My top 10 Keyblades in Kingdom Hearts

With Kingdom Hearts 3 getting closer and closer everyday, I thought that, for these next few entries, I'd devote them to it and do a few of them surrounding the series. And by that, I mean I'm gonna make a few lists devoted to it. Especially now that I'm playing Kingdom Hearts 1.5 + 2.5. And starting that off is this. My top 10 favourite Keyblades in the whole series. The Keyblade is my favourite weapon ever and so I'm going to use this entry to count down my 10 favourites in all the games. They're so many in all these games, but I managed to think about it enough to come up with my own top 10 favourites. And so, let's begin and I hope you all enjoy.
10. The Zero/One Key:

Starting us off is the final Keyblade you get in Kingdom Hearts: Re:Coded. You get this when you go to Castle Oblivion at the end. It's really strong, as t be expected from the final one you'd get. And, just like all the other final Keyblades you get, it's really strong and colours are cool on it with it kinda reminiscing the Kingdom Key, especially the Mickey Mouse head keychain. And if you use the "Tree" part right in the game with this Keyblade, it becomes really strong.
9. The Divine Rose Key:

Near the end of the first Kingdom Hearts game. When you go to Hollow Bastion the second time, you can find Belle in the Library and she'll give it to you. It's so strong and so cool looking. Especially the way the purple colour is used on it. And I also love it in Kingdom Hearts: Union X where it's one of my strongest Keyblades there and when you constantly level it up, and when it gets to a specific level, it changes its look again and it looks so cool.
8. The Oathkeeper Key:

The first Roxas Keyblade on this is the Oathkeeper. You technically first get this Keyblade in the first Kingdom Hearts game when you talk to Kairi in Traverse Town near the end. And it's so awesome. It has this silver colour, which is already cool, but I also love the keychain which is Kairi's good luck charm she gives Sora and he promises to return it, hence why it's called the "Oathkeeper." In Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days, Roxas gets it when Xion disappears and in Kingdom Hearts 2, you get it when you find out Axel took Kairi. And I love the teeth of it which is like a star with a blue, purple and gold colour. I'm mainly putting it here because of Kairi. She's such a great character, and I think this is a great Keyblade to have a memory of her with Sora, almost like it's a way of showing that she's still always with him.
7. The Oblivion Key:

The other one of the Roxas Keyblades is the Oblivion. This one is so cool and powerful. It has a black colour to kinda represent Darkness a little, but the rest is awesome too with a chain going along it with a purple jewel in it. There's also bat wings going around the hilt and I love the crown key chain which looks just like Sora's necklace. In Kingdom Hearts 1, when you go to Hollow Bastion the second time and you go into the room where the Door To Darkness, if you go onto the side and climb the stairs, you'll see a little capsule that looks like the one that the princesses were in, which I'm pretty sure was what Kairi was supposed to be in, you'll see a treasure chest and that's where you get it there. In Kingdom Hearts 2, you get it as soon as you reunite with Riku and Kairi and in Kingdom Hearts: Re:Coded, you get it as finish Hollow Bastion. It just looks so cool, strong and I love the use of it too when you fight with it.
6. The Starlight Key:

The only Keyblade on this list that's from Kingdom Hearts: Union X, because this is the only one that originated from there. But this Keyblade is so cool. It sorta represents the Kingdom Key by looking a lot like it at the start and then as you evolve it more, it becomes much cooler looking and so much stronger. I love the way it looks every time you evolve it. I also love the design of the teeth with it looking like an actual star. And I love the gold colour all around it too.
5. The Kingdom Key D:

At number 5 is the Realm of Darkness's Keyblade, the Kingdom Key D. When King Mickey and Aqua were going through the Realm of Darkness, King Mickey found this Keyblade as a way to close the Door To Darkness. And it's so cool because the reverse colour of the regular Kingdom Key, the blade is gold and the piece around the hilt is silver. It's great because it's being used by an awesome character like King Mickey. If you get to play as him in Kingdom Hearts 2, you get to use this and it's so amazing. And the reason it's called the Kingdom Key D is because the D stands for Darkness.
4. The Kingdom Key:

Speaking of the Kingdom Key, here it is at number 4. Being held by Sora himself, this is his main weapon and it looks phenomenal. It's also kind of a simple design. It's got a silver blade with a gold piece surrounding a black hilt with a silver key chain of King Mickey's head. Almost like it's symbolising that King Mickey is always with Sora. But even with that, I mainly put it here because it's the most iconic weapon in the whole series.
3.The Ultima Weapon:

The Ultima Weapon is a monster. And I don't mean that in strength, which it definitely is, but I'm mainly talking about how to get it. Especially in the first Kingdom Hearts. You have to put in so many hours and synthesize over 30 items to get it. It's ridiculous how much you have you put it. In Kingdom Hearts 2, it was better because it wasn't as annoying, but still. In Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep, you have to do all the Mirage Arena challenges and in Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance, you have defeat Julius. When you get it, it becomes so satisfying and it's so strong. I like the one from Kingdom Hearts 1 the most because it looks the coolest and it's more satisfying when you finally get it. It was so satisfying when I finally got it.
2. The Fenrir Key:

One that I never hear people talk about is the Fenrir Key. In Kingdom Hearts 2, when you beat Sephiroth, you have to go to Cloud and tell him where he is and then after the cutscene, Tifa gives it to you. I love the design of it with it looking like Cloud's Buster Sword while still being it's own thing and still being like a Keyblade. I love it and it becomes so useful when you have to do things like going to the Coliseum and doing a bunch of the tournaments. It can also make the final boss with Xemnas feel much faster and much more manageable. It's just a super strong Keyblade. I love it. It is so strong.
And my number 1 favourite Keyblade is... The Unbound Key:

And finally at number 1 is the Unbound Key from Dream Drop Distance. This might be the strongest Keyblade in the whole series. In Dream Drop Distance, once you've completed all the bosses a second time by going to their portals you get this Keyblade for both Sora and Riku once you do both of them. And it's design is amazing. It's teeth are always glowing, it has this sorta bulky size with the blade, it has two crowns on it like above the hilt and the Keychain. And I love how, whenever I go through the worlds in Dream Drop Distance and if I have this one, which I always do, I can just do one swing at the Dream Eaters and that'll destroy them. It's also great to use Firaga Burst, which is also what I always use because using those two things, I can destroy everything and it makes everything so much easier and faster. And all that is why the Unbound Key is my favourite Keyblade in all of Kingdom Hearts. And so everyone, that's my top 10 favourite Keyblades in all of Kingdom Hearts. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think or tell me what your favourite is if you like Kingdom Hearts too.

13 Organization XIII members ranked

Organization XIII are, in my opinion, some of the best villains in all of video game history. And so, with that, and Kingdom Hearts 3 presumably going to have the new Organization be the villains, I thought today I would look at the original Organization and rank all 13. Note, I am sticking with 13. So I'm not counting Xion because she was never really a member. If you've played the games, then you know what I mean. Also, I'm putting the characters here in order of how they are as characters. Not in boss fights or anything like that, just how I like them as characters themselves. And so, let's begin and I hope you all like this.
13. Zexion:

Starting us off at number 13 is the book armed, emo, magic wielding member of the Organization. I think I mainly put Zexion on here because there really isn't much to him. He's not bad, but, when compared to the other members of the Organization, I think he's just the least interesting and we don't really get anything from him. He also seems to be a lot like Ansem with Riku because his whole real motive is to get Riku to turn to the darkness again. And really, like I said, even though he's not bad, I think that out of all the Organization members, he's just the one I like the least and found the least interesting.
12. Luxord:

Next to Zexion, Luxord is on the list this low because I think he's the one we know the least about. On top of that, again, like I just said, there's not really anything to him. I think he's at number 12 and not 13 because he's a little cooler and he does come off as a bit more intimidating. But still, there isn't a thing to him and I have a weird feeling that they made him so they could have another member for the Organization.
11. Xaldin:

Again, even though I said at the beginning that I wouldn't put the characters here by boss fights, I have to say, this guy puts up one huge fight. And, unlike the other two I've already mentioned, he actually does have some kinda backstory behind him. His real name is Dilian who was a guard of the castle at Radiant Garden until Xehanort opened his heart and he because Xaldin. And he's a really cool villain in Beast's Castle in Kingdom Hearts 2.
10. Lexaeus:

Now we get into the awesome members of the Organization. Lexaeus is the strongest member of the Organization. And I don't mean by power, I mean by brute strength. In Chain of Memories, he's kinda like what Zexion was trying to do with trying to make Riku turn to the darkness again. But he does it in more cooler ways and more brawn ways. It's awesome. Speaking of which, his death was also really cool and kinda brutal. Riku uses the power of darkness and just cuts him right down the middle. That was so cool.
And it was also cool when we saw in Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep that he was a Radiant Garden guard as well named Aeleus.
9. Vexen:

At number 9 I have the scientist of the Organization, Vexen. This guy was the reason behind the Replica Riku in Chain of Memories and was kinda the reason for the split that Sora believed was happening between the two of them when he was fighting the replica. And he's a really entertaining villain too. Like when him and Larxene are sort insulting each other constantly. But I also liked his scenes of trying to almost explain things kinda wisely because he's a scientist so he always tried his best to do a lot of experiments. The scenes like that were ones I really liked.
8. Marluxia:

Next up is the main villain, I suppose, of Chain of Memories. Marluxia was actually recently added to Kingdom Hearts: Union X and it was shown that he was around during the times of the Keyblade War and when Ven was still around. But even before that, in Chain of Memories, he was the one who was manipulating Naminé and was ordering her to mess with Sora's memories. And that final boss with him was such a great way to end Sora's part of the game.
7. Demyx:

One of few Organization members to have a personality, this ‎Sitar playing, water wielder is one of most entertaining, as said by a lot of people. In Kingdom Hearts 2, he kinda comes off as a sorta wimpy guy who doesn't really like to fight, which is kinda ironic considering he's one of the hardest bosses in Kingdom Hearts 2. But's also kinda funny with some of his wimpy scenes and I liked all the stuff with him trying to talk to Sora, but he's really trying to talk to Roxas. Like that scene in the Underworld, that was pretty funny.
6. Larxene:

Out of all the Organization members, Larxene is probably the most despicable. Where to even begin? She's constantly taunting Sora about Naminé, threatened to break the lucky charm he though she gave him, throws constant insults to everyone, does nothing but want to make everyone miserable and even tried to help with blackmailing Naminé with Sora's memories. She always so horrible and mean to everyone 100%. And then seeing her disappear when you fight her a second time was so satisfying.
5. Saïx:

At number 5 is sorta the right hand man to Xemnas. In Kingdom Hearts 2, he was like this guy who just wanted to use Sora to get more hearts so they could complete their own Kingdom Hearts. And in Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days, he was sorta trying to manipulate Roxas by making his life doubtful. That's not really what he was doing, but that's what it almost kinda came across to me. But in 358/2 Days, he was the guy giving Roxas all these missions and sending him off to retrieve hearts. But you could tell there was something he was trying to achieve something else as well. At least, that what I thought because, to me, it felt like he was also trying to get ahead of everyone and make everyone doubtful. If you've played the game, you might know what I mean. But, before any of that, he was actually a guy named Isa who was friends with Axel/Lea, when they were younger until their hearts were opened too.
4. Xemnas:

Next on the list is the leader of the original Organization and the only one we saw since the first Kingdom Hearts game, Xemnas. Being the Nobody to Xehanort, he has unbelievable power and strength. In the first game he was just a mysterious guy in a black cloak. But then as we progressed through the series, we saw that, not only was he the leader of the Organization, but also the Nobody to the main villain of the series. And he really does come off as really cool and intimidating. At the end of Kingdom Hearts 2, Sora and the others do everything they can to beat him. He has such amazing power and he can do things like lift and throw skyscrapers, make lasers appear in his hands like weapons and even shoot them from his hand and he has the respect of almost every member of the Organization.
3. Xigbar:

Another Organization member who has some backstory behind him, Xigbar is a member who's always trying to be a smart-aleck with everything he says. But he was originally a traitor guard in Radiant Garden in Birth By Sleep. It was like Xehanort found him, hired him to make it look like he took him captive and in exchange, he probably thought he would get a Keyblade out of it for himself because he says he wanted one. And then he sorta went back to Radiant Garden after he was in the Keyblade Graveyard. And so, I think it would be cool to fight him again in Kingdom Hearts 3 since he's now one of the 13 Seekers of Darkness.
2. Roxas:

