You realize that there's a possibility of Itachi being romantically involved with not a woman, but with Shisui.

This whole plot twist is pretty dumb and has ruined four years worth of chapters. Way to go Kishimoto, you're gonna have to work hard to get out of this one. Even if I do feel like Itachi has some how become a slightly better character it has still ruined everything that's been established since like... mid-way of Part I.

Itachi in Part I: "I am an emotionless killer who doesn't even move, and I killed my entire clan for the lulz, but let my faggy brother live. I am Naruto's second best villian"
Itachi in Part II: "OH HEI GEIZ, I WAS JUST PLAYIN' 'ROUND, MY REAL MISSION IS THAT I'M AN EPIC HERO, AND I'M ACTUALLY A GOOD GUY." Ruined.

I'm sorry you have to complain about Kishimoto being too linear, and then turn around and bash him for pulling something unexpected out of his hat. I'm sorry you have to complain about Itachi being a boring character with no emotion, and then turn around and bash him because of his emotions once you realize he has them. I'm sorry that this series isn't good enough for you, no matter how excellent Kishimoto makes it. ... No. Get out of this thread, off of these forums, and off of my intarwebz. Itachi is a flawless character, Naruto is a great series, Kishimoto wins, you lose, everyone else agrees, don't bother them about it.

Naruto would've been a great series... if it had stayed to missions and had plenty of variety offered in each one. Kishimoto has ruined his own creation, the thing he'll most likely be known most for.
"Hey guys, you know Kishimoto?" "Yeah, that one guy who ruined his own manga?" "Yeah, lol, what a dumb ass."

They needed to break away from that shit, and enter the world of ninja criminal syndication. Akatsuki for the win, motherfucker.

Yes, Nikushimi, because we all know the strength of a character is vital to the plotline and pretty much determines whether the story will be weak and brittle or incredibly strong and flexible.

Essentially, Sasuke didn't have to overcome his problems. Oh no, circumstance took care of that for him. Sasuke's entire personality was based on events that never transpired, and thereby everything that took place as a result of his identity. Kishimito put a lot of work into establishing themes in different characters individual responses to circumstance, yet the circumstances behind characters of greatest importance to the series were just big misdirections. It feels empty now. The tension in Naruto and Sasuke's conflict doesn't reach a boiling point, it gets stretched thin and fizzles out. AND HUNDREDS OF CHAPTERS WERE DEVOTED TO THAT FIZZLE. It literally dissolved in conversation.
