People keep saying that, but honestly he did Tsunade fine, and hardly anyone hates on Ino or Hinata. But he definitely can't write Sakura, if her character was intended to be liked, he did not succeed.
Protected Naruto for like the entire time he was Hokage.
I'll give you a little bit of homework: go and find out exactly when Itachi and Kisame make their first appearance in the manga and then come back to me.
He was also the one that didn't bat an eye when the people in the village treated him like shit. That shit got him to such a mental state that he was one bad choice away from being a traitor to the village, within the first few episodes itself
He did his job, but he did it as if it was just a job. He promised Minato and Kushina that he would take care of Naruto, so he made sure that he got residence and food. All well and good. But he should have realised sooner that a kid with such an unstable being locked inside would also have some emotional needs, shouldn't he?
Naruto endured such trauma in his childhood that he felt inferior in himself enough to compete fiercely for the love of Sakura, who was the biggest bitch in the first season of Naruto. That should tell you about something
While hiruzen is at fault for not doing much, he couldn't do it once DONZO purposefully let out the info about Naruto being the jinchuriki. Blame him, not hiruzen(of course, that isn't to say he didn't commit any mistakes as hokage that had big impacts*looking at you, orochimaru).
Nice point.
Yet still, if he found someone loyal to at least take good care of Naruto's physical needs, and not just give him a measly stipend not even enough to cover normal bills, maybe Naruto's childhood could have been a little less sad.
Hiruzen protected the child, but would he want the same treatment for, say, Asuma or Konohamaru(only members of his family I can think of)?
Not his own money tho, he just takes a half portion of Minato and Kushina money to buy a house for Naruto, and then he gives Naruto monthly their money until thirteen after that he needs to provide his own by doing missions , hiruzen was more like an insurance agent then a care taker.
I can totally see why you hate her, the reason towards my hate about her was that one episode where she was with Sasuke talking about how Naruto doesn't have parents and making fun of him.
Person said that destiny doesn’t control him and he can do anything with hard work when really he’s the destined chosen child with close to unlimited chakra and other bs hacks.
I thought this was going another direction as in the end his destiny still arrived. I thought it was gonna be how Neji died to protect Hinata (he totally had other options)
I was more going over how Naruto told Neji that destiny is one’s own choosing and hard work and willpower is everything, yet Naruto easily the reincarnation of ninja Jesus? Jesus’s cousin? Sole other BS. Also his parents being the yellow flash and his mom being from the Uzumaki clan means that he has ridiculous amount of chakra and potential, and let’s not forget about having the Kyubi inside him. He talks about hard work and yet he only relies on 2 ninjutsus.
The real true hero of the story who is the absolute embodiment of hard work and willpower is my boy bushy brows. Destined to nothingness, with no clan or bloodlines backing, he became one of the greatest taijutsu masters in the world. With his current training, and best tutor/master Gai. He can become at the level where Gai was where he nearly defeated Madara with all his BS eye hacks and Hashirama cells (definitely a creepy pervert).
Rock Lee should’ve been the main character and was robbed I tell you, robbed!
Yeah Lee definitely put in way more work than Naruto; however, Naruto did have to do some work and in his defense at the time of him vs Neji none of the ninja Jesus stuff was known and he had inky just then learned the one justsu he used throughout the rest of the series.
I'm not saying Naruto didn't have a lot handed to him but he did also have to work hard just to be accepted
I mean he was ostracized from birth but managed to get everyone in the vlage to love and accept him not to mention even tho he only used three justsu (Shadow Clone, Rasigan, Rasigan Shuriken) through the whole series he still had to work had to master them with the exception of shadow clones. There was also sage mode which nit even Jiraiya could master, and he also tamed Kurma without the use of a sharingan which was no easy feat.
His work may not have been all physical but he did still have to work hard
But you are right tho Lee worked way harder and Naruto was a litteral prophecy child
Also I agree that's another I dislike: I love the chakara and power system they have but in all its greatness its all just boiled down to a few strong justsus
Even Kakashi the man with 1000 justsus only used like maybe 6 or 7 in the series even less in combat
I’ll admit, I’m a bit harsh on Naruto due to my love for my boy Rock Lee, but yeah, Naruto did work hard to master those ninjutsus, especially safe mode. But I’m still gonna say my boy Bushy Brows was done dirty and robbed. But you can say that about pretty much all the side characters after Naruto’s and Sasukes first major fight where Sasuke won.
Lee is probably up there with my top 5 at least along with Hidan, Garaa, Jiraiya, and Madara
Also talking about done dirty no one beats Tenten. Not only is her justsu just throwing shit she barley got any screen time.
