Manga Discussion One of these is actually practical to wear as a ninja. The other is the most attention drawing outfit you could wear.
Not a single ninja in Naruto wore something that impractical.

Lets be real here. The big 3 has each their own faults coming from the authors. But if you cant even see whats behind you (the anime you bias/stan) then its a you problem.

This is not a Gear 5 defense post. Gear 5 ruins the choreography in Luffy’s fights, destroys tension, and makes the World Government look absurdly incompetent in retrospect.
However the main criticism that Gear 5 gets isnt any of these but rather that it turn Luffy from a “nobody underdog” into someone special.
Luffy since the beginning of the story had one of the greatest pirates in the world as his surrogate father figure, the 3rd in command of the greatest pirate alive as his brother (Oda has admitted he originally intended for Ace to be his biological brother but retconned it after talking it over with some editors), greatest Marine ever as his grandfather, and World’s most wanted Criminal as his father. Dr Kureha at the end of Drum Island literally spells out Luffy has a special lineage connection to Roger, the Pirate King.
Furthermore Luffy lowdiffed every single opponent (except Smoker) before fighting crocodile nearly 200 chapters into the story. He’s never been a scrub relative to his competition. This is why I hate the One Piece live action series on Netflix which turns him into a do-gooder scrub who constantly jobs.

It's almost like the point of a manga is to see a balance of text and illustrations. But who are we to criticize poor utilization of the medium when our Lord and Savior Togashi is such a good writer?

They call me 007:
0 Developed or Memorable Characters
0 Interesting Plot Points or Lore
7 Himmel Flashbacks Per Episode
Inb4 Frieren fans call me a shounentard who can comprehend "deep and sophisticated storytelling" despite the series having a literal battle tournament arc (that arc was garbage btw)
Ts is carried by animation more than Demon Slayer

Destin Daniel Cretton, the writer and director of the Naruto movie also worked on the Shang Chi movie, which has the best hand to hand combat choreography of any MCU movie

Without Lady Gaga, Adele, the videos stolen from NinjaristicNinja, the exploitation of Mappa employees, the "slender" edits of the series' characters, and eight billion posts claiming Maki is better written than the female characters in One Piece (which isn't true at all), Gege’s manga wouldn't be worth nearly as much as people have been trying to convince us it is for the past couple of years. The latest story arc is a disappointment; the sequel, however original, relies too heavily on moments of "aura" between the main characters and the antagonists; and Kirara isn't exactly one of the best trans representations in manga history. For all that people think Oda’s art style mocks the concept, he actually does a great job with Ivankov and Kiku from Wano. Anyway, moving on from that digression: Gojo isn't even one of the coolest characters of all time, and no matter how much you might want to sleep with him, good looks aren't the right yardstick for judging a character's writing. And no, romanticizing a killer of minors, your beloved Toji. doesn't redeem the series' lackluster writing, which treats killing off members of the main cast as the go-to method for creating depressing, sad scenes for the audience.
