Fandom is like the Rumpelstiltskin: they can turn piles and piles of crap canon material and turn them into gold.

Also story time!: I remember starting to read Naruto (a friend introduced me to it). It was my first taste of shounen manga (outside of Dragon Ball/DBZ). I thought it was pretty interesting how they actually explored the fact that Naruto wasn't happy being an orphan, and how having some weird ass demon inside wasn't so cool. By the end of the Zabuza & Haku arc, I had hopes it was going to explore shounen manga tropes and do a deconstruction of them.

And then everything else happened, oh boy...

Yeah, all of Part I really seemed to be trying to do that. I honestly don't know why Part II started playing every trope straight. Maybe the author just got bored.

Yeah, the same happened to me. I still love the first part, before the time skip, because it felt different from other shounen. But then, cliche after cliche after cliche...

I was madly in love with Naruto until the time skip. Everything just got over-complicated after that. Same thing happened to Bleach after the first arc, never touched both of them anymore after that.

I like the beginning of part 2. LOVED all the Gaara and Shikamaru stuff, but yeah, a lot of the over used tropes started showing up up mid way through out that opening.

I remember me and some friends thinking everything was going be soooo good at that point... and slowly leaving the series out of boredom and frustation. Years later I realized the problems started since the first part...
