It's because it was never intended to be a "children's anime"... Kishimoto never intended for it to be for children, he just wrote it in a way that can be viewed by children so they can learn vital lessons whilst aging... However his true intention was for it to be for Adults too... We've all learnt so much from the teachings of Naruto, lessons that children wouldn't have been capable of learning at an early age.
Just graduated from med school in India and after doing residency here I am gonna try for usmle to get surgical residency but its really difficult for imgs to get surgical branch in usa but I will try my best. Best wishes to you my friend.
Thank you Rock Lee. When I was in middle school I started watching Naruto, I was obese and almost 300 pounds leading into my freshman year in high school. My body was unhealthy, my mental health was declining and worst of all, I stopped believing myself. Rock Lee’s story was a huge inspiration to me, and it even lead to me starting a new diet and working out... “You’re right, it is pointless, if you don’t believe in yourself.” -Might guy. Im proud to say I stayed true to my goal and I believed in the process of hard work. Im now at 180 pounds years later and Ive been able to maintain it and to this day I lift. Thank you Rock Lee, he deserved so much better in the show. We know you’re one of the greatest of all time.
This made me cry. Rock Lee taught me to persevere through everything, even when I felt like crying. I honestly wish Rock Lee was real he would be the bestest friend.
he may be a fictional character. but that doesn't mean he wasn't inspired by someone real. and just because he is fictional, it doesn't mean he cannot inspire others. you can make him a reality by becoming like him. if you are the type that never gives up and works hard to achieve their goals, others will think of you as a great friend.
For some it is easy to make that choice every day, for others it is harder. Choices are results of personality and personality is something you are born with. You can push some limits and work against them a little, but fundamentally you are only able to do what is within your personality potential, so perseverance is a legitimate gift, not a choice. Neji could also choose not to use his gifts the same way.
@ The ability to make a choice (whether it is easy or hard for you) is a talent; it is inborn and a gift. Not everyone can make a routine to the degree of Rock Lee, and that is a fact
@@SealMeall A choice means u can shape your own destiny. A choice is a choice, not a gift. Saying perseverance is a gift is the stupidest thing ever. If u said that to anyone successful in life they would laugh at you. It is a skill more than anything. And a skill implies choice, not 'gift'. There is nothing u can say which makes u right in this world about this. Ur world view is just wrong. End of. U are not born of 'perseverance' or not. It is mainly a choice and skill. Boom.
I've been a Rock Lee my whole life and I'm sure there are many like me who wish they would've had a Might Guy in their corner. When I watched Rock Lee hold his own against Gaara, even against the odds. The moment I saw him standing, even though he was out cold, is when I knew I wanted to be that. Anime has its moments when the meaning behind it cuts deeper than any blade. "Never apologize for trying hard, it's an insult to your determination"- Might Duy.
I fking relate to him. As an engineering student with a passion but 0 talent, I always wanna excel at my studies and build cooler projects while learning everything easily. But I feel like I was always challenged as it takes long for me to grasp a concept. That's why he'll always be my role model. No matter how hard you must train, you gotta pull ur shit together and try ur hardest.
Quick story, many years ago my nephews somehow convinced me to watch the first season of Naruto (I was never a fan of it) everything was going well until the infamous episode when Rock Lee fights Gaara. I was rooting so hard for my boy Lee but at the end, after trying so hard he still lost. I stopped watching Naruto and never again had the interest to continue watching it.
Seeing Lee struggle so hard just made me question why? Why doesn’t he just quit? Why doesn’t he just stop and let himself rest? Then I stopped and thought about it. THAT is what makes a person special in my eyes, that makes me want to root for whoever is struggling but NOT GIVING UP! Shit is BEAUTIFUL! 💯🙏🏼
what i learned is that life will throw many things at you, some are blessed with money and fancy things and some of us just barely getting by but our disadvantage will be our blessing in the future, we will learn things that the gifted will never get to learn and understand things that they wont ever understand. lets work hard, and believe in ourselves so that one day we may reach the light.
Rock lee showed me to always train hard , to believe in yourself , and to never give up!! I am the sharpest tool in the shed but i sure as hell am durable and strong
I relate to Lee so hard. I was small growing up relentlessly picked on and bullied. I started wrestling in middle school and worked myself until I became a monster.
