I generally still am interested in the plot and overall story though,i have to say kishi is being more inconsistent then usual with his character development.

One of the driving motifs is the emphasis on hard work which we never see sakura go through.She is a main character and main heroine yet we never see her have anything close to a critical or important role or seen her do anyting close to remsembling a heorine act and for the majority of the series we don't see her at all,and now out of the blue she has been storing chakra up this entire time oh for a insanely powerful kinjustu we never ever see her train for ?

It just feels shoehorned and without purpose.It doesn't even have the same impact compared to the first time it was revealed.When it was first introduced we were shocked and excited that she tsuande has a technique similar to hashirama's and showed she was indeed worthy of the title of hokage and was far from a "weak" senju as madara implied and now we learned that sakura has it.

Where is the sense of accomplishment ? It did not feel earned.
I guess her line where she says "Disciple of the fifth hokage was kishi saying see!She is trained by a powerful ninja so its only natural for her to be powerful and i am like then why couldn't we see any of this in action.Why does a main character have to have her training wrapped in exposition ? Shobby. just very shobby writing.

And what about madara ? He went from being this calm calculating guy who can hatch a decades long plan to achieve his goals who told the kages their moves were not graceful enough as if he had some sort of twisted class he abides by and now he is this insane can't wait to fight hashirama character who is falling into the same pits that eventually takes down every villain.The guy who lets people live because "It doesn't matter since there so weak"

I know he can't enact his plan at the momment but he sure ain't doing anything to keep the situation under his control.So much for the years of planning.

On the other hand for better or for worse (Which you can all discuss) Sasuke has finally made a choice (Doesn't mean i am glad how it happened) and i am glad kishi has choses to have him realize his brothers sacrifice.In the long run sasuke being evil would of only caused more problems and conflict that would not necessarily be easy to resolve.

I love the manga which is why i feel the need to point out the things that bother me and with the recent 180 attitudes of sasuke & madara and "the i had chakra storing up all long" i can see exactly why one would be pissed and rightly so.

Anyway if your planning on making a thread on things you did not like make sure you try and establsih why and where your coming from or the trolls who always spit the same lines will barge in the thread.You all know who i mean the "Its kishi's story","Write your own manga","You take this too seriously"

The last one is my favorite it showcases that,that person have no mind of there own and lack any kind of critical thinking lol

I dislike the flashbacks we have already encountered in the past, the Sakura back view speech has been used before which in turn wasted 2 or 3 pages which is really annoying.

I commented on that as well.

It seemed irrelevant and would of been better spent actually showing us sakura beat down some of the mini juubi's so we could of seen her in action more.

I find it frustrating that madara hasn't killed the entire shinobi alliance yet. He should do that. Oh and also that Sakura hasn't died yet. Her death will bring peace.

Izanami to this day is the best troll justu.
It was the worst example of a plot device in action

A very situated and very convoluted point in the story is what took kabuto down.
I would of rather have kabuto not gain all that power if it was going to be side stepped with something like izanami it only goes to show how little kishi had kabuto in mind and more how he could edo tensei into and out of play for the war.

I personally don't like the fact that Sasuke had a change of heart. It's not leaving a reasonable or logical solution that would lead to a Naruto Vs Sasuke, which is essentially a battle that everyone wants to see.

I am interested in what will happen next, and how the rest of the characters will develop after the war is over. Kakashi vs Obito is still interesting.

Kakashi has always been an interesting character, and ever since he spoke to Sasuke on the tree i've wanted to know his background. Now that we know about his background. It would be good for him to confront his past, so that he can start a fresh regardless of what the outcome is.

That is very interesting.

Another thing that interests me, is what will happen to the villages after the war. Will they drift apart? Will they continue the alliance? Still a mystery...

The whole Hokage situation has always baffled me. A few months ago i would have said that Naruto was going to become hokage. However, i'm not so sure now!

The entire story has been build around his dream to become hokage, so for him not to become hokage wouldn't really be logical. However....

Naruto reasoning was to "Acknowledged" by the villagers, which is already happened. Naruto is essentially an unforgettable legend. Not just to the Leaf! To the entire shinobi world.

Village will essentially be pointless if they continue to be allies. This is why i believe Naruto will not become a hokage.

I believe he will become something allot of special. He will become the Sage of Six Paths. However... I believe he will travel the world, searching for a kid that resembled himself, to oneday become the sage. Thus, leaving the memory of him to strength the bond between the allies force.

I'm going to say that I agree with you for Sakura and Madara. But I'd extend what you said to Sakura to most characters. The power ups they get they really don't work for.

That, and one of the central themes of the manga was defying destiny and Naruto being a random kid with talent, over the famous Uchiha Clan Genius. But now, Naruto is part of a clan known for having large chakra reserves and healing abilities. BUT it's rumored that the Sage of Six Paths might be an Uzumaki AND have predicted Naruto's coming?!

I dislike it.

It feels like all the wrong parts of the story are being dragged while the good parts are given less manga coverage :(

True i feel like the manga could of been one of very few manga that could of went on forever but,kishi for whatever intentions seems to be rushing through many of the plot points.

There is a whole shinobi world and a large cast

It would of been great to see naruto and co. go on more missions,finish the chuunin exams visit the other villages.
Have the akataskui introduced later that way you could of gotten a real feel for how powerful and threatening they were to the villages.Take the jonin exam whatever that may be and then get around to the the war.

With everyone all buddy buddy there is no possible way to ever revisit the manga without coming up with a convoluted story.
