truly, naruto is a failed story :(

Let's do a little math here, shall we?

One Piece, Naruto, and Dragon Ball were rated just this week as the top three money-makers in Japan from the anime/manga world. This statistic comes from Bandai-Namco, if I'm not mistaken. Furthermore, in an interview recently released on Saiyanisland, which was a joint interview between Kishi and Oda, Naruto was said to be one of the most popular international manga/anime series at the moment and Oda himself admitted it was more popular than One Piece.

That is not a "failed" story by any stretch of the term, my friend.
