Some improvement for juju as well.. kishi made his manga a bit more interesting and juju learned to quote. Kishi implemented dialogue boxes and he also filled them, juju didn't made 2 posts to answer multiple posts.
I suppose kishi's improvement goes along with juju's ! !

No comments about the new tailed beasts?

GODDAMMIT!! Why does Kishimoto have all this creativity and NEVER USE IT!? I really think he should retire from manga after Naruto ends and just design video game characters. He'd be much better at it.
So let's line this out:
1-tail: Tanuki
2-tail: Cat
3-tail: Sea Turtle
4-tail: Monkey
5-tail: Um . . . Antelope . . thing? I'm honestly not sure.
6-tail: Slug
7-tail: Stag beetle (beetle!?)
8-tail: Manbullpus
9-tail: Fox
So much potential, so much waste . . . .
Wow. Actually, that's pretty cool seeing all the tailed beasts. I never thought we would see them all. And yeah, 5 and 8 are the only ones that aren't really anything. 8 is a mix of a bull and an octopus and 5 looks like some kind of mix of an equine and a ferret…or something.
Kishi was really stretching it with the beetle though. It looks like 6 of its "tails" are actually wings. And beetles don't even have tails. I guess we'll just call it some sort of mythical insect or something.
I would have much rather seen Naruto running around fighting giant tailed beasts ala Shadow of the Collosus, than gayly eliminating the Akatsuki and their ill defined goals and evenge plans one by one. (Sure, Narutos got sage mage BS now, but before it was 15 year olds eliminating the uber elite AAA assassin badasses of the world, each capable of singlehandedly slaughtering villages and hundreds of men… yet... beaten by random 15 year olds. All from the same village.. Pretty pathetic.)
At least if Naruto were going after tailed beast it would have been a quest specific to him. or something.
Also, was it ever explained why EVERY SINGLE tailed beast has someone been sealed into someone from different villages? Originally they sure made it SEEM like the kyuubi was an accidental emergency measure where they had no choice but to seal it within a newborn baby. (In the time since its been retconned that it was "always" the plan of Nruto's father, conveniantly the fourth hokage...)
...why did the village shun the son of a hokage again? Since apparently most of them DIDN'T know he had a tailed beast seasled in him.... Nobody gives that one shitty grandson Konohamaru any grief despite him being exactly like Naruto...
#5 is Espeon. (Kidding, but you never know).
I'm sure all these creatures are based on some mythical or legendary beast:
#1: One Tailed Shukaku (We all know this one)
#2: A Nekomata, which is spawned when a Bakeneko's tail splits in two
#3: Turtle-Hydra thing… possibly based on an Aspidochelone
#4 Oozaru... Hey, Kishi, Toriyama wants a word with you...
#5 An Inugama (Demon Dog... Yes, like Inuyasha...) maybe? Honestly, I haven't the fondest...
#6 The Slug from Tail of Gallant Jiraiya, although Tsunade was supposed to summon that... and she has Katsuya... uh, well...
#7 A Stag beetle or a Hercules Beetle is my guess.
#8 Probably based on an Ushi-oni, an animal with 8 legs (although spider legs, but tentacles are close enough) and the head of a Bull.
#9 Well... duh.

I would have preferred it, but then again the whole "in the same boat" thing was already done with Gaara, so I guess it could get old. I'd still rather see the Jinchuuriki Bonanza rather than the Akatsuki Massacre.
BTW is your avatar Okami-related?
Danzo is the only good guy in the leaf village.
Agreed

I agree and Kishi/ODa have limits to the amount of things they can put in. They have time limit or whstever. We will sometimes see the Anime add things in certain eps that they didn't have time to explain. We might get to see a few of them in the anime, but it will be short.

No. Not at all.
Ye juju, they have 60% limitation while on earth, like shinigamis do.

