You are given a time-machine and a one-time-use device to brainwash Kishimoto

>a seinen about a professional ninja assasin who has to deal with his job and a group of retarded teenage students
>kakashi is mc
count me in

This. It's my headcanon that Kakashi's eternally bored expression was because he was aware of how retarded literally everyone else in the universe was.

...

add anko as an occasional partner in some missions and im sold

No. Fucking. Eye. Bullshit.

He gets three arcs and also is a better writer.

I never realized until now what a fucking amazing plot they were sitting on.

I convince him to go with his story about the Mafia instead of ninjas. Of course, I'll try to convince him to name his protagonist something other than "Mario", because nowadays, you can only get away with that name if you're a mushroom-chomping plumber from Brooklyn.

Cut the series short by about 300 chapters. Shorten the cast by 70% and remove the Uchiha.

I tell him not to make Naruto in the first place.

>listening to Sasgay whine about MUH REVENGE
>right after an arc where he gutted someone who ruined his life for revenge
>can't actually talk about that

no, sasgay would be the edgy teenager who tries to be cool, and fails

so... no difference whatsoever?

>Hard mode: failed

Wouldn't change a thing.

he never creates kaguya or makes naruto and sasuke magic jesus incarnations of the ninja god's sons.

everyone has talked about the actual problem

>Actually kill off sasuke in the fight against zabuza, don't let your editors tell you he's too popular

That's it. Literally everything that people truly hate about naruto can be traced back to this one single moment.

Make it about assassins and not about superpower battles.
The characters are not good guys, just paid killers AKA ninjas.
FYI wearing an orange jumpsuit and being a loudmouth who declares his ninja status aloud probably promises a short career.
Oh, and they should all hate samurai.

Easy, mate.

Just pare down everything related to the Uchiha.

Naruto and Sasuke's final bosses, respectively, are Pain, Itachi, and then each other. Any eye-based powers have clearly defined powersets and limitations.

If you absolutely have to have the retarded "World War V" plotline, then delete Kaguya entirely and just have the final boss be the Sage of the Six Paths himself, and not have the Uchiha be related to him.

Basically, have the only remotely relevant Uchiha be Sasuke and Itachi, and stop the Sharingan wank in its infancy.

They make missions something worth the fucking time. Zabuza's mission was amazing because it felt like an average mission that was still hard to make.
>Have Team 7 go into another mission after Zabuza, maybe a couple of missions
>Chunin Exam arc completely the same but without a huge invasion
>in fact just delete Orochimaru from the script and make Gaara the villain of the arc
>Give each team an arc of 6 episodes more or less, no team 7 joining or anything
>Some special missions with only jounins
>Some special missions with only chunins
>Make some missions with an opposing force consisted of another village's ninjas
>Make political tension
>More variety in techniques
>Make every character useful in some way (specially Sakura and all those token girls)

Codey pls

kakashi stays as hokage.
shikamaru is the leader of the army and not his father.
give sakura the chakra gates and make her not fucking suck.

Have Team 7 take a couple of actual C-rank missions between the Zabuza clusterfuck and the Chuunin exams. Things where the enemies will end up being bandits, normal soldiers, pissed off wildlife, or minor spirits to add some more folklorey stuff to it.

It'd give a chance to show some of the less glamorous bits of ninja life, like killing off bandits that might as well be moving in slow motion to a ninja. Even Sakura at her most pathetic Genin state could kill one on reflex.

Naruto could shore up his horrendous fundamentals, actually know more than two techniques, and learn waterwalking at a vaguely sane time. Sakura could learn some Genjutsu and be less useless until timeskip, Sasuke could start working that stick out of his ass and picked up eye-bullshit stuff at a reasonable pace from Kakashi. And now they have the time to form actual bonds,

Give Tenten the 8 gates so she, Guy, and Lee can triple team Madara to avenge Neji.

Main characters are shikamaru, choji, and ino with the fights being about their teamwork and combos.

ITT: Assmad narusakufags

inochikacho actually sounds nice for an anime name

you´re the very first faggot to say something about shipping

True. But now that we're on the subject, Kaks and Anko were canonically fucking, right?

