Dental?
>>
Pretty sure the village would wanna take good care of the Fourth Hokage's
>>
>>150596301
Pretty sure the third hokage paid for his living expenses
>>
>>150596301
I wondered this too. Maybe an orphanage? It's never really stated but I know one thing.

Kakashi, Jiraya, the third hokage are all fucking scumbags for not raising him. Instead letting him live a life alone.
>>
>>150596481
And iruka too.
Especially considering his parents died trying to protect the village and sealed the kyuubi in him. You think they'd try to give him an ok life at least for the sake of not posting him off and unleashing the giant fox demon that nearly annihilated them all
>>
>>150596575
kishimoto basically asspulled years later, which doesnt' make up for that logic and his devious behavior and poor upbringing.
>>
>>150596367
Well when he was older and able to manage for himself, but we're talking about when he was a baby.
>>
>>150596481
>Kakashi
Why was a teenager supposed to take him in?
>>
He has a room and such, presumably he has some kind of trust fund setup paid by the village (read: The 3rd Hokage and probably others like Jiraiya) and prior to that was raised by an orphanage.
I mean it's canon that there are a decent number of orphans running around thanks to Shinobi world wars
>>
>>150596301
Fuck off narutards.
>>
To be perfectly fair. He had to be kept secret for being the 4th son, and incubating a fox demon. I'm pretty sure he was orphaned with a trust fund when he was old enough to take care of himself.
>>
>>150597012
>He had to be kept secret for being the 4th son
why?
>>
>>150596575
>And iruka too.

Iruka didn't know anything about Naruto's parents, he was a kid when it happened and he's like 21 when the series starts. He's a low level ninja too

Even then, Naruto knows Iruka since he was a little kid so it's not like he left him alone and we know it.
>>
>>150596301
Knowing who daddy was, 3rd would definitely support him. The bigger question is whatever happened to all the Uchiha district minus the house during Sasuke's youth & especially after Sasuke left. Did Sasuke leave his wife & daughter anything related to the rights to buildings he clearly doesn't give a shit about?

Nobody knew that except for Hiruzen, Kakashi and Sasuke's mom.

>>150597352
They could have been handled in side stories or whatever. The point is that Naruto's character arc was done - he had surpassed Jiraya and Kakashi and had gained the love and admiration of the village.

>>150597371
Just roll with it. The more questions you ask, the worse it gets.
>>
>>150597323
Literally nobody else knew the ninja equivalent of the President's wife was pregnant? They might've assumed the baby died when she did, but anyone looking at her corpse would be able to tell she gave birth and also I'm pretty sure the village would ask where the fucking got the baby to use for the vessel. More than few people had to have known.
>>150597333
The beginning really doesn't make sense. In one of the new episodes they even show toddler Naruto fishing for his own food in a river. They literally had no idea how to explain his survival from infancy to young age so they never bothered and just ignored it.
>>
>>150597416
Remember, the seal would be the weakest during childbirth, so they took extreme measures to try and make sure nobody knew she was even pregnant.

Hinata

Sakura is basically an unmarried single mom, which is extra hilarious because Sasuke's whole dream was to revive his clan and he accomplishes this by having a single child with her and then bailing. Not to mention Kishi said Naruto and Hinata's relationship was the only one not filled with drama or something.

It's really sad how much more enjoyable this was in its infancy rather than the rest of the series.

The gradual art change sucked. The power creep made a lot of the side characters worthless. The manga became its own thing and the OVA's/anime something else. Reading or watching just (one) of them made for a disjointed and confusing experience.

And of course, the legendary asspulls.

They were mostly worthless aside from their introductions.

The problem was to keep expecting anything from them after their character arcs were over.
>>
>>150596301
No one.
The third supposedly, but it's been outright stated and shown that he, as a damned 7-10 year old, had a fucking apartment on his own and had to struggle to make pocket change to get food.

Why Naruto didn't move in with Iruka and become his adopted son after the first few issues I'll never fucking know.
No seriously, why didn't he?
>>
>>150598312
Basically everything up to and including the first ninja exam spent a lot of time on world building and fleshing out a character roster. After le-ebin-sekrit power reveal it was less about what individual characters could do and more about who had the biggest super secret hidden OP power, rendering a lot of the world building stuff worthless.

