Naruto Chapter 566

[UChessmaster]

a) Naruto still kinda sucked after the time skip, despite training with Jiraiya for 3 years

Sure, why not, but he got much better ever since.

c) Sasuke defeated Deidara

So...? Deidara wasn`t exactly the strongest akatsuki member.

d) Akatsuki-members were downgraded to "just" strong criminals instead of being those uber-monsters that they were presented as before the time skip

Out of all 10 members, which one was underwhelming to you? besides Deidara i guess...

e) mere ninjas could suddenly fight with bijuus, even defeating them. So much for those "powerful" monsters

Out of the top of my head, i can think of mostly Akatsuki members defeating Tailed beasts, you`re complaining about them being too strong but you complained about them being too weak before...?

f) Orochimaru was killed as a by-product

After Sasuke`s training was over, Orochimaru served absolutelly NO purpose in the story.
