Where'd you get that information?
Meanwhile, Toriko is rising in popularity.

Kishimoto was throwing me mixups with his chapter today, I didn't know how to feel.
First, we establish the Insect host is a girl. okay. Then she takes clothing damage, revealing… lines? wrinkled, dead breasts? A manly chest? I don't know what that was, but it sure didn't look appealing to me. THEN, Killberbee rhymes "triple" with "nipple", and reveals he was checking out her tits, which made me honestly laugh, but then I remembered there's not much to check out. Were you kidding, Bee? Please tell me you were. THEN, we see another shot, and while the breasts are more clearly defined than before, they could still easily pass for pecs. And they still aren't the least bit sexy. And THEN, they plan to grab her tits and pull the chakra plug out? and wait, Tobi probably personally decided "right above the nipple, that's where the plug goes, he he he". Like I said, conflicting levels of confusion and entertainment here.
With HSDK, this would all be so much simpler. Battle damage, tits, ero ero hands, boom. but then we'd have to have another argument about fanservice afterwards.
I find weird the bug wings coming out of that girl ass(kinda like Aizen).I guess kishi put it like that to be like "tails".

what I dont' get in Naruto is, why do these Zombies need those black rods? Weren't the black rods used before so that someone ALIVE could control all these DEAD warriors. You know Negato using all these dead bodies and not using that jutsu that kabuto uses.
How come now these Zombies that are alive due to kabuto still need the black rods?
They need the chakra rods so that Tobi can share his Rinnengan powers with them all and they can have a shared field of vision.

You do realize that's not Kishi, right

Lol Bee rhymes are probably pretty hard to translate.
I don't know if it has been said before, but I'll give Kubo and the Bleach Anime staff one thing: Their openings treat the characters with respect.
Opening 10 of Naruto Shippuden, Jesus Christ, what did they do….

What the fuck…
I know the music is from the One Piece Opening we won't speak of... but what is UP with this intro!?
@Cyan:
That was horrifying.

YAY~~~~~!
i r nardo.
i wil bee cum hoeKAHgay
Was that opening made as a joke that the higher ups just took seriously?
so there i was being kishi
i was crying over the tremendous trainwreck that is my manga when the anime guys came in and showed me the opening
i saw it and said FUCK IT PUT IT ON I DONT CARE ANYMORE and then cried some more
I LOVE MY LIFE
Brilliant Cyan, brilliant
You do realize that's not Kishi, right
Even in the japanese original, Bee must be rapping about zombie tits.
@Cyan:
All these months later, I have yet to see something that describes current Naruto better.
@Cyan:
If that was legit I'd hide away for a while because the world has become too much of a fucked up place.

The only fake part of it is that the actual music was replaced with that horrible one piece opening. The actual animation is all real. Also love how the song in the actual opening is called "NewSong"
Newsong's actually a really nice song by itself. It just doesn't suit naruto and the opening's troll animation

... NNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I still can't get over how that opening makes the Elder Toad look like a villain.

If this holds then yeah one can see why Kubo would re-hash plot points from his most successful arc to-date with the Ukitake-as-villain-implications
Previously well-loved and trusted mentor figure turns out to have ulterior motive and becomes an antagonist? Aizen = Ukitake
SS captains being dicks? yep
A few shinigami and captains (Hitsugaya, Kenpachi, Byakuya) siding with Ichigo? Of course.
I can see it now, Kubo embellishing/retconning the entire Ukitake-Kaien-Rukia angle to give his new upcoming SS civil war arc some dramatic, emotional substance. :getlost:

Shhhh. Don't give him ideas.
Hells yes I've partly inspired the title :ninja: man do I feel important now!
I was watching the latest Naruto episode and i was enjoying it but after this [hide][/hide] killed the episode. Oh nice title again.
I don't understand why Sasuke is still in this. I mean, he has been an antagonist for, what, 300-400 chapters now. It's only because of popularity. And he's simply bland and dull. Fuck that.
Am I right in remembering that Kishi just created him because his editors said Naruto needed a rival?
lool…no just no. Non of the konoha 11 has yet to fail as hard as yamcha ever did.
See even the title agrees with me.
I don't know what this Konoha 11 is, but it sounds like Chad.
@Cyan:

Okay I say we need a new thread title already, that was great
Hells yes I've partly inspired the title :ninja: man do I feel important now!
Feels good, don't it?
But yeah, lovin' the new thread title. I guess mine had to hang up its boots eventually.

I kind of don't pay attention to things I see all the time :P

It was the previous one.
Ichigo doesn't beLIEve it.

Don't worry Kubo's sure to make some horrendous Engrishy chapter title before long….if he already hasn't.

Sadly, this is true.
Hm, great new thread title.
Awwww… poor Yamcha XD
And Chad...
And Rock Lee...
sobs
F*ck you Naruto and Bleach ;-;

My thoughts exactly.
Yamcha??!!
!
and Yamcha's role in Shounen formula…
!
Kishi's followed this formula too closely….
Kubo will bring back the caps any time the sales are down. We'll see more Kenpachi and that little kid and that other little kid with white hair more and more. If he thinks it's cuz of fake Aizen then real Aizen will probably return earlier than planned.
So. How about that Chad and his clear importance to his arc?
Wait. He's not here. Yeah okay.
Bleach Asylum's reaction to the 2011 Top Selling Manga Rankings
One Piece is that godly? So, why cant I read it? Might have another try again.
Wow, One Piece shits on the other manga.
I tried to read it once but almost got blind thanks to the art.
I might try forcing myself to read it just for this.
WHOA!!! ONE PIECE IS SO HIGH, I don't even…
Maybe I should start reading it sometime, but for some reason, I couldn't really do it. Don't know why….. I guess I should try again?
[hide][/hide]
Oh, dear. I will admit though, One Piece did look unappealing when I first came in contact with it. At least to me. But three chapters in, I fell in love.