He’s the reason I lost 80pounds the starting last two months of my freshman year up until the beginning of my sophomore year in high school cus of all the bullying. Bullying got worse because I was too skinny haha so I had to build muscle from scratch. Starting at 5’5 200 pounds > 5’5 124 pounds> now 6’2 210 pounds of pure muscle. Didn’t have no father figure around and Lee and gai sadly were my father figures
SUPER!!!!!!!! AMAZING work K! THANK YOU!!!!!!! (one edit i havent seen much of is of Colonel Roy Mustang (FMA) not that its a request but if your lookin for ideas😋)
However disappointed I was by the lack of Rock Lee's character development and him losing vs gaara , my cope is rock lee lost to shukaku, not gaara, if any other genin fought him at that point they'd lose, maybe except naruto cause of nine tails and plot armor. Rock lee for president.
Hahahaha, except it wasn't Shukaku. It was Gaara's abilities. In that arena, he probably would win against all others, maybe not against Shino. But on the next arena he could have be tricked by Naruto, and Neji wouldn't let him open the Gates after seeing what he can do.
I think gaara DID lose to rock Lee, because don’t forget, even without kurama awakening, Naruto had quicker then average healing from the 9 tailed fox super early in the series. I do think even without Shukaku awakening, gaara did have power that came from him. I think rock Lee would have won if gaara didn’t have shukaku
Gaara walked into the exams low kage level, there was literally no genin at the time that could challenge him at all except for Lee. Naruto needed Gaara in a situation where he can’t think properly and control his power and Gamabunta. Lee had everyone watching him wondering how what he’s doing is even remotely possible, it’s not about winning the fight at all tbh, people miss the point
" It's always if if , if my mom had balls she would be my dad so " max verstapen Guys I think the fact that lee lost against Gaara make his story just more incredible . It's a part of the journey like the risk of Never becoming a ninja it's make the all just better
I can see that a lot of people were disappointed when lee lost to gaara, but I say that’s the beauty of it. This fccing anime relates to everyone at that certain point in our lives because in reality a lot of us deal with muthffking hardwork whilst how lee whooped gaara, that’s how his hardwork showed. The ride through it all while everyone was watching. But still life’s a b*tch and in the end he still lost. It’s a bitter sweet ending. But hey We all die in the end.
Moments like these is why a man who was called , do you know who*insert my name* is is the height of being a looser is a surgeon . My talent is delusional perseverance. I'd rather die than give in to temporary failures . Don't believe me give me time then .
I’ve always wanted to surpass him when it came to strength and mass. I tried my best and I never got to overcome them. Always struggling right behind them. Then I found out they were doing roids for the last few years. They were no longer my rival. But just a friend.
you want to know what's funny? alot of people miss out on a interesting point with both lee and naruto and that's they both taught a gifted genius a life lesson. Some say lee was a wasted character who never got his point across while others say naruto isn't a hardworker and was handed his powers but that's not true at all did people forget one of Lee's introduction fight was against an uchiha genius sasuke? that fight ended with sasuke getting his ass kicked and that's when sasuke was made to realize he hadn't been putting in enough effort to get stronger so after that fight he actually started training harder lee proved hard work can beat out natural talent in that fight. With Naruto he was able to prove to neji that hardwork can in fact change your life for the better and as a result neji got off of hinata and the main branches' ass and became more mellowed out about his family even repairing his broken relationship with his cousin who actually loved and cared about him back. Both of these guy's ended up changing a genius through hard work it was just that they switch with each other's rival
My wife always get jealous of my talents in music and sports because she has no talent to speak of. I always have to remind her that you don’t need to be talented to be successful. I remind her that she has strong work ethic and has persevered to get where she is in her career. I also remind her that despite my talent in music… I am still a terrible dancer 🙃
in the end, practice can make a fine man but genetic bloodright and birthright may pose superior threats...regardless of the work effort of some. Lee was right in a way. but that didn't mean he shouldn't have stopped working at it. and neither should you
realistically in the time of the chunin exams yes rock lee was the strongest genin, till the creator put his ass on the sideline to never be useful again p.s. rock lee could have beat gara with just opening the first gate him taking off his weights alone was enough to get past his sand and start working down gaaras armor
This fight wasnt good cause of the choreography it was becsuse rock lee with nothing but taijutsu and hardwork and gaara all talent never working in his life lee lost the fight but won are hearts
Its crazy the type of life lessons you can find in a "children's anime" 20 yrs later im still reflecting
It's because it was never intended to be a "children's anime"...

