Naruto — Chapter 693

Hey Shinobi fam! Chapter Vol.72 No. 694 of Naruto (Official) certainly got readers talking, and oh boy, is there a strong sentiment brewing about a certain Uchiha! 🤔

The main takeaway? A significant chunk of the fandom is seriously frustrated with Sasuke in this chapter. Readers are calling him out for being incredibly "narrow-minded" and seemingly blind to the vast experiences Naruto has endured. There's a big contrast drawn: while Sasuke at least knew familial love, Naruto faced 12 years of true loneliness and universal hatred, yet grew to inspire respect and admiration.

What truly grinds gears is Sasuke telling Naruto he "could never understand" what it means to be Hokage or better the village. Fans are quick to point out that Naruto has experienced loss, gain, loneliness, and camaraderie, showcasing a far more "vast and open" worldview compared to Sasuke’s "tiny lens." It’s clear this clash of ideals has left readers feeling quite a bit of exasperation! 💢
