Now I'm just curious, who the hell is this girl http://mangastream.com/read/naruto/75426197/14
The sand one ? Gaara's mother.
The other one ? Gaara's sister.

I love how Kishi, in the course of one chapter, so thoroughly destroyed one of his better character arcs. Not only did he completely ruin Gaara's flashback, but also took him straight down with Naruto in regards to the hard work theme. Gaara didn't need hard work, because he had super special mommy love powers all along.
-
Im starting to believe Kishi is intentionally crapping his story up because he at one point realized it wouldnt work and so decided to make a mockery out of it.
On the side he's considering a new start, but giving up sets his limit. Perhaps he tried a story quite a bit too large with all these villages and their games for power. Thats what I would have said if I wanted to be fair, but I am not gonna be fair. He might have tried a story too large, that I honestly bet on. But really, this takes the cake for me this chapter:!
!
They do realize they are ninjas right? so whats up with the "RAAAAUUUGH!!!" and completely visible charge running down the sand dunes?
I know I shouldnt question the logic in naruto, the main character wears an orange jumpsuit and screams all the way too. Only that now he doesnt wear it as often as he shines like a very bright flashlight. >.<The other characters tend to scream alot as well, and Akimichi (Chouji) grow into frigging giants.
I never really gave it a thought how almost all these powers have nothing to do with what a Ninja should specialize in. Ah well, atleast I can be sure Kishi is tired of his series too, he's only making a mockery of it for the money now.My prediction for the next chapter:
Dad: Take good care of your siblings Gaara. And live a happy and strong life.
Gaara: I will dad! Tears
Looks forward
Gaara: Who's the asshole who revived my dad like this! How Dare he!? -

Actually, Gaara was being protected by his mothers dead spirit or whatever back then too.
However, remember how Gaara was acomplete and utter psycho? A demon who loved only himself, because no one else did?
Well, the straw that broke the camels back for poor friend-seeking Gaara was the shocking revelation that his mother didn't love him after all.
In other words, Gaaras whole sociopathic murderous stint and forehead tattoo was all based on a lie, since his mother wubbed him after all.If anything Gaara should be even more angry with his father than before, since he made Gaara spend the main part of his life as a serial killer for no real reason.
-
Wow. Way to break part 1 Kishi.
I guess we're lucky Zabuza and Haku got out of this resurrection as fast as they did.
Glossy Black. Damn near bordering on The Heart, reserved though that may be for Sasuke, for bullshit retconning and fixing a psychopath's backstory with love. Its no 600 billion penis rainbow lulz meme, but its pretty damn terrible in other ways.
-
So Gara's dad used to sell gold from from his jutsu, no wonder sand village was so poor.
Screw it Kishi, you are just making up things you never planned. I can fuking bet you just made up daddy kagekage's jitsu. Maybe you fuking had no idea about their powers so you delayed the fight, so you can cook up these rubbish nonsense. -
-
@The:
Did Kishi just retcon the most emotionally heartwrenching part of Gaaras flashback- nay, his entire character?!!
Gaaras mother loved him?! His uncle didn't want to kill him!?!
Gaaras flashback is dead to me now.
GLOSSY FUCKING BLACK
His flashback doesn't have to be dead to you, because the fact is, it happened close to a decade ago (how time flys) and was very emotional when it actually happened so just because Kishimoto came out with another one of his shitty chapters doesn't mean that a major part of Gaara's character has to be ruined. It's called selective amnesia and it works very well for Star Wars fans or comic book fans you just don't acknowledge the existence of a terrible retcon or new plot development and act like it never happened.
But with that out of the way yes this chapter was pretty terrible because of the reasons you stated. I was going to give it an Orange Asthma Attack or Sharingan Red but I think your post has done a pretty good job of convincing me that tarnishing Gaara's character (who had already been weakened since he became Preacher for the Church of Naruto) is pretty damn worthy of a Glossy Black since tarnishing characters is one of the worst things Kishi can do.
-
I'm gonna go read it now, it can't be that bad right?
-
Why did you people have to open your giant mouths and retcon the good old days? Couldn't you just casually chill with the french moustache Mizukage?
Solid Glossy Black.
-
I hate you Kishimoto, I really do.
-
Take everything you know from part 1 and turn it into crap. Only good thing about this chapter was Mikukage. Glossy Black.
-
Lee will use jutsus in this war.
The End
-
Gai: Actually Lee, I placed a seal on you that prevented you from using ninjutsu! It's not that you have no talent, I just really wanted to see someone prove that Taijutsu alone could make a ninja!
Lee: Wow! That doesn't tarnish my backstory and character in the slightest sense! -
Lee using jutsus? More like Lee being the descendant of the inventor of every martial art ever.
But this is besides the point. Lee has his own manga to star in now. And that's what counts.
-
Aaaaaaaand the father of the year award goes toooooo drum rolllllllllll GAARA'S DAD! Denethor, pass him the trophy.
-
I hate you Kishimoto, I really do.
How can you? How can you hate all the emotional gay drama. Kishi is a genius.
Respect to the best gay mangaka in the business.
I demand apology. -
Ho god that was awful.
Really, what the fuck. It's one thing to 180 on the characterization of Gaara's parents, that could have been executed well. But to have given them such a horseshit, nonsensical, inhuman justification is just twisted. Kishi, consider yourself irredeemable in my eyes.

