>>288525484I assume choza was dan student.
B&W
>>288525527what an egghead
>>288525415could have been a good chance to show a puppet user in action that isn't one of the named characters
>>288525404Wow the land of frost? An entire land of shinobi with Haku's kekki genkai
This is a boring chapter.
>>288525427Genma talking some straight bullshit. At least explain the reasoning instead of some vague 'they set the standards'
>>288525404Is that daimyo a ninja? Why is he wearing a forehead protector?
>>288525674Why not let B use black lightning?
>>288525686/fa/
>>288525427>>288525438I'm really glad they spent panels on these literal who characters talking about awards
>>288525471This jutsu is cool as fuck
>>288525471>black guy using black lightningbravo kishi
>>288525484I like the detail that Hizashi is wearing Hiashi's clothes, because his corpse was supposed to be his brother's when he died.
>>288525729This chapter has like nothing going on in 4 different places at once.
>>288525493>the whole main/branch conflict the Hyugas had was solved offscreen with no explanation Wow, that's pretty lame.
Done!
>>288525502Sasorikeks!?!?!? Our response????
>>288525481I bet Kakuzu is nerfed as fuck just like Sasori seeing as he doesn't have his hearts and was probably restored to his old 'normal' body without all those threads
>>288525540Why is he talking to them so respectfully? Weren't they supposed to be criminals?
>>288525820being a criminal is based though
>One volume a week keeps Sakon too tired to sneak.Thank you Kishimoto, the author of Naruto, for making these threads possible.
>>288525481Tenten once again giving off heavy anal slut vibes simply by existing.
>>288525427>We owe these guys alliegance.>Why?>BECAUSEFeels very Asian-coded.
>>288525922Asian history is full of people taking over the government when they had the military power to do so though.
>>288525493>...But we're still keeping the swastika seals that can burn your brain into a mushy paste or whatever. Also they do all our chores and stuff but other than that WE ARE EQUAL!
>>288525411Why even show yourself and jump ahead, can't he just spawn where he wants? So spawn inside the castle maybe?>>288525446Maybe this would have been useful 3 pages ago? No?
>>288525502>>288525510Good call KankuroHanzo alone could solo all of them
>>288525690you wouldnt want him to become too gangsta.
>>288525725sasoribros...
>>288525540Look at this chad facing a sea of Zetsu's and the Gold/Silver brothers alone and being so chill about itBEASTAlso imagine how hype it would have been if Darui was introduced earlier in the series than the Summit as a minor antagonist and this time we'd get to root for him as one of the good guys / sort of anti-hero.. Actually that goes for most of the other village's shinobi. Kishi should have introduced them all waaaay sooner in different ways before the war arcBut regardless Darui is cool as fuck here, never really appreciated him before
>>288525796thanks op.
>>288526009The dumbest part is that I can't imagine anyone reading this cares about the Damiyo being found by Zetsu and captured or not.
>>288526142Welcome
>>288526166I NEED to see her getting swarmed by ravenous Zetsu.
>>288525820>Why is he talking to them so respectfully? Weren't they supposed to be criminals?They're like Orochimaru, Sasori, or Kisame. They still get a lot of respect despite their crimes.
My gf watched the first couple episodes of Naruto and said if I don't like Sakura, she might not be my type.
>>288526266What did she think of Sakura mocking orphans in an attempt to get close to her crush?
>>288526266Dodged the bullet there, time to find new gf.Good luck anon.
>>288526255No one in Konoha respects Orochimaru
Its about time someone made some giantess fanart of Sakura destroying orphanages
>>288525484wait, so Hiashi was actually teling the truth with the whole "no, he sacrificed himself willingly"-bullcrap?
>>288526135>Also imagine how hype it would have been if Darui was introduced earlier in the series than the Summit as a minor antagonist and this time we'd get to root for him as one of the good guys / sort of anti-hero.. Actually that goes for most of the other village's shinobi. Kishi should have introduced them all waaaay sooner in different ways before the war arcI've seen it suggested that instead of introducing 12 konoha ninjas that barely do anything, the chunin exam should have introduced a much more varied group of characters from all kinds of different villages
I must've been in full sunk cost fallacy mode to be reading this shit weekly. The worst part was that no one could've predicted that this war would drag on for as long as it did.
>>288525438>houses in an obvious pattern>set intervals, i.e. predictable schedule>sequential and non-randomized ordergreat planning
>>288525796thanks, OP!
