I'd say the plot would have flowed better if he got beaten by Naruto and Sasuke to a pulp before he willing fuses with the mother figure thing. And Kishimoto would have been able to milk a few more episodes out of that fight as well...

I'm sure this has been mentioned numerous times already, but Naruto has seriously turned into the current day Drag-on Ball. The elevated chikara, the "unique" killer moves, the massive fights in barren land, etc. :facepalm:

I used to like both Dragon Ball and Naruto because they precisely weren't like that.

I'm not sure if you should be spoilering that, since it's manga plot.

While there are parallels to DB, I wouldn't necessarily call that a bad thing. There's a reason it's still popular today. Jokes about ki-charging and "beat up the good guy until he unlocks a new power" are prevalent, but it's the storylines and characters that keep DB popular even today. I don't see it as a detriment to the Naruto plots since the story is still captivating.

Personally, I think this "war" has dragged on way too long. It's nice to see it progress a bit faster than we're used to.

anyone still watching this?

the last few episodes werent toooo bad.. a little more action and less flashback fillers...

watching no, reading the manga yes

i find that theres so many plot twists and things going on in the manga right now that im often left confused as to what is happening. i usually have to read the past chapters to make sense of everything

the last arc has just been a pile of mindfuck and wtf moments

Manga is getting really dumb

almost been a year since i last read it...i imagine they're still wasting time

he really did not understand what made dragon ball awesome

LOL at latest chapter :lawl: here we go againnnnn

At least it looks like there's no foreplay for the upcoming stuff.

Right?


:pokerface:

Looks like Naruto will finally end after this fight :badpokerface:

50 chapters later

only 5 chapters left

Feels like they are dragging the ending too long for the manga. Hope another villain doesn't pop up after the current fight. Lol

Ugh, such cheesy dialogues.. :heckno:

?Naruto? Comic Ending ? Final Installment Of Best Selling Japanese Manga - Hollywood Life

manga was dragging a bit, but the anime is probably one of the best there is imo, sad news

hope kishi resurrects it down the road

Hard to believe that I've been following it for almost 10 years. Where has the time gone? :(

found this cool

Finally ended eh? About damned time! Maybe ill catch up now to see how it ends... should have ended years ago

shit, Naruto ended? I guess I should catch up! I left off when the big war broke out and guys like Zabuza were resurrected.

Naruto ends Nov.10th

its sad to see the manga end, but i agree that it should have ended a lot sooner. For me, the plot started to go downhill after the Invasion of Pain arc.

damnnn haven't watched Naruto since i was 13. nostalgia feels
no way i'm catching up on 6 years of Naruto :fuckthatshit: from what i've gathered, must've been absurdly superfluous
gotta see that ending tho

took me a 3 days to catch up on the manga

not too difficult dude
ahahah

Where did you end off with the anime?

Personally, the early "great war" stuff at the end was awesome. Just drawn out, like a lot of things in the series. Doesn't mean that it was bad.
