>>283770171>DailyramenWho?
>>283770171>35 million ryoHow much is that in American?
>>283770272Apparently it's a gold based currency, where 1 ryo is 16.5 grams of gold.
>>283770280Hmmm. Is it possible Hidan's weird damage dealing power is linked to that circle he drew and is standing in?
>>283770272Like three million and five hundred thousand dollars.
>>283770335Don't be crazy, it's gotta be his body paint. A water jutsu should wash it right off and break the link between him and Asuma!
>>283770184Such cryptic words...what could he mean by that?
>>283770171kill yourself narutard
>>283770317>>283770362>>283770385>wastes a ton of time yapping and then gets caught in the exact same jutsu as before
>>283770430Hmmm.... I wonder what the loophole would be....
>>283770223>>283770244Even if Hidan is a masochist, he has balls of steel.
>>283770409It took niggas a short time to run from the land of fire to another land in SRA, but they need a full 30 minutes to make it to a spot in their own land?
>>283770470>>283770450RETARDmaru
>>283770505BRAIN BLAST NO JUTSU!
He's breathing and thinking at the same time!?!
>>283770470>>283770491>>283770505True genius.
>>283770537THINKING?HES BRILLIANT
I know people like to shit on obvious stuff like this, but honestly you'd really want to be sure you have it figured out and you're not about to make a huge fuckup if you were in that situation.
>>283770537>let's him foresee up to 200 possibilitiesIt's funny how Kishi goes all out on tropes dumb people use when trying to write smart characters.
Boruto is dogshit.
>>283770470>>283770491>>283770505Dude needed three whole pages to think. Lol.
>>283770460Speaking of SRA even Tayuya was able to overpower the shadow hold, yep I'm thinking Tayuya is Akatsuki tier
>>283770491>>283770505this is like that one bioshock infinite "puzzle"
>>283770223>>283770244>>283770409>>283770450Gee, Asuma, maybe shit wouldn't have gone so far south if your asshole dad taught you his Kage-tier summon
>>283770505The only reason he became a chunnin is because is because his unique overpower jutsu. Even kid Naruto had the same smartness in battle than Shikamaru. fuck Konoha.
>>283770456He's not so much a masochist as he is a sadist, in the sense he enjoys pain as long as others share it with him, IMHO.
>>283770470>>283770491>>283770505MY FUARKING GENIUS!!!
>>283770470>>283770491This two pages are simply too ridiculous to be believed.
>>283770602>Shikamaru: "Wait a minute, that circle..."
>>283770537Thank you for the dump.>>283770575Nah.
>>283770616Did any of the first 4 Kages leave ANY inheritance for their relatives?
>kishi wanking wankamaru for solving a puzzle rated for 0-3yo
>>283770470>>283770491>reputation completely destroyed in the space of two pagesTOTAL SHITKEKMARU DEATH
those guys have just never seen a crazy white guy do witchcraft before give them a break
>>283770758What makes Hidan's jutsu more complex from the others?
Someone add Shikamaru to the fraud list with Sakon and Kurenai
>>283770450I'm getting hilarious Nappa and Vegeta vibes where the job squad over here are getting their ass kicked by Hidan while Kakuzu is just shrugging in the background and can jump in at any time, they did not prepare for this shit in the slightest
>>283770786I think of it like they are always looking for hand signs to analyze the jutsu but overlook the magic circle at first.

>>283770505>>283770491>>283770470AIIEE A CIRCLE SAVE ME ASUMA
>>283770842The bottom panels are funny as fuck because I don't remember all that being necessary to figure out someone's jutsu. Does he need Hidan's credit card number and birth certificate too?
Sakura would've figured out the circle, she made perfect grades in school
See ya anons. Ramen might be unbanned by tomorrow, but if not, I'll post the next chapter around the usual time.
