Really? I mean given his true form looked like this,

So we can't harass people that follow this series, but if I see any awful cosplayers I will kick them in a lava pit. It's kind of like the exception to the first rule.
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
I don't feel the need to defend my liking of Naruto. It entertains me and I've been invested in the plot for 10 years. I really like a handful of the characters, and I'll be damned if I don't find out how their story plays out.
I admit naruto is not the same as it used to be. It was so much better back before the timeskip and even when the timeskip happen it was still good in fact great. It only when sasuke killed orichimaru that I really belive the series began to dip but I still enjoy the series even with the stupid moments since then. I am still very much invested in seeing what happens, looking forward towards it and still careabout naruto as a charter himself.
I miss Tobi. What ever happened to him?
I have a feeling this new positive approach is going to lead to a lot of Past Tense being used in the thread, and minimize chapter discussion.
Oh well, heres a rather radical opinion: Even though they're cheap, overpowered, overused, can make every move retractable and get new abilities every fight, I liked that Kishi attempted to base his Sharingan fights on trickery and strategy. Mostly the tricks were Hax and the strategies full of holes, but I liked the idea. At least compared to the current status of "Stand completely still and whack you with my indestructible skeleton armor! Smash, smash!"
@The:
"Stand completely still and whack you with my indestructible skeleton armor! Smash, smash!"
Susano'o makes no sense as a part of the Sharingan moveset.
Illusionary fire that doesn't burn out? Okay.
Illusion torture dimension? Fine.
GIANT SKELETON WARRIOR. What.
Couldn't Kishi just make Kakashi's weird "make crap disappear" Sharingan power Susano'o?
I still quite like Naruto. I still have complaints about it and all and it's been long out of my favorite Jump titles, but I do like it quite a bit still.
And this is kind of embarrassing, but I thought Naruto's talk to Nagato was perfectly fine until I came here. It was even one of my favorite parts of the series :/

Naruto was being Naruto, it was Nagato's quick 180 that made it retarded.
Oh, I know why people hate it. It just never bothered me, nor did I actually notice how quick it went until I read people's complaints here.

I don't know what that wold be embarrassing.
I guess Robby was very right. People being so negative that some people feel shame for enjoying certain things. Or that they have to apologize for liking it.

What's everyone favorite naruto moment?
When Guy told Lee he believed his surgery would be a success, since he had a 50% survival rate; and Lee was crying because he wanted to be a ninja so badly but was too scared to die. And then Guy said his dream was to make Lee's dream (to become a splendid ninja without ninjutsu or taijutsu) a reality, and that if Lee died, Guy would die with him.
That had me in tears.

Zabuza arc. When Sasuke nearly died and Naruto went ninetails and beat the snot out of Haku.
I wish it had happened a few more times. Scenes like that are the best.
What's everyone favorite naruto moment?
either when zabuza turns around to naruto crying and tells him to shut up, or when gai saves lee from garaa (during the match) and then lee gets up unconscious and gai tells him he's already a great ninja

What's everyone favorite naruto moment?
Rock Lee vs Gaara in the Chuunin Exams.
Ranks up there with my favourite fights of all time if only for the moment when Lee takes off his weights for the first time even though it's a trick thats been done countless times before (I cant even begin to count the amount of times it happened in dragonball) I've never seen it done better. It was just a great fight with a wonderful ebb and flow and it's what made Rock Lee my favourite character in Naruto.
I like Naruto as a series on the whole, I think that part one was fantastic up until the death of the third hokage after that I think it started to slowly decline but even the Sound Four Arc still had some great moments. I think I'm part of the majority when I say that Naruto went down hill as Sasuke's character deteriorated and became genuinely unlikable. This coupled with the increasing importance of eye jutsu's (I still have no idea what the Rinnegan does and what the heck it has to do with eyes) and numerous other flaws that have been listed on this thread countless times made a series that I used to love a bit of a weekly chore.
As it comes to an end I really hope that it can regain a bit of it's former glory because despite all its flaws I still have a soft spot for it.
The eye jutsus were so much better back at the chunnin exam era where all their powers were clearly related to the fact that they were using EYES. As opposed to all the rinnengan bullshit, Susanoo and to a lesser extent amaterasu. Oh and lets not forget Izanagi, which is the stupidest thing ever to be honest

Isn't the crux of it by hypnotizing yourself, you can somehow defy reality? Yeah, it's stupid.

