Great video like always! What will you do after this?

One of Kishimoto greatest problems wasn’t even that he couldn’t write woman. It was he couldn’t write characters who didn’t have Sharingan or Harshirama cancer. I mean Rock Lee, Temari, Neji, Anko were very similar. They had a Few Episodes just dedicated to them that made them AWESOME and fan favorites. But then they are forgotten about. Hell I’d say Kishimoto is very true to Gender Equality. Every side character is forgotten about or shafted no matter their Gender or looks.

I all ways proseaved this as the ww2 or Korean war in the timeline women all be yes in the war not in the front line boroto being modern-day

Much appreciated. Can't wait for a Sasuke vid.

Have you/would you consider waching "Monster" I know I"m not a patreon or anything but Monster is a great anime it's produced by madhouse or was

I'm calling it now, Sarada is going to get the exact same treatment. Even if by some miracle she manages to hold the office, she's going to be second fiddle to Boruto as the actual de-facto protector of the village.

It might have been workable if it was at least an open secret that Kushina was just as involved with the work as Minato even if she didn't technically have the title.

Tsunade counts as a Hokage to me and always will.

She wasn't a housewife. Minato seems to be doing most of the house work even before she becomes pregnant. Even then If she hadn't changed her mind at one point I think Minato would have supported her if she continued.

@@WeirdTale tsunades fear is freaking blood. Just to have her shiver? I love her, she is badass. And terumei is kinda like that but it’s not enough.

this, right here.

Fullmetal alchemist was written by a woman and has two male protagonists full of depth. Kishimoto has no excuse.

@@marajade9573 THIS

Demon slayer was written by a woman too

PREACH 👏👏👏👏👏

in their mind "only boys like shounen" 🤓

It's also completely false, one piece for instance has a lot of female fans. I think one piece handles the women better (although it still has it's issues).

​@@mohammedu7105 That is also the reason I like onepiece , they actually made female character relevant to the plot like without them luffy can't become the pirate king

@@mohammedu7105 This. I was pleasantly surprised at how fleshed out the female characters are, especially right off the bat with Nami. Like you said there's still some obvious flaws but I ended up loving way more of the female cast than I was expecting for a popular shounen.

​@hieutv5109 Eiichro made an extremely wise decision with his female characters. It's obvious from the start that Nami would not be able to keep up with the starting crew in terms of strength and fighting ability, but the writer substitutes this by giving her an extremely important role in the crew. Her being the navigator is virtually the backbone of the straw hats' accomplishment of their goal. Without her, Luffy and Co wouldn't have made it to the grandline. Same with Robin, even though her devil fruit has potential, she plays a very important role in that she is the archeologist and one of the very few people who can read ponygliphs. Without her, Luffy is not making it to Raftel, making her an extremely crucial character to the story.

The only thing that could have saved her character was moving on from obsessive crush but 😭😭😭😭

@@Jo-zx9fz With the way the other girls were written, moving on from her crush would just have removed her from the narrative completely. Just look at Tenten. She’s one of the few female characters who’s personality isn’t “I’m in love with this guy” (even though she had some romantic potential with Neji) and she literally had 0 screen time or relevance.

@@stormnightmare4378 that's really sad if legendary characters like Minato and sakumo hatake exists , why can't there be female characters like that. Tsunade is the only one with that perspective but even then everyone associates her with jiraiya. Now i can see sarada and sumire pushed to that same stupid Love theme, where they both are potential characters of having a good storyline with romance not being the main priority.

@@Jo-zx9fz Sakura really love Sasuke. Even Kakashi and Naruto said her feelings are true. But relationship is toxic. Yes. Sasuke trying to kill her and Karin and they loved him after that

Kishimoto liked Shikamaru quite a lot so that is the reason why he continued to develop him even through Shippuden. And I'm saying this because many other memebers of Konoha 12 had their moments during the original Naruto but were totally left out in Shippuden except for Shikamaru.

If he doesn’t know he doesn’t know.

Even Oda, who also has some sexist ideas (I say, even as a massive fan of his work who respects the man as a writer otherwise), is capable of writing women with more dimensions to them than "wants to kiss a dude". Hell, he even has a better written female big bad than Kishimoto too.

@@donrog5035 That's not an excuse if you're writing for a big company like Shounen though.

@@alvinanis3006 it’s not as if he didn’t warn us. He told us he doesn’t know how to write female character. Indeed it’s not an excuse but you can’t blame a man who knows his limits.

He’s better now, I hear.

*Would be

Wow, he said that!?

Apparently so. Even if he didn’t, the implication that somebody could put you through utter hell but you’re the bad guy if you stop pursuing them is still very present.

@@pumpkinbaron9916 I think it was more so he was interested in making Sakura become interested in Naruto, but then thought that people would dislike her because she only became interested in Naruto wehn he became the hero

Sakura would go full on akatsuki if she did move on. But I think it would be better for her because she then will have more character development.

@Ghost Town looking at the way kishi failed his female characters, we all can say it WOULD be a development but not an impact. However, if he was interested in sakura, he would have created a great story for her, made her influence and be a part of it, not a decoration

@Ghost Town I know, but she had a potential because a lot of shinobis praised her abilities (chakra control, genjutsu, iq, power, success in studying before becoming a genin) and her character could have represented the ideas of "love yourself", "a hard work beats talent", "don't compare yourself to others" and so on. As Sakura already existed, she should have affected the story just like her comrades. However, we didn't see it unfortunately

@Ghost Town we all know kishimoto created everything on the run

I spent the whole time I was watching hoping she’d deck him and go “Fuck you, emo boy. You look like a piece of cheese.” Or something to a stronger effect

@Ghost Town agreed cause it was the only time she shone in the series. The 3rd movie is a filler, however she's imba there too

Actually, yeah. Seven Deadly Sins is obviously targeted towards a younger male audience, and yet Escanor is written to be emotionally dependent on Merlin. Elizabeth has actual powers, and the demon lady from the Ten Commandments (forgot her name, but the one with the golden blond hair) has actual ambitions and “avenger” tendencies.

I suppose not writing a good female character should deserve the death penalty.

@@foxeye245 Who said that?

@@venturoushope2846 If there is no good excuse for writing a bad character, then writing a bad character becomes unforgivable doesn’t it?

@@foxeye245 Yeah, unless you improve your writing style. Are you being sarcastic?

Searching for love and acceptance that you don't get from your family is not a dream? Wanting to change yourself and become less passive and more confident isn't a dream? Hinata loved Naruto because she wanted to change.

@@muchiha6428 but... that doesn't have anything to do with naruto... Actually no. think about all this way: if Naruto died or ended up with someone else (because that's his right to do so), what would you think happen to hinata?

@Yʊӄǟʀɨ Yǟӄʊʍօ well dang...

@@miss_chelles1338 Naruto is the source of her confidence, how does he not have anything to do with her? He inspired her to change. If Naruto ended up with someone else, Hinata would accept it. She literally did so in the last movie once she saw Naruto wearing his moms scarf.

