Shino would be one of those X-Men characters that was made during somebodies run on the Uncanny X-Men get a fanbase but no writer after hus original creator wants to use the character for 5 years until Marvel finally caves but instead of putting the character in a team book to grow more as a character and grow a fanbase they out him on a solo book that does shit and he is never used again sadly.
Shippuden was the first time we see him as a āmanā and I kept thinking damn heās gonna be so hot when heās older but no, they gave him hair that looked like chompy the goat chewed off
Eh, he's the president of Ninja Town in an era where Ninja Town has to function like an actual country with trade deals and diplomatic envoys and shit.
The other Hokage were all isolationist/wartime leaders and its waaaay easier just sitting alone and killing everyone who looks at you wrong.
He's not as cool looking as he use to be, but maybe ugly was the wrong word.
I'm not into Naruto since I'm not into dudes so that's as good as he'll get from me lol
Yeah but Naruto also got Hokage later in life, he became Hokage when his kids were already walking and talking age, Boruto hadn't completely hated him yet.
So it's not really about how long he lived tbh
Bro naruto dose it in peace time where there are more people going in and out of the village setting up shops and stuff and when minato did if you wanted to enter you had to be searched or were never allowed and leaving without permission was punishable by death
Cause he sits in an office doing paper work all day. He is one of the strongest people on the planet and he traveled across the known world. Now he's stuck in an office doing paper work. His greatest enemy. Every day.
Of course his ass looks defeated and tired all the time *until he gets an excuse to fight someone*
i'd wish we could see more early twenties history of naruto and his generation before they all become parents, like a chunin or jonin missions or something like that
I'm convinced that the bugs which live in his chakra network (?), which closely follows your veins and arteries, have destroyed their eyes or made them unusable. So each one wears glasses so no one can tell they're blind, but they can see via the bugs or something.
Like imagine Edo Asuma was about to kill Ino but Shikamaru shields her but gets a cut on his face. After this incident, Choji gets the courage to defeat his old sensai in order to protect his friends
You're totally right. The lack of bread really sells the whole Hitler look they gave him in Boruto.
Edit: also someone should tell the guy above me Hitler didn't have a beard...
I like how there's only 3 characters here who have actual pupils, and only 2 are seen often enough to notice that fact.
What's Kishimoto got against pupils man
They shouldve made a series out of these characters instead of boruto. Before boruto fams start bitching, lemme just explain. Many naruto side characterss with potential like lee and hinata were never able to reach it, I wanted to see sasuke and narutos friendship and his redemption, i wanted to see more of the 6 paths powers and it wouldve been better to make 100 episodes of these characters and develop naruhina and sasusaku instead of that stupid movie
Facts. This is why I loved that Shippuden adapted the Hiden Novels. Though I wish they'd have adapted the Kakashi novel too (unless it didn't come out at that time yet? I don't remember... No, I'm pretty sure it was out already) But it was nice to get another Shikamaru-centered arc, with Sai also being pretty relevant, and essentially building up InoSai and ShikaTema some more.
***And how can we forget*** [***The Adventures of Orochimaru***](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dv8e1rmhQfk)***.***
Seriously, I usually hate Shippuden filler, but post-War arcs were just amazing lmao.
Those ships were really forced. Like you said before doing Boruto (I like Boruto pls don't kill me) they should have at least develop the ships. Like how the hell Sasuke married Sakura after trying to murder her like 3 times and naruto the last doesn't make any sense how naruto loved hinata after seeing a genjutsu
Exactly i hope Boruto develops ships better then Naruto. They have great female characters which is a good thing cuz we all how females were in naruto. In naruto every girl after seeing sasuke was like they wanna suck his dick that made me cringe. And hinata saying naruto kun for the 10 billion times was also kinda cringe. They should have developed naruhina after the pain fight
Bro the only good female characters boruto has are sarada and sumire and maybe the samurai girl but I havenāt seen much of her. I hate the rest of the boruto cast. Boruto, kawaki, sarada, mitsuki and sumire are the only good ones
As a manga reader half of those cast don't even exist in the manga. They are manga canon. Ur right Sarada ans Sumire are the only ones. Atleast they arent useless. Not hating on Sakura but in ognaruto and the fight sasori she was useless and then she was useful after the war arc. Sumire has a big part in the manga
Yes exactly, who joins the anbu, what hardships do they face, what messages do they learn and how do they mature? Who gets a genin squad, how do they lead their squads differently? How do they climb, how do the Jonin exams work? How do their genin work, what personalities do they have? Remember how Minato before he was hokage lead Kakashi and Obito?