Make Sharingan be an advantage, not a super hax (like pretime skip). No fucking Susano plot armor bullshit. Sasuke actually capitalizes on his ability to copy shit like he sort of did pretime skip. One of his major power ups could have been from him copying the Raikage's super lightning speed. Have him focus on ninjutsu overall.

Make Naruto a Taijutsu specialist since he can FUCKING REGENERATE AT HIGH SPEEDS which would literally be perfect for building muscle. Works great with clones. Major training arc would be him developing his own fighting style/martial art with Kakashi giving pointers. Also make him be a Jutsu inventor, because he thinks out of the box and uses unorthodox methods.

Make Sakura useful by playing to her fucking strengths. She's apparently a genjutsu type, so let her use some fucking genjutsus. And not super genjutsu, normal fucking genjutsu where you change minor shit to get the drop on the foe. Since she will never be able to keep up power wise with Naruto and Sasuke, let her compensate with her natural book smarts. Like, she was able to fucking come up with an antidote for Sasori's super poison, so why the fuck can't she fucking reverse engineer that shit and coat all her kunai with super poison? Maybe have her also specialize in traps and shit. Basically she makes up her lack of power with wit.

Have Hiashi die in place of Neji. Like, Neji still jumps in front of Hinata, but then Hiashi jumps in front of Neji and takes the hit. This is way, way better story writing wise because it shows how much Naruto's influence has affected people, since a fucking main house member sacrificed himself for a lowly branch member.

If Gai has to go 8 gates, he dies. Turning to ash, nice guy pose, blown away in the wind. You know the post I'm talking about.

Final battle should be all the young teams facing off against the final boss. Team 7 should be the ones with enough force to finish the bad guy, but they need the back up of the other teams to pull it off

Naruto? Sasuke? Yeah, make them not be those guys. Fucking deviantart OC horseshit, sealed up overpowered animal spirits and edgefucks completely void of character. None of that.

Alright. First order of business, fox spirit aside. Naruto is no longer going to be an obnoxious shithead with an attention deficit disorder. He is now a well-mannered totalitarian professional Go player. He can shoot the shit with Shiki sometimes, give that asshole something to do. He's also a complete asshole after he gits Hokage'd. Everyone hates him even more. Sexy jutsu tho, all is forgiven. NEXT

Right, now addressing Sasuke's lack of personality, or rather it just being "i'm angsty". He's a walking tree now. That's it. I don't give a fuck.

hmm, i can see it, but just for fun, not romantically, just fuck buddies

>delete based Oro
Fuck you buddy

Oro should be the final fucking boss, not side character led off by faggot ass akatsuki

Switch Sakura and Hinata. It's almost too obvious that they got swapped at some point pre-series and Hinata was supposed to be main girl. Sakura's hyped as being a genjutsu type early on, but she's not on the genjustu team, while Hinata is making medicines and shit but doesn't become the medic?
Have Kakashi actually teach them shit.
Make use of that whole shadow clone training thing from day one.
Nerf the sharingan. It turned into complete bullshit.

I would watch the fuck out of this.

...

Canonically I don't think they ever actually talk to each other. In fact the only time I know for sure they're in the same room is the Chunin prelims.

>Get Naruto and Sasuke to an actual therapist to work out their issues.

Congratulations. Naruto is cancelled five years earlier.

Also, make Anko a main character on the level of Kakashi.

nope. I don't even remember if they talked to each other, did they?

>using a time machine to save some shitty japanese cartoon
would just kill whoever gave it to me and use it for things actually worthwhile like helping hitler kill all jews

>Get Naruto and Sasuke to an actual therapist to work out their issues.

Why do Americans keep thinking that having a therapist instantly means you're cured of your trauma?

inb4 go away scientology

but hitler did nothing wrong, user, why would i change that?

...

>I honestly thought Naruto getting or training with Guy and Rock Lee would make his hand to hand combat go well with his clones.
Read the novels. It's why Naruto barely even fights with clones in The Last and Boruto movie. He does sharpen his taijutsu.
>Or even if he learned his dad's teleporting with shurikens would have been dope with clones.
Why use that when he has Kurama's teleportation?
>Or even learning more wind techniques kinda like Danzo.
He can make a Hurricane if I remember correctly. In fact, after getting all of the Tailed Beasts chakra, he has all chakra affinities and uses some different elements (not Rasengan related) against Kaguya
>Literally anything added onto his techniques instead of just rasengan i win.
Read the novels.

