Is there a character that could even possibly EVEN TOUCH Madara Uchiha? Let alone defeat him. And I'm not talking about Edo Tensei Uchiha Madara. I'm not talking about Gedou Rinne Tensei Uchiha Madara either. Hell, I'm not even talking about Juubi Jinchuuriki Gedou Rinne Tensei Uchiha Madara with the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan and Rinnegan doujutsus (with the rikodou abilities and being capable of both Amateratsu and Tsukuyomi genjutsu), equipped with his Gunbai, a perfect Susano'o, control of the juubi and Gedou Mazou, with Hashirama Senju's DNA implanted in him so he has mokuton kekkei genkai and can perform yin yang release ninjutsu while being an expert in kenjutsu and taijutsu. I’m also not talking about Kono Yo no Kyūseishu Futarime no Rikudō Juubi Jinchuuriki Gedou Rinne Tensei Uchiha Madara with the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan (which is capable of Enton Amaterasu, Izanagi, Izanami and the Tsyukuyomi Genjutsu), his two original Rinnegan (which grant him Chikushōdō, Shuradō, Tendō, Ningendō, Jigokudō, Gakidō, Gedō, Banshō Ten’in, Chibaku Tensei, Shinra Tensei, Tengai Shinsei and Banbutsu Sōzō) and a third Tomoe Rinnegan on his forehead, capable of using Katon, Fūton, Raiton, Doton, Suiton, Mokuton, Ranton, Inton, Yōton and even Onmyōton Jutsu, equipped with his Gunbai(capable of using Uchihagaeshi) and a Shakujō because he is a master in kenjutsu and taijutsu, a perfect Susano’o (that can use Yasaka no Magatama ), control of both the Juubi and the Gedou Mazou, with Hashirama Senju’s DNA and face implanted on his chest, his four Rinbo Hengoku Clones guarding him and nine Gudōdama floating behind him AFTER he absorbed Senjutsu from the First Hokage, entered Rikudō Senjutsu Mode, cast Mugen Tsukuyomi on everybody and used Shin: Jukai Kōtan so he can use their Chakra while they are under Genjutsu.

a separate entity from the rest of civilization, with their own interest different than the ones of anyone else, capable of acting as a collective, i wonder if we have a word for that
>>528
i mean you can see peasents all the time in the filler, and the basis for the ninja technically is that they get paid to do shit, like magical mercenaries, impling there is some source of wealth in this world, and they are all divided in microstates each lead by feudal lord, with all the power lying in a military ruler.

Can you imagine how awesome would be a naruto meji restoration? like imagine this. after a war of unification all the lands are one, lead by a mega kage, and an emperor, until it is discovered that they are not the only continent, and that there is other places that also use ninjutsu, with a combination of technology, so a restoration of the power of the emperor happens and he installs capitalism, and the whole show is about how capitalism has taken away the halo of sanctity of ninjas and just cucks them into being servants with no honor, or mercy, reduces them to being mere castrated remanants of humans, and how their essentially magic powers are not turned to mantain honor, or help humanity or anything, but are turn to the service of capital

Honestly Boruto only just got interesting and even then it nerfs Naruto so badly that its beyond idiotic.
Like EOS Naruto was a literal demi-god and who was dead-set on worldpeace through people working together, united. He had the power and knowledge to do so… and then we skip 20 years to see the status-quo barely change and Naruto being so weak that he had better feats over a 100 chapters prior to the end of Part II. Honestly Boruto should have been set in the far-future, when we don't have insane gods like Naruto able to one-shot everything. OR if it has to be Naruto's son, then they should have made it focus on small shinobi problems, that Naruto could technically handle, but sine he's busy fighting Ootsutsuki, he'd be too occupied. Maybe go for a Highschool DxD approach and have Naruto and Sasuke, seal themselves with the Ootsutsuki in an alternative dimension, locked from the inside until The Ootsutsuki were defeated. This would instantly change the dynamic in Boruto;
The most powerful Shinobi to live are both gone forcing someone (Konohamaru?) to take the Hokage seat. The change in power leads to remaining warhawks in other nations to see an opportunity for conquest (Something that would make the New Seven Swordsman" idea actually function). Moreover the over-all panic of Konohamaru having to deal with being a new Hokage and Team 7 being plunged into very tense situations would open many avenues for story progression. etc. etc.