Well yes, it would have gotten old with each of them being in a host… for some reason... but a few of them could have just been simple rampant beasts. Or something. A small man fighting a giant monster by running up its backside is just badass. Pure and simple. Again, I cite Shadow of the Colossus, which managed to do it 16 times without getting repetivie. (Some that flew, some that swam, some you had to guide, one was an actual fortress, a couple were small and feared fire, etc.) it would have been pretty simple to do a variett of stuff on another 7 beasts. Some could be human, some wild, breath fire or ice, etc. etc.
But clearly, thats the road not taken, we instead got a bunch of guys in robes that are all suicidal.
and yes, the icon is Okami fanart. No actual correlation to the game I don't think, just fanart, but... four baby wolves are too ridiculously cute to not share. (And also Okami is like, my favorite game ever.)
Yeah I think that way about it too. Scenes that are supposed to be comical seem way out of place in a story thats just so bad its laughable.
sometimes I feel like kishi tries hard to be funny, it just doesn't feel natural if you know what I mean.
Kishi used to be a lot more naturally funny, but since the time skip he's definitely gotten way more forced. The last time I remember really laughing at Naruto was when Gai gave Kakashi a piggy-back ride. Since then I've gotten nothing but a few occasional chuckles. Mostly courtesy of Akatsuki.
Deidara and tobi were the last comical stuff I can honestly recall
Deidara, Tobi, Bill and Ted - er, I mean Kakuzu and Hidan, they were all great sources of comedy, both intentional and not. All gone now. sigh
i miss deidara and puppet guy arguing over true art
art jokes are the best dont judge me
I laughed at the opening of the Naruto anime. They changed it to make it more Sasuke-oriented. Wonder why :happy:
Edit: Actually, the new ending video made me laugh! Look at the shot of Tsunade very carefully!
Just got caught up with the anime since it's now following the manga.

Must… perservere... through bad... art . I wonder why it started getting so bad :ermm: ? The shading is especially terrible and that's what gets on my nerves the most. And what's the spoiler with the Zabuza sword?
Edit: The next chapter's art is 100 times better . I wonder why it fluxuates...
Reading it through Onemanga is a bad idea, since they use the Jump scans instead of the tankoubon scans, which have heavily cleaned-up art in a lot of places. (Onemanga just sucks nuts in general, but…)
What would you reccomend?
Check a site like Mangahelpers or Mangatraders for the tankoubon scans.
I don't have any specific links though, since I read the actual volumes instead of downloads. >_>;;
Yeah I'll get around to buying them eventually . I just bought volumes 3-10 of Buso Renkin. Do you know if the Viz volumes are censored in any way?
I heard they were censored slightly, but I don't know the specifics. :/
I buy the Japanese release, so yeah.
I know Nexgear released scans of the earlier parts of the ant arc in tankoubon form, but they kind of don't exist anymore as a group so I'm in the dark as to who released the most current volumes.
I do know that someone out there did, though…
Kishi's going to turn Naruto into Ghandi, isn't he. Sigh, remember when Lee fought Gaara? That was cool. Or when Shikamaru buried that voodoo guy alive? That was cool too. Or when Naruto and Sasuke fought at the waterfall? Sasuke's crybabyness aside, that was cool too.
Comment for the last chapter…well, at least we're getting closer to wrapping things up with the revelation of the last two Kages...and somehow Kishi remembering that he promised to get a bit more for Anko and Kabuto.

http://mangahelpers.com/downloads/details/1709 now here you go, this is volume 19 raw, you'll see the improvements he did from weekly and tankoubon format and yes I know this link has it in japanese. so what, it's basically chapters 188 - 199
Hey, did anyone guessed who the sound hokage is yet? Cause I just remembered that Obito had an injured right arm and eye from his flashback.
Of course, why Obito would be a kage doesn't really make sense, considering it was hinted that Tobi was Obito for so long. I'm sure it'll lead to a stupid revelation either way.
That said, despite what most people think, and I know some of this has been said before, I'm liking the way Naruto as a character is going. Letting someone hit you to make them feel better? Awesome. Doing it for Sasuke? Lame, but nothing at least two kicks to Sasuke's nuts wouldn't solve.

I thought the sound ninja were a made up ninja group that orochimaru made. it wasn't a huge nation with hokage and all just orochimaru's underlings. Or am I wrong
Hey, did anyone guessed who the sound hokage is yet?
Since Orochimaru founded the Sound Village wouldn't he had been the leader of the village.
The only Kage we don't know about is the Kage from Kusagakure (Village Hidden in the Grass). Of course, we don't know jack shit about the village, either, except that there was a Grass Ninja participating in the Chunin exams way back when and that Iwagakure invaded The Land of Grass back during the war and used it as a foothold against Konoha.
People also seem to think Zetsu is from Kusagakure, but his origin hasn't been revealed yet.
Doesn't matter much. Probably just an oversight on Kishi's part.
And though Orochimaru was Kage level, he was never considered a Kage. Fans called him Otokage as a joke, though.