Coming in close to number 1 is the Nobody of the main hero, Roxas. After Sora freed his heart, Roxas was also created, but, because Ven's heart was also inside him, that's why he looks like him. And after wandering around Twilight Town for a while, Xemnas found him and brought him into the Organization because he was Sora's Nobody which allowed him to use the Keyblade himself. After befriending Axel and Xion, he was settling down in the Organization. But after a while with things seeming a little off and things not seeming to be right, he began to have doubts. And after betraying the Organization, he set out to find Sora to get Xion back and put everything back to the way it was. But when Riku found and stopped him, he was brought to another Twilight Town with his memory changed and now thinking he was just a regular guy until something seemed off there and then after some convincing, he finally returned to Sora and he vanished. And I love the scene when he finally does return to him.
Roxas himself almost seems kinda complex in places and he's not the easiest to get along with. And I like how he doesn't exactly copy Sora in terms of personality, so he can kinda be his own character. Not, my favourite member of the Organization, but still a good character and one that you may even feel sorry for in places.
1. Axel:

And finally at number 1 is the best friend of Roxas and the one who saved Sora in Dream Drop Distance, as well as one of my favourite characters in the whole series, Axel. Before he was a Nobody, he was a guy named Lea with Saïx when he was still Isa. But when he was in the Organization, he was sorta by himself for a while until Roxas came and they became best friends. After he left and forgot about everything, Axel did everything he could to try to get him back. And after kidnapping Kairi in an attempt to get Sora to release Roxas, he ended up helping Sora which caused his Nobody body to disappear. That helped him get back to normal and then he saved Sora again from Xehanort. He was trying to wield a Keyblade himself and he finally got one as we saw in the end of Dream Drop Distance. And, as we saw in Kingdom Hearts 0.2, it looks like him and Kairi have got to Merlin to try to learn how to use their Keyblades properly. Being a wise cracker all the time, Axel is one of the most entertaining characters in the whole series. I love this character and he is still one of my favourite in the whole game series. I can't wait to see what his role is like in Kingdom Hearts 3. And so everyone, that's my ranking of all Organization XIII members in Kingdom Hearts. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below or, if you like Kingdom Hearts too, please tell me who your favourite is or tell me how you'd rank them.

New Thor: Ragnarok posters and ad spot

With Thor: Ragnarok in cinemas in less than 2 months to now, we're getting more stuff about the movie and today we got a new small ad for it. It seems, really funny and this movie is still coming off as really interesting to me. And so do the new posters we got are just as cool too. I'm still looking forward to it and this has me even more excited. And so, here they are.

My top 10 storylines in Naruto

Like every manga series out there, Naruto runs on storyline in it's actual plot to keep going and make a coherent plot. And a lot of them turn out really fun and exciting, while most of the fillers are, well, that, just filler that don't serve anything to the plot itself. And so I thought I would count down my favourite storylines from the entirety of the Naruto story. And also, I'll be talking about the manga, not the shows because they're different with the show adding filler to it. They're both the same story, but they're different shows. And so this will be talking about everything. And as I'm going to be talking about each one so it might feel like I'm explaining the whole plot, but, y'know, whatever. And so, let's begin and I hope you all enjoy.
10. The Asuma Avenge Mission: Starting us of is a mission much later in the series. After Asuma is killed by Hidan and Kaukuzu from the Akatsuki, Shikamaru, Choji and Ino set out to find them and avenge their sensei. While that's going on, Naruto is busy training with Yamato and Kakashi to learn the Rasen-Shuriken jutsu. The reason this is here is because of how heart-warming it is, which is something a lot of these are. They're heart-warming and heart-crushing at the same time. And in this case, it's heart-breaking to see Asuma die and watching the effect it's leaving on everyone, but it's also nice to see Shikamaru, Choji and Ino going through all this to avenge him. It was especially sad to see Kurenai's reaction to it too. And then the ending with them fighting them and then Naruto appearing at the last second to use his new jutsu is awesome and really awesome.

9. The Gaara Rescue Mission: And now we go to the first mission at the start of part 2 of the manga. After Deidara and Sasori kidnap Gaara and drain him of the One Tail, Naruto, Sakura, Kakashi and Team 9 go after them in an attempt to save him along with another Sand shinobi, Chiyo. And this is a more personal thing for Naruto because he wants to rescue Gaara, not just because they're friends, but also because of the fact that they're both Jinchuuriki and so he understands perfectly his pain so he wants to help them because of that connection they both have. And the ending to it could almost make you cry with it looking like Gaara's really dead but then Chiyo dies to bring him back.

