can you just talk about naruto (the show) i wanna hear your thoughts on whatever
OOOO OKAY!!!!! IF YOU INSIST!!! 
my thoughts are kinda messy bc im just spouting it out as it comes to me, so sorry in advance for the disorganization and large bodies of text lol
naruto... as a concept is SO FUN! the worldbuilding is so depressing and sexy and i feel like theres so MUCH you can do with that. i love the concept of these monsters being sealed inside people, i love the clans, i love the ninjas, and the fights when they’re emotional and have weight behind them... I LOVE THAT LOVE IS A CENTRAL THEME TO THIS SHOW!!!!!!! i don’t really watch anime so i didnt expect to like it as much as i did, BUT I TOTALLY DID!!!! i finished that shit in like 3 months, granted i skipped a lot of filler and most of the war arc but STILL
part 1 is so fun. i think it’s super tight, like narratively, out of all of naruto. you can tell where kishi wanted to take the story. the characters are all introduced in fun and exciting ways. the chuunin exams arc is my favorite out of part 1, then land of waves, introduction arc, and of course vote 1 packs such a serious punch i was in tears when i first watched it. my major complaints is that there wasn’t enough team bonding for team 7 imo, not enough development for any of the girls obviously, the smaller countries who can’t afford ninjas being controlled by gangs, corrupt business men, etc. being dropped was a huge mistake imo because that would’ve led to some more interesting storylines/expansion of the worldbuilding that i think remains untapped. also the hyuga clan plotline i will always be bitter about... they owned slaves.... i think sasuke should’ve left the village knowing the village was behind what happened ot his family... maybe. i also think danzo should’ve been introduced in part 1 considering he’s supposed to be one of the big bads in part 2... 
shippuden is fun! i love the akatsuki, i think an organization striving for peace but getting murked up by people who have conflicting goals and morality, because i can see that happening irl. ( i wouldn’t trust kishi to write this given his nationalism problem tho) THE FIRST SASUKE SCENE WE GET IS SO GOOD IT WAS BUILDING AND BUILDING AND WHEN IT HAPPENED I WAS LIKE FUUUUCK YES SASUKE!!!!! part 2 definitely should’ve had more sasuke in it, like even if im remaining unbiased, we shouldve gotten more time with him under orochimaru’s eye to SEE the shit he goes through. i think sai was an interesting addition to the group. at first i found him fun bc i love mean bitches, and i think his backstory with root was interesting and depressing af. im kinda mad that just kinda got dropped? considering it was a big reveal? WHICH my main thing is danzo shouldve been a villain for MUCH LONGER THAN HE WAS!!! a major complaint i’ll have until the end of time
umm continuing on. the pein arc? perfect. love it. UNTIL THE VERY END WHERE PEIN REVIVED EVERYONE. my number one complaint with naruto as a show and as a character is that naruto wins every. damn. time. by talking the villains into the good side. pein is a person whos had his parents killed in front of him and his best friend killed in front of him.. and has been stewing in his hate for years and changes his mind bc.. what?? a kid asked him too? same goes for konan. she was so underutilized afterwards so kishi just killed her off bc he didnt know what to do with her lol. boring.
i love team taka. one of the best teams in the entire show and i wish they had more time together doing crazy shit and being rebels with a cause lol. i wish each individual member was developed more bc theyre such a fun contrast to team 7. 
the kage summit arc.... idr much tbh. i got kinda bored by all the talking but when sasuke showed up i was like OHHH SHIT!!!!!!! i think im gonna rewatch that soon
war arc was boring. wouldve preferred another world war with the hidden villages instead bc everything was brewing to that point. or a revolution. whatever
umm i think kishi making sasuke the ultimate big bad was a mistake and will forever be a mistake, because he literally had to turn sasuke into a crazy ninja devil in order to accomplish that. im not saying sasuke was perfect, but his idea of revolution was RIGHT. kishi didnt allow him to formulate a plan besides killing those responsible ( a good start) to killing everyone (eh) in order to make naruto look like the clearheaded one
my main issues with the series as a whole is the nationalism, misogyny, eugenics, classism, and issues of abuse/pedophilia being swept under the rug. if this was just a show about ninjas doing dumb ninja things then i wouldnt be so like.. crazy about it, but kishi chose to include those themes and not do anything to solve them. character wise i think naruto AND sasuke are both overpowered by the end. 
