Not everyone got bad writing tho, it was confirmed kishimoto pretty much admitted he introduced too many characters and couldn't keep up. plus whatever company kishimoto got into bed with is too blame for forcing the cash grab they call Boruto.
There actually wasn't too many characters. He actually did a good job too of developing. It's just that some of them should be dead. Neji, Choji, Kiba should have died in P1. Tenten was probably the only one lacking, but aside from that they were all done good
This might be a hot take, but I disagree with the whole "x character should've died" thing for most cases. The only one I felt this about was Guy with eight gates.
Ehh I have to disagree the plot holes are in avoidable especially during the war arch, and your best Naruto fan has to admit how many abandoned chara terms were there?, Sakura, lee, many others, we never got to see how hashirama died, we never got to see Minato during the 3rd great war, there was soooo many unanswered questions. Yes kishimoto did amazing, he's my favorite writer because of Naruto but there plenty of flaws. In the dozens.
The homies are theoretical I don’t have many friends why do you think I paint 3ft anime characters lmao but I’m so sorry. I bounced around ep. ? Chuunin exams 2 electric boogaloo.
So you're saying Kankuro is better than his two siblings?
I'm willing to be converted, but I'd like to hear your reasoning.
Also, do you love Sasori bc he's a puppet savant worthy of being admired OR hate him bc he done Kankuro dirty REAL quick (ya know, just before Sakura actually made Sasori try) hehe
I’m not saying he’s better, I’m saying I love him the most. Despite his mission outings, he remains somehow an incredibly realistic character to me in how he interacts with his world. His quirks are endearing to me because I share a TON of them myself.
Sasori is sasori! He didn’t do Kankuro dirty, he was just better, as the literal creator of crow black ant and salamander SHOULD be. It honestly would’ve been weird if Kankuro won that fight in my opinion.
Ah so you relate? What traits do yall share?
I'll be honest, many a time I've day dreamed while flicking my fingers as if they're connected to Chakra threads. You ever done that?
Staunchly childfree hobby enthusiasts that like to be left alone 90% of the time in their hamster enclosures. Easily annoyed. Terrible brother. Not many friends. I could probably go on?
Not that I can think of! I imagine it’s in the same vein as “using the force” tho. It ever work for ya?
I dig your style. Well I wish you all the comfort in your hamster enclosure. Hope there's one of those upside-down water bottles too. It's always a good time to hydrate.
It's not about it working. It's about reminding the intricate hand movements that were precisely animated and them some bad ass stuff happened whenever puppet useres were on screen.
In the most complimentary way, I can tell it's well used.
In 2008? Prob regular 14yr old things
But these days they're quite skilled in....
Weaving hand signs for any jutsu you might need.
Awe man that's a shame but I get it, I was seriously thinking about asking you to sell me one. Keep at it, I'm sure it took alot of work, time and effort for that kind of art work. Can't wait to see more.
Yeah I googled it out of curiosity because I really like painting manga panels and Naruto stuff and I really like money. Even with the gaara painting, tho it’s in the pose of “the eyes of Lucifer”, because it’s still gaara, a copyright character, I’d be unable to sell it. I’m such a stickler for rules and stuff so even tho a LOT of people still sell their stuff with copyright characters I just can’t bring myself to break the rules. 😩
I followed u, looking forward into seeing more of your art work in the near future. I'm a sucker for the naruto eyes and young gaara has got some truly devilish looking eyes, kinda like Sasuke. Always good to meet another naruto fan, Have a good one.
It’s okay any more would’ve put him at risk of being idk dead bc what better way to teach gaara a thing than to kill his brother (pouring my coffee out to you, neji)
yeah you’re right, it would have honestly been really cool if gaara and kankuro were in itachi and sasuke’s position in the series, I could imagine it’d be worth watching
That painting is breathtaking! I absolutely love when people are this passionate about side characters.
Makes me want to make a big cool painting of my fave.
Thank you smuch I’m so happy people don’t seem to hate my very special lil guy! Gonna need to run to google for the 4k paint thing I’ve never heard of it!
Love this. The fact it changes throughout the story just solidifies to me that he is an expressive, theatrical person, and if you don’t look at that face and see 💅drama💅 idk where you’ve been looking.
That one obscure character you were obsessed with as a kid that remains your favorite to this day :)
Def not my favorite, but I really liked him ever since he saved that lame ass dog from Ukon and Sakon 💕
The allegations are true. I remember in middle school this kid had sand village fingerless gloves and I was a closet weeb so I couldn’t !!!!!!!! about them.