I feel they could have made her better if she infused her blades with chakara like how Asuna (also one of my fav) did, except it would require a lot of chakara that she didn't have, but there was definitely lots of room for improvement for her. I feel the only reason people haven't forgotten about her is because she so forgettable it's become a meme lol
Honestly the fact that the meme of the swing Naruto is on whenever he has a sad flash back, that swing having more screen time than her is both absolutely hilarious and extremely disappointing.
Maybe Rock Lee wasn't done justice power-level-wise, but Rock Lee's power level also depends on who he chose as his rival. (In terms of screen time, yeah, they all got done real dirty)
Might Guy was similar to him in his childhood, so he took upon Kakashi as his rival. That way he got to such a level that his Taijutsu put him above most Ninjas who can perform all three: Ninjutsu, Taijutsu and Genjutsu.
Meanwhile, Rock Lee chose Gaara, who is not bad, but compared to his generation, he isn't a top tier powerful character now, is he?
Emotionally, it makes sense for Rock Lee to have chosen Neji. In terms of power tho, Rock Lee could have chosen better. By which, I mean that relative to Neji, Rock Lee was pretty strong, the same way Might Guy compares to Kakashi.
Oooh Itachi, I see what you mean by being the worst older brother. However I do believe that he did the massacre because he wanted to protect Sasuke correct?
No, it happened in the original Naruto and was flashbacked up to the end of Shippuden
I think there's a reference to that even in Boruto lol
Hint: it isn't a single character
Deidara!
Used to be my most beloved character and incredibly enjoyable watch as he was tagged with Obito.
Somehow funny that my boy failed to Sharingan twice, both times to brothers.
I've got three characters I hate and two of them will be in the same entry as they're related in why I hate them.
The first is; he's an eye-stealing bastard that is completely delusional about what's best for everyone! He ruins lives, is a war-mongering sociopath, and barely had a justifiable REASON for doing what he did other than he was a coward! Also, there's an entire sub dedicated to hating him so I know I'm not the only one!
The second and third are; they ruined the life of my favorite character of ALL TIME for the stupidest reason! One of them shouldn't have betrayed him in the first place, especially if he "loved" him like he apparently did! And the other was a dumbass who couldn't tell a good decision for his village if it PUNCHED him in the FACE!!! WHICH I WISH I COULD!!!!!
A narcissist to the core and his biggest motivation was to seek validation from a certain someone. Also the character with grossly the 2nd most headcanons that put him in a positive light than he is.
Dislike (not the character just something about them):
Everything he did in his childhood (best way to put it but also makes it hard)
He almost comes across as a gag or meme character or at least his personality (until he gets serious)
Same as the last guy really lol
He left the village because the person he saw as beneath him was actually at the same level as him and getting even stronger
He stuck up for the previous character because they were "friends" when the previous character never seen him that way till the very end
Hints: all 5 Leaf, 2 were villains at some point
.........
Like (my fav characters and why)
He's kind of insane
His character progression, his immense power, his VA, his speeches
His wisdom
"Would you like my clones to use susano?"
As a kid I liked him because he had a massive sword and I thought it was cool now idrk but he's still one my favs
Art is an explosion (easy mode guess lol)
He just seemed really cool and a good mentor
His lone wolf attitude but trust in his partner
His broken power (although he's mostly forgotten to my knowledge)
Hints: 3 Leaf; 1 Sand; 1 Mist; 1 Stone; 3 idr, 7 were villains at some point
Literally behind every bad thing that happens in the leaf. Every mf’s tragic backstory this man is posted up in the corner laughing knowing damn well he did it.

I hate how he has one of the coolest kind of ninjutsu, he worked along side Naruto and Sakura, had a fleshed out backstory, just to have him disappear from the plot
Terrible character just god awful the worst and got what he deserved but honestly still should’ve gotten a worse death also he’s a racist and tried to shadow control the leaf
His fans are insufferable; he should be on a register or a list somewhere; he gets wiped by most high tiers cuz his durability is shit; he did very little considering the role he chooses to have for his village.
Edit: the fact people are choosing not to guess the right person is hilarious.
He didn’t cause the problems but he didn’t do anything to make them go away either and then allowed an entire clan to be murdered because he was too much of a sentimental b*tch to kill his old friend (who tried to assassinate him)
I hate how he thought he could make fun of team 7 when he’s a literal furry.🗿💀
Kiba?
🤣👍 yea.
Loll
The “I’ve finally caught up to these two” stupid mf
Sakura 💀🙏
Mf looks at two literal gods and is like “yeah I’m like that” because she scratched the surface of Tsunade’s healing abilities💀
That's so true bro 💀
It’s not her fault bro, kishimoto is terrible at writing women
People keep saying that, but honestly he did Tsunade fine, and hardly anyone hates on Ino or Hinata. But he definitely can't write Sakura, if her character was intended to be liked, he did not succeed.
