Akatsuki Suppression MissionChapter 316: Let the Training Begin!!Previous chapter: >>283563304Start: https://desuarchive.org/_/search/boards/a.desu.meta/subject/Daily%20Naruto%20Chapter/filter/text/page/8/Dailyramen is busy cleansing the Senjus. I will be posting until he returns.
>>283585519>according to the databooks most of the Konoha 12 kids have at least 2 nature transformations but we never see any of them use them at all
>>283585719does yamato eventually undo this mountain he created or does he just casually fuck with konoha's topography permanently
>>283585831It stays there for at least as long as this training goes on, who knows after that. Stone still couldn't just rebuild that bridge in Kakashi Gaiden with Earth Jutsu btw.
>>283585833Sometimes a think he was worse than kakashi , mother fucker was an a1 slacker.
>>283585914>イチャイチャパラダイス
>>283585939I hate that they dropped the concept of the rings.
>>283585429Goku solos
It's still so funny how it took Kishi more than 300 chapters to explain something as basic to the story's setting as nature transformations. This is like playing pokemon and getting a tutorial on type matchups after you've already gotten half of all the gym badges.
I wonder if this exposition and training dump would be less boring if instead of Hidan and Kakuzu instanloss 2komaing Yugito and the monk he developed the story of them capturing Yugito a bit more and wove it into this. On the other hand it might just stretch the "nothing happens" out even more.
>>283585429>Naruto and Sakura spend more time together>They have better chemistry than they did with their actual partners>They're both extroverts and have lots in common>They know each other better than they know themselves>Sakura would keep Naruto on tabs to make sure he doesn't overdo anything or hurt himself>They are childhood best friends>They were their for each other through thick and thin>Naruto saved her life MANY times>Sakura actually has self-respect and dignity around >Naruto unlike with a certain >rogue criminal who always puts her down and makes her feel bad about herself>Naruto is happier around her>Naruto always comforts her when she is feeling sadSakura always values Naruto's ambitions and dreams>Sakura saved Naruto's life a handful of times also.You cant say that there was never any chemistry in the two.Rebuttal>sakura mistreated him>never returned his affection> Kishimoto was dead set on sasuke and Sakura from the get go as he claims.>sakura was the most hated character
>>283586000... the diaper filling competition
>>283585744Cute Haku, this is an original panel and not just a reused one, right?
>>283586226Yes. The part 1 artstyle is a lot rougher, and Kishi didn't draw Haku with lipstick back then. He carries over this design of Haku to when he's Edo'd.
>>283585763>Jiraiya was teaching Naruto the basic that's why he didn't teach him anything >Naruto doesn't know any of the basicsJiraiya what did you teach him! No really what!?
See ya tomorrow, anons.
>>283586320Thank you anon
>>283586150Chadruto vs the virgin sassgay.
>>283586320Thanks op
>>283585763>>283586125Silly Naruto, if we explain this stuff in the main story then we won’t be able to sell you guidebooks!
>>283585429>>283586150Thats what i have been trying to say if only kishimoto would know how to properly write.
I just looked at the pictures for this chapter and the last. Can someone give me a tldr for both?
>>283586561Jiraiya didn't teach Naruto anything over 3 years and Kakashi has to explain the basics of Chakra and Ninjutsu. Also just forget about the timeskip and pretend like every just fell into a time warp that aged them.
>>283586561Exposition that will be retconned or ignored anyways.
welp, thread was good while it lasted, see you guys tomorrow
>>283586644Just do your part if you can, anon.
>>283585519>Yamato randomly commit suicide
Go back to your containment shipping thread you insufferable retard
>mod actually deleted the shippingtard's postskek, get fucked.
>>283585519So which natures does Gai use?
>>283585519Sakura is the same as Chadmato, he should be training her
>>283585694>>283585719>>283585744It feels weird that elements are kekkei genkai too, it feels like the concept of combining elements to make a new one would feel more like an advanced technique rather than some family-exclusive stuff with how simplistic it’s portrayed
>>283587011Kishimoto is just really obsessed with any ability worthwile being tied to genes for some reason.
>element releasecouldn't Sakura get in on this? isn't she the best at chakra control?
>>283586024I'm wondering if it's an issue with trying to pivot to be like other manga, taking in as many influences at once when the old stuff starts to get repetitive. Other manga try to lay out that stuff early on to catch intrigue and avoid getting the axe.
>>283587085The best we can do is give you a few miscellaneous statements about her surpassing Tsunade. Please understand.
>>283587091It's probably that he got inspired by some other media (manga, game, whatever) and though it was cool so he tried to add it into Naruto aswell.
>>283585744This is cute
>>283585429What even is this cover?
>>283587107My favorite is when she's said to be the greatest talent since Shizune, even though Shizune is already completely useless.
why does naruto need videogame shit like elemental weaknesses
>>283587085Kishi would die before giving Sakura some more attention, he’s still washing the taste of the Sasori fight out of his mouth
>>283587136uzumaki > air > wind release > spiral = uzumaki
>>283585429EARLY???
>>283585744Haku becomes more feminine as the story goes on.
>>283586320>>283586298>>283585939>>283585914Arigatou, OUR LEADER!
>>283585719So how powerfull she is with 2 combined chakra natures ? Or Third Tsuchikage who can combine 3 elements
>>283586371Naruto canonically has a small dick.
>>283587342I heard he was supposed to be a girl, but the editor thought that the relationship with Zabuza would be too weird and groomy, so they changed it to a guy (which made it even weirder).
>>283585744>>283587011Maybe a better way of doing it would be to have combining two elements to form a new one is an advanced technique anyone can do, but people with kekei genkai are able to do a unique broken jutsu using the element, like Haku's ice mirrors.
>>283587395We only have a source for him originally being a boy.I remember hearing he was supposed to be a girl but it wasn't from, you know, a japanese/reliable source.
>>283586260>Jiraiya what did you teach him! No really what!?I think they were just visiting whorehouses
>>283587374As powerful/weak as they needed to be to not be relevant when Naruto fights against the antagonists.
>>283587438With Naruto's money at that.
>>283587395>>283587430I still think the shudo inspiration theory is far more plausible.
>>283587430I mean a BEAR not a boy.
>>283585763It's nice seeing him interested in the world surrounding him
>>283586935Did he survived war ?
>3 elements mixed together gives you a hydrogen bomb
>>283587547only chuunin went
>>283586946Katon and Raiton according to Wiki
>>283587560He passed during the time skip.
>>283587572>Gai has it>Hinata has it>Sasuke has itI have a theory that Sasuke must have been born with a bowl cut but his parents intentionally messed it up for the duckbutt cut.
>>283585875Why'd Asuma flip-off Shikamaru
>>283585438>able to cut, tear, and sever anything in its pathYou mean lightning?
>>283586150>>283586371This is cringe
>>283587459What money ? he was orphan and genin.If he inherited anything from Minato,Hiruzen stoled it.
>>283587395Wasn't he originally a bear?
I think yesterday was the most comfy thread we ever had. No sakuraspam, no sasujeeting, no OP drama, and a 5th of the thread more of a dragonball discussion than /dbs/ has ever had. I'm proud of some of you.
