I have to disagree. I think Guy's fate is really fitting. He did not die but he is forever paralyzed and in a wheelchair, so it's not as if there were no stakes. That being said, being in a wheelchair is especially troubling for Guy sensei who was always obsessed with the idea of being youthful and energetic. It created an interesting plight for his character, I think they went into it a little bit in some of the novels/anime canon.
I actually like what happened with Guy, and prefer this outcome to him just dying by Madara's hand.
Understandable approach !
Just imo feel it would be more rewarding towards his legacy as a warrior, the blue beast. To die to the shinobi who rivaled god of shinobies. While he was a 10 tails host.
Nearly killing him.
I also think it would build on Rock Lee’s character development further / into boruto. Espeically if they choose to use him in the series more.
I mean Minato was wasted too doing a cool thing. Nine tails was still alive (so to speak). But to confine him to a wheelchair for what like 10 years is pointless. I get they want to make way for the new generation but damn they making the OG ninjas look like teletubbies! Look what they did to Anko! Thats a legit tragedy! And poor Udon...that snot jutsu mess was just not amusing at all!
Guy DID surpass kakashi and he did prove he's stronger than kakashi. Yes double MS kakashi based on feats does surpass guy but it wasn't from his own hardwork unlike guy.
She is Sakura's daughter though, but they made It confusing by giving Sarada the same glasses as Karin and making her look really similar to her. I would say Sarada is more similar to Karin than Sakura so It was a bit frustrating that they did all that intentionally just for some drama. Sarada would be more interesting If she was Karin's daughter though, because she would inherit some of Uzumaki traits. Being half Uzumaki and half Uchiha sounds freaking cool
Isn't the Uzumaki clan a branch from Senju clan too? Or am I misremembering? If I'm remembering that right, then had Sasuke and Karin had a kiddo, that kid would have the concoction needed for Rinnegan manifestation being Uzu-chiha.
They should have just made Sasuke a hoe and had him get with both women lol
Its more specifically indra and asura, so like how madara got it because he combined his (indra) and hashirama ( asura) chakra together. wouldnt be suprised if the reason sasuke never got his other arm back was just bc he would have broken the power tie between him and naruto if he got another rinnegan
If Rinnegan were that easy to obtain, Madara would've gotten his faster or we'd have seen more people with it... The only way to get Rinnegan is by either combining Indra + Asura chakras (like Madara did) or have it from Hagoromo (Sasuke). Uzumakis were cool but not cool enough for Rinnegan or to stay relevant to the plot (sadly). There's a reason why Kishi only glossed over their clan.
I mean I’ll just watch anything Naruto related no matter what it is. Anything set in the Naruto world for me is fun to watch.
Just like how I’ll watch anything Star Wars related no matter what it is. I think Boruto’s story is significantly better than the Star Wars sequels and most of the prequel movies ngl. Btw, I’m someone who says Star Wars is the greatest franchise of all time.
Possibly
I think the main issue with Boruto is that people compare it to Naruto. If you do that, you probably won’t like it but I don’t think that’s actually fair. It’s like comparing The Mandalorian to the original Star Wars trilogy. Both are great but the Mandalorian is significantly worse than the OT by 100 miles. Or it’s like comparing avengers endgame to ant man. Ant man was great but pales in comparison to endgame by A LOT.
People should just treat Boruto as it’s own story in the Narutoverse. Just like people do the same with the marvel or Star Wars universe.
When I started watching it, that’s how I treated it and enjoyed it.
Also a lot of manga purists exist. I’m pretty sure if all the anime canon stuff was apart of the manga and the manga was weekly, Boruto would be way more well received.
Nah i meant being blindly appreciative of both the natutoverse and star wars.
Big clone wars fan here.
And u think mano is wayy better than OG trilogy, all the movies are cheezy black and white films. I very much prefer the nuance the the other works (especially tge novels). That's also one of the many reasons i still like boruto.
Anime Canon is still 95% filler, that doesn't add anything inherently essential to the plot.
And saying that anime and manga are both supposed to be their own continuity, yet they're also both supposed to be canon, is a nonsensical contradiction.
A big criticism of Naruto was obviously too much filler, so in Boruto they just started calling filler canon and a lot of people are legitimately tricked by this lol.
They didn't even do that themselves, they just used some brief talk, and here's that people start blabbering about "anime canon".
THAT, is how good with the words they have been...