I never expected anything better from Kishi so… he is as always irredeemable in my eyes.
Anyone wondered how come daddy Gara can make gold. Common guys he should be fuking rich. The most usable ability in the whole of Naruto.
-
I really can't be fucked with Naruto anymore. It's just, ugh.
-
Chouza: Son, I have a confession to make. When you were a kid, the other children actually wanted to befriend you, but I told them to stay away and call you fat. Thought it'd build your character.
Chouji: That makes me feel so much better about my years as a social outcast! -
Hizashi: Son I'm not dead. We just pretended I was so it would build your character.
Neji: But you were re-animated!
Hizashi: Not true boy
-
just bad , just really bad

@metteminne:
just bad , just really bad
Oh no, you just said it >.>

I… I can't believe that I'm going to say this.
but this week, I actually read Naruto.... twice. It was actually interesting. oh my god am i going crazy?
Some one tell me I'm not crazy.
-
It was as interesting as finding out Akainu cried himself to sleep in guilt over blowing up that refugee ship. And he only blew it up because it carried an incurable, infectious disease.
-
Sakura's Dad: I'm sorry son… I turned you into a girl in order for you to build character, but it backfired.
Sakura: Don't worry dad, I'll be the best transgender ninja ever -
I… I can't believe that I'm going to say this.

No can do. You're crazy.

@RobbyBevard:
No can do. You're crazy.
Dr. Robert, what should I take to make this insanity go away? Isn't there anything you can do? You're a doctor for crying out loud!~!
-
Hiashi: Hinata, I always did believe that you had potential as a ninja, but I decided to disown you and train your sister instead to help you grow into a stronger ninja.
Hinata: I LUV YOU DADDY!!! -
Dr. Robert, what should I take to make this insanity go away? Isn't there anything you can do? You're a doctor for crying out loud!~!
Read two chapters of something else and call me in the morning.
-
And the penultimate!!
Minato: Son, you really weren't a social outcast and I wasn't dead. No one was in danger. This was all a test to make you a great ninja! Sasuke was even in on it!
Naruto: I understand, Dad!! Thank you!!
-
There are no words that can describe the level of shit that was in this fucking chapter.
Good work, Kishi.
-
i came close to smashing my laptop after reading this chapter, but instead i just closed my laptop nice and quietly. lied on my back and stared up at the wall.
anyways, its gotta stop, this whole redeeming/making it up as you go along. enough is enough. does this series have any decent/likeable, interesting charterers left?a
ANYONE!!!!???

