Is there anything we as a community could possibly do to have him fired because he’s not even trying to improve his art style. How can someone that’s worked with Kishimoto for so long have the audacity to draw characters in such a disgusting way. Kodachi’s scripting is punishment enough already but having to wait a month to see him intentionally slaughter characters is just too much.

Remember when he gave Sasuke curly hair for no reason at all? That alone should’ve been reason to get rid of him. But I’ll restate my question; Is there anything that we, as a community, could possibly do to get this guy banished from the series?

Or at the very least have him restricted from drawing characters in the manga. The SP anime character artists for Boruto are far more qualified for his job.

He draws Boruto right, he's deformed and looks like he suffers from some sort of disease. As for the others I totally agree.

If you want Ikemoto to get fired then Kodachi needs to go too. The man practically writes a shit story which has equivalent art. The only way I can see them getting fired is if Kishimoto returns to write a new Naruto manga or something.

I have no qualms about seeing Kodachi fired aside from him not having a job, of course. But Kodachi is trash.

He tries to draw Sasuke as good as he can now since the community did shit on Kodachi's twitter page because of the hair. We can actually voice our opinion but getting Ikemoto fired isn't a kind move either. First and foremost we need a better author unfortunately Kodachi isn't leaving anytime soon.

Change takes time. He has his own style and shouldn’t be fired just because it doesn’t look the same as kishimotos. I agree it’s not as good as I’d like it to be, but it has improved a lot since chapter 1

His best isn’t good enough and both, Kodachi and Ikemoto, need to be replaced at the exact same time. Like I’d said in the OP, whomever draws and animates the characters in the anime should be in charge of drawing the characters for the Manga.

I think the art is slowly improving.
It isnt at the naruto manga level yet though, but it gets better.

What i still dislike:

The faces of the new gen still look too broad or round.
Even for kids.

Sarada's outfit still doesnt fit her age nor does it fit a ninja.
Its closer to hooker level than ninja level.
Increase skirtlenght and/or have her wear the type of clothing under it that Sakura had.
Remove high heels and replace with more ninja type footwear.
Or just draw her anime outfit instead.

Glad the Sasuke curls are gone.
Those didnt fit him at all.

Naruto his third whisker is very different from the other two.
Any reason for that?

Kishi his style improved also throughout the serie though.
There is quite a difference between the pages in the beginning naruto chapters and those later in the series.

Would be good if some stuff gets the same fix as happened to the sasuke curls.
I prefer the artstyle of the Boruto anime though.
Also none of the above art issues are in the anime.