>>288525741>jutsu is a literal black pantherthere are people who try and argue Cloud ninja aren't black
>>288525955Maybe I should've specified "East Asian" because Japanese to this day have imperial family to parade around and while Chinese history is tumultous, early on they developed the Mandate of Heaven concept, because they felt uncomfortable with the thought of someone removing emperor on a whim.
>>288526730unless they're commies too they will always be latinx
>>288526730Didn't Kishi literally say he made Kumo like that because of all the black Naruto fans?
>>288525415What did they expect to accomplish here?>>288525438If Genma and Raido are the daimyo's only protection rn, then a sound 4 threat could swoop in and kill them all.
>>288526694It's kind of funny that people bitch and moan so much about the side characters not getting focus, but Naruto&Sasuke are totally removed from current happenings for like an entire volume now and things just turn into a big meme
>>288525481TENTEN HIT SOMETHING!
>>288526762for much of history the imperial family was merely a religious and political symbol that they kept around for stability; east asian countries were often very chaotic whenever they didn't have a strong central government in control
>>288526847the war arc is still a big meme even when they do show up. it has a lot of problems other than "no sauce and naruto".
>>288526812No
>>288525484Hizashi sounds even more cucked here than when he killed himself.>>288525493>Offscreened resolutionThx kishialso, does this imply that main and side branch never fought side by side? And for back up, tag teams and such? This sounds stupid.
>>288526915Just forget all that war stuff and remember peak instead
>>288526665Wasn't that the original plan Kishimoto had for the 2 other rookie teams?
>>288526956yeah, it was leaps and bounds better but i still dislike the resolution.
>>288525502...That other guy is there too i guess.
>>288526166My cute, completely useless wife...
>>288525471why doesn't the unkillable edo tensei subject go first and tank all the hits in place of his mortal army?>WHEN THE ZETSU WITH THE ZOMBIE GETS KILLED, THE ZETSU WHO IS FOLLOWING PROTECTS THE ZOMBIE AND DIES!
>>288525527BALD>>288525540>Great senpaiWeeb speak is so off-putting in a situation like this.
>>288526665>I've seen it suggested that instead of introducing 12 konoha ninjas that barely do anything, the chunin exam should have introduced a much more varied group of characters from all kinds of different villagesIt would have made a lot more sense for the setting too. The Chunin Exam was supposed to expand the world by introducing the main cast to the world's villages. Except past the Forest of Death, we got 12 Konoha shinobi, 3 sand, and 3 sound (all die and sound doesn't really matter past part 1). Plus Kabuto's squad of jobbers + him.The only staying power that was introduced by the Chunin Exams were the Sand. It would have made much more sense to introduce them given the Jinchuriki are spread out around the world between the 5 major powers, and seeing these former genin from the Chunin exam battle it out with the Akatsuki would have made a lot more narrative sense.ESPECIALLY since the main theme of Naruto is ending the cycle of hatred between nations/peoples. Having Team 7 actually interact with people from other sides of the world and form friendships/rivalries, then maybe have to be confronted by them later on as rogue Leaf shinobi like Sasuke terrorize their villages would display how friends become either willing or unwilling enemies, and the true horror of war is killing people that have more in common with you than not.Which is why Naruto really sucks, it's a lot of wasted potential.
>>288526332Idk, I don't know how far she watched.
>>288525540>>288525549>>288525774>>288525796Arigatou, OP!
>>288526762THe chinese Mandate of Heaven, unlike the european divine right of kings, can be transferred though.And for most of japanese history the defacto rulers were Shoguns, which is a militar title.
>>288526956this village looks bad-arse, I can't wait to see what the story does with it
>>288527068but, anon, THIS IS WAR >>288525540
Hiashi won.
>>288527129the shogunate only lasted for about 500 years. the emperor dates back over a thousand.
>>288526561Thread shitposts might have affected your perception of the events.
>>288526847Focusing on side characters when they had a chance to matter would've been good. Now Naruto is already so powerful nobody besides Kage is relevant and the side characters are just fighting mindless zombies anyways.
>>288526730And B quoted Mohamad Ali, people who keep saying that don't actually believe that, they just want to annoy black weebs.
>>288527159The first Shogunate started 1185, the last one ended in 1868. The Kojiki, which is one of the first written works of Japan is from 712.
>>288527150>fighting 100k clones and a few dozen zombies is ALL OUT WAR!!!>it lasts 2 days>like 4 people dieGod, I fucking hate this entire "war" so much.
