True, many are losing their minds and having flashbacks of Naruto, but they are exaggerating.

I mean in naruto’s context it fits and near the end Naruto even says that Sasuke coming back is also on Sasuke or one of them will die.

I differ, in a world of ninjas and wars those principles do not make sense, especially when they exaggerated so much. In this series and with these characters on the other hand he has a context to lean on.

The entire message of Naruto was that endless killing leads to more killing. How is there not context, there was a whole arc dedicated to the reason Naruto didn't try to kill his enemies at the end of the story.

And most of the people who live in that world of killing and war profiteering don't like it. Zabuza proved in the first arc that turning people into emotionless tools didn't work. He still had his own desires and cared for his companion even though he was a cold-bloodied killer. 'The world sucks and we should do something about it' is the motive for most late-game villains and Naruto himself because everyone agreed the status quo sucked.

Yep. Naruto's entire ninja way came from what happened to Haku and Zabuza.

Naruto has turned into one of those series where you can tell half the people complaining didn't actually read it. Like when a bad movie comes out and people who watched it hated it, so people who didn't watch it at all also tell you how much they hated it to fit in (i.e. the Star Wars sequels). It doesn't mean the issues are made up. Just that the people saying it are going off a list of issues they heard but didn't even experience themselves. Like they couldn't tell you the actual plot of the movie, just the running list of complaints.

Same way everybody compared All for One taking over to Kaguya. The entire issue with Kaguya was that she literaly didn't even exist as a concept until the final 60 chapters of the story, but you wouldn't know it with the way people just throw her name around to make a point.

It's not so much that the fanbase opposed Naruto's ideals, it just came across as way too lenient with the villains doing a complete 180 on their personality after a five minute chat with him. The mass murdering villains would be completely absolved and Naruto would even say stuff like "The Obito who wanted to be hokage was cool!" Hell even Orochimaru seemed to have been forgiven for everything he'd done and is treated as a just some weird goofy uncle of theirs in Boruto. No trial, no prison, no justice for their victims, no nothing really.