That idea was so fucking underused it's almost embarrasing.
On the anime they say "We're gonna coup the fuck out of the mist village lol" and then do nothing about it. If such a thing happened in the actual Naruto series, they would go out and actually carry out the coup, turn that tourist city into an actual warzone so they can try and take power for themselves. Hell, make the guy in power of the water kingdom support the coupists so they can have a better army and try to take the others kingdoms out. Also, we're talking about the mist village, that village that was rulen with an iron fist and had children killing eachother to prove their worth, pretty sure there are a lot of people (mostly boomers, not everyone was on the fourth ninja war to be convinced that working together instead of fighting is best) who wants the old system back because something something glorious past.

I know. Its why I stopped watching it (except for the Time-travel arc, I was hoping - foolishly - that they might do something cool with it, but instead they just made Jiraiya into an idiot and Sasuke look even weaker than before).
The Manga is actually getting to a rather interesting part right now… but that's only if you discount the material it is sequeling.
>>544
Fucking this, exactly. EXCEPT as we see, Naruto and the other Jinchuriki/kage are extremely powerful and the rather public parts of the 4th War ought to mean something. FFS, despite new abilities for the Samehada and other swords, none of those fucking kids was in any way comparable to Zabuza or Kisame. Even if they're going for the "neo-nazis weaker than the originals" idea, its still pathetic.

I've had this idea going around in my head on making a fanfiction called "Boruto Remade" which is pretty much me redoing the story of Boruto so it's better.
Firstly, there's some things I would like to change from the start. Boruto and his sister are now twins and have a younger brother called Jiraiya or Neji, probably Neji. Aside from that, I wouldn't change that much, I would change the name of Boruto to Jiraiya but then the Boruto thingy of the fanfiction wouldn't make sense.
Another thing I would like to change is that thing with the chakras intertwining. You know how Sarada is asking herself if her actual mother was Karin. Actually make that a reality, only that it isn't. What happened is that the mother of Sarada is Sakura, and the father is a combination between Karin and Sasuke because Sasuke was everyday sucking off Karin like a vampire, and then the Chakras kind off intertwined, fucked up the genes, and that's it. There's a reason for this, and that's if Sarada has Karin and Sasuke's Chakras, then what about Boruto? With Boruto would happen pretty much the same, his mother is Hinata, and his fathers are Naruto and Kurama, making for an interesting situation, since that would make it so he has, inside of him a kyubii which can't separate from Boruto's Chakras, kind off like a conjoined twin, Himawari and Neji would probably also have that kyubii growing inside of here, independent but unable to separate from birth.
>Then why ahsn't this been discovered before, jinchuriiki exists since forever
Firstly, they don't tend to live that far, be it because of people actively killing them or getting so angry that the monster inside of them gets out. And even if they tried to live that far, they would probably never fuck because of their outcast behaviour. Hinata and naruto were the exception. Also, it's needed for the jinchuriiki to actually have their chakra and the monsters chakra intertwinedm which isn't the case most of the time, jinchuriiki's are a jail, not a hotel.
Also, Sasuke wouldn't have OP powers. I mean, he would have them, but they wouldn't be so OP as to pretty much being a god and being able to change history if he wanted to. He can travel through space, only that like 50 meters or so, and isn't able to time travel.

Ok, let's go with the story:
Another thing I want to add up. In Naruto, you see the occasional technology showing up, but it's quite rare to actually see such a thing. In Boruto, on the contrary, you see how the hidden village has turned into an industrial city, and the school, instead of being a military school where you were taught to kill people, it's now more civilian, there's still the route to become a ninja, but in that case becoming a ninja becomes more of being a policeman than anything else, most kids go to the civilian route to become a civil engineer, a worker, or stuff like that.
This, in turn, means that the hidden village has become into a normal town, instead of a child mercenary camp. In fact, you see trains going around and one of the kids of the main story is a geek which is also the son of a billionaire thanks to their monopoly on the train industry. So, the story is like this.

