No, Sasori was by far one of the strongest characters we've seen fight to their fullest in this series, maybe the strongest. He only lost because, like Hidan, he got put up against the perfect circumstances for his defeat (Chiyo's puppetry and Sakura's strength).
Naruto Discussion!
-
-
Yeah… I do agree with that. But at the time, a lot of people I saw were using the same "well he was probably the weak member" excuse to justify one of the Akatsuki getting killed so quickly.
I don't think either of the three are really weak. Even if Hidan doesn't really have any technique, his impossibility to kill alone probably made him really useful in the Akatsuki.
-
Yeah, agreed. Hidan was probably the weakest in Akatsuki due to his lack of actual strategy outside of his one technique, but he's by no means a weak character.
-
Didn't Sasori more or less commit suicide? He had granny and forehead under his power but somehow decided he wanted to go meet his parents or some bullshit like that.
-
Yeah, the way they stabbed him was like how they used to hug him. And in Shippuden, I hate Deidara's voice.
-
Yeah, Sasori killed himself but I didn't remember the scene. Can you post it?
Hey guys, remember Hidan is not dead yet.
-
Hidan did say he had the slowest attack speed. We also see that he really has nothing else besides scythe skills and blood licking.
Yo, I think to be a real pain in Hidan's ass, we should send someone with Aids to fight him. Thatd be his perfect match.
I have to agree, the only redeeming part of this arc was Shika's parts. everything else was garbage imo. Kakuzu had a really cool powere at first(could use all elements in his body, and summon them out to also fight. But when he fused with them, he was just the Main character new move test subject. I mean he stood in the same place for like 5 chapters. He was waiting to eat narutos move.
Sasori, even tho I didnt like the length, was far superior to this arc. Especially the conclusion. He died by his mama and papa. I also like how chiyo developed this techinique to bring puppets to life, in order to bring sasori's parents to life, but he was too far gone by the time they met again. That arc was just alot more enjoyable imo.
So yea, maybe the anime will make this arc more enjoyable, but reading it manga wise was not a fun expirience, and Im glad its over.
Edit: Sasori didnt kill himself, chiyo sealed him with some puppet leaking seal, and stabbed his life drum thing with mama and papa. She commented that he could have avoided it, so we are left to speculate that he chose death.
and Deidara's voice is great. I really like it. I was relieved when i heard it actually.
-
If we had someone with AIDS fight Hidan, it wouldn't matter. If he had AIDS, he still wouldn't die.
-
Itd still suck. Aids hurts. V_V
So remember kids, wrap it before you tap it.
-
Oh, my. We need the raw soon.
-
uhhh what are you talking about the RAW is out for the chapter and the episode….
-
Next week chapter of course.
-
It's just gonna be a chapter of "What's goin' on wit' Oro and Sasuke"
-
This text is not a summary. We don't know what can happens, but for the logic, Zetsu or other akatsuki would have to visit the scene of crime
-
Does Zetsu even know how to fight? It doesn't seem like it.
-
No, we don't know how powerfull is he, but now he only should recover the rings, Hidan's parts…...and eats KakuzuXD
-
Hidan should definetly escape his grave, find the AL, eat his head, and use his body as his own…
-
Could be possible an hybrid between Hidan's parts and Kakuzu's body?
Or Hidan summoms his beloved Jashin-sama.
-
Or they build him a body like they did for Obi…I mean, Tobi.
-
I also agree with the person who said the Sasori arc was far superior. In fact, that's my personal favorite fight in the entire series.
I'm highly anticipating how Kishi will handle this next chapter. He's on a roll, and I hope it continues.

I liked the Sasori arc. That was the best fight in the manga overall.
KAzu didnt stand there for 5 chapters. lol. It was more like 2 mins. He did a combo attacked, got blocked by Naruto and Yamato combined jutsu. Than Naruto failed his attack, than naruto succeded.
It just seemed longer because Kishie draws so big and it concentrated on hidan for a chapter or 2.
-
I thought the Sasori fight was excruciating and I read it in one time, I shudder at the thought of having to wait week after week to see generic old fart n°76575 and the embodiement of uselessness buy some time until the bad guy is so bored he'd rather die.
Can't blame him, I'd have done the same.
-
Gaara's rescue arc is one of the best in the series. I liked it too, specially the Sasori fight. During this fight, there were some revelations. For example, what happened to the previous kazekage. Sasori's family story was a drama.
-
i don't know what to think of this fight… in one hand sakura had her moments which made it good and on the other hand i've never been a big fan of the puppet masters in naruto. so in the end, i'd say that if they handle to shorten it as good as they did with the sasuke vs naruto fight, then the animated version might be very enjoyable.
EDIT: revelations about a random guy who's about to die = no revelations for me.

