Current Events > It's kind of annoying at how sexist Naruto is [Shippuden Spoilers up to e66]

(+) Yeah! (+)

I thought Sakura was finally going to get some shine, but they just sent her to do more medical shit away from the fighting. And then Ino shows up, and they send her to the medical ninjas as well

---

How did they bring these 4 Fire people back to life. Orochimaru needed those tag things and sacrifices. These 4 a long with all the dead fire ninja. I know is sloppy filler, but come on

---

Fuck this, I'm skipping to episode 69. Filler ends on episode 71, so I'll just take it from here. This arc is boring AF

---

Kishimoto was kinda sexist and just shit at writing women which he admitted so himself. They were relegated to background roles so he could just ignore them

There was a point by the end where they said Sakura is akin to Tsunade and I was like "Bitch! You've done nothing to deserve that comparison!"

Yeah, the women were written like jobbers, and then Kishi probably felt the need to give a female at least one memorable moment so he wrote Ino of all characters to be the first person to actually do something to Madara in the final war arc. So random, but I at least appreciated the scene for what it was.

Pretty much. The best female character is filler only lmao

Come on, buddy, you don't have to spoil me. I'm not going to mark you or anything, I have seen up to a bit past the Pain Arc, but I don't remember shit.

Kishimoto isn't sexist, he just has a hard time writing women well. Remember, he's a shonen author, he's writing to appeal to boys. Quite a few authors have that problem, particularly the Death Note author, Ohba.

But every time they talk about ninja in general, they always refer to them as men; He/Him. The Ninja of the Water Temple fought well. Every man to his last breath.

I don't know, drives me crazy. Not just here, but everywhere.

And look at Tsunade. One of the best Ninjas alive, and can't do shit but sit in her office while everyone else fights. Fucking Naruto had to protect her once right after she beat his ass with one finger

And I wish this was on Netflix as well. I really can't stand Hulu since you can't just skip the opening and the, "next episode," won't play automatically after 5 seconds and skip the end song and the intro and just get right into the episode like on Netflix. Which means I can't just lay back in bed and watch since I have to keep getting up ever 15 or so mins to click the button to go to the next episode, lay back for 3mins and then have to get up again to skip the intro.

Well sorry, but you wrote this topic as if you knew what happened in the series to warrant calling Kishi sexist. My apologies.