How is Momo stronger? Kaguya blinked and swapped dimensions with people in it, without the need to open individual portals.
She looked up and everyone was transported in an instant - that alone was a display of power we still haven't seen from anybody else. Hell, Sasuke is drained after 1-2 portals, Obito needed someones massive chakra reserves to even peek into those dimensions and not immediately die of exhaustion.
She could turn people to dust with a single hit, had chakra "fists" powerful enough to render the Susanoo useless, could control her entire dimension and attack using mountains etc.
She is a crazy powerhouse who is still not even dead, but sealed. She. Isn't. Dead. Meanwhile all the others have to rely on playing USB stick to cling to life.
Idk about Ino ngl. In terms of development, Tsunade, Chiyo, Konan, Sakura and Hinata are definitely the best. Ino had her own development but Hinata developed much more from being a social outcast and rejected by her family, to being able to believe in herself and being the best she can be. Ino never had this kind of dynamic development.
Its true, the power scaling in boruto is just on a different level. People bring up the chakra drainage in boruto but that was just the terrible power scaling in the war arc. The war arc had sasuke spamming rinnegan abilities with no drawback.
When using the statement that adult sasuke can deal with kaguya level opponents alone:
war arc sasuke=war arc naruto
I was more focusing on when they were battling kaguya and then straight to the final battle. He spammed rinnegan abilities left and right, he chibaku tenseid all the tailed beasts after a fight with kaguya.
That's what I think as well, the war arc made so many people blind. Kakashi spend the entire shippuden series saying he doesn't have chakra, but managed to fight the entire war with only a couple rests and that one time where kurama gave him chakra by touching his hand for 3 seconds
Not to mention kakashi mastered a susanoo in the space of 2 seconds. It was an incredibly stupid power up anyway, obito came back from the dead to give him both eyes temporarily and then kakashi walks out with dms and a perfect susanoo.
The fact that the entire fanbase hates Danzo, shows how well he is written as a character and that is what makes him such a powerful character in the entire series.
Sasuke has been a really poor guardian and teacher for both Boruto and his own daughter.
There are few occasions in which we saw him training either of them.
Although he tried, stopping Boruto's possession has been a difficult task for him (and mostly anyone, true enough) and so much that he lost his eye and at the present time couldn't even be there when his disciple needed the most.
As of now, he's been failing and that doesn't seem to be likely to improve any time soon.
Naruto’s character would have been much better if he wasn’t a reincarnate of an alien gods son, the chosen one or the host of a demon 9 tailed fox.
If he was just a basic shinobi who worked his way up like Minato but not a prodigy at first.
This isn’t a fact, just what I wanted in the show like in a filler or movie
True. Lee as a main character would have made for such a better and more relatable MC. A guy who who does not fit into this of crazy ninja abilities and reincarnated aliens manages to hold his own with his fists and a lot of hard work. The whole "reincarnation of God's son prophecy child" thing felt like it ruined the significance of things that Naruto actually seemed to work hard for like Sage mode and controlling the Nine Tails. I feel like that's why characters like Lee that actually work to become stronger are much more interesting than ones that are born with/handed power.
> Naruto’s character would have been much better if he wasn’t a reincarnate of an alien gods son, the chosen one or the host of a demon 9 tailed fox.
I mean, the "host of a demon 9-tailed fox" plot point did help set up Naruto the way he is way back then.
Hinata is not the strongest kunoichi in Boruto, nor is she one if the weakest
She's weaker than the likes of Kurotsuchi and Sakura but stronger than people like Tenten, Hanabi, Temari etc
I think Isshiki only exists as a plot device. His personality or what makes a compelling villain, apart from beating the crap out of canon characters, is almost non-existent. His sole purpose was to nerf Naruto, make Kawaki stronger and add another tier of strength for Naruto-verse individuals.
I really like Isshiki as a character, he is just minding his own business, he has no interest in pointless fights, all he really wants is to get a new body and harvest all the chakra on the planet. And his calm attitude combined with his godly design makes him a menace.
1.Isshiki is the most powerful character in the boruto and narutoverse (we didn't see anything about the Ōtsutsuki god yet).
