truly one of the best villain themes ever.
Naruto had some kino music throughout its run
Madara was kino just Kagura or whatever her name was disappointing
Which Madara are you talking about?
I'm referring to Rinne Tensei Madara Uchiha with the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan and Rinnegan doujutsus (with the rikidou paths ability) equipped with his Gunbai and control of the juubi and Gedou Mazou, a complete Susano'o, with Hashirama Senju's DNA implanted in his chest so he can perform Mokuton kekkei genkai and yin-yang release ninjutsu as well as being extremely skilled in taijutsu and bukijutsu.
Please have sex
newhomosexual election tourist go back to your troony discord
Madara was moronic, Another Uchiha remember when byakugan was just as strong as sharingan? Forget about it it's just sharingan this sharingan that so fricking lame Uchiha ruined the show, they are all dead and yet still everywhere fricking lame.
>later
the only villien came after pain was madara the GOD who saved this show
Kaguya don't exist BORUTO DONT EXIST madara won with Infinite Tsukuyomi & everyone after is the dream
>muh headcanon
Frick you
>madara won with Infinite Tsukuyomi & everyone after is the dream
holy frick...
KINO ALERT
Kaguya would have been cool if they introduced the concept way earlier, the way she was introduced it felt like an afterthought
She's also a much easier opponent than Madara was. Sure she had supremely hax abilities but she lacked intelligence in several regards (intel on her opponents that Madara had accumulated with his fights with them, experience in battle, mental fortitude (that scene where she gets distracted by the male harem just)).
Yeah the exposition dump near the end to explain that all ninja abilities comes from some alien coming to their planet to kill the life their but her human hybrid sons stop her and it turns out she's the been the REAL villain the whole time. Felt like a whole arcs worth of plot crammed into 3 episodes. It literally pauses in the finale just to tell you all this stuff otherwise you'd be confused when the alien lady appears.
Something tells me they had no idea how to end the series in a grand finale, so they simply went full moron
based. Madara and Obito are my heroes. I wish they existed IRL too.
btw I hate Naruto the character. He is such a spoiled complete moron. His "argument" to Nagato is
>I am the main character in a book
and then all he says to Obito is
>I have a dream!! I get to be the leader of muh village!! I hate people who aren't liked and popular and successful!
Like what an ego-driven moron. He can't even comprehend not being the main character and having super powers. That's why he's the worst MC in anything.
>They're all in a dream
So Naruto pulled a total recall?
I used to read word up magazine
Beat me to it
Only black people like Naruto
Funny i always asked why so much black people are into anime but not other nerd shit
Violent power fantasies
Exactly
It's literally the only reason I've watched animes, I fricking love the fighting aspect and I don't get to release that pent up aggression in real-life.
Blacks also are really into fighting games
Hence, why they can't fight for shit.
They came back from school to a fatherless household and sat in front of toonami
they couldn't get any better than the villains they made at first. they are the best of all time
hidan and kakuzu were the peak of naruto
Kisame...
Wait wtf why did you post my image before me
Does boruto make money suscessful
VS
If boruto didnt exist & they simply gave us stories about characters from the past & things we wanted to see but didn't get
LIKE THE OTHER FRICKING 8 beast we didn't get until the last few fricking episodes
am I too hard on boruto
Remember the chills you got seeing orochimaru transform for the first time and hearing that Bach's fugue and toccata inspired theme? How do I get that feel again
No, I read the manga
Ninja was peak gay
>first Naruto season
>the best ninja can fight well and is pretty fast but you can beat him by being smarter
>last Naruto season
>giant interdimentional chakra Gundams fighting on the moon
Cringe.
japs always become moronic with power levels
Agreed, early Ruto was pure kino. Up through Pain it was still watchable minus filler. After that the extreme decline began and by the end I did not care anymore.
>After that the extreme decline began
I think it started declining because they ran out of proper narration. I.e., they had set everything until the pain arc up well so that that arc would make sense, and then it just jumped the shark because they had to have *some* sort of story.