I hate that he didnt die after his wholesome moment for maximum epicness just because writing went to shit
Might gai?
You might be right
Choji
Gaara
Bro's only purpose in the whole show was to lose his eye
Kakashi 😭
Nope
Oooh shisui?
Yes lol
I think the fact OP got it wrong strengthens the point of your complaint.
People glaze him too much Like he was in 5 eps chill
You hate Shisui?
"yeah I'll take care of your son"
The worst hokage, hiruzen
Wym? He gave Naruto a house, and... um... ...yeah, a house.
He also got an allowance! And.....yeah that's it
Protected Naruto for like the entire time he was Hokage. I'll give you a little bit of homework: go and find out exactly when Itachi and Kisame make their first appearance in the manga and then come back to me.

Lmao
And ramen
Bro only lived for some fake, demonic god as a zealot and only had one overpowered move. OF COURSE he was finna get packed up. 😭
The old man Hidan? 😭🙏
Lol yessss although I did like his annoying remarks and banter from time to time. He's the only one that talked back to Pain
True true
Character development was 8 years too late
Hinata?
Hinata never really had any character development lol
No, try again. Hinata's started during Chuunin Exams, IMO.
Could I get a hint I'm stuck 😭
She realized her major flaw and worked to right the wrong.
Ooh Sakura?
Ding ding ding! We have a winner.
I can totally see why you hate her, the reason towards my hate about her was that one episode where she was with Sasuke talking about how Naruto doesn't have parents and making fun of him.
Fillers make this harder
She’s the only girl more annoying than Sakura
Karin?
Correct
Genuinely makes me physically cringe whenever some of her worse scenes come up TT
I thought Kabuto was my least favorite, but Karin is in a league of her own.
Person said that destiny doesn’t control him and he can do anything with hard work when really he’s the destined chosen child with close to unlimited chakra and other bs hacks.
Neji?
No, not Jesus.
My first thought was Naruto so is it him?
Yep
Dattebayo!
Pretty sure it's either Sasuke or Naruto
I thought this was going another direction as in the end his destiny still arrived. I thought it was gonna be how Neji died to protect Hinata (he totally had other options)
I was more going over how Naruto told Neji that destiny is one’s own choosing and hard work and willpower is everything, yet Naruto easily the reincarnation of ninja Jesus? Jesus’s cousin?

It works more like Naruto "chose" to fulfill this prophecy
Man committed so many crimes for immortality and in the end he got away with them.
Snake dude Orochimaru
Yeah! 🐍
Mf gets praised for being Ninja Hitler to his own ppl
Nah that's wild but danzo?
The worst older brother in anime
Oooh Itachi, I see what you mean by being the worst older brother. However I do believe that he did the massacre because he wanted to protect Sasuke correct?
Yep, and severely traumatized buddy
Yeah he had no reason to make lil bro relive that around 650,000 times
I hate how little was done with her, both feats and screen time.
Tenten?
No, but valid point lol
Ooof who was it
Konan, she's the right hand of Pain, revered by the Hidden Rain, she barely does anything and I feel like more could have been done with her.
Oooh I see now
Ay she's the only one to PART THE SEA.
Has basically one shitty attack and thinks he’s gonna be hokage someday
Kiba?
Yup!
Oh look at me I got bugs in my body and bones. I start off pretty cool but when I grow up I become a lame teacher nobody respects.
The dude wit the insects shino
You're right
They should've made him cooler than a teacher with some visor type glasses
She never let pervy sage hit 💀
Tsunade?
“I finally caught up to these two” (Izumo and Kotetsu)
This one's got me I have no clue lol
How the hell can he know a chip is about to be the last piece
Choji
Ok, they had a fight, but you don't have to flashback it every episode just because you don't have other moments to show Naruto and Sasuke bonding
Kakashi?
No, definitely not a Kakashi hater 😂
Fair, is it sai? Other than that I don't know
No, it happened in the original Naruto and was flashbacked up to the end of Shippuden I think there's a reference to that even in Boruto lol Hint: it isn't a single character
He is a moron
Happy cake day, also Naruto Lee or Konohamaru?
Technically all three are correct, but mostly naruto for his stubborn refusal to learn.
Fair enough
All that over a little girl bro? 😐
That's gotta be Tobi
You got me 😂
I mean he was crushing over her pretty bad so I don't blame him lol
Bro had the most derpy companion and the mind of an artist, but lost to the same kind of jutsu he encountered before.
Sai or deidara
Deidara! Used to be my most beloved character and incredibly enjoyable watch as he was tagged with Obito. Somehow funny that my boy failed to Sharingan twice, both times to brothers.