After the whole 4th world war chimp out, the hidden village was fucking full of rich people, and they were seen as de facto goverment of the region, which is indisputable, Naruto with literal nuking capabilities isn't something to play with and the world was this close to fucking end. Now, about the technology, that was brought thanks to westerners. This is, after the chimpout and everyone turning into fruit, the whole world turned their eye into the region that is where Naruto is located because, you know, the world ending and stuff (Let's not get into the fact that there was a literal war with the Moon, let's ignore that, shall we). the westerners needed some manpower to do some colonizing through the world, and because there was a shit ton of experienced people on that place (I don't know where Naruto is located, like, i don't know how the continent itself it's called, so let's call it NarutoLand) and so they contracted the help from some of these people, which got paid really fucking well, at the same time that they brought with them war loot, and thus, became the richest from the hidden village. These people, seeing the industrialization of the western countries, saw the writings on the wall and started industrializing NarutoLand, most precisely the hidden village, which has gotten so large because something something farm immigrants and XIX century shit. The families that lived beforehand in Konoha have comfy jobs meanwhile the newly arrived need to live in shitty conditions working 12 hour shifts and some of them outright killing themselves because they can't take it anymore. This industrialization, tho, was made with both western and native interests, this is, the west needs materials, and Konoha gives them to them, and in change, the westerners give them technology, machines and money.
The mental breakdowns are still occuring, and everything happens s estipulated till it is discovered the the purple hair girl is the culprit. There are hints, when they arrest her father *thing that I don't remember that great, I don't think it happens, but regardless they see some note saying something something New Ne or New ANBU or something along the likes (This groups are Hanzo apologists, lead by Hanzo's kid, that want to make the hidden village great again, and are cooperating with the other warhawk factions on other states to accomplish such goal and return to a more simple life of cutting each other's throats, they also have the support from the kingdoms, as their power is being challenged by the ninja villages**).
Then stuff go as normal, Sarada discovers that she is 1/4 Sasuke 1/4 Karin 1/2 Sakura. Something, something, maybe Orochimaru's kid doesn't exists, maybe he does, maybe he is substituted by an OC character or someone else, I don't know.
Then we get into the new seven swordmen saga. Boruto and the gang go out to the mist village, where they meet that guy who is the kid from the iron fisted deposed dictator of the mist village, they do their thing, and then the coup happens. And it happens fucking hard. Technology was also brought up in the armament, it's no longer kunai's they need to worry from, but automatic weaponry, yes, Ninjas with AK-47 and shit, maybe even a discounted tank appears. The kids are inside of a warzone with their teachers, and need to get the fuck out of there. Boruto and Sarada, being the retards that they are, try to help the dictator's kid, but he is in too deep, he believes that it's in its blood to be a fucking psyco and thus go with the other swordmen, and they capture Boruto.
You see, Naruto is the main leader of this new world order of peace, which has driven a lot of Ninjas into bankruptcy. So he recieves, as expected, a lot of hate. And then you have these people, that are pretty much Mist Yihadists, and have captured the kid from the most powerful guy on the world which has made your life pointless.
They take some liberties and try to torture him in live television for everyone to see. Sarada and other people, probably Shikamaru's kid and another character, go out to save him, see some fucked up shit, maybe a ninja with his brains out because of a bullet, and reach the plaza were he is being tortured for everyone to see, but they're detected and taken as prisoners. The main guy of the seven swordsmen have a chimpout with Sarada, beating the shit out of here, and then the Kurama part overdrives inside Boruto, getting out of the bondage and fucking shit up for everybody to see.
And until there. What do you think?

Reposting some of my old posts:

>Is Naruto liberal or is it reactionary? Its obviously not leftist because they constantly defend a feudal government

They don't do that though. The Daimyo stuff is just Japanese LARP and has almost 0 influence on the actual story or world-building. Naruto isn't really about politics relevant to any modern ideology. Their society is essentially a constant Cold War, bordering on hot. This is the background of worldbuilding but is less relevant to the actual plot since the focus is human interactions and conflict; Loneliness and Friendship, Genius and Hardwork, bravery vs fool hardiness, and accepting facts of life or defying them. Politics did become relevant in things like the Chunin exams and the theme about World Peace (Nagato vs Naruto), but again more in the background aspect of political games of diplomacy and war.

For example in Naruto one of the earliest themes was that of Naruto's reason to fight. He started off like a child wanting attention. Then the Land of Waves Arc occurred and he gained a real reason: Fighting to defend his precious people. This evolved into his idea that to be Hokage he must protect the entire village, because the entire village, no matter how they viewed him, were precious to him, because to lead properly, you have to care for the people you're leading, so as to not end up like Danzo (Glownigger Inc), sacrificing everyone to get the political advantage. Back to Land of Waves, Kakashi and Zabuza tell him that to be a shinobi is to be a tool and thus they should kill their emotions… yet it is impossible to truly do and is wrong, and Naruto declares defiance of this. This isn't some Communist ideal, but it is a human fight for betterment.

>What about all the anti-war stuff? Naruto seems deeply anti-war, every discussion of the wars of the past are mostly how horrible they are and every scene of the three world wars is tragic or brutal. How do you feel about it’s stance on war?

