Every great artist knows the saying "quit when your on the top of your game" Kishi obviously never heard of this...

He dragged the manga on for WAY too long and started introducing pointless Edo Tensei arc's.
Basically "milking the cow" and being self indulgent. Not showing respect to us, the fans.
WE MADE THE MANGA. Without us, the loyal fans, the manga would be nowhere. So Kishi should respect us as much as we respect him. The Edo Arc with all its illogic chapters and asspulls shows that Kishi has no respect for us fans.

He is introducing things whenever he wants and whatever he wants.

Killing a strong characters Sasuke with a fodder move... seriously kishi, that was laughable.

Wireless susanoo....

Sudden Sage-mode minato...

Obito comeback...

1000 plot armours...

Edo-escape...

Madara suddenly turning senile, dropping SO6P tools and engaging in TNJ with Obito.... Why?

Kakashi survives MS rasengan...

Gara & Mei survive direct Susasoo hit....

Susanoo without EMS...

Extract 9tails = guaranteed death, no exeption, well not in Nardos case of course....

Entire alliance knows Earth Release...

Minato stopping Kakashi from killing Obito....

Konan not removing/destroying Nagatos rinnegan after his death.....

Rinne tensei only revives one person... Huh?

Well the list can go on forever, the point is that this undermines our intelligence. Sorry Kishi, thats not acceptable.
I will countinue to read your manga to the end, but i lost all respect for you. This is not how you treat fans that have been loyal for 10 years.

LOL no. Naruto had barely even begun to explore the main theme of the show at this point. The war was fine, lots of old faces, lots of closure and lots of good fights and character development.

Stop sulking.

There was still many things left to be resolved after the Pain arc. It would have left many plot holes.

I wonder how many threads you're going to make complaining about the manga. We get it, you don't like it.

Why are you imposing your beliefs on all of us? :| I'm sure there are some people who enjoyed the arcs that came after 'Pain Invasion' and I'm one of those people. :eww:

i love the latest arcs much more than the pain arc. i guess its all a matter of opinion. kishis doing on awesome job.

minato having sage mode randomly is kinda weird i gotta admit but watever. A lot of the plot devices I predicted and its

awesome to see them come true like the hokage revival etc.

To your "The whole alliance knows Earth Release!" part, you don't have to have Earth Affinity to be able to use and Earth Jutsu. Just makes it a whole hell lot easier. Kakashi doesn't have Air Affinity, yet he can do a Rasengan. And just how Uchiha, like Itachi who has Fire and Water Affinity, can use other elements.

This.

We didn't make the manga and besides, Kishimoto himself has never noticed the series' fame so he wasn't milking the cow and there's nothing to be recognised.

So please, do us all a favour and stop wasting bandwidth with half-baked opinions.

I will countinue to read your manga to the end, but i lost all respect for you. This is not how you treat fans that have been loyal for 10 years.

Milking the cow? WHAT? If he ended the manga after the Pain arc, it would leave a lot of unanswered questions and you, and many others will be crying.

?????????????????
I don't know about that "respect" part. He continued the manga for all of his fans, not just for the "loyal fans". You see, there is no perfect manga out there and also a perfect human being. He may have made mistakes but maybe he is planning in the future chapters to correct those. I'm maybe right or wrong but we have to wait till he finishes the manga. As for now.... SIT THE FCK DOWN AND READ. AND IF YOU DON'T WANT TO THEN STOP READING IT.

If the manga ended at the Pain arc, there would have been many threads left unconnected. I can understand Kishimoto's thinking in this; he considers himself to be an artist, and figured there was more he could add to his story. We all have our opinions on his story, and we shouldn't have to impose them on others.

Your argument is completely valid, the thing that pissed me off the most was how kishi turned Madara into a senile old man who can't get over the past and how the supporting characters like Gaara or Shikamaru started to be seen as weak and insignificant. This is why people USED TO BE Naruto fans, because of the awesome part 1 anime that did justice to each character!

I would've felt more disrespected if he would've ended the series during the Pein arc.

And I personally don't feel like my intelligence has been insulted. It's Kishi's story. At the end of the day what can I tell Kishi about Kishi's story?