Alright, I made a mistake about that. What element or clan is shown in the last few pages?
Edit: Wait, on second look…that isn't Danzo in the last panel is it? Why would the author cover the face of a known character in shadow like that? There's no point to it. And what's the swirly crap around his chest and neck? Alright, weird shadowing and art confused me. Nevermind.
Oh, I also never noticed Danzo didn't have a right arm before. The guys just never stuck out much for me. He's the most generic of generic middle aged guys with bandages on their face.
@Fire Fist:

He'll always be pedokage to me.
I thought there were only five Kages. Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, and Thunder. All the other villages/countries were too small/weak to have Kages, isn't that right?

No, there's a filler Kage, too, the Hoshikage, from Hoshigakure (Hidden Star Village). And all the other major villages have a Kage except Amegakure, but that supposedly was Hanzo before Nagato and crew killed him. It would make sense for there to be a Kusakage as well.

I think the other villages have leaders, but they aren't called Kages.

This is correct, only the five major villages have Kage's. And fillers are garbage.
Heya, is there a chapter coming out this week? I know One Piece doesn't have one, but I was wonderin' if at least this'un did. Thanks!!
Both Bleach and Naruto should have chapter.

Don't forget themost important one. HEART! Heart is the best. He has a monkey. And gets trapped in closets and mine shafts all the time, thus rendering him incapable of summoning Captain Planet.
Captain Planet! He's A Hero! Gonna Put Polution Down To Zero!

Captain Planet is the Ten Tail Beast. The Kages will summon it with their hats to take down Akatsuki and the Moon Beast.
I don't know if anyone found them but I went through a thread about the new Naruto art book at MangaHelpers and found a translation of Kishimoto's comments on the beasts:
Gaara:
One-tail
The Hidden Sand Village
Gaara's concept is a tanuki. I thought that it would make a good rival for Naruto's fox. (化かし合い is confusing, but the previous sentence gets the gist of it) I liked the concave chin and jagged teeth on the One-tail's mouth.
Nii Yugito:
Two-tails
The Hidden Cloud Village
I got the image of the Two-tails from the idea that having a two-tailed cat elongates your lifespan. Yugito was a high-ranking female shinobi that even Killer Bee looked up to.
Yagura:
Three-tails
The Hidden Mist Village
Because I had previously shown mainly jinchuuriki like Naruto and Gaara, I decided to show a huge bijuu instead. The image is that of a turtle.
Roushi:
Four-tails
The Hidden Rock Village
The concept for this bijuu was a gorilla… and also Son Goku's monkey from Dragonball. While the horns wrapping around the forehead are supposed to be like the Chinese Son Goku's halo(?). I just combined all of that together. It shoots lava from its mouth.
Han:
Five-tails
The Hidden Rock Village
I just had this idea to combine a dolphin with a horse, I don't really understand it myself. Han wears steam-powered armor and is a ninja that uses steam. He's a steam jinchuuriki.
Utakata:
Six-tails
The Hidden Mist Village
The Six-tails has a wet and drippy feel to it, but it doesn't shoot out lightning. (lol)<-these are Kishimoto's lols, not mine. Utakata uses soap ball (bubbles!) ninjutsu and looks like he'd fit in at a wake.
Fuu:
Seven-tails
The Hidden Waterfall Village
The concept of the Seven-tails was that of a bug. It has the feel of an armored bug. It's tails are wings! The jinchuuriki is a girl… for right now. I hadn't really decided on it. (lol)
Killer Bee:
Eight-tails
The Hidden Cloud Village
The Eight-tails is a combination of an octopus and a bull. I'm pleased with how deliciously the tentacles turned out. Killer Bee rhymes and steps to the beat. He's freakin' strong.
Uzumaki Naruto:
Nine-tails
The Hidden Leaf Village
The concept is a fox. It's the strongest of the bijuu, in fact, it's so strong that I, the author, have to wonder about the best way to show it off each time. (lol)
