The ram was the only one I liked, although the chameleon might grow on me just because it's so ridiculous.
I'm still amazed at how stupid the one bird thing was though.

Unforntunately, this chapter lacks Shino. That's the only flaw I see. I dug the chameleon summon, wish I'd seen more it. And Kishi seems to atleast be consistent with Jiraiya atleast, so I'm expecting good things from "Hermit mode".
@Mr.:

I would forgiven the bird's iffy design if it had a cool or unique ability.
But, you know, darting into your opponent with your retarded beak isn't all that interesting…so.......
Nagoto at age 10 was able to use all 6 elements? Why in the hell didnt Jirayia bring them to Konoha with them. The third would of been very pleased.
Jirayia's big sister and brother or was it mother or father? This should be interesting. I like the start of the fight. The frog that jirayia was using, wasnt he one of the small frogs naruto summoned in the gaara fight?
Pein summons are pretty powerful. I really dont see Naruto beating this guy at his current level.
It looks like Jirayia is going to go out with a bang in which Asuma and Oro didnt do. At least Diedra had a good fight before his death and it loooks the same for Jirayia.
Alot of kishie's sketches of Naruto, he later used or made reference to. That is no big deal. Oda does the same as well. If you look at the early cover pages, you will see themes that relate to what happend in the future of the manga. Particularly with Sasuke and the hawk vs the snake summons.
@Cap'n:
That's a vintage joke you have there.
Says the guy who thinks Robotnic porn is funny… and goes looking for it.
So Jiraiya is a frog. Yeaaaah, didn't see that coming, Kishi...
This was the first chapter I DLed in a while, and it was a pretty good one. The summon designs were all really odd, but the only one that sucked was the bird.
Too bad we finally get to see Jiraiya actually do shit right before he'll most likely die.

Seriously, every time you make a post it's like a new adventure in utter embarrasment.

Because until recently there was no Nagato in naruto world.
Kishi would definitely have at least hinted at Jiraiya's past with the little rinnegan monster if he had planned it from the start.
Chapter was ok.
If only because actually hitting returned.
but I have a feeling kishimoto is going to make those frogs extremely gay.
Any idea why DeadJustice got banned?
As for this week's chapter, not terrible I guess, but still a long way from being remotely decent.

Unless he got banned for something they deleted, that's the only thing I can think of.

Doubt it.
The lot of us would have been banned if thats all it takes.
At least Kishimoto can do summon battles in a decently interesting way
As much as I liked MÄR, it went downhill once it became all about summons. Pretty much "I summoned a bigger pokemans than you so I win OHKO flawless victory"
Summons have always been an interesting thing in Naruto, and it's kind of funny that Shitface Pain has some of the better ones, like a giant crab and giant squid.

Wasn't that one from the fake spoiler pics?
Yeah, sadly that squid was a hoax.
The thing is MÄR had a lot of awesome summon designs as well, but they weren't used well. It was pretty much "I'll pull out something bigger than his at the end and win it." Made the fights anti-climatic.
Squid was fake? Goddamnit.
deadjustice requested the ban
good fight so far, and even though it's really likely, I really hope that he doesn't die.
What's the intrigue? He pm'd Battle Franky about it.

It's not everyday I see someone requesting their own ban, so I was just curious.
…...unless I'm totally out of the loop on something.
I didn't know either, so I asked. We usually have a discussion when someone is banned for a negative reason so I would know otherwise. It's actually a pretty commonly requested thing, I think Majek requested one a few weeks ago. Mostly it's done if you want to do some school work or something and don't want to get distracted.

People that need that really have some issues.

I see, thanks.

