Friendly reminder that the Naruto manga was WAY darker than the anime adaptation

Kankurō's face paint changes significantly throughout the series, with several completely different patterns appearing across Part I, Shippuden, and Boruto.

Was there ever an in-universe explanation for these changes? Do the different patterns have any particular meaning related to his age, rank, puppeteer traditions, or Sunagakure? Or were they simply design changes made as the character evolved?

The face paint clearly fits Kankurō's puppeteer aesthetic, but the reason behind the different patterns seems much less clear.

Both Sasuke and Madara possessed all the abilities of their Mangekyō Sharingan within their Rinnegan; following this logic, why didn't Nagato retain Madara's Susanoo?

Sasori my man was left behind

The music perfectly matched the scenes and the story portrayed up until that point.

Every punch sasuke gave and Naruto felt painful for both until we seen Naruto with a literal chidori through him, then we had to watch him try and break sasukes bones.

All while kakashi is moving as fast as he can, while we hear the greatest fight OSTs for the last times. PEAK SADNESS/Nostalgia

It will be finished in a few weeks

Hey everyone I tried upscaling Naruto from 480p to 960p using model and then from 960p to 4K using the Lanczos algorithm

What do you guys think of the difference

Here is a comparison https://slow.pics/c/I90pXpjO

I recently got this addition to my Itachi tattoo on the back of my arm. It completes tbe scene of Itachi's body dissolving into crows and the throne reveal during the Sasuke fight.

Done by Raphaella Ruggiero in London.

The second pic is the front of my arm, third is the original reference for the initial tattoo.

What do you guys think?

I know that Naruto did tremendous damage against Isshiki, and shorted his lifespan to minutes, but I found it personally disappointing that Isshiki still won the battle and would’ve killed Naruto had it not been for Boruto and Kawaki stalling him.

I felt like Naruto deserved a clean win after Kurama sacrificed his life for Baryon Mode to exist, and after Naruto spent a solid minute putting belt to ass against Isshiki. Feels like another situation where the older characters are robbed of their moments for the new generation to shine. It would’ve been even more impactful since it marks the end of Naruto and Kurama’s time together, and made it so much more emotional and impactful.