@@janinebelleestrada7096 Hinata accomplished all her dreams, she changed just like she wanted to and became more confident. "Like seriously i expected her to not only be a good mother but also something more but no" It was her dream to have a healthy and happy family and raise children in a sheltered and protective environment. A chance that she missed as a kid, so she wants to give that love for her children.

this! Especially when you take into account the fact that there are LOTS of stories targeted at women that have well-written male characters. Not all obviously, but in mangas for instance, Mamoru from Sailor Moon is such a great character. He has a lot of depth, and he's such a great guy that I can see a lot of young girls wanting to date him. I've noticed that female writers TEND to make better male love interest because they want to write people that the female audience would connect with on a personal level, so they give him depth and an endearing personality (like even the cliché bad boy always turns ou to have a heart of gold and a sad backstory which give him depth). Basic male authors on the other hand make female love interest extremely shalow, just good looking and heplessly devoted to some guy. It's as if they think that's all a man could ever value in a partner, whereas female authors tend to think women value a man who has clear positive character traits beyond being cute. It reflects so poorly on men in general, when stories suposedly written for them shit out bad female characters like this. If as a man you don't feel offended that there is an entire industry that believes you're just an ape who likes big boobs and want a personal servant for life rather than an equal, well maybe you're just as trash as the industry thinks you are lol.

@Elisa Soh EXACTLY. The argument that it’s written for boys fails on at least two fronts: the one you described, and the fact a large portion of the readership is comprised of women and girls.

@@KookiesNolly I talked about this with my sister

It's such a weird thing to say, too. I mean, most stories aren't written for horses or cars or medieval Europe, but we wouldn't use that as an excuse to write these in a boring, lazy manner. Or are they implying that they believe their readers will never be around women enough to know the difference?

@@KookiesNolly there are plenty of shows with developed female characters like One piece. Naruto is not the be all end all of and the exact shounen.

Ino is a medical nin in the anime only. In the manga, homegirl is not.

It is genuinely weird that Hinata and Neji aren't healers. It seems like they should be *perfect* for it

Ino with her family technique was more suited to learning under Ibiki, the interrogation specialist, than Tsunade. She seems more like the gossip girl who would constantly gather info on everyone around her. Heck, I'm surprised Kabuto's info cards in the chuunin exams didn't inspire her to do something similar.

Perhaps if he made Hinata or Neji medical ninjas overshadow Sakura, Neji would surely have been superior, and Hinata by genetic advantage could develop more power than Sakura, Hinata's personality was more suitable as a medical Ninja. In fact, Sakura was given powers for battle, because without that she would be even more inconsequential.

@@InfernosReaper Neji would surely have been a medical ninja much superior to Sakura, and Hinata would surely have at least equaled Sakura, basically, they took away the only thing in which Sakura would excel and be of good support.

well ...its clear female characters were the last thing the writer was interested in .....the amount of work and thought put into each male character main or supporting and their back stories is admiring on the other hand the writer didn't even care to think that in the world of shinobi is it even possible that not even one woman exits who is worthy to die a Sinobi's death ?? .....even though so many female characters had great abilities and also grew together with male characters .....Not even one had good reason to be remembered by fans ...except Tunade the mighty hokage who also in the end was shown emotionally weak and was unable to fight on the battlefield even after she herself was a lord hokage .......its even noticed that woman image is only of " chasing after man " .....as in the video described ...woman are only there to be seen as lovers, wives, mothers ....but the writer did not even clearly explored these roles as u stated in your comment NARUTO is my fav series i absolutely love the characters but i doubt if writer intended to write a bromance material but had to add female characters bc of pressure 😅

Gaara and Naruto have more mother's moments than any other and their mothers died newlyborns...

The only mom I can remember that didn’t die and/or wasn’t just a housewife trope was Kiba’s mom and she’s barely shown.

No cuz I've literally always asked where is everyone mom??

And we've almost never seen Hinata's mom 💀

in a movie kishi did not write though so...thats the issue..he only did designs for that film and gave them some ideas to use when asked like the scarf storyline...he had no input on the actual story of the film it seems...kishi is sexist and did not use her right...he literally could give a crap about pairings or hinata i have noticed...like to him shes not even a top 20 character clearly...he barley used her in the manga..chapter 700 she is not even shown with her husband showing us how much he cares about the pairs smdh he did the same with sakura ino temari and ten ten so this man clearly did not care about ships......the anime usually gives her more canon material since she will go years without being even shown in the manga.....which is a shame since like a lot of the exam characters she helped bring in most of his fanbase..no one read the first arc of the manga originally..it did not gain popularity until all the teams were shown in chapter 29 of the exams arc..thats when like 80% of the fanbase was formed cause you could relate to a team or kid character or sensei or main villain as the cast grew since the first arc is so limited in the manga to team 7 iruka hiruzen and the smaller villains....this is why people hate kishi..

@@razkable Sadly enough Kishi actually doesn't care for the ships. He originally expressed not wanting any of the characters to end up together but was pressured by his company to appease the fans that wanted pairings. Which is very much expressed in the way they are portrayed in Boruto.

@@razkable ok ?😐

Because the story's not about Hinata. Kishimoto wasn't interested in expanding anything about her character, and as such he didn't. He writes most of the important characters as guys because... I don't know, he's a guy and he has an easier time writing guys than he does girls, or because it's marketed towards young men. While yeah there's a female playerbase, they're a vastly smaller contingent that he's not going to pander to by changing his story.

@@eugene9211 the thing is it may not be about a character but that shouldn't mean you dont' keep in Line with the other characters. Don't give ability and start of development that should change them. Don't give them powerful ability and dna that should make them more relevant to story and power wise. DON'T NERF THEM TO MAKE OTHER SEEMS POWERFUL (mainly Sakura, every girls suffered that at some point, even more noticiable in boruto). That just show that you don't Care about character you introduced or don't know how to. Then don't even start developping them. Manga like HxH or FMA are interessing because even if it's not about other the MC, the other character are consistant in their power most of Time. Mc are not the only being capable of Amazing powers.

Because the main character never matured past 12.

I know. Though it should be noted that the whole Female Sexuality/Attractiveness=Weakness and Subservience is a very Mediteranian and Arabic idea. Japanese women traditionally where seen to be dangerous when beautiful and if not forced to be bound by duty or servitude could seduce and compell all men to do their bidding. Basically Ancient Arabs, Persians, and Mediteranian Europeans we're more likely to understimate women wile the Japanese feared what they could do if freed. At least that is how I interpret plenty of old legends from all of those cultures.

I mean...Lets look at some of the adult female characters of the show. Tsunade, despite being a drunken lout when we need her, is still pretty and rocking insane tits and a great figure, though we learn that she doesn't actually look this way, and uses her ability to stay young looking. there might be some personal justification in universe, but that's ALL kishimoto. Konan is barely a character, she could have been a doll made by Nagato and it would not have changed all that much, to go with the Yahiko doll or whatever. The snake lady wears a trenchcoat and firnexts, has huge tits and is constantly being bound and bitten. This is again, a recurring theme that while not shouting "PORN!" is always in the name of fan service. Again, all Kishimoto.