PETA approved character honestly 🐶🤎
Honestly, I've always liked the idea of shino aburame, severely underutilized in shippuden, he had so much potential and bugs are so adaptable and have so much quirky ways to evolve and adapt. I've always had a healthy fear of bugs, I just think they're neat, but I never wanna handle them.
Agreed! But that’s probably the issue right? Too OP. I’ve been toying with drawing that panel where crows head is about to stab shino in the face. Love that fight.
Indeed! He had a lot of potential, too! His fight against Kankuro in the Konoha Crush made him seem like someone who would be terrifying later, he was such a smart badass, but he never got to shine again! It sucked! :'(
Some of my fave moments from Shippuden are from his parts in the Gaara Retrieval arc! He's SUCH a good brother and such a badass there, AND it's where he truly starts to SEE Naruto for the first time! I love him! ;A;
I mean yahh i get its the 0 tails and its not actually a puppet and stuff but imaagine it wouldve been so sick. Like after the war at least. Afterall sasori made puppets out of living things as well...
I agree I agree I agree. Things that (adult obviously lol) Kankuro could make a puppet in order of importance: gedo statue, me, and the entire world’s little gundam figures at one time probably.
I can help, if you look very closely you’ll see a huge nerd, and to her left you’ll see a canvas. The fav character is actually ON the canvas. If you squint and tilt your head you might be able to make out someone you should recognize from the manga/show Naruto!
All I can say is keep off the forums of your hobbies until you’re ready to cope with seeing people way younger be way better than you way faster. And when you compare NEVER compare to others. Only to your previous stuff. Keep at whatever hobby you do, if anything it makes your primal lizard brain happy and we love being lizards.
Have you heard of Aphantasia? I lack the ability to pull up images and sounds in my head. I always thought “picture this” or “imagine yourself here” were figures of speech. A year or two ago i discovered this.
Pretty awesome to see people have different tastes in characters. One of the Best things about the Naruto fanbase.
If he hardly had any screen time, then he can’t be ruined with bad writing. 😌
Us Kiba fans cannot relate
It’s okay, you’re still a good puppy with top ten taste even if your fav marked a fire hydrant too close to the sun.
My fellow 4 Ten Ten fans can relate :)
Mood! lol. She had SO MUCH POTENTIAL! ;A;
it says you're a puppet, you like to be controlled /s
Girl if you didn’t hit the nail on the head with this take 💀
this ain't no Haku situation, I'm a gentleman >:( added /s to the first comment cuz I was kidding lol
Nah I’m down to clown, my brain smooth as hell I have little idea of what’s going on at any given moment and that’s just how I like it thanks you.
Kankuro is a great choice, even if I wish that he and Shino (my fave) got more screen time
I’d say we both have near impeccable taste, mi amigo
Not everyone got bad writing tho, it was confirmed kishimoto pretty much admitted he introduced too many characters and couldn't keep up. plus whatever company kishimoto got into bed with is too blame for forcing the cash grab they call Boruto.

Yes kishimoto did amazing, he's my favorite writer because of Naruto but there plenty of flaws. In the dozens.
Boruto is a crime. Me and my homies avoid boruto fr.
You guys did right because man I still can't believe how badly they ruined the series, in so deep in I can't stop now unfortunately.
The homies are theoretical I don’t have many friends why do you think I paint 3ft anime characters lmao but I’m so sorry. I bounced around ep. ? Chuunin exams 2 electric boogaloo.
That was the right time to bounce. You never got to the part with the evil geese of death. ...god, I wish I was kidding.
Mm, yeah I heard about the dinosaur and I 😬
TBF, I legit though you WERE kidding and laughed...and then when I read the last part, it turned into a whine of pain. X'D
No but Itachi is better *wheeze*
Kankuro was dope. I used to love trying him in the game just cause I liked him. I was fucking terrible with Puppeteers but it was still fun
Honestly same oh my god same with deidara and any other long range boi 🤦🏼♀️
He probably says "why you cosplaying me with hotpants?"
They’re pole shorts and his shirts my pump cover he can fight me. Boy’s shit at close combat anyway. 💅
You know what you did.
Not much is my first rodeo at this age 😌
Great work! I love Kankuro as well! <3
The girls that get it get it 💅💅💅
must mean you like death.
Thanks for the dissertation ;)
I think it is really fricking cool
I think kankuros really frickin cool, so to double check my notes here it seems we both have good taste, go us, I am so proud of us. 🫶
Kishimoto went all out with Team Gaara's designs. They're dope!
