What appeals more to you? (A) or (B)
Hello,
I just want some quick opinions on something. One of the things that draws me to the Naruto anime/manga, one of its "Allures" is the whole concept of villages fighting each other, clans fighting each other. And so I wanna see what people think would be a better approach for the storyline. a) The way it is currently. Following the lives and tribulations of a few choice people. I.E sasuke and Naruto. Everything else is backstory and padding to propell the main story of the characters along. or b) A war-like setting. I.E Non of the villages are at peace. Its a great big ninja war like back in the sannin days. Alliances between villages and clans etc are formed. We get the side stories of characters like naruto and sasuke as they grow But the main "plot" is the politics of the Ninja war and how Konoha uses its Shinobi to protect itself. Perhaps Naruto's dream is not to become hokage but to bring peace to the villages. Im not sure if im making any sense here but I hope you gather some of what im saying. Would the Naruto anime be more entertaining if it was "Naruto- The story of the boy who had a monster sealed in him and wanted to become Hokage. " or if it was "Naruto- The story of a young boy who grows up in a wartorn land, and how he and his comrades brought victory to konoha" The chuunin exam was intruging because we got glimpses of the other village shinobi. A war setting would allow for entire arcs to be based on various missions to other lands. ETC. Its 5:00 AM and im tired (night shift sucks). So bear with me if i sound like a blubbering idiot. |

I watched anime for ages but was never really one to go a read news so i didn't know about all the popular anime... so i was going through a popular emule download site, and went to their anime section and clicked on "Naruto".
I saw "ninja school" and laughed and gave it a download... hooked from there on. |

Its probably going to be a mix of both. It will be focused on Naruto of course, however there will be a war soon as well. Oro already stated that it was his goal to do so.
A war will also be a perfect way to introduce the other villages that we havnt seen, and see new abilites from new allies, as well as abilities from new villians. Really it would get boring if it were to be just konoha vs sound. Lets see some earth jutsus! |

However the mood of the story would be very different. They would always be running missions, always protecting against attacks, always making alliances, getting backstabbed, etc etc. Wed get a to see a lot more cool stuff like Jounin only Missions etc |

By that same vein of thought someone could suggest we follow the ramen girl for a new take on the story and naruto would still be there, but it wouldn't be naruto (the series). |