@Brandname I think you are confusing a character being sexual and a character being sexualized. The former is an internal thing that is a defiing trait, and other people in universe should notice and probably have some sort of opinion on it, regardless of whether or not it's stated to the viewer. The Latter is something done for the audience, and doesn't really add anything to the character aside from the fact that they look and good are put into fan service moments. Also, notice how you even phrase it yourself, a character "being sexualized", is an external force that could probably be removed and the character in quesiton loses nothing of value, where as some very sexual characters would lose some core part of them. Jiraiya is an old man who is a sexual deviant, it's a defining character trait and he would lose something important to who he is if that were removed, but Tsunade being sexualized doesn't alter her character at all, neither does he having huge boobs that are basically out there for the world to see. Her specific sexualization flies in the face of her more competent and noble parts, and her vanity and insecuirty about her true looks never really play a role in her character as a downside, it's just treated in the series that it's a twist for the audience that she isn't actually some hot milf type and uses power to look good. That doesn't do anything in universe, that's all for the audience. I don't know much about red sonja aside from that it seems like a conan ripoff, and that whole thing is about how muscles are better than armor, and looking good comes from that, so the best I can really say is that what you said is a flimsy and lame way to say "We want to show off nearly naked people, don't question it"

@@tonywentworth9652 I don’t think the women being objectified has anything to do with Naruto’s mental maturity. They were objectified even when he wasn’t around. Lol

true..too many people focus on the female characters because they hate most of them or feel let down by the few they liked....what about the other flaws?..its not a perfect story

Glad someone else pointed this out. I wanted part of Shippuden to focus on Naruto building a relationship with the Jinchuriki from the other nations. Hell, during the timeskip, Naruto and Jiraiya could've traveled to the other lands for Naruto to train and during that journey, he could've made friends with the other Jinchuriki so they could be relevant in Shippuden and have actual screentime. They all had such cool designs but the only one's we got to know, besides Naruto, are Gaara and Killer Bee (Utakata too but that was a filler arc so it doesn't count). And we really aren't introduced to the other nations in the series until the end of it all in preparation for the War Arc. Such wasted potential on learning about so many cool characters and other villages and lands.

At least filler remedies some of this by including threats that are from other nations or are rogue ninja with alliances to no region

I think about this too often. It would've been so interesting to see life outside of being a ninja, or what civilization is like outside hidden villages (which are hidden as stated in their name). I also wonder about how the political system works in the Narutoverse, beyond the five Kage we're aware of. Also, my mind is always constantly bamboozled on the technological advancement of the world the characters are living in because it's all over the place sometimes.

@@ProlificPops Naruto and Bleach have the same flaw of "introducing a cool concept, power, and or character for the sake of it being cool rather than introducing them organically into the story," Haki in One Piece was introduced in the very first chapter, with its interactions and utilization further developed as the story goes on.

omg

God yes, I feel like she may have been one of the reasons so many male anime fans I knew in school were obsessed with the idea of having a "shy gf" who's world revolved around them lol

They did my girl Hinata so dirty man 😭

Is this manga seriously telling me she has no other goals in life? No aspirations, no dreams, no ambitions? She only wants to be a housewife, and that's it? That's seriously the full extent of her life's goal?

Another reason why I wish female characters in Naruto were more like Avatar the last airbender.

@@kingnamor7777 the amazing thing is, katara was not only a competent battler, but a competent healer as well. So it’s not like those two things are impossible to put together. Not to mention I feel like the first couple episodes in the North Pole were specifically jabbing as Naruto and other shonen from the time (not sure if it was intentional but it was definitely a jab)

@@supreme_king_obama1158I always felt the scene was more towards general treatment on women at that current time. Although I could be wrong. Either I admire Katara strength and willingness to do anything possible to become a water bending master and use her powers to save the world and fight back against the fire nation and those who oppose her friends.

@ꜱᴏꜰɪᴀ ᴍᴀɴᴛᴇɢᴀ I agree. Because Kishimoto should've definitely taken note from series like Avatar the last airbender, Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood or any other notable anime or cartoon series that is highly praise for some its episodes and how they treat their female and male characters in general.

@@kingnamor7777 those are my two absolute favorite shows and these are the reasons why.

Hinata gave up on being head of the Hyuga clan early. She trained her whole life to be Naruto's possible waifu. Lol If she tried learning politics or was shown independently taking up the mantle of heiress w/o succumbing to pressure. Learning how to overcome and work with her weaknesses, show any interest in the main and lower branch dynamics and etc... To eventually challenge Hanabi for her title back....then it would've mattered. Only after that could we say she trained her whole life to be heiress. Hinata's never shown doing anything substantial for other people. I would've loved to see her actually give a shit about her relationship with her sister. By trying to be the best she could be and not want her younger sister weighed by the responsibility of heiress. Yet Hinata ditched personal responsibility faster than you can blink. Lol She never cared about being heiress, standing up to Hiashi, or validating Neji's anguish towards his eventual fate. I hated that chic before the war, but especially afterwards... Neji dies and she instead thinks of Naruto's big manly hand. Her ultimate dream was dating Naruto. Not Neji ever dying or succeeding in being a confident yet demure heiress.

@@opaluni yea thats what I am saying. She wasn't well written

@@Irose_YTBE You wanting a character to have different motivations than they have isn't bad writing. If she was never planned to want to do those things, her... not doing those things or not wanting them isn't a bad thing. She bettered herself for someone, and she decided that they were more important than other things. That happens sometimes.

@@bladerman4850 "she bettered herself for someone" that's the problem. This video literally addresses why this was an issue. It's sexist writing that all the female characters have to be in some way subservient and tethered to the men. They are not written to have their own goals or aspirations that aren't tied to men, and Hinata is a prime example of this.

@@Irose_YTBE You can say that about many characters in this show male and female. That obsession with changing yourself for another and improving for them is explained before Hinata even enters the show. Haku with Zabuza, and the connection between Naruto and Sasuke in that arc. That is a common motif of the show, and doesn't really have anything to do with gender. Both healthily and unhealthily doing so and exploring that relationship is a pretty big part of the show. I've never thought of it as a gendered issue, and I don't see why you would, women can have people they live for and want to help just as much as men.

Sakura has a really big development in the manga, though. She's now a kagelevel kunoichi.

@@BroJo676 Soy Pro Sakura Tiene mometos muy buenos, a la par de malos. Pero desarrollo no tuvo nada.

@@BroJo676 being a physically strong character (which Sakura is) doesn't make them strong from a writing standpoint. She's kage-level but her existence still revolves around Naruto and Sasuke.

@@BroJo676 Becoming powerful isn't character development. If that's her only development over time, then just puts her, one of the three main characters, on par with Kiba and Choji as a character.

@@shadowbladesabre1945 Sakura's character development started with her realizing how of a burden she was to her teammates, Sasuke and Naruto. She used to be the bratty and pointless weakling who would always be talking ish instead being the ish. Eventually, she self-inspected, accepting all of her flaws and shortcomings to easily distance herself from those, working her ass off as Tsunade's personal trainee, educating herself better and stronger, and taking on bigger challenges. She wanted to prove herself as well as her teammates, that she no longer was that burden they had to put up with back in the day. That's growth and even Ino, her "rival", came to acknowledging that change during their Chunin Exam fight. Sakura showed herself strong-willed enough to nullify Ino's Spirit Possession jutsu (the only person in the entire series so far who's achieved such a feat). That's even the reason why Inner Sakura had started fading out of the manga little by little (Shippuden's first chapter being its last appearance) since Sakura's training eventually had her mature into a young woman comfortable enough in herself, her abilities, and her opinions. I'm not even going to mention Kakashi noting Sakura's growth in the Shippuden's first episode and during the Shinobi War. You're free to dislike Sakura but denying she's been through growth just like Naruto, Sai, or Hinata equates to actively ignoring Kishimoto's writing effort...

