I equate how good Naruto is to the fighting in that arc. Kage summit had amazing battles so I dont see it far off from the pain arc. Obviously the pain arc was set on a bigger scale which makes it overall seems better.
When did Naruto start to go downhill?

When was Naruto only about ninjas when Kishimoto made it clear about the Kyuubi tails alone destroying mountains in the first chapter? You people seem to have this idea that you created (in your heads) of what Naruto is suppose to be when it's no where near the original product.

DBZ had its own issues while Naruto did its own. I used to be a big fan of Naruto thinking it would be a little different than DBZ but sadly I was mistaken. They both suffer from the same power abuse syndrome. Naruto did with Senju and Uchiha what DBZ did with the sayains. In the end the power scaling went off the charts. Making it seem like only one brand of power was superior to the rest. This sort of thing destroys a anime very fast in my opinion.

I know but I feel like that saga felt the most "ninja" out of all other arcs if that makes sense to youThats hella early

In the Zabuza saga, Zabuza showed us that the shinobi world was cruel and dark, children are used as tool, etc. Plus, it had lots of strategy, stealth, and suspense. Do you not agree with me?

Id say it was with the whole Kaguya reveal/Black Zetsus infamous 1shot. I see quite a few saying it was the Obito reveal for them. As much as I was completely against Tobi being Obito, I actually really liked how it was handled. Obitos descent to hell is one of my favorite parts of the series. I actually didnt mind Naruto/Sasukes godlike powers to match Madaras, considering it was supposed to be a limited kind of thing. The only godlike powerup that literally made me wtf out loud was DMS perfect susanoo Kakashi out of Fing nowhere. I pretty much despised the whole Kaguya/Ootsutsuki story though. Especially what theyve done to expand on it in the movies. Madara wouldve been a much better final villain imo.

Agreed, part 2 is when they started to really shy away from the ninja aspect of the series.
