I really like this article’s emphasis on parental/familial love in Naruto, which I’d argue was its strongest feature. Romantic love in Naruto is often too one-sided with sexist undertones in my opinion, but I still appreciate a positive outlook on something that’s often derided by the manga’s critics.

I love the character dynamics of Eyeshield 21, but thought that their development was sometimes a little shallow. This is an interesting perspective that has me reconsidering 😁

I really like the part of this article that questioned what it meant to stay true to an original work when adapting it. I don’t mind changes to the plot, as long as I feel the writers understood the story and their changes were informed by that understanding. But yeah, adapting a piece of work to a different medium must be super frustrating, especially knowing how fans tend to react 😑
