Give the guy (a normal human being) a break already! He worked non-stop for 15 years to work on weekly issued manga, which is a tough job to take; but he still went on (for us!) proving he respects us too.

Tolkien did a great job on his work because he had LOTS of time to work on and whatnot. Kishi also has a great imagination, but stress obviously took it's toll on him, otherwise had he taken a year long break even, naruto would've had a good layout infront.