>>28358754712 years chuunins against Edo Madara. Grim
>>283587727Then how come the thread was still as shitty as ever?
>>283585489>>283585519>casually creates a waterfallHoly FUARK a kage tier feat!
>>283587374How does she not melt her own skin
>>283587691Jiraiya actually forced Naruto to gamble to get money.
>shipfag gimmick gets raped by jannies>sasjeet immediately flares upi’m noooooooticing
>>283585831Bros gotta flex where he can
>>283587704The rumour says it went from bear to girl to boy.
>>283587688>Waifufag clickbait>Naruto is somehow more sexualized than Tayuya
>>283587774>>283587691>>283587438Worse. He was pimping out Naruto
>>283587754ultimately it's still a Naruto thread.>>283587691>hokage dies in line of duty>son gets nothing, no inheritance and a pretty ordinary living spacekonoha really takes care of their own
>>283587128I love how smug he looks in death lmao
>>283586260How to haggle with whores
>>283587920With asuma seems consistent
My hole is bigger than yours
>>283588025what if Itachi HYPNOTIZED Sasuke into being an asshole after he woke up from the Tsukuyomi Part 8 (30:48)
>>283585875>A sacrificial piece huhHow ominus
>>283585763TARDruto....
>>283587727In his defense kishi really is a bad writer ionly reason Sakura is not fucking Naruto's Brains out, Then make Anko skinny again. Execute Orochimaru,Remove the futuristic crap Also all the alien bs sounds stupid as fuck.
>>283588077He really could have been less mean with Sakura's apple
>>283588132Your forgot to mention>Yugito beats Hidan and Kakuzu
>>283588154Bitch you didn't get all the skin, I can't eat this.
>>283588132What the fuck are you babbling about???
>>283588154Not just the apple the plate of flood , and cup of water and also naruto
>>283588208If Kishimoto was a good writer SHARTkamaru would've been devapitated by Hidan to showcase that revenge being bad applies to everyone.
>>283586024And it took 500 chapters for Haki to be brought up. We always knew implicitly how this shit in Naruto worked anyways. >>283587011We see what happens when normal people try to do it like that, it either buffs one element or cancels shit out.
>>283588132what post were you trying to reply to, this is schizobabble
>>283588273*DECAPITATED*AAAAAAA
>He's now crying about Anko being fatLow test.
>>283588273Ok, so Hidan decapitates Shikamaru and is then taken out by Yugito. Do we have a deal?
>>283588385Yes.
>>283588273This would've been nice. The storytime + these dailies have done a number on my opinion of Shikamaru, rightfully so.
>>283585763>Naruto asks valid questions about the power system but Kakashi shuts him up cause training him wrong is funny
8 more days until Total Shitkekmaru Death
>>283585763>Naruto it's a good question>but you're clearly on the slow bus and we don't have all day
Hiashi won.
thanks OP>>283585854Wasn't that bridge rebar and concrete? I don't think they could easily replace that
>>283585462Two ".........." panels in a single page.
Honestly better off if he just dropped dead in exchange for neji can that be done in exchange for neji
>>283587011There's no Wind + Lightning combination I think.
>>283585763Naruto is asking important questions for a change.
>>283588132What does naruto need fixing with ?? Other than the aliens
>>283585763Yin and Yang btw.
>>283585763>..............
>>283589103>ignored anyway
>>283585914It's Kishi's manga so he can declare it works, but I don't think this'd work? You don't try something 500 times for the sake of repetition, you're using prior attempts to adjust and try different things. Naruto's hasn't practiced piano x1000 quicker, he's gained 1000 copies of people struggling with Chopsticks. At best, he gets the intuition of the shadow clone who made it furthest (which is very useful tbf), unless the merge is doing utterly godlike memory filtering and merge conflicts.
>>283585694So what if you combine three at once? You only have two hands after all.
>>283589365have you ever masturbated with both hands?
>>283589352Already explained last thread.It's sort of comparable to certain AI training, where they constantly learn from the "best" version.So now that Naruto managed to get a start, he'd have to reset the clones, gain the knowledge and repeat.Of course it won't ever be actually as efficient as 1000 times, but it's up there in making some level of sense.
>>283585744so what two natures are sharingan?
>>283586648Ngl the skin color contrast along with hair color does match
>>283585895naruto, the king.
>>283588132He was unironically right when he said he doesn't know how to write Women.And I say this as someone who likes Hinata.
>>283585763SMARTruto asking questions!
>>283589698Wouldn't it be the Daimyo instead.
>>283587388Sorce
>>283589421Ah okay, that's less silly. It's not x1000 faster training, it's picking the best attempt out of 1000 tries and iterating from there.He should scatter his clones and vary the experiences as much as possible. Have some work in groups, have some work in the forest and others by waterfalls, have some take a quick nap and others take a jog. Get as many different experiences as possible, and see if some mental state sparks an insight.
>>283589698>>283589781What DID he actually mean though?
>>283588132Retard.
>>283589796Fufu......
>>283589796When the time comes, you'll know.
>Fucking late…. >Thread derailed by ship Cucks No moDssss
>>283589791Sai, he saw it.
>>283589940Wait what wasn’t that a compliment??!
>>283589922You can bring it back on rails by making an on topic post.
>>283589922I never understood the autism of shipfags. Romance is the worst part of any shonen.
My favorite pair in the series
>>283590254Based
>>283586946Punch and kick.
>>283590254Jiraiya...
>>283587011I remember catching this episode on TV and thinking it was such a cool idea. Having basic elements that combine into more advanced ones.I must have missed the part where you needed a special bloodline to do it, which makes it less cool in my opinion.
>>283586260He taught him that the way he writes "ta" looks like a 9.This will be important.
>>283585763>Naruto actually asks a valid question >doesn't get an answerKishimoto...
>>283585763>Kakashi-sensei aren't you retconning the powersystem a little too much, this makes no sense with any of the existing abilities>well... you know... uhh... shut up
>>283589352Maybe as soon as one clone makes any progress, it can dissipate and transfer that progress to every clone?So it's more like Naruto can bruteforce improvement faster than anyone else.
>>283587547He died in the chunin exams forest
>>283585438If wind is so unrivaled, while is Sand, the wind specialty village, such a neutered shithole
>>283590254106
>>283588101I'm sure he'll be fine. That's why you on the nose to be actual foreshadowing.
>>283587011Avatar and Korra basically did that with all the advanced bending like metal, blood, lightning, lava, ice, sand, mud, etc. No genetics needed, though it made it easier for some.
>>283590814Never mind, just read ahead. He's fucking dead.
>>283590812What kind of dojutsu does Jiraiya have?
>>283590254>>283590812>>283590947
>>283591021Where do you gain this kind of knowledge?
>>283585519>>283585489remember the sarutobi vs orochimarua kage level fight
>>283591177
>>283591351I feel like their proportions are probably not all that consistent throughout the anime.
>>283591021What about sakura ??
>>283591021This is Samui propaganda.
