Naruto Discussion V [Re-Re-Redux]

Tokoro Ataru

Looks boring, I guess all the Naruto fans are gonna get hyped because Sasuke's in it!

The fortress with all the faces seemed cool to me.

Personally I sort of wished we would get a bit more depth on Cloud Village considering how they are "Konoha's greatest enemy" and yet both their Jinchuuriki turned out normal compared to Naruto. (which sort of makes me contemplate one new thing with the latest chapter: the whole reason behind the "mini-Kyuubi" is because the power was split, thus 4-tails forces him to change instead of having the chakra around him like the Killer Bee. If Naruto acutally had the means to hold all that power without it consuming him, he probably could go up to 8-tails without any true TF outside power and capability)

As for steampunk in Naruto…well, Rain Village is essentially the version of that in this series...well a proximity of it.

Richard Epcar WILL voice Hachibi when the time comes, I just know it.

Well, Killer Bee is a grown man. No doubt that he has been training for a while and has perfected how to live with the Tailed Beast inside of him.

Nice chapter. The Eaglets were getting the stuffing beat out of them, and apparently Jugo can heal by fusing his flesh to Sasuke. First Karin having people eat her to get better, and now Jugo giving up his flesh. Yeah. Anyway, I was a bit surprised(and a wee bit disappointed) that Eight Tails went all out so fast. That happening makes me think that he won't be around for long, which I really hope isn't true. As another said, I thought we'd see more of his village so we know that Konaha isn't the only village out there that runs….

I must say that the whole Sasuke hype totally starts to annoy me. The only reason and only plot of the series is Naroto, wanting to "save" someone he wasn't actually that close to. I rewatched the earlier naruto episodes and I can't detect a lot of moment where he saw Sasuke as a friend. He despised him, he was jealous of him having infactuated Sakura, he hated him for is better skills,… And that is to only reason Naruto is that persistnat. It is really dissapointing. I hoped Naruto would have matured by know and have a bigger plotline then the average pokemon adventure
I was hoping Sasuke would get killed so we could get on with more interesting characters such as Pain, allthough that I though those so called "ultimate eyes" seemed way weaker then Sharingan to me and to the awesome trainig Naruto is getting. I hope the attention of Naruto will go to Pain mostly and a darker side that is out for revenge for yiraija will show up and that he will become more "evil", meaning a darker kind of person.

Yea let's kill an important main character so we can shift focus on a single villain who was only introduced like 60 some odd chapters ago people need to understand that as much as they hate Sasuke or how much the story focuses on him he's here to stay no amount of wishing or the like is going to change that.

I feel we need less dark and anguished and more light-hearted adventure, sort of like Rurouni Kenshin. Still can be serious but not something that attracts angst.

Rereading 'Untitled'–the early Sai stuff--and why is Naruto acting like such an idiot?

You've read that far into the story & you're asking that now? xD

JulieYBM

Well, a 2.5 year skip should offer the author a conveinent way to have a character mature. Or is Kishimoto that inept?

NightmareLuffy

I barely think Naruto exists now since its story its incredibly pointless. But the US of freaking A still knows Naruto's existence really well. Why can't Naruto and his Overated ass takedown a real opponent with his own skills without the fox.

JulieYBM

People want more Naruto, not more Sasuke. >.>

Sandai Mera

@NightmareLuffy:

If hasn't been obvious since the first chapter Naruto just isn't that skilled in comparison to other characters so he has no choice but to rely on the fox's chakra.

Speak for yourself. I like Sasuke more.

@NightmareLuffy:

Thats like asking why can't Sasuke take out an opponent with out his Sharingan, or why can't Luffy beat anyone with out his DF, and Naruto is not overrated. Not to mention Naruto does bust heads with out the Kyuubi cloak.

Naruto movie is on CN right now (booooring)

oh like you never bought something and haven't went: "damn, why did I waste money on this"?

Jinbei

Lolz, as soon as Sasuke is brought back to life again, he will be regretting using Bowss Manda as a meat shield.

I've made peace with myself for blowing money on Max Payne 2 for the PS2:pouty:.

