First of all, sorry if there is already a thread for this, I didn't feel like searching...
Do you feel that Naruto would be better off in a seinen magazine than in Shonen Jump?
In my opinion Kishimoto is a great writer, especially when it comes to speeches; so many of his characters' quotes are memorable. But I can almost feel the restrictions that the shonen genre has put on him, like all that peace and hatred stuff (the way they're handled, not the concepts themselves) and the (almost-)no-major-character-death policy. I think that the same story would be on a higher level were it serialized in, for example, Young Jump.
What are your thoughts on this?