>One of his major power ups could have been from him copying the Raikage's super lightning speed.
See the Boruto movie
>Make Naruto a Taijutsu specialist
See the Last and Boruto movie
>why the fuck can't she fucking reverse engineer that shit and coat all her kunai with super poison?
See the Team Seven Reunited Episode/Chapter (Kage Summit Arc)

Go with that one original idea of it just being Naruto and his teacher where Hinata was just some princess somewhere.
If not that, make the focus more on teamwork rather than power levels and giving the others his age some actual development.
And don't make the fucking change to digital during the time skip, the old art was messy but had character.

>implying Kakashi was not fucking every female in Leaf Village

Maintain the early series emphasis on tactical combat over power level bullshit.

When I was much younger Naruto was a breath of fresh air after the Shonen of the 90s until suddenly it was just as power level / asspull driven as they were.

Two different animes aired simultaneously, one from Naruto's perspective and one from Sasuke's

Sasuke has a better written persona rather than "burn it all down hehe". Make him vengeful to Konoha, but only to some particular people as he goes around trying to eliminate them.

no idea i think it ended ok

Leave Cred Forums and never come back.

...

>obito doesn't stupidy turn evil after his death, but loses his memory and becomes a super assassin for some other village
>he and kakashi fight and obito regains his memories
>they start to work together again
>some villain kidnaps the team 7 kids and forces kakashi to chose between them and obito
>obito sacrifices himself again to save innocent people

i know it's super cliche but damnit i'd watch it anyway

Holy fuck! Thank you for reminding me about best Naruto girl.

This, to be honest.

a lot went wrong even before that, user

A nation of pirates that are drawn in suspiciously One Piece style invade.

The world finally gets to see what happens when pirates with superpowers fight ninjas with superpowers.

Naruto was pretty good actually.
Just switch naruto by lee.

>Maintain the early series emphasis on tactical combat
I hate this stupid meme.

the most obvious solution is to genderbend sasuke

THIS

I would waifu the shit outta that.

make them relevant again

...

the Uchiha Satsuki fanfic is pretty gud tbqh

perhaps making Naruto protect her from Haku's ice -> activating Satsuki's Mangekyo Sharingan early is better.

Sakura dies of AIDS as a child and Hinata joins team 7 instead

Naruto would work way better as a girl.

Sasuke never leaves the village. Naruto and Sasuke remain bros and team up to fight the increasing threats against Konoha with their peers. That is literally all.

This.

Give Naruto and Sasuke the happy ending they truly wanted instead of having to hide in the shadows and meet in private locations.

Damn it Naruto...why can't I quit you?

Madara wins.

...

Make best girl win and also give her more screen time and depth.

I don't see Anko in that picture.

Sakura, the character who got uglier the older she got.

I truly do wish sakura wasn't such a trash character
I actually like her design

>yfw the anime finally finishes where the manga ends on the 700 and final chapter this Thursday

It's almost over boys, we're so close to the end of Naruto. After the 29th the manga and anime will have both finished all canon events correlated.

No one gives a shit about the novels to lead into the spin-off. More techniques would have made the show and main mange more interesting. That's like saying "Read the EU" to the question of "Why was Anakin such a whiny bitch?"

Sakura is best teen, Mei is best cake and Kaguya best MILF. Anko is a cute cake but too edgy for my tastes.
Pedo please go, the older a woman gets the better she gets.
That's why i would have given her more depth and screen time.

>he doesn't know about Boruto

>implying Boruto is centric to Shippuden ending or Naruto PTS.

Boruto does exist, however, it will never be on the magnitude that Naruto existed.

name that character or plot hook with wasted potential
for a series so deadset on family and friends it bothers me that the fact that naruto and karin are cousins means jack fucking squat even into the boruto shit

Considering a young character cute does not mean I want to fuck them.
Of course, someone with garbage taste would get that confused.

