Hey everyone! So yesterdays video got flagged for no reason what so ever which makes it so I can’t earn money from it! So we made a couple of changes and re uploaded, sorry for the confusion

The biggest plot hole in Naruto is how Tenten got those mirrors on the ceiling to cheat during the chunin exam without the proctors noticing.

Kishimoto spent years claiming the appearance similarities between Naruto and Minato were coincidental and he absolutely was not Naruto's father.

Is it ever explained how people can rip the eyeball out of someone else's head, shove it into their own eye socket and it just works as a functioning eye, magic abilities and all?

A plot hole you missed was obito placing a perfect jinchuuriki under genjutsu for years with base sharingan. They say its impossible for perfect jinchuuriki to be under genjutsu because of the partner method. Even more, if obito's genjutsu was that good why not use it on naruto and killer bee instead of spending like 100 episodes fighting them.

Hiruzen not taking care of Naruto like his own child is the biggest and most glaring plothole that Kishimoto retroactively created by going down the "muh protagonist is related to the most awesomest characters" trope.

Not sure if this is a plothole, but the fact that Neji was told he was completely wrong about life being fated by naruto and how your circumstances at birth dont matter, hard work prevails, etc. , only for us to find out Naruto inherited the genes of a clan with one of the craziest Chakra reserves, has the strongest tailed beast sealed inside him by his hokage father upon birth, and is the reincarnation of A. LITERAL. DEMIGOD. Edit: I just learned what a retcon is lol

I definitely agree with the Danzo one being a plothole. Not only would Danzo have been the most obvious choice even without use of hypnosis, he should have been a much better-seeming choice than Tsunade. Tsunade was, at the time, an inactive missing-nin with a gambling addiction. Why was she the council's only choice?

24:55 it gets even worse Naruto being an Uzumaki would attract more attention because the other villages massacred the Uzumaki clan because they were afraid of them

Why no one in the village ever figured out who Naruto was is always going to be infuriating to me. The fact that common sense could tell who Naruto's parents were and somehow the village never figured it out. Did the villagers have tunnel vision or something?

The biggest plothole of the entire series is why hagoromo never cared to go into Madara's mind to tell him that Infinite Tsukuyomi aint a jutsu of bringing peace to the world. Instead it is a jutsu for summoning Kaguya. Dude literally said a whole ass backstory to naruto and sasuke but never said it to madara 💀💀💀💀💀

The Kurama helping Naruto one never felt like too big of a plothole to me. We find out that only 1/2 the Kyuubi was sealed in Naruto, with the other half being sealed in Minato with the Reaper Death Seal. It’s possible imo that Kurama wasn’t entirely certain if he would reform if Naruto died because no other tailed beast had ever been split in half like he had. Hence deciding that his best bet was the slow & steady method of “full possession + manifestation”

In defense of #8 Madaras insane Rube Goldberg revival plan, he seemingly lived in isolation for over 50 years after his fight with Madara. With his later years being completely alone in dank & dark cave with black and white Zetsu as roommates. You’d probably start having some weird ideas too lol

At least with Itachi not curing his illness I would theorize he wanted to die after the massacre and in his depression contracting an illness that would slowly and painfully so going through with finding a cure for his disease is something Itachi saw as undeserved on the likes of him for his deeds.

Still want to address the plot hole that Obito didn't need to declare the 4th Ninja war, he could've used the Zetsu's to transform into ninja from other villages , since it was said that their transformation was perfect, even down to replicating the same chakra as the person they transformed into. With that, the Zetsu clones would then attack other ninja villages and have all the villages declare war on each other. Then in the confusion Obito could then capture Naruto and Bee.

From what I've seen of Naruto in the earlier episodes when he still couldn't control the Nine Tailed Fox whenever he would get really angry he would start turning into the Nine Tailed Fox. If the people in the hidden leaf village knew that if Naruto got too angry the Nine Tailed Fox would start to emerge you'd think they try to treat him a little better. I'm not sure if that would count as a plot hole.

Not only did Naruto fail the graduation exam multiple times, meaning that he had the opportunity to take it. An opportunity that I'm certain, if a student could request a graduation exam when self considered ready, Sasku would have requested one years before. Plus, Naruto was in the same class, same students that he graduated with, from the beginning.

Another plot hole that really bothers me, is that Kabuto states you need genetic material of whoever you want to reanimate, but a few of the people he reanimate wouldn’t have had any to use, such as Sasori and Deidara

One thing that has always bothered me is that Edo Tensei is supposed to grant ‘infinite chakra’, and yet Tobirama complained that he was only able to make two shadow clones (shouldn’t you be able to make infinite?), and claimed that he couldn’t teleport to Naruto and free him from Madara’s woodstyle because he was “out of chakra” 🤨 Edit: Sorry, it was Edo Tensei Minato who said he was out of chakra because his last flying hirashin drained him of his last reserves. How do you run out of infinite chakra?