I've been thinking about that too :d

Sasuke wasn't in love with Sakura unt he realize how much she loved him ,u need to read their novel to understand it

​@@francisconavarrete3031 doesn't make it good. if a series has to rely on obscure spin-off, where mainstream viewers/readers are less likely to see then its as good as a filler episode. its like JK Rowling giving pre-existing characters certain race or traits on her tweets when it was never mentioned in the book series when its all obvious retcons just to justify things to happen.

@@milkmatcha3698 it does , light novels in Japan tell u all the things the characters are thinking, remember kishismoto was only doing what he was told during the time he was in Shonen jump romance was a big thing and most fans didn't like the romance but he did had a big female fan base so he wanted to incorporate it to the story buthis editor and higher up told him where story should go and how to do it . That what's always happened in Shonen jump if u know any thing about jump u should know they can cancel a series anything ,Naruto most likely wouldn't of but they were afraid to lose viewers,that why he made Naruto gaiden

Sasuke only had Sakura because no sane woman would take him ; and Karin is insane and sexually depraved ..😂 so he had to marry Sakura , the only person who will put up with his bs .

Ino didn't she's the head of the intelligence division and Yamanaka clan. But you wouldn't be able to tell bc it's never brought up. Sakura is the head medical shinobi in the hospital, yet once again.... never brought up or focused on.

@@sageseeker9197 well shit

It seemed so out of character. Temari offends me the most because she was my favorite female character in the first two shows and in Boruto she's reduced to an abusive tsundere mom cliche who has nothing better to do than to stay home and nag her husband and kid. And that's another thing I can't stand about Boruto... Way to ruin your only decently-written and somewhat understandable romantic relationship, Kishimoto. -_-

Sakura shoulda been Vice to Narutos leadership.

Literally what's wrong with being a housewife? It even makes narrative sense for some characters like Hinata who grew up in a strict family with no love to be the one who gives love and take care of 3 kids. Other females only have being housewives as side jobs while their main is serving the village in some way.

Thats facts

That is what frustrates me the most about the franchise. So much potential, wasted.

I think Lanipator put it best in their Naruto Ninja Storm 4: Road to Boruto playthrough when talking about Himawari. "Bort, you'll be one of the most powerful ninja the village has ever known. Himawari, you'll make a great housewife."

Seriously? Who had potential? Who right out of the eight gates made you go "now this is a well written female character. I can't wait to see where they go with her"? Who had that potential. Ino? Sakura? Hinata is about the only charterer I can think of that sort of tried to have an arc, but even she started as mumbles. Maybe I'm missing the really good female character that was really well written at the start of the show. And fuck. You know how many people I see bitching about sakura and Hinata being housewives? Are you fucking kidding me? We watched a planet sucking tree devour everyone, demigod animal transformations, multiple dimensions, and cutting the moon in half. Fuck that. If I didn't have plot armour I would have quit and been a housewife too. Fuck that kaiju shit. I like cooking. Fucking female characters were the smart ones. They saw what was out there and were like "all yours boys". I'm gonna go chill with the kids and make a bitching stew.

I mean the only other person that he liked from that clan was Neji and he suffered the same fate he had been avoiding his whole damn life.

@@WeirdTale well remember naruto and hinata's relationship is based on bs so it's only natural that he wouldn't care about how his wife was treated lol

@@tonguepop9453 In a way yes, but in a way no. If Naruto had noticed Hinata's feelings for him when they were still Genin, or Hinata had grown a spine when they were 14 and declared her undying love for the boy that rebelled against the world that shunned him, while she was always afraid of the authority figures in her life then it could have worked. Basically instead of jerking us around with the Sasuke bullshit, Kishimoto could have had Team 7 and Team 8 do frequent assigned Espionage missions involving Shadow Clone and Byakugan shared reconnaissance for the Fire Country or something. Kishimoto had an insane amount of good tools and powers in his worlds sandbox but he didn't use them for any character progression and constantly relied on running gags. Naruto is a story told with decent art at the beginning with impressive moments at the start, but that latter did not payoff the way we expected. If anything even if it is a low bar Naruto is one of those few stories in the early 2000's where the girls and women for the most part are the ones that choose the guys they love and do not regret it later. None of that the guys make the first move and have to prove themselves to not be loosers to them. Or that any of the women are in abusive or bad relationships with "hot" but ultimately dumb and selfish men so they go with the more noble hero. Or that they view relationships as something completely bad and unnecessary so they forgo love all together until the "right" guy comes along and is convincing enough to prove them otherwise. The girls in Naruto at least choose and had good enough judgement that the long run it shows that they dot chose badly.

The whole hyuga plotline was just forgotten

@@WeirdTale That's because, for all of Naruto's grand speeches about changing the world, Naruto never actually changed anything. He pep talked and punched his way into making everyone submit and give up on warring (Sort of). Naruto never changed nor did even think about changing the actual fundamental issues of the world. He is the sort of person who thinks everything can be solved with a hug. Actually trying to grasp the complexities of the world goes far above his head. Of course, this is basically the same for most action shonen protagonists. But Naruto brought up a lot of interesting themes in the story and it never really went anywhere with them.

The issue with that is we only got a spinoff because of the roles kishi put his females into that we care about so it's a catch 22..that mattered to the narrative and milking post ending... the series focused on other things so splitting screen time would hurt the story and make you less of a fan of the males villians mentors past and the show would lose fans popularity and sell less...I am sorry but sakura was the only female with real screen time then tsuande barley but mostly sakura...everyone else came and went....I barley remember any dialogue between naruto and ino and he never speaks to ten ten in the manga neither did sasuke...she barley exists

He already wrote some complex female characters. Tsunade alone is one of the best in mainstream anime

@@razkable excuse me? They could've just stop making useless and stupid fillers and focus on the actual writting, don't make up such weird excuses for an overrated anime.

@@tactly5060 oh yeah, one male gazey and sexualized character. And others, that literally died. Cool.

@@meangengar8053 she’s not even sexualized that much. She has a big robe, not like she’s 100% exposed to us. And you’re simplifying her character down so much you completely ignored her development and character arc. And there’s still other females in the series with good writing along side her.

That would have been amazing

That’s intresting

and we could see sasuke toughs on that with sakura reminding him of itachi but also being totally diferent

@@merinofanfic4717 oh my god, the conflict would be amazing 😍😍.

I bet She would still only care about sasuke's like she did in the whole manga

I guarantee you kishimoto forgot all about ten ten and her capabilities.

And the most hilarious thing is that she's the only Naruto character to ever be an actual ninja.