>>283591209Remember one jutsu of controlling a bit of water taking over 40 hand signs
>>283591519Let her have this win...
>>283591523this gets funnier all the time. especially when Kisame drops the two best water jutsu in the series much later on and they're 1 and 3 hand signs respectively, for the dome and the absorption shark bullet
>>283591551She was too powerful. Kishi had to use a bullshit auto-lose jutsu to remove her from the story
>>283591725I didn't read the war arc, but reading about this "fight" on the wiki it sounded like the dumbest shit ever.
>>283590014Lets talk about boruto
>>283591910Since Kurama respawned in Himawari due to her inheriting Kuramas chakra, Shouldn't have Minato just killed Kurama so he can respawn in Naruto in a few years? He had the whiskers straight out of the womb just like Bort and Himawari did, PLUS he would probably be better at taming a younger kurama
>>283585489>>283585519>Pulls some kage level bullshit casually just to flex Power creep was not kind to part 1
>>283585744All this exposition should have been after land of waves. It honestly feels like something that kishimoto never found the time to implement into a chapter or two until to this very point
>>283590793I can’t remember who uses wind besides Temari and Baki, honestly
>>283591910I cannot look at this without seeing the Jeremy Meeks mugshot
>>283587388Maybe he's just a grower
WIND SHTYLE
>>283592123>All this exposition should have been after land of waves.In fact it’s actually super weird thinking about how Naruto, of all people, never asked about elemental stuff beforehand (prompting a perfect exposition dump), because even though he’s a brainlet you’d expect him to be curious as to why Sasuke can shoot fireballs but he can’t
>>283592222Good point
Nartudo defeated Kiba with wind style
>>283592128well there are 6 characters from Suna, 3 of them are Puppet masters and last of them jinchuriki who actually uses Fūton
>>283585895Jesus, that tree is fucking dead or at least severely crippled
>>283592217Do you think Donzo enhances his wind style with stinky breath? He summons most of his jutsus orally.
>>283591973That happened pre Minato wankfest, he probably couldn't do shit to Kurama back then.
>>283591973Probably, theres this theory that a lot of fans claim that boruto will need to eventually time travel in the second series in order to save his current universe.Some say he might go back and save minato and kushina from the 9 tails attack by killing obito with the helpOf sarada manipulating the 9 tails.This would then give kishi a good reason to reboot the franchise since it would cause an alternate reality.
>>283591973The answer to this is that this kind of plot wasn't thought up yet and in-universe Minato wouldn't even know that would happen.
>borushart
>>283592461What happened in the boruto verse ????
>>283591973Is reborn young Kurama as strong as adult Kurama?
>>283592424Kushina's plan was to have Kurama resealed back into her and let it die with her, but:>We've learned in the original series that doing that would just rejuvenate her and stop her from dying.>And if she did somehow die with Kurama, he would've just re spawned in Naruto years later, going by what happened with Himawari in Boruto.In other words, Minato didn't have to fucking kill himself.
>>283592584Minato REALLY didn't want to be a (single) dad, please understand.
>>283591973>>283592505killing kurama, if you even could, is probably the worst thing you could do in-universe. They're your WMDs, you'll be without one for years, and when it does respawn you're back to square one and another village might seal it before you can get it back.It begs the massive question of why 3-tails was just hanging out where it was, beyond showing the reader that not every biju has a host. You may as well have put a big FREE or "Akatsuki Welcome!" sign outside his lake.
>>283592639Yagura, the 4th Mizukage, was its Jinchuuriki, and he was apparently killed when he was overthrown and thus his Bijuu died with him and came back in a random place later.
>>283592619I believe you in the manga he went as far as suicide in order to get kushina to snap out of it.
>>283592619I'd off myself too if I lost her
Would you not kys if Naruto was your son?
>>283585519Yo dis be on sum Bionicle shit right now nigga
>>283592722>be a Kage and jinchuuriki>job horribly offscreen
>>283592899Imagine being a perfect jinchuriki and jobbing to genjutsu
>>283591910Minato is way cooler than bort , and i like how his hobby was to invent new jutsu and give it cool names.
>>283590793/ourgirl/ is hogging all the good wind powers
>>283585519>I can use natures other than just lightning y'knowThen why don't you use the Mr."knows over a thousand jutsu"?
>>283593173>Sure thing! *makes an earth wall*
>>283592936>Has Killer Bee break out of Sasuke attempt to genjutsu him.>Later say Perfect Jinhcuuriki Yagura was put under a genjutsu.So who was the actual perfect Jinchuuriki?
>>283592722i know that but why did no one from Kiri go and get it. did it respawn days before Deidara/Tobi showed up for it? I guess it's possible
>>283592898she'd throw that Tobi-cat at the wall if she knew what was good for her
>>283592639>They're your WMDThey can't even control Kurama.
>>283593272How many people were even aware that a Bijuu respawns?
>>283593208>Sure thing!>it's offscreen
>>283592461 this shit would make one hell of a twist, But rewriting the entire naruto franchise all over again would be extremely exhausting for kishimotoAnybody write that down , or analyze this maybe add some thought
>>283593440He doesn’t do any of the writing, its all supervised by ikemoto.
>>283593173Kakashi is opening up for the first time after dismissing Naruto as an idiot. He finds out Sasuke's taking drugs and hanging with Orochimaru, he puts effort into Naruto now since he has unlimited potential.
>>283593434This was such bullshit
>>283592536Boruto is canon were you like it not and will be around for another 5-8 years at least.
>>283593440The original was a masterpiece and deserves to not be touched.
>>283592773How the fuck did he survive that?
>>283592461This is just fandom cope and wish fulfillment.
>>283593702Tsunade thats all i can say,
>>283593434What fight was this from?
>>283592773Minato TANKED that
>>283593984I was under the impression Tsuande left Konoha soon after Dan died in the second war, but she's still around years later. She sure took her time before running off
>>283593632Reminder Sasuke never took drugs. That was just Tsunade and Sakura's cope at OUR HERO's strength.
>>283593996His fight against the Zetsus and the 7 mist swordsmen in ch.524
>>283593996It was during the war right after they sealed Haku and Zabuza
>>283594077I don't think they realized how broken the Sharingan is
>>283594047Kishi doesn't pay that much attention to his story
>>283594021Kurama got his ass in the end.
>>283594047Classic kishi inconsistency, so lets see here minato and kushina were definitely 16 in the manga , meaning jiraiya and tsunade were in their 30s and she left the village in her twenties so yea.
>>283593913But an interesting concept nonetheless.
>>283594164or how broken actually training instead of going on a years-long bar crawl is
>>283586946I think Fire was one of them, in the series he's also used the summon jutsu anyway.
>>283585519Wtf why is Yamato not this strong during battle?
>>283591551Have people made anal vore edits with this?
>>283592639>bort travels to fix issues>after chapter 700>Bort returns home with pink hair and green eyesThe absolute shitshow unfolds.