Obito staying out of the hidden leaf because of “jiraiya” is hilarious

The actual biggest plot hole in Naruto is the hashirama cells being used to create white zestu, (we even see a white hashirama coming out of the wall when obito explains the white zetsu) only to be explained that the white zetsu and black zetsu is kagaras creation. Even though Naruto’s chakra used to respond to white zetsu to creat trees because there hashirama cells, we literally see evidence that there hashirama cell, yet later they scrap that entire plot point just to say there kaguyas creations. The same with black zetsu when we literally see madara create him with our own eyes but gets explained a way as kaguyas creation. And if they weren’t hashirama cell, then madara shouldn’t have gained the renigan because that was what was used to create white zetsu as well as give madara the renigan

The amount of plot armour that sasuke had especially against deidara always tilted me like really hard, everything was convenient for sasuke in that fight

20:45 Based on what I've heard, the theory behind Naruto being able to fail the test three times while remaining in the same class as everyone else is that schools in Japan often conduct tests every three months. However, this is mere speculation since the series was created for a Japanese audience, and perhaps they could relate to it more.

Imagine if Tenten somehow acquired the anti-sage mode bonk stick and became a pivotal character in the fight against Madara… until for plot reasons the stick gets broken and can’t do that one thing anymore because that’s just how manga writers would handle that sort of scene

Remember how we agreed boruto is not cannon

The plot hole that infuriated me the most by far was Madara breaking the Resurrection Jutsu because he knew the hand signs. Tobirama invented the jutsu, and yet doesn't break the contract from his end when Orochimaru resurrects him during his attack on Konoha. Also, I admit it has been quite a while since I've watched Naruto, is it ever stated when Madara (or Orochimaru for that matter) ever picked up that knowledge? And idk if you'd call it a plot hole, but the massive contradiction between the messaging of the beginning and rest of the series on destiny bothers me so much. Look at the Naruto vs Neji fight at the Chunin Exams. Neji talks about how your birth defines your role, and your role defines your destiny. Naruto disagrees, and when he wins you're supposed to take that as his worldview winning out. Then Kishimoto spends the rest of the series saying that Naruto is wrong. Every single kid in Naruto's class in Konoha grows up to be just like their parents, including Naruto. In the world of Naruto, who your parents are is literally all that matters when defining your destiny. The lack of consistency frustrates me.

I still think Naruto should have been secretly adopted by the Yamanaka clan instead of made an orphan. I don't think having one more blond kid in their clan would have stood out and they're literally the best choice for finding out what's going on in Naruto's head with Kurama.

If Naruto spent 3 years at the academy. How’d he not know who Neji, Lee or Tenten is when they meet at the chunin exams

Why wasn’t Pain and Konan bothered by Masked Madara’s character change? He was serious then he started acting dump and clowny? Why

I'd like to add onto the Leaf Academy Graduation one. How did Rock Lee ever pass? Naruto says he failed three times because he couldn't perform the Clone Jutsu. It's well established that Lee can't use Ninjutsu or Genjutsu and the Clone Jutsu is ninjutsu. So again, how did Rock Lee ever graduate from the Academy?

Now, imagine for a second if you will, that they gave that nature chakra expelling stick to Might Guy and he proceeded to break it in half and connect a chain between them. Night Guy weilding nunchucks taking on Madara

Regarding Naruto failing the final exam, I always thought it was a matter of him getting a second and third chance a relatively short time later. So the way I interpreted it, it wasn't a year between each time he failed the exam, but maybe something closer to a month where he was given a little more time to figure it out. As for Madara being revived, my theory is that with enough chakra a person can bypass time limits on Rinne Rebirth and even restore a body to youth, but the chakra required would be massive. Considering they were gathering the tailed beasts, its possible by utilizing tailed beast chakra or becoming the Juubi's host Nagato might have been able to do it.

Another head cannon thing is for the Rinne Rebirth with Madara, I think it worked the way it did because the body he was revived in was his younger body whereas everyone who got revived by Pain got revived in their current body.

