It really did ended on a bad note. Remember Naruto said that he wasn't going to take any shortcut? Yet the only reason why he surpassed Hokage is because of his special lineage.
Seriously? The pairing ruined Naruto?!
It's one of the things that ruined it.
Sorry but I can't see a single pairing ruining or even coming close to ruining a series unless the focus of the series IS the pairing like with Romance manga.
SS sends a bad moral message. How does it not help ruin the series? NH killed a beloved character. There are other things that ruined this series but this is one of them.
Depends on how you interpret it for SS. In one way you can praise Sakura's love that never wavered no matter how far down Sasuke fell into darkness. Another way you could view it as pathetic that she stuck to a guy that wanted to kill her.
Shikamaru should have been the one who died since he actually got some development in Part 2, unlike Neji. When he died I wasn't sad, just annoyed. I know some people that just didn't care because he was irrevelant for so long.
no. I'll still ship NH for what it's worth, but that doesn't change the fact that it's really badly done .
I meant in the ending when you look at the perspective, pairing were used nothing more but fanservice, we've never seen such buildup between Naruto and Hinata, hinata was pretty much irrelevant back then, and Kishimoto completely forgot about the time Hinata stood up for Naruto almost dying. Why couldn't that be the "cupid" moment. She had literally confessed her love to him yet Naruto still didn't get it.
Well alot of people seem to forget or not care about him cause he was long forgotten plus we've always said his death wasn't an impact yet surprisingly Neji was somehow earned in top spot.
That's actually impressive for him, considering how little attention he got in part 2
I'm not sure if that's a good thing or bad thing considering his death was BS, I'm not sure if that's going to make Kishi overlook the error and realize the mistake by killing him off because of popularity, I wonder if he's going to do anything good or justice to Neji character in the future but I highly doubted it.
Who gives a shit what this makes Kishi thinks ? It's not like he'll be writing any worth while manga anytime soon. Besides, I bet his next manga, whenever or whatever it may be, willf lop, so he;ll end up running back to the Naruto series in order to make easy money, as he would already have a following there. honestly though, making one shot chapters or "in between" arcs wouldn't be such a bad idea
I'm actually pretty ok with this list. It has a lot of people I've seen through various things and I was like WTF. Good to see though that Neji was real high on that list too.
It's funny. Neji is my favorite character and I really did cheer for Naru/Hina, but the fact they killed Neji for it just saddens me to no end....
I wish he'd fix/redeem him but he won't. Kishi doesn't really care which is upsetting.