I'd rather have that than what happened to Deidara and having Kakashi unleash his version of the Mangekyo Sharingan on him. What a fucking cop-out.
At least Sasori died fighting with his puppets. Deidara had his right arm 'sent to a localized interdimensional space-time warp'. groan

Naruto spoilers are the most fast to come.
-
Most likely fake.
The whole point of that, was when he saw his parents come at him. He hesistated. That was the reason he was killed. It wasnt an official suicide.
With good animation, that fight will look very good animated. Sasori when he switched bodies and stabbed sakura, looked like something from a horror movie. His crazy looking doll eyes, under that black-hooded sweater was great.
-
Translation of the latest spoiler:
Itachi, Kisame, Tobi, Deidara and AL in the 1st half and Naruto, Tsunade and Shizune talking together in the 2nd half.
Looks like the true spoiler.
-
all naruto villains just secretly want to be loved by their parents
-
Whatever one may think about the sasori fight,…that awesome quote is classic:
-
Zetsu is not named in the spoiler. Then it means he's went to to the forest.
Yeah, amazing this part of Sasori fight.
-
Orochimaru doesn't want his parents to love him.
-
@Impel:
Orochimaru doesn't want his parents to love him.
we don't know that… besides, he takes advantage of all little boys who do.
-
Here's a summary:
Looks like the remaining akatsuki members have attacked the hidden village of water(Mizukage), and Kisame kills mizukage.
Deidara and Tobi are trying to capture a Jinchuuriki - a little boy. Looks like they killed the little boy's older brother to get to him.
Akatsuki leader and woman discuss a new record: killing 130,000 in 5 min.
Back to Konoha,
Tsunade, Naruto and Shikamaru discuss what just happened in the hidden village of water. They discuss that they may have been dealing with the "waker" Akatsuki members all this time.The chapter ends with a frame of dead bodies, piled high.
Not confirmed yet. Fake for me.
-
The spoiler was believeable and somewhat cool 'til the 130.000-in-5-minutes-thing.
If that was real, it would be pretty lame. -
-
Akatsuki leader and woman discuss a new record: killing 130,000 in 5 min.
HEY WE ARE REALLY BAD LOOK OVER HERE NOW!
That's really what I'm seeing here. Please be fake. I'm REALLY close to reading Naruto again, but this will stop everything dead if it's real.
-
Be calm guys. The spoiler is definetly a fake.
-
:< Er, then don't post it… I'm trying to avoid Naruto fanfiction here.
-
LOL, I hate spoilers!!!
Mark them please. Some of us exercise patience and like to wait for the chapter.
-
This is definitely fake. One, it's too early, two, Deidara and Tobi already have their Jinchuuriki so why would they want to get another one, and three, Tsunade's and Shikamaru's names are misspelled in the text.
-
It's never too early for a spoiler. But this one is fake. I mean come on, there's no way Shika would be getting more screen time… and Naruto involved in a conversation ? WTF?
-
Still, I still like to visit this topic before chapter days, but I hate spoilers. So if you would kindly keep all spoiler convos hidden in the nifty spoiler box AP forums has(Only forum I visit with one of those) Id greatly appreciate it.
-
I honestly think this chapter will reveal some more Orochimaru lackies, and possibly give us a 3rd faction of people for fights. Why show Orochimaru and Sasuke killing people for no reason? I can't imagine Kabuto and Sasuke are the only two people under Orochimaru's control.
-
I like that idea rushashi. I'd be nice if Orochi was secretly creating his own group of super ninja that are comparble to Akatsuki. Or atleast let Orochi's gang get an arc to take out a few Akatsuki.

Spoilerbox? You mean spoiler tags?

Another spoiler, this one seems believable:
! Scene is apparently the same as before. Orochimaru asks if the one Sasuke means by his comment (in the last chapter) is Itachi. Sasuke reacts with a "!". Orochimaru proceeds to say that Sasuke's chances to kill Itachi are still rather small. Sasuke reacts by staring angrily at Orochimaru, to which Orochimaru replies that he shouldn't be so angry. He also says that there's still something Sasuke lacks. Then he smiled wickedly and thinks (apparetly) 'Yes… That...'.
! Scene switches to Akatsuki hideout. The leader says they they've encountered some trouble. Kisame asks... Well, I'm not sure if he asks if "they were defeated by Konoha?" or "Should we go after konoha?", sorta (I think it's the first, however). The leader says that things are still fine and procceeds to saying that the question is Orochimaru. He says it'd be troublesome if the Sharingan were to fall into Orochimarus hands, so he tells Kisame & Itachi to take care of Orochimaru. They leave. The leader tells Deidara & Tobi to go on gathering the other bijuus. Should they encounter Naruto however, they are to retreat. Deidara replies something, but I'm not sure what (anyone knows what "ノルマ" means?), but I think he says his part is over/finsished, to which the AL replies that that's why he entrusts this job to them. Deidara apparently protests, but the leader tells them that they're the best for the job. Deidara & Tobi disappear. He tells Zetsu to take care of the fallen, so to speak. Zetsu disappears. He then tells Bluehair to take care of konoha's jinchuuriki and furthermore that the next meeting will be as soon as the current circumstances have been taken care of, if I read it correctly... The leader & the woman disappears. End of chapter...Blue Hair must be one hell of a broken biatch if AL tells Deidara to flee if he meets the Kyuubi Jinchuuriki then orders her to take care of Naruto.

I'm 75% sure that this spoiler is true, because it starts with last scene of the previous chapter and the rest of the parts makes sense. If not another spoiler comes out this night, then it'll means that this is the true spoiler.
And reading this spoiler, the chapter is awesome!
Thanks for the spoiler, Aldrich.