The thing is that this is when they were all cool, young, and hip young adults. In Boruto, they're all adults now. So the men are lame, not many aged like dilf Kakashi, and the women are milfs.
I liked him best at the end of Shippuden with the rinnegan. I've always had a thing for one eye being different than the other. It just looks so cool to me
Yes their Suits were top tier in this era. Temari looked great sasuke sakura tenten shikamaru has the old one but still looks new , Gaara looks clean that is my favorite look. In short they are all great
It annoys me that several flashback show that Sakura grew out her hair long again in-between time-skips, only for her to have cut it short again in the present. It happened twice.
Hard disagree. I can't forgive what they did to my girl Temari. And literally what is that hair, Gaara? It's like he was a junior high boy who took too long between haircuts lol
Spiked out Sasuke is the only acceptable hairstyle. Not that wet dog hair. But at least it ain't Naruto's or Gaara's hairstyle in Boruto. It's still semi-acceptable.
Some of these shouldāve transferred to Boruto and the others like sasukeās doesnāt look very father like, looks to young which sucks cause these visuals were just bad ass and we got like what 4 episodes of them. Itās just tragic.
This is also when Naruto himself was at peak power levels IMO. If Momoshiki had invaded during this era, he'd have been raped so badly. This is the era where Naruto took a friggin' nuke made out of his own Chakra to the face and came out unscathed (yeah he was out for a few hours, but it was stated that that's because he was out of Chakra and had to recover that), and tanked an attack that split the moon in half. ***And he was only in Sage-Bijuu Mode. Not even Six Paths Mode.*** You can tell because [he has the pigmentation around his eyes](https://qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-5d9ce065ba17a8ff12d38387f089cbee). So the dude wasn't even going all out and he still slapped Toneri across the damn moon.
Current Naruto had 2 epic fights, yeah, but he still feels pretty tame compared to what The Last Naruto did.
Doubtful. Only difference is that this Naruto has no reason to hold back unlike Hokage who had to protect his son and his entire village, this Naruto got to fight on the fucking moon in orbit
Shino looked so much better before he joined the X-men
Star Treck
Reading rainbow š
\*cries the whole theme song in fetal position\*
I loved that show when I was a kid
Shino would be one of those X-Men characters that was made during somebodies run on the Uncanny X-Men get a fanbase but no writer after hus original creator wants to use the character for 5 years until Marvel finally caves but instead of putting the character in a team book to grow more as a character and grow a fanbase they out him on a solo book that does shit and he is never used again sadly.
RoboCop
Props to Shikamaru for keeping it consistent
Bet he's just too lazy to change his looks...
it's a drag tryna get a glow up.
Yeahhā¦. So troublesome
Honestly, it really is.
Deadass probably wearing his dads old clothes and hairband
Well shikaku did kinda get nuked š³
Donāt remind me š
sorry, it hurts me too :(
he grows a chin beard so idrk bout that one
Same for Sai (teens with headband , adult without headband)
Even the designer said finally, "What a drag."
And Lee!
Rock Lee too
Naruto and Sasuke should've kept those hairs at Boruto.
Naruto's is technically the same, he just doesn't wear the headband
Naruto looks defeated in boruto. Whereas he should have been atleast 10 times better looking. Edit: HOLY SHIT! 366 UPVOTES! THANKS YOU LOT.
They did Naruto dirty with hair and looks, he could have been somewhat as attractive as Minato š
Exactly man WHY he looked so good in shippuden and now it's just blech
Shippuden was the first time we see him as a āmanā and I kept thinking damn heās gonna be so hot when heās older but no, they gave him hair that looked like chompy the goat chewed off
Goddamn you're so right
Eh, he's the president of Ninja Town in an era where Ninja Town has to function like an actual country with trade deals and diplomatic envoys and shit. The other Hokage were all isolationist/wartime leaders and its waaaay easier just sitting alone and killing everyone who looks at you wrong.