as a character naruto is like tied with sasuke as a favorite, i wont lie. im so endeared by him as soon as he came on screen and was being a little shit head, but the way kishi handles his character. UGH. naruto becoming friends with every bad guy ever, EVEN THE FOX DEMON HELL BENT ON DESTROYING HUMANITY AND KILLED HIS PARENTS, was too much for me. naruto’s flaws are never examined as flaws, his unhealthy coping mechanisms are treated fine, and it’s just... UGH. a big problem with naruto for me is he doesn’t change his goals, wants, etc. he wants to be hokage from his first appearance to his last! he wants to save the village and sasuke! but he never has to make hard choices because everything always works out for him! that’s the frustrating thing. also we’re told rather than shown his development. everyone says he’s so mature now, but we never really get to see that process which is a TOTAL BUMMER.  
umm... yeah. here are my thoughts. this is just word vomit at this point but these are the main issues and things i’ve loved about the series. a lot of the stuff i mentioned i disliked im fixing in one of my fics i havent posted yet so thats always fun lol

Ill tell u what I WANT. i would kill for lightning style anything since ive aways been a hoe for that shit. static shock no jutsu i wear socks and slide across the carpet then i zap u. im also a BIG fan of how extra deidaras explosion release jutsu is. if i could do something like that where its a fun little creative outlet and causes mass destruction itd b ideal. sais jutsu too like its basically the equivalent of the magic pencil in spongebob. doodlebob no jutsu. also evil meals no jutsu bc im a ninja chef on the side13) what ninjas would you want as your teammatesAll my obvious faves but imma highlight shino bc we r both bug loving bitches and shikamaru bc i would appreciate his ability to formulate brilliant strategies but also constantly make fun of him like “omg shikamaru your mind 🤯”14) which opening is your favoriteI answered this 1 already but ill just copy paste. In og naruto besides the obv choice of WE ARE FIGHTING DREAMERS i think opening 2 is still my fave cuz that song slaps. And shippuden openings 1, 4 and… 10. I havent even gotten that far but i have seen that op and its. rly something.15) which closing is your favoriteI mainly remember ending 1 from og naruto like its such a classic vibe and 12 mostly for the song. For shippuden i have several faves so far bc several of them r whack and it cracks me up. 6 bc sasunaru real, and 10 bc everyone is just @ the beach in swimwear for some reason. And then the one where the main chorus is just the word “bicycle” over and over primarily bc naruto and sakura actually complain about it in one of the omakes16) how long have you been into narutoI think its been 7 years but ive been quiet….Im ready to be annoying again now17) do you mostly watch or read narutowatch, ive only read a few volumes of the manga.18) favorite characterbitch i love so many. kakashi, sand sibs, naruto, yamato, deidara, sai, suigetsu, lee, itachi, hidan, shikamaru, tenten, shino…i could go on19) least favorite characteronce again, FUCK danzo. also i like do not care about konohamaru tbh. he gets too much screen time like pls im begging just give it to tenten instead.20) do you own any naruto merchi have a headband and i just got some prints and stuff. And because im me and idk how to save money Im boutta have more soon ;-)21) in the akatsuki what color would you paint your nails..matte black, for the aesthetic22) who would you want your partner to be in the akatsukideidara the original art hoe. & i think id get along with hidan. we r both annoying and a little dumb23) have you ever played any of the naruto video gamesnaruto ultimate ninja storm but idr which one. i miss it tho and i almost want to buy a game console so i can play it again24) weapon of choiceI have no skills with anything except knives so id prob keep it simple with kunai and shuriken.

And im now trying to recover from the one in shippuden where naruto and sasuke get their hands stuck together while on a mission. I cannot believe…..29) favorite arcI honestly forget a lot of the arcs from classic naruto but i liked the zabuza arc a lot actually. And the chuunin exams is just a classic. Then out of shippuden the kazekage rescue mission, tenchi bridge, akatsuki suppression mission, pain’s assault and thats abt as far as ive gotten into the series so far30) otpKotetsu and izumo. Also heres the tea: sasunaru is real. Ino and sakura r in love. Temari and shikamaru is like, the only valid canon ship. And kakashi has like 4 boyfriends.