Why didn't Hidan make any attempt at dodging Shikamarus instantwin jutsu that he was already caught in earlier?
i genuinely like shikamaru's part after, but this is just embarrassing. i don't remember it being this poorly written
>>283770940Slowest Akatsuki member.
>>283770923>A circle? What's that?
>>283770505good god
>Hiruzen: should I address the lead water pipes or ponder the ball hmmm...
>>283770758God forbid a white boy get a lil motion
>>283770945What really puts this fight up for scrutiny is that Shikamaru is literally up against the weakest and dumbest member of Akatsuki. He's not fighting the Akatsuki equivalent of himself, he's fighting their equivalent to Naruto.
>>283770825 I hope he fucking dies in bort weve been waiting will see.[/spoiler
>>283770923Sakura gets cut very easily Though
>>283771029Hidan needs to come back as a cyborg for it to be pottery.
>>283770280It's funny how this page basically renders Shikamaru's galaxy brain "analysis" completely redundant, they functionally already know what's going on
>>283771040Sakura pretending to be unconscious against Sasori was smarter than what Shikamaru did this chapter
>>283770995>What really puts this fight up for scrutiny is that Shikamaru is literally up against the weakest and dumbest member of Akatsuki. He's not fighting the Akatsuki equivalent of himself, he's fighting their equivalent to Naruto.Hell, you could argue he's fighting their equivalent of Kiba
>>283770758I just realized Hidan puts on blackface for his voodoo ritual.
>>283771040Sasori let Sakura and Chiyo sit back and yap a lot during that fightThey'd probably let Hidan finish his ritual while being all "What the nani is he doing...-ACK!"
It's been 5 years since the first storytime and Shikamaru's rep on /a/ still hasn't recovered from these pages.
This is the funniest chapter in the manga
>>283770450>kakuzu answering my question of why the fuck he's just standing there doing fuck all
>>283770560It would have been fun if he miscalculated and got Asuma killed for it
I still can't believe that the first three arcs in Part 2 were complete fucking dogshit. How the fuck did Kishi avoid getting axed?
>>283771029>bort >not even cannon
>>283771158Kakuzu just standing there just makes Shikamaru, Asuma, and the others look even worse because Kakuzu could jump in anytime and kill every single one of them.
>>283771180Goodwill from Part I and anticipation for when "The good shit" finally happens.
>>283771180Sasuke fans were keeping the manga up ?
>>283770560Plus this whole chapter probably takes place within like a single a minute, honestly the dialogue word phrasing being a little less cringe would have saved some face for Shikamaru
I thought Kishi was meant to wank his muh self insert deermaru. This type of "ANALYSING what the opponent said out loud" is 30 steps below Sasuke retrieval arc what the fuck? And he gets hottest girl on the continent?
>>283771244He's barely in the manga at this point
>>283771180The franchise was doing well in Japan AND overseas, why would they axe
AFTER this arc we're getting to the hype shit with a deep narrative, I swear this time.
How long is the humiliation ritual, like 2-3 extra chapters?
>>283771182I feel like if this happened it would’ve been better than boruto, maybe at least make boruto into a humble genius prodigy like minato.>the fandom makes batter cannon shit then the actual writers lol.
>>283771180Akatsuki is cool in concept and aesthetics.
>>283771332I cant wait for Tayuya Shippuden
>>283770575Against my better judgement I tried to read it several times, and it was laughably bad. Probably the worst manga I've ever seen.
>>283770537>200 IQ>200 possibilitiesWhat silly shit lol and thinking while using jutsu are seen as impressive now because shikamaru does it kek
>>283771347Akatsuki hype was so huge back in the day, not surprising the series started to falloff a bit towards the tailend of the series
>>283770470>>283770491I can't remember Shikamaru or these chapters getting as much flak back in the day, but I wasn't active in fan communities. Did people make fun of it the day it released too?
>>283770575Cope
>>283770804Nappa would respect Naruto more for crippling him with the Rasenshuriken as opposed to getting has back broken by Goku.
>>283770537>>283771384Lmao. Is that even how IQ points are supposed to work?