Perseverance is not a gift. It is a choice that must be made each and every day. Follow your hearts kings and queens.
It's a gift chosen by us
For some it is easy to make that choice every day, for others it is harder. Choices are results of personality and personality is something you are born with.

Underrated
Hard work beats out natural talent 💪💪
what about hard work + natural talent
Not in Naruto.
what about sasuke defeating gaara?
What happens when natural talent works hard ?
Yeah but unfortunately the full phrase is hard work beats talent...when talent doesnt work hard but when talent works hard..
Hard work beats talent when talent dont work hard
Talent usually don't want to)
I've been a Rock Lee my whole life and I'm sure there are many like me who wish they would've had a Might Guy in their corner.

I am sooooo sorry that we never got to see Lee shining. He was almost forgotten in shippuuden. I like his character and would love to see more of him
You are right. All efforts are pointless if you don't believe in yourself ✊
Keep going Rock Lee. You are the epitome of what it means to never give up and believe in yourself. For YOU....are a TRUE GENIUS OF EFFORT
Obsession will always beat talent
I fking relate to him. As an engineering student with a passion but 0 talent, I always wanna excel at my studies and build cooler projects while learning everything easily. But I feel like I was always challenged as it takes long for me to grasp a concept. That's why he'll always be my role model.

I was rooting so hard for my boy Lee but at the end, after trying so hard he still lost. I stopped watching Naruto and never again had the interest to continue watching it.
Fair enough
sad, so 1 set back is enough? Are shows good only if everything works out first time? Where is character development?
@olekzgoralski8400 Well, rock Lee gets any development in shipudden so it doesn't really matter
I suggest you watch your boy in the upcoming episodes too, he might not be a winner buy he is definitely a fighter , a fighter who never gives up.
Come back bro, Finnish the rest of Naruto before boruto 2 comes out
Bro is like: THUNDER BREATHING, FIRST FORM...
Seeing Lee struggle so hard just made me question why? Why doesn’t he just quit? Why doesn’t he just stop and let himself rest? Then I stopped and thought about it. THAT is what makes a person special in my eyes, that makes me want to root for whoever is struggling but NOT GIVING UP! Shit is BEAUTIFUL! 💯🙏🏼
In any other manga/anime, Rock Lee would've been a protagonist. I wish, instead of Boruto Kishimoto sensei had worked on a Rock Lee spin-off.
he has a mini spin off i think. but yeah itd be dope if we had a full version
what i learned is that life will throw many things at you, some are blessed with money and fancy things and some of us just barely getting by but our disadvantage will be our blessing in the future, we will learn things that the gifted will never get to learn and understand things that they wont ever understand. lets work hard, and believe in ourselves so that one day we may reach the light.
Very well articulated...thank you
Rock lee showed me to always train hard , to believe in yourself , and to never give up!! I am the sharpest tool in the shed but i sure as hell am durable and strong
The power-up all the charachter getting in boruto vortex, make all of training and work of naruto gen folks usless.
I relate to Lee so hard. I was small growing up relentlessly picked on and bullied. I started wrestling in middle school and worked myself until I became a monster.
Rock Lee!! You are living proof that practice beats talent!!
Great things takes time😊😊
The fact in the end raw talent beat trying hard. This was rock lees best moment and he still lost. They really did my boy dirty.
He’s the reason I lost 80pounds the starting last two months of my freshman year up until the beginning of my sophomore year in high school cus of all the bullying.

One of the best fight in Naruto - Gara vs Rock lee
Lee and Naruto..best Idols
I can see that a lot of people were disappointed when lee lost to gaara, but I say that’s the beauty of it.

He should’ve had more screen time in the second season. Lee must’ve been on of the key characters as he is a great inspiration just as Might Guy
I aint going to compete with them..
Splendid
Very inspirational.. hard work does beat raw talent.. however what happens when raw talent works hard..?
I'm gonna prepare for ssc exam
Moments like these is why a man who was called , do you know who*insert my name* is is the height of being a looser is a surgeon . My talent is delusional perseverance. I'd rather die than give in to temporary failures . Don't believe me give me time then .
This guy is no joke, he splits jubidara into half
Hard work only beats natural talent of the naturally talented don't put in effort
The "忍" Kanji from words "shinobi" and "ninja" means to conceal, but also means to endure, or "persevere."
↪Talent with Hardwork Beats Hardwork🔥
↪Hardwork Beats Talents🔥
goosebumps
Considering that after battle with Gaaram, Lee stopped being very relevant is the proof that talent does beat work if it works too.
Tenten glazing always makes me laugh
Nice
Thank you for your effort in making this masterpiece!

nah you trippin naruto had it harder

Still one of the best animes ever but this character was fumbled so bad
He quirkiness is his trademark he is done so well
Can you make one abt neji now?
Oh Mary 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
beautiful
Yes it true hard work beat talent but when u talent an work hard it = greatness so combine both of them together an it should be you vs greatness
I am not supertallented guy infact I am most average type of guy but I say it on my bloodline nobody in my field will outwork me.

I'm like Rock Lee without Sensei Guy
They had such a good message, effort beats tallent when tallent foesnt put in effort. Then they screwed it all up.
Song ?
Didn't lee lose that fight though?
Go ahead and outwork me bro, you won't even have to try that hard.
in the end, practice can make a fine man but genetic bloodright and birthright may pose superior threats...regardless of the work effort of some. Lee was right in a way. but that didn't mean he shouldn't have stopped working at it. and neither should you
Training is NOTHING
Will Power is EVERYTHING
yeah and neji is dead and lee is alive. Moving on
😮😮😮😮😮😮
So annoying how they didn’t flesh out rock lee’s character in shippudden. If written right he could be a main character.
Why boys didn't give up easily
You can spend your whole life working on projects that only fail. Work all you want if it’s not on the right things it’s a WASTE
In the end Lee won. NEJI GOT CLAPPED 😂
U see another what the? 😔
I believe in le More than i believe in naji
Rock Lee gano a Gaara y despues el poder del guión tubo que entrometerse en la historia.
