But actually. Kishimoto I know you don’t know how to write but Naruto’s entire origin story is about him being alone in the village growing up AND YET in EVERY FLASHBACK we can CLEARLY see Chouji, Kiba, and Shikamaru being his friends……….so what is the truth.
Naruto was like Meet the Robinsons Goob as a child
*naruto, reflecting on his past*
Young Kiba: Hey Naruto, cool whiskers!
Young Shikamaru: hey Naruto!! Chouji and Ino are coming to my house for dinner tonight you wanna come?
Naruto: they all hated me. *cue the swing*
