Yeah I made a comment like this in a different thread...
i think Kishi has forgotten that Naruto can combine the two powers to access something even greater power or at least Ma and Pa should be on Naruto now... also, I am getting tired of Rasenshuriken and Rasengan!!! Sasuke has been upgraded each time he appears in a new fight, and even in today's manga he used a new fire element blaze release called God of Flames in english translations...
However Naruto cannot even use his Nature Affinity (Wind) properly... all he can do is add the WIND to rasengan to make Rasenshuriken that's all... Did anyone see the way Danzo could use WIND in different ways and several other Shinobis, but the main character can't do it.
What is KISHI smoking?