I agree with ya

infact just the concept of Team Gai was really neglected I feel like a group of ninjas in naruto who dont just throw out jutsus constantly and actually make use of tools/taijutsu is cool as hell but instead almost all of them are just cast away and the focus turns to gai who is later thrown away after the war

I don’t think any of you guys watched shippuden they shit on everyone not just females

It would've been WAY more interesting if she didn't end up with Naruto and it shows her independence to let go, could've been the same damn thing for sakura. But she's so emotionally reliant on him it gets annoying

@@MugdhaSharma2011 UM EXCUSE ME?! If that were true then why didn’t she become bad when Sasuke went missing for God knows how long. I’m just gonna give the benefit of the doubt and hope that the creator isn’t that dumb. lol. I also hate the underdeveloped relationships between these couples. Like what the video said, he believed in the chemistry brotherhood between sasuke and naruto MORE than the ‘canon’ couples now. There’s barely any build up for their growth, let alone their own character motivation as individuals. It sucks it had to be this way

This is why I trash all of them equally. In fact I kinda hate Hinata more because her character revolved solely around being noticed by "Naruto-kun", I hate character whose defining trait is liking someone else, is like they can't exist outside the sphere of said character. Kishimoto sucks at writing females and the worst part is that he admitted it himself. Admitting your flaws is the first step into improving, but he didn't improve nothing on his following series. Maybe that's why it got axed

@@juksleo6257 ugh Hinata is basically JUST another version of Orihime. ‘Kurosaki kunnnn!!’ Like I notice that the MC’s(not all but mostly in shonen) ended up with these characters who liked them for the longest time, submissive and revolves every single thought process around the crush, but the mc barely gave them any attention, and suddenly when they got together it just doesn’t makes sense because their devoted crush since day 1 felt one sided. Like what’s the point of their existence?? To just be the hot submissive crush with big boobs with barely any self plot of purpose and nothing more? Yes. That’s basically it. That’s also saying you should just be with that hot crush who likes you coz...they’re hot and they like you. Lol.

@@sakasusuk I also dislike Orihime. The main factor of why I'm team Noelle in Black clover is because Mimosa reminds of everything I hated on those two.

Look at any abusive relationship and why women stay with them. That will answer your question. But one of your answers can't be kids.

@em ma of course not. They can't sell the "fantasy " of being with Sakura if they did. Buuuut I could be wrong if she had that trauma they could sell her to the "I could fix her" crowd.

Half of Sakura's hatred comes from being angry at a male character, idk where that point is coming from.

True. Now she's in a shallow "relationship" with him.

@KilluaZoldyck your right but that's not my point.

Sarada is basically Borutos best friend and yet she got replaced real quick lmao. The konoha 11 got wasted.....friggin Konan basically does nothing and only has 1 fight. Its ridiculous

The only difference is that while the female characters had very clear stereotypes, the male characters did not. If you were a female character, you were either boy-obsessed and shy, boy-obsessed and angry, or not boy-obsessed with like 5 seconds of screentime. This is something I think Boruto is doing better with; removing the repetitive stereotypes.

Honestly ,Naruto is not good anime at all. Even now naruto fans only talk about madara...

@@blurryy6423 Naruto is amazing stfu

The only arcs that don't really have this issue are Chunin Exams and Sasuke Retrieval. And even in the latter's case, Sakura was once again useless in that arc. I mean, some would argue that doing nothing is a better fate than getting Sakura vs. Iino as your major fight, but it's not great either way. Anyways, at least the best character, aka Rock Lee, got some big moments in both of those arcs.

Kinda wierd since the Hyuga clan martial arts is essentially bypasses physical attributes that they didn't take the opportunity to emphasized with having the shy timid become the master of it. Also, With what everyone is saying, Sakura could have been an alchemist character/ inventor.

At least Hinata had a cool backstory, the heiress of the Leaf’s most powerful clan but is pretty weak while her cousin is a genius and can’t rule due to their their fathers being twins. That’s a good story that went nowhere

@@MrKingYuji tbh all of naruto is good storylines that went nowhere

@@PJDAltamirus0425 It's literally stated in Boruto writing that Hinata have mastered all the Hyuga abilities and is currently the strongest Hygua after beating Hanabi in a fight.

Sakura sacrifices her dignity for sasuke and is ready to abandon her village for him, and she faints a lot, and on top of all that instead of having demon magic or god power eyes she just heals and punches goodly. She constantly needs to be saved to top it ALL off, sasuke is almost never there for her, making her seem even more foolish.

I agree the guidebooks stated that Sakura could hold her own in a fight with Sasuke and Naruto by the War Arc and yet we see none of her power. Even in Boruto the one major fight she gets ends with her getting saved by Sasuke and she doesn’t even use the 100 healings

Hinata didn't create any jutsu, twin lion fist already existed, it's a technique taught to the main branch of the Hyūga clan and Hinata only learned to use it

I find it very telling that the one female character out of the Konoha 11 whose motivations didn't revolve around a man also had the least screentime.

That's why she is my favourite character in the entire franchise. If you make her a man, her story wouldn't change. Her character lacks of personality and also background but this isn't due to her being a female, but Kishimato's terrible writing. If she becomes a man Tenten would still be the same. 😌

Nobara and Maki are what Hinata and Sakura could have been. (Spoilers, btw.) Maki was rejected from her clan because she was weak, she returned stronger than any of them and slaughtered them Itachi style. She raised up past all of their expectations. Nobara was loud and boisterous, and not traditionally pretty. She was still confident, she still loved herself and believed in her strength. She hand her own goals, and strived toward them. They were so much better.

As a firm Konan supporter, I couldn’t help but feel like her final battle with Tobi was really underwhelming. This woman faked an entire lake with paper, observed and noted Tobi’s weaknesses and limitations, only to be killed off by some izanagi bullshit. Sadly, in regular Kishimoto fashion, all her potential as a character was thrown away to aid the male characters in building the plot. It also irks me that she spent a large majority of her screentime playing nurse with Nagato. Imagine if she lived and ended up joining the allies in their plan to end Madara Uchiha. That would’ve been epic.

@@venturoushope2846 Cheers to that, there were many opportunities missed with her character that's for sure. Seeing her take on Madara and helping take down Obito especially would've been awesome.

What kind of flex would've that been? You know what would've been amazing was that Obito would have died in that battle and get brought back by Kabuto. If Kishimoto wanted her to die. That paper bomb trick making her chakra pool deplete heavily would've been a better reason. Dying from using too much chakra killing the bad guy? Far better than how she was treated. Legit Konan had so much potential. She could've died heroically actually hindering their plans but instead she just got piped down and pretty much a fodder character

Ikr i am a girl and i am way more into shounen then any other genre

She was never obsessed with sasuke romantically after he left, I think this is how you pay attention to it and how it's written more than how you, individually see it. You remember that fake confession? yea tho I fucking hated it because it had done no justice to her character and she was MANIPULATED before hand which basically gave her no time to actually think it through and she had no moral support from anyone in the village after the news there is one thing you can find in it and it's that she rather have Naruto than sasuke and she was willing to keep her only friend who had always been there for her rather than sasuke. She even said it when Naruto was leaving the village that he always understood her. After sasuke left I'm not gonna say all romantic feelings disappear because even irl it doesn't work like that but she definetly went to develop and put what's right over how she feels, she was willing to kill sasuke just for naruto's sasuke and YES we all knew she couldn't have done it would you want to kill someone you spent all your years on getting back and someone you liked? even in the final valley when sasuke was going to fight Naruto kakashi said sakura doesn't want to have you romantically she just wants her friend back (not exactly what he said) Even tho her getting stronger was for bringing back sasuke, Naruto was still her motivation in helping him bring sasuke back and she's even said it many times that she'll get stronger with him to get sasuke back. Sasusaku is a complex dynamic so I won't touch on their actual relationship but just wanted to point out she was never romantically obsessed with sasuke after he left.