It's definitely anti-war, however it doesn't exclude the necessity of it sometimes. An occasionally unavoidable and necessary evil if you will. The stance on war is also realistic. It isn't the feined pacifism of liberal diplomats who just preach about utopian idealisms, it is a genuine statement on avoiding war and related conflict because of its horrific results, and the lack of consideration for innocent, bystanding people that often occurs (Pain's speech demonstrates this well).
Unlike American depictions of war, and similar to Soviet depictions, War in Naruto is brutal and horrific. There can be heroes and good causes, but is a human tragedy regardless.

TL;DR: It is right about War, and matches Soviet attitudes towards it. Hail your heroes and try not to let their sacrifices go in vain, so that new sacrifices will not have to be made.

If you have any more specific questions ask away, Imma head out for now.

You have to report it to the Hokage. You walk in, file in hand, a few tears rolling from your eyes - not just because you’ve lost a comrade, but because one of those ninjas was your best friend you’ve known since you were a genin.

”Hokage-sama,” you say, barely able to get it out…

And there Kakashi is…. Reading about two girls in a wet t-shirt fight and giggling pervertedly.

Honestly given that Naruto was literal ninja god, with the ability to do nigh-magical things with his perfected SoSP chakra and universal understanding of all things (yes UNIVERSAL) he could technically advance technology and jutsu to new levels. Logically, given his ability to do lava-release and other kekkei-genkai (as well as his Hashirama arm) wood release and ice-release are not outside the realm of his ability. Literally an entire series of him literally creating life and doing all sort of god-shit would be awesome.

Also the series seems to just brush off the sheer scale of the war.
The God tree stump is the size of an average mountain at its lowest scaling, and at its highest scaling is easily the largest landmark in the world. The final battle-field alone is riddled with kunai, cooled lava, black-rods, rubble, seals and the various wood-jutsu, such as the giatn wood golem and thousand-arm statue created by Hashirama and Tobi-Yamato. That shit didn't just vanish. That's ignoring the dozen or so Tailed Beast Bombs launched all over the area, the meteors that Madara created and summoned, and the huge wood-release forest in the desert where the 5-Kage faced Madara. We see NONE of this in Boruto. The closest we get is filler when they face-down some dormant White Zetsu and the current arc about the Hashirama-cell.

I'm starting to get pissed off about fucking Boruto nerfing Naruto yet AGAIN (this is the 3rd time). Like, fine you need to hype up the main villain, ok, and the dude absorbs all Chakra attacks. But for fucks sake, its proven that Shadow Clones cannot be absorbed, and Naruto has so much OP taijutsu its not even funny, besides Frog Kata, which fucking jolts your insides into liquid, he has Boil Release Unrivaled strength, which does the same thing Luffy's Gear 2nd does, as well as outright scald whatever he impacts, and unlike Koji's flame fist, Ishikki cannot shrink or absorb this. And unlike Roshi's lava armor, which Naruto technically knows how to do, but doesn't use, boil release is actually something he has used… against fucking Kaguya. The idea that "Kaguya isn't a CQC fighter" is laughable when all the Ootsutsuki are demonstrated to be good at CQC even if opponents of their on league no Ootsusuki has demonstrated good CQC anyway. Naruto should be at least landing a few heavy hits, if only to make Boruto's fight with him more plausible. For fucks sake do people forget Naruto can FLY? Fuck not even fly, as someone with So6P power he can just say "fuck physics" and float. Sasuke can do the same thing with the Rinnegan's 6 paths, simply manipulating gravity. The Rinnegan's abilities would let him do something; the Asura Path's tech is beyond any tech, even Amado's nano-ninja tools. The or Soul pulling and king of hell essentially paralyzes whomever it is used on and even someone as powerful as KCM Naruto and Killer Bee couldn't resist. This shit makes no sense. Hell Sasuke should be able to straight up have no problems seeing his tiny-ass, and Naruto's sensing was powerful enough to find a hidden Kisame who was hidden in Samehada and fight Madara's limbo clones, who exist on another plane of existence and Naruto cannot see.

Fuck this pisses me off. Like I hate Naruto wankers like Fairy Tail Dragon Slayer, but this is ridiculous nerfing.

Speaking of Boruto. Several fillers have actually been decent, comparable to some of Shippuden's more mediocre arcs. The various jutsu and small-level fights Boruto goes through are EXACTLY what I was talking about, where-in instead of Boruto "fighting the Otsutsuki too!!" he's going on minor, but still necessary missions.

The various new jutsu shown (pics related) are also pretty interesting, such as the pyramid barrier used by Konohamaru and other such fuinjutsu. It really throws me back to old Naruto, when shit was more mystical, especially with the several new other-worldly demons being summoned and various kinjutsu/fuinjutsu being used.