Ducks are dinosaurs.
shonen in a nutshell

>Ships the original romance parings through the entire series.
Japan
Pain/Itachi/Jiraiya is the power-level at which the show should've plateaued, when it went beyond that it got stupid
i stoped watching / caring here because the show became pure catshit, still didn't finished it and i don't know who won the war.
Also the lack of romance in original Naruto is bullshit, i wanted Naruto to hook-up with Hinata when i was a teenager, same for other kids, maybe Sakura will say "frick you sasuke and i will kiss Neji to make you jealous" or anything with innocent romance but nah i only got fillers, frick you.
Every shonen starts out with its gimmick then turns into DBZ flying around and shooting beams eventually
kishi dedicated years and years to Pain. he couldn't afford such time to other villains.
I can't believe wanpissgays thought the shichibukai were better designed villains just because they all wore the same uniform while oda pulled a bunch of paper slips out of a hat and created a bunch of lolrandumb characters.
cp9
>villain is an insane genocidal maniac who destroys an entire village, killing thousands of innocents
>"but remember guise, he had le tragic past and the village's military killed his parent so he's justified!"
What's hilarious about this is that this is exactly how the show portrays him and the MC is unable to come up with a counter-argument for him, even though any rational human being with an iq higher than 100 could see how he's a literal psychopath who uses his own misfortunes as an excuse to inflict misery on other people.
Kinda goes to show how shitty the writing in naruto is and how braindead its fans are.
I agree naruto is shit writing but Pain was merely being pragmatic. Humans are too inherently flawed to rise above savagery. His solution was coercion
Pain is the american military nuking japan and japan feeling bad afterwards accepting they deserved it
The Japs didn't deserve it, though. That entire conflict was the fault of FDR.
but he's completely justified tho, he's Hannibal razing Rome after the punic wars
>but he's completely justified tho
You're a braindead moron, kek
pain's argument was that the only way to achieve peace was through the threat of violence, if he had the entire world grabbed by the balls no one would dare have another world war when he can just show up to the capital undetected and level the entire fricking city in 2 seconds
nuking a tyrannical nation that has started wars and committed genocide seems pretty justified to me
>it's 100% ok to murder thousands of innocent bystanders and children just because the military of the place they were born in sucked
You sound like the most pathetic and moronic psychopath to ever exist.
It feel conected and making some sense, cool backstory, now kaguya was just outright full asspulling
Sasori is interesting, probably the best out of all akatsuki in terms of backstory. But the stupid writers cant treat his character good
holy gem
he was so badass. Whats the opposite of plot armor? Sasori shouldnt have been taken out by Sakura and granny
The puppeteers were my favorite type of ninja in the show. It's unfortunate kishi ignored them, despite the immense potential
>immense potential
Nas coal
He and the immortal duo were some of my favourite villains in the show. Maybe it's for the best that they were the first real Akatsuki members to be killed off. The plant guy turned out to be inconsequential and Tobi was the most predictable identity reveal in manga history. Everything about Akatsuki after Pain's death dragged on for way too long. Although the fight between Tobi and Konan was cool
Because Naruto should have ended at the Pain arc. It was by far the peak of the series, not the Chunin Exams, this was the peak.
After this, the series became a shittier version of Dragon Ball Z.
My trans gf always cries when jiraya dies, peak of the series as I get consolation sex hehe
>I've grown from a man...to a god
Pure kino
Kaguya happened because Kishimoto didn't know how the protagonists could possibly kill Madara without making things completely moronic.
how did this guy even make the cut with his lack of skills
Great villain. He was a moron with a god-like power who brought the best out of a secondary character in order to defeat him.
Hidan killed the 2 tail beast and Asuma. He was very strong
He was a one trick pony and had low fight iq unlike every other member. very straight forward to deal as a team once you lose your first member and figure out his gimmick, which can't be said for any other akatsuki
Irrelevant cope I didn't ask for, he killed the 2 tail beast and Asuma. He was very strong
Hidan is still immortal and one cut from him is a pretty much instant death.