It's one of the things I actually like about Hiatus x Hiatus. There's world building and a character roster, where not one single character is insanely powerful without having a good reasoned explanation why.
>>
>>150598197
I honestly think Kishi is just retarded. In that Sarada manga side-story it was debated whether Sakura was Sarada's mother and even Naruto wasn't 100% positive, which makes no goddamn sense because it implies:
>Nobody ever saw Sakura while she was pregnant
>None of her close friends were aware when she gave birth

Don't read too much into it.
>>
>>150598415
They said later that Sasuke and Sakura were traveling alone, then she got pregnant and gave birth.

I decided I want to actually re-read the series after dropping it a decade ago midway through.

What release group has the best scans? I have a thing for absurdly high quality/resolution scans.

Also, what prompted this is on a whim rewatcing some of the anime fights on youtube, and I was amazed by how well animated the intial disguised orochimaru vs sasuke/naruto/hinata fight was.

Is there a list of well animated anime episodes as well so i can watch those?

>>150599850
Yeah but Naruto was a fucking baby infant, he would've needed someone to consistently take care of him for at least the first 5 or 6 years of his life and they always skip that detail. It's safe to assume he would've lived in an orphanage but if that were true he would have at least SOME form of connection to other orphans or the people who raised him. His closest father figure is Iruka, which doesn't make sense because he couldn't have been the one who took care of him.

That -is- when he's a baby. Sarutobi and Danzo along with the two village elders were privy to their agreement with the Fourth to take care of Naruto. They also agreed to keep his identity a secret.

It's all just "government assistance," really. Remember, their village is basically a military barracks for the Land of Fire, so they can do hands-off appointments of living quarters for Naruto just like they did with Sasuke.

That's Kishi's shitty retcon excuse. He had the kyuubi which is what the Akatsuki was after anyways and Minato put the biggest target on Naruto's back.

Really no good reason to hide him being his son. He would at least have been treated decent by the villagers if nothing else.

his father was the hokage, so he got those welfarebux, but their only family was the hokage, his wife, and naruto, so they didn't take it too seriously which is why he only ate ramen every day and lived in a shitty $200 apartment
>>
At the end of the day there is no answer because for it to work in the slightest Naruto would have had to have someone around to change his diapers and look after him when he was a toddler.

But that would run against the pathetically forced loner characterization he needed. So he's tight lipped about it.

The main problem with Naruto is its main character is a fucking mess.

>>
Naruto wanted Boruto to call him Hokage while they were in his office, but do you think he has everyone call him that? I can imagine people who didn't know him before he ascended to the office using the title. But surely his friends and acquaintances from before use his name.

Making my son call me "Mr. President" sounds too weird, but I guess it makes sense since Boruto is a employee. Gotta make sure no nepotism is going on.

On the plus side I bet Ichiraku Ramen is raking it in, being the Hokage's preferred restaurant and all.

For literally once. Konoha has run on nepotism since its conception, good to see Naruto doing something right.

>>
>>150601469
I mean Hiruzen, Minato and Kakashi at least weren't descended to related by blood to a previous Hokage.

Minato started his own dynasty, so I guess you can discount him(by no choice of his own though). And if Konohamaru ever makes a run for office, then Hiruzen if off the list too.

I fear Kakashi will die a bachelor though, so no fear of nepotism there. Poor man needs to find some happiness in his life too.

Hell, Danzo probably eventually starting pushing for reasonable shit, like early training of some kind with Jiraiya or Kakashi, shit that Hiruzen would accept.

But since Danzo is...Danzo, Hiruzen probably kept thinking it was all some massive plot to make Naruto into a weapon, and vetoed everything.

>>
>>150601895
Hiruzen was a direct student of the 2nd much like Kakashi to Minato, so it's nepotism all the way.

But can you really argue? It's not a democracy and just the way a feudal warrior nation would be setup.