Play-by-play:
[hide]
Gaara's Dad: You of all people have friends!?
Squinty-Eye Kage: WTF r u stupid? Everyone his age has friends.
Me: Hey, this is pretty cool, watching the failure dad get his.
Gaara: But now I understand why you tried to kill me.
Me:….......What?
Gaara: It's the Kage's duty to protect the village from any threat.
Me: He forgot to mention that his dad is a total asshole, but eh, whatever.
The eyebrows comment did actually make me smirk a bit.
Flashback happens
So far they're up to the point where Gaara is a failure and they're talking about cornering Gaara. Nothing too bad actually.
Yashamaru does the mother line
And now the plan is officially retarded.
'Hey! Let's traumatize our greatest weapon! That'll surely get great results!'
Kazekage: So it didn't work!
Me: No fucking shit Sherlock!
Zombies: We'll tell you our weaknesses!
Me: Shouldn't Kabuto put a seal on their tongue to prevent them saying that or something?
Gaara does the hugging thing
Me: Sorry Kishi, but at this point that becomes as stupid as everything else. Too late to make something like that dramatic.
Kazekage: It wasn't the Shukaku that protected you, but your mother.
Me: No! It! Wasn't! It was the goddamn Shukaku being perceived as his mother or whatever the fuck was happening back then!
Mrs. Gaara: I'll always protect you.
Me: Now it's turned into Harry fucking Potter! God!
[/hide] -
Thanks for the advice kishi! I better go and shave my eyebrows, no body will doubt my leadership ever again!
-
One of the few bits that interested me, I had divided opinions.
On one side, I was hoping for a brutal vengeance slaughter, crushing the limbs and bodies of that uncaring dad. But having seen the recent chapters, I was also expecting a milded down version of it. Both of those divided opinions turned out wrong, while a prediction I had written for fun… turned out true.
That his dad would start bullshitting about protecting the son, and Gaara buying it. Honestly, I did not expect what I saw in this chapter. Again, I was hoping for fiery emotions and brutal killing, and got a misunderstood relationships like almost all the other frigging zombies we've seen in this edo streak.! Gaara's Dad: You of all people have friends!?
Squinty-Eye Kage: WTF r u stupid? Everyone his age has friends.
Me: Hey, this is pretty cool, watching the failure dad get his.
Gaara: But now I understand why you tried to kill me.

Mrs. Gaara: I'll always protect you.
Me: Now it's turned into Harry fucking Potter! God!Reading your post makes me believe you were hoping for something similar. Some actual emotion. What happens now? Kishi continues to degrade his fantasy world by developing a short term jesus peace, that had started on the concept of Ninjas (I recall I had asked earlier if anyone knew if Kishi was originally planning on making it about mages instead of Ninjas, never got that answered).
I still remember this from Part 1: Ninjas - a profession that relied on strict training, controlling emotions, clients and missions that varied to assasinations, war and… babysittings? (What parent in their right mind would want a Ninja, even if a rookie to babysit their kid?)
We stooped from this to saving the world from a few evil ninjas, and everyone else just wants the best for the world through love and care. The same people who lived their whole lives to the orders and letter of assassination requests.Small world eh? Atleast its fun to see the degrading itself, the events... not so much.
-
This chapter….just....
why, Kishi?
-
You know what, if you read the chapter twice, you hate it even more.
-
This chapter….just....
why, Kishi?
Kishi is tieing up EVERY lose tread he can think of as he's running for the finish.
-
Kishi is tieing up EVERY lose tread he can think of as he's going out on the highest note he can.
Fixed that for ya.

