Years and years of good storytelling were mutilated? Or just years and years of fanon that many people in the fandom build on their heads, overemphasizing certain parts of the manga while ignoring, downplaying or overlooking other parts. Honestly, I think many people in this forum should look...

It’s a problem in many fights on part II admittedly (especially most of the fights involving any of the Uchiha in general), but Madara takes the cake because the author wasn’t even bothering with any plausible way of hand-waving the violations to the rules he previously established (using...

Not exactly, Naruto was keeping up with his Limbo clones without much problem just with his Kage Bunshin and Sasuke was destroying the meteors with his Susanoo. Also, neither one was completely aware or had perfected all the abilities the Sage had given them (like Naruto’s flight or Sasuke’s...

Honestly, I think the environment on her family being unfit for the learning of someone with her meek personality might have played a part in her not progressing much at the beginning, rather than only lack of talent itself. But it’s ultimately only speculation on my part and unconfirmed by the...

When I mean worse fighter I don’t mean that he got weaker. In terms of raw power he was still a monster, but he looked way less skillful than he did before acquiring the Ten Tails. Instead of something pragmatic like using any of the “instant kill” Rinnegan techniques that he displayed before...

Ok, I have to reread that chapter because I don’t remember Hashirama having the chakra rods. In any case, I understand Madara had to be very powerful or otherwise the forming of the Alliance would not be justified. I just think the author went too far with it and it eventually broke my...

Yes, Sasuke was one of the most mishandled characters in the manga. I didn’t really disliked him in part I (I even understood his reasons to a degree when he left to join Orochimaru and thought that people calling him emo was too harsh given what he suffered), but I definitely started to hate...

You make fair points here, so I’m not going to contend those. Still, I maintain that Madara’s power level at the point of his Rinne Tensei resurrection was completely broken. Yes he got a trashing from the bijuu. A trashing that was essentially negated because: a) it didn’t even weaken or...

I enunciated that poorly. More accurately would have been to say “abilities that no other shinobi possessed before they unlocked them”. Remember that Madara was mentioned to be the first person who developed a Magenkyo Sharingan (which admittedly doesn’t makes much sense later, given how the...

Yes, I know there are fans with genuine grievances about the girls that aren’t related to the pairings. The thing is that, given the online storm after the ending and that a lot of the… well, crap that I have seen in multiple forums, message boards, social media and even comments sections (on...

Honestly, I find the power levels of both Madara and Hashirama in the war very problematic: They break the power curve of the manga completely (which was already in bad shape after Pain) and don’t really make sense in relation to anything that was shown before them. The fact that they are...

I understand your point here. Honestly, while I’m a shipper, I have always found that tendency you mention there as incredibly annoying: Some fans over-exalting their preferred love interest while minimizing the other female characters in the story. It’s unfortunately not exclusive to NH neither...

Mmmm... I’m not sure. Ino and her seem to be on the same tier on general terms, although as you put it, it is indeed the lowest among their peers. Ino seems better as a support ninja, but Hinata seems better as a fighter. In any case is probably better to drop that discussion, as it ultimately...

Ok, I have some mixed feelings about that. On one hand, I wasn’t really interested in another filler arc, especially given its odd placement as it essentially interrupts the battle with Madara at the darkest hour. On the other hand, I wanted to know more about Fuu, given that the author...

That’s admittedly wishful thinking on my part, based on the description of the Juho Soshiken from the databook (a technique passed down the main family that requires extremely precise chakra control and is essentially a one-hit kill, somewhat believable given it seems to be a form of shape...
