The Official Naruto series Thread

He was still living till he got stabbed through the heart

Well his DNA should have records of what he would appear like had he still had a human body hence why Nagato was still a cripple when he came back. But going by this theory Sasori should've came back as a 35 year old man and not a 15 year old.

Well that's the best thing I can think of.

New Rock Lee's Springtime of Youth is out.

So I've noticed something weird. Having read the HST, my arguably favorite characters have one little thing in common: They're all girls!

How did that happen? XO

wait for it....

Have you actually looked at Nico Robin?

Merry Christmas everyone!

Yes Robin is hot but what female could you possibly like in Naruto....cause the only ones worth mentioning are Konan and Chiyo.

Season's Greetings to you folks.

Chiyo is one of my favorite Naruto characters. But I do like Sakura admittedly, just not as much as Chiyo.

Best of the three this week in my humble opinion.

Yeah Naruto was the best.

Spoiler:
Son Goku in Naruto!!! sheesh it appears everyone including the Senju ****ed up the Sennin's wishes considering things such as names are inconsequential for the Biju

Damn....no wonder the Kyuubi is hateful considering everyone who had it treated it like a plaything; even Kushina in a way did so. Making Naruto the first one to actually try an understand it.

I kind of luled at Madara making the Kyuubi look like an impotent loser.

"Nigga you're stupid, you suck, and you smell bad, now shut the **** up and do what I say."

Yea.

Spoiler:
Mito was all, "Stay asleep." Kushina, "This sucks for both of us!", and Hashirama just wanted him contained.

One can see why even famous hosts never progressed to true mastery- once in possession of Kyuubi's chakra, they'd stop, and never ask it for more or try and become friends.

Huh. It will take sometime to get used to the name Kurama. Son shouldn't be so hard.

I liked this chapter. It certainly had a lot of things I wasn't expecting.

Man, like, Kishi IMO made a pretty obvious writing blunder in this chapter.

You don't introduce new themes in the middle of a climax.

The whole "GUY WHO DOESNT EVEN KNOW HIS NAME SUX" thing Kishi is doing.

Well, I think Tobi knows his own name. He just doesn't care.

But in my opinion it works. This is really the only time we've ever gotten to see the Bijuu together so the idea of learning their names is actually pretty cool. The One Tails is probably named Ichigo. :3

Only Kishi is trying to push it as some sort of theme, and doing that so late in the manga is a blunder of writing.

Well, actually, the one tails was the only one whose name we did know. That's kind of strange. Shukaku was always called his proper name, but none of the others were.

Well, it is sorta continuing off of the longer mystery of Tobi's identity and general treatment of the Biju.

Btw, I'm getting the impression that there's three times of jinchuuriki-

First, the weak at heart, like Bee's cousin and young Gaara. Those who can't defeat their own hatred and are eventually consumed/lose control. They may be strong warriors, but they're also timebombs.

Second, the strong. Those who are able to control their own hatred and thus keep the biju contained. Post-Naruto Gaara, Mito, and Kushina all being examples. Pretty much what most villages hope for, some of the recent jinchuuriki may have been this.

Third, the friends. Those who try and succeed in beating their biju's hatred as well. Killerbee, and Naruto being on the track.

Eh, I don't really see it like that. Maybe if names hadn't already been given some importance I'd agree. But we have Jiraiya naming Naruto being the bond that makes Jiraiya his god father, Madara's name being what is essentially the name of a demon to the shinobi world, and Tobi keeping his name a secret along with everything else. That's not even getting started on the last name business one gets with the Uchiha and Senju. I'd argue that names have really always been important, just one of the more subtle themes.