>>283594164>can see chakra>can read lips >can mimic movement>can copy any non-kekkei genkai jutsu>can see the future movements of people faster than you>can use genjutsu strong enough to control any of the 9 tailed beasts>can use genjutsu that can alter your perception of time>can use genjutsu that can mind control you without you even knowing it>can use genjutsu that can put you in a endless loop without even looking you in the eyes>can make portals to other dimensions>can make flames that never go out >can make a bijuu tier chakra mech>can wield spirit weapons (totsuka blade) with said chakra mech that can oneshot you >can ALTER FUCKING REALITY TO UNDO YOUR OWN DEATHPart 2's sharingan was a mistake.
>>283594715Based Bort making sure Nalt fucks Tayuya and then wears contacts
>>283594077iirc the whole konoha squad needed to take drugs to recover from CHADroboMy memory is fuzzy but maybe that was an anime-only thing
>>283594715Naruto and Tayuya's kid looks handsome.
>>283594994That is filler yeah.
>>283594824Could’ve been karin or else who else had pink hair in the series that i could think of. ?????
>>283588132>Execute OrochimaruWhat did he do to you , dont you understand snake like pedophile faggot micheal jacksons need some affection to
>>283595033What a weird addition
>>283595491why does he jump in front of him unguarded liek that
>>283592584>And if she did somehow die with Kurama, he would've just re spawned in Naruto years later, going by what happened with Himawari in Boruto.Naruto is a human not whatever his daughter is, that wouldn't ever happen in a scenario where Kushina dies as a jinchuriki.
>>283595528I'm pretty sure that's also anime-only but it's pathetic single Nardo summons a single shadow clone to try to attack him
>>283595664Jirobo deserves this slight win before dying to fat butterfly faggot. I'll consider it canon.
>>283595595Himawari is a human. Boruto is the one whose body has been converted into mostly alien due to Karma.
Im not the sakura schizo but I'll agree that Kishi is a shit writer, especially for shipping, Naruto getting with sakura makes the most sense out of all the pairings for the main characters.Despite maybe leaving hinata out of question, unless you factor in that sakura was originally planned to step in for naruto during the pain arc.

>>283595834It made the most sense until Kishi did the fake confession bullshit.
>>283589131>What does naruto need fixing with ?? Other than the aliensNTA but, what needs fixing off the top of my head is this:- get to see team 7 go on more missions (on-screen) in Part 1 before the chunin exams- Sakura is not a useless cunt in Part 1- the main cast use more weapon types besides shuriken and kunai, picrel- summons are used more- Naruto after the timeskip should be stronger and know more things - Sasuke should've gotten a decent fight against the new team 7 instead of such a one-sided stomp- Orochimaru should've stayed dead- mini arcs of new team 7 doing missions- Jiraiya and Naruto spend more time together in Part 2- Naruto vs Kakuzu is longer and Nart has help from the others- only Kakashi gets brought back to life, the others stay dead- some of the bullshit hax powers the sharingan had can stay, but shouldn't be sharingan powers - no chakra mech shit- reduce the amount of edos revived in the war arc- more people die in the war arc like Tenten, Kiba, or something- no twist that reveal that the masked man isn't Madara, he is in fact Madara, and Obito is long dead- Guy dies after using the 8th gate, but it also has some lasting damage on Madara where he's not as powerful afterwards- no six paths powerups from Hagoromo- Naruto fucks Hinata on-screen
>>283595918>Orochimaru should've stayed deadwhich time?
>>283595834I was watching ep 192 of the original series , were ino has to act like a double for some princess while naruto is her body double.Funny episode, and it really made me realize how less of a bitch ino was compared to sakura.
>>283595834>unless you factor in that sakura was originally planned to step in for naruto during the pain arc.There's no proof of this.
>>283595292>that picGross. Orochimaru is canonically handsome.
>>283595964He only "died" once. I don't recall a second time.
>>283595918>no twist that reveal that the masked man isn't Madara, he is in fact Madara, and Obito is long deadthat would be retarded since it was long since known it was obito. Down to the name, ability, and which side the eye was on. Anime onlys didn't get it because Kakashi gaiden is supposed to be seen between part 1 and 2 which makes Tobi's true identity painfully obvious.
>>283596009The first time he came back from death inside Saucegay's body during the Itachi fight
>>283595918>Guy dies after using the 8th gate.Nooooooo
>>283585763How many fan letters did Kishimoto receive to make him put up this page to shut them up?
>>283596009He technically died like three or four times between part 1 and the reanimation of the previous hokage
>>283595903He should’ve done a follow up to that after they confronted sasuke, were she apologizes for everything and reciprocated his feelings and catches feelings after sasuke tried to kill her.But then gets shit down again by naruto kek
#283595834
>>2835959188th gate Guy revealing that like Kiba he can use the shadow clone jutsu, hits Madara with consecutive Night Guy attacks and they both die.
>>283596131>He technically died like three or four times between part 1Body switching isn't him dying.
>>283595918Naruto's character was already ruined in early part 2 and hit rock bottom when Kishimoto had him praise Itachi for Killing Sasuke's family.
>>283596031You didn't read the manga while it was coming out
>>283596031>that would be retarded since...Nah. Could've just had it where Madara stole Obito's eye.
>>283596239Itachi wasn't as cool as Obito though.
>>283596239>Kishimoto had him rightfully praise Itachi for for protecting the village from traitors trying to starting a coupBased Ruto.
>>283596236>sasuke kills him and absorbs him1.>itatchi seals him with the totska blade2.>the reaper gouges his guts open as he transports to a white zetsu clone.3.
>>283596345>itatchi seals him with the totska bladeRight "seals", not kill.>as he transports to a white zetsu cloneBody switching isn't him dying.
>>283595834Well I've been rereading Naruto and the First 2 arcs of Shippuden are definitely full of bait and obvious trolling from kishimoto's side. Like he purposefully wrote scenes that in retrospect went nowhere, we have Sakura even blushing for Naruto when she thought he matured ( Sakura literally never blushed to anyone but Sasuke before) meaning Naruto is actually on her radar as a hot guy it's just that his personality was too childish for her liking and you have some other ones like Yamato implying that she loves Naruto etc..
>>283596203>But then gets shit down again by naruto kekHe would tell her she loves Sasuke again and that he knows the feeling.
>>283595986"Orochimaru isn't real he can't hurt you">
>>283594715>>283595001Nardo has better taste than I thought
>>283596300>the faggot who plunged the word into chaos over some cunny isn't as cool as a double agent
>>283594077He took drugs and entered gay baby jail in the retrieval arc alone
>>283596258I did but I didn't read Kakashi Gaiden as it was coming out. I jumped to the manga during the years of filler at the end of part 1 like a lot of people did. The manga was somewhere around the arc in this thread when I caught up. So I did see Kakashi Gaiden in the correct order
>>283596426cope
>>283596376He died three times faggot if not then he never died he was truly immortal wich he is in boruto , he is 22 years old in boruto. >hes a pedophile faggot that grooms a 13 year old boy that he grew in a laboratory with his sperm.
I'd overlooked the CM2 pills, what do you call it if not a drug?
>>283585763Maybe get Naruto 1000 books and have them read it all in a day so he stops being so retarded.
