Still going through Naruto Kai. The Chunin exams are finally over and now the plot can come back :marseyparty:

I realized the other day that Naruto and Neji are like Spongebob and Squidward, in that as a kid you empathize with the former, but as an adult you realize the later is just unlucky enough to be surrounded by r-slurs all the time.

Chunin exam is peak Naruto though. I remember being a kid and watching these fights while literally soyfacing (especially Gaara vs. Lee).

I like Zabuza but I had forgotten how handily his butt got beat by Kakashi. I remember him being stronger and using his sword more. Probably wasn’t in the animation budget back then.

Oh, you're right that was pretty cool too. Early Naruto had a lot of potential.

A shame they don't give any attention to the world properly. They also don't do typical ninja stuff either. The most you get is one ninjq village is full of black people and blonde white women lmao

The fights are cool true, and I understand the purpose of showing off what side characters can actually do. But most side characters in Naruto stay that way, so any attention given to them is a distraction from the main story because they almost never enter into the main story. I don’t hate the Chunin exams but I’m glad the main attack on the village is finally starting.

Also little kid Naruto can be really annoying. It’s also funny that Neji is right about destiny and all that because Shippuden established Naruto is basically Jesus and was always meant to be.

Nah, Naruto is written for dumb kid/teens so any meaningful analysis is completely redundant. Naruto went from a solid 5-6/10 to borderline insulting garbage during the great war and its aftermath (w/e the Kaguya Arc was).

It’s also funny that Neji is right about destiny and all that because Shippuden established Naruto is basically Jesus and was always meant to be.

That's literally almost every Shounen protagonist.