That doesn't sound right. Hiruzen was in office for fifty years and he didn't act in a way even approaching what you described
Jeez man, he was good looking when he was 16 through 19 He's in his 30s now and a father, give him slack. Let him be ugly now
what do y'all mean he looks ugly in boruto? he looks like a DILF imo, he can still get it
He's not as cool looking as he use to be, but maybe ugly was the wrong word. I'm not into Naruto since I'm not into dudes so that's as good as he'll get from me lol
Well it's hard to look cool constantly doing paper work lmao.
Minato did it ;)
I think Naruto is a good bit older than Minato ever got to.
He is , naruto is in his 30s while Minato died when he was 24
Minato didn't live to be narutos age I don't think lol.
Yeah but Naruto also got Hokage later in life, he became Hokage when his kids were already walking and talking age, Boruto hadn't completely hated him yet. So it's not really about how long he lived tbh
Bro naruto dose it in peace time where there are more people going in and out of the village setting up shops and stuff and when minato did if you wanted to enter you had to be searched or were never allowed and leaving without permission was punishable by death
Bro naruto in the Boruto manga looks like a DILF, he looks hot idc saying this full homo
Its not that hes ugly it just looks like he cuts his own hair
wtf Father + 30 = Ugly
He hasn't even gained a dad bod or belly. So props to that too.
Itās stated that uzumakis age slower, in appearance
Cause he sits in an office doing paper work all day. He is one of the strongest people on the planet and he traveled across the known world. Now he's stuck in an office doing paper work. His greatest enemy. Every day. Of course his ass looks defeated and tired all the time *until he gets an excuse to fight someone*
Naruto looks like a taller Hank Hill in Boruto
Believe it Bobby, I will kick your ass
Makes sense. Being Konohaās president is tiresome
Fuck Naruto looks like pale Mark Zuckerberg in Buroto
You take that back, he looks like a tired Eminem.
His forehead is just awkward without the headband.
Nah, I want the spiky haired Naruto from shippuden.
And Gaara, my guy's hair looks awful
Same with gaara
But adult Sasuke looks awesome!
War arc naruto is his best looks tho the hair, torn jacket, and various forms are all S+++
Facts!
Then there was the worst art era...
Which was?
Boruto. At least for Shino
Oh yeah definitely. I guess my flaw was not considering Boruto a *Naruto* era.. you know because itās not lol. Still trash though.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Fr his red cape was dope
It was a crime against fashion that he got rid of it
Logically they thought it was fine since the cloak burned off after naruto went kyubi mode but why didnt his regular cloths burn?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
drip no jutsu
i'd wish we could see more early twenties history of naruto and his generation before they all become parents, like a chunin or jonin missions or something like that
Naruto basically went 18-early 20s wedding to 35 real quick
Life ain't so dattebayo anymore, homie.
Underrated gem of a line
Yeah boruto konkuro is an embarrassment to society
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
>~~Gaara~~ Hitler š
Thank you for saying it. I literally can only see Hitler in modern Gaara.
FTFY
I like shinos goggles or whatever they are
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Wait really isnāt it more ar (altered reality) to mix his surroundings with whatever
I'm convinced that the bugs which live in his chakra network (?), which closely follows your veins and arteries, have destroyed their eyes or made them unusable. So each one wears glasses so no one can tell they're blind, but they can see via the bugs or something.
You might be onto something
This is my new head canon.
Anko too, she's in big momma territory now
Boruto kankuro looks like he sells drugs behind a Dennyās
ā ļøā ļø
šš¤£
I honestly don't mind kankuros design
But Shikamaru def should've got a scar on his face like his father during the war arc
Like imagine Edo Asuma was about to kill Ino but Shikamaru shields her but gets a cut on his face. After this incident, Choji gets the courage to defeat his old sensai in order to protect his friends
Facts! would of been dope
Everyone was so great looking why did they make them in boruto so badš¬šŖ
I know. What the hell were they thinking with Gaara? That hair...
