you're under my genjutsu, idiot.

Rock Lee vs. Gaara went SO hard and was so memorable, it unintentionally tricked an entire generation into thinking Naruto's underlying theme was that effort and hard work ultimately triumph over natural talent. Naruto was, in fact, not about that. It was the opposite, in fact.

For 20 years Rock Lee has been aura farming a fight he LOST and almost died in

I hope I’m not just an annoyance to you but also an object of your pathological psychosexual rage

bigs my eyes

just saw a death certificate from rural 1938 where the attending physician put “DON’T KNOW. NO DIAGNOSIS.” as the cause of death. bruh.

imagine cloth mother and wire mother in family court competing for custody of the baby monkey

I Have Softness For You

i have milk for you

Stop.

Cut the baby monkey in half

he's done this a few times now. the ball pit actively soothes him when he gets mad over puzzles. i could learn something from this

“the problems within the universe of Naruto can’t be blamed on any individual, it’s about generational trauma and the cycle of violence” FALSE most bad things can be traced back to tobirama easily

aside from his weird racism and bad decisions, the successors he trained and appointed were hiruzen and danzo, who sucked nonstop, hated each other, did a genocide, and are almost completely responsible for orochimaru AND itachi

Naruto’s so weird cause sometimes it’s like “the leadership of the hidden villages perpetuates and profits off of violence and conflict, creating a world in which people are systematically traumatized and treated like tools who are expected to be willing to kill their loved ones for the state” and sometimes it’s like “the ninja world has this abstract problem called ‘hatred’ that hopefully one day we’ll be able to solve when we all magically become friends and get along with each other ❤️. In order to get there we have to suppress all resistance to Konoha”