Also, Hinata should had an arc where she takes back her place as the Hyuga heir. Just saying.

Eh, trauma effects people differently. Kakashi also had a traumatic experience losing his romantic interest Rin when he was very young, and never seemed to be romantically interested in any women afterwards. Tsunade is similar in this regard, if she worked on getting over her trauma she could move on from it but she instead chose to drink and get into debt. Jiraya is also similar in this, he does not marry any woman after Tsunade refuses him. Jiraya does not display the same issues Tsunade does, but really a man who falls in love with one woman but won't move on if she's not interested speaks to his inability to move on. Possibly from trauma as well.

@@hydrocy.9165 and your reasons for that? You aren't entitled to your own opinion, you're only entitled to what you can argue for. Justify your statement.

@@hydrocy.9165 Dude, the video is literally about how poorly Sakura's character was written; it takes us through the could've beens and should've beens and it clearly states that it was the author's fault that Sakura's main motivation was seeking love and validation from Sasuke and in the pursuit of that she made horrible decisions. Also, you can force a horse to a lake, but you can't make him drink. There was no obligation for Sasuke to marry Sakura but he did. And it was out of love, their marriage is enough proof of that. Sasuke wouldn't have married Sakura if he didn't want to; my man can defy the laws and become a terrorist, and you think he'll bend to the will of a person to marry him if it wasn't out of his own choice? Sasuke is Sakura's husband, and he is bound to treat her right. And OP right here just points out how Sakura, despite her amazing qualities, was dimmed down to the traditional gender roles of a housewife in the Anime. Your argument seems pretty unreasonable to me.

@@hydrocy.9165 Any person would want to have a legacy left behind. Naruto wouldn't have had to use talk no jutsu on Sasuke, Sasuke would of course have wanted to carry on his clan to create a legacy. Also, if Sakura really deserved to suffer, why did she end up with Sasuke then? Don't you think that the biggest punishment for Sakura would have been to not get the person for whom she did all that she had done? What was the point of getting Sasuke and Sakura married if she didn't "deserve" to be happy? That is cause she did deserve to be happy. Trash personality, you say. She forced her love on Sasuke her whole life, you say. Did that ever negatively affect Sasuke? No. Sakura destroyed herself for him. She made decisions that negatively impacted her own life, not Sasuke's. And suddenly not everyone calling her out is her own fault? That is just blatant victim blaming. Sakura's main motivation according to the author was Sasuke so obviously he never tried to fix her obsession with him, whether through self reflection or any close acquaintance or mentor. And character development is the main point her. According to what you say, Sasuke deserved a life sentence for his terrorist activities. But he came past that point, didn't he? He deserved to get a second chance. So does Sakura. One of the best Kunoichis, the best medic in town, a dependable mentor and mother. She is one of the most wonderful characters in Boruto and no one can deny that. I am sorry if you think people cannot overcome their discrepancies and change for the better so that they can have a happier future. Sakura deserves happiness as equally as any other character in Naruto and Boruto.

@@hydrocy.9165 My intention is not to justify Sakura's actions, it is to indicate how of a person is able to overcome their shortcomings they should have the right to be happy. Hyper fixation was the main attribute linked to Sakura by kishimoto. Yes she ignored everyone and everything to seek validation from sasuke. That is bad writing, but hyper fixating is human. Also, trauma is not an excuse for someone's behaviour. Sakura was a child when she bullied Naruto. It doesn't matter if she had trauma to back it up or not. What matters is she becomes one of his best team mates in the future and therefore she overcomes her shortcomings. Sorry if I wasted your time, but it seems as if you are just blatantly hating on Sakura for personal reasons. Everyone who changes for the better deserves happiness. Please do not use the excuse of "bad intentions" to justify hate towards her. It was lack of skill on part of kishimoto, and rapid character development without any context that led straight to sasusaku ship becoming canon without delving deeper into their relationship. Also, I prefer you read Sakura hiden and sasuke shinhiden to understand how their marriage is actually happy and mutually committed.

For real though. Although the show was full of blatant fan service I eventually got tired of, and though I did not watch it for the plot as well, the dynamics of the characters were well done and I watched it for that.

When fricking "Fairy tail" does something better, you know you f*cked up

I will always have respect for hiro mishima for the way he has portrayed his female characters despite the disturbing fanservices. So far as kishimoto is concerned, he has lost all my respect for being a blatant liar and a sexist pig

@@johans3164 yea. Though I'll be honest. I enjoyed Fairy Tail despite the friendship mess that it was. I watched it for the characters instead of the plot. I never thought there'd be an anime where I don't "hate" at least one female character.

@@chikitita6763 wendy marvell, the youngest cast of the fairytail manga is more well developed and mature compared to adult sakura haruno. And by sakura haruno I mean the married sakura haruno

Absolute awesome coment

Ehhh. I would consider that just 'girl power' instead of feminism. But yeah you have a point.

@@miss_chelles1338 Yeah, screw feminism.

That must have been quite the story

Modern feminism sucks. enormously. hard.

That's not really more interesting, anything Sakura and Tsunade could do with their strenght, the actual strong people could do better (Madara just drawing the sword of his Perfect Susano'o)and healing is usefull and Sakura kept Naruto alive in the War when he lost Kurama but, ultimately, not flashy enough for Shonen. To posses people Ino had to send her mind to the target leaving her body defenseless. Tenten didn't have that, she had a bunch of random normal weapons inside scrolls(a very finite number) and as Temari showed very useless, there was nothing special about them, don't compare to Gilgamesh which with his swords could actually pierce mountains and kaiju, not even gonna say more about the actual special weapons he has, Tenten thing was throw a bunch of weapons and hope it does something. For Konan to do that she needed a lot of time and preparation and it was an one off thing, a last effort to kill Tobi, not something she could do again(without more time and prep).

literally ino could’ve been so cool honestly i was rooting for her and ten ten but look at where we are😔

@fire lord No, not even close, just explaining what they had to work with because Kishimoto didn't give them much. Most of it was generic, and I agree it was a waste of characters, but KISHIMOTO needed that sweet Op Hax Eyes GG or Monster Inside you makes you god thing.

hinata?...the hyuga style is so cool

@@razkable well yeah but honestly ten ten was the only female ninja out of the kunoichi in the leaf village that was trying to become a strong ninja but for herself and not for somebody else or some boy.. like hinata and sakura and partially ino. But she still didn’t get any screen time at all. (coming from a hinata stan)

What she was stronger then said and Yamato lol

In Boruto , Sakura is quite op , owns a hospital, yet can't pay off her home loan..

He just cant write Women. The end

maru was fine representation of non binary.