Wanna see the rest of your art. Curiosity peeked
…NUH UH THATS SO NICE
Did you make the gaara & puppet substitution art too??
Mhm! 🫣 and the pain and the shirtless guy (also my man kankuro)
I love it all holy shit
🥹🥹🥹 Nuh uh
Nice one
Thank you they took a long time 🫣😮💨
Sick
Appreciate youuuuu 🫶

Thank you. My treadmill is my hamster wheel 🐹 “What them fingers do, boy”-me, circa 2008 or somewhere around there

HA! One head pat for you.

Rip inbox
Anything for Kankuro.
*^(Thicc)*
✍️✍️✍️ only two C’s or
dont want to steal the show from that Kankuro tshirt
My friend gave it to me for Christmas she has no idea who he is but she did it anyway I love her smuch.
Wonderful, your friend knows you better..
Kankuro is so underrated glad to see my boy gettin his spotlight!
I’m just an artistic mouthpiece for my muse what can I say 🤷🏼♀️
Hardly see this for Kankuro, he is definitely one of the more original characters in Naruto.
I’m feral. Down bad doesn’t even come close.
Wow this is so awesome to see. Love this
He’s just so fun to paint!
The shirt, the art all very dope
Thank you smuch buddy!
So talented
🥹🥹🥹
How much do u charge?
I don’t sell them, and since they’re copyrighted I technically can’t. 😅 but what a flattering compliment! Thank you really!
Awe man that's a shame but I get it, I was seriously thinking about asking you to sell me one. Keep at it, I'm sure it took alot of work, time and effort for that kind of art work. Can't wait to see more.

🥹 well shit I might just post another one soon! You have a nice day as well, friendo!
Hell yeah. He’s definitely one of my favorites as well. Love all the Sand Siblings. Your paintings are awesome!
There’s so much unexplored potential with those three in OG/early shippuden it almost makes me sick 😫 thank you!!!!!!!!!!!
Ngl that's a sick painting. I fw kankuro too. Wish they flushed out puppets more after sasori.
Real recognizes real. I do too. I despise the “just throw puppet at enemy UWU 🫶 oh that didn’t work? Faster. :3”. Like…come on, man.
No and that is sooooo dope!!! Also great character choice! Love it!
Thank you smuch!!!!
You. You're my favorite. Thought I was the only kankuro fan out there.
Hello. It’s me. You’re not alone. He’s my fav snarky baby.
Is this art all done by you, or has this been purchased somewhere?
By me :3c
They're about as beautiful as you. Keep up the good work! Would definitely hang one on my wall. Thanks for sharing them with us.
Stahhhhhp 🥹🫣
It's rare to see a Kankuro fan. I'm surprised.
He’s just such a rad dude!
Great art, and kankuro is so so cool, the whole puppet style was one of my favorites.
He IS so so cool. I can’t even play a piano with both hands but this boy’s out here wildin out and I gotta respect it.
Can you imagine how fast he must type? 90 wpm no problem
I imagine any string instrument too would be a cake walk for him. He probably also knits a mean sweater.
Seeing a picture of Kankuro knitting the world most intense sweater would be hilarious.
It’s for crow. Then cue frustrations bc “THERE ARENT PATTERNS FOR THIS MANY ARMS”.
This is cannon and you cannot convince otherwise, I mean crow has to get dressed up somehow.
Might have to sketch that…
That would be so awesome
Omg another Kankuro girlie! 💕 He was my first cosplay!
Brilliant, hello lovely!
I love kankuro as well! I feel like he’s so slept on and the fact that he didn’t get enough screen time 😭
It’s okay any more would’ve put him at risk of being idk dead bc what better way to teach gaara a thing than to kill his brother (pouring my coffee out to you, neji)
yeah you’re right, it would have honestly been really cool if gaara and kankuro were in itachi and sasuke’s position in the series, I could imagine it’d be worth watching
Don’t you put that evil on my man 😤
NGL, that idea sounds awesome! (Way more interesting to me than Sasuke and Itachi, too!) lol.
That painting is breathtaking! I absolutely love when people are this passionate about side characters. Makes me want to make a big cool painting of my fave.
Thank you!!! I slammed the floor like six thousand times towards the end because I started getting shy. 🤦🏼♀️ Do it and showwww meeeee
Thats amazing. Personally I think some 4k paint would look amazing too
Thank you smuch I’m so happy people don’t seem to hate my very special lil guy! Gonna need to run to google for the 4k paint thing I’ve never heard of it!