I always thought they kept him around specifically to be partnered with the guy that kept killing his partners
Kakuzu. They should have just partnered him with Itachi, he'd be too scared to try anything and I doubt itachi would annoy him
Kakazu was Akatsuki's banker and Itachi was one of their most valuable members due to his skills and background so both of them were too important to be killing one another. The set up they had was probably the best way to do it.
I found his defeat boring. No fear in him when he's left as an exploded body left in a pit forever since he's immortal, but rather sounds more annoyed. The lack of emotion in Shikamaru also takes away from it as well. Buddy had his leader killed by this guy while getting off to it and he just talks to him blandly and boring to him before walking away from his exploded body. He should have been more vicious to show what his intellect can bring about against his enemies. I would taken his severed head by to the Hidden Leaf to be endlessly tortured by killing one of their top ninjas. The guy gets off on pain so give him more than what he wants to the point where he wishes for death.
uhh wtf
Every group needs a mentally ill schizo
Orochimaru*
Orochimaru was creepy and a strong starter villain. But Pain's mysticism and power made him the best final boss. I always thought he was like some kind of evil reflection of Naruto
>pain
>evil
>be 12
>naruto on toonami
>this is the coolest thing ever, I want a headband too

Should've known you guys have shit taste
So why didn't you go back to Cinemaphile?
frick those elitist homosexual in that shithole
Cinemaphile here, kill urself narutard. that gateway to darkness should never have been allowed back on Cinemaphile.
>that gateway to darkness should never have been allowed back on Cinemaphile.
naruto was always allowed and discussed. it was never banned, stop being a newbie.
naruto was also discussed in other boards at the time, it was simply too popular not to.
You just complained about people on Cinemaphile having 'shit taste'. Isn't that something an elitist homosexual would say? It seems like you would be a perfect fit for Cinemaphile
Anime website
Hasn’t been an anime website in an entire decade. Moot was a homosexual and you can frick off too.
>enters an anime thread
>oh no why are people talking about anime
>*autism beam intensifies*
>tr/a/nny attempts to deflect with "r-reddit"
lmao, just because people like Naruto doesn't mean they want your "cutesy" autogynephilic shit
i 'member when he got run off of somethingawful for being a creepy weirdo and made this shithole as a refuge

don't care

go back to Cinemaphile, troony
so now you're a crybaby troony
>cute romcom thread
moetr/a/nny dogwhistle
Name it, I probably watched it
Honestly they all suck except maybe orochimaru? I'll never understand narugays.
is boruto worth watching yet?
No
Who did it best, orochimaru or his zoomer ripoff
Orochimaru won
Midzan lost
hee hee
shamone
ah ah ah
OOWWWWWW!!
Reminder that Might Guy is the best character of the whole franchise and a role model
>knows the ultimate forbidden jutsu that will 100% kill himself and his soul
>it should never be used even in the most dire of circumstances
>uses it to save the world
>just kinda cripples his leg
realistically he should have died but then we wouldn't have had the Narujesus moment
Madara was the only good thing that came after the Pein arc, and should have been the main villain of series
Boruto is a meta take on the Infinite Tsukoyomi
Pain was great but madara was fricking Cinemaphile kino
Why did that get lots of (You)s?
it was an ebin 4chin read-along that took a few weeks to get to this point
Madara is great.
the villain soundtracks are top tier in Naruto
The series went to shit the moment they aged the protagonists.
Where do I go for good fanart? Deviantart used to be good, but it's filled with garbage now.
I don't know but if you get something tell me, twitter and pixiv are where nips go to but pixiv isn't that popular and twitter is untagged so its hard to get actual art
Zabuza was the peak of the show. Until he ended up gay and then the manga fell off a cliff.
>Naruto...
>Sorry for letting you live in poverty and letting the villagers mistreat you, I should have done something about that.
>Did I ever tell you that your father was the hero that saved Konoha from destruction? No? Oh yes he was also the 4th Hokage and he defeated a terrible beast which he put inside your body at the cost of his life.
