Naruto Part 1

[MetaC]

I feel like Part 1 Naruto I had more of a bond with each character, when Naruto spoke in Part 1, even tho he was redundant lmao I believed him, when Sasuke spoke he had this cool ass vibe, maybe its cuz I was 12 when it came on American TV, but I miss tho feels almost cried when zabuza died

Also that the other characters had panel time and now they barely do.

yeah thats true, but when Naruto in part 2 got bland taste wise after the pain arc

That's because Kishi gave the konoha members time to shine for part 1. Even though part 2 had better moments, as a whole part 1 was superior to me. That zabuza arc was good but my fav. was the Sasuke retrieval arc.

When everyone wasn't OP and actually uses tactics & stuff

 

[Obito the supreme jin]

Part 1 is when the author actually made the fights more interesting and gave it much more depth.

Rock Lee vs Gaara

Naruto vs Neji

Naruto vs Gaara

Naruto vs Sasuke Vote 1

Neji vs Kidomaru.

Naruto and Sasuke vs Haku

These fights were well done and it explored the different clans KKG in some of them and it showed their personality. The plot literally did not revolve around the Uchiha This is why Part 1 was so great.

Nawh. Just nawh. Zabuza arc was nice and all but you can't beat moments like Sasuke vs Deidera/Oro or Naruto vs. Pain. Shikamaru had his best moments in part 1 though.

Edit: thought about it some more and you're high af.

Part had the best of Itachi, Jiraiya, Minato, Madara etc.

The series grew. It introduced more people more techs just more of everything.

It grew too fast and escalated too quickly to the point where it started disappointing people in how things were dealt with.

Things change , but logically part 2 is better! Because So many auestions answered and there are fights that are epic , and Obito

 

[ChicagoJhawk]

Part 1 had fights that used tactic and logic where part 2 consisted of who ever had more power ups won. Part 2 did start off with some good logical fights like shikamaru against hidan and company but after pain arc the logical fighting and strategy fell apart and edo tensei made stupid rematchs with op characters who should remain dead

Logically part 1 is better. Part two was too much of a Uchiha+Senju wank fest. IF more characters were given screen time and development in part two, then it would trump Part 1. Its Funny how Kishi forgot about the Byakugan(when there are only 3 dojutsu's) and now is trying to make up for that with these half-assed movies.