The thing about Itachi not killing Danzo is what I was questioning for 5 months now since I finished shippuden. And also that nobody knew who Naruto was is stupid, not only that, but how he lived alone, why Kakashi or Mikoto never visited him, and a lot of other stuff about his childhood. The only explanation I came up with that this way is convinient for the plot which annoys me a lot

The other day I was thinking about Pakkun (Kakashi's ninja hound). He has a headband... how did he get it? Did he graduate from regular ninja academy? Did he go to doggy ninja academy? WE NEED TO KNOW

Madara being such a plot hole/armor character is the reason I did not like him

You're over thinking the Madara putting his trust in 2 children. Madara was a loner and an old man at this point, he had no one else to put his trust into except for Zetsu who cannot use Rinnegan or Sharingan. Pain was a fail safe if Obito failed, Madara suspected Obito would fail since he was emotionally driven (through love) and had a chaotic personality whereas Pain was driven by vengeance which is much easier to manipulate and is a stronger emotion. Madara orchestrated Rin's death to strengthen Obito's resolve so he can be easier to manage emotionally since now his path isn't one of revenge but redemption (or so he thinks). Also the 2nd fail safe was Zetsu taking over Obito's body to revive him. Madara thought about the plan but the biggest hiccup was Pain turning, which is actually a significant moment in the series since it shows Naruto's diplomacy and winning vs an opponent that was far stronger than him without having to fight. Naruto's words convinced Pain to act selflessly and resurrect the victims of Konoha which is a powerful gesture. The plan may sound stupid on paper but Madara had no other option, this was more of a 60/40 plan for him, he had a 60% chance of success and if he did get resurrected then gg Shinobi world, if not...then no one would be none the wiser. Except Zetsu was overlooking everything and he was pulling the strings all along so he had to make sure Madara was revived so he can revive Kaguya.

The problem with the deep ocean isn't breathing, it's the pressure. Could Kisame survive an entire ocean of weight pressing on him? Plus he still has lungs and would get the bends, but I suppose decompression is easier when you have gills

I said it before the video got flagged so I'll say it again: Why was Danzo not executed for trying to kill Hiruzen?

Madara giving Nagato his Rinnegan always bugged me. How did it happen? Did he randomly find an Uzumaki child and kidnap him to implant his eyes? Did he break into his room at night to do it? Even then its a huge risk as Nagato grew up in a nation that was constantly a war zone. He could have been killed. Hell, he was a war orphan when Jiraiya found him by chance as a kid. The more you think about Naruto the less it makes sense.

Naruto is so badly written the entire story feels like the plot hole. The more of these videos you watch the more you realize Kishimoto literally can't write above a 50IQ level.

Naruto’s parentage being a secret smacks of Kishimoto initially wanting him to be something like Ace from One Piece where his mother was a discreet civilian wife of a famous man, but at some point plans changed and Kushina had to become this ultra badass as well. I’d actually be interested in seeing you do a deep dive into how and when did the Uzumaki go from just being Naruto’s surname to this incredibly important Ninja Clan. 🤔

Kakashi could use Kamui on himself - he did so while fighting Obito. He Kamuied himself back to the "real world" once. And even if he couldn't use it on himself, he can use it like an inch in front of him and just make it big enough.

There is no greater asspull than Obito “dying” in the cave that just so happened to be Madara’s secret base.

I feel like the Kurama helping naruto could also be explained that maybe Kurama just never knew he'd reform if his host died, or thought it'd be easier to try and coerce naruto into relying on Kuramas chakra if he saw how powerful it was allowing him to leak more and more out and eventually be freed

Wood style jutsu is easily one of the most wtf powerful jutsu's in the entire series easily top 3 for me. As the story went on wood style was seemingly able to do well......anything the biggest being the tailed beast sealing and even negation. It's so unbelievably versatile and has hacks for literal miles.

I always thought that Itachi's sickness and how he couldve just cured it and delay it so that Sasuke could kill him, was just a way of atonement for him. He killed his family, and every other Uchiha (obviously with Obito's help) but when he got that sickness he couldve not only simply use it as a way to atone for what he had done, for him to suffer and not cure it so that he wouldnt just have simply waited for a way for him to get killed by Sasuke. Maybe it was his way of asking for forgiveness, and although remorse was thrown out the window, the guilt of killing an entire clan and still being one of the ones to live must of weighed heavy on him.

It bothers me greatly that the whole village just decided that out of fear of destruction, that they would treat Naruto (who could have destroyed the village if he wanted to) like absolute crap.

I think the biggest plot hole is Naruto being alone for 11 years. They showed us how caring both Pervy Sage and Kakashi is for Naruto. I have no doubt if Kishi had a bit of forethought. At least one of them would have been there for Naruto in some fashion, then just well leaving him to fend for himself.

In the case of Itachi, calling it a chakra illness kind of differentiates it from a mere bodily illness. Maybe the fact that it's his chakra using the izanagi to recreate his body that makes it to where the chakra illness never actually goes away.

I think that Kurama didn’t want to let Naruto die because Kurama knows that half his chakra is sealed in the Shinagami and doesn’t know if he would reform due to his other half still existing elsewhere.