>He was a good friend...
My favorite anime is Narotu Shypyudden
>OP6
>OP7
k-kino
Jiraiya is so based
i'm sad he went so early, but he sure went out on a high note, i don't think any other fight had that many different jutsus back to back
Jiraiya actually did pretty well against Pain all things considered.
Did better than practically anyone else in Konoha would've if they were in his shoes. You can owe that all to his versatility as a Shinobi. I think he and Onoki are really the only ones in the world at that point in time who could've done what he did or even come close to succeeding.
I think Pain himself mentions if Jiraiya knew his deal before the fight he'd have lost hard.
i can hear it in my head
The screaming pain? yeah so I am.
I can't believe he was the only one who did ninja shit in the series.
she cute
Why did the make Killer Bee so light skinned in the anime? He was clearly intended to be black
Because it was racist
>compared to Pain
There was only ever ONE, true, Naruto villain...
He never really had any goals other than he wanted to destroy the Hidden Leaf nation and just make weird experiments
His goals were intellectual. He said something along the lines of
>I want to learn every jutsu to understand the absolute truth of life
That was just an elaborate way of saying "I want to become immortal"
Still a clear cut goal
it doesnt say how dude turned them into his paths or got six other pairs of rinnegan eyes
Its ninja magic
their rinnegan aren't real, the only actual pair is nagato's, that's why each path has only access to one of the rinnegan's abilities
i would've liked to see how they became pain's puppets though since it showed jiraiya meeting at least 3 of them before
Justification
Remember when Naruto wasn't even allowed on Cinemaphile? Now you get narutards infesting other boards too. All these years, and you still haven't grown p and found a little bit of taste...
t.newbie who believed other newbie shitposts
>single-handedly mogs the rest of Naruto and makes it actually interesting and engaging to watch
Instead of Boruto we deserved a Hebi/Taka spinoff.
>Villains that cannot defeat him simply run away because they know who they`re fricking with
>takes an entire hivemind team to kill, still manages to send his email
it was a great send-off, but i wanted more of him, goddamn it
his story ended, be glad, anime that goes on too long ends up fricking over everything, i didnt even finish the show and ive seen they`ve basically remade the fricking thing now with having kids and clones of jiraiya so they can give fans the same shit over again
possibly my favourite colour cover (there were many great ones)
his ending was bullshit
it just seemed very forced. obviously he would be more helpful alive than giving some stupid code. Pain should have caught him without Jiraiya stupidly giving himself up like that.
he had to die to give Naruto a reason to hate Pain and have him overcome that hate
>run home from school at 14 years old to read the latest bleach/naruto manga chapter
It was a different time. The world was simpler.
Say the line troon lmao
literally everyone agrees that Naruto gets a pass, it's not tranime
It's the most tranime of tranime.
this
back to Cinemaphile
i started watching naruto from the shippuden series, did i miss anything of value?
the few filler episodes when they're kids again are unbearable
>did i miss anything of value
Obviously. This is not Dragon ball you moron.
Yes, it's not good like Dragon ball.
Haha very epic roast my friend.
Dragon Ball was a gag parody of Journey To The West, Dragon Ball Z barely have anything do with it that's why people skipped it.
What kind of an idiot would try to imply Dragon ball is bad? and within the same breath try to imply Naruto is better? Frick off, copycat. Trannies like you are not welcome here.
Are you fricking moronic? I said Dragon Ball was a gag parody, Dragon Ball Z was a battle shounen that's why people usually skipped 1. When did I say they're bad?
People don't skip shit, moron. It's legendary.
Good morning, sir. I are not surprised you am also fan of Naruto, is best anime.
>hyped up because they should be as strong as naruto
>all those kino designs
>only really fleshed out gaara and b, then threw away the rest for a plot point he didnt even commit to by letting the main 3 live anyway
what a waste
I was always most interested in the guy on the very left. Right most looks the coolest however. We should've gotten him instead of the rapping homieboo shit in the cloud village. Eight Tails is also where the cringe "Tailed beasts are muh frens" plot point started that ruined the entire point of having malevolent demon gods as living weapons to be sealed away. Remove the other nog too for the sheer amount of cuck porn it inspired among troons and japs

The Tobi/Obito and the cool guy redemption shit was even worse.
