Manga would've ended a long time ago then.

Let's be real here.
The only reason the manga is the way it is, is due to obito and Kakashi. Every major events in naruto's life can be tied back to those two.

Is it just me or would Kishi have a better story if he revolved "Naruto" around Itachi, not that naruto wasnt good but i still think it would recieve alot of hype since it'd be about a badass reall nxgga. And yeah, he eventually "betrays" the village and goes rogue as a member of akatsuki.

And ofcourse no more asspulls! :D

So to clear it up its still basically the same storyline except its in itachi's point of view, but of course with a few changes so that his death wouldn't be too early or if anything itd be in the final episode of the series.

Anyone agree or am i just fapboy high?Zzz

No, although One Piece probably would have been better if it had revolved around Zoro and not some random, dildo farm boy who wanted to be "King of the Pirates!" -_-

Those two fodders aren't responsible for the manga being the way it is. It's Madara and Hashirama. Obito wouldn't even be alive if it weren't for Madara by the way.

I remember a thread from 2013 on this Batman forum about this where everyone agreed that Itachi would have been an infinitely better main character than Naruto.

Itachi already shits on Naruto as a character. Of course he would have been a better MC.

lol you got banned xD..

Itachi is a character defined primarily by proxy. Sasuke's memories of him, Obito telling Sasuke about him, Zetsu taunting Sasuke about Itachi, Danzo telling Sasuke about Itachi. I mean god, does Itachi ever define himself without someone else there to quarterback his backstory?

He did in the war arc to Naruto and Sasuke with his advice as well as Kisame in his backstory or somewhat during the fight with Sasuke and their flashbacks together.

Actually every major event in Naruto life could be tied back to Hagoromo or Kaguya

that would be like making one piece about akainu. id read it as long as the writer doesnt sugarcoat the bullshit, like he did with itachi originally.