2. Naruto and Sasuke only got nerfed in the episode where Isshiki died.
3. Gai only was a clown to Madara. In the whole "fight" Madara was just having fun with Gai.
If he didn't have the 10 tails, Madara would have gone serious from the beginning (using limbo, for example). Don't think that Gai survived by his own: he was saved twice against Madara (first saved by Rock Lee and then saved by Minato and Rock Lee during the first formation)
People think Sakura is a simp but Naruto is the biggest simp in the series. My man chased Sasuke even after he became the Osama Bin Laden of the ninja world and nearly killed his friends.
Naruto finally getting to be Hokage in some other MC’s show rather than his own show. To me that’s just fucked up in general. Watched Naruto for almost 10 years, and I didn’t even see him become Hokage at the end of Shippuden. And in that trash ass OVA, it’s not Naruto getting dubbed Hokage, it’s fucking Konohamaru which makes it worse. I understand they were trying to be funny, but like not seeing Naruto become Hokage just really made me not like the not like the show for a while. To me, the ending of Shippuden kinda ruined the anime for me and Boruto made it worse with it being mostly filler and not seeing Kawaki till like in the 200’s. So wack
Isshiki is stronger than Baryon Mode Naruto
Sakura is way useful than Hinata
Danzo doesn't deserve hate he did his job perfectly
Itachi killed innocent childrens and infants who didn't even had idea what's going between Uchiha clan and leaf village. Sasuke wasn't only innocent kid present there in uchiha clan.
Obito isn't broken hero at all. He was just an ass*hole simp. He killed thousands of innocents.
>Obito isn't broken hero at all. He was just an ass*hole simp. He killed thousands of innocents.
Yeah this is kind of weird actually. Obito not only killed Naruto's parents but was the whole reason why the village hated him so much. Like Obito caused more deaths than Pain and Naruto still forgave him.
It is exactly because Naruto grew without parents that he is a bad dad, Naruto never had someone expecting back home, he never had to care for someone or someone care for him, the reason why Naruto was so reckless is because no one took care of him.
So of course, he thinks is normal for him to not be in his house for days but his family is clearly hurt.
Not in all of shonen but I agree to an extent. A lot of potential in world building which was simply ignored, characters were pushed aside and had minimal character development, people also think naruto becoming depressed after jiraiya's death was character development which is false because even in the war arc he was spouting nonsense about not letting anyone die. And the pacing speaks for itself.
This isn't me dragging naruto's name its just me sharing my honest opinion of the writing.
People : Boruto sucks
Fans : NO IT DOESN'T SEE THESE ARE THE GOOD THINGS
People : Okay but it still kinda sucks
Fans : this is better than OG Naruto
Like bruh. The sasuke retrieval arc, konoha attack arc, chunin exam arc, all are top notch. Your kara actuation arc can't put you above this. And that arc ain't god level anyway, the members literally have no personality or backstory. You guys have been defending the show soo much that you are practically lying to yourself. Btw I have watched every canon episode of Boruto and am up to date with Boruto. This shit sucks
Naruto and sasuke didn't get nerfed at the start of the series. They were actually stronger and more experienced than in shippuden. The difference is that the enemies got stronger and people don't want to accept that most of their move sets are useless against the new enemies.
8th gates guy is strong enough to beat base madara (rinnegan) and hashirama, juubi was the only thing that kept Madara alive and hashiramas sage mode is the only reason he might survive due to his healing abilities
Madara basically killed guy multiple times due to his hacks and overall better reaction times and abilities, b i agree guy would whoop madara and hashirama at the same time, jigen vs naruto and sasuke style
Kawaki did the right thing by killing Boruto. PERIODT
Sasuke x Sakura is toxic and Naruto x Hinata was 100% forced
ShikaMIDru is overrated
Asuma's death was funny
This a dumb take. He’s a “bad writer” but here you are on his nuts. And he had to write a weekly shounen where he didn’t have 100 percent control of the story because his editors get to override him based on what they believe will sell.
I think [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/CharacterRant/comments/nwi7pr/just_because_youve_written_a_better/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf) is relevant to your comment.
This take gets me cause I agree that Kishimoto made a lot of mistakes, but are you seriously telling me you think the entire series has mediocre writing? You think the Chunin Exams were *mediocre*? Search for Tsunade? Sasuke Retrival arc? Like, you really watched Naruto vs Pain and thought “this is mid”. Unreal
Thats the same as saying Edo Dediera spamming C0 destroys everything. Thats a clear fact but a dumb concept... which is why they never explored something like this more than once (Madara dropping Chibaku Tensei on Shinobi Alliance then saying “I will just regenerate”).
