Was Naruto Shippuden’s Power Scaling Inevitable?
From the start, we hear about a demon fox that can destroy mountains and cause tsunamis with its “tails lashing out.” With Naruto as its host, wasn’t he always gonna reach that level? And if he did, wouldn’t Sasuke and other major characters have to scale up too?
Villains kept escalating. Pain was god like, but he wasn’t even the final boss. Then came Obito, Madara, and Kaguya, each more broken than Nagato. Even techniques we saw early on, like the Eight Gates, turned out way stronger than we first thought.
Was all this just natural progression as the stakes got higher, or could they have kept things more grounded? What do y’all think?