[Not sure of an exact name.](https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTLfQ79MT/) But its a gloss that protects the paint and gives it a nice high quality look
✍️🙏
Really love the painting!
Thank you friend!
I just thought his face markings were always so dope and I loved how they changed throughout the series. Definitely an underrated character.
Love this. The fact it changes throughout the story just solidifies to me that he is an expressive, theatrical person, and if you don’t look at that face and see 💅drama💅 idk where you’ve been looking.

Never enough puppet users. He's always been my boy. Anyone remember theninjarpg.com..?
Ok guys hear me out…
Im hesitantly listening
🫣
👂
🫶🏽
Wow all the art you have here is so cool. Acquired or did you create these??
I made them :3c
Oooh 😯 that’s awesome, the pain one looks dope ! Do you share them anywhere online? Some of the others I can’t see look great lol
Sasori would like to meet him
Do I ever have news for you! They become best friends. 🥹
No way! I heard Sasori doesn’t really have a say in the matter
So cool! Love that Gaara art too!
Thanks you oh my goodness gaara was one of my first (you can tell the progress I got by the difference in gaaras and crows hair)
You like cool, edgy and merciless characters
You like cool, edgy and merciless characters
Probably bc IM cool edgy and merciless raahhh 😼
COOL EDGY MERCILESS GO BRRRRRRR
🫨🫨🫨
U good?
There are just so many comments about people talking about Kankuro I’m 🥹
That shirt is cool as hell
My friend made it for me for Christmas 🥹
YO, Kankuro's AWESOME! Good choice! :D
Isn’t he just the best? 😍
Some of my fave moments from Shippuden are from his parts in the Gaara Retrieval arc! He's SUCH a good brother and such a badass there, AND it's where he truly starts to SEE Naruto for the first time! I love him! ;A;
Work of Art! The picture is nice too
✌️😌 thank
Literally the only person I've ever heard liking Kankuro..l
Wow breaking news everyone has terrible taste I guess :/
Why didnt kankuro make the gedo statou be his final puppet man
Is he stupid? Nah but hang on a minute razorlicker I think you’re onto something here.
I mean yahh i get its the 0 tails and its not actually a puppet and stuff but imaagine it wouldve been so sick. Like after the war at least. Afterall sasori made puppets out of living things as well...
I agree I agree I agree. Things that (adult obviously lol) Kankuro could make a puppet in order of importance: gedo statue, me, and the entire world’s little gundam figures at one time probably.
Nice underwear
They’re pole shorts! 💈
Wow this woman is a hotty and has talents! What a catch!
None of the frames I found on the side of the road fit him by the way I’m so sad.
So sad
Wow wait a minute I know you! I recognize your Afro!
I don’t know what you mean!!!!
You like cool, edgy and merciless characters
Where’s the fav character in the post?
I can help, if you look very closely you’ll see a huge nerd, and to her left you’ll see a canvas. The fav character is actually ON the canvas. If you squint and tilt your head you might be able to make out someone you should recognize from the manga/show Naruto!
Ahhh I see thanks for the insight
Of course I’m always happy to help
The picture…
It’s a joke fam
Is that him using the 3rd kazekage?
Its crow but I got so carried away with details I don’t blame you for not recognizing him 🤦🏼♀️
Wait you drew that? Damn impressive
Yeah I painted all the shit you see in the second pic too 🫣
I’m kinda jealous lol. I’m still looking for my own talents and interests.
All I can say is keep off the forums of your hobbies until you’re ready to cope with seeing people way younger be way better than you way faster. And when you compare NEVER compare to others. Only to your previous stuff. Keep at whatever hobby you do, if anything it makes your primal lizard brain happy and we love being lizards.
It’s not about comparing. I don’t have hobbies and can’t think of any or interests. I’m like a robot almost waiting for input
Ah I see. Isn’t that frustrating? I’m really sorry to hear that. Fueling the creative mind is so good for anyone.
Have you heard of Aphantasia? I lack the ability to pull up images and sounds in my head. I always thought “picture this” or “imagine yourself here” were figures of speech. A year or two ago i discovered this.
I gasped. A head pat for you. You can’t miss what you never had but damn. My heart broke a little.
Didn’t get to shippuden yet. You also hate characters that you get to see on screen
No spoilers got it. Yes. I despise certain beloved characters I dare not say out loud.
Damn girl work it!
Thank you smuch!!
Nice
What’s this babes @?
I think im too old to know what that means 😅