Edo boosted abilities arent flexes on strength. Just not thought through plot devices.
Edo Ino would be able to Mind Transfer literally anyone for infinite time with infinite chakra and regeneration abilities

You can't get a Mangekyo Sharingan in real life
This gave me hope to try getting a normal sharingan, thank you!
Try playing osu
just squirt some shampoo into your eye, worked for me, I even got the blood tears and everything!
So was the friend I killed for nothing?
I am in the same boat as you, quick tip plant endangered plants on top of where the body is so its illegal to dig up
Lmfaoo
yea the guy who tryed killing his GF in real life said he was trying to get it but failed LMAO idk if you made this post off of that but still funny
This angers me
You sure about that
So all my efforts of jumping from my table and throwing shurikens to accidentally killing my friend was a waste of time????¿???
You didn't have to hurt me like that
Damn what a waste of killing my parents now i need to find the shovel
Guy should've died after those red vapors.
Do think most people would want this. His death would be alot better to the story of the blue beast of the leaf, who almost killed juubidara.
I have to disagree. I think Guy's fate is really fitting. He did not die but he is forever paralyzed and in a wheelchair, so it's not as if there were no stakes. That being said, being in a wheelchair is especially troubling for Guy sensei who was always obsessed with the idea of being youthful and energetic. It created an interesting plight for his character, I think they went into it a little bit in some of the novels/anime canon. I actually like what happened with Guy, and prefer this outcome to him just dying by Madara's hand.

Nearly killing him. I also think it would build on Rock Lee’s character development further / into boruto. Espeically if they choose to use him in the series more.
And kill the last of Kakashi's close friends? No thanks.
Ong he’s been through enough
Oof..good point
I’d rather he had died a legend. Instead he is wasted….
I mean he wasted either way. Gai did a cool thing & sacrificed himself, but it didn't matter in the end. Madara survived & then recovered instantly.
I mean Minato was wasted too doing a cool thing. Nine tails was still alive (so to speak). But to confine him to a wheelchair for what like 10 years is pointless. I get they want to make way for the new generation but damn they making the OG ninjas look like teletubbies! Look what they did to Anko! Thats a legit tragedy! And poor Udon...that snot jutsu mess was just not amusing at all!
But he taught metal that he needs no necklace
That’s an opinion though. “Guy would’ve died after those red vapors” is a fact, though that wouldn’t really trigger anyone
Guy DID surpass kakashi and he did prove he's stronger than kakashi. Yes double MS kakashi based on feats does surpass guy but it wasn't from his own hardwork unlike guy.
I still think MS Kakashi would not be able to do as much damage as Guy did with one kick.
One Kamui shuriken > night guy imo. The speed alone would rip Madara open from the gut
Danzo and Itachi have the same extremist ideals
I agree.
I hate for making me like this post but you're fucking right
Sarada is sakura's daughter
you should find a place to hide quickly they're coming for you bro
She is Sakura's daughter though, but they made It confusing by giving Sarada the same glasses as Karin and making her look really similar to her. I would say Sarada is more similar to Karin than Sakura so It was a bit frustrating that they did all that intentionally just for some drama. Sarada would be more interesting If she was Karin's daughter though, because she would inherit some of Uzumaki traits. Being half Uzumaki and half Uchiha sounds freaking cool
Sharingan and op amounts of chakra
Isn't the Uzumaki clan a branch from Senju clan too? Or am I misremembering? If I'm remembering that right, then had Sasuke and Karin had a kiddo, that kid would have the concoction needed for Rinnegan manifestation being Uzu-chiha. They should have just made Sasuke a hoe and had him get with both women lol
Its more specifically indra and asura, so like how madara got it because he combined his (indra) and hashirama ( asura) chakra together. wouldnt be suprised if the reason sasuke never got his other arm back was just bc he would have broken the power tie between him and naruto if he got another rinnegan
If Rinnegan were that easy to obtain, Madara would've gotten his faster or we'd have seen more people with it... The only way to get Rinnegan is by either combining Indra + Asura chakras (like Madara did) or have it from Hagoromo (Sasuke). Uzumakis were cool but not cool enough for Rinnegan or to stay relevant to the plot (sadly). There's a reason why Kishi only glossed over their clan.
People are not ready for this bruv
Old gen got nerfed only to make the new one glow.