I'm still waiting for serious repercussions for that. Yeah Manda was kinda evil but he's the freaking BOSS SNAKE, that had to be some sort of disruption to the balance of things. I just want the rest of the snakes to come and squish Sasuke for doing that.

Sandai Mera

Or they could just be happy/indifferent given how feared Manda was.

Salamander Natsu

now see why naruto gotta be different and be the only jinjuuriki shown so far to deny and not accept the power of the beast within them. the whole "hurting your friends with kyuubi's power" is stupid, if he just learn to control the kyuubi like the other jinjuuriki than he won't have to worry about hurting his friends and get a power boost

Jinbei

Easier said then done.

Tho before this manga ends, it will be done.

Yea, seriously, Sasuke needs to get rape by the full might of a/this Bijuu or just any really big summon, and while he is getting his a$$ ravaged, he can reminisce on the fact that if he didn't use Manda as a meat shield, he would not have been in that position.

GEPPETTOSMONSTER

RIP manda we will allways miss you.

Wasurenai

Who cares about manda, bring me the hawk of light.
I recall a color spread with Sasuke and a hawk, if kishimoto goes that way again maybe he will summon a hawk.

Jinbei

Whats that????

Yea and he could've been sent to hell in a handbasket along with Deidara and then we'd have no manga but then again that's giving the people what they want a =P.

Malintex_Terek

How is Manda connected to all this?

Lol true, but I guess that was kish only legit why to get rid of an epic bad mother f**ker such as Boss Summon Manda.
@Malintex_Terek:

Naruto discussion thread, Boss Summon Manda is in the Naruto Manga and anime, there is also Manda merchandise, I don't see how he won't have any connection to all this?:P

@Malintex_Terek:

I know you're not following the series but rather reading random chapters, so I'll cut you some slack:

When Sasuke absorbed Orochimaru, he gained control of Manda, the massive snake summon. However, he killed Manda during the fight with Deidara. Defeated, Deidara turned himself into a massive bomb and was planning to take himself and Sasuke out. In desperation, Sasuke summoned Manda, hopped in his mouth, and let Manda get hit by the blast. Injured, he desummoned into the summon dimension. Suigetsu then summoned Manda and Sasuke back using a vial of Sasuke's blood. Manda died from the injury he sustained in the blast.

Basically, if Manda was still around, he'd be big enough to fight Hachibi. That's what everyone's saying.

Jinbei

Who else besides me thinks Jugo will need some time before he is done healing up Sasuke, and it does not look like Kira Hachi is willing to give them that time, so that leads to the question… Just who will be the meat shield this time? That walking half eaten sensu bean with the name Karin is not a combat type. So I guess the job would be left to Zabuza T1000 (Suigetsu), If whats I ask and thinks is the case I think we can expect some one to die.

Gekko135

found this on /a/

Jinbei

Found what i don't see anything?

GEPPETTOSMONSTER

There is nothing there gecko…or is that the joke?

Jinbei

This is obviously a trick.

A gecko trick at that.;<

GEPPETTOSMONSTER

I knew I should of switched to geico!

Zkaiser

Damned gekkos and their /a/mazing genjutsu.

Gekko135

lol. damn. guess it's gone. sorry to disappoint you

i hope this makes up for it

by the way Zkaiser, that is an awesome avatar

Jinbei

Now that is funny.

Greg

Good ol' Kishi. He kicks fucking ass at creating villains/antagonists and can't make an interesting hero or anti-hero to save himself.

That Manbullpus is wicked.

I think you hit the nail on the head. He makes awesome villains (generally, Pein and Konan still piss me off), then he kills them and denies us their awesomeness.

Meanwhile other manga-ka are leaving him in the dust because they can do both. sigh

NightmareLuffy

Hey Guys Whats happening in the awesome and Amazing world of Naruto?! I agree with you. Amazing villans but horrible heroes/anti-heroes and lame ways to beat the villians.

@GEPPETTOSMONSTER:

i have no freaking clue what the original is from.

Oh, is that all? Here I was thinking Manda had some power that would strengthen Sasuke to fight the 8-Tails.

Thanks for the explanation.

Greg

To this day, Kimimaro is the coolest villain I have seen in manga, hands down.