I have a headcannon for why/how Jiraiya wasn't reincarnated. He learned a sealing jutsu from Minato, Kushina, and/or Mito for sealing his soul preemptively, expecting to die fighting Pain and prevent himself from being revived. As for why Minato or Hiruzen never did this, it's because they died unexpectedly. And this is a high level sealing jutsu not many people can perform. But it would explain why there were no Uzumakis revived despite their sealing jutsus being some of the strongest.

Why didn’t Madara use the Six Paths Jutsu to make six puppets for himself to enact his plan? If he really was “Madara”, wouldn’t Chakra range be laughable to him? I know he only awakened the Rinnegan much later, but he still could have done this much like Nagato still did it despite being a walking skeleton.

The biggest plot hole in Naruto is the Rinnegan transplant. Listen : Nagato is 4 years older than Obito. Now I want to know when did Madara implant "his" Rinnegan because he still has his eyes when Obito was like 12/13 years old but Nagato awoke the Rinnegan when he was a child. Jiraiya left Nagato (and his team) when he was 12/13 years old while Obito was still 8/9 years old and he rescued Obito when he was 12/13 so when Nagato was already 16/17. So when did that happen? Plus, I may be wrong, but Madara said he awoke his Rinnegan few seconds before he died so he didn't have them when Nagato awoke them. And I'm always wondering how did he know that Nagato will be the perfect fit? Was it Zetsu? How did he or Zetsu implanted them? This part of the story is a little sketchy. And like you said, what was the reason to give it to Nagato? Plus his plan totally failed since Obito wasn't the one wanting to bring him back to life. He would surely have continued to team up with Pain/Nagato and made the Mugen Tsukuyomi by himself so Kabuto was definitely another plot hole. Kabuto knows how sensitive it is to keep the control over certain ninjas especially the strongest. He was a bit struggling to hold his control over Itachi and Nagato but he risked summoning Madara that he boosted to make him stronger? That was a total out of character move. But I can be wrong, I don't know.

28:07 Shizune??? Where did that come from???? I mean no offense, but I dont remember Shizune (not Tsunade) ever being mentioned to have the ability to recreate lost organs. When was this mentioned?

11:45 To be fair. There are TWO scenes in the war arc were Kakashi uses long range Kamui to escape the dimension. He had to crouch or curl his body into a smaller space. Then use his hand to block his vision from any further point. And was able to create the long range portal directly ontop of himself and escape the dimension.(Long range Kamui creates a portal on the target of his vision.) And he only did this after years of using the ability. And the first time he did was clearly a hail marry attempt. Which explains why he never did it before. Using kamui on Minito's rasangan before it fully crushes his chest. stopping the nail pain shot at him before it pierces his eye. Are all clear examples he's able to create a portal close enough to himself. And he did put Killer bee in full transformation state into the dimension and then back out again when they initially fight the first stage of the tentails. So if Kakashi can use long range Kamui to send other people entirely whole into the dimension and he can use it to escape it. There's no reason to assume he can't use it to travel into the dimension. Madara using it with zero prior experience and not using anything to focus his vision directly infront of or ontop of himself however is most definitely a "Because Madara" Plothole.

I always assumed Kurama didn't want to die. Whether that is because dying, or he was proud that he hadn't died since he was born and didn't want to break the winning streak. Possessing Naruto gets him out without reappearing disorientated in a random location.

Why didn't Kurama kill naruto using sage energy we have seen Kurama collect natural energy for naruto

For the Madara using Kamui, I always viewed that as a chakra control issue. That is Obito never had a massive amount of chakra near that level and so had never developed a level of chakra control that could properly manipulate the amount of chakra that the ten tails had. Madara on the other hand even before he had Hashirama's cells had a massive amount of Chakra, and had a fairly long time to get used to controlling such a massive amount of Chakra (This man died of old age and has surely got decades of training for using large amounts of Chakra). As such, when Madara became a ten tails and had Kamui, he could still warp because he has a far higher skill level of manipulating huge amounts of Chakra. Furthermore I don't believe Obito was ever depicted as being a skilled Chakra manipulator. So just like Naruto who used to be unable to use even basic techniques because he couldn't control Chakra well (despite having arguably massive amounts of chakra to do so at the time), Obito who couldn't control his Chakra well anymore couldn't pull off a seemingly basic Dōjutsu that he was used to doing for decades. However Madara using Kakashi's eye to get into the Kamui space makes no fucking sense.