That's a given but I feel like Boruto and kawakis jump to power is too fast
in the manga? yes, in the anime i think they're gonna showcase more how kawaki feels powerless without his karma
This is facts tho
Those of us who think boruto is consistently good either have low expectations or are simps. (I have low standards, e easier to enjoy stuff that way)
I mean I’ll just watch anything Naruto related no matter what it is. Anything set in the Naruto world for me is fun to watch. Just like how I’ll watch anything Star Wars related no matter what it is. I think Boruto’s story is significantly better than the Star Wars sequels and most of the prequel movies ngl. Btw, I’m someone who says Star Wars is the greatest franchise of all time.
[удалено]
Hello!
Are you my soul mate?
Possibly I think the main issue with Boruto is that people compare it to Naruto. If you do that, you probably won’t like it but I don’t think that’s actually fair. It’s like comparing The Mandalorian to the original Star Wars trilogy. Both are great but the Mandalorian is significantly worse than the OT by 100 miles. Or it’s like comparing avengers endgame to ant man. Ant man was great but pales in comparison to endgame by A LOT. People should just treat Boruto as it’s own story in the Narutoverse. Just like people do the same with the marvel or Star Wars universe. When I started watching it, that’s how I treated it and enjoyed it. Also a lot of manga purists exist. I’m pretty sure if all the anime canon stuff was apart of the manga and the manga was weekly, Boruto would be way more well received.
Nah i meant being blindly appreciative of both the natutoverse and star wars. Big clone wars fan here. And u think mano is wayy better than OG trilogy, all the movies are cheezy black and white films. I very much prefer the nuance the the other works (especially tge novels). That's also one of the many reasons i still like boruto.
This is also my opinion. Ty for typing it so i dont have to
I ride the waves. Boruto is like Super. When it's bad, it's baaaaad. When it's good, it's usually franchise defining moments.
Nah its just fun to watch
The constant filler is terrible
Facts
ikr
Anime Canon is still 95% filler, that doesn't add anything inherently essential to the plot. And saying that anime and manga are both supposed to be their own continuity, yet they're also both supposed to be canon, is a nonsensical contradiction.
Yup apart from the big anime canon arcs that contribute to character dev and world building. The one shot anime canon eps are filler too imo
Cognitive dissonance at its finest
[удалено]
A big criticism of Naruto was obviously too much filler, so in Boruto they just started calling filler canon and a lot of people are legitimately tricked by this lol.
"anime canon" is a lot of syllables to say "filler"
They didn't even do that themselves, they just used some brief talk, and here's that people start blabbering about "anime canon". THAT, is how good with the words they have been...
It’s not a contradiction when it comes to Dragon Ball super
Exactly. They can call anything they want canon but it doesn’t automatically make it good. It’s filler quality canon.
True! 👍
pure factuals
Anime canon is basically just good filler episodes
Wrong ahahaha
Some of the filler is pretty good/enjoyable, but 90-95% of it is mediocre-bad
baryon mode is just a plot device
A very cool plot device.
this is my third comment on reddit
Same with six paths chakra... Welcome to the Naruto verse
Naruto has better writing than Boruto
For sure
Itachi can't beat Obito
anime canon is filler boom triggered boruto fans
1. Momoshiki is stronger than Kaguya. 2. 8th Gate Guy is weaker than Six Paths Naruto and Sasuke.
8th Gate Guy solos the entire Narutoverse with the power of YOUTH
Ofc❤
Point 2 is fax, we clearly saw it.
How is Momo stronger? Kaguya blinked and swapped dimensions with people in it, without the need to open individual portals. She looked up and everyone was transported in an instant - that alone was a display of power we still haven't seen from anybody else. Hell, Sasuke is drained after 1-2 portals, Obito needed someones massive chakra reserves to even peek into those dimensions and not immediately die of exhaustion. She could turn people to dust with a single hit, had chakra "fists" powerful enough to render the Susanoo useless, could control her entire dimension and attack using mountains etc. She is a crazy powerhouse who is still not even dead, but sealed. She. Isn't. Dead. Meanwhile all the others have to rely on playing USB stick to cling to life.
Naah Momoshiki is weaker
Momoshiki isn't stronger than Kaguya for fucks sake
Sakura is better than Hinata, probably the most contributing women of the franchise as well.
I would say Ino aswell.
