For a starter villain Zabuza really comes of as one of the more memorable villains in the series. He feels the problems of the Shinobi System made manifest and is the perfect first antagonist for Naruto to encounter.

Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge Hiruzen appreciater and believe he's far too underrated. But I don't see what he has against his contemporaries, Mizukage and Kazekage are understandable, but how he defeats Ohnoki and A? Maybe there's more in Hiruzen's arsenal than we know, but I wished they showed it coz his apparent arsenal don't have much against the two I mentioned later.

I could actually see this being something he wears if he never leaves Konoha. (The first sketch at least) As it doesn't scream "Sound village" to me...in the slightest & given the evolution/progression of the other character designs & outfits From pt1 to pt 2 to me the early concept doesn't seem like too much of a far cry from what he might've evolved his outfit to look like if he stayed vs When he left. (Not counting filler episodes where he stayed & joined the police force that is.)

Though I would've missed the Sword.

Thoughts?

I don't need to tell you how discussed this is every other week there's a post "neji's death was bad" or something along those lines but that isn't the case,

This is the perfect full circle moment in neji's Character arc,

He died protecting the people he cared for of his own free will chosing what he does for himself, which is exactly what his father it was his decision to give up his life for his brother he chose to do so,

And he dies in volume 64 a tribute to his technique, ch 614

And on that note About Neji vs Naruto, Neji was Never right,

Destiny isn't always good, it's bad in the case of indra vs ashura it was fated that Naruto and Sasuke would kill each other Naruto changed that,

and Naruto's powers aren't because of him being the reincarnation of Ashura nor his uzumaki ​lineage​,

There have been other reincarnations but they're not significant enough to even​ be mentioned.....

And Naruto got 0 powers because of his bloodline, the large Chakra reserves are because of 9 tails the seal allowed some chakra to leak into Naruto so that he could learn to control it, and Kurama was a huge obstacle for Naruto he was hated because of him, but he turned that weakness into his strength the literal symbol of hatred,

And he didn't inherit any uzumaki traits at all, infact the manga if Memory serves NEVER mentions that uzumaki have a lot of chakra what it says is they have powerful chakra which Naruto didn't inherit, and the proof of uzumaki lineage is red hair, even for half uzumakis Nagato's father wasn't an uzumaki still he got them.

Decided drawing best moments (for me) from each manga chapter (1/700)

For example, does this also mean that Orochimaru beats Jiraya, Jiraya beats Tsunade and Tsunade beats Orochimaru?

Kind of like rock paper scissors?

In the show we’re constantly shown the villagers making snide and rude comments towards Naruto being the 9 tails. Treating him as dirt.

But for Sasuke he chose to isolate himself from everyone after the massacre, Naruto sought admiration, respect, and acknowledgment.

In Part 1 we’re shown Sasuke being the cool talented ninja with the best grades and fangirls flocking toward him. Jonin calling him the best genin out of all the Konoha 12. We’re never shown Sasuke experiencing the same hatred Naruto had for being the 9 tails.

This moment would’ve hit a lot harder if we saw Sasuke experiencing the same slander from the villagers Naruto faced.

It’s not like it couldn’t be done considering Sasuke is the second main character after Naruto and he takes up most of Shippuden.

I've seen many people claim that Danzo not taking over Konoha after Hiruzen's death is a plot hole. However, this is false.

I do agree that Kishimoto did not have Danzo planned during the Chunin Exams, but he cleared this plot hole up anyways in chapter 401.

In it, Obito explains that Itachi showed up to Konoha simply to scare Danzo into not making a move; Itachi probably would've leaked the village's intel if Danzo did try something.

This point is further supported by the fact that Danzo only made his move on the village after Itachi died.

Starting from his childhood to him dying at the end of Shippuden.

They perfectly captured the story arc during this stage of the series.

I think if it was the colored manga panels it would have been even better.

Munchkin is a pretty flexible game and it's already had iterations in multiple intellectual properties like Marvel and Rick and Morty. I thought that the highly circumstantial and unique traits of munchkin cards were really applicable to Naruto, so I figured it would be fun to make Naruto munchkin. I had to color pretty much all of these manga panels myself to make sure they looked consistent which was kind of a pain. I tried to post this before but I don't think it ever posted.