8. The Great Naruto Bridge Mission: Now we go to the very beginning. This was Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura's first real mission in the first part of the story. After Naruto demands for a hard mission to go on, the Third Hokage allows them to bring an old man back to the Hidden Mist village. However, along the way, they get ambushed by a man named Zabuza who's one of the seven ninja swordsmen of the Mist. With him after them in an attempt to kill the man so he can't finish the bridge he's constructing, they have to do everything they can to protect him. This mission has so many things in it that are all integral to the show itself. It has a heart-warming and heart-breaking story, it's the first time we see Naruto using Kurama's power, it's the first time we see Naruto and Sasuke's actual friendship showing any signs and it's the first time we got some pretty brutal and intense fight scenes. But ever with that, the story's also pretty slow so we can learn about these people and you even feel really sorry for Zabuza and Haku in this.

7. The Revenge Story: Going back to the part 2 story, this is what Sasuke's ark was building up to. It's Sasuke vs. Itachi and there's a lot building up to this. For one, there was all the stuff in part 1 with Sasuke for it then in the actually story we see Sasuke absorb Orochimaru, forming team Hebi, him fighting against Deidara, Naruto and his friends setting out to hopefully find him and, of course the actual show down between the two brothers. And the actually fight between them is one of my favourite in the show and I loved how right after the fight and after Itachi died, you learn everything about him from Obito explaining all the truth about Itachi to Sasuke. That was great, but, again, the best part of it for is the actual fight between the two of them.

6. The Tsunade Retrieval Mission: One of the more interesting and slower stories from the original, in my opinion, is this one where Naruto and Jiraiya are sent to a town to find Tsunade and bring her back to the village to become the next Hokage. And, yeah, it is all that. And I love it for that. We get to see Itachi and Kisame for the first time, as well as the Akatsuki in general, Naruto is training to learn the Rasengan, we focus a lot on Tsunade emotional struggle and how so many things are rushing through her head and how she's almost considering taking Orochimaru's offer. And the whole relationship with Tsunade and Jiraiya is also interesting because you can tell that there's a lot of history behind them and how they both know that something up, even if Tsunade's not being too thoughtful about any of this. But, in my opinion, the best part is the ending of it with Naruto, Tsunade, Jiraiya and Shinzune against Orochimaru. And, of course Naruto using the Rasengan, which is just an awesome moment on it's own. It's especially cool at the end when Jiraiya, Tsunade and Orochimaru use their summons and it's like a huge awesome giant monster fight.

5. The Chūnin Exam: Even with an anime like this, there bound to be some kinda test like this. And for me, this has to be the most fun exam I've ever seen. When Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura get back from fighting Zabuza and Haku, they're entered in the Chūnin Exam. And in that, we get to see a ton of things play out. Like, we get to see a lot of new characters from the academy, there's the second part where they're in the forest, they fight Orochimaru and the three Sound ninja, we see them in the third part in the battles and we see Sasuke getting the Curse Mark. And from all that, we get some of the series' best moments like the three of them in the forest, which is a lot of fun, plus, we get to see a ton battles take place and there's not one that's boring. All of them are creative and super enjoyable. Especially the actual Chūnin Exam fights like Naruto vs. Kiba. But the whole forest part is the best part for me for being so much fun.

Image result for naruto vs kiba
4. The Destruction Of The Leaf: This one picks up right where the last one left off. After Naruto trains with Jiraiya for the first time, we start the next matches in the Chūnin Exam with Naruto vs. Neji, Shikamaru vs. Temari and Sasuke vs. Gaara. But then it's interrupted by Orochimaru's attack on the Leaf Village with him and the other Sound ninja teaming up with the Sand ninja. And all of them attack the village with Naruto, Sakura and Shikamaru going after Sasuke, Gaara, Temari and Kankuro. And from this, we see the first big war like thing in the show. And we get a lot of really great moments like the whole fight against Naruto and Gaara, the Third Hokage vs. Orochimaru, the whole war like fight with the Leaf ninja vs. the Sound and Sand ninja and the actual Chūnin Exam fights where we get a lot more character development like to Neji, which is great. I love seeing scenes like that where we learn more about the characters because that makes them so much more interesting. But, we also learn about Gaara and the connection him and Naruto have with both of them having a Tailed Beast inside them, and it's kinda sad to watch because, then, you understand both of their ideologies and thoughts on what's happened to them in their pasts.
Image result for naruto vs neji