@@sparkyphantom92 Its true. But orochimaru does have some good original shit. My fav quote of his is what he said to kimimaro. "Maybe there is no purpose in life, but if you linger a while long enough, you might just find something of value in it. Like how you discovered that flower, or how I found you."

Yo JT!!

@ICEcold JT bruh i just seen you in the comments of vontoocut’s latest vid 😂

@@nullakjg767 he do be spitting even though he was a crazy snake 🐍 😂

Maybe the fan base, but as an actually fan of the show who is also a man, I can give you multiple reasons why Sakura is hated that gave nothing to do with misogyny and the biggest reason is the contrast treatment of Naruto and her crush Sasuke, it’s to the point where naruto could be killed by sasuke and she would still side with him, her characteristics have nothing to do with the reason people hate her, and her loudness is usually fun to watch and listen to, but sometimes she says dumb things. Hinata was never really liked by the fan base and I only personally liked her when she demonstrated loyalty as a friend to naruto and helped everybody else, her quietness was irritating and I personally wished she had sakuras confidence. Both girls are completely loyal to their guy except Hinata won’t forsake her friends for naruto because she believes in helping as many people as possible.

@Robin Baby Sakura literally spent most of her time being a burden throughout the show at least hinata was useful with her byakugun, Sakura literally has no jutsu and her main ability is to heal... not to mention her chemistry with Sasake is even worse than Naruto, sasake has actively pushed Sakura away and tried to kill her multiple times and she was still in love with him the whole series whereas Hinatas crush on Naruto makes more sense because she saw him as a hero for standing up to her bullies when she was younger. Naruto never actively rejected Hinata and the worst thing he’s ever done is friend zone her a couple times, he was already in love with her during the pain arc. Hinata is not the best girl instead she’s the quiet girl that got lucky with the successful guy whereas Sakura is the Fiery Girl that never gave up on the most popular guy. Karen had more compatiblity with Sasake tbh

personally, the reason I hate Sakura is the way she treated Naruto. Literally for 80% of the show she treated Naruto terribly and even if she did care for him she'd always do something to mess it up. Unlike Hinata where all she wanted was Naruto to notice her, but even besides that we see that she respected Naruto because as kids she knew the person he really was. Although I can understand that there's a lot of fans that do demonize Sakura because of her qualities, I don't really understand it either cause even tho I don't really like the character, I've always personally found her pretty XD.

Personally i just don't like her whole sasuke obsession. Like girl get a life outside of dick and the dicks they're attached to, you can have goals AND be a romantically inclined person. I hate that trait in people, the obsession with sex and love taking over EVERYTHING.

@@Gingersnaps_the_pumpkin_kitty omg I completely forgot about that somehow 💀. Yea that is the worst thing that I have seen in any type of show, like wtf

I mean that's kinda how she fought against Kido Tsumiki.....

Yes, i agree lol🤣.

I don't have a problem with that. All three of them were quite ignorant of the path it took to get to their goals, its just that sakura didn't grow out of her childish goals and instead strove to make a new one that was better.

Amen, PREACH IT

I agree, although men should pretty much always be the best. Otherwise it won't make sense. Men are just wired differently from women.

​@@icebox1954 ...no? the main difference of men and women in combat is average physical strength/muscle mass AND I REALLY DONT THINK NARUTO CARES ABOUT MUSCLE MASS OF ALL THINGS. besides, if they were all trained for this, they would all be equally competent with a few outliers.

@@icebox1954 Ah, your standard troll. U mad? Try again, little snowflake.

​@@cobweb8129 They wouldn't be equally competent, not even close. And besides the Raikage and his family then you are right, physical strength really isn't focused on. But I never mentioned muscle strength I wrote that men and women are wired differently. The reason men dominate is because they are by nature more aggressive and prone to be more disagreeable at the extremes. That has nothing to do with muscle strength, but rather how the male brain functions, which is why men will always be the best ninjas. You seem to forget that no one cares about the faceless, average ninjas that are chunin, who were born without much talent, heir to a ninja clan or godlike powers. In that men and women might be equally bad. But at the extremes men will always be better (unless you are the mother of all chakra from a Japanese fairy tale).

Everything's wrong with that as that's a MASSIVE downgrade.All the female cast becomes housewives like they're mothers before them.

Hinata was literally the worst character ever for Naruto to marry, I hate how she is so fucking shallow in personality in all the series except for Boruto, she is so shy that Kishimoto forgot to give her redeeming qualities for being a shy gal, just a stalker of a protag, she had really great potential with the beef between her and her sister and clan but it was wasted

but becoming head of the Hyuuga clan was not her goal at all

@ꜱᴏꜰɪᴀ ᴍᴀɴᴛᴇɢᴀ well, you're not the author to decide. we have what we have

I feel that except Temari Kishimoto did dirty to every female character in Naruto

She has her moments after but yeah fight wise she only had the sasori fight really...

Considering the fact that we don’t get too many Sakura moments in shippuden that’s comparable to what she did in the kazekage rescue arc, it’s not much of a surprise

All these writers and their misogyny inadvertently writing the most homoromantic characters ever...just absurd...

@@christopherb501 the fact that half the comment section is defending kishimoto's shitty writing shows how equally misogynistic they are. Not worth getting into a debate over them with how much backwards mental gymnastics they will do to defend the series

If Sasuke was a girl , Naruto would've become the best tragic romance ever 😂.

I agree bro. Hinata is a good character but is poorly written. She only got her big moment in Naruto the Last and that was just sad.

@@ghostlyyin I was very disappointed by hinata honestly. She had a great backstory but she never lived up to that potential. Imagine if she became the head of the Hyuuga clan and abolished the caged bird seal in Neji's memory or something! But instead she's just focused on romance like every other female character except Tsunade.

@@ghostlyyin the last wasn't even written by kishi he wouldn't have given her that too lol

@@georgespiggott5615 ... and except for Tenten! She is at some point shown to care for Lee in what could be seen as a romantic interest, but it is so vague that it could be as well not be there. The fillers actually did a great job with SOME of the female characters (like showing the development in the second Chunin Arc, and having solid female characters like Guren and Fuu), but the authors totally missed the opportunity to do something with Hinata. Maybe they expected there will be something by Kishimoto himself in the main story, but it never came, and then it was too late. But I totally agree with the medic stuff. I was so annoyed by that!

@@thelistener5440 fun fact: in the manga hinata is on fewer pages than tenten

I agree. No joke the Naruto fanfiction stories are more entertaining and gives more attention to detail on female and male characters equally.

Ok read that instead

@Alien Spider Ikr. I know a couple of good Naruto fanfiction stories. I can share you the link if you want.

@@kingnamor7777 Oh please share, I would love to read them...I recently finished the series

@@kingnamor7777 Yeah by destroying their personality and inserting the way fanfic writer interpret the character

No I think it’s more to do with the man than the time limits There was no Time restrictions for him to make Sakura a better character

Tsunade is the most well written female character in naruto and this scene is filler

And he didn't have freedom because original he wanted to have more arc before the chunin exam but the editor forced him to cut down and tusnade and sakura were supposed to have a fight in the pain arc but that's was cut because of time to deliver

I mean, Dan's goal WAS to become Hokage, that was never Tsunade's goal, she only became one after the village asked her and was then inspired by Naruto.