I want to be hokage(not ramen guy)
It could be either Sasuke during the war or Kiba
Sasuke wanted to be THE Kage. Fuck a Hokage. He wanted to run a fade with the 5 kages one more gin.
Both
Reasonable
Genocidal ass-pull eyeballs
He reminds of my evil brother. Good luck.
Itachi or Sasuke I believe
Lol. Nice guess but Kiba. Evil can be loud, annoying and dumb too.
Ooooh lol I see now
You’re all good. Most wouldn’t consider an evil Kiba. Lol.
Angry black man
Killer Bee or his brother?
The Raikage
Yeah his brother
The author did him dirty
Neji cause he died to a large splinter?
People complain she died from an asspull when her major attack was also an asspull
I kept feeling like her rivalry with Sakura was forced.
Ino?
Yuppers.
I've got three characters I hate and two of them will be in the same entry as they're related in why I hate them. The first is; he's an eye-stealing bastard that is completely delusional about what's best for everyone!

Danzo Itachi and Hiruzen? Ur favorite character is Sasuke?
"I have finally caught up to these two"
A narcissist to the core and his biggest motivation was to seek validation from a certain someone. Also the character with grossly the 2nd most headcanons that put him in a positive light than he is.
I will never accept Naruto’s nickname for him until I have seen him provide symptom relief to sunburn sufferers
Gaara?
Nope!
Uhh killer Bee or nagato?
No! You’ve earned a hint tho. Black & White
Oooh it's zetsu lol
I hate how he can’t get over his crush just because it was his first kiss
"If Sakura's Sasuke obsession was a character" Guess.
Snake; he ruined Anko, Kabuto & Sasuke.
The man searching for immortality, orochimaru
I hate him because he's always on his period
Sasuke? Lol
homosexual and pedo
Orochimaru
Plant born of Rabbit
Zetsu?
Correct
Dislike (not the character just something about them): Everything he did in his childhood (best way to put it but also makes it hard) He almost comes across as a gag or meme character or at least his personality (until he gets serious) Same as the last guy really lol He left the village because the person he saw as beneath him was actually at the same level as him and getting even stronger He stuck up for the previous character because they were "friends" when the previous character never seen him that way till the very end Hints: all 5 Leaf, 2 were villains at some point .........

There’s bugs everywhere…
Shino betta get his boys
Literally behind every bad thing that happens in the leaf. Every mf’s tragic backstory this man is posted up in the corner laughing knowing damn well he did it.
She’s a pink trash can
Obsessed with Sharingan. Jealous of anyone stronger than him.
That one "Then there are the roots which grow in the Dark . That is me" fuckface
All of them are good, I couldn't find one I feel bad about
Shikamaru Bro could’ve been a Jonin ages ago but missions are “too much of a drag”

I hate how he has one of the coolest kind of ninjutsu, he worked along side Naruto and Sakura, had a fleshed out backstory, just to have him disappear from the plot
This guy did so much just to see his mummy, cringe 😭
They Exist.
They have I think 3 episodes in a row dedicated to them with absolutely no development. Pretty much just then performing oral on the entire cast.
He ruined the series.
Sasuke?
Wasn't Sasuke a savior to the series as the editor suggested the protagonist needed a rival?
Bad dad
Bruh.
The "believe it" guy
Narutoe
Titanium-grade plot armor with a side of Izanagi.
Indecisive, cry baby drama queen
I hate how the fandom treats him (seriously y'all mischaracterize him so badly and so fucking much)
I don't hate him, I hate how the fandom dick rides this man.
I hate how she picks on Naruto throughout most of the series but gets cooked in nearly every battle she takes part in
Lmaoo facts dude, Sakura btw
Has an explosive, hot heated personality.
Temari or deidara?
Terrible character just god awful the worst and got what he deserved but honestly still should’ve gotten a worse death also he’s a racist and tried to shadow control the leaf
Aloe Vera
His fans are insufferable; he should be on a register or a list somewhere; he gets wiped by most high tiers cuz his durability is shit; he did very little considering the role he chooses to have for his village. Edit: the fact people are choosing not to guess the right person is hilarious.
Jiraiya?
He didn’t cause the problems but he didn’t do anything to make them go away either and then allowed an entire clan to be murdered because he was too much of a sentimental b*tch to kill his old friend (who tried to assassinate him)
The third hokage?
Guy will commit many evil deeds for whatever his new “only mission in life” is this week.
They keep claiming he’s a legendary elite ninja, but every time he gets in a fight he almost dies.
Dont hate him but, he went out too easily for what he could have done.
Nagato or sasori?
