Remember the original Naruto. Don't get me wrong I like Shippuden as much as the next guy but holy god did Naruto became OP as fuck. In the beginning, it was all about hard work and it took him a few episodes to master the rasengan and all. Every time they face a tough opponent they would have a hard time and used a lot of strategy to try to overcome it. It was either uncommon and strange to find an enemy that had powerful jutsu techniques. And now we have kyuubi and susanoo everywhere. Even adult shenobi would have a rough time so despite them being kids in groups, they still wouldn't have had an easier time if the original naruto kids were adults. A lot of this may sound nostolgic (and in truth, it kinda is) you have to recognize the fact that they've been OP'd a lot. I still liked shippuden, but it was just something I've noticed while re-watching Naruto on a boat crossing the seas to learn how to harness his powers inside. (tons of filler episodes too)
Remember. I'm not bashing on shippuden, I just want to talk about the shift that the series tooked.I hope I didn't aggro anyone
nardo stronk
least he's not the only one, endgame kakashi could have killed literally anything in part 1 just by staring at it

Kakashi was cool but then he became so fucking useless later as the series progressed.

It appears "the next guy" doesn't like shippuden OP. What does that say about you? Hmm.

I hate how the art lost its charm and style as the series moved into Shippuden.
its true OP
the series began to shift themes and plot as it progressed. Went from a strategic delight to randumb DB throwing energy balls.
>Until I become Hokage, I don't care what happens, I am not gonna die!
Fucking miss those days so much
>mfw Lee takes off the weights
>mfw Lee opens the gates
Fuck, it's so unfair that he had to fight Gaara. He would have mopped the floor with basically any other genin.