As a side note someone had a pretty messed up, but interesting idea for Boruto that mixed the Otsutsuki Plot with the plot of The Last film and ended with the dissolution of the Shinobi era: https://archive.vn/8MKd5

The Haze Brother's Suicide techniques was an interesting touch, but the Tentacle Pit was a bit useless since it's first victim is the user and thus means the enemy may escape later. The Final Red Flower technique was literallly just "exploding clones" with the real body and to zero effect on Deepa apparently. How lame. Also while Boruto losing is interesting, the fact that they LIVE is idiotic and the fact that Konohamaru for some fucking reason didn't use the Wind-Rasengan to literally blow these Kara fuckers away. It feels forced AF… but then so is Isshiki beating Naruto and Sasuke like Genin while they don't use most of their best techniques (sage sensing, boil-release, 6-paths of Rinnegan, frog kumite etc.)

&ltdoesn't make sense in Naruto as the Hokage is the one who chooses which ninja take what missions
The Hokage has final say however the point is
A) show off the potential of the newest generation of Shinobi of X-village as well as the teaching skill of predecessors
B) richer customers may make specific requests, such as Asuma being part of the 12 Guardian Ninja
>2
&ltnon-consecutive exams removed
The referred to round was the preliminary round which was unplanned for. They did it because the finals would already be a long event and they needed to eliminate excess candidates, SUCH AS those who made it through the Forest of Death through luck, riding the coat-tails of their team or on the barest of margins.
>3
&ltgive the ninja who wins the trial overall a guaranteed spot as a Chūnin.
Wrong. If that were the case then any ninja with brute force can be chunnin… except that's idiotic. Shikamaru became one because of his balanced abilities in combat skills, strategy and level-headedness (outsmarting his enemies and giving up when he was essentially done for to quit wasting time in later rounds of the finals). Everyone else fought well but in terms of technical skill displayed very little. Naruto was hot-headed and Neji caught up in his hubris. Gaara was a total psycho and Sasuke was focused on revenge and power even before the Curse Seal.
Rock Lee, was brave and powerful but didn't know when to stop, resulting in him getting cripplingly hurt by an opponent with no mercy (pre talk-no-jutsu Gaara). Participation medals are not an option in a society of literal child-soldiers.
>4
&ltTenten beat offscreen
A) The anime expanded the fight and pointed out how much of a mismatch she was against Temari
B) The manga versions of Kankuro, Neji, and others opponents are reduced as well. It's a constriction of the medium
>5
&ltChange The Second Stage
I don't understand what is being said here, the Chunin exams in the manga and anime are THE ORIGINAL exams.
A 3 v 3 match is a good idea but not exclusive; each exam is different as shown with the OVA's, fillers and Boruto examples.
>Orochimaru marking Sasuke could have been avoided
'Hurr lets ruin the plot because somehow the Hokage is omnipotent about Orochimaru's interests!'
Orochimaru was introduced in this arc and showed no influence prior to this. He is also a ninja who casually defeats people on the level of Kakashi, let alone avoiding Anbu guards.
>6
&ltmany of the smaller villages like Takigakure and Otogakure only had single-digit participants!
Field promotions, individual exams, etc.
>7
&ltIt just doesn't make sense for so much emphasis to be put on testing information gathering skills when it can be skipped over entirely.
It's said outright look underneath the underneath outside of gathering information the test is to gauge your ability to judge the worth and true point of something. This is taken to the extreme during a filler arc wherein a single quietly disguised ninja set up explosives in the entire village while diverting attention, only to intentionally let himself be marked by Anbu to distract from this as well as pre-planning his faked death and REVEAL of faked death while taking into account military movements of a neighboring country and many other factors. He was playing 4D chess and despite being a dying old man, lead Konoha by the nose. And in the end it was all a big 'Treasure Hunt' he created after letting go of his intent of vengeance. (honestly it's a great arc IMO).

