I remember watching Naruto a while back and remember dropping it for some reason, so I never really got to Shippuden. Of course, I’ll admit that I’m hypocritical for judging an anime that I never finished. With that being said, I don’t really get why Naruto fans exaggerate the series so much. In my eyes, it wasn’t necessarily bad, but it isn’t good either. There were many questionable writing decisions that didn’t sit right with me. In my opinion, Naruto is a good starter anime, but the more anime you watch, the more you realize how flawed Naruto actually was. That being said, what do you all think of Naruto?
Someone actually did (it’s called Naruto Kai), and I tried watching it, and it still somehow had bad pacing even with countless hours of runtime cut out. I peaced out after the bad guys told Sasuke to get in a sketchy barrel and he was like, “seems legit” so all the other kids who for some goddamn reason wanted him back had a bunch of extremely repetitive fights chasing him down.
