I give it a 7.5/10

Things could have been handled differently near the end.

"Minor" flaws in the story? :rolleyes:

I made two threads about some the major flaws in the story like Sakura's character and the Oosutsuki mess.

Aside from your 2 major flaws

Did you also think deus ex machina things dragged down this manga quality?

Cmon Kishi is an avg write
The war arc was only the dragged out thing

While I do agree those are pretty major flaws , I think in context of a 700 chapter manga that they don't really drag it down that much. I guess what I'm trying to say is that the good outweighs the bad. The manga was solid for a good 500-600 chapters.

The war arc is the source of many asspull that drag down Naruto manga quality.

Not before that event

And still my point is relevent

And that war arc writing put him below avarage mangaka in my own opinion

With me it's more of an issue of quality over quantity. While it had more positives than negatives, the negatives were so awful that they overshadow the good. I would say that it stopped being solid the moment Tobi appeared, as that mystery was a massive waste of time.

Actually Kishi is below average as a writer. His first editor was the reason it was ever good. After he left after the Itachi arc the story went to shit.

Not after we saw how Hamura helped. Hagoromo's whole legend was retconned


not really, it's just convoluted.

after sealing Juubi Hagoromo researched releasing It...after finding out Juubi's power was required he could've went back and sealed it into himself with Hamura's help.(the first RCT..may have crumbled)

Kyurama confirmed he had the Gedou mazo so nothing was really retconned. Until Kishi actually fully explains it.

The databook said that the brothers sealed the Juubi in the moon and that was it. Kishi created a plot hole.

Part 1 was good and it was one of the animes that I grew up with, but now that I have read so many other manga to compare with, overall I have to say that it is a pretty mediocre manga.

The first 3 arcs were a solid 9, from there on a 8 and the ending barely a 7.

I love it, I may have not liked particularly kaguya's introduction but I'll wait for the movie as well. In any case, it remains my favourite.

it went down hill when part 2 arrived and it was all about chasing sausage. naruto and sakura were literary obsessed with him when he didn't care about them. that's not friendship
