Stephen C @bob25009 Jan 3 37 successful anime episodes. See more Black B @RT94109295 Apr 24 Yo ya me di por vencido al querer que sigan la historia aquí, sin lugar a duda otra temporada relleno y sin ningún propósito, si expanden el lore pero puedes no verla y estar igual que antes, entonces está temporada es algo que no vale la pena pero que te mantendrá entretenido todo el tiempo. Esta es otra temporada con puro relleno, ya desde hace bastante todas las misiones sin sucederías y no se ve nada de la historia principal, si conoces más de nuestros personajes pero no sé si ya valga la pena ahora que no nos dan datos importantes de los personajes de esta aldea. Estos últimos episodios fueron mejores que las últimas 3 temporadas, una historia triste para seguir con una historia devolviendo el favor a la aldea de la arena, dándonos un final que nos da pie a una nueva historia y a la continuación de Naruto llamada “Naruto Shippuden”. See more Kyle E @Plady 01/21/2024 This season has even more filler, but it's enjoyable See more 05/29/2022 There are, of course, many shortcomings in this series (if you can call it that): it has a lot of unrealism, implausibility (I mean even within this universe and setting), pianos in the bushes, and sometimes absurd nonsense. Especially annoying when it violates its own laws. Typically, the audience is confidently told that something is impossible, and a minute later someone (mostly Naruto) does something. For example, if something appears in the frame that cannot be broken, you should expect that in the same series someone will definitely break it. The same goes for someone who is allegedly impossible to kill or defeat - there is a god for everything from the machine. The most egregious examples of such reversals involve deaths, which we are told are certain to occur under certain circumstances, but when those circumstances occur, no deaths occur. It really annoyed me while watching it. The characters for the most part also leave much to be desired - except for their appearance, there is no diversity in them. All negative heroes, except for the main reptiles in the person of Orochimaru and Itachi, although this is also found in them, are arrogant, overly self-confident and rude stereotypical scoundrels who humiliate positive heroes as primitively as possible and, as a rule, underestimate them during the battle, which is the most common reason for defeat, and the positive ones are completely frenzied children, turned on self-affirmation, headlong, rushing to the title of the best of the best, always proving something to someone, ostentatious, boastful, noisy, loud, screaming, pugnacious, aggressive, teenagers who are maximalistic and categorical in their worst manifestation, who actually just compensate for their countless, but monotonous childhood traumas, resentments and complexes. Okay, if only one Naruto was like that, but absolutely everyone is like that! Unless, Shikamaru stands out against their background and looks like a normal ordinary kid, which he has to himself. And in all the rest, with the exception of Naruto, Sasuke and Gaara, who are more deeply developed, everything described only repels. Among the adult goodies, there are fewer such ones (Kakashi is especially pleasant among them), but they are usually in the background of the story. And, of course, speaking of Naruto's shortcomings, one cannot help but mention the insane and unbearable protractedness. Of the 220 episodes of the first season, 92 are filler (I manually counted it myself). Almost half! And out of 20 story arcs, 13 are completely or almost completely filler! What it is? Why is that? If there is a main storyline, why not follow it? Why constantly be distracted by all sorts of leftist stories that do not affect anything in any way? But okay, this is after all an anime, a different style not only for drawing, but also for narration. And for me, accustomed to Western storytelling, it's hard to accept this, but it's more about me. Okay, I can still somehow accept this ... But how it bakes for me when most of the non-filler episodes turn out to be just as leading to nothing, when throughout the entire series everyone stands still and talks nonsense, and at the end there is some small detail that seems to be indirectly related to the main story! It's like a divorce, as if there was only one chip in a bag of chips. I get a fart bomb from their endless dialogue during battles! They even in normal situations do not talk as much as in the process of a fight. And the phrases are all the same: "I will destroy you", "It is useless", "You are a weakling", "And you are strong", "How is this possible?" and so on. They manage to make a whole speech while rushing at each other or while their fist is flying, although this should happen in a matter of seconds! I don't believe this is how real ninjas fight. And also these annoying flashbacks in the middle of important events ... I can understand if they show me something that I have not seen before, but more than half of the flashbacks are a repetition of what happened in the last or even in the same series ten minutes ago! And sometimes they don't even frame it in a flashback, but simply openly repeat the same frame three times or the same action five times from different angles, and then demonstrate the surprised reaction of all those present to this. Even at the beginning of the series, after the splash screen, I have to skip a couple more minutes, because the beginning of almost every series duplicates the ending of the previous one. I can't explain all this otherwise than by the banal laziness of the creators and the artificial stretching of the series. In fact, the entire first season, if desired, could be easily reduced to 100 episodes. You can also see how low their budget was in the first season. Little drawing of backgrounds, backdrops and details, low quality, and during especially epic and fast battles, drawing generally becomes as simplified and generalized as possible, and I get the feeling that I'm looking at painted sketches, and not at the finished finished material. The story itself is pretty simple. I was constantly jarred by endless detailed explanations of every action and every little thing. Everything is literally chewed up. But if you think about it, it's all logical. Actually In fact, we have to admit, Naruto is still a children's anime, which justifies a lot. It is right for boys: fights, simple humor, caricature and stereotyping of all the characters, excessive emotionality, hyperbolization and no difficulties. No wonder everyone, including myself, loved it so much as a child. So maybe I'm just asking too much of him? And to be honest, I still like this anime after all. Despite all the shortcomings and disadvantages (with time you get used to all of them and even almost stop noticing), there is still something catchy in it, forcing you to look further and have fun. This spirit and atmosphere absorb and leave some kind of pleasant and cozy feeling at the end. In fairness, it's worth saying that among the notable virtues of the series are a wonderful soundtrack, great dynamic openings that can be enjoyed separately, and the themes of friendship, growing up, becoming and fighting inner demons are shown with dignity. Even the basic idea of ​​"never give up", although it is demonstrated one-sidedly and hackneyed, is still good in its essence. See more 11/10/2021 If you skip the fillers then it is a must-watch. This is one of the best animes by far, from the interesting and well-thought characters to the well-developed plot with decent world-building. If you are into watching action than this is the show for you See more 06/04/2021 Good stuff. I love it all. See more Read all reviews