Pain had a legitimate goal that wasn't just grivience , he wanted to destroy the ninjas and create a mercenary army. All that Madara/Uchiha wank shit later was fricking stupid.
Nail to the coffin was alien shit. Kaguya and the Otsutsuki clan nonsense turned anime into wholy different thing.
Seems like no one gave OP the real answer yet.
The real answer is new editor.
The author of naruto is a literal autistic moron and you need a tardwrangler to keel the autism on check.
Look at Samurai 8, it's literally what happen when you choosed a yes man as an edito to a fricking stupid autistic moron.
AMATERASU
KAGUTSUCHI
They build this attack to be a ultimate finisher, but it defeats no one.
Orochimaru never apologized
Reminder that pain only lost because he showboated
Mods, more anime posting. They're doing it like tiktok posters or porn posters now. It's time to start 4040'ing these mongoloids. Wrong board
Cope
pure kino
and it only happened because Tsunade was a typical provocative b***h literally talking shit to an orphan when he was already going to leave
madara and obito were trash villains, how can people like these absolute pussies?
because they are intellectuals who want to solve the problem of endless suffering rather than taking the selfish cope route
what do they solve you moron? besides turning every human into a vegetable
ending all suffering and enslavement of people. no one asks to be born. They don't choose their fate.
for me, the genjutsu isn't necessary. He could have simply detonated the planet instead.
so you are just a mentally ill heckin' nihilist, makes sense your type likes it
t. evil slave driver
madara is a buddhist
They think madara is the ultimate cool guy because he was hyped up from the start of the show
Remember when Rasengan could kill its user on an atomic level?
yeah and it gives the user ninja AIDS
It never killed anyone. Even Minato's rasengan didn't kill teenage Obito.
that was only Rasen Shruiken
True but he does it all the time without consequence
Remember when the Akatsuki's rings were supposed to be important?
Lol. I think the last time the rings played any role was when Deidara retrieved his ring and Tobi got Sasori's ring.
Kishimoto doesn't.
Itachi being retconned into "achtually he was a hero" will forever be one of the stupidest things this series has done.
He was everyone's favorite character except for RockLeegays
yeah and the morals are stupid too
>just kill your family for the village goy
Why did he kill his family again? I don't remember
because his clan was planning a coup and the old village leaders ordered them genocided
Really? Uchihas always looked like nice people
no they were police chuds
I saw it coming early on. Sorry bud
was it actually retconned or was it planned from the start? to me it seemed planned
It comes across as a retcon if you didn't realize Itachi cried that night. Even if it was planned there are some inconsistencies like Itachi being unnecessarily cruel and practically pushing Sasuke into Orochimaru's hands when Sasuke already hated him at that point.
Kishimoto isn't a good writer.
No, there were also hints in Sasuke's flashbacks that the Uchiha clan was roping Itachi into a conspiracy against the village government
Kishimoto is entirely the product of his editors, he has no real agency, he would have made an arc that took place on the moon if his editors told him to
There's always the possibility of the GRRM method where they imply both paths for the character before fully deciding on one or the other later on. Or its a ninja fighting series for teenage boys with inconsistent writing. Perhaps both
It was planned. idk where the meme came from that it was a retcon.
>bro just let me torture you for 3 days for no fricking reason

Foreshadowed since chapter 7.
wtf lol is this real?
manga is so shitty. it's just the storyboard for the anime kino.
Dumb anime-only tard. You wait years for an adaptation only to potentially get shitty animation.
and you get NO animation, NO voice, NO music or watching after everything is spoiled
lol thanks for beta testing *pushes your head into toilet*
yeah that shit is trash
its not even the fact that he made a difficult choice for the greater good, that's alright.
its the fact that they play him off as secretly the wholesome good guy the whole time and he just needs to be le redeemed!