And the fact that Sasuke didn't even know what his daughter looked like is just the cherry on top lol

thats a shonen for ya. dont complain about lack of romance then there are animes made specifically for romance.

@@QWERTY-gp8fd that's just shitty writing. There are shonen that have better romantic relationships

@@QWERTY-gp8fd yes I will complain, that's not lack of romance, that's just a bad writing and a insulting couple formation

@@MessedUpSystem u know the show itself told u its gonna be bad by being battle shonen without drama. u shouldve known from the moment u seen the tags. (adventure, shonen, comedy). the holy trinity of shitty anime. unless there is "drama,mystery,sci fi,thriller,psychological" tag its gonna be shit. there is literally no exception to this rule. complaining about it would only stress u out. instead watch something like steins gate,re zero

Seriously. If you don't want to dedicate time to romance, or even female characters...fine...I guess...but then don't shill them if you aren't going to DO anything with them!

yeah sasuke and naruto chose their wives solely because "thats what men do".... the show reflects Japan's somewhat fucked up culture

Ok, but Sakura having mental issues does sound likely- and that’s not a dig at her either. She literally repressed her thoughts and feelings to the point where a different entity (inner Sakura) formed. That’s not normal. (And I don’t think she’s her conscience or anything, and the point of the subconscious is that you don’t notice it. So-)

@@CapeEniEer So you can see why America likes it so much.

I'm pretty sure Choji and Karui never interacted once in shippuden

Yeah lol... seriously how did he manage to accidentally(?) write such a beautiful, meaningful, and heartfelt relationship between Naruto and Sasuke, and not even realize that it’s way better than any of the “actual” romantic relationships in the story...

It’s funny, he could write male characters but not females. Many writers have the same issue so they end up accidentally writing a well developed romance between two guys. Real “romantic” stories can’t write good chemistry between characters for the same reason. Everything gets overshadowed by the male/female dynamic. And this is how I got into shipping male/male only.

@@blue1584 what's was so beautiful about it? Naruto obsession with sasuke was the most annoying thing i ever seen in any anime history

@@ashskullz i'm gay af but i agree like damn even i'm not that desperate, i honestly shipped naruto and sakura as a kid because they were simp losers

@@ashskullz Well personally, I think it’s beautiful how they found comfort in each other’s existence when they were both completely alone, how they understood each other more than anyone else, how they were each other’s very first friends, and how they cared so much about each other that they were willing to die for each other multiple times. I personally think it’s beautiful that Naruto never gave up on Sasuke, even when everyone else did. And that Sasuke, who was willing to cut all ties with everyone else, ultimately couldn’t sever his bond with Naruto. And I think that it’s quite poetic and beautiful that it was ultimately his bond with Naruto that saved him from continuing down a path of darkness. I suppose whether or not you find these moments ‘beautiful’ is subjective, but it’s impossible to deny that their relationship is the most well developed in the series, and the most central to the plot and their character arcs.

Minato was basically her protector because heaven forbid she learn to protect herself better with or without him. She merely existed to keep kurama sealed inside her due to her being uzamaki. The episodes do show how tough as nails she is at least. It's a 180 that Naruto is basically told and technically forced into learning how not very long after becoming a shinobi.

@@ShadowSkyX Wait, was she even a housewife?

She also had the dream of being Hokage. She got to be a Hokage's wife and another one's mother instead.

@@Toshimi1043 I mean it was also Orochimaru's desire to be Hokage as well as Fugaku and many others. Minato was just supremely skilled. I think Kushina deserved a cool fight though

I thought Kushina and Minato were both working, and alternated between house care and missions. Both were shown "house wife" types of outfits at some point.

Goatkashi 😷

That's because Minato was already shown to be Hokage in the first chapter and writer was making up story as he goes, so obviously he can't make Kushina into Hokage all of a sudden because of some stupid representation.

makes you wonder..who was her sensei

@@kyleward7417 That does not mean that they could have done something more interesting with her. Also, since she was introduced much later when it was already clear Minato was the one to be Hokage, they just could have given her a different goal, and accomplishing this. It's not that hard.

@@thelistener5440 There are countless "could've" and possibilities, and her character wasn't really important enough for Kishi to make a whole different role for her, considering she only shows up for Naruto to get KCM mode and had no relevance to the story. "They could've given her a different Role, it's not that hard" Why? Why exactly should they give her a role? Go ahead and answer that and I might take you seriously, SJW.

@@kyleward7417 Like all female characters. You are just proving OP's point. Thanks.

Yea. It's a meme now how little screen time she is given.

Bro I got to "tenten fan" and I just had to laugh. But in all seriousness this is just a problem in shounen which sucks fucking ass tbh.

@@bm1259 I wish there was shounen created for women and girls.

@@glistening7178 Well that kinda contradicts the shounen genre title. Something that would probably get given the genre Shoujo and I doubt japan would just get rid if that separation.

@@glistening7178 Bleach and One Piece do better jobs at writing female characters. Also, Magical Girl genre is probably the closest to what you will get to in terms of that. Wonder Egg Priority is a recent show this season which you might like

Fair enough point, but I think the women had it far worse tho

@@keezara9166 So true😔

ah yeah the famous when a show tries to be so painstakingly straight it becomes gay phenomenon

Please stop Swearing.

@@full--metal I dislike shipping gay ships over the canon straight, but dear god, does so many animes (and western tv shows too) make the main male friendship somehow more romantic than the actual intended romantic relationship.

Yeah

This is true, couldn't help but laugh at the realization that Sasuke and Naruto are a more understandable and working relationship than most. What the hell

They say that about Midoriya too and irritates me even when I havent watched the show.

I mean let's be real here. Tanjiro is pretty generic even for shounen main characters. It would have been better writing if he wasn't that kind before and the trauma and understanding of suffering made him realize the nobility in kindness and respect for life.

I will never get ppl who hate on Tanjiro or any main male characters for being “too kind and caring”. Tanjiro’s kindness or just his entire personality is the main reason why he’s one of my most favorite characters.

@@yelenasimp2936 It's why he's generic. He's a dime a dozen. Shounen are mostly geared towards boys and boys usually don't find kindness to be a greater virtue than being stoic or interesting as a character (rightfully so). I have seen hundreds of Tanjiro in my time. He is simply boring and uninspired. Pretty much a Gary Stu.

​@@miki_lla402 I counted that in when I claimed he was generic. Sympathy for your foe is pretty much universal for a shounen MC. That Naruto is using talk-no-jutsu is a side-effect of that trait. His basic nature is the same as every other shounen MC. He's kind and considerate, he's stubborn, he has sympathy for the enemy, he grows stronger easily and is uniquely giften in some way or another, he is morally right all the time, he's self-righteous, he's likeable by most and easily acquires friends. He has some specific reason to pursue his goal and follows the hero's journey. As I said, generic shounen MC. You set the bar pretty fucking low imo.

I agree with this 💯👍

Naruto isn't a poor representation of women and it never has been. It's a poor representation of feminism, which doesn't represent women but rather an ideology.

I don't like naruto and fandom

But he wrote some good female characters

@@Mr_Mistah the hokage of the series is a woman tho and they legit had a segment with shikamaru and his dad talking about equality and shit between them
