Well huge powerups in little time aren't all that bad, look at DBZ those happened all the time and i still loved the anime. The thing is that naruto is no goku, he went through half the series not having any talent at all and now of a sudden he just surpassesthe 4th, kakashi, jiraya, etc. That shit is just ludicrous .