&lthow they'd be able to locate the tower in such a short amount of time doesn't add up
A) They have a literal psychopathic jinchuriki steamrolling anyone in their way with bloody force.
B)Kankuro and Temari are also shown to be highly skilled and grew up in a literal desert and as the Kazekage's children likely received top-notch training, their tracking skills are very plausibly skilled.
>9
&ltwhenever Naruto and the others are standing around waiting for the second stage to begin, he's approached by Konohamaru and friends who ask for his autograph
This is the OUTSIDE of the Forest of Death and in full view of participants and staff. This is equivalent to family approaching their competing members before a match starts. He didn't wander in when there were no obvious restrictions.
>10
&ltgambling on the games doesn't make much sense
LOL what? It's literally a blood sport, which always has gambling on it. Horse-racing, soccer, boxing etc. are literally easy spots for 'whose gonna win/lose' betting matches.
>It's creepy
It is a society of CHILD SOLDIERS who are taught to suppress their emotions and be TOOLS. This is pretty standard behaviour, literal bread and circus a la the Colloseum of Rome.
>that outcome be the only one that's bet on
Where is this stated? We see an example of A BET, but it is not implied anywhere to be the only bet going around.
>observers will often try to sabotage the participant they want to have lose, which is something that straight-up just shouldn't be in the exams at all.
Who says they're intentionally allowed to? The mooks who tried to off Gaara for example were obviously hired goons and were an example of outside interference, and clearly not legal. This is like saying people who try to sabotage horse races means that the race itself is wrong… as if the race legally allows this.

I remember watching The Chunin Exam OVA from the Blood Prison movie and being mad AF that Naruto was disqualified for a bullshit rule. FFS he didn't even FIGHT with sage-mode, he just entered it after Konohamaru landed a solid set of hits.
https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x5ycxcd

It really ruined the filler for me, TBH, cause I like original animation of Naruto, just for the fun value. FFS Kakashi makes jounin as a kid before completing his chidori. And yet Naruto is still a genin after defeating enemies that the hokage should have taken care of. That is some serious bias against him.
"Not fair." I always laughed at that stupid filler. They are fucking Ninja. Come on. Will an enemy not use sage power against his enemy because it's not fair? Shouldn't Ninja do anything in order to get an advantage over an enemy? If they are going to nerf Naruto in the chu in exams, then that means they are well aware of his power. Why not just give the dude a field promotion if you're just going to nerf him for the laughably stupid excuse of "not fair"?
A fic that really takes the piss out of this is https://www.fanfiction.net/s/9913124/1/Rage-to-Chunin
the points made are summarized as;
1) Why nerf sage mode but allow the use of Kekkei Genkai?
2) Weren't there fucking adults/old teens in Naruto's first chunin exams? Look at the scene before the written exam. A lot of those guys look like they are older than shippuden Naruto. And I don't think they were fucking nerfed.
3) Why place a genin on a Kage retrieval mission? and a S-rank hunt of rogue ninja (Gaara, Kakuz & Hidan, Itachi).
4) Helped Take out Kakazu, Pain and got a lot of people that we're killed in Konoha revived. He basically helped revive a shit ton of Konoha's ninjas back to life.

Another fic that does the premise of a Shippuden Naruto Chunin exam is World's Greatest Chunin Exam Team: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/FanFic/TheWorldsGreatestChuninExamTeam

Naruto really should have been promoted in the first Chunin Exams, or after the Pain fight. He showed great strategy and leadership skills. If not after first two events then at the very least after the War. I'm still lowkey upset that Naruto never had a Genin team. Would've been a great way to create 3 new, super powerful characters, but instead it just feels like wasted potential. The haha, super-strong eternal genin joke got turned into something annoying.

The newest Boruto chapter (51) is hype as fuck with Naruto's new suicide jutsu/chakra form It's really awesome, but at the same time I'm pissed off because it makes Sauce and Naruto so fucking weak beyond measure. Where is the epic planetary scale dimension hopping struggle like with Kaguya. Obito, Sakura and Kakashi didn't fight for the most part, so it was Sasuke and Naruto against Kaguya whose techniques they beat time an again, even temporarily holding her back while using powers they'd only recently acquired (Rinnegan, SPSM etc.). Naruto shouldn't NEED a suicide technique for an opponent whose chakra absorption is the only reason he isn't a smear on the ground.
Fuck, even early Shippuden didn't nerf Naruto this much.

People keep saying Naruto as a show wasted potential and that's true, but frankly the true wasted potential is Boruto, because Naruto at least had way more redeeming qualities than it did problems, even with the 4th War insanity Boruto has been good idea after good idea crushed under idiocy one after another.

