  • The main story is fine but...

    6.0
    By yamachamama, Jun 08, 2013
    The anime is so overrun with fillers that it's hard to enjoy.



    Regardless of whether or not you've read the manga, the quality of the fillers on average are so bad it makes me stop watching for months.



    They do everything possible to stretch out the anime and quality suffers.

  • I'm just tired of Naruto Shippuden

    3.5
    By Slinkgirl95, Mar 17, 2013
    Now, I already know that this review will get thumbs down, because of the title and the score, and, well, overall, the review itself. I'm just tired of Naruto Shippuden, I'm sorry, but, I just can't get into it. There was a time that I did like Naruto Shippuden, when it first started, but now, I just don't care.



    Now, don't get me wrong, I do like Naruto. I still think so, in a way. My big brother first showed it to me, but I didn't really care for it, but then when I saw the fight of Naruto and Sasuke vs Haku, I got into it, and watched the first season in English. Obviously, I knew it would be laughably bad in English, with all the bad and annoying voices. Naruto had so much to love, from the fight scenes to the concept of ninjas to the music. Naruto Shippuden then came out a few years later, and I thought it was good at first, but then after the fight on the bridge, when Naruto goes Nine-tails against Orochimaru, I don't know what happened. I didn't really see much else of it. I just didn't care for it, and that my brothers would watch it. I eventually got around to watching it through 2011 and last year, when my brother wouldn't shut up about it, but, oh, my god, I found it so boring and serious.



    This anime, unlike the first series, is just so serious, and is barely funny. Any scene that could be funny, and makes my brother laugh, doesn't make me laugh. I mean, look at Dragonball Z and Sailor Moon. They're both sequels to other anime/manga, and they came out good, with serious parts but could also make you laugh. But in Naruto Shippuden's case, no. The story is boring, I can't keep up with it, and I don't even know what the hell is going on at times.



    The characters have all changed and are now boring. Naruto used to be a brat who used to pull pranks and such and was funny. Now, he's all mature and doesn't pull pranks. It's just like with Ben Tennyson. Also, how come everyone else seems more powerful than Naruto? Like, Naruto doesn't even seem more powerful. He may be more powerful with the Kyuubi than ever before, but everyone else seems more powerful than him. Also, if the title of the show is Naruto Shippuden, then why the hell is he like absent from nearly every episode? Like, he'll be in an episode, and then there's like twenty episodes without him or that, or for like a minute, and then there will be like two episodes of him, and then ten episodes without him! It's stupid! I mean, I understand that we don't want to see the same character again and again, and we want to have an episode focused on someone else for a change, I understand that part, but here, there's just no Naruto, just a bunch of other characters that I don't care about. Also, there's too many characters in this show, like I know a show needs lots of characters to make it good, I mean, look at the Simpsons. I mean, yes, we don't want like five characters, that'll be boring seeing the same characters again and again, we need a lot. But this anime goes overboard with so many characters, there's like a thousand of them! There's like a new character nearly every episode! I mean, yes, Sailor Moon did have quite a number of characters, but at least they had Usagi (Sailor Moon) in every episode and every chapter of the manga. I don't care about any of the villains. They had some good villains in Naruto, but here, I just don't really care. Sasuke really only seems like the only good villain right now.



    I don't like the animation in this show either, I'm sorry, but, I just don't like it here. I mean, the animation was good in Naruto, but here, it just looks so bland. It looks like traditional animation got mixed with digital animation. Like, sometimes, there's like no shadowing on the characters, which was one of my issues with Sailor Moon, is that in some scenes where they're just standing around or talking, there's barely any shading on the characters, making them look horrendous. No offence. Here, you're working with digital animation, but there's barely any shadowing on them. Sometimes, the characters look too bright when they don't have shadowing on them. The backgrounds, however, have improved since Naruto. The backgrounds in Naruto weren't bad, but they did look washed out, but not as horrendous as Sailor Moon's backgrounds, no offence.



    The fights scenes... are there any? The fight scenes are boring. The earlier fights scenes, for example between Kyuubi-Naruto and Orochimaru, on the bridge, was good, but most of the other fight scenes are just so boring. I mean, it's like they throw a few fists at each other, and then, oh noes, they start talking! There you go, that's your fight scene, it's like two minutes of fighting each other, and then boring scenes of them talking about crap that we either already know or something we don't know, that lasts like two episodes. There are no fight scenes for me to enjoy. And also, the fight between Kyuubi-Naruto and Pain was done by a different animation company as my big brother said, and the animation was so horrendously-hilariously bad. But I mean, you have a big fight there, but done by some other company, that's just so terrible! Also, the fight between Sasuke and Itachi was such a disappointment, I mean, we had all been waiting for that fight, but there was like no fight! I don't care if Itachi was sick, I wanted to see a good fight between them, and Itachi dies in such a lame way; oh, he goes up to Sasuke, but then falls down and dies, wow. Also, the fights between the reanimated characters aren't even fight scenes. They just fight for a few minutes, and then start talking and have a huge flashback of their past, and then basically are sealed away. Lame.



    The music is all too dramatic as well. There's not one score that is meant to be for a humourous scene. Maybe one or two, but that's it. It's all dramatic and serious music everywhere. I mean, I liked the music in Naruto, and the dramatic and serious music at moments was good, but here, it just annoys me. None of the openings impressed me, maybe one or two, but that's it. And also, what is up with the openings and endings making no sense at all to the opening? It's just random characters running around or doing something completely different to the anime. That's kind of one of my issues with anime openings and endings, is that they make no sense to the show, or their lyrics either, sometimes.



    Also, why the hell is there so much filler in this anime? I don't care if the anime is catching up to me manga, manga is lame to read. There's just filler, filler everywhere, and I mean EVERYWHERE. It's every episode, it's filler. There will be like thirty episode of filler, and then REAL episodes for a while, and then straight back to filler, whether it's about some character's past or travelling somewhere else. But it's just always filler. I mean, look at Code Lyoko Season 1. That was basically filler and no true story, but at least they made it entertaining and rewatchable in a way. Here, no.



    The only things that I do like in Naruto Shippuden, such as Killer Bee, Sasuke, and the Kyuubi. Killer Bee has the eight-tailed octopus-ox, or Hachibi, who can control the Hachibi. Killer Bee loves to rap, and is hilarious, and I love the nickname that Naruto gave him, "Ocotpops". Sasuke is now evil, and will kill anyone who gets in his way, and is even more dark than who he was in Naruto. However, I hate how he has been missing for episodes in Naruto, and one thing I hated was in one episode, in the preview, it showed Sasuke was going to be in the next episode, but it was a lie! The Kyuubi, as always, since Naruto, been a great demon.



    I don't really have anything against any fan of this show, I just don't care for Naruto Shippuden anymore. My brother annoys the hell out of me about Naruto Shippuden. All I can do is roll my eyes and sigh in annoyance. But don't feel like I am writing this review against one person, because I am not. I am just putting my opinion out there, and why I dislike Naruto Shippuden. It's probably not the worst anime ever, there is probably another anime out there that is worst. But it's just an anime I don't care for. That's all.moreless

    Been watching Naruto since it came on Toonami. I must say I'm a Narutard. I prefer it subbed and it's great as a whole. Though I do have to saw the filler and flashbacks are annoying. Naruto will forever be the best anime ever. It's got good humor, awesome fight scenes, and interesting philosophies that make you think.