>>283596501Yes you are coping
>>283596518>He died three timesNah.
>>283596619Nope, not drugs. All it did is help him sleep. It's like benadryl.
>>283596561It's a psycho-stimulant and Sasuke has to enter a near death state inside a sensory deprivation tank (https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Four_Black_Fogs_Formation)
>>283596639You are coping. He also took a ton more drugs while Orochimaru experimented on him during the timeskip.
>>283596396Then she would get mad and probably gaslight him into liking him or fuck who knows what sakura would do if her character development involved falling in love with naruto.And i wouldn’t like it.
>>283596670>He also took a ton more drugs while Orochimaru experimented on him during the timeskipWe've been over this. That was just Tsunade and Sakura's cope.
>>283596734He is in the manga taking drug and you just want to call it Benadryl. The only coping is from you.
>>283596639>>283596734
>>283596670>>283596734Both of those niggas probably walked in there after smoking 5 blunts to the face , and tripped out.
i just realized the entire storyline of naruto happened because raikage got horny one day and decided to abduct an exotic cunny from country that no longer exists
>>283595834He would be a complete simp.A guy who always protected her, saved her life, hung out with her, liked her in spite of her flaws, always came through for her and others, showed himself to be a stand up guy who fights to protect and has the strength to match vs a guy who always disliked her, insulted her, tried to kill her and her friends, multiple times at that.Also it's funny, what reasons does she even have to like Sasuke? She started it because all the other girls did and he never gave her any attention. Then they got on the same team and he'd always insult her. Then he defected and the only times she'd see him afterwards is when he tries to kill her. I get liking bad boys and all but this is borderline retard territory.
>>283596809Who are you talking about
>>283596751>He is in the manga taking drugA "drug" that didn't do anything but put him to sleep. It didn't enhance him in anyway. Stop coping.
>>283596809>The Uzumaki just lost their entire country cause uhhhh don’t think about it too much *raughs*
>>283596561In hindsight some very funny things could have happened with Sasuke being in that near-death state if he'd been treated with Hashirama cells before leaving with the sound 4. Like if Itachi had just disemboweled him to seem extra brutal to Kisame and Tsunade has to break out the forbidden stash of hashi cells that Root has kept due to the Yamato experiments.Sasuke wakes up with evolved curse mark and rinnegan, makes it everyone's problem.
I hate Plot cells.
>>283596888I'm gonna pretend I didn't hear that
>>283596203She would’ve definitely caught feelings if naruto gave her the good old back hand to the face.The prodigy style
This ramen is the dailiest
>>283585914why did naruto need these much clones to do this when every fucking kid on boruto mastered 2 elements when they were as old as kid naruto
>>283597057It's unbelievable that Tardruto didn't say anything to her after the Pain fight.
>>283597268It makes sense given that 100% of his heart belongs to Sasuke and he has no romantic leanings towards Hinata whatsoever.
>>283597286Naruto is straight.
>>283595292He looks like Fester Addams with a wig.
>>283596869Her mom hated his dad up to this point
>>283597399As the last 0.01% of the manga would insist.
>>283591910Boruto is in such a strange position. People are still watching or discovering Naruto, the franchise still makes money. But Boruto has an anime hiatus, no games, weak book sales. I thought there would've been a Storm 5 out by now at least.
>>283597459Naruto should have saved Tayuya
>>283597651All Boruto had going for it was sexy 12 year olds and the timeskip ruined that, of course the volume sales would collapse.
>>283597651>weak book salesBecause it popular on digital
>>283597678>All Boruto had going for it was sexy 12 year olds and the timeskip ruined thatHold the fuck up
>>283597678>All Boruto had going for it was sexy 12 year olds Pedomoto...
>>283597811
>>283597885Good god what a disgusting art style
So, how DO the Shadow Possession and Expansion jutsu work? Being able to control someone's shadow seems like it'd be fucking broken if, say, you had an army of clones with their own shadows perform said jutsu on an equal amount of people. Even just having half the clones try and bumrush a single target and the rest take control of them, since all it takes is one, but only the Nara's ever do it in the series.
>>283597885Look at this and tell me Ikemoto is not a pedophile
>>283586719>acting like 5'5 is talllol asians
>>283597962>and Expansion jutsu work?Properly just like the transformation jutsu.
>>283594172Why are kurama's claws orange?
>>283597962>Shadow PossessionYin release>>283597962>Expansion jutsuYang release
>>283598168NTA but please explain Yin & Yang release.
>>283598114Perhaps putting a lolicon in charge of the sequel to a gay love story was a misstep.
>>283595036>Karinthen he'd come out retarded
>>283595968she definitely has a greater threshold for Naruto's nonsense but she does crack partway through. She chills out again at the end though. >ynr the filler arc where Naruto is so stupid that even Hinata gets short with him
>>283598181Yin release is manifesting the will into a force that can realize the intended result.Yang release is augmenting the properties of or manipulating something that already exists.
>>283585694>>283585719It wood (heh) make more sense if wood style was water, earth, and yang release, since it's so rare only 1 person has ever had it naturally and how it's so much stronger than all of the other elements and how no other senju had it as well.
>>283585744Haku's original design was his cutest.>>283585816>Naruto can create tens, or even hundreds of thousands clonesAlso they should be doing different trainings to maximize efficency.
>>283586260>Jiraiya was teaching Naruto the basic that's why he didn't teach him anythingIs this ever stated or is it just a common cope?
>>283585914Orochimaru wanted immortally to learn all jutsu right?Why didn't he just take Naruto, he could learn a lifetime in a single year, who needs a sharingan then?
>>283586320Thank you OP.>>283587011Honestly I don't feel it particularly weird.
>>283587011>it feels like the concept of combining elements to make a new one would feel more like an advanced technique rather than some family-exclusive stuff with how simplistic it’s portrayedI think in canon you can combine them, it's just going to be weaker compared to someone who naturally has itSasuke is infinitely stronger than Haku and when he merged his wind and water to mimic Ice Release, he said it was "weaker" (probably meant the quality of it) to Haku's, but was still able to do it.
>>283590707For the most part it makes sense>>283592584Even if he knew that dead jinchuriki can be reborn inside other people and knew beforehand where kurama would respawn probably with double the chakra and presumably a worse seal he would have possessed Naruto and destroyed the village
>>283598344More people likely had wood style manifest but it's basically the worst kekkei genkai and kills most people, being derived from the divine tree because a bitch contaminated the human genome with mutations humans were never meant to have, likewise the sharingan which gets selected for instead of against because going insane for power is more preferable to exploding into a tumor of vegetation.
>>283598467>More people likely had wood style manifest but it's basically the worst kekkei genkai and kills most peopleIf it happened naturally we would of heard about random children or babies or pregnant women turning into trees randomlyThat only happened with Orocimaru because the children couldn't handle Hashirama's cells.Odds are Yamato was the only child to have a strong enough yang/life force to be able to handle it, thus requiring 3 chakra natures.
>>283591973Noemally they respawn free, even Kurama was surprised by this development, even if it would happen normally Minato wouldn't know of it.
