Naruto [Naruto] Update List
- Thread starter CatOnFire
- Start date
The Howling Wind by Jmenace has now been scrapped and is being rewritten under the title of The Wind, Howling (except its still called The Howling Wind in the title). Prologue is up. He's also got a patreon set up and is accepting donations in the hope that enough money will come in that he can dedicate more time towards writing.
That and the whole anime/manga industry tacitly accepts it; all the Circles selling doujin at Comiket are technically breaking copyright law, but they don't get prosecuted because they're not seen as hurting original product sales. The idea is that fan materials encourage interest in the original product, so they're not seen as harmful.
Meanwhile, because Western Comics tend to recycle the same characters through similar story arcs over and over again, fan media is seen as direct competition with whatever the content-owners are publishing.
And Disney seems to think anything they touch is theirs forever and they've spent a ton of money lobbying that way, so I kind of think that copyright law has turned into regulatory capture rather than guaranteeing the original artist is fairly remunerated.

Sealkeeper: He Who Binds Ch.44
Note that cannibalism is one of my pet peeves, so the story has lost the benefit of the doubt I gave it.

I had to read this chapter after that comment. My lizard brain read cannibalism and just had to get more details on the tragedy. This fic is giving me Chuunin Exam Day flashbacks with how amoral the NINO is. The one thing it has going for it is that maybe the plot seems to be moving forward instead of just endless training.
Legacy Undone updated.
not worse, just... the meh, kind of boring with a pinch of the same shit over again formula.
the new 'things' are that the Orochithingy suggested Rasa to ally with Wave and stop the plans to fuck with Konoha because it was not worth it (which could be interesting), Hana liking being in wave, Ino moaning about how herself and her family loved to dig themselves deeper, Femruto contemplating how much NINO 'changed', 2-3 paragraphs worth of Hinata wondering the meaning of the vial full with Inoichi's blood and NINO wondering about buying a new freezer because the current one was full with Inoichi's parts, which IMHO was tasteless, irrelevant and needless, equaling in a very dissapointing chapter.
ah and Anko being her 'common' 'lusty' fandom self without too much depth like sadly most of the time.
if i come to read it again once it's finished it would be just for how the Akatsuki issue would be resolved, but i don't have high hopes of that ever happening.

Honestly, I couldn't bring myself to actually read the latest chapter, let alone look into the reviews. I might read it to see how far the story has fallen... eventually.
Edit: @shioran toushin: Fair enough. I believe all of us here were aware exactly what Alignment this Naruto fell into to begin with. In my case, I acknowledged him as a Villain Protagonist even early on, when I liked the story. (Not when I referred to him as that in my posts here; even earlier, before I read halfway through the story.)

Man have you seen the people that review these days? some stories i try out have terrible grammar, ton of typos, misspelled names, but do the reviews say anything about that? nope its just, "will naruto get <insert crazy god power or a pairing>" or "update please" most reviews are useless drivel these days
Road to Heaven updated: Chapter 13