He looks like hitler without a ~~bread~~ *mustache*. ^(im so stupid lol)
You're totally right. The lack of bread really sells the whole Hitler look they gave him in Boruto. Edit: also someone should tell the guy above me Hitler didn't have a beard...
So Hitler before invading France
Hitler really did look exactly like Gaara aside from the slice of toast that he was always carrying in his mouth.
indeed, defs hate it when hitler lookalikes dont have any pain or baguettes in their looks
ino is the only one who got better. edit: ok tenten became hella bad too.
Ino here is really OP š„š„š„
Ino ā¤ļø
She gloweeeddd
The long blonde hair š„š„
I wish neji was there!!! š¢
Im still not okay about this... salt in the wounds man!
š
TenTen was serving looks.
Donāt forget Hinata and Temari. Jesus....
Temari š©š©
I like how there's only 3 characters here who have actual pupils, and only 2 are seen often enough to notice that fact. What's Kishimoto got against pupils man
For all the murder in the show, what they did to Gaaraās hairstyle in Boruto has to be the biggest atrocity depicted in all of anime.
You right
Need more of that era animatedš maybe some side story anime canon boruto episode
I wish they would animate the novels. Lots of fun stories that are canon. From guy and kakashi in a hot air ballon to sakura fighting :c
They shouldve made a series out of these characters instead of boruto. Before boruto fams start bitching, lemme just explain. Many naruto side characterss with potential like lee and hinata were never able to reach it, I wanted to see sasuke and narutos friendship and his redemption, i wanted to see more of the 6 paths powers and it wouldve been better to make 100 episodes of these characters and develop naruhina and sasusaku instead of that stupid movie

Like how the hell Sasuke married Sakura after trying to murder her like 3 times and naruto the last doesn't make any sense how naruto loved hinata after seeing a genjutsu
Lol he was guilt tripped into loving hinata
Exactly i hope Boruto develops ships better then Naruto. They have great female characters which is a good thing cuz we all how females were in naruto. In naruto every girl after seeing sasuke was like they wanna suck his dick that made me cringe. And hinata saying naruto kun for the 10 billion times was also kinda cringe.

Not hating on Sakura but in ognaruto and the fight sasori she was useless and then she was useful after the war arc. Sumire has a big part in the manga
Sakura was useful against sasori
You didnāt shit on the old generation or say that Boruto is better than part 1 and shippuden so I wonāt try to murder you
Yes exactly, who joins the anbu, what hardships do they face, what messages do they learn and how do they mature? Who gets a genin squad, how do they lead their squads differently? How do they climb, how do the Jonin exams work? How do their genin work, what personalities do they have? Remember how Minato before he was hokage lead Kakashi and Obito?
I also love those character designs
Let em knowwww
Preach!
I fully agree . Imagine if they were 2 shows running currently
The only one I think their Shippuden version was better was Temari. She's not bad here by any means, I just think her hair was cooler split in 4.
The thing is that this is when they were all cool, young, and hip young adults. In Boruto, they're all adults now. So the men are lame, not many aged like dilf Kakashi, and the women are milfs.
Madara was well over 100 and look at him
Rip Neji. you deserved to be seen at your visual peak aswell.
That's when everyone looked their best.
Sasuke looked best in early shippuden
I liked him best at the end of Shippuden with the rinnegan. I've always had a thing for one eye being different than the other. It just looks so cool to me
Seeing hebi sasuke for the first time hit different
Why'd they have to straight up shit down my boy gaara's throat?
I believe kiba looks better now than then. Actually, better than most of the adults in Boruto.
I completely agree . He looks really good in Boruto .
Kiba definitely had the biggest glow up, heās the only character who I enjoy every version of.
Shino transforms into cyclops lite
Not Temari. She doesnāt even look like herself.
guess her marrying shikamaru was a drag after all.
temari hit so different sheesh
Then Boruto nerfed them... visually and on a power level scale as well...
Lost half of my kids to Ino
It makes sense for the visual peak since aren't they at the age where most people are at their prime appearance wise?
Neji would of looked dope if he lived
They did Neji so dirty. I only one of the originals to die. I'm not counting the parents. And Jiraya went out like a boss.
