Isn't sasuke a major supporting character?

Neji and all of them are supporting characters, from what i remember.

Nah, Sasuke's the Deuteragonist. The alternate to the main character, the story can't truly progress without either of them.

TBH, it could have.
The only reason we care about Sasuke is because Naruto was constantly on his D.

If Naruto just let it go, we wouldn't give a **** about Sasuke.[SUB]

I think it could it focus more on naruto one true goal of becoming hokage and as long as sasuke not in konoha he said he won't become hokage

Uhm, that's most of the story after all... And if Naruto didn't obsess over Sasuke he'd never improve as much as he did. Most of his development came from that obsession after all, and either way, the story would pan over to Sasuke's goals, leaving a BIG hole in the story.


It'd pretty much be two different series put into one.

according to the wsj magazine it still gets rated the same as it always has
i liked all of naruto so far
maybe its because i started reading it when the last chapter was around 500
i watched the anime around naruto and sasuke at vote and stopped a few years then read the whole manga

Technically after Itachi turned out to be a good guy. I would say Shippuden made Naruto fall off

Naruto wanting Sasuke back was tolerable during Part 1.
But when he wanted him back in Part 2, that shit became annoying asf.

Naruto should of just let him go.
Even if Konoha would of sent Ninjas to kill Sasuke, Sasuke has the plot to prevent him from dying.

Sasuke was out training and getting stronger while Naruto was on his D about coming back to the village. Like, dude, hop off his nuts. He doesn't have to come back to Konoha if he doesn't want to.

That's what killed Naruto's character for me.[SUB]

They should've called it konoha not naruto tho but I don't think sasuke help naruto growth that much it like slowed it down like naruto went with jiraiya for two and a half years he goes from part one low-chunin level to low-jonin to around mid-chunin

Edit: jonin level only cause of kyuubi

Word, I agree with you on that. xD But you know Naruto's Nindo... Which made things so much harder.

For me the quality of the Manga went substantially downhill at chapter 664 imho. Good or bad I can't say... Just went substantially downhill at 664.... Imho.

when Neji became a cheerleader
in retrospect, when gai & kakashi even appeared in part 2 - the gimmicked plot crutches never ceased
when sakura used sleep bombs
when hinata interfered w/ Pein, naruto got back up & made the destiny happen(this is not a compliment, I assure u)
after Jiraiya was awesome, bigger than the manga itself, defined ''shinobi'', then died on the spot

That's the thing. He didn't have to bring him back.
Sasuke was going to eventually go to Konoha to attack the village anyway.

Naruto could of met up with him there and fought him.
At least that's how I would of wrote the story.[SUB]

I would've wrote it as sasuke being final pillar like instead of obsessing over him realize he's gone and naruto must protect his home and show everyone he's a hero instead of at the pain arc

Not really. Kakashi pushed his Rs training and enproved his clone game. Jman's death and pain's imminent attack pushed sm.
You can say sasuke forced him to get kcm but he had to do it sooner or later since that was both jman and minato's purpose.

All sasuke did in part 2 was give him asthma attacks