>>283598414Orochimaru has some absurd chakra levels, he probably could've done the shadow clone thing on his own.
>>283598300cute together
>>283591973>>283598541Since most jinchuriki are usually hated and unstable since most have shit seals, Mito is the only jinchuriki besides Kushina and Naruto to have children.Maybe that's what happens naturally and no one has ever found out until now?When Mito was about to die she put Kurama in Kushina, so maybe if she didn't it would have just gone in Tsunade instead?Since Naruto was born with whiskers, and Himawari was born with whiskers, shouldn't Tsunade also have been born with whiskers?
>>283596518>grooms a 13 year old boyExplicitely he ensured he chose to not follow his decision, fearing nothing good could be born from him.
>>283598585Maybe Orochimaru was worried a shadow clone would figure out a way to become the original and kill him, I could see him not trusting a clone of himself.
>>283598599I refuse to believe there wouldn't be dozens of fetishists lusting over the female jinchuriki.
>>283598624you can disapparate clones at will.
>>283596639>It's like [a drug]
>>283598633Maybe with a weak seal the tail beast can attack the penis and cut it off when inside herOr maybe a normal baby couldn't survive the tailed beast chakra leaking inside them>Uzuamki's are not normal babies
>>283596903That drug is literally how he managed to unlock CS2, lmao. If anything the gourd that he was in and the Sound 4 were what made him fall asleep.
>>283598658>clone comes across scroll>finds a way to become the original and kill the original>does it before Orochimaru disperses itdone
>>283597962Shadow possession in itself is already completely broken, in case Shikamarus fights didn't make that obvious.
>>283598541How often does a Jinchuuriki have kids to even study the phenomenon? I know in the Boruto anime Yagura had a grandson which implied he had a son or daughter, but the Boruto anime and manga didn't have complete synergy and the anime went on hiatus before Kurama came back to life..
>>283598599>Since Naruto was born with whiskers, and Himawari was born with whiskers, shouldn't Tsunade also have been born with whiskers?Kishi didn't think that through and it was obvious Tsunade's grandmother wasn't originally related to Naruto nor contained the fox. Going by how Boruto and Himawari have two whisker marks, Tsunade should have the same on each cheek while one of her parents would have three like Naruto.
>>283598685>having such a scroll in the first place>having them active for more than a few minutes
>>283598599Yeah, I was thinking the same thing.Just a small correction, according to anime filler Yagura had a child.
>>283598732Kushina doesn't have them.
>>283598740Her parent wasn't a Jinchuuriki. She wouldn't have them.
>>283598713Yeah, that's what I was saying, even if it would happen normally Minato wouldn't have any way to know it, as it requires extremely specific situations and the jinchuriki system is pretty recent.
>>283598740>Kushina doesn't have them.Kushina's parent's weren't jinchurikis
>>283598733Or, maybe, Orochimaru already knows how to, and the clone would spawn with the knowledge, and that's why he never uses shadow clones, only mud clones
The Gold and Silver Brothers also gained whiskers on their faces after surviving on Kurama's flesh when eaten by him.
>>283598764a lot of convoluted assumptions, the likelihood such a jutsu even exists is slim.
>>283598735Well Yagura is a guy, maybe because Naruto spent 9 months with Kurama in Kushina, Naruto's DNA itself has Kurama in it, so even though his children have it with him being a man, his DNA has a bit of Kurama because of his motherMaybe it's not DNA, maybe Naruto's chakra is just so connected with the 9 tails from conception, and that's also why he has the KCM while other jinchuriki don't?
>>283598773>the likelihood such a jutsu even exists is slim.The likelihood of the Sharingan being able to rewrite reality and prevent your death also sounds like it would be unlikely
>>283598735The whole concept with Kurama and Bijuu coming back in a former Jinchuuriki's child likely wasn't created when those episodes aired. Remember, this franchise will contradict itself or change information purely for the plot.
>>283586260>Jiraiya what did you teach him! No really what!?- Shadow shuriken jutsu. Shown when he hid a second rasenshuriken in the shadow of the first against Tendo Pain.- Giant rasengan- Better battle tactics. Shown when he was able to outwit Kakuzu (a guy survived trying to assassinate Hashirama) twice.- Better taijutsu. Shown when he was able to fight the Deva Pain for a bit in base form- Can make shadow clones much faster. Shown he made a clone before a bloodlusted Chiyo (who's low kage level btw) could attack Kaskaki- Control over Kurama's chakra up to 3-tails
>>283598674cope
>>283598795>Maybe it's not DNA, maybe Naruto's chakra is just so connected with the 9 tails from conception, and that's also why he has the KCM while other jinchuriki don't?At the very least we know there are degrees of compatibility with Kurama's chakra, with Hima having the highest compatibility (maybe that's why to people like Sakura it results toxic?).>>283598844Yeah, I know.>>283598956>Shadow shuriken jutsu. Shown when he hid a second rasenshuriken in the shadow of the first against Tendo Pain.no proof he learned it from him, we already saw Sasuke using it and it's never shown as a Jiraiya's jutsu (neither him nor others among his other apprentices used it).>Better battle tactics. Shown when he was able to outwit Kakuzu (a guy survived trying to assassinate Hashirama) twice.That's just Naruto being clever, that was how he freed Kakashi from Zabuza, or defeated Neji >Better taijutsu. Shown when he was able to fight the Deva Pain for a bit in base formHe was manhandled by Kabuto and Sasuke, he became strong only after the timeskip>Can make shadow clones much faster. Shown he made a clone before a bloodlusted Chiyo (who's low kage level btw) could attack KaskakiHe's always made shadow clones extremely fast, also Chiyo isn't that fast, even more wothout puppets.>Control over Kurama's chakra up to 3-tailsBefore his training he never had troubles with the fox's power.
>>283598821difference is one was actually written into the story and the other was invented during the course of this discussion.
>>283598599>>283598732You only get the whiskers if your parent hosted Kurama. One of Tsunade's parents would've had them, but not her since they didn’t become jinchuriki.
>>283599118Now, we don't know that. Boruto or Himawari haven't had kids yet to prove it.
>>283599067>maybe that's why to people like Sakura it results toxic?the 4 tail state Naruto was burning his skin off, and turned Orochimaru's body into ash before he slithered away from that body, odds are it just burned Sakura just like them
>>283599118>You only get the whiskers if your parent hosted Kurama. One of Tsunade's parents would've had them, but not her since they didn’t become jinchuriki.>>283599140>Now, we don't know that. Boruto or Himawari haven't had kids yet to prove it.If the whiskers came from parents then both of Naruto's kids would have 3 whiskers on each cheek, but they only have 2.Naruto has 3 on each side because of being in Kushina's womb, and his kids have 2 because Naruto has some of Kurama in him.The most logical outcome is that Boruto's kids will have 1 while Himawari's kids will have 3.
>>283599067>nuh-uh he d-didn't learn it from him!Not an argument you coping faggot. We know Jiraiya trained Naruto for over 2 years, we know Naruto never had these skills until after his training with Jiraiya. You lost.
