Part I is to Part II how Dragonball is to Dragonball Z.

Dragonball was a comedic martial arts series and Dragonball Z was raw action. They're completely different and yet, oddly the same. As Kishimoto considers Toriyama his greatest inspiration, its no wonder the series feel so different.

Also, I understand everyone being upset from an editor's standpoint. Adding all of this new information, some of it all convoluted, is a huge headache. But just from a reader's standpoint, I love reading Naruto every week. It just keeps getting better and better. That's my opinion, anyways.