We saw how Sakura was treated in the parallel dimension from the Road to Ninja film where her parents were dead while Naruto's were alive, and she got a glimpse of how Naruto lived for years since Kurama attacked Konoha with the help of Obito. And while Naruto was treated like a hero after the Pain arc, he certainly should have been treated better in his childhood like Sakura probably was in that other dimension. The fact that nobody realised that the lone Namikaze clan member and the lone Uzumaki clan member in Konoha, who were living together as a married couple with a child on the way, were the two ninja that Kurama killed because they sacrificed themselves to protect their only child from being killed by Kurama astounds me. Everyone saw what Naruto looked like, what his hair and eye colours were, and should have either figured out that he was Minato's son (seriously, how many adult ninja in Konoha had hair as yellow as Naruto and Minato?) or have seen photos of Minato and Kushina throughout the village. Another plothole in regards to Naruto himself was how he and Karin had no idea that the other was a member of the Uzumaki clan (Karin had Kushina's red hair, though Naruto didn't know that because he unfortunately was too young to remember Kushina) or that they were both the only living members remaining from that clan. Even Kakashi, who knew Kushina back when she was alive, should have seen Karin's red hair and been reminded of Kushina. Same with Sasuke when Karin first introduced herself to him. He should have gone "Uzumaki? So you are from the same clan as him, then?" while being reminded of Naruto. And even in a flashback to the Forest of Death part of the Chunin exam where Sasuke first met Orochimaru, Karin was also participating in that same Chunin exam and was infatuated by him (much like every girl in the academy because Sasuke was the mysterious bad boy type who no longer had a family and became a lone wolf of sorts). She at least should have also heard the name Naruto Uzumaki once during that part and began questioning if there were other members of her clan out there somewhere (though Naruto inherited more from Minato than Kushina, he was still the child of an Uzumaki which keeps him connected to that clan).

I thought Izanagi was like a small time reversal tech. You could rewrite a certain amount of time from where you activate the ability. Madara activates it so he doesn't take damage from the last hit. Danzo uses it everytime he is hit so he isnt hit. It could only redo a minute of time or so. From what I recall.

My fan theory for Naruto failing the academy exam is that you can take the exam whenever you want. You can take them whenever but if you haven't gone through the classes then you're obviously disadvantaged. That's how you get the super talented ninja who graduate very young.

My head canon of how I cope with the plot holes because copium is important as a lifelong Naruto fan: Why Itachi doesn't heal himself? - My guess was always that his illness was more complex than we understood. Danzo can simply erase the moment he dies but Itachi can't do that. His illness being chakra in nature and also affecting his eyes and his lungs it would be a complex izanagi and he can only do it twice since I highly doubted Obito would have given him more sharingan. For the same reason Izanagi users didn't just use it to make more sharingan, there has to be limits to what Izanagi can do. Why Kurama kept giving Naruto Chakra? - I think Kurama is well aware that he is only half of himself and thus doesn't know exactly what happens if he dies inside Naruto. Would his Chakra reform properly if its only half. Why Madara can use Kamui when Obito couldn't? - Madara was also able to master Sage mode in seconds, I'd imagine he can easily figure it out Kamui that quickly Why Madara is able to go into the Kamui Dimension - I think Madara doesn't actually use Kamui the same way Obito does in that way. Obito can partial enter his dimension and Kakashi can't but Kakashi can't send things into the dimension. I guessing Madara just sent his entire self into the dimension by targeting the Kamui at himself. The Sage stick? - As hilarious as it is to think of Naruto chasing Madara with a stick, I always believed it was specific to toad sage mode. Why Danzo didn't rule Konoha sooner? - Danzo never had the greatest reputation and was generally a secretive person. Its possible the public didn't know how strong Danzo was at the time. Public reputation is important in choosing the Hokage which is why Kakashi was thrusted into the position instead of someone like Gai or Naruto for example. I don't think the public, at the time of Hiruzen's death, would've accepted Danzo. I would guess he worked on his presence in public much more after Hiruzen died, by that time Tsunade took over. Madara coming back in his Prime? - Yes I also subscribed to the idea that focusing Rinne Rebirth onto one individual will bring him back in his prime. Madara the orphan whisperer? - No head canon here, always though it was stupid and still is. Like Madara actually could've just been alive pulliing the strings the whole time while training Obito at the same time, it would've actually made much more sense. Its so stupid. Naruto's being the same age as the Konoha 13? - this actually annoys me more than just 1/10. Why does none of the upper class men like Neji remember Naruto or why does Naruto not know them? Why was he considered a failure even if he was so much younger than his classmates at the time? Its actually a 5/10 for me Why no one knew Naruto was Minato's son? - I always thought that the public didn't think he was just a Jinchuuruki, that he was Kurama himself in the form of a human. That he took the name Uzumaki because he only knew Rin's last name and just took it. It really depends on what Danzo said to the public. Why didn't Itachi kill Danzo? - Itachi's main goal was always whats best for the village. As much as he hated Danzo I think he still thought Danzo was absolutely necessary for the village and that killing him would cripple the village greatly. I also imagine that Hiruzen would've not taken it lightly and Itachi doesn't wanna fight Hiruzen Naruto's healing? - pretty much your explanation Obito not going back for Naruto? - Obito was also a child and probably didn't think about it. By the time he did Naruto was heavily guarded by the Anbu and Hiruzen Sasuke plot armour? - have no idea, its always annoyed me. Jiraiya being revived? - Kabuto got tired of grave digging