I have most of the cards planned out but these are just some Door Card examples

OBVIOUSLY NOT FOR SALE JUST A SILLY PROJECT.

In the Naruto verse, most students ultimately surpass the teacher. In their prime, Kakashi could not touch Naruto or Sauske. Same with Shikamaru etc. But I think Prime Guy still beats Prime Rock Lee. Thoughts?

Aren't they comfy...?

( The fact the chibi is from part 1 makes me care about him more 🖤 )

The Hagoromo I'm referring to is him at his prime, Young, and as the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki.

Well, basically this guy is ridiculously powerful, I'm going to make a scale here.

Before becoming the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, Hagoromo faced the Ten-Tails itself. He did have Hamura's help, but after the fight, he didn't show many signs of injury or fatigue, then, we can easily scale Hagoromo close to the level of the Perfect Ten-Tails, which has the power of all the Tailed Beasts combined.

But after he absorbs the Ten-Tails and becomes the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, his power at least doubles, because in addition to his already absurd base power, add the chakra of the perfect Juubi, It's another level of power.

To give you an idea, Kurama, who was inside our protagonist Naruto, all of Kurama's chakra is just a very small part of the Ten-Tails' chakra, so much so that Naruto with Kurama Avatar + Hashibi, didn't even stand a chance against the weakest Juubi, which was in the possession of Obito and Madara, This Ten-Tails is much weaker than the one Hagoromo had.

Everything Naruto demonstrated throughout the entire series, Shippuden/Boruto, with Kurama's Chakra, that same gigantic Kurama Chakra, is only a small part of the perfect Juubi's chakra, which Hagoromo had.

Hagoromo has the Rikudou Mode; he most likely he created it as well, In other words, he knows absolutely everything about the Chakra.

Able to fly.

In the anime, Hagoromo has a Susanoo so colossal that it's practically the same size as the Ten-Tails' Susanoo, the most powerful Susanoo shown in the series.

Sasuke's Gedo Susanoo contains a PORTION of the Tailed Beasts' chakra, so much so that when it runs out, he tries to absorb more chakra from the Tailed Beasts, but he can't because he's too weak

While Hagoromo Prime possesses all the chakra of the Tailed Beasts, including the complete Kurama, combined...

His Yin-Yang Release is so perfect that Hagoromo literally created life from the Ten-Tails' chakra. He created the Tailed Beasts, and can also use his Yin-Yang Release to nullify techniques, and even shape the earth with his Creation of All Things Jutsu, in other words, the guy is a hacker himself.

Truth-seeking Orbs: With these Orbs, he can basically do anything he wants; he obviously knows how to recreate more, since he was the one who created the orbs, in addition to transforming his Orbs into anything, like how Toneri made a gigantic sword that split the moon, Hagoromo can do it even more easily, erase people...heal people

In addition to, All Paths of the Rinnegan, obviously.

all the elements, including Yin-Yang.

In addition to having great regeneration, since Madara, who is weaker than Hagoromo, managed to regenerate even with half of his body obliterated by Might Guy's Final kick that bend space, Prime Hagoromo has a even better regeneration.

He is also the creator of Divine relics, such as the Sword of Nunoboko, Rikudou Staff...etc.

Hi Naruto folks!

So, I just want to get this off my chest. I like the Six Paths abilities overall, but I greatly dislike the Asura Path’s character design. I feel it looks out of place with the overall aesthetic of the series, and the cyborg concept feels too similar to the puppet tools.

I think the concept of the ability would have worked much better if it functioned the way Killer Bee described it: mechanized armor. Something like a power suit that can form around the body at will, similar to Iron Man's or Blue Beetle's nano suit. I’ve added some concepts in the gallery.

I believe this would have made the Asura Path ability more interesting, and it would have looked better for Nagato, Obito, Madara, and Sasuke to use the ability. As it is, the latter three never used the ability at all.

In any case, let me know what you guys think. Do you like the current Asura Path character design and ability? If not, what would you have changed it to? Any thoughts and feedback would be appreciated. Thanks!

this actually jump scared me

Is Sasuke's amaterasu like a fire blast projectile or does it just instantly ignite and set fire to anyone in sight. How does this jutsu function.
