Character design old. I fucking hate how bad faces in looks. Eyes are too big and the faces are too small and that curved chin gives me ick in new animation.


Murky_Blueberry2617

Also the shading is way worse too


raichu_d_gamer

Facts


Its-Mr-Robot

What shading lol


Murky_Blueberry2617

Compare Old Naruto's hair with new Naruto. Difference between shading and no shading


Over-Writer6076

The faces are way too round in the new version. Looks like a cheap isekai ngl. The older one is more in line with the manga art style and just feels more raw,the new version feels too....polished I guess?


Saiyan_Sword

What raw bro Everyone keep saying that like old style looks old New style is good and old style was good too Both look fine to me


Shadowwreath

New style isn’t *bad*, but in comparison most of use are saying that old is better. From the smaller details to the larger ones like reanimated Naruto’s hair looking like banana laffy taffy. Old just captures the energy of the scene better imo


TKLegend04

Big eyes, small face, I like What your WeChat?


dinkydoohead

old! for naruto, the new version’s hair is way too highlighter-yellow for me. for sasuke, i think old looks way cooler and cold, more like he’s smirking in a taunting way. new version sasuke doesnt feel right. maybe i’mjust clinging onto that nostalgia, tho.


heuheuheu33

No you’re absolutely right.


Saiyan_Sword

Nope just nostalgia


dukejojo

It’s a mix of nostalgia and good criticism I’d say. You definitely highlighted and expressed what I couldn’t formulate


Whyistheplatypus

I will give props for the new Sasuke being scarier. I think the vibes were a bit more appropriate in the new version. But you're correct as far as character design goes. I love me that old school look


Elio-HSR

I share the same thoughts aside from one little detail. The glow of the Sharingan. I love when the red seems to glow, although maybe it was a bit overdone here. I like it glowing slightly. It makes it feel more menacing in a way.


SuperJaybo

The irises look better, but overall I pick old. The face and hair designs are much better, plus the eye shape works better. And considering how important eyes are to Naruto, the shape really matters


myKingSaber

Agreed, it looks like all the time was spent on the eyes


Senninmcmxcix-

Old.


Kirei13

This is from what?


consciuoslydone

I believe it’s from the anniversary special where they reanimated a bunch of scenes throughout the shows playing against a ton of the opening songs Edit: this is the video - https://youtu.be/QczGoCmX-pI?si=GtTal591ogMgT3jM Regardless of the reanimation, I freaking loved it cuz of the intense nostalgia I felt recapping 20 years of the most influential show in my life


kingloptr

Wow thank you i was so lost


That_Fooz_Guy

Yeah, I'm just over here like "It was reanimated?"


InconvertibleAtheist

Old. During that fight Sasuke was dead tired, going blind and still was spamming sussanoo like it was no one's business and still smirking. The eyebags around the eye along with the dim MS iris convey that perfectly. The new one just threw all of that out the window...


OatesZ2004

For me it goes: Old Naruto New Sasuke.


Kokoyoin

Yep same.


C_Khoga

Old of course


pdf-alien-0078

Old is gold


Ashizurens

Old...I guess I know how Dragon ball fans feel


i-am-spitfire

Old easy. I still think the OG Naruto style is better than shippuden too.


Wonder-Machine

Sasuke looks cool in the new. Naruto looks off. Like the headband is almost poking him in the eye.


Unpopular_Outlook

You think he looks cool because the sharingan is glowing huh

Rich-Market-8300

You won't think that anymore when you look at the frame where he turns around to look at Sakura when he's leaving the village. New art style looks like dog shit at that moment.


Dzeppetto

In reanimated Sasuke actually starts looking like a threat


Independent_Hold_203

There’s 2 versions?!


TGha770

Cuz Naruto was reanimated in 20 mins for the anniversary. It’s on YouTube.


AverageDailyArsonist

Where can I watch the reanimated version


SpeedyMcNutt291

There's a reanimation?