If Jairiya was reanimated, I could see Naruto being happy to see him again and tell him all that happened after his death. Naruto mastered Sage mode, he save the village and got the adoration he so longed for. He also convinced Nagato to change his was and redeem himself, he met both of his parents and mastered the Nine-tails Chakra.

I think the point of Pa's stick wasn't that the stick was special, it was that when your meditating and your eyes are closed, you are at peace and not focusing on your body, so you wouldn't notice it going poorly, so he would smack you and the pain is what breaks your focus and you move around due to the pain, resulting in the stopping of you absorbing nature energy and being saved.

For Danzo not taking over: that’s pretty much exactly why Itachi showed up at the start of the arc, to keep him from making any power plays.

I think that Kurama actually did like Naruto though. I might be mistaken, but his disdain for Naruto was more of a façade because he watched him grow up and be isolated which is how he started liking naruto openly anyways.

For Sasuke Surving Deidara's C0, the main problem is the time frame. Sasuke is 10-20 feet away from the C0 and summoned Manda, used genjutsu, jumped into his mouth, and then used reverse summoning jutsu all before he was disintegrated by a bomb the size of an atomic bomb that explodes at thousands of MPH minimum. If Sasuke already had something prepared in advanced, then it wouldnt be a plot hole, but he doesn’t start doing anything until AFTER the bomb already explodes.

A few plot holes that anoy me beside those you already mentioned. 1) Madara knew about a way to release himself from the edu tensi and rescind the contract but Tobirama who created the justsu had no idea about it? 2) The third coffin Orochimaru summoned 3) The fact that Minato was a perfect sage and know one on mount myoboku knew about it. 4) Minato learning to become a perfect jinchuriki while he was sealed in the ripper death seal

I don't think Madara's Rinne rebirth bringing him back to his old body is really an issue. He expected to come back after all the fighting and capturing of the tail beasts were done and probably could manage becoming the ten tail's jinchuriki to manage the infinite tsukiyomi's genjutsus because he had a mixture of Hashirama cells and was directly connected to the tree. And if he isn't needed for the infinite tsukiyomi then he could've had Obito do it since he didn't have an issue with it when he became the jinchuriki and was in his prime's body during it because of the reanimation. Maybe I need to see it again to know why him being brought back was important in his plan in the first place but I hate that part of the story lol

All I'm hearing is that Kishimoto was the real villain of the story. He MADE SURE there was war and strife💀💀

I always assumed the reason Itachi never did anything about his illness was because keeping it made it more believable that Sasuke could beat him, which is what he ultimately wanted. I'm sure I remember someone saying he had to go all out in that fight so being full strength he probably would've won. Just more convenient to keep the illness to improve Sasukes chances.

Who else saw him accidentally upload this video yesterday

I agree that no one knowing Naruto was the 4th's child is indeed a 10/10 plothole. The people of Konoha are braindead; that's the only explanation.

That's not how Izanagi is presented in the anime though or Danzo would just make himself like 16 again and gain way more power and wisdom

