[quote=Makaveli]wow....well finally tht guy dead...and finally some1 actually died in this manga lol.
I'm sorry, but have we been reading the same manga. Lots of people have died in this manga, both good and bad. Just because Nagato revived everyone in Konoha doesn't mean no one dies. Have you forgotten about the Sandaime (third Hokage), Azuma, and the biggy, Jiraiya?
lol i remember tht but its been awhile since tht so to me its like forver since some1 died. and also only Azuma and Jiraiya were the only ones we read/saw die i think so thts how i see it and those ppl died but they came bak so there not dead dead u kno but w/e...im happy some1 died in a long time
No, we saw the Third Hokage die. Remember, during Orochimaru's attack on Konoha, the Third Hokage used that jutsu to try and kill Orochimaru, but was only able to disable his arms. As a result of using that jutsu (the same jutsu Naruto's father used to seal the Nine Tails), he died. So, we did see the Third Hokage die. And who were you talking about that died and came back? The people of Konoha? Yea, I know about that. I said Nagato revived them. Either way, I think the amount of death in the series is good. I thought all those deaths in Konoha was excessive, so I was glad they made Nagato revive them.[/quote]
o ur rite...i forgot...and yea the Konoha killings was jus too much so i was kinda happy when ppl were revived.
anyways...sakura does was sakura does lol i hope she dies too if she keeps thinking she can even touch sasuke

Oh well, Naruto is what it is.
True, but it's a pity since the potential for something epic is (or was) always there.
But I suppose Kishimoto has to keep dumbing the story down because it's shounen,
and not seinen...
I wouldn't normally give it this much thought, but it's a shame in this case because of
all the ways the Narutoverse could be expanded and made better overall (unlike say...
Bleach, which is so screwed up that nothing can be done to fix it - there will never be
another 'Soul Society arc'...).
Sasuke did it again..Sasuke just too overpowered..He's just a teen that hv few years of experience in battle compared to danzo..He even can control the jutsu that he just learn.. And now want to destroy konoha.. Naruto why won't you kill him when u had a chance and stop trying to 'save' him.. He deserved to die..Everyone should take responsible in their action..

I agree, absolutely. What couldn't Kishimoto have done with this series? Political intrigue! Spying! Hell, the characters could have been off fighting demons instead of pedophiles. Initially, it seemed as though the series was going to tackle some of the larger issues with living as a soldier for hire, so I'd been expecting Naruto to eventually get sent on a mission he didn't want to take. It's not always nice people like Tazuna who hire ninjas. That might be somewhat heavy for a shonen manga, but I think Kishimoto could've pulled it off without dumbing down the story nearly as much as he has. Togashi has never dumbed down Hunter x Hunter, for instance.
I dislike thinking about this series (at all, really), but it's like you say: it had potential, and it still does, but then it all derailed. (Oh yes, Bleach is a train wreck for sure.) I guess it's my own stubbornness in hoping that I haven't wasted all these years reading a manga that will never get back on track. (Just finish all this stuff with Sasuke so we never have to hear about it again!!!!)