>>283770804The fact that they manage to escape from this with only one death is a miracle
>>283770537>BRAAAAP
>>283771483It's only because Hidan and Kakuzu's leader (Yondaime?!) told them to retreat.
>>283771412>Did people make fun of it the day it released too?No. 4chan just shits on everything.
Shikamaru and and his team being retarded here has the unfortunate side-effect of making Kakuzu and Hidan look far less threatening than the previous Akatsuki pair
>>283770682>>283771425
>>283771412Back in day people praise this story for showing how genius shikamaru is
>>283770430>If we kill that AkatsukiYou do remember he's immortal right.
>>283770505Brain blast!
Hiashi won.
>>283771628Maybe they think cutting off his head counts for the purpose of nullifying the jutsu
>>283770537So this must be the legendary ADVANCED glazing...
>>283771686>brother is dead>nephew is dead>daughter is sealedHiashi lost.
>>283770470>>283770491>>283770505>>283770537This is the power of 200 IQ!?!?
>>283770537>>283770908>>283770925Arigatou, OUR LEADER!>>283770923Sakura already has a circle of her own.
>>283770706To be fair, Minato left a big one.
>>283770537Thanks OP
>>283771719Still believe the dude should've died instead of Neji.
>>283770706Minato did. >put the demon fox in Naruto >put a safeguard version of himself in the seal>put another safeguard version of Kushina in the seal>created the Rasengan which was always meant to be handed down to Naruto>Jiraiya only taught him Toad summons because of who his dad was
>Give me more handjobs Kishimoto, this is the weakest Akatsuki member we're up against!
Sasuke would've figured Hidan's gimmick in a second.
Suspension of disbelief and all, but no logical human being would've ignored the satanic blood circle Hidan deliberately drew for this long. Hell, how many would've actually allowed him to do it in the first place? I can't tell if I'm being nitpicky or if this is a genuine flaw.
>>283770923She would have just cried
Would Asuma also feel anything if Hidan had sex in that circle or is it just for pain?
>>283771929Her tears will clean the seal on the floor!What a marvelous display Sakura-san!!!
>>283771951
>>283771585It's never getting axed, anon.
>>283771951for the sake of doujinshi lets say yes
>>283771913Team Jobber was huddled together as a group for at least a few minutes. In this chapter, only about ten have passed since they found Hidan and Kakuzu and called for backup and the little skirmish between those two guys skewering Hidan couldn't have taken longer than a minute at most. Meaning they stood there and stared at Hidan taking the time to draw a perfect circle of blood on the floor and didn't notice anything weird or notable about it at all.
>>283770537Kidomaru could have NEVER figured this out while using a jutsu btw.
They don't come out and call Hidan a powerhouse, but he has to be strong as fuck to be casually one-handed swinging around that multi-scythe. When he swings it towards Asuma, at range, its assumed that it happens too fast to dodge. The blades are clearly longer than his knuckles dusters, yet he attempts (and fails, even though he can see the multi blades) to block. This implies he had no other choice. The blades don't even come out of a compartment and surprise him, he fully intended or was forced to block with both hands (and fail) a weapon swung at range with one hand.That or its just horrible writing
>>283771975Her tears will job as well. No escape.
>>283771913I think letting him draw the circle is kinda fine, since it doesnt seem that meaningful at first and they're both trying to stall for time and trying to regroup and adjust their plan on the fly.
>>283772015Asuma just can't fathom dodging giant weapons being swung at him single-handedly. It's a known character flaw..
>>283771585>can't retain naruto fans or boruto readersWhy does this exist again?
>>283772014Kidomaru would probably test first to be sure that the assumption that Hidan's circle is what's causing the link is true.
>>283771951im glad this fight takes place near a mens washroom so they could figure it out there.
>>283771913>Suspension of disbelief and allthis isn't even the worst of it
>>283772051It sells more than anything else in V-Jump.
