I just watched half of Naruto the last on the underanime app, English subs were done by a fan. The translation subs were 6.5/10 the person got he and she mixed but overall you can understand the story.
The animation was on high Naruto episode standard.
Now onto the whole thing. The movie was absolute garbage. I will tell you why and you can probably see it for yourself if you just google it and watch it.
The whole movie didn't feel like Naruto at all, it felt like the characters were used for the story but they were not their usual self.
The pacing of the story was very very slow. We just got dumb pointless things like Shikamaru drinking coffee or Naruto walking about. It basically showed a normal human's life and it felt very wierd because we saw usual things like sleeping, eating, talking and just thinking from Naruto and some other characters. It felt a little wierd because we are normally use to a different kind of story telling.
Hinata was being childish and stupid. She was being stubborn. When she started a conversation and Naruto asked what was wrong(because she kept on getting sad) she just kept saying nothing, don't worry which was frustrating.
She was also getting sad over how girls started liking him and it basically seemed like she was blaming Naruto for it.
I ONLY WATCHED HALF OF IT BECAUSE IT WAS SO BAD, here are the most retarded things I saw.
1.Hinata has byakugan and walked into a spider's web.
2.Hinata was hanging onto a scarf so she wouldn't fall from a building.
3.Hinata fell down on a 2 meter jump from roofs when she was on the retrieve mission.
The reason I say the building and the falling is dumb is because REMEMBER ninjas can walk on walls,roofs and WATER. Naruto can even FLY!
4.NARUTO WALKED into a spider web too and fell down and got hurt to the point he needed medicine... but he survived the great ninja war against gods.
5. Naruto is suppose to be the second fastest after Ameno blitz gg but he missed like 30 punches and couldn't even catch Toneri at the start.
Overall I think the whole movie was an insult to Lord Madara, Lord Sasuke, Pain, Kaguya and even Obito. Why? Because Naruto was able to fight these guys/gals and survive yet he found it hard to punch some puppets.
I like Hinata's character but for some reason in THIS movie she was portrayed as a weak girl who needed Naruto 24/7 but remember SHE IS A NINJA.
Another thing I found annoying was that it took about a 2 minutes for Sakura,Shikamaru and Sai to defeat a giant crab with low intelligence and barley any strength. So Sakura can punch the ground and kill many juubi fodders but it takes 3 people a few minutes to defeat a crab?
I rate the movie 2/10. I say that it was on par with the ostrich filler episodes and Konoha's mums filler episode.
The best part was when we saw Lord Sasuke walking in the desert.
If you want to judge the movie, find it and see how bad it is. I will pray to something today that it gets nuked out of existence.
Thanks and desert steps solo
The review you gave is completely flawed and illogical and let me address some points you have pointed out:
1. First of all, the characters are not OOC. They are adults and they are completely different from parts 1 and 2. In other words, it is called maturation and they are not kids anymore.
2. Hinata was not childish or stupid. Nor was she stubborn. She was surprised when she saw Naruto wearing Kushina's scarf and she thought that some random girl gave it to him. Plus, she was fully aware of how popular Naruto was with girls.
3. In case you didn't realise, this was a romance story between Naruto and Hinata. I have no idea how can you call the spider web scene retarded, this scene can prove that Hinata can be almost as silly as Naruto at times and maybe she may have forgotten to activate the Byakugan, but this scene was when Naruto began to flirt and tease Hinata. The 2 meter jump thing, again this was supposed to be another one of those romantic moments between Naruto and Hinata.
4. The hanging on scarf thing was because, if you paid more attention, her ability to manipulate chakra was affected by Toneri's jutsu.
5. Naruto walking into spider-web was used as a comedic moment. And the fact that you call Naruto needing medicine when injured retarded, just shows of how idiotic can you be. Naruto may have godlike powers, but he is still a human being, and any human being can get hurt or even killed. Once again, this is supposed to be a NaruHina moment.
6. The reason why Naruto couldn't touch Toneri was because he didn't know of what Toneri was capable of but in the end he was able to solo Toneri with a punch.
7. Hinata was not a weak girl. She inherited Hamura's chakra, she 'rejected' Naruto and went with Toneri in order to save Hanabi and the world from destruction, she destroyed the Tensaigan with Naruto's help. Hell, she didn't hesitate to rip Hanabi's eyes out of Toneri's sockets.
That is all and if you don't like what I wrote, then there is no point in arguing with a biased moron like you.
