Naruto Manga: Getting Boring and Boring Over Time

Hmmm....

The latest chapters of Naruto in Manga, the eradication of Konoha by Pein's (or Pain, both spellings are used in the Manga) wrath, make me annoyed because Naruto is being so high-lighted and strengthened over the other characters even though it's impossible for his present state.

Come to think of it. The ninjas of the Konoha, with the high-class ninjas like Kakashi and the Fathers of Choji and Ino, were almost killed by just one or two Peins, but the weak Naruto, who just got tired by his endless pissing trainings, just thwacked one of the Peins and it just died in a sudden. Also, he defeated Pein's summoned minions effortlessly that even high-ranked ninjas couldn't.

It's so unfair in the part of the other supporting characters because we know that all of them are just almost equal in strength and techniques, they only differ in their fighting styles.

Masashi Kishimoto, the author of Naruto, must also develop the other characters because Uzumaki Naruto isn't the only one the viewers/watchers want to see in action but also other characters like Hyuuga Hinata, Aburame Shino, Yamanaka Ino, Senju Tsunade, and many more. They must expose each of the characters equally to know their capabilities more together with their improvements.

I'm very disappointed with this issue that's why I now watch Bleach, another fictional Japanese anime and comics, because the Manga and the anime make us know all of the primary and supporting characters of Bleach by showing the us how they fight in a combat exposing them long enough, their life backgrounds, and their personalities and characteristics.

The stuffs like "You are the chosen one", "You are the prodigal one", or other lines like that, which makes the main protagonist very special than the rest, are so oldish and give the viewers no excitement at all.

Actually, I like Naruto because of its concept - a fictional world with consistency in story and twists, the style of setting which is so traditional, the moral, and most of all, the story flow. It's just that, I've got irritated by so much, "Uzumaki Naruto is the only one who can save us", lines. It's so childish.

All of the characters must be given importance and significant roles so that the fans must not only hail and idolize one character that might bore them as time passes by and forces them to not anymore continue anticipate the series.

i agree with you naruto is getting boring!
i mean the story in first place is good but this manga has one big deficit. there is no deep in the storyline. they are creating every second chapter a new oponent, a new technique, or some ridiculously twists and turns.
i think kishimoto should give the protagonists more soul and life they are all acting so factitiously and flat. and a storyline who is more building up on the previous chapters
thats my wish