>>283772050This cut completely incapacitated him from the battle.
>>283772051Shueisha wanted something Naruto-related after Kishi turned them down and didn't want a drought of content like the one that happened to DB in the 2000s.
>>283772088>DroughtWhat about the games???
>>283772072...besides the BVLL of V-Jump, of course.
>>283771951Imagine if he raped Yugito whi,e in the circle and she felt both her own and his orgasm at the same time...
>>283772105DBS is currently on hiatus though, so it's not seeling anything.
>>283772102Shueisha has nothing to do with those. Same as now Bamco gets games made that are just collections gatcha or like one new title (Shinobi Striker). There's a reason why they don't give Boruto its own dedicated console series.
>>283772111NOOOOOOOOOOLEAVE HER ALONE!!!
>>283772015Think of the time Tsunade handled Gamabunta's sword
>>283772061>>283772014Kidomaru no-diffs Hidan. He stays at a range too effective to get his blood drawn, and even if by some miracle he did, Kido's speciality is high powered attacks delivered to a single precise spot. He can blow Hidan off his circle, since Hidan relies on self-damage taking out his target before they can force him off of it.
Did Kishi drawed this?Hidan lookin kind of gangsta
>>283771547To be honest, old Narutofags (and the current ones to some extend) were very selective when it came to be mad about shit that happens in the manga.Shikamaru making the most bullshit maneuver on Hidan despite embarrasingly jobbing to him earlier? Fine.Sasuke beating a bedriden Orochimaru? You jumped the gun Kishimoto!
>>283772111No....>>283772191ZAMN! Konan's carrying THAT?!?!
It's really annoying in particular because both Kakuzu and Hidan have to act like the dumbest motherfuckers alive to even allow Shikamaru his galaxy brain glazing. Hidan being a brat, sure, that makes sense, but Kakuzu just standing there and watching this dumbshit happen instead of killing off the other three so Hidan can do his bullshit freely is retarded.
>>283772084Is it possible that Asuma is just lazy/cowardly, and intentionally takes a superficial blow early on so he can sit out the rest of the fight, and he only dies because he tried it against the one guy who can kill you from your blood alone?He keeps jumping in front of these giant two handed weapon fielders>don't worry guys, I'll take this guy to melee with my pocket knives>OOF, I'm down, you guys handle this, I'm going back to fuck Kurenai
>>283772192Shikamaru was seen as one of the "cool" characters back then while Sasuke was seen as cringe. So it didn't matter if Shikamaru had a bullshit performance because he was one of the fandom approved characters. Plus, Sasuke taking over the story later supersedes whatever Shikamaru did in one arc.
>>283772235Died from being too based...
Suppose Hidan meets some guy with the same geometry ability. Then:1. they both taste each other2. they both stand in their circles3. Hidan injures himselfWould the pain recursion occur?
Powerlevels aside, Kidomaru would've talked Sakon into letting himself get his blood taken by Hidan because of his regen, so they could test the extent of Hidan's powers without casualties.
>>283772191Yeah Konan never lose her robe and show us her dress
Speaking of Kakuzu I find it weird that he’s advertised as a dude whose killed several of his Akatsuki partners before, implying he goes on psycho rage moments, but basically the whole time he acts like a pretty professional and collected dude
>>283771547No, this deserves to get shit on.
>>283772287I guess when he goes into his jobber form to prepared for getting oneshot he seems a bit unhinged, but yeah it's kinda weird.
>>283772287He's chilled out since convincing his boyfriend to join the Akatsuki.
>>283772287I take that Kakuzu has just given up after so many failed attempts to kill Hidan. The dude just became an unwanted stress ball.
>>283772287You answered yourself, the psycho rage moments are moments
I wonder who people theorized to be Tobi's duo back in the day.Honestly, why wasn't Tobi one of Kakuzu's partners at one point?
>>283772285
>>283772279>Thinking professional jobber Sakon wouldn't fumble the bag.