>>283599204>we know Naruto never had these skills until after his training with Jiraiya.We don't know that.Also by this token we know he learned those things from the frog hermit and kakashi, as he didn't have those skills before training with them (and for the better taijutsu we actually know that, as he was effortlessly defeated by Sasuke and Kabuto).Finally the strategic ability was one of his skills from the start.
>>283599167Sakura said it was distinctly poisonous.
>>283598956>>283599204Jiraiya taught 3 child orphans in 3 years how do to more shit than what he taught Naruto, explain that.Jiraya taught elemental jutsu to a child but not teenage Naruto?
>>283599289>Sakura said it was distinctly poisonous.IDK man, Zabua said the chakra in the air was foul when Naruto was in 0 tail/enrage mode, maybe the chakra gets more "evil" and the poison just part of the chakra?Also Tsunade says the rashenrukin is like a poison because of it's cellular damage, maybe Sakura is saying something similar?
>>283599385>rashenrukinyou made me realize I lack good Naruto reaction images
>>283599385I don't think it's literal poison in the same way drinking mercury would be. I think the implication is that it poisons your chakra. It's magic poison.
>>283598956Why do you spam this in every thread?
>>283585831>>283585854P sure it's where Sarada trains w Sasuke to learn chidori. At least looks similar, and can't imagine another similar looking falls in Konoha
>>283588307>HakiWhat is that?
>Chidori/Lightning Rasengan - It pierces through and zaps the opponents >Rasenshuriken/Wind Rasengan - Destroys the opponent on a cellular level What would the fire, water and earth variants of the rasengan be like?
>>283600659It's some garbage mechanic that oda retconned into OP to make everything more samey.
>>283600715>firehot rasengan, your insides burnInternal damage>watersplash rasengan, probably feels like being hit by a wave over and over againDisorienting damage >earthearth rasengan, probably feels like being hit by a boulder over and over againBlunt damageI doubt Kishi even thought of it, I member in Boruto the movie the rasengan Boruto uses was naturally wind before it was changed to lightning instead
>>283599204Oh shut up you're just wrong.Jiraiya failed Naruto during the 3 year skip.>Naruto taught himself shadow clones>Jiraiya showed Naruto the Rasengan but Naruto taught himself it for the most part>Bigger Rasengan was just a natural development of the technique Naruto taught himself>faster shadow clones was a natural development of a technique Naruto taught himself that was created by the 2nd Hokage>Kakashi, Yamato and Asuma taught Naruto Chakra nature >B taught Naruto how to handle the fox>Ghost Minato fixed the seal Jiraiya fucked up>The Toads taught Naruto about Sage mode and Nature ChakraIt takes Naruto 5 days to learn Rasenshuriken. 5 DAYS!The worst part is we never get a flashback of Naruto training with Jiraiya. Kishimoto just pretends it didn't happens.Also the Shadow Shuriken was used by Naruto in the Land of Waves arc against Zabuza you idiot.
>>283600715For some reason lightning rasengan does something completely different.
Why doesnt any other village have techniques remotely on the level of Rasengan (nothing to say of Rasenshuriken), Chidori or all the shit the Sharingan does?
>>283600862They do, Deidara and Kakuzu's kinjutsu are far stronger, same for lightning armor, or boil release, beside the bs of the sharingan these jutsu are all more powerful than those 2.
>>283600922I always thought those abilities were just unique to those guys.
>>283600862What is >particle style>lava style >lightning armor kumo kages use>Mai acid>Lady Chiyo puppetsAll of those dunk on early part 2 Naruto and any non MS user
>>283600944Deidara and Kakuzu stole their jutsus, and multiple people use lightning armor (both raikage), it's just that Kishimoto doesn't want to show multiple people using the same jutsu.
>>283600944Stuff like particle style, earth grudge fear, detonating clay, lightning cloak and such are all learnable except for explicitly bloodline abilities like the two Mei has or Gaara's special situation.
>>283600858Jiraya should have just sent Naruto to train with the toads for 3 years instead, they probably would have taught him Wind, Fire, and Earth and by the end learn Sage mode.
>>283600949>lava style >Mai acidAren't those just her unique kekkei genkai?>Lady Chiyo puppetsI'd think of puppeteering, more as a style like the bug people or hyuga from Konoha. It's not just one technique that you learn and then can oneshot any opponent, it's a fighting style you have to practice and constantly improve.>>283600970>>283600976I guess there's also noone other than Naruto that bothers learning Rasengan, so fair enough I guess.
>>283600978I wonder how Hinata would react to a hermit Naruto who eats bugs casually because he lost his sanity on toad mountain.
Fugusaku did naruto better in less than a day as to months , I could imagine how much of a breeze it must have been to train minato.I will admit naruto was under tension with the pain assault during his time in toadland
>>283601005>Aren't those just her unique kekkei genkai?Stone village also has Lava style, like the Boruto earth Stone kage.Also Kumo had the Rubber guy which is a offshoot of lava style
>>283601052>Rubber guy which is a offshoot of lava styleBoruto sure is something special...
>>283601048Kind of weird that Fugusaku didn't say anything to Naruto about Minato, although maybe he thinks all humans look the same
>>283601062>BorutoThat was in Naruto when he fights edo kumo kage and the rubber guy saves the clone.
>>283600970I remember feeling scandalized when The Last showed off a whole squadron of inner gate users so maybe Kishimoto had the right idea to not spread cool powers around much.
>>2836011058 gates not being a kekkei genkai was stupidThere is no reason Naruto can't always have 7 gates open when fighting anyone
>>283601160Given that he kept Guy from dying, and Guy doesn't have Naruto's busted healing, Naruto could probably easily survive opening the 8th Gate.Madara, too, which would be somewhat amusing.
>>283601214Naruto almost died in his 20s just from being a jinchuriki he should leave his chakra system alone instead of tempting systemic breakdown.
>>283601064Because minato told jairaya to keep him quiet, by using gerotora
>>283601214>Given that he kept Guy from dyingThe Yang seal did that, current Naruto can't do that.>MadaraI just realized how funny it would be if Madara asked Sasuke and Naruto>Would you like my limbo clones to use 8 gates or not?
>>283601214Would edo tensei dai be able to do it?
>>283587770someone has a lip fetish
>>283601105Maybe the issue is more with how generic and learnable the Rasengan feels, despite being supposed to be Narutos unique technique.
>>283601361nta but I think the gates require internal organs and the body for the edo probably can't, especially when the 8th gate needs a heart to pump
>>283599027kek you are obviously wrong and those anons BTFO'd you. You have no reply other than literal coping when presented with proof in the manga
>>283601388Nta but the gates are tenketsu placed in correspondance to organs, as edo bodies have a chakra networks I think they should still have the gates.
>>283601656>as edo bodies have a chakra networks I think they should still have the gates.The edo body isn't their body, even if they could use 8 gates, I doubt the body inside the edo could handle it.That's why when Madara was revived, we're told that his true body strength is coming back, since he was limited by the body his edo was using
>>283596830What the fuck do you mean he would be a simp? How is he not one already considering that he was doing all of that already and didn't get the girl?
