Well, a lot of people find him cool.

I do not. I was content with Itachi being dead because I thought that wrapped things up with him rather nicely. Him being brought back is making it very obvious to me how boring Itachi really is. And how stupid he is.

Motion controls strike me as gaming's version of the 3D gimmick.

Which is to say I don't see the purpose for them.

Totally agreed, as much as I loved Skyward Sword, I don't need to see every game have this. If motion controls exist in a game I want a controller option also.

I remember you not liking Sasuke because he killed "your Itachi". Have you suddenly seen the light?

A lot of people need to get out more =P

There was a time I thought he was cool.... then he was a good guy.

Dunno, Maybe you weren't talking to me. Sasuke is cooler than Itachi. If that's not a statement then.... er..... 'your face'

I prefer anti-hero Itachi to insane "GIVE ME YOUR LIGHT SASUKE" Itachi, but word. His new role kind of sucks.

I'd find the post if Heaven Or Hell still existed. You said it there.

As it stands, the Internet decided the rotting forum-corpse had lived long enough. haermm

Sasuke is indeed a much cooler and hilarious character than Itachi.

He even gets the best line in the manga.

Did we know he was a good guy at that time?

If so.... the only thing i can guess at was that it hadn't really occurred to me what he being a good guy really meant for the character that had been built up, up until that time.

I can't honestly say I recall every point I switch from liking a character to not.

Best line in the manga and that's the best you can do? =s

Nope! It was right after their fight ended, so we still didn't know he was anything more then insane "GIVE ME YOUR LIIIIII~IIIGHT SASUKE" Itachi.

Dun worry about it. I only remember these things so that I can throw them in peoples' faces later.

You're playing Imperial Guard. ๐Ÿ˜

Why don't you stfu and sympathize with me? You're the worst bf ever.

It was never revealed that he was a good guy until Tobi told him.

That said, if one did not peg Itachi as a good guy from the start, shame on you.

Edit: And yes, that was the best line in the manga. Fans, nonfans, and other characters have been wondering that very same thing and Sasuke comes out and asks him "What the **** is wrong with you!?"

Hilarious. :T

Well to be fair, Itachi being a good guy only makes sense to retarded Naruto logic. From our perspective, someone who is secretly a good guy wouldn't try to kill the good guys, which Itachi's done several times.

If 'one' thinks that someone who butchers their entire family, allow Sasuke (a child) to walk into the scene of the massicare traumatizing him forever, taunt him with these facts then desert the village, could possibly think he had thought:

"I know how to do this right!"

They need to be taken out of the gene pool.

Key word there being tried. Now had Itachi killed Kakashi or something then we'd have a plot hole. Currently we have something that can be rationalized away with ease. ๐Ÿ˜›

Such an obvious villain could never truly be a villain. We aren't reading The Lost Shinigami arc of Bleach. :3

That said, Itachi didn't do Sasuke any favors by snapping his sanity to pieces.

The best lines in Naruto are imo :

"Those who break the rules of the ninja world are trash...yes, that's true. However...those who abandon their friends...are worse than trash." (And Obitos version)

Those lines are certainly central to one of the core themes of Naruto.

Not as hilarious as the Sasuke line though.

How do you rationalize shooting a giant fireball at someone? You can't know with 100% certainty that someone is going to survive your attack, hence the dillema there. If you attack someone with a life ending attack then you might as well have killed them, as far as intent is concerned.

I think they're more emotionally charged. Especially Obito's version. Calling back to what Kakashi said and letting us see see what made Kakashi say that in the first place and what made him the man that he is today. Great stuff.

Being funny isn't all that. I've laughed harder at better jokes in Naruto.

Nah, the best line now would have to be Tobi's "I'm no one..." & "If you want to see what's under my mask, you're going to have to work for it."

It's like he's taunting all of us with our desire to know who he really is. ๐Ÿ˜›

But even though the likely hood of their survival was not strictly 100%, given the players involved, it was certainly more likely than not that they'd survive. Which was sufficient enough for Itachi I suppose.

Well, if we're going to go with emotionally charged lines....will have to find some...

As have I. But that line was borderline lampshading. It made me giggle a lot. I suppose I just find Sasuke hilarious now.

I will agree with that.

Oh yeah, I liked that line. Gave me the impression that Kishi was looking at the internet forums to see if anyone had gotten the right answer. We haven't, so now we have to work harder for it.

Damn it...

Another great line:

'Why do you stand? If you keep pushing yourself, you'll die...'

'He's finally watching me... In front of the person I admire.... I can't look bad!'

Basically screw you DP, Hinata is ****ing awesome. estahuh