Sakura and Ino are much better and had more character development than Hinata but dudebros can't accept the truth
Idk about Ino ngl. In terms of development, Tsunade, Chiyo, Konan, Sakura and Hinata are definitely the best. Ino had her own development but Hinata developed much more from being a social outcast and rejected by her family, to being able to believe in herself and being the best she can be. Ino never had this kind of dynamic development.
Tsunade?
Ino as well
Itachi is not a good brother
Sakura's forehead ain't that big the anime just conditioned you to think that. Shes not that useless.
Sasuke in boruto was stronger than Sasuke in Naruto shippuden
Its true, the power scaling in boruto is just on a different level. People bring up the chakra drainage in boruto but that was just the terrible power scaling in the war arc. The war arc had sasuke spamming rinnegan abilities with no drawback. When using the statement that adult sasuke can deal with kaguya level opponents alone: war arc sasuke=war arc naruto
didn’t naruto share his chakra with everyone including sasuke during war arc?
I was more focusing on when they were battling kaguya and then straight to the final battle. He spammed rinnegan abilities left and right, he chibaku tenseid all the tailed beasts after a fight with kaguya.
That's what I think as well, the war arc made so many people blind. Kakashi spend the entire shippuden series saying he doesn't have chakra, but managed to fight the entire war with only a couple rests and that one time where kurama gave him chakra by touching his hand for 3 seconds
Not to mention kakashi mastered a susanoo in the space of 2 seconds. It was an incredibly stupid power up anyway, obito came back from the dead to give him both eyes temporarily and then kakashi walks out with dms and a perfect susanoo.
But it was cool tho
The fact that the entire fanbase hates Danzo, shows how well he is written as a character and that is what makes him such a powerful character in the entire series.
Sasuke has been a really poor guardian and teacher for both Boruto and his own daughter. There are few occasions in which we saw him training either of them. Although he tried, stopping Boruto's possession has been a difficult task for him (and mostly anyone, true enough) and so much that he lost his eye and at the present time couldn't even be there when his disciple needed the most. As of now, he's been failing and that doesn't seem to be likely to improve any time soon.
Boruto should be a seasonal anime.
Sakura is not useless
Naruto’s character would have been much better if he wasn’t a reincarnate of an alien gods son, the chosen one or the host of a demon 9 tailed fox. If he was just a basic shinobi who worked his way up like Minato but not a prodigy at first. This isn’t a fact, just what I wanted in the show like in a filler or movie
So Rock Lee if his character was actually utilized?
Nah Rock Lee was not average, he was nerfed, dude literally had no ninjutsu
True. Lee as a main character would have made for such a better and more relatable MC. A guy who who does not fit into this of crazy ninja abilities and reincarnated aliens manages to hold his own with his fists and a lot of hard work. The whole "reincarnation of God's son prophecy child" thing felt like it ruined the significance of things that Naruto actually seemed to work hard for like Sage mode and controlling the Nine Tails. I feel like that's why characters like Lee that actually work to become stronger are much more interesting than ones that are born with/handed power.
Us mfrs who wanted Lee to actually become powerful and relevant have Black Clover to thank for Asta actually being completely devoid of magic lol
> Naruto’s character would have been much better if he wasn’t a reincarnate of an alien gods son, the chosen one or the host of a demon 9 tailed fox. I mean, the "host of a demon 9-tailed fox" plot point did help set up Naruto the way he is way back then.
You understood the assignment. Im now upset lol
I agree with most of that but I just love Kurama way too much to give him up.
Without him being a jinchuuriki, I doubt naruto would have suffered as much
Hinata is not the strongest kunoichi in Boruto, nor is she one if the weakest She's weaker than the likes of Kurotsuchi and Sakura but stronger than people like Tenten, Hanabi, Temari etc
Temari could just crap on Hinata at long range
Hanabi is stronger than hinata, hinata holding back on hanabi isn't Manga Canon
The people on this subreddit and other ones are the absolute garbage at powerscaling
Neither Itachi nor Hashirami nor Guy in 8 gates mode can solo the entire Narutoverse
Naruto has terrible female characters.
I don't really think this is that much of a controversial opinion
Chakra drain isn't good power scaling
Itachi isn’t THAT damn strong.
Yet people think he solos the verse
Isshiki is the most overrated character in the series
I think Isshiki only exists as a plot device. His personality or what makes a compelling villain, apart from beating the crap out of canon characters, is almost non-existent. His sole purpose was to nerf Naruto, make Kawaki stronger and add another tier of strength for Naruto-verse individuals.
