the problem with wanting to Fix naruto is that in the absolute ideal i wouldn't want any of the terrible shit to happen in the first place so there'd be little conflict or drama or plot beyond what would at that point be a slice of life anime about a bunch of little freaks in their silly village and where's the fun in that.

the other extreme is i accept all the shit up to near the end of shippuden or smthn and then just tweak a few lil things but at that point there's still a lot of bs and likely a lot of characters left poorly written (kishimoto learn to write women challenge) and plots left hanging. the balance and almost Playing God in deciding what stays and what goes and what gets changed and how much it gets changed is interesting to think abt and can lead to so many different paths that then it's hard to choose. what makes a story Good? is there an objective answer? i guess at the end of the day of the question is like. what do u want the final outcome to be. what's important. what events, aspects, specific scenes, choices etc were so maddening it made u want to Fix It in the first place and working back from there. and at that point I also don't know if i'd feel more or less insane for having 'fixed' it (which is subjective) or not and the work i would've had to put into it mentally. i may already think abt it a Lot but thats just to placate how some of the nonsense makes me foam at the mouth. and after all that. why put all that work into an early 2000s media that already had its ending and made its choices when i could just as easily go insane abt some original ideas???

but my original ideas aren't sasuke

anyway i think i finally understand AUs now. welcome to the beginning of my 10 different naruto timelines/universes,

#welcome to hell #so really all this post accomplished was the thought process of fic writers and authors and subjective vs objective #and the folly of man (caring abt naruto anyway)#my best comparison of like. my feelings on wanting to fix naruto is like. its like being a skyrim mod maker.#i could expand but i feel like if u know u know.#long post ////#ok one more problem: im not creative enough for original ideas. + no one wld care abt the og ideas so thered be no one to share thoughts w #and even if i were creative or decided to try giving substance to my own silly ideas regardless of my ability and lack of potential audienc #theres the whole thing with me and always having ideas and starts to things and being able to come up with little specifics #but the like. the stuff in between. what ties it all together? bad at that. if its a book with people and theres interactions??? dialogue??#i also lack the motivation and energy and all that to continue and/or finish anything ive ever started ever #that. may just be the adhd. but still.#anyway sometimes i wish there was a career where i could just sit on a couch somewhere and spout ideas abt..like.. anything #and ppl would sit around me maybe behind windows or smthn as they observe and jot it all down nodding their heads #and maybe they cld pipe up with suggestions or expansions on my ideas yknow throw ideas around make them better #and then we take all that at the end of the day and we deliver them out to whoever it may be useful for. the end.