3. The Leaf's Pain: Now we come to, maybe, the biggest one that happened in the series to that point. This is right after Jiraiya dies from fighting Pain, and so Naruto is sent to learn Sage jutsu in a hope to fight and defeat Pain himself. But, before he arrives, the rest of the village have to try to fight him themselves. And when he does finally get there, it some of the best fighting in the whole series and ton of stuff happens. You get to see him in Sage Mode for the first time, he does tons of jutsus, we see just how strong Pain is, it looks like Hinata's dead which activates Kurama's chakra inside him and he goes nuts on him, we see that the Fourth Hokage is his dad, we see Naruto at some of his best when he's able to reach Nagato and change his perspective on things and then there's the actual revival of the Leaf when everything is put back to normal and almost everyone comes back to life. And I love the scene with Naruto and Nagato because it does so much for both of their characters. We get to see Naruto progress more as a character and see more of hi human side when he's talking to him and we see more of his perspective on the world with war and hatred. And I love that about him, The fact that, while he is just a teenagers and despite his tough past, he's still willing to save everyone that cares about him and it's a nice scene right after that when we see the village cheering him on. And it's especially really nice seeing that and remembering his childhood. Thinking that and seeing that happen, I think, makes it that much more satisfying and a really nice scene.

2. The Sasuke Retrieval Mission: Like I said in my review of the original Naruto show, this is what part one of the series was building up to. After Sasuke abandons the village to gain power from Orochimaru because of the persuading by the Sound Ninja Four, and especially after seeing how far Naruto's come. And so as he's being escorted there by them in a coffin to let his new powers set in, Naruto, Shikamaru, Kiba, Choji and Neji go after him with each of them fighting a member of the four themselves. While on that, Lee, Gaara, Kankuro and Temari show up to help them and seeing them pop up to save them is such an awesome scene. And I love how we get a lot more characters like how we sorta get flashbacks for the characters during the fights. But, on top of that, all the fight scenes are clever, well thought out and there's also quite a lot of scheming in some of them like Shikamaru using his usual intelligence to think his way out of the situation and Kidomaru when he's fighting Neji. And I love the quest of all this and the journey. It's all so much fun and so entertaining from start to finish. And as we get to the end of it, Naruto vs. Sasuke is my favourite fight scene in part 1. It's all super fun, intense and even quite brutal. All the fight scenes in this mission are brutal, especially Neji's fight. I love this storyline and I love the concept of the this quest as I said.






And my number 1 favourite storyline in Naruto is... The Fourth Great Ninja War: And finally at number 1 is the final story in the entire Naruto story. Like I said in my review, this is what the entire series was building up to. It everyone vs. Madara and Obito and from that, a ton of stuff happens and there's things happening every second. We finally know that Tobi is actually Obito, Neji dies, Sasuke helps out and Team 7 is back together, dead people are brought back to life and so many of them get a lot to do, Madara uses the Infinite Tsukuyomi, Black Zetsu is revealed to be the one that actually did cause everything in the series to happen to revive Kaguya, who's actually the main villain of the series and we get an awesome fight scene with Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura and Kakashi vs. her and Black Zetsu.

It looks like Naruto and Sasuke die but then the Sage of the Six Paths saves them, the old Hokage are brought back and help them, it looks like Sasuke is still a villain when he traps the Tailed Beasts, we see Naruto and Kurama at max power together, we get one last fight scene between Naruto and Sasuke, Sasuke turns good again and we see his redemption, he and Naruto free everyone from Madara's Genjutsu, Sasuke leaves the village to really get redemption and then we skip ahead years later and we see them all grown up with children of their own like Naruto and Hinata have Boruto and Himawari, Sasuke and Sakura have Sarada and so on and so forth. That's a lot to do in the ending of anime series, but I think it worked fantastically. I know a lot of people don't really like the ending because they don't like how the main villain constantly changes as I said before, but I still like it and everyone, no matter who they are, all have things to do here. That's something Masashi Kishimoto does so well. He can have it where there's a plot going on, but he can make it so that everyone involved has a fair amount of things to do. No one ever feels side lined. But he can also have it where it never loses track that Naruto is still the focus. But, also, the fights are all amazing, there's never one where you're not glued to the screen. And, like I said, the final fight with Naruto vs. Sasuke might be my favourite fight in the whole series. It starts off with them both using massive amounts of chakra and jutsus on each other and then it's just hand to hand combat and it is so brutal when it gets to that point.

