Naruto hasn't copied anything from DBZ and is nothing like DBZ!

People keep saying that Kishi is copying DBZ (especially as of late with the whole alien possibility). They also say that the current battles don't have tactic and strategy.

Answer these questions:

1. Did Akira Toriyama get a patent on aliens? Is he the only one that can have them?

2. Did Toriyama get a patent on power? Is every series that has powerful characters copying DBZ now?

3. In the Guy vs. Madara fight, was it not tactic and strategy for Minato to properly analyze the range of the truth seeking balls and come up with an effective strategy to take them away from Madara?

4. Was it also not tactical for Sasuke to analyze Madara's limbo and deduce the jutsu's weaknesses and ways to counter it (such as the fact that the shadows can only stay out for a limited amount of time, or the fact that the 6 paths chakara can affect the shadows, or the fact that Madara suffers any wounds that are dealt to the shadows)?

5. In the battle against the juubi, was it not a tactical strategy from Shikaku to have Naruto give the whole alliance chakara cloaks and then have the ino-shika-cho clans to use the chakara enhancement to bind the juubi?! Was it also not a good strategy to cleverly devise a strategy to use all the villages' jutsus to make a concrete prison for the juubi?!

6. Is hiding in the bushes and throwing knives the only way to have tactic and strategy?

You people are obviously just not looking hard enough for the tactic in these battles!

I don't see how Naruto has ripped DBZ at all. Just people over-reacting.

Are you referring to the bijuu son-goku? Ok, that is a subtle reference to DBZ, but that is small and insignificant. I am talking about the general picture (like the battles and the plot).

I don't think copied would be the right term, more like influenced.

Oh really? I guess kcm doesnt look like super saiyan. Minato wasnt based of bardock and goku. Energy blast battles. Etc etc etc but kishi does look like hes about to rip off toriko ill make a thread on it.

When was the first time that you thought of becoming a mangaka and why?

At some point between second and fourth grade I got into Akira Toriyama Sensei’s Dr. Slump anime and Dragon Ball manga. I loved his characters. I was especially attached to Dr. Slump’s Arale and Dragon Ball’s Gout. Also, his art really appealed to me. There was something about his cartoony drawing style that felt right, more so than realistic drawings. I thought to myself, I wanted to become like Toriyama Sensei.

I'm not saying Naruto flat out copied DBZ as there are clear distinctions, but he really liked the style of the series and wanted something similar. It's more of an influence if you ask me.

Copy is a harsh word. Some scenes might be copied. But the whole manga? No way. Inspired by DBZ, yes

Dbz was a huge inspiration for Naruto. They're going to be similar.

And if we can't agree that bijuu dama is like something you'd see in DBZ, well then you're just in denial.

Oh yes, because DBZ has an absolute patent on golden auras. Never mind about super sonic from the sonic series or any other series that have golden auras. It all belongs to DBZ.

Minato is nothing like Bardock. They are only similar in that they are the father of the main character and they both had visions of their son taking down a major villain. Their powers are different. Their personalities are different. Naruto loves his father where as Goku never even met (or even heard of Bardock). I could go on and on about that.

Also, apparently Toriyama patented energy blasts too huh? Because no other anime or series in general has ever used energy before! It was all Toriyama's idea.

P.S: KCM doesn't look that much like super sayian to me at all.
