i get critiquing plot holes and power differences/disadvantages and systemic things like sexism and sexualization/fetishization and racism in manga and stories in general, and i also understand loving your favorite character and wanting a certain outcome for them, but it's always a little bonkers to me that people geniuenly believe they could have come up with better endings or outcomes than the authors themselves... like i know people get attached to their favs and everything but manga and story telling is an artform and it's art that's created by a real life person who chooses to share their story with you there is no "better" ending that you could have come up with because you couldn't have come up with those characters in the first place! sure you think you could worm them around in better scenarios but even that is wishful thinking because you couldn't have, wouldn't have, and didn't come up with the world and scenes around them to navigate them in canon in the first place! idk i get wishful thinking and hopes and cracking jokes and fix-it fics and ships all that but sometimes i feel like people need to be humble and take a step back lol.... it's not your story and there's nothing for you to change, much less publicly scream about how the author fucked up just bc your favorite character didnt end up how you wanted them to.... and if u feel that strongly just like... do it in your own little online or irl community lol there's no need to scream on the internet every 3 months about how u think the mangaka who gave u the character u love so much is a piss poor artist

I remember how fun the scene of Sasuke introducing Mai to his Kasugayama family. But, not this:

Yuki's reactions to Shingen's flirtings never disappoint HAHAHA

I feel like I should at some point make a collection of it 🤣

itachi saying “you’ve made the mistake in assuming i’m a patient man” and “go on, make it happen” are sending my coochie into overdrive, max acceleration, full throttle speed bc she is ROARING.

I'm rewatching Naruto right now, and I know that in still only 30 episodes in, but why the fuck were people calling Sasuke bitchy? Honestly, Naruto was way worse why are y'all coming for Sasuke's ass???

NARUTO AU: What if SNS is in a Danmei?

Who is this cold, beauty? (Semi-full colour)

Naruto now has a new goal: Impressing Challenging this mysterious beauty.

<Hi I am currently moving thus I will be semi- (ish) IA.

But today I have been hit by a new inspo: an AU where SNS is a senior and junior pair. (Lol still making SNS fall in love in different ways is always so fun). So I did this little spread :) at least semi-coloured.

It is quite a popular trope in the Danmei genre, and I love it just as much. Sasuke would fit a cold, beautiful senior whom everyone admires (plus is super skilled), and Naruto be that junior who is still in training, has finally met his first crush. At the beginning, Naruto is behind and less talented among his peers, but through the power of love, he will become great! (Excuse my prompts I am trying my best)

Drawing Naruto in this style is very fun. I picture him having fluffy, long hair. And Sasuke would have this traditional long, silky black hair. Sasuke's build is leaner than Naruto as his skills requires him to be more quick and precise (he is really good with the sword even in Canon Naruto), while the shape of Naruto is more square to me (?) More power and muscle and endurance>

[umbraria]

Yep I said I was going to do it

[rozaceous]

pushing my way through the next ch of tcba, as effortful as walking into the wind during a snowstorm, but what gives me consistent delight is how much kabuto and sasuke can't stand each other

[nartml]

sakura pulling up in the "who sasuke loves most" competition but Naruto Uzumaki is already there

[sasukeless]

Have people considered the possibility that one can make mistakes, fuck up, do or say the wrong thing and - wait for it - not be a horrible person still? Still have done good and cared? Might actually be a rather decent person who erred?

I think fandom discourse and just general irl discourse around this stuff is very funny.

Yes this is about Kakashi haters because they all seem to think his imperfection and faults make him a shitty guy. This is not at all to say you have to like the guy either - it’s just to say this doesn’t make his character inherently a bad person or teacher. And I struggle to think of any adult in Sasuke’s life post-massacre who cares for him the way Kakashi did.

This is why being a Kakashi and Sasuke fan is annoying because there’s so many pro-Sasuke Kakashi haters and vice versa. How are you gonna recognize Konoha sucks and simultaneously dismiss the profound ways in which it fucked Kakashi up and how much it would take to undo that? Man’s been a shinobi since age 5 and then proceeded to have a horribly traumatic existence for the rest of his formative years into adulthood and you expect him to be the perfect sensei and counsellor for the only two shinobi likely more fucked up than he is. And refuse to acknowledge all the ways he subverts the expectations when he does, and actually does take care of his students and cares about them? Doesn’t actually trauma dump on Sasuke because what exactly does Sasuke, or any of team 7, know about him? Yeah, not much at all because he doesn’t talk about himself and it’s a big sin he tells Sasuke he’s also experienced profound loss when desperate to get him to resist the pull of the dude who wants to turn Sasuke into a skin suit. He probably should have talked more to Sasuke about his life and experiences, if anything. And how are you gonna support Kakashi who was so very stomped on and used by the system and hate Sasuke for wanting to change it? Neither makes sense.

Gives the impression that anyone who doesn’t react the way you deem correct or who isn’t radical enough is just bad and evil - and this applies to anti- and pro-Sasuke and anti- and pro-Kakashi people equally. These characters are both complex, nuanced, wonderful and flawed. Dissecting the show with psychology and sociology is fine and whatever but then acting like the characters should behave in some accordant way to be good or moral and like it’s black and white just doesn’t make sense because we don’t expect that in real life and media would be very boring if we expected that in fiction.

It’s very purity culture adjacent, the need for neat boxes and perfect representations of things.