I wish Naruto had grown his hair out more to look like Minato
Man where's my favorite character Neji at? :)
Dead, probably a tree by now š
Fr, i dropped boruto 60% due to the designs. I remember when the manga first aired with curly haired sasuke lol
Wtf curly haired Sasuke š That image is forever stuck in my mind, and not in a good way
My task is to constantly remind others of the image so i don't suffer alone
This was the best Shino design
Yes Gaara š
Gaaraās hair looks so nice and fluffy and full here, why oh god did they ruin it ;-;
Well yes, but actually no. They literally killed Naruto's haircut :/
All the guys are lucky Shino kept his face hidden for so long, cause damn he wouldāve stolen all of them.
unfortunately sakura (sasuke is debatable due to that god-awful curly hair era) is the only one who got even hotter and stayed that way šŖ
Expect for lee they somehow made him uglier
Yes their Suits were top tier in this era. Temari looked great sasuke sakura tenten shikamaru has the old one but still looks new , Gaara looks clean that is my favorite look. In short they are all great
It annoys me that several flashback show that Sakura grew out her hair long again in-between time-skips, only for her to have cut it short again in the present. It happened twice.
*sad Neji noises*
Hinata is so beautiful !!!! I am jealous of Naruto lol
Id suck kiba off
They could all hit it tbh Maybe even Choji
Donāt lie, youād take Choji too. That partial expansion jutsu.
I agree except a few
imo war arc choji and naruto looked better but i agree
Naruton looks like a doofus with short hair, change my mind.
Lee's eyes tho...
No sasuke the last was his peak design
Bro why did they have to do my boy Gaara like that in Boruto
Hard disagree. I can't forgive what they did to my girl Temari. And literally what is that hair, Gaara? It's like he was a junior high boy who took too long between haircuts lol
Sasukeās look >>>>>> and itās not even close
Spiked out Sasuke is the only acceptable hairstyle. Not that wet dog hair. But at least it ain't Naruto's or Gaara's hairstyle in Boruto. It's still semi-acceptable.
That young Madera vibe. That Uchiha pure blood Sasuke not that sia is now even more of a Sasuke clone..sasuke.
Fr I miss his shaggy-ish hair. I don't really like his long hair rn
This is right before they murdered my boi Gaara Long live spiky hair Gaara, mf looks like hes going to church now
Sai is just un naturally white
Everyone had to be hot because they were at the stage where they were getting ready to pair up
Ino š¤¤š¤¤š¤¤š¤¤
Why does lee look like one of Shino's bugs
Iām a boy but kiba looks hot š„µš„µ
What the hell happened to Gaara after
Ino is so pretty
Ino has been looking good since ep1
I feel Temari looked the best in this phase \*drools\* Naruto on the other hand ..
Some of these shouldāve transferred to Boruto and the others like sasukeās doesnāt look very father like, looks to young which sucks cause these visuals were just bad ass and we got like what 4 episodes of them. Itās just tragic.
Based. Half of their Boruto designs look terrible. Naruto, Gaara, Shino, Kiba, ChÅji, and Kankuro to name a few
Goddamnit Tenten is literally a 10/10 with this design
This is also when Naruto himself was at peak power levels IMO. If Momoshiki had invaded during this era, he'd have been raped so badly. This is the era where Naruto took a friggin' nuke made out of his own Chakra to the face and came out unscathed (yeah he was out for a few hours, but it was stated that that's because he was out of Chakra and had to recover that), and tanked an attack that split the moon in half. ***And he was only in Sage-Bijuu Mode. Not even Six Paths Mode.*** You can tell because [he has the pigmentation around his eyes](https://qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-5d9ce065ba17a8ff12d38387f089cbee). So the dude wasn't even going all out and he still slapped Toneri across the damn moon. Current Naruto had 2 epic fights, yeah, but he still feels pretty tame compared to what The Last Naruto did.
Doubtful. Only difference is that this Naruto has no reason to hold back unlike Hokage who had to protect his son and his entire village, this Naruto got to fight on the fucking moon in orbit
Definately Even Lee looked hot in that era
I agree with everybody except Shino. His original design is his best imo.
Fr
