Another random thought, but am I the only one who thought that after Iruka sensei got such an iconic character introduction into the franchise... that he would have somewhat of a bigger role in the manga?

I recognize that his role is that of Naruto's school teacher and that he graduates early on in the series, but I was always looking for more 'Iruka-supporting-Naruto' interactions and I feel like I was starved; especially considering how good each one that we DID get was. Iruka worrying about Naruto in the chuunin exams, him being the one to comfort him after Jiraiya's death, celebrating his homecoming, etc. etc. All great moments!

And of course, that early scene when he saves Naruto from Mizuki and just looks at him and goes, "Your loneliness must have been painful, right? I understand..." Goodness! It's the first time that Naruto felt his own humanity was recognized and recognized in a way that moved his teacher so much that he was willing to die to save him!

If you ask me, I think the reason Iruka didn't feature more is because he wouldn't have let half the people who treated Naruto badly (including Naruto himself) get away with it, and then Naruto would have been radicalized by the realization that the village was crap for treating him and all the other orphans so badly...

are you really going to make me believe that this naruto sincerely did not know the difference between love for humans and ramen, and that he psyched himself into having a crush for years because of a misunderstanding?

and that’s not even getting into how clearly he saw sasuke’s emotions as not directed towards him, but somewhere else - and was the only person to correctly do so - as a literal c h i l d?

naruto is a romantic at heart look at how excited he is about his parents’ lovestory 🥺🥺🥺

G R O S S! UGH! What the fuck is this bullshit?!

Can you imagine behavior like this in real life? You kindly greet your friend's long-absent partner and their kid gets in between you to try and keep YOU AWAY FROM THEM as your friend LAUGHS?! I'd be furious and publicly humiliated! What the fuck has Sakura been telling her daughter about her supposed best friend? And how dramatic and stupid is Sarada to make such a scene in public over a simple greeting?!

Fuck! What an anti-social, unbearable, and wretched family! Ino, yet again, is shafted by being forced to play along with this garbage. Honestly!!!

Love how they kept in Sarada feeling the need to protect her father from her mother’s friend with Sakura laughing, awkward and embarrassed in the background

"Naruto, happy birthday"

You know what? I'm just going to say it.

If Naruto's version of a "Changed Hyuuga Clan" involves Hiashi Hyuuga still being Clan Leader, a Child of the First Branch still being the Heir, and no actual Restorative Justice, then it's not a change that matters to me in any sense.

"Thanks, Naruto-kun for changing the Hyuuga" Hiashi says, smiling, not disgraced or on some kind of exhile of atonement, and I'm supposed to believe him about everything being different?!

Right!

Because Hiashi's version of 'different,' the one that he told his brother about, still involved his genius branch nephew dying for his main branch daughter with his goddamn seal etched on to his face for all to see.

I'm so tired of people commenting on (What) Should Have Been (Mine) saying "Hiashi PROMISED that NARUTO-SAMA CHANGED the Hyuuga! DXDX. You can't say he didn't!"

Talk is so cheap in Naruto, especially coming from these reformed villains like Hiashi and Orochimaru and all the Konoha Elders. Forgive me for not trusting my authority figures without concrete proof.

If you live and die the gospel of post-Kishimoto work, where Naruto can't break out of a genjutsu because Kurama for some reason decided to take a day off, hard-trained-for super strength is now an inheritable trait, and Boruto deserves to be called sunshine even though he's never suffered a day in his life and doesn't have to persist to be bright a propos of anything, fine.

It's content. Interpret it however you want.

But maybe don't read MY CLEARLY TAGGED WORK and make a fit because I'm making a moral criticism
