So suzy lets take a step back and think about these things logically. There has always been a mysterous era surrounding naruto but nothing ever really was explained. He inhererntly possessed the ability to make people change around him and his way of combatting internal strugle based on his terrible upbringing was as the sage mention "cooperation" with others. You have always wanted to know a answer to the truth, the origin story behind who naruto really is and to that extent sasuke. What makes these characters so "Special". Well the author has finally gave you that revelation. Naruto and Sasuske all this time has allways been deeply connected and recinarnated as their ancestors of the Uchiha and Senju being the sons of the sage of six paths, Ashura and Indra. Obvously all of this is alot of information to take in but believe me there is alot more hidden under the surface that will be explained later. You are also starting to understand the ROOT of the shonen power system in this story, that being the chakra essence of Ninjutsu and Ninja creed. All of this of course will be explained further and it all ties into kaguya, the rabbit goddess.

Not many authors actually take the time to answer such a detailed explaination behind the logistics of were the abilities come from and the origin stories but Kishomoto has done just that. In most cases you just have to expect that its a shonen there exist shonen magic but naruto is different in that respect, there is an answer to everything.

I disagree, there is no answer to everything. For instance: Why is Obito's Sharingan still active? After the amount of time he has used it, it should have been long overused. This being one of the examples.

OH yeah lol for sure if your going to talk flaws and inconsistencies in naruto, i didn't really get into all that. I was just trying to explain to suzy that kishimo tried is best to explain the origins behind everything in the series and wrap up everything despite its poor execution. The whole Kaguya story in my opinion was not even properly planned or forshadowed or anything, it was pretty obvous it was shoe horned into the story at the end. In actuality, it deserved an entire arc, seperate from the 4th war dedicated to it, to really help flesh out that lore and history more and the final battle was a joke.

So i guess moral of the story is, well the story of naruto obvously isn't the greatest in terms of writing and execution but Kishimoto did connect everything together, other authors for example bleach and fairy tail, kept things wide open with so many plot holes not resolved. From a Writers standpoint though it of course doesn't equal the quality of stuff like one piece, hxh or gintama.

I think the Itachi filler would be better posted after the conclusion of Shippuden. It adds nothing to the story and just breaks up momentum. Still a fun watch though.

Episode 426 is a canonical filler and episode 427 is a filler, but the beginning is relatively important to understand everything. Episode 428 - 449 are unnecessary filler, episode 451 a Kannoischer filler, you can also uplouden if you like, but then again from 452 - 457 unnecessary filler, episode 458 is then also a Kannoischer filler, folge 459 is again canon and then comes the "Ootsutsuki" filler arc, which I have explained below spoiler free.

You can also upload the Rikudou Sennin filler episodes (460 - 469), as they are filler episodes but still explain the story between Rikudou Sennin, Ashura and Indra.

The Sage didn't just "show up" but like he said certain conditions were meant in order to do so. Remember, Obito is currently giving Naruto the other half of Kuruma AND a section of the first and eighth's chakra allowing Naruto to have a portion of each tailed beast within him allowing the Sage to appear at this very moment.

Anime sometimes tells it's stories through different mediums, like One Piece does with geography or MHA does with Society, Naruto does it with history. History has patterns, never quite repeats but rhymes, similar notes with different details.

Its not werid at all that Hogaromo can visit Naruto now that Naruto is connected by all the tailed beast chakra, chakra that came from Hogaromo. The 2 are now connected.

I just realized the episode where Kakashi and Obito transport Obito to the other dimension together was in 417 which she didn't post a reaction to.

She mentioned it. That episode is listed in the filler episodes to skip. However like many filler there is canon moments in it. That scene is one that falls to that problem. At least she did see it though.