It always pissed me off that Kishi never explored the daimyo and the entire concept and functioning of nation's in the show. Konoha is the military industrial complex of the Land of Fire, but is it also the capital? Where does the daimyo live? Is there a capital? Why is the entire country just tiny villages and settlements apart from the hidden village which resembles a small town.

How did they develop modern technology and spread knowledge without large cities?
>>
>>150602011
>But can you really argue?
No, you are right. Who would you pick, really, between someone who's being trained for the job (or at least by a guy who has the job) or some random guy who's pretty cool too? It's a dictatorship, if the guy in charge says vote for his boi, you vote for dat boi.

We do get shots of other cities, I'm pretty sure there's a big one with rather tall buildings at some point. It's just probably less exciting to read about than magic assassin mercinaries.

Actually to become Hokage you need either the nomination of the previous Hokage, if they die or are otherwise incapacitated, the next Hokage is instead chosen by the daimyo pending approval by Konoha's jounin

How does this go against what I said? In all cases where a new Hokage is nominated he is the only one to receive a 'nomination'. Orochimaru wanted in but Hiruzen told him to suck it and he had to deal with it, no vote there. And of course if there's no current leader a new one can be elected, you can elect dictators.

After getting beaten up by Sakura by calling her ugly, he learned that women hate being called ugly. So when Team 7 and Team 10 went out to dinner, Sai called her beautiful (even though he apparently thought she was ugly), which made Ino happy and Sakura angry.
Later, Ino's Infinite Tsukuyomi dream had Sai and Sasuke fighting for her affections.

They kinda are, they're adapting the side story novels in the anime right now. They already beat Kaguya and Sasuke left on his journey, then they had a few episodes covering the childhoods of some characters.

Last episode started covering the Sasuke Shinden novel Book Of Sunrise, which takes place post The Last. This is the last side story novel afaik, so after this they can only go filler or end the show till the Boruto manga has covered enough past the movie to adapt. Or they could just do what they did wit Revival of F and cover the Boruto anime in an episodic format again.

Actually most of the time the villagers and his classmates just seemed to view him as the annoying class clown rather than a demon fox, they had no problem knocking him around so it's not like they were scared. Yet, the 3rd and Jiraiya still neglected him while knowing the truth.

His poor upbringing manifests itself as poor intelligence, but in all other areas involving chakra manipulation he's got to be in the top five most talented characters in the manga. If he was given a proper education, and actually received positive reinforcement for learning, he'd be a monster at age twelve.

That's what bothers me. That is absolutely not how it works.
>>
>>150604762
Yeah, but if you think about it more as a series of learned behaviors rather than actual low intelligence it works a bit better. As in he's learned to switch off when confronted with intellectual problems and so never really built the proper problem solving skills. I bet his low amount of socialization also made a difference to his apparent stupidity.

Kushina was kind of dumb I guess. Or at least of average intelligence. Minato was made out to be smart but constantly did dumb things

Sounds like Boruto but with more chakra. Except as a tradeoff he's somehow more hax by learning Rasengan in under a week, and accidentally doing something that took nardo weeks to accomplish with thousands of clones which amounts to years of experience. 90 Intelligence my ass.

How many Genin are there anyway? Given the incredibly low passing rates of Chunin Exams, odds are most never make it. 157 ninjas, 87 from Konoha, participated in Naruto's first Chunin exam, yet 21 people making it to the third round was considered TOO MUCH.
The Allied Shinobi Forces was composed of 80.000 Ninjas, lets assume that at least a fifth of them came from Konoha, so 16.000. How many of them were Genin?
>>
>>150609996

Kishi clearly had very little idea what he was doing as far as sane demographics were concerned.

> biggest village graduates somewhere between 9 and 30 genin in a semester

Only the unamed ones. Named faggots passing on their genes pretty much sums up Boruto.

>>150610637

>>
>>150610637
It doesn't even make sense to have promotions in a military system solely come from an exam held only twice a year. It's fucking stupid.
ESPECIALLY since most of the time the exam will be held in another village, why the fuck would any government let another decide which of your soldiers get a promotion? Wasn't the fact that the villages didn't trust each other and were at each other throats all the time a big deal? The Bloody Mist probably wasn't happy that all of their candidates were failed because one of the exams in Konoha was about friendship and not abandoning your nakama.