And I'm always super entertained with this storyline. Even though it hasn't finished being dubbed yet, I still watch it with English subtitles on YouTube and I'm going to get the manga of it too when it comes to the 3 in 1 manga that I'm collecting with the entirety of the Naruto mangas. And so everyone, those are my picks for my top 10 favourite storylines in Naruto. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think or, if you like Naruto too, please tell me your favourite.

My top 5 movies of the year so far 2017

So last year I did a list around this same time of my top 5 favourite movies I'd seen that up at that point. And since that was viewed by a lot of people, I assume they musta liked it. So I'm going to do another one right here and now for this year. Obviously, like last year, I'm going to be making a top 10 list counting all the movies of the year I've, but for now I'm going with 5 films I've seen this year and ranking them to my favourite. And so, let's begin.
5. Wonder Woman: Starting us off is the DC.E.U movie that came out just a few months ago that is finally not a divisive movie like the others were. And this movie was so much fun from start to finish as well as funny. It was also great to finally get a DC movie on the big screen that wasn't just Batman or Superman. And seeing how it was Wonder Woman, as in the most famous superheroine of al time, yeah, that made it even more exciting if you ask me. Gal Gadot and Chris Pine were fantastic a lot of fun to watch with lots of awesome action scenes and great performances all around.
4. The Lego Batman Movie: This is a movie I haven't mentioned before, but early on in the year I saw the Lego Batman movie with my brother and sister. We all had a blast with it. It was super funny, the animation is fantastic, the lines are great and quotable. It's super self-aware and it poke fun at Batman in really clever ways. The voice cast is outstanding and all really funny. And, surprisingly enough, there's also some pretty heartfelt moments too. Nothing that's gonna make you cry, but still. Overall, the Lego Batman movie is extremely funny, well animated and well written and I highly recommend it.
3. Logan: At number 3 is the final performance of Wolverine by Hugh Jackman and the first real X-Men movie to be R-Rated. This movie was the first Wolverine movie to be amazing. While it may not be my favourite X-Men movie, this was still really enjoyable all the way through with really heart breaking moments. And while there was a little bit of fun in there, it was very small. This was a dark and violent movie with very little hope for these characters. And the thing about this is that you didn't need to be a fan of the X-Men movies to be sad about this. Even a person watching this without the others can still see that these are characters that have been doing a lot of amazing things but now they're far past their prime and now they're just trying to live the rest of their lives. But even with that, this was still a super awesome movie with really amazing action scenes and amazing acting from everyone. And it was the proper send off to Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart from this franchise. And it was also a nice send off to such an iconic character like Wolverine. If you've seen the movie, than you know what I'm talking about.
2. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2: Now this is my opinion coming into play here because a lot of people, actually the majority of people, don't like this movie very. They do really like it, they just don't think it's truly incredible. And, while I don't know if I can say it truly, I think I liked it more than most people did. I had a lot of fun with this movie and it was really funny. And, unlike some people who saw this, I actually did like the way they fleshed out the characters more and how they did it. Sure, the movie's not perfect and there are things in it like pacing issues, but I still had a lot of fun with it and I'm glad I got it on DVD yesterday. Also, unlike Logan, which was a great movie, I actually had fun with this movie instead of kinda feeling sad and depressed.
And my number 1 favourite movie of the year so far is... Spider-Man: Homecoming: Was there any doubt? Of course the most fun I've had with a movie so far this year has come from the M.C.U debut of my favourite superhero of all time, as well as one of my favourite characters of all time. And this was the perfect portrayal of Spider-Man on the big screen. Tom Holland knocked it out of the park as the character and is easily my favourite Spider-Man/Peter Parker ever. Also, on that, I've gotta say, this movie is the first movie where I truly relate to Peter Parker. I never really related to the others, but this, yeah, this I definitely relate to. When Peter goes to the party for the first time or tries to socialise with other people like girls or something or gets upset about messing up something, yeah, I've been there too. And I think that helped with me enjoying the movie too. But, besides him, the rest of the cast is amazing, like I said in my review Jacob Batalon is fantastic and hilarious as Ned. And the Vulture is easily one of the best villains in the M.C.U portrayed amazingly by Michael Keaton. The movie is also hilarious, easily one of the funniest M.C.U movies ever and this is easily one of the top 5 M.C.U movies ever in my opinion. This is just such a super fun movie and the perfect portrayal of an amazing character. And so everyone, that's my list of my favourite movies of the year and I can't wait to make my top 10 one at the end of the year. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me your favourite movies of the year so far.
