Naruto is a very simple story, in its message and even approach and that's one of the main reasons why I like itTHANK YOU
Seriously I always hate how mfs act like being known as Minato's son would've mean anything, ignoring the situations of Gaara and Killer Bee confirming that would be complete BULLSHIT
And it's even worse in Naruto's case as unlike with Bee and Gaara's Bijuu, Kurama outright nearly destroyed Konoha and killed hundreds to thousands that night which would've made Naruto despised by the village for being his Jailer even had Minato and Kushina LIVED past that day lmao
No matter what happened, whether Kurama rampaged or not...whether Minato and Kushina lived or not...Naruto being Kurama's Jinchuriki sadly damned him from Day 1
That little arc with Naruto on Turtle Island was some of the best of the series imo
It showed us how Jinchuriki are treated no matter the village, it addressed Konoha switching up on Naruto and his feelings on it, it addressed Naruto's birth and his mother.
Its so perfect and then it leads into the beginning of the War Arc which is really good too.