On Madara's Resurrection plan: I think it was Black Zetsu's plan entirely. Based on how Black Zetsu talks about his part in Shinobi history, I firmly believe that he has some kind of Kotoamatsukami-like ability to inception ideas into people's minds without leaving a trace or a breakable Genjutsu, so long as you have hatred in your heart. So I think most of what Madara, Obito, Nagato, and Kabuto in the war arc do is actually Black Zetsu's plans. But why did he needlessly unplug himself and make a super convoluted revival plan? Because Black Zetsu fucked up. When Madara was killed by Hashirama, Black Zetsu hid himself inside Madara's corpse, presumably because he knew that Madara had successfully taken a bite of Hashirama and therefore was Black Zetsu's best chance to produce a Rinnegan in over 2000 years, so he wanted to keep a close eye on that. And Madara did indeed create his Rinnegan at the end of his natural lifetime, which makes the decades Black Zetsu spent in hiding worth it, but then he realized he's trapped inside the body of someone who doesn't actually know he exists. So he has to come up with a plan reasonable enough to release himself from Madara's body without raising suspicion in Madara that he was an outside force. That plan was Madara's revival plan. It makes enough sense that Madara would go through with it for the chance to reclaim his younger body, but more importantly it would cause Madara to "create" Black Zetsu as a "manifestation of his will" for Obito and Nagato to draw from. This not only freed Black Zetsu from hiding within Madara, but also cemented him in the minds of the Akatsuki's leadership as an extension of Madara, meaning NONE OF THEM would ever question his true loyalties and he could exist in the open as a member of the Akatsuki without drawing suspicion. Black Zetsu NEVER cared about Madara. He only ever cared about creating the conditions necessary for Kaguya's return, and Madara was never an essential piece of that plan, only his Rinnegan were. Creating the situation were Madara was dead but his Rinnegan still existed gave Black Zetsu freer reign to diversify his approach to making the Eye of the Moon plan happen, and the only reason he probably manipulated Kabuto into Edo Tensei-ing Madara back in a younger body was he wanted a backup in case Obito got Talk-no-Jutsu'd, which he did, and so all the pieces were in place for Black Zetsu to spring in and bring Madara back as the vessel for Kaguya. Tl;dr Unfortunately, we gotta realize that Madara wasn't the actual mastermind of the Eye of the Moon plan; it was Black Zetsu. So all of the convoluted plots that crop up have to be looked at as if Black Zetsu was the one planning them, not Madara, Madara's Resurrection plan included.

I think Kurama was just bored in most cases and just helped Naruto for entertainment. If I can recall as long as Naruto knew he existed and could’ve asked him for his Chakra willingly or not,the seal would’ve weaken in time anyway as he got older. Remember when he confronted Nagato and his eyes were still active because of Kurama being annoyed by Nagato’s ideations lol.

Bigger Plotholes: 1. Yagura, a "perfect jinchuuriki" being controlled by Tobi who has little to no genjutsu feats. 2. Minato, someone who's never used sage mode since it took too long for him to mould chakra and that he couldn't maintain it for a long time, pulling out a seemingly "perfect" sage mode outta nowhere. 3. Itachi, someone with "poor" chakra reserves, outlasting Sasuke, someone who was touted by Kakashi to have huge chakra reserves which was further supplemented by Orochimaru's curse mark.

Holy fuck that plot hole about the village not knowing naruto was minato’s son is so bad I actually thought they always knew and just didn’t give a fuck anyways

With Itachi not killing Danzo, I could easily forgive it for his age, were it not for ALL of the times his genius was specifically remarked upon by how skilled and brilliant he was as a child. I am generally against using "did this crazy feat while super young" as a primary proxy for genius intellect because it fails to acknowledge social learning and maturity and experience needs for a lot of things, BUT, if you're going to make Itachi a brilliant leader and tactical genius in Anbu as preteen, you can't ALSO justify him being easily manipulated because he was a child.

Naruto never had the sun seal blown off of him. It returned to Hagoromo after they sealed kaguya. That's why Hagoromo at first said he couldn't do much but after receiving the seals back on his hands and his Chakra returned he was able to teleport all those people to his location.

Watching Naruto chase madara trying to beat him with a stick would have been so funny 😂😂

35:31, Orochimaru should have just had Jiraya's DNA, and used the spare White Zetsu at the end of the War Arc. Then Madara isn't blind when he's dying, he gives Naruto his eyes as Sharingan so now Naruto is Blond Gojo, (or he grafts Madara's flesh and acquires the Sharingan Kekkei Genkai like Madara did with the Hashirama Cell to acquire his healing abilities and Wood Release,) and then Naruto unites Kurama inside himself and uses Rinne Rebirth after waiting for his chakra to refill a bit, to resurrect everyone who had died in the war, including Obito, but then he also resurrects Edo Tensei Jiraya

I think Kurama helping Naruto would be because reforming probably isn't easy and possibly takes a long time. It might take Kurama decades to reform, plus by helping Naruto he would be loosening the seal. He weighed his options and decided helping Naruto would be faster

for me most infuriating plot hole was why Naruto lived alone in a first place? His well-being and layality to Konoha was matter leaf's security, basically highest possible. Did Hiruzen really thought that small child can survive on it's own? Cook, pay rent, train etc...? There are so many easy fixes, without ruining plot. Some orphanage, where he would mistreated and shunned. Basically same thing as now, except Naruto would get minimal care. Foster family, where ho would get Harry Potter treatment. But there were even better, more logical options. They would affect the plot, but they make sense. There was ophanage where Kabuto lived. That orphanage not only was financed by Konoha, but there was one of the best anbu, very caring too. I'm not sure it was canon or anime only, but Kushina knew Mikoto Uchiha. Probably had other friends. Are we saying that in ninja village, where those break the rules were considered scum, none of them would take care of Naruto if ordered? Hell, Hiruzen could adopt Naruto. We know kept an eye on him, why not go all the way?

