Hard work is done through choice and perseverance. It isn't controlled by destiny or some higher power.
There are lots of people who can but do not work at all.
The moral of the story is you are a hypocritical, butthurt fanboy with absolutely so concept of the story or a narrative as a whole.
The theme of Naruto is gone. Before the message was of perseverance and endeavour fighting against destiny and prejudice. Naruto - the drop-out, the loser,the failure, the "fox boy", the untouchable one - worked his balls off to get anywhere in life. The message was that no matter what people think of you, if you work hard enough you can overcome anything and anyone and achieve greatness and gain respect. Destiny is for cowards. Characters like Choji, Rock Lee, Sasuke and Neji all show this fight against destiny.No please cut this shit now.
The moral of the story is Masashi Kishimoto shows us THAT EVERYONE OF US HAS HIDDEN TALENT. However it takes guts, strong will and getting along with a alot of people while struggling through pain and hardwork to finally make our talent unleashed/bloomed as we can be proud of it.
The only change Kishi has done is "Naruto was underdog who became great" but "Naruto had great hidden talent but was treated as shit and began as underdog then only due to hard working/ going thorugh the pain allowed him to make his talents/efforts bloom ". Exactly like Ashura.
The destiny crap is still incorrect as Naruto destined to fail due to all events waiting for him in his life even although he has hidden potential. All of the events in Naruto's life tried to change him etc., but he overcame the destiny by making his own choices.
The moral of Naruto was that one of the Hagoromo's sons need to live among normal/weak people and raise as underdog to expierience all the pain/hardwork which will allow him to understand feelings/emotions of other people. That why Kishi allowed Naruto to be now OP, so he can change the word remembering of weaker people and their life. He also can solve their problems.
CONCLUSION: You are mad because Neji died. Please cut the crap
Choji becoming a butterfly, Rock Lee mastering Taijutsu, Sasuke dedicating his life to avenging his clan and Neji wanting more out of life than to be a puppet of the Hyuuga clan system.
But now, it's all about Destiny!
Naruto is the reincarnation of Ashura so his life is basically Ashura's life being lived again. Ashura is reborn as Naruto. So all Naruto's hard work and therefore his success is predetermined. And before you argue there's no connection, there clearly is!
Both are drop outs who gained strength by working hard and forming bonds with people around them. Furthermore this shows how the fight between Uchia and Senju has trickled down to Naruto and Sasuke from Ashura and Indra.
We also know that the Sage wanted the Bijuu to one day be reunited as the Juubi and that one person would step forward to lead the world in a new age. cough -Obviously Naruto's destiny - cough
Choki and Rock lee are useless now because they're not main characters, Sasuke is the reincarnation of Indra so his hard work and success is predetermined too, and Neji....sigh Neji was right from jump street. You can't fight destiny. Neji's destiny as a member of the Branch house of the Hyuuga clan was to die protecting the Main House members - specifically Hinata.
He knew this, he even said so. What happened to him? He died protecting Hinata.
Destiny.
The only way Kishimoto can hope to bring this back at all is for Naruto to bring Sasuke back to the good side and end the Cycle of Hate as well as contradict what how Ashura had to kill Indra. But even then, stopping the Cycle of Hate would still fulfil the prophecy set by the Sage (he's waiting for someone to reunite the Bijuu and lead the world in a new age).
The theme of Naruto was that of endeavour overcoming destiny
The theme of Naruto Shippuuden is of fulfilling your destiny. Endeavour cant fight against it - only accelerate it. Completely contradicting the original message of the anime.
Nothing about Naruto character is consistent anymore. There's the whole Naruto becoming godlike so fast. naruto power increased faster than anyone ever managed in the dbz world. now they will have to give sasuke a huge boost just to even keep up with the 17 year old with sage mode, full demon control(which doesn't make sense they pulled an avatar the last air bender trick, not to mention he only hold half the kyuubi yet can do so much), can move quicker than the 4th hokage,has the ability to spam miny nukes that he can create in his hand within a second and has a 1hitKO jutsu.
then the shadow clone thing, what happened to when ever you use it you run the risk of dying. if that's the case naruto has played with death more than Homer Simpson. this anime ued to be good what happened. jut wait till he get the full kyuubi
Thank you for making my point.
Yet you still read it week after week. Thank you once again for making my point.
My point is that I still have strong passion with Naruto series, I just don't like naruto as a character, I still like tons of other sider characters like Neji Gai, tobirama etc there's reason why I still watch naruto, and even I'm disappointed I wouldn't drop out when I've invested the time for the majority of the time, it's pointless to drop a series when it's almost finished.
