Is Naruto the best deconstruction of the shonen genre?

>>155881813
Only the pain arc of the Manga

No, that's Bleach.
>power of friendship does fuck all
>the villain had more noble goals, both times
>MC is psychotic and has multiple personalities
>the "good guys" are actually evil assholes

Wasn't that Hunter x Hunter?

>>155881813
Nigger it created the generic shonen genre

>>155881864
that was actually pretty good.

>>155881813
what is it deconstructing?

>>155885283
a good setting

>>155885389
why do you think the setting is good, and how does said deconstruction differ from other anime/manga?

>>155885283
its own plot/message

>>155885710
>why do you think the setting is good

Because 15 years ago semi-modern ninja village cold war was a neat concept.


>and how does said deconstruction differ from other anime/manga?
I was memeing, I don't actually have an opinion about deconstruction and Naruto I just wanted to make a funny about it being shit and destroying itself.

>>155881813
How many times does he repeat that they're both similar? Holy shit what terrible writing

>>155886137
>dude why does this guy who's trying to show how similar they are keep pointing out how they're similar????

>>155885898
Naruto peaked at rain village, from any standpoint

One of the most Kino fights in anime. No fight has ever surpassed it in terms of QUALITY or style

>>155886212
Every single arc villain is "similar" to Naruto.

>>155886405
No they aren't

Then the Pain arc was completely ruined when every character who died was resurrected.

>They don't know what QUALITY means
>they are from /v/
>they just use buzzwords
>they don't know animation
>they are 19

it cheapened the weight of Naruto sparing Nagato because it had no real consequence but I'd say he deserved that one

it wouldn't have disturbed me had the series ended there

more like destruction am i right

>>155882720
Bleach also deconstructed what it meant to be a good piece of writing with actual plot and character development. Mainly because it had neither.

>>155885283
No one on /a/ knows what deconstructions means, and they misused it since 2011. It's a buzzword nowadays don't take seriously anyone who uses that word.

Actually The Promised Neverland is what the real "Shounen deconstruction" really is.

>>155886555
>if there's motion, it's good animation!
>doesn't matter how tone-destroyingly goofy it is!

>>155881813
more like a shonen with shoehorned shoujo elements.

>>155886938
You need to go back.

>what is fist of the north star

>what is inuyasha
>what is yu yu hakusho