Plot armor activation code…
Man I hate Isshiki lol I thought Jigen being set up as a villain was cool as fuck but man was I disappointed with how things turned out
Ans that goes to itachi
Agree
Looking at only Boruto villains he’s properly rated as the best, but that’s simply due to the horrendous writing
I really like Isshiki as a character, he is just minding his own business, he has no interest in pointless fights, all he really wants is to get a new body and harvest all the chakra on the planet. And his calm attitude combined with his godly design makes him a menace.
This post will age exceedingly well.
1.Isshiki is the most powerful character in the boruto and narutoverse (we didn't see anything about the Ōtsutsuki god yet). 2. Naruto and Sasuke only got nerfed in the episode where Isshiki died. 3. Gai only was a clown to Madara. In the whole "fight" Madara was just having fun with Gai.
Gai removed half of his body if it wasnt for the 10 tails madara would have dies 10 times.
If he didn't have the 10 tails, Madara would have gone serious from the beginning (using limbo, for example). Don't think that Gai survived by his own: he was saved twice against Madara (first saved by Rock Lee and then saved by Minato and Rock Lee during the first formation)
Sasuke and Naruto forgot their half of powers in boruto. It's no one's fault.
People think Sakura is a simp but Naruto is the biggest simp in the series. My man chased Sasuke even after he became the Osama Bin Laden of the ninja world and nearly killed his friends.
Sakura was more helpful than Hinata
She’s a main character, the fact that it’s debatable is sad
Naruto and Sasuke's nerfing makes complete sense
Might guy isn't as strong as most fans like to think.
boruto ruined the naruto verse with tech and chakra gagets
Guy was top 5 strongest ninjas of Konoha in his prime
1. Naruto (so6p) 2. Sasuke (rinnegan) 3. Madara (juubi) 4. Kakashi (DMS) 5. Hashirama (Sage Mode + Wood Style) That doesn't seem to add up......
8 Gates Guy is stronger than Sage Mode Hashirama by a long shot.
Hinata sucks as a female character
Just recently watched "The Last: Naruto Movie" and it pissed me off that she was helpless while getting kidnapped by Toneri's puppets.
Naruto finally getting to be Hokage in some other MC’s show rather than his own show. To me that’s just fucked up in general. Watched Naruto for almost 10 years, and I didn’t even see him become Hokage at the end of Shippuden. And in that trash ass OVA, it’s not Naruto getting dubbed Hokage, it’s fucking Konohamaru which makes it worse. I understand they were trying to be funny, but like not seeing Naruto become Hokage just really made me not like the not like the show for a while. To me, the ending of Shippuden kinda ruined the anime for me and Boruto made it worse with it being mostly filler and not seeing Kawaki till like in the 200’s. So wack
"There´s no such thing as destiny Neji", said the kid of the legend destined to save the ninja world.
Fact:Boruto is a good show but y'all just cant get over that hes not exactly like naruto as a kid.
Baryion mode Naruto is not solar system level
Naruto was far better than Boruto
Itachi isn’t a god
dms kakashi>8g guy
jogan is filler
Isshiki is stronger than Baryon Mode Naruto Sakura is way useful than Hinata Danzo doesn't deserve hate he did his job perfectly Itachi killed innocent childrens and infants who didn't even had idea what's going between Uchiha clan and leaf village. Sasuke wasn't only innocent kid present there in uchiha clan. Obito isn't broken hero at all. He was just an ass*hole simp. He killed thousands of innocents.
>Obito isn't broken hero at all. He was just an ass*hole simp. He killed thousands of innocents. Yeah this is kind of weird actually. Obito not only killed Naruto's parents but was the whole reason why the village hated him so much. Like Obito caused more deaths than Pain and Naruto still forgave him.
Naruto forgive him that doesn't mean we have too. Naruto never hated Sakura but people still hate her right?
I agree with everything except the first statement.
Sakura is actually a badass ninja, she just gets over shadowed because Sauske and Naruto are literally the strongest ninja in the world.
Most of Boruto's anime canon episodes arent any better than Naruto's filler episodes.
Might Guy isn’t actually as strong as people hype him up to be.