>Kodachi is stepping down from Boruto after Chapter 52 comes out with Kishimoto coming back. Too bad it's far too late for Kishi to save the story.
FFS Naruto's new "Baryon Mode" is somehow using nuclear fission to be more powerful and kill Isshiki by taking his lifeforce too. Naruto doesn't understand it - (though somehow the chakra beast living in the wilds does) - because apparently along with flight and TSB, his SPSM has lost the "universal understanding" he was granted by (and apparently the Retsudan photonic guns and The Last's moonbusting cannon from Kumo are forgotten by him). The concept of a suicide technique doesn't really have a problem (though I don't get why they can't just pull an 8th gate Guy while they're at it), but the depiction doesn't make sense: he's not really hitting harder just stripping away life-force somehow and it means the nerfing of Naruto and Sasuke is strong as ever. Seriously, Isshiki is shown to even have the regeneration of Juudara or Kaguya yet he's stronger than both of them somehow? Kaguya was the one who apparently took Isshiki by surprise and tore off half his body (and chronologically speaking she pulled this off before eating the Shinju fruit), and Naruto managed to get the jump on her and tear off an arm, yet he can't do shit to a dying Isshiki in an imperfect vessel? FFS at least show Sasuke trying one of his genjutsu or Naruto tearing off a limb and him regenerating, at least then we'd at least see that the dude has other things up his sleeve than antman powers. Also if Naruto dies before he gets to meet Kashin Koji or learn who he is cloned from I'm gonna be annoyed AF. At least we could have Kashin Koji maybe teach Boruto or something FFS

Speaking of, Boruto episodes 174 and 175 has Orochimaru just become OP AF, and nonchalantly dismissing the miniature god-tree. The motherfucker vaporized a jonin-level kunoichi with some wind-jutsu and has a regeneration jutsu that puts the hashirama clones to shame, literally regenerating an arm he had blown off like nothing. (The animation detail for the muscles and skin with that was pretty good tho). While I like Orochimaru as a powerful character this is fucking retarded TBH, because this implies a regeneration level comparable to Juubi-Madara. Like I get Orochimaru is doing experiments and took over a Zetsu body but damn if that isn't OP. Makes me wonder how powerful Jiraiya would have been had he survived longer… then again Kashin Koji's abilities are a good example.
The way Boruto, Mitsuki and Sarada beat Deepa was pretty idiotic pulls a DBZ beam-battle. Meanwhile the compressed rasengan makes no fucking sense, a normal rasengan is as compressed as it gets FFS. Episode 176's previewed idea of a blockade also makes no fucking sense, but what else is new

>>4798
The newest episode (176) played with interesting ideas about forced enclosing of the city due to the threat of spies. However it stumbles on a single stupid problem; Naruto's sensory abilities. His Negative emotion sensing and sage mode ought to let him be able to sense every single person in the elemental nations and discern who is a traitor or not through that method. He proved he could do this by
A) Discerning the Zetsu copies from real people
B) Sensing the entire war simultaneously from a far
C) Sensing and discerning the attacks of invisible Limbo clones on another dimension.
The whole thing about the Balloon used for radio communication extension is interesting, and hopefully that chekov's gun is used.

Victor's abilities are also pretty decent, though a lack of absorption hax means that a single rasenshuriken ought to take him out. His regeneration (pic related) is similar to Boro's so it likely means he has a core somewhere in his body, thus a large scale attack like rasenshuriken (which nullifies most regeneration techniques by disabling cells themselves) would take out the core and any other regeneration. Moreover, given that a hot enough flame could nullify it, I would reckon that it functions a bit like a mythological hydra - burning the wound stops regen.

Anyone else like Naruto’s ongoing theme about just how badly warfare can fuck a person up? Like, as a kid, even as a teen I could understand in broad strokes why Nagato was the way he was; but it wasn’t until adulthood and getting a full understanding of reality that I realized, in-universe how truly horrifying the Great Ninja Wars likely were. Like, hypothetically all we get shown are one-off fights, but if we take it and compare it to the real world you know there must have been frequent civilian massacres, brutal war rapes, mass death, etc. We already know that there were legions of torturers and maniacs such as Orochimaru who would experiment on fucking children Mengele-style that fought in the wars. Not to mention extremely powerful jinchuriki alongside their tailed beasts being controlled by the various villages. Then you finally come to tiny-ass countries like the Land of Rain which were explicitly battlegrounds not because the people or the government wanted involvement, but because they were unlucky enough to be the buffer between the large countries; like, the Land of Rain was a brutal warzone and Yahiko was basically like Ho Chi Minh trying to BTFO all the imperialists so his people could finally know peace.
Honestly this ties to the other thing I love about Naruto, is the fact that there actually are people who objectively want the world to be a better place despite being the antagonists, honestly in another story Pain really could be the hero giving Konoha their just desserts.

>Rightoid weebs try to relate to shippuden and fail utterly at understanding it (like with Tanya the Evil)
Itachi is whirling in his anime grave right now.

Seriously how do you misunderstand a quote this badly? (Not to mention the context* of the situation in general). Itachi is literally the embodiment of "sacrifice yourself for the greater good". Moreover, the main hero of the series, NARUTO, is all about the pain of loneliness and the need to rely on and fight for others as well as yourself. It's a more nuanced 'we live in a society'. Itachi was differentiating this idea from the obsession that Kabuto had.


