I'd argue Naruto is still Naruto. The manga increasingly revolving around Sasuke is pretty valid concern of course, but it hasn't fallen into Bleach's particular rut. A character like Shikamaru can still win without requiring Naruto to come in and save him. Whereas an equivalent character in Bleach like Ishida isn't allowed to win even with a partner aiding him.

And the dual focus of Sasuke and Naruto might become a more interesting dynamic since it's not quite as ridiculously focused on JUST Sasuke now. Inevitably Bleach is about Ichigo in the end and all characters exist to propel him forward.

Haha. Naruto becoming a haremtastic, pheromone-filled anime like Asu no Yoichi is fun!

(ok, don't throw tomatoes at me, i'm being sarcastic! xD)

Seriously? Revive everyone? Like he's a white mage! This was the dumbest shit ever. It's like he was writing and realized, oh shit... I might still need some of these characters I KILLED OFF. How fuckin stupid. Bring Sasuke back, have the big final battle, and end the series.

I agree, totally.

Seconded. That plot twist sort of ruined the entire atmosphere created by the last thirty chapters or so.

I'm just happy the pain arc is over with... Pain was a wee bit to emo for me.

That's like the understatement of the year.

With Kakashi dead, no one would buy the manga, so revival is the only option. Also it teaches children that your actions don't have real world consequences and they can do whatever they want in life as long as they remember to backup their save files.

It is quite lame to make some big shitty deal about Kakashi death then revive him. At least when DBZ did stuff like that they just had the dead characters go "lol i gots a halo" and start doing the same things they did when they were alive.

i dont think that he made that big of a deal when kakashi died. and im glad he is revived because i think he deserves a better death

Well, all he gets now is a lame death when
fighting Sasuke, to set things up for Naruto.

Drextan · « **Reply #333 on:** May 30, 2009, 08:31:14 AM »

Indeed, it was lame...

But, I wonder what'll happen between Naruto and Hinata now...

Sasuke looks like he was living in style.

Indeed. Where can I buy a big poofy couch pillow like that? If I had a couch like that I'd invite people over to my house three or four times a day just so they could see the visual of me plopping down on it all chillax style.

its gonna end with sasuke realizing his error and becoming shizune to naruto as hokage

Pzc · « **Reply #337 on:** June 01, 2009, 02:44:59 PM »

I just recalled that one-eyed evil Konoha dude
that was scheming to take control as hokage
during the fighting. I wonder what happened to
him and if he's at it still.

He'll send Sai to assassinate Naruto but then at the last second Sai is gonna be hit with one of those psychological attacks that makes your manga face get all contorted as he starts to recall the strange phenomenon called "friendship".
