“Thanks to you, Iruka sensei, we have guard duty covered with enough shinobi.” “No, that was all you, Kakashi-san.” “No, I didn’t do anything. I just helped a little. It’s all thanks to the bonds Naruto forged. Naruto’s here, and that’s why everyone is here today.”

*Minato and Rin praising Obito*

Obito: Thanks, but I really want to hear Kakashi praise me. *adresses Kakashi*

Kakashi: *error, system down, has to look away.*

Kakashi's little surprised sound, the way he widens his eyes, like 😭😭. What's wrong baby? You always have something to say about Obito, don't be shy.

The way Obito wanted to hear praise from Kakashi, hoping he had impressed him 🥺🥺

Low quality Naruto and Sasuke are so adorable I can't-

[faerie-fang]

been watching naruto for the first time and i feel so so emotional about itachi

itachi who took the slaughter of his clan upon himself because it meant sasuke would be spared, knowing this would turn him into a monster in the eyes of his village the world and his little brother

itachi who’s father’s last words were “i’m still proud of you, you are truly a kind child” itachi who wept with a blade held against his mothers back

itachi who never tried to explain the true meaning of his actions to sasuke in life, who planted to seed of hatred in sasuke in the hopes that sasukes drive for revenge would make him more powerful (itachi who created one of the most powerful shinobi of his little brother)

itachi who wouldn’t let sasuke believe he was perfect, itachi who didn’t ask for forgiveness

itachi who in death trusted that sasuke was not lost, that sasuke could still be saved, itachi who understood that sasuke was one side of a coin, who trusted his brother trusted naruto trusted that sasuke would be okay

and sasuke, who feels so alone so lost so vindicated in his anger at the leaf, at his brother, at the world, who was protected at every turn by his itachi. sasuke who was always precious to his brother, always held with care, always loved, even if he never knew the full breadth of it until itachi was truly gone.

I was recently watching a video on misinterpreted characters in Naruto and while there were some I definitely agreed with less so with others. Take Obito for example. It's not that I think his arc is misinterpreted its just that I think it was poorly handled. I personally really dislike the trope of bringing a dead character back to life for the sake of moving the plot forward. I've very rarely seen a case in which it was done well and with intention. Usually it's because the writer is kinda lazy and sees that a character is really popular with the fan base and wants to generate buzz. Personally I think the mystery surrounding Tobi and the man behind the mask was a driving force in the story that made it really interesting. Sort of like a horror movie villian in the background. Someone in the shadows manipulating all of the events in the story. And I think having that reveal be Madara all along would have been a much better approach. Sort of a supped up version of Pain that would question Narutos ideology even further. Force him to come to terms with what happened to the Uchiha and the fact that his village perpetuated and should be held responsible for much of the pain and suffering in the story. Let Obito be this child soldier who died far too young and sort of a martyr like character that, much like Hashiramas brother, was killed perpetuating a cycle of violence that seemed never-ending. That what the villages are, and what they stand for isn't actually helping or making anything better. Maybe even bring Kakashi into the conversation and challenge the fact that he is using the power and ability of his dead friend to serve the village that got him killed in the first place. As much as I love Itachi as a character I think maybe they should have just gone the route of him being as ruthless in Shippuden as he was in the original series. But sort of put more emphasis on how young he was and how being a double double agent, and the suicide of his closest friend kind of broke his mind. And how being manipulated by the council and the third hokage led him to believe it was the only option. But he still no matter what couldn't bring himself to kill his brother. We're constantly told throughout the series how powerful he is and how he might be on par with Madara or even surpass him. I don't think it's a stretch to assume he could have carried out the massacre by himself. And then maybe have Madara being this character that decided the only way to bring about real change and stop the cycle of violence be the infinite tsukuyomi. Because the powers that be are simply not interested in change. They benefit too much from the current system.

I don't understand the rivalry between one piece and naruto fans. Watching one piece is about enjoying the adventure, friendship and comedy. Watching naruto is about emotional attachment to the characters and getting ur mental health completely DESTROYED

Obsessed with the fact that Sasuke wore his sluttiest deep v billowy white shirt in the wind to see his situationship after 3 years. Amazing stuff right there.