I imagine these kinda people need to wrap their hands up in duct tape to prevent themselves from masturbating.
The new Naruto dub episode reminded me of what an obnoxious twit pre-timeskip Sasuke was. He attempts to kill Naruto, and then: "GRR NARUDOS STRONG TOO IVE GOTTA LEAVE WITH PEDOSNAKE SO I CAN GET STRONGER."
I think I like post-Sasuke better (marginally) now. Sorry for the random Sasuke bash.
Yeah, most people feel the same as you Mr. All Sunday. They think Sasuke Part 2 is slightly more bearable than Part 1. I personally think so too. And I find it hilarious how bad Sasuke is h8tin on Naruto. Brings a tear to my eye
Changing from completely unbearable to only partially unbearable means that the person is still unbearable.
Both of them are equally bad.
At least pre-time skip Sasuke didn't have some nipple slip goin' on.
BLUE T-SHIRT AND WHITE SHORTS isn't much better.
@Mr.:
BLUE T-SHIRT AND WHITE SHORTS isn't much better.
At least that doesn't make nim look like some sort of gay pirate.
I actually like the song for this opening at least, although the half naked Sasuke-Naruto orgy isn't very necessary.
"You might not want to fight me, I'M IN A REALLY BAD MOOD." Ugh.
@Mr.:
BLUE T-SHIRT AND WHITE SHORTS isn't much better.
DARN POLNAREFF FOR WEARING A SHIRT AND PANTS WHAT A DUMB CHARACTER
jojo is such a bad manga now
@Mr.:
"You might not want to fight me, I'M IN A REALLY BAD MOOD." Ugh.
'If you don't mind, I'm going to go post on my Livejournal! So buzz off, dweebs!'
The only thing worse than his first outfit was his second. ALL BLACK I AM THE DARK AVENGER
I will admit that I find new Sasuke to be a little more bearable…...... but I have a feeling I'll regret saying this in the near future.
Sasuke! I'm so in love with you that I can't stand it!
If you leave now, I'll scream!
Almost caught myself tearing from Sakura's confession…but then I realized two things:
1. Sasuke is an idiot and is just playing into crap after being talked down by Kakashi.
2. He keeps saying he wants to do it alone...then suddenly creates "Team Snake" after offing Orochimaru. Guess the avenger needs friends/teammates after all.
The dub tonight reminded me how much I hated part 1 Sakura. Sure in Part 2 she still has the Sasuke obsession but at least she's doing more than just yelling "SASUKE I LOVE YOU SO MUCH I CAN'T STAND IT"
@Geg:

Wait for the Grass arc which is coming up. That's basically what she does, standing there doing absolutely nothing in the face of her god Sasuke.
If I remember correctly she actually runs forward to attack him but Yamato stops her.
It just seems sad: the Gaara arc is just buildup to show that Sakura has changed…but since then she's done little. Its like pt. I all over again....only now Sakura's gone from useless to unfufilled potential in abilities. (that or Tsunade doesn't know as much as other teachers)
But yeah, today's episode nicely summed up what's so bad about Sakura.
I mean, she was willing to betray her village over a boy who has admitted more than once that he finds her annoying. She didn't care about the fact and wanted him to treat her like a doormat as long as she got to go with him. It's pathetic.

sort of like Sasuke and Itachi
sort of like Sasuke and Itachi
Just replace love with 'IM AN AVENGER!' and annoying with 'you lack hatred'
The "love confession" scene is probably the most embarassing part of all Naruto.
It gives me stomach ulcer. And it reminds me why even if part 2 Sakura is somehow tolerable I'll never be able to like the character.
It's a shame really. Kishi can develop a good plot but in the end he's created some annoying characters. Those characters usually end up ruining the plot too.
Most recent chapter was nothing special, but the shit hasn't really gone down yet. Hopefully we see some bad-ass techniques from the rinnegan kid.
See, if Sakura REALLY loved Sasuke, she'd stay in the kitchen and never question the man….This is the tragic flaw in her persuasion and the reason why Sasuke still left.
"Goddamn bitches."

Just leaving the village alone doesn't constitute betrayal. Tsunade and Jiraya have shown us that. Really, I don't get why so many people are willing to lynch these people for walking out of a village. Now, the rest of the stuff that Sasuke did I won't touch.
As for Sakura…meh, I blame the culture. Women love their pretty boys, for reasons I won't bother to understand.
I also love how she madly fell for the guy because AMIGAD HE LOOKS COOL.
What a deep and complex character.
Yeah, when one of a character's first lines are "Sasuke looks so hot!", you know how it's going to go.

It worked for Ino…then again she's the equivalent of the village slut.