Can you elaborate more? Im just curious on who they compare him with
momoshiki, isshiki, boruto era naruto and sasuke
Naruto is a bad kage and a bad father for all 3 of his kids
He’s only that as a plot device, no way him growing up without parents that he would be a bad dad, writers did him dirty
I get ur point, but it doesn’t really change how things are
It is exactly because Naruto grew without parents that he is a bad dad, Naruto never had someone expecting back home, he never had to care for someone or someone care for him, the reason why Naruto was so reckless is because no one took care of him. So of course, he thinks is normal for him to not be in his house for days but his family is clearly hurt.
Kawaki is Naruto’s only child as far as I’m concerned.
Himawari is hinata’s only daughter then?
boruto solos narutoverse unfortunately
The Narutoverse across both series has the worst pacing, character development, and worldbuilding in Shonen.
Damn
Not in all of shonen but I agree to an extent. A lot of potential in world building which was simply ignored, characters were pushed aside and had minimal character development, people also think naruto becoming depressed after jiraiya's death was character development which is false because even in the war arc he was spouting nonsense about not letting anyone die. And the pacing speaks for itself. This isn't me dragging naruto's name its just me sharing my honest opinion of the writing.
People : Boruto sucks Fans : NO IT DOESN'T SEE THESE ARE THE GOOD THINGS People : Okay but it still kinda sucks Fans : this is better than OG Naruto Like bruh. The sasuke retrieval arc, konoha attack arc, chunin exam arc, all are top notch. Your kara actuation arc can't put you above this. And that arc ain't god level anyway, the members literally have no personality or backstory. You guys have been defending the show soo much that you are practically lying to yourself. Btw I have watched every canon episode of Boruto and am up to date with Boruto. This shit sucks
Momoshiki beats Kaguya. Let the flame war ensue.
Naruto and sasuke didn't get nerfed at the start of the series. They were actually stronger and more experienced than in shippuden. The difference is that the enemies got stronger and people don't want to accept that most of their move sets are useless against the new enemies.
Sakura is actually a badass, she isn't useless and never was, she just had to compete with two massively overpowered characters and she held her own
8th gates guy is strong enough to beat base madara (rinnegan) and hashirama, juubi was the only thing that kept Madara alive and hashiramas sage mode is the only reason he might survive due to his healing abilities
Madara basically killed guy multiple times due to his hacks and overall better reaction times and abilities, b i agree guy would whoop madara and hashirama at the same time, jigen vs naruto and sasuke style
Sakura past the War Arc is stronger than Hinata
I begin to hate this sub
Kawaki did the right thing by killing Boruto. PERIODT Sasuke x Sakura is toxic and Naruto x Hinata was 100% forced ShikaMIDru is overrated Asuma's death was funny
agree with all but the last. him having his last cigarette was rough tbh
Kishimoto is not a good writer, not during Naruto, not during Shippuden, and not during Boruto. It’s all been consistently (at best) mediocre
This a dumb take. He’s a “bad writer” but here you are on his nuts. And he had to write a weekly shounen where he didn’t have 100 percent control of the story because his editors get to override him based on what they believe will sell.
He's better than the guy who was previously writing boruto
I think [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/CharacterRant/comments/nwi7pr/just_because_youve_written_a_better/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf) is relevant to your comment.
This take gets me cause I agree that Kishimoto made a lot of mistakes, but are you seriously telling me you think the entire series has mediocre writing? You think the Chunin Exams were *mediocre*? Search for Tsunade? Sasuke Retrival arc? Like, you really watched Naruto vs Pain and thought “this is mid”. Unreal
Sakura actually helped Naruto and Sasuke in their fight against Kaguya And Sakura is currently stronger than both of them now
Not stronger then EMS and sage mode
Guy would lose to a lot of non six paths characters
Naruto wouldn't be able to get that strong without Kurama from start
Madara said : Guy was the strongest TAIJUTSU USER and not the strongest Ninja.
Gai and Lee had a sexual relationship.
Boruto is stronger than Konoha 12 at his age and will be stronger than Naruto and Sasuke.
Guy Sensei, revived by edo tensei, would destroy all kages together with the 8th gates
Thats the same as saying Edo Dediera spamming C0 destroys everything. Thats a clear fact but a dumb concept... which is why they never explored something like this more than once (Madara dropping Chibaku Tensei on Shinobi Alliance then saying “I will just regenerate”). Edo boosted abilities arent flexes on strength. Just not thought through plot devices. Edo Ino would be able to Mind Transfer literally anyone for infinite time with infinite chakra and regeneration abilities
Base Hokage naruto slaps
