About the characters....

This is not a chapter but please read it.

I've been trying to solve this dilemma as I've been writing the latest chapter. And I've come to the conclusion that some of the characters will have to be ooc in this fanfiction.

A personality is born from both the character themselves and circumstances, memories and experiences that they have endured in there lives. They are also affected by age and the characters are the age of their The Last Naruto the movie selfs.

And such as

-Naruto is not a complete idiot in this fanfiction. He is not overly optimistic or goal-driven either because in this story his parents were killed in front of his eyes when he was 12 years old unlike in cannon he actually knew them and so their deaths affected him more deeply than in cannon thus bringing about changes in his personality. He was raised in a royal family and as such was properly educated and is actually intelligent. The fact that he has been in isolation for the past year has also affected him. Writing him to be an idiot would only worsen my writting because then whenever I write in his point of view I can't describe things in detail and use advanced vocabulary and writing him in that way won't fit the storyline. Yes he will still retain some of his usual characteristics over time. Naruto wouldn't be Naruto if he wasn't a bit boisterous and exuberant.

His personality will mostly be a mix of Menma Uzumaki, Menma Namikaze and his normal self.

-Sasuke is mostly the same but has some elements of his Road to Ninja self and he is less driven to evil. He is also more pragmatic.

-Sakura is actually skilled and mature and not behaving like a deranged fangirl half of the time. She has her own dreams and goals.

-Ino, Shikamaru and Chouji have undergone lost at an early age.

-Tenten has also undergone loss yet is still determined and has feminist qualities. Unlike in the anime she isn't a side character but has an important role. She has a lot of potential which was wasted in the anime.

-Hinata is like her The Last Movie self so she is more confident in herself. Yet is still shy and polite. She yearns for freedomand is very understanding and empathetic towards Naruto.

-Temari is more atune to her own feelings yet she will still be feisty and badass.

-Neji is more understanding and isn't changed much by Naruto but by Tenten and Hinata. He doesn't hate the main branch because he (not Hinata or Hanabi) is the heir due to the 99th law.

-Sai is changed by Ino not team 7.

-Lee is still Lee but isn't crazy over Sakura, heck he hasn't even met Sakura.

Thanks for enduring my rant if you have any questions or suggestions please pm me or comment.

Thanks for waiting while I sorted my life out I'm on a week long holiday and my exams/tests are finally over (I actually did well this term) so I can focus on this now.

I just started watching 2 new anime too, well not new but new to me....
