Did pairings ruined the manga for you?

no the manga itself ruined it for me. only good arc was the land of waves.

Yes it did. Kishi ruined the series with forced BS pairings that made no sense, but it's whatever since everyone gets a happy ending.

How was it forced BS? Not everyone falls in love as children.. There was like a twelve year gap. Anyone could've dated anyone. And how was an entire series ruined because of relationships? if you disregarded the pairings the story would literally not change.. at all.

I like the idea of NaruHina and SasuSaku. They could have turned out to be very compelling, developed couples.
But the way Kishimoto executed the pairings wasn't great at all. It was too sudden. It felt like the ultimate fan service. And even though I do like the ending pairings, I don't like how Kishi handled it.
The pairings didn't ruin the manga for me. But their execution certainly made the ending less satisfying after 18 years of development.

No pairings for a certain group was the only straw. Go on tumblr, massive a amounts people think this series was worth anything(or even great)before the last chapters.

I don't consider people from tumblr part of the Naruto fandom(Not all people just pairing tards), because for 1 they only care about pairings. And 2 they don't care about the plot whatsoever


Series became shit for me when kishi ruined Madara's character

Aight, got some answers. That's all folks

Still fail to see what people are expecting from romance from a damn shounen series.

Manga was shit long before the end, pairings didn't affect it whatsoever

That's not the point. Instead of kishi elaborating on these forced pairings, he leaves us off to fill up the gaps ourselves. Like for example, how would anyone know that Sarada hasn't met her dad for 11 years? No one would have thought of that until Gaiden came along. Also they were 17 near the end of part 2, and kishi had a chance to develop the other pairing in the last.

I'm not saying pairing are the only reason why this became shit. Read my other posts