>>150611474
the whole ninja village system doesn't make sense anymore either.
When all of the biggest strongest villages are now best friends and no longer fighting each other, and you have two Ninja Jesus guys keeping the peace as well, why would you want to become a ninja? The only real enemies you'd ever face now would be the occasional bandit or missing nin, and friendly fights in exams.

supposedly it's after and she's already pregnant.

but what's weird is that there's supposed to be other stories adapted from the novels after this one ends and some of them are set before the last.

Naruto's technical skills sucked pre-timeskip, especially without kyuubi juice and armies of clones. Post he and Sakura were actually able to challenge Kakashi without needing things like that. I don't recall Naruto even using mass clones post timeskip until he was training his element.

It took him less than a month to learn 1 of the most difficult techniques ever. Pretty sure it wouldnt take 3 years to learn that basic shit
>>
>>150614087
>supposedly it's after and she's already pregnant.
That wouldn't really work timeline-wise. Boruto is around the same age as Sarada and all ther other kids, which means that everyone else needs to hook up and have kids immediately.
>>
>>150615104
Basics are hard to instill anon especially the later you start and Naruto's rasengan was a workaround that missed the advantage of the technique not needing any seals to use. Naruto sucked pre-timeskip and had to cover with kyuubi, clones and occasionally some clever tactics. Post he could face people like Orchimaru and not get insta-ganked.

said naruto obviously has natural talent because he picks up legendary/forbidden jutsus in no time flat, and that's demonstrated several times in the show. when you're an angry child acting out though, you don't have time to do things like read, pay attention in class, and focus on tests, so of course he seemed like a retard to everybody in class. How could he substitution jutsu if he ditched/slept through every class where it was covered? He's also emotionally unstable and constantly distracted by his inferiority complex, which explains why he'd lose out to anxiety when pressured, at least at the beginning of the series.

Sounds more like yuropean cucklodry to me where you can't even own guns. Also killing things because they're not perfect is an act of savagery, not justice. Want people to learn? Teach them. Justifying their death with "they'd never learn!" is not an excuse.
>>
>>150609748

The anime at least tried to make them 'friends' much earlier than the manga. Think there's some shots of it in the last movie (the hinata had a crush since they were 5 thing).

Series is full of retcons and 'you can talk to things and make them do 180s, even with decades of planning and alignment'.

The anime is making up shit that directly contradicts the very important plot point of "Naruto never had any friends when growing up until Iruka"

Contrary to your memes, most people how are stupid, or act shitty, are that way because of shitty upbringings, and not genetics. Genetics has of course somewhat to of with intelligence, but nowhere near as much as upbringing. Yes /pol/, most niggers are niggers because they're parents acted like niggers, not because they are inherently evil. I know it's easy to justify your hatred of them by claiming it's all nature and no nuture, but time has proven that people raised well, whether smart or stupid, will always be better people than those raised badly.

Byakugan just isn't that good, 360 degree vision and some chakra sensing effects isn't powerful enough to combat high level bullshit.

Kakashi neglected all of his students equally, he only gave a shit about Sasuke for a few months because he had a kage tier pedophile after his ass and because Sasuke was severely underleveled for an eventual fight against a mass murderer psycopath that got off on tasting his opponent's blood.

Naruto on the other hand was going to be fine since he can just shove his unlimited ninja juice at his opponent until they die so Kakashi sent him with a toddler instructor to teach him the basics that Iruka never bothered to explain to him.

Looking on nyaa the only torrents that have seeders are official viz rips/scans. Are there no better translations then that? Are viz's stuff unedited or is some of the blood and shit edited out? Is there a particular scanning group who made the best scans of Viz's volumes?

Looks like you can still be a dumb fuck due to your environment, plus being able to learn faster doesn't stop you from being dumb or knowing anything at all, especially if that person refuses to learn anything, and doesn't make use of their intelligence.

