Ok. I just got done reading the newest chapter of Shippuden and...wow. Is it just me, or has naruto's character really changed? I mean, he's stopped being so hot-headed, he thinks before he acts, and most of all he not just "all bark and no bite" anymore! He can actually kick some serious tail now!
I used to hate Naruto's character. I was all for Shika, Choji, and Lee. Naruto and Sasuke didn't interest me at all. But now that he actually has power, smarts, and level headedness, I feel differently. What do you think?