>>283601698>I doubt the body inside the edo could handle it.I really doubt that's a worry, the sacrifice for the summoning isn't vulnerable, even if it couldn't handle it it can't be notably damaged.
>>283595918>After the pain fight.Naruto should’ve automatically become hokage by popular demand and proven tried and true he is the strongest ninja in the village.Tsunade should’ve remained dead.sakura by default retires as ninja and becomes the villages main healer of medical core by default / puts her character away for battle.>5 kage summit would lead up to a war but instead of a war against madara its a war against the leaf and sand village as naruto being the hokage refuses to capture and kill sasuke due to plot causing major tensions.Sasuke appears now its the real naruto vs sasuke match no 6 paths no rinnegan no broken powers no ems.>the hokage hero >vs >sasuke / madara 2.0 Sasuke escapes joins with obito.War arc Battle goes on as many suffer casualties, reanimations are unleashed by obito and kabuto the alliance gets formed in order of a peace treaty to deal with a bigger threat naruto talk no jutsu wins peace with 5 great nations. >real war begins with madara/ aka obito madara should not be reanimated. The previous kage get reanimated as a last resort meaning every village has to personally deal with they’re previous leaders.
>>283602521Why does Tsunade need to die?
>>283599337Jirayia focused on basics because if someone can make a 100 clones of himself improving 1% in basics is more significant than learning a new nature release, especially since Naruto has already more finishing power than any of these.
>>283602521>Naruto should’ve automatically become hokage by popular demand and proven tried and true he is the strongest ninja in the village.He should get the offer but he should refuse it for now because if he becomes hokage now he won't have time to train and become stronger.
>>283595918All these are good. I approve.
>>283602941Why decline when becoming hokage gives unrestricted access to every resource from forbidden jutsu to top secret intel to assigning shinobi to assist him? He could make the former hokage guard teach him FTG and then between teleporting and clones he'd make a lot of improvement.
>>283595918Naruto releases KuramaNaruto learns more ninjutsuNO WAR ARC
>>283603219Too busy with stupid paperwork for that. Also no command experience.
>>283601388Doesn't the gentle fist work on Edo reanimations? If it does, then the reanimations should be able to use the gates.
>>283603219Also him being in konoha for the rest of his life would make for a boring story.
>>283603246That wasn't a problem for Gaara.
>>283603325I'd say it was, he didn't really have more jutsu after being a hokage for a few years. Except maybe the sand clones.
>>283603325Sorry, kazekage
>>2836032461 shadow clone out of 1,000 for the paperwork suffices, Boruto's absurd melodrama need not apply.
>>283603414True it could happen and it is possible but 1: Naruto has no command experienced and he knows it so I would like to see him in command role before he becomes a hokage2: I think Naruto could learn more through adventures than in konoha from scrolls and I think there is still some fun to be had by having Naruto learn ninjutsu "in the field"So I agree that if you want to end the story there than yeah, he could become hokage after the Nagato fight but otherwise it would be more funpilled for him to travel the world like Jirayia and hunt for good jutsu. Or maybe find some new masters.
>>283597885The horror...The horror...
I would lose the whiskers and change Naruto's wardrobe. I kinda hate the shippuden design.
I really like it when tiny bits of Kishimoto's hate for women slips through the editors and into the manga.
>>283604014Imagine if he actually dressed cool and not like a dweeb.
>>283604391>villain says something evil>HURR DURR IT'S THE AUTHORS WORLDVIEW
>>283604391It's similar to Zabuza's last moments
>>283591983>>283591209It's okay Hiruzen was holding back and just decided not to create 5 clones who would each use gigantic blasts of each Justus type stronger than several thousand ninja each.Why?Because he loved orochimaru.
>>283604671Well, Shikamaru DOES say the same kind of stuff.
>>283604756I remember that. When he yelled "FUCK HOES" before kissing his boy Haku then dying.
>>283600970how do the mouth hands factor in
>>283601244wild the lengths everyone around Naruto went to hide his heritage from himmakes you wonder why Naruto didn't defect like Sasuke did>fuck these arseholes, conspiring against me my entire life
>>283603325Gaara isn't a character, he's a plot device
>>283598956>Control over Kurama's chakra up to 3-tailsWhere was this control you speak of when he used those forms?
>>283603219Because he's simply too inexpert to lead the leaf, even as an adult he will struggle.>>283604391Anon it's exccedingly blatant that's just Sasori coping, and try to deny he too has emotions (ignore how ninja shouldn't have emotions, that was too dark, now ninja are just the coolest thing ever)>>283605358or the strings body? We have no idea.
>>283605639>Anon it's exccedingly blatant that's just Sasori coping, and try to deny he too has emotions (ignore how ninja shouldn't have emotions, that was too dark, now ninja are just the coolest thing ever)You're blatantly ignoring what kind of opinions Kishimoto has. If you knew what his views on women are you wouldn't go "lol it's just Sasori coping" like a retard. What about Madara telling Tsunade she's a weak woman? Was he also coping while kicking her ass?
>>283606018No, Kishi is absolutely biased against women, but Sasori there was referring to showing emotions, and follow it up saying being a soulless doll is the way to go, he wasn't speaking for Kishimoto there.
>>283605467>NARUTOOOOOOOOO PLEASE KISS MEEEEEEEEEEEEERemember when Gaara was more interested in Sasuke?
>>283604582Yeah. But Kishi is allergic to having Naruto change clothes.
we love Shikamaru here
>>283607276Whose we?
>>283601064Minato knowing Sage Mode was yet another retcon.
>>283608833I really hate how similar they made Minato to Naruto. >uses the rasengan >uses shadow clones>uses sage mode>even has the fucking kyuubi mode
>>283585438>I'm unstoppablegod damnnit he is such a shithead, he hasn't won shit since the timeskip>>283585719how is so much water flowing out of that tiny little pool>>283585763the absolute lowest form of lampshading>>283585914why does orochimaru need sasuke again?
>>283604391
>>283609372>why does orochimaru need sasuke again?Itachi
>>283594785Why Kishi put hundred of stuff on sharingan and not Byakugan?
>>283609962Because sharingan was the one his favorite characters that inexplicably had to become the strongest in the world had.
>>283609962>>283610114Kishimoto was probably seething hard about those times when the Byakugan was more popular than the Sharingan and when Neji was more popular than Shikamaru.
>>283610162What would be a reasonable power up for byakugan that could be introduced late in the series and isn't a copy of the sharingan progression. Creative challenge.
>>283610241A reasonable power up in the war arc if we go by Kishi standards is Tenten oneshotting Kakuzu, so probably anything goes.
>>283610322War arc isn't in my headcannon
>>283609962Because a main character had it.
>>283610162When was the byakugan ever more popular?
>>283610428It was during or at the end of SRA when they had a popularity poll for the jutsus.
>>283610462I think that was before that.Then after the SRA we Immediately had another poll where the sharingan came out on top.
>>283594994They did take Chojis pills since he relied on Akimichi clan cheat pills only
You are my friend!AAAAHHHHHHHHHH