Somebody go to NarutoForums and bring back something for us to laugh at
-
Mr. Uchiha (was he ever given a name?): Son the rest of the family and I weren't really planning to stage an incredibly violent coup that would've killed thousands and have had our country swallowed up by the other nations faster than you can say "Mongol empire." We just made it seem that way so that the village heads could send your big brother and ancestor to kill us all in a bloody massacre and you would gain some character.
-
Went to OM to read some funny stuff and I found a few. Just going to quote them without any nicknames because to be honest, who cares?
Say what you like about sentimentality, but I loved this chapter. I'm amazed as hell its out today. But this chapter brought tears to my eyes.
Go Gaara! That's definitely some plot that needed resolution.
anyway.. i love this chapter! although some parts feel familiar.. but i'm happy for gaara~~
This is why i said a long time ago, that Kuboto is a double agent just like Itachi and actually helping the good guys. If some of the background story and moments of closure do not occur, then there will be no pathway to true peace and understanding along with forgiveness. this is what kuboto is contributing to the Good guys, allowing them them to see that the way they were doing things, is wrong and has to change. Gaara now knows that his Mother truly loved him and no longer has to bear the burden that tainted him, believing no one loved him or truly cared for and about him.
I got tears in my eyes. This chapter was so incredibly good. Chapters with gaara in it are always so great!
I really liked this chapter, it's good for the development of Gaara as a character
And he was great with sand
In War there is espionage and the such; till now none has been able to get close to Madara; However, Kuboto succeeded where all others failed and now has been able to get someone else inside(Yamato). He also has Anko there as well, so in the end it will be a Swordfish, Mission Impossible, type of War and Madara and Zetsu will have to take on everyone including Saskue, who i believe is finally turning around to the good guy he is and can be; Even Saskue never killed anyone just like that for the sake of it, when he could of. This is War and infiltration and the such; deception and the such is all part of it, just saying.
Saskue has been a good guy from the get go; just that he was tainted just as almost everyone in this Manga; Kakashi got his closure with his father during the Pain arc. If Saskue was not considered a good guy, Konoha would not have gone to the lengths they did to retrieve him; they also did not place him on the Hit list when they were asked to. Saskue is being viewed as a hero to some of the other villages, for helping to rescue/release the people that Oro had locked up and was experimenting on; Please remember Seigutsu told them to spread the Word, that it was Saskue that saved and released them. The only ones who are after his head, are some of the leaders and now they know he did not Kill Bee, so outside of Danzo he really have not done anything drastic to not give him an opportunity to return; it will be up to Konoha to accept him and as long as Naruto and Sakura are there, then he has his chance.
The old will surpass the new what part of that are you folks not getting, I bet Garra will learn his fathers gold jutsu bu take it even father to be able to manipulate other metals as welll..i mean after this war he will need a new power up to at least appear on pa with naruto and them..

Lololol These people are nuts.
Who the hell is Kuboto? It's like some sick joke involving Kubo.
Saskue has been a good guy from the get go;

It's supposed to be Kabuto. And it's really funny, isn't it?
-
Seriosly, those revived Jinchuuriki with both Sharingan and Rinnegan look creepy as hell when coloured. I'd run if I ever saw something like that… Actually liked this chapter, since I like Gaara. But, seriously, the "your mother truly loves you" "she will always protect you" stuff is like Harry Potter. And shit.
Yeah. Why now?!
Lol, I'm so glad I'm not the only one who saw this. I'm seriously hoping Kishi is not trying to tell us it's Karura's "love" which causes the automatic shield rather than the Shukaku.
@The:

GLOSSY FUCKING BLACK
THIS! GOSSY FUCKING BLACK!
–---------------------------------------------------------
And what the hell is up with all these Kage's passive aggressive fighting stance!? This is a TERRIBLE problem in this "war"! The only serious fighters are the stupid Zetsus and the fodder zombies! The real threatening zombies are all affected by feelings and shit! Kabuchimaru get control of your zombies! What ever happened to gaining better control of them as their numbers dwindled!?
-
Hahahahahaha the fuck? What a joke chapter.