Take note that Naruto did learn things extremely quick when he put his mind to it(a bit too quick though).

Mangastream has good quality, I don't know that they're better than Viz though. Mangapanda is just compressed garbage, their only use was that they were speedscans and the first to release when the series was ongoing, they no longer serve a purpose anymore.
>>
>>150632190
Well, I went ahead and started to download the largest torrent on nyaa for the manga that I could find and the pages are like 3000x2000, so that's good enough for me.

It's viz though, which again has me asking if the viz releases have any censorship. I remember dragon ball back in the day had minor changes in the viz volume with some language being toned down and trunks giving the androids the finger being edited out

Context is key here. It's not that the child is being born that's being classified. It's WHERE she is while the child is being born as that's the most opportune time to yoink the Kyuubi away or just plain fuck with things.

His chakra manipulation was jacked by the seal in the first place. He's mostly as good as he is at the chakra manipulation part because everything was on a higher difficulty mode for him before.
His main problem was he didn't know he had a higher base difficulty rating than everyone else so his failures at things which were easy for everyone else just made him feel stupid which means the general lashing out behavior noted by >>150615748 would get in the way before any real progress.
It probably helped with him being so ridiculous later since proper training would result in him being a jackass like Sasuke that only wins his fights due to random powerups and spends the rest of the time being curbstomped by the people in the series with REAL power.

To keep the byakugan from propagating into enemy hands because it was just that good; that's what the Cloud kidnapping Hinata was entirely about. The byakugan wasn't a mid-tier dojutsu. The byakugan was a high level bloodline limit that got done in by Kishi's retcons via power level wank. So Neji is hailed as an unstoppable genius in Part I, with Hashirama being done in by a simple ambush, while in Part II all high level shinobi are rearranging continents.

Probably the same reason why Sharingans and byakugan's can't be copied? Eye-jutsus are just more obvious about why they're uncopyable.
>>150602617
That one actually makes sense when you think about it. They'll need the basic techniques in general for fighting but everyone has kekkei gekai or family specific jutsu because there used to be an assload of uchiha running around stealing everyone's techniques.
Everyone at the top having uncopyable techniques is because generations of families had to hone ways to not have their tricks get fucked over or stolen by some random teenager and his/her emo eye.
>>
>>150627961
Always figured that they just encrypted it somehow.

>>150602617
I like that aspect, though. The series wasn't originally so focused on the sharingan, but purportedly about ninjas. Ninjas have secret techniques. The most I would ask it that there be a few clan-less "normal shinobi" similar to Iruka amongst the group of clan heirs with special snowflake powers.

It's also a really obvious way to tone down the sharingan, but Kishi became so obsessed with it that he found a way to unbalance things anyways. The Uchiha as blue mages wouldn't have been that bad; it's what it became that ruined it.
>>
>>150633751

Sure, but the way I see it is the stats at least tell us what the characters are supposed to specialize in, ie: Shikadai is smart, Inojin is "perceptive", Chocho is stronk, Mitsuki is a people person I guess? Bolt is dexterous (which might mean speed or agility?) and Sarada is just generally good at everything.

There may of been some who knew the truth of his birth that looked after him like the 3rd but a bigger question is why would they allow such crucial info like him carrying a fox godzillia be casually known among the villagers or an even better question why treat the only living being who's keeping death back just by being alive like crap.
>>
>>150597154
This last carrier of the fox got kidnapped by Cloud ninja I'm sure letting word of such a person existing in your village without being properly monitored is a terrible idea worse seeing as the Clouds own host learned to control his if an enemy nation got the fox and was able to get somebody just as capable as Bee to be its host the Leaf would have been royally fucked.

Kakashi speculated it was but we know he has absolutely no fucking idea if that's true or not. And it's not, Naruto just didn't pay attention in school, that's why his control was bad.

I can't believe one of the special swords of the seven swordsman was just a blade with paperbombs, I mean really? One of them was heavy like a club but could take off chunks of flesh and absorb chakra, another was sleek and could regenerate from blood contact, but the rest were pretty lame.