I'm fricking sorry but he's evil. sure he was put in the tragic position where there was absolutely no non-evil choice but this doesnt change the fact that what he did absolutely WAS evil and there is no coming back from it. at first he seemed like a dude who had accepted that there is absolutely no coming back and its a good thing for sasuke to want to kill him. but as soon as they started putting him in some moral light the character was fricking dead and just became lame.
I hated how the final fight that happened in the span of 2 days took like 1/3 of the manga/anime.
I cried when Haku died
computer was out in the living room back then & I was trying not to let my mom see me sobbing
haku and zabooza arc is PEAK naruto
When Tenten saw Neji in her dream and she was happy again
Remember that he was 100% right.
Hard work and effort will never get you ahead of those that are born in the right conditions.
it's funny how the series starts out about muh hard work > anything
and then it ends up with..
>muh dad was hokage and gave me super powers
>mom gave me super powers
>have moron chakra from special seal
>literally a prophecy about me
>inhabited by spirits of light / darkness or whatever
completely btfoing all the fake morals at the beginning.
Naruto spent the entire first season talking about not giving up and effort only to find out he's the reincarnation of some ninja god later.
>series starts out about muh hard work > anything
Was never a thing, brainlet.
well it should have been, might guy >>>> nardo
Naruto did work hard though, and if he didn't then he wouldn't have been strong
He was lazy and uncreative just like Sakura. All their techniques spoonfed to them with minimal experimentation. Sasuke is the only one who showed greatness.
the most badass entrance in the history of the genre
remember when he stopped using these powers
don't worry, he has plenty of time to use them now that his OP foxhacks are gone
This and Itachis intro when he uses Tsukuyomi on Kakashi were the peak
Stopped watching right after this homies death. After him naruto becomes a full blown kids cartoon. Early naruto somehow looks way more mature and different.
Cope. Naruto was always intended for teens
Itach should've stayed a villain brehs
What was kishi thinking???
Someone post the Sasuke mind break green text

>shits on your gayuto
the actual main characters in naruto are massively insufferable and moronic. bleach has more giant breasts women too
>ichigo has a bankai, vaizard & quincy powers
yeah nah
Nta, but I can agree that Ichigo is the least interesting part of Bleach.
it doesn't help that 98% of bleach is about him saving the day because literally everyone else is irrelevant or useless
Ichigo's mom being a quincy was moronic and completely unnecessary. Quincies in general felt hamfisted in how they came out of nowhere and genocided soul society to become the final bosses. At least the hollows were established as a threat from the beginning and beings that existed to feed on spirits/humanity

Probably a test tube experiment
stop asking questions and just consoom
i only used kisame in the ultimate fighters games
Because it looked cool
>Kishimoto first intended to make Akatsuki's members monsters with almost no human traits. Zetsu, Kisame and Kakuzu (and, to a lesser extent, Deidara and Sasori) are prime examples of this. Kisame, in particular, resembles a Samebito (鮫人, literally meaning: Shark Man), a Japanese mythological creature.

You’re forgetting a major player
Madara and Obito > Pain
saga after pain was very low effort, it became dbz bc the author wanted just to end it, and he knows that lowering the quality wont affect the viewership
No, it was edging that way for a while and people who think it came out of nowhere didn't really get the buddhist/occult themes that were leading up to it and had been built for a while which is understandable, but they're incredibly common themes in Japanese anime, shonen in particular.
The war itself was just pretty fricking stupid. All round stupid. Stupid on a logical and a narrative level. The moment Kabuto bust out nostakes no jitsu it was just one long slog until Madara took over, and even then.
And now you know why people thought Asura's Wrath stole its concepts from it.
Really if you watch anime like this you should familiarise yourself with the concepts alongside Jungian psychology because those crazy nips are absolutely obsessed with it. Personally I enjoy the themes and am happy to see Boruto lean fully into the gnostic side of them rather than the Jap oriented ones.
Show became trash the moment Tobi wasn't the 4th hokage.
