Kishimoto's kind of smart.

[rollin]

Of course he's smart he's a popular Japanese mangaka why the **** does he need any one one this sites approval
And I agree about the yin yang theme he uses
I could make a whole thread about it

Lee and Neji, Obito and Kakashi, etc. Some might say it's a bit repetitive, but it makes sense if you take Madara's quote into consideration

The whole Naruto world functions on Yin and Yang. It would make less sense if there weren't as many parallels tbh. Kishi's pretty damn smart

Actually our world too works on that function.

But as you can see , the Yin has a small piece of Darkness inside of it so I guess the darkness in naruto was growing up a jinjuriki and all his orphan struggles and Sasuke s yang is mostly darkness with a small piece of light since he has a dark story but the will of fire still burns inside of him to be good

nice explanation. i second this

You mean he is kinda repetitive.

You mean he is kinda repetitive.

Not really, do you not see that that was basically the cycle of "hatred"? Uchihas treasured love so much that it made them evil, thats the little white dot in ying, the purpose of sasuke and naruto is to end that cycle, darkness and light come to get to stop that consistency of "yang/ying" and everything becomes a whole.

What he's saying is that the world is about that, and it'l never stop unless they finally merge and work together to stop being different, and stop the repetitiveness.

Other than Sakura/ Hinata, A/ Bee and Nagato/ Yahiko, I agree with you.

The white means Yang and Black means Yin dude.

Yahiko was a more serious and upfront version of Nagato, only after his death did Nagato became more bold.
Sakura is a cheerful girl and hyper and not shy, (knows naruto), Hinata is cheerful, shy and no as upfront as sakura (knows naruto). As for A and B, A is more serious, more dark and less cheerful than B, B is always adding exciting things to what he does. While a is always serious about everything.

I'm not sure how is Sakura supposed to be light while Hinata is dark. A lot of your examples makes no sense.

The Yin and Yang and parallels of the series are Naruto/Sasuke, Harishma/Madara, Jiraiya/Orochimaru. It doesn't mean that any rivalry is automatically supposed to be a parallel, or a yin/yang. That wouldn't make sense.

I do agree that Kishimoto is a smart writer but not for the same reasons apparently.

Comparing Yin and Yang is like comparing light and dark. Those 3 duos do not represent light and dark, but simply have different personalities. I still don't think they fit in as well as the others.

Think about it, light and darkness are both elements, just executed differently. Sakura and Hinata both have the same drive, but have diffferent personalities, sakura was shown to be jealous of hinata's chest(meaning theres social/internal connection). And both these characters are love interests of both the main heroes. Its not an accident, light and darkness doesnt necesarily mean that the opposing forces have to be evil or good. They just have the same drive. Sakura longs for sasuke's attention, hinata longs for naruto's attention, sakura isnt scared or afraid of approaching sasuke about how she feels. Hinata is scared of approaching naruto because of her self esteem, see where this is going? they both have the same drive, but have a different route of getting to their goal, eventually they both develop these traits the opposite have.

Sakura needs to get a bit of motivation from hinata's drive (which she did recently when she went to save sasuke instead of relying on naruto to do the work), while hinata needs the boldness and more convidence that sakura has. Hinata's conquering her fear slowly because she also saved naruto by wake up slapping him and they had their little hand holding scene as well.

Just like how sasuke's drive is motivated by the fact that he was robed of "love", took a more negative route to find out that love got him where he's at, same thing as why naruto's motivated by not having love. But through self encouragement (sasuke lacked because he was driven by itachi's say and orochimaru's bait) and a bit of love from selected few he put in his circle he learned that it was love thats gotten him to where he's at.

Darkness and light doesnt necesarily "good or evil", They're both an element and a force of nature that coexist because they're similar, there is a reason why yang has a hint of ying in it, vice versa.

This image is a perfect example of that, the tiny opposing circles in each side means that each side has a bit of both force in it, but both dont have "enough" to function properly alone. Only together can they function properly and prosper.