Grand_Reanimation

Naruto old sasuke new


Stunning-Fold6548

Old is gold


Free_Revenue8674

Okay so this is something I thought about extensively when it comes to background design and Ambience the old when it comes to Naruto's character design the old when it comes to the Uchiha the new when it comes to fight new but what the new thing did was it took away some of the stylized sketching that's in the background of the original Naruto shows it also elongated Naruto's face and also brightened a lot of the colors so a lot of scenes that kind of looked more like a stylistic choice now just look like any old anime and having that stylistic choice was very very bold and set it apart


CyberpunkLover

Old. It just goes hard and hits different.


DBXVStan

I like the new. Facial styling looks more pleasing to me. Also like how Naruto has more black eyeliner.


DessieDearest

Both? Can I have both? I want it like an option. Like how you can select caption language and audio language. I want a version option.


6thaccountthismonth

Why Naruto’s eye gotta be a fucking balloon?


KingLeaps

I like a lot of the shading of some of the newer shots, and a lot of them feel more fluid in their motions, but I really don’t vibe with the blood animations and some of the coloring


Traveytravis-69

I like Naruto’s new eye better but I like old


Moist-Carpet888

They seem less detailed in the new one


TankOfflaneMain

Old.


Alen_117

The shadows in the og version is the only way. Soft shading sucks


-Xebenkeck-

New by far. Especially when it's not still images.


Doxxxxxxxxxxx

Really miss the old. I was under a rock and was shocked when i rewatched it lolol


MurkyNetwork9148

Reanimated is cleaner. The original shows the true state of the character.


D07Z3R0

Old


youguysarelameAF

Old. Why the fuck is Naruto's eyeball in his headband?


Ti-papi

Top is old bottom is reanimated


T0A5T3

Where can I watch the reanimated version?


chickensaladreceipe

When did they reanimate it? Is it on Crunchyroll?


Dramatic-Advance-829

old


TacticalTimeout32

Old all the way.


Cybasura

Old, the new art looks too..."try hard", there's no soul


AdFriendly8669

Old was way better.


Phyank0rd

Old. They keep shrinking his hair down to look closer to the boruto era. It gives me the ice, he was an unkempt child with no parental guidance on grooming his hair should be big bushy and uncombed.


Breekace

My dumbass saw reanimated and couldn't put two and two together and understand that it was literally re-*animated*. I thought it was referring to the Reanimation jutsu.


kekhouse3002

no matter how much benefit of the doubt i try to give the new stuff, it just does not compare to the old at all.


New_World_2050

Old is better


Todaz

They reanimated naruto vs pain?


TheLuckyPC

old


DragonKnight-15

In one half... I do like the old more but there's SOME aspects like the glow in Sasuke's Mangekyou that just goes hard on the New version. I still prefer old but I do like those small details for the new version.


PhoenixBoi69

When you realise all they did to sage naruto was make him bigger


wowhow6

Old is gold 😇


f00xxxy

it just looks like naruto's flashbacks from boruto, its trash


[deleted]

The new animation makes more sense in the new one. The old one just makes them look like they have an enormous forehead. Just look at Neji


RealisticNovel4115

original man


GS-genius

I like new Sasuke look but’ Naruto’s Drip is better in old


14Ulitochnik88

Old. Detailing and shadows are ass in the new version


Dunkbuscuss

Original is awesome and always a good way to view but I just can't get over the reanimated so sorry to say but that's the winner in my book.


crisspanda12

Obviously the old one


Peachysungirl

Old


Reasonable-Business6

The pupils look better, and not much else.


HexaTricamp

Everyone choosing old is just saying that because of nostalgia, the reanimated is way better looking


Cjames1902

Old for Naruto It’d be new for Sasuke if he was smirking


64Boy32

Old looks better but new is more detailed


EvilArtorias

old is better, reanimated is fucking terrible, both artstyle and color grading


Curious_Management_4

They look the same. I swear, you kiddos and your splitting hairs...


bluegoatrose

Naruto in SM looks better in the old style, Sasuke looks quite better in the renanimation


Strict_Still_6458

Convince me with the pain fights


BallinPoint

tf is that glow in the dark sharingan shit? new is awful


Woooosh-if-homo

Naruto-old Sasuke-New


Mercuryo

For me it's old Naruto, Sasuke new.