This is my fetish.

The boruto movie was already better than anything naruto related in the past 7 years.

Naruto vs Sasuke doesn't even end this week. There's another episode next week to wrap up the fight then the anime starts adapting some of the light novels. Don't expect chapter 700 to be adapted anytime soon.

I'm just saying they're there, user. Not present in the anime/manga, but it happens.

this is now the Rock Lee and Ten Ten show

Reminder that there will be a new series (not Boruto) after Shippuden's final episode(s) this week. It's probably be about the novels, which are pretty long.
The ED is called the departure (on a new journey)

literally who

This. If Madara won then everyone wold be in their own little world's where everything is perfect. Much better than the child soldier using corrupt shit hole of a world they live in.

Het rid of the tailed beast bullshit.

1. Keep the fights like they were in part 1.

2. Make a better character design for timskip Naruto. The jumpsuit is so shit compared to his part 1 design.

3. Don't change the entire fucking theme and message of the story.

4.Have the series be more about politics and corruption. Have Naruto and other characters question the ninja system and if it should exist.

5. Keep the character designs like they were in part 1 where everyone looked like normal humans. None of that stupid shit like Zetsu.

>2009

The only rule that mods enforce nowadays is "No Keit-ai".

>4.Have the series be more about politics and corruption. Have Naruto and other characters question the ninja system and if it should exist.
>Naruto cancelled after timeskip! Boring talks about politics reminiscent of the bad odd-numbered Star Trek movies or GitS Arise.
>muh part 1
>muh lack of creativity save for me crying about part 1

You sound like a Star Wars fanboy.

One more thing.

Have more real world problems like that gangster guy during Zabuza arc. Its crazy how the series went from that to wizards fighting alien gods. More things about the normal non-ninja people in the world in general.

>Its crazy how the series went from that to wizards fighting alien gods

You do realize that Naruto was originally going to be a Harry Potter anime rip-off before it became ninja themed, right?

Rock Lee should get a summon.

In his case he gets vampire bats. The contract to summon the various bats requires that you give Chakra to them every few weeks. Since Rock Lee is a special case that Chakra drain attacks has no effect on his mental and physical performance (no Chakra to drain).

I dunno he also trains with them on his spare time to learn some funky taijutsu.

> wizards fighting alien gods.
Didn't ninjas in fiction have super natural powers?
And the alien gods are based on legends.

Don't know why people act like they didn't see this shit coming. It was as obvious as Tobi being Obito.

stfu, those novels are shit and you know it. the whole 4th ninja war is shit. Madara was the only thing good about it and even he got fucked over

Wouldn't Rock Lee learning genjutsu and using chakra defeat the purpose of his whole character?

...

He doesn't use Chakra. To summon the bats he has to let them drain Chakra from him from time to time.

People expected a settling of the Madara plotline and some drastic shit due to the Ten Tails.
Not a bunny alien "goddess" who settled on Earth, ate fruit from a forbidden tree that wasn't hinted at previously which gave her chakra, became part of the Ten Tails and hijacked the plot for a relatively easy final boss because Madara was too overpowered.

Have Chunin Exam never happen.

Go write about it in your shitty fanfiction with 5 reviews on Fanfiction.net.

Have the whole thing told in by a hokage Naruto and pals to a group of young ninja, as sort of reminiscing or retelling of old stories. The kids can make fun of Naruto for being stupid all the time, and we get to see the wonder in their eyes when they hear about some the feats people attempted. Other ninja sometimes stop buy during the stories and bring up a certain tale the two of they may have shared as well, so the stories aren't always told from just one person's view.
In between stories we it focuses on more slice of life stuff with the grown up ninjas and their kids.

I'll make him not teach Sasuke Chidori so that he'd lose to Naruto's rasengan and never be allowed to go even bigger edge.

Kakashi marries some hot piece of ass and gets her pregnant.

That is my only change if I could get only one. Who the fuck was left as single female characters in Naruto anyways, Kakashi could've tapped?

>Kakashi is fucking every girl in the Leaf Village
does this he is the father of Himawari, Sarada, and Inojin?

