[@MangoMann072]

Great video! Also the creator of Naruto Masashi Kishimoto didn't make the 300 episodes of Naruto filler. The manga/source material goes from the Sasuke retrieval arc directly to the time skip. You can blame studio pierrot for the filler.

[@chillreview636]

@@MangoMann072 I know. I wasn't blaming Kishimoto for the filler. I was just saying that the anime was unfortunately plagued by it after that arc

[@The_Autistocrat]

@@chillreview636 I think that alone might be the biggest similarity if you look at the Absurd Filler Arc, and the initial criticism people had over Family Guy. They both right there feel low watered down versions of the genre for the lowest common denominator. Naruto thanks to the filler shit felt like the anime version of Family Guy's cutaway gags. Family Guy on the other hand got flak because people felt jokes for adult comedy needed to be set up. South Park for example will make an entire episode filled with jokes, but the whole episode is all driven by a plot focusing on one big joke or idea. They all flow and feel connected. Family Guy on the other hand with its cutaways came off as like "Shit, our writing is bad, quick, give me a random absurd joke to fill the time." A filler arc in anime is effectively their variant of the cutaway gag. Just random bullshit to pad out the timer except over a number of episodes instead of a 10 second window given anime is plot driven, whereas Family Guy is episodic and can for the most part be watched in any order without any real need to focus on the question of "How does this contribute to the episode overall?" Comedy in general around the mid 2000s got really elitist and snobby because of the rise of Dane Cook. I remember when he was achieving meteoric success, almost every other comedian viscerally shit on him because to them, they were doing an art, he was just spitting out random ass, low effort tirades he called jokes and getting the applause they were wanting. Family Guy had this kind of a relationship with South Park and the Simpsons. The whole point of Cartoon Wars was poking at the senseless chaotic comedy of Family Guy being very juvenile because it was done in the simplest way vs Simpsons and South Park who would set up a 20 minute premise, then come up with jokes that fed into that premise. Whereas with Family Guy you had an average of 6 cutaway gags per episode and they didn't really drive the plot or the premise, they were just out of place. Then later they started reusing the same cutaway gags like Peter hitting his knee or Conway Twiddy and they would drag on for fucking ever. The chicken fights at least got far more elaborate as they happened.

[@chillreview636]

@@The_Autistocrat yeah I remember the South Park Vs Family Guy days really well. They were 2 of my favorite shows back in the day and I never understood why people couldn't appreciate them both for their differences rather than saying one writing style was better than the other.

I think it’s worth noting that they gave the Shippuden subtitle to the anime. The manga stayed “Naruto” the whole way through. This was still an enjoyable comparison, I really liked it! Real weebs know that Dragon Ball is tied with Yu Yu Hakusho as the biggest influence on Naruto.

[@chillreview636]

Ahhh never knew that about the Naruto manga. And yeah, Yu yu Hakusho defintiely played a role in inspiring Naruto.

Great video man you made really good points that I mostly agree with. The only little nitpick I have is about shippuden and how it kind of comes across as a secondary show in this video instead of "Naruto part 2". I think people who might be new to anime could get that impression from the video since you call it a spin-off

[@chillreview636]

Thanks for watching! Glad you lik3d the vid too. I see your point about Shippuden. I definitely could have described it more accurately for people unfamiliar

[@pokehunterhd]

My initial reaction to the title: you mean like how both shows are infamous for always having a ton of "filler" in the episodes (Naruto with it's flashbacks and Family Guy with it's cutaways).

[@chillreview636]

Definitely a good point, but I feel like Naruto isn't the only the anime with a lot of filler. It's definitely the biggest anime with the most filler though

Damn I don't even wanna tell you how old i was in 2004 😅 But honestly, you were born in a pretty good time. You get to watch anime in a time where it's way more publicly accepted, and you can binge the shows I could only watch once a week back in the day with no Netflix, Crunchyroll or anything

[@dougbeck4011]

1st I wanna say great video and definitely can see the vision with it! But I have to say being one that read the Manga kishimoto had split the series up with a time skip not cuz of him wanting to or the show cuz the show was at the time behind him he thought it had made more sense and then the anime called it shippuden for whatever reason but it's all technically one series

[@chillreview636]

Glad you liked the video! And you're right - they are basically the same series just one has a time skip. The reason I classify them as two different series is that Shippuden changes a lot of core elements from the original in a very similar way to how Dragon Ball Z changed the OG Dragon Ball formula

[@dougbeck4011]

@chillreview636 nah that's a fair take

[@WilliamStoneContentZone]

What does this make King Of The Hill? Also what are your thoughts on Cowboy Bebop?

King of the Hill is tough.... maybe Bleach. They're both kinda about nothing (not in a bad way) and both had a lot of success but nearly as much as their contemporaries. And I love Bebop, but as I explain in this video, I'm not a huge fan of Spike's backstory and how it becomes the main focus of the climax kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZmWbp6qdqKqng6csi=nexxaMOnOiqAiUjN

Narutos inspiration is clearly yuyu hakusho but I get what u saying.

[@chillreview636]

Hmmm never thought about it like that before. Could you explain more?

[@jakoreyaj]

@chillreview636 Sure. It's more character based than story based, though there are some story elements that are similar. Yusuke, imo is the OG young misunderstood troublemaker with a good heart as the protagonist and naruto definitely followed that troupe. Theres also the similar desires for strength being based around bringing people together. And of course, the inner demon that they both share, though its explored in very different ways. Then you look at hiei/kurama and susuke/kakashi. The relationship between sasuke and kakashi is more student teacher based than friend based, but in both relationships, you do see hiei and sasuke turn to the older/wiser one for guidance more than once. Then you have hiei/sauske being almost one for one. Hiei again, imo is an OG purposely edgy but cool character, and again, sasuke is clearly that. There's even the black flame connection 🤷🏾‍♂️. Kurama, the cool, calm, and collected character that always seems to have the answer and like i eluded to, hes the eldest of the four so they all do look to him for answer more often than not similar to kakashi. Hell Kurama full demon form is literally a silver hair fox.... and then there's kuwabara and susuke who have almost nothing in common, except they are both powerhouses that were shown and said to pick up on teachings/techniques faster than most. Didnt mean for this to be so drawn out bro but yea. Thats what i think

@chillreview636 Both Naruto and Timmy had lives that were absolute trash, and nobody respected or liked them, though there was more to both characters than what meets the eye. Naruto has the nine tailed fox inside him, and Timmy has fairy God's parents. Both originated as pilots in the 90s before becoming hit franchises in the 00s. Naruto had its one shot in 1997, and FOP had the Oh Yeah Cartoons Shorts in 1998. Both stories dragged on for too long, and both had spinoffs/sequel series that weren't as good the original even in the current year.