*They live in a semi-feudal world with military-dictatorships and super-human warriors with various elemental and energy-based attacks on top of insane physical stats, societies constantly at war and subsequently having child-soldiers (LIKE ITACHI) having to sacrifice themselves for a greater good, sometimes unnecessarily. Comparing this society and it's values directly to people today is like trying to compare feudal Japan with modern Japan.

Moreover Itachi is saying this while fighting Kabuto, an orphaned boy become medic, spy and scientist whose idol was Orochimaru and his own lack of identity and trauma lead him to essentially BE Orochimaru, whilst ignoring himself and not actually having any real connections outside of a delusional idea of "genetic relation"/abilities.

Hypothetically what’s the difference beyond trading the Samurai for the Yakuza?

Does anyone have any personal head-canon or has read any fanfiction that attempts to explain the fact that Naruto's world despite being like a feudal warring states era japan has like electricity and running water and factory production?.
Like the place that Jiraiya finds pain and co is literally like a gigantic fucking factory facility + some houses that people are like squatting inside of since most of the city seems to have been levelled by something. Its like seriously who the fuck built all this shit and then fucked it all up to this extent?
I always sorta saw it as a nod that the setting wasn't all it first appeared and was potentially a post-apocalyptic setting with some undefined event (Like a nuke war, Just a massive conventional war with guns and bombs and shit that just dragged on for way to long) that happened in the past causing the world to look like this.

If you think about it the goal of the Akatsuki insofar as what pain and Konan want to accomplish and is trying to guide the group towards is pretty much noble. Obviously everyone else's motives for wanting to basically stop war by taking over the known world is not really ever clearly defined but its never exactly said that any of them (Deidara, Sasori, Kisame, Hidan, Kakuza etc) want to do anything particularly evil / Madera/Tobi tier either if/when they theoretically "win".

They basically just want to put feudal lords and the mercenary warlords that use child soldiers and profit off of said war on an industrial scale in the killing fields and then take away everyone's walking superweapons that can destroy the world at anytime and basically just put them in safe keeping.

>explain the fact that Naruto's world is [anachronistic]
The most popular and probably accurate theory (supported by various ruins and the story of Kaguya - before Boruto retcons) is that the Narutoverse originated from a post apocalyptic past, and when Kaguya arrived she introduced chakra, but otherwise society still progressed as normal. After all there are literally guns in Naruto, yes I say again, there are guns in Naruto, in the shop at Land of Waves for example. But as we can see ninja are clearly far above guns in terms of speed and what not (supersonic reaction times and superhuman speed/senses on average) which undercuts their utility. Additionally chakra makes things easier so construction and innovation is easier and allows for minor amenities and simple technology like electricity, small radios, primitive computers, etc as we learly see that more complex technology is in limited supply (computers were only available to the Hokage and shinobi in limited amounts) and no access for civilians.

I know this is a joke but goddamn if it ain't stupid.
Kakuzu did it for money, Hidan was a blood-thirsty sadomasochist, Hidan and Deidara were "artists" and Orochimaru was one out of curiosity, Zetsu was a grand manipulator that sought to free his mother. Kisame enjoyed his work, even if he simply sought a world without lies, Itachi was there to keep Madara under control (originally he was just a psycho). Out of all of them only Nagato (Pain) and Konan, who were from the original Akatsuki, wanted >the power of the tailed beasts for peace.
to generate an illusion that creates world peace
None of them were aware of this plan Madara had other than Obito.
>No more private property, states, classes, money
Except that's not it at all, the Infinite Tsukiyomi gave every individual their own perfect dream based on their desires, and none of them that we see exclude any of the stated things. It was the status quo but idyllic. Moreover the whole point is it's a dream and it's promises a lie. It's like an organic Matrix.
>living in the utopia generated by the productive forces of their minds
That's not my utopia, when nothing is real and nothing matters, nothing is made, and we don't really go anywhere. It reminds me of that episode of Star Trek, when Moriarty becomes sentient and is sent into a program that lets him explore the world of Star Trek through a computer simulation, but
A) He is not aware of it being a simulation
B) He was never a real person able to live a real physical life to begin with.

The recent episode 210 of Boruto follows up on the Boro cult that was introduced and it's surprisingly well written (if a little rushed). It kicks you in the feels like the original Naruto did. The religious sacrifices to "meet the gods" reminds me a little of Aztec/Mayan cults.