You think itachi wanted to live, thats where you are wrong. He wanted to die. He wanted his brother to kill him. And probably felt like he deserved the pain of his disease for what he had done.

itachi was probably just too depressed about killing his whole clan that he didnt care about curing his disease

Obito as the incomplete Ten Tails' Jinchūriki was a bad plot hole.

When Madara uses Kakashis kamui to transport himself to the kamui dimension i think he is utilizing a limbo clone to target himself at range

26:00 I feel that Itachi didn’t believe he could win. Especially since he needed Obito to kill the Uchihas

I think the plot hole around the Uchiha's is bull. The Uzumaki's were viewed so dangerous that they were basically nuked but you find Uzumaki's everywhere just not in name. On the other hand everything Uchiha was wiped out? I could give it a pass on the ninjas because they keep records but there were a lot of civilians and they somehow took out every Uchiha in the world other than the main characters in the show.

Wasn’t Manda reverse summoned after Sasuke climbed in? I always figured that, the reason they both weren’t obliterated by Deidara’s last explosion was that they were only caught up in a bit of it before Sasuke could barely manage to unsummon Manda at the last second. Then, there was the fakeout of Karin saying that she could no longer sense Sasuke’s chakra, when, in reality, he was just somewhere far away. From here, Jugo summons them back to their location, which I think was what was leftover from the battle.

Uzumakis do exist outside of Konoha meaning it's a perfect cover to say that Naruto is an orphan of an Uzumaki thus obscuring his parents identity since other Uzumaki may have simply just visited Konoha when the Kyuubi was released.

17:30 I mean when Nagato revived the fallen Hidden Leaf villagers and shinobi, they clearly had some type of healing since their souls would have otherwise been sent into bodies that were bleeding out, missing limbs or other organs, and beginning the process of decaying for those that died earlier in the day. They’d essentially be returning just to die again yet that didn’t happen, so some type of healing was done to them rather than just their souls being returned to their bodies.

Izanagi can pretty easily be explained as not being able to rewrite things up to a certain point. Like if something happened X Years Ago, you can’t Izanagi it away. Or more likely it only works during the period the jutsu is cast.

Isn't Kakashi meant to be younger than Rin, Obito, and Guy? People assume theyre the same age for obvious reasons, however, he became a genin at age 5 which means he graduated before them and should've been put into a different platoon. Obito and Rin graduated at age 9 iirc. According to the data books, Kakashi is 3 years younger than Obito. Unless Obito and Rin graduated at age 9 at the same time as Kakashi at age 5 (soon after being promoted to chunin at age 6) then it makes sense.

Honestly naruto always felt like it was being built off of a cliff with all previous pieces falling off

31:20 The truth about Obito is that he actually didnt want to activate no Tsukuyomi or shit. *He wanted to beat everybody's ass!*

I was always under the impression that Kurama recognized that he could reform after dying inside of Naruto, but his pride as "The strongest of the tailed beasts" would not allow him to die like his kin, even if he would reform. Kurama is immortal (was) and therefore thinks on timelines much longer than the paltry extent of a human lifetime. Now, his rage and indignation at being leashed for 100 years is great, so great that a supposedly nice being became evil-incarnate after only 100 years of imprisonment, but I took that as a sign of dented pride, a pride so great that Vegeta himself could acknowledge it as practically Saiyan-like in strength. And prideful beings will do many things to avoid damaging their pride, even if it means using underhanded means to get out of situations with their pride intact. There's also another component to it... even though they can reform, who's to say that they're the same person when they do? What if it's more like reincarnation? Isobu has died twice, the most out of any tailed beast, and he's a very demure personality when we see him in the war. Who's to say that's how he was originally? When we saw him in the Three-Tails capture arc (anime-only filler, I know, but lacking any other context, I'm going to use it) he was aggressive, reclusive and just wanted to be left alone in his lake. And he didn't speak once, but what if he didn't remember how to, yet? Who's to say that the Isobu we see now isn't just a reincarnation twice over of the original Isobu? There's got to be some reason that Tailed Beasts are scared of death, and this seems like a perfectly reasonable explanation why. Why WOULDN'T dying and having their brains scrambled mess them up, even if they'll regenerate?

The second explanation has a simple answer. It's Kurama's pride. Kuarama not only prides himself on being stronger than the other tailed beasts, but everything regarding Kuarama has to be better than the other tailed bests. Which is why he helps Naruto to beat the other tailed beasts.