I had almost forgotten how good this series was when it was at its best. Those two scenes were fantastic, and it brought back how invested I used to be in the series.
here's something I came across while re-reading the earlier parts: Who exactly do these shadows represent?
I can obviously make out Kisame and Itachi, and possibly Kanon and Deidara, but who's the guy hanging from the ceiling? Or the guy with the spiky hair? And where the hell is Sasori, I don't see his trademark hat anywhere.
Now, I don't mean to call kishimoto out on something as common as "drawing mysterious shadows instead of finalizing designs", which even Oda is guilty of, but I do think it's interesting to look back on things like this with the knowledge we have now.
My good sir, your images does not appear :P

I can't see the picture either but judging by your description the ceiling guy would be Zetsu and spiky dude should be Pain.
oh fuck it. I can see the damn thing, I uploaded it and everything.
[http://manga.animea.net/naruto-chapter-238-page-19.html
j](http://manga.animea.net/naruto-chapter-238-page-19.html)ust go here.
I think the one hanging from the ceiling is Deidare, because on the close up you can only see one eye. The one in the far back should be.. Sasori?
From what I can make out; starting at the left: Kisame, Kakuzu, Konan, Itatchi, Deidara(ceiling; the middle panel in the bottom confirms this), Sasori(he isn't wearing his hat), Hidan, Pain, Zetsu.
Other than Deidara's outline and Hidan's hairstyle, the rest don't seem to be too be different from their silhouettes.
Playing the new Naruto PS3 game I realized that I do like most of the characters (and their respective abilities) but what is pissing me off is the way they've been handled by the author. All of that potential was wasted and the main focus was on Sasuke and Naruto. I honestly wonder how that manga would've turned out if Kishimoto took his time to maybe make a longer break, come up with good background stories and then continue with his work. Well… guess we'll have to deal with it. It's not that I dislike the manga per se but rather that I like it less and less with each passing chapter. You could say that Naruto is slowly dying; along with my initial passion for it.
With the announcement of a live action Bleach movie, what do you guys think a live action Naruto would be like?
not looking forward to seeing some loud asian kid with whisker preach and cry about a book. its torture nuff in the manga

Welp it would be the inspiring story of a village underdog rising to the top through hard work and sufferingOKAY FUCK THIS
If a live action movie could take notes from that fan made Rock Lee movie a while ago, it would be awesome. Speaking of which, does anyone know what happened to the 2nd part?
How does the author of Rock Lee have such funny comedy yet allows for such great character development each chapter, truly a genius

Because it's not about Naruto or Sasuke.

What's everyone favorite naruto moment?
Shikamaru vs Temari nuff said.
On Part 2 at 4:45. This is Shikamaru's true face. Unlike Sasuke(who tries too hard to be cool), Shikamaru is a natural badass.
Apart from that I am hyped to see Rock Lee anime.
Lol at the Bleach fanboys comments.

Ladies and Gentlemen, there is a reason Bleach was replaced by this. Please watch it, I am and I know it's gonna make me laugh.
I dunno.. I'm worried about the anime. The manga only has 10 chapters and only comes once a month. Meaning, it will be mostly written by the anime staff.

Yeah, it still gives me great joy whenever I think of that. Bleach was cancelled and replaced by a Naruto spinoff.
Oh, how the mighty have fallen.
The naruto Spinoff is finally online with subs on narutoget. I'm off to watch it.
Edit:
Watched the episode
! The second episode was the better of the two. Especially Lee's Harem technique. And Neji. Neji was fun.
Rock Lee's Full-Power Springtime of Youth Episode 1: http://takafansubs.com/index.php
LOL 1st Rock lee episode was hilarious especially with the dog poo xD
Anyone else notice Captain Yamato's random appearances?
I thought it was ok but average if you compare it to the manga. I definetely liked the second episode more.
I really love the opening and ending.
Speaking of opening I have found this.

That was awesome
If anyone thinks live action anime is good let me remind you of dragonball douche the movie and the fist of the north star.
Argh! Kenshiros image is ruined!!!!
I actually liked DB evolution.

The only good anime to live action movie is Speed Racer. And that was a live action movie based off of a stupid awesome dub.