Anko and Shizune AFAIK

Also the purple-haired ANBU that was that one guy's waifu before Gaara pulped him.

Make it a 52 episode series, long shows tend to be inherently bad

convince him to make Naruto a seinen rather than shounen

that's literally it. Kishimoto was restricted from the start and the fame of kiddie cash restricted him even more after it influenced how he needed to direct the flow of the story. kiddie cash = plot will ALWAYS expand unnecessarily and ruin any promising build-up prior to its success

Anko, Shizune, Tsunade, Anbu Girl, Ramen Girl (Who liked Kakashi), Mei, Samius, Naruto's daughter, and this all I got.

I turn this into a gender bender anime where Naruto get stuck in his sexy jutsu form and have to live and act like a ninja with this body, and Sasuke is now in love with femNaruto and they end up fucking in a 3hour movie

12y old orphan girl living in a solo flat. What could go wrong.
exhentai.org/g/541002/6c7d71f195/

Make the Naruto and Sasuke's friendship more believeable.
Have Sasuke be cocky and arrogant but with a soft side like Han Solo. Don't have Sasuke leave the village and have Naruto lose his shit as if his only friend in the world has left forever, by that point Gaara was already a better friend to Naruto.
Make it look like Sasuke regrets leaving, not have him not giving a fuck about anyone.
Make Lee the secondary main character, have him defeat a major opponent.
Make the Sharingan not go beyond the hypnotic powers.

To be honest, if there's one major change i'd make, it'd probably be to hold characters true to their chakra limits and make moments they push past that be very costly. When a shonen discards its power systems for plot, everything goes nuts (albeit Rock Lee already shat over that, but still), so adhering to it more properly would maybe make things a little more sane.

At the very least, Naruto and truly powerful characters at the top rungs would still have an excuse for their drastic chakra expenditures, but still. Sasuke's great snake escape still makes no sense and still never got much of an adequate explanation or even any real consequence.

>And this is for starters.
make it more like Ninku

How I met your mother the anime.

Delete the uchiha

Tobirama go to sleep

Has the right idea
>semi-serious adventures of kaks abroad doing jonin shit and being recalled for serious anbu work
>icha icha filler, hunting for the next edition because he got on a courier ninja's bad side
>Anko's the on-off again love interest, into seriously kinky shit
>Has to deal with Naruto being borderline retarded but a good kid, followed by his pissed-off rescue Tayuya and the whole thing reminds him of Minato/Kushina
>Has to deal with Sakura being a whiny cunt with her priorities wrong mooning over sasuke and pointless girl issues while she learns to take the job seriously
>Has to deal with Sasuke's moody posturing and lost Linkin Park album
>Gai episodes, totally retarded challenges he does because he once lost a bet that he'd try every one
>Anbu episodes, emotionless spec ops cut loose in the break room and get piss drunk
>Tsunade's the big-tittied boss that's facing her mid(late) life crisis and keeps hitting on him
>Forced to compete against Bee in a rap battle

Make all the supernatural shit very, very esoteric and push it way into the background, so a guy spitting magical fireballs is treated as something extremely unusual and dangerous. Also, the thing is actually set in Sengoku Japan.
It ends with a timeskip after the battle of Anegawa, showing how the rise of firearms has influenced war.

Kill the fucking Kyuubi

Tone down the power levels drastically. Like kage is still top tier.

>>Forced to compete against Bee in a rap battle
And they both lose.

The lesson will be about having to bite the bullet when things are bad instead of the weird/gay friendship stuff; "coolest guy" and "yeah, sorry" were unacceptable, such awful writing.

I was so hyped for an actual important death when he ate that red pill; and then all the tension oozed away.

Have Madara kill Rock Lee and Ten Ten leaving guy with nothing else to lose. The fight is actually the whole fucking episode of taijutsu hand to hand that madara can barely keep up with. That way he goes full fucking retard strength against Madango. Everyone tries to keep up with him because he's too fucking fast. Instead of a giant dragon kick he does a one inch punch that blows out all of madaras organs leaving him a husk. Then Might guy actually dies and sees his students. 8 GATES IS WAAAAAAY STRONGER THAN THE KAGE

Dynamic Entry is some hardcore shit
