Naruto Episode 17 Storyboard/Direction: Toshiyuki Tsuru

When Naruto was really about ninjas using assassination techniques and not about giant kaijuus shooting beams out of their 3 heads. Good times.

People always talk about Lee vs Gaara but they never mention the stellar animation in Naruto’s first fight with the Kyuubi’s chakra against Haku during the Land of Mist arc.

Toshiyuki Tsuru save the Bleach anime

This was so awesome. And then they went back to awful drawing shortly after. It's like they broke their arms drawing this.

This looks so fucking good man. Tsuru my 🐐.

Naruto: I HATE GIRL WITH DIIIIIIIIIIIIH!!!!!!👹

I'd almost cry. At that time, the manga was amazing and I loved the anime. I think over time the author betrayed his characters.