>>288527068>Jinchuriki are spread out around the world between the 5 major powers, and seeing these former genin from the Chunin exam battle it out with the Akatsuki would have made a lot more narrative sense.>ESPECIALLY since the main theme of Naruto is ending the cycle of hatred between nations/peoples. Having Team 7 actually interact with people from other sides of the world and form friendships/rivalries, then maybe have to be confronted by them later on as rogue Leaf shinobi like Sasuke terrorize their villages would display how friends become either willing or unwilling enemies, and the true horror of war is killing people that have more in common withi feel like part 2 would become a chain of rescue arcs with all the jinchuriki if naruto meets all of them. he only throws a fit over gaara because "character we know!" he doesn't care about any of the jinchuriki he never met dying. the jinchuriki plotline is one of the biggest problems. sure it makes sense someone would want to gather up a bunch of people with nukes inside them for power, but it just fucks with the worldbuilding in the end. their powerscaling doesn't make much sense.i think you have a cool idea. if it was what happened, i would like for all of then to stay dead after losing the bijuu. or i would just not make the akatsuki the main plot. maybe have a couple of them die or something then defeat the akatsuki and move on. the endgoal is retarded anyway.and i like your idea for a war more than what we got but kishi probably wouldn't have been able to pull it off. he hates conflicts with actual dilemmas and actively avoids them.i like your general idea of introducing more characters from other villages too.
>>288527068>Kumo InoShikaCho
>>288526166Why did you post this? You're the annoying cropping guy?
>>288527464If Ino was like this then Ino wouldn't be so pale
>>288527534*inojinFUCK
>>288526450People still reckon him as one of the Sannin.
>>288527352>i feel like part 2 would become a chain of rescue arcs with all the jinchurikiThere is a lot that could be done. A jinchuriki could escape Akatsuki, but then fall into the hands of another village. There could be plotting between the villages in general, where they actually try to get the other jinchuriki killed by Akatsuki to strengthen their own position. There could be other jinchuriki saving Naruto when he is attacked. The possibilities are endless.Even with minimal changes, imagine if Yugito had been the instructor of one of the teams at the chunin exam and Naruto became close with them, then Yugito would be captured while protecting her team and they'd be desperate to save her, while realizing they can't stand up to Akatsuki.
>>288526135But then you'd have to retcon how the other villages worked.
>>288527068adding:the jinchuriki weren't thought out by the chuunin exams but aside from that, i feel if they did introduce more of them there it would make naruto's conflict with gaara less impressive.naruto would see a lot of people who are "just like him fr".the general idea of just introducing more people from other villages is good though.>>288527601maybe. i feel the akatsuki become more of a side piece here and the main conflict becomes other villages fucking with each other.it could be a neat setup for a war.>yugitocould be interesting. i'm kinda conflicted.it would be better implementation of the jinchuriki but it would lead to a lot of rescue arcs overall. i'm talking about the jinchuriki as a whole in this scenario.part 2 already had a lot of searching for people/things/waiting around, etc. and it was pretty boring.
>>288525481tenten will truly be an important asset going forward
>>288527534big if true
>>288525869BASED!
>>288527699>maybe. i feel the akatsuki become more of a side piece here and the main conflict becomes other villages fucking with each otherI'd imagine it more as Naruto and his friends seeing Akatsuki as the main threat, while the higher ups in the villages are caught up in their realpolitik, which allows Akatsuki to be successful (as opposed to them just walking into villages, capturing their strongest ninja and walking back out).>it would lead to a lot of rescue arcs overallIt wouldn't even have to lead to a rescue arc to be a big improvment, just from the emotion it introduces.That being said, the arc already is a worse version of a rescue arc, where they instead run at the Akatsuki to get revenge for a bald monk, while the jinchuriki plot is completely disconnected.
>>288527733Tenten has only one ASSet that she can provide.
Man i just love neji in the rock lee show he is so petite and calm with his lust for naruto
>>288526665nobody in team kurenai farms aura like Sauce and Shikaand your idea is dumb as hell. we are following leaf ninja, not stone jobbers.
>>288527464>black hair>in kumo
cloud niggas should've been arabs
>>288527801>while the higher ups in the villages are caught up in their realpolitik,could work i guess. you already have something similar in the kazekage arc i guess with an elder wanting to just leave gaara for dead. but nothing comes of it.all the villages could have their own opinions on their jinchuriki and how to approach this matter.>the arc already is a worse version of a rescue arc, where they instead run at the Akatsuki to get revenge for a bald monk, while the jinchuriki plot is completely disconnected.when asuma's team went to fight hidan/kakuzu?true then. i guess kishi probably wanted some reason to write an arc for shikamaru and wanted to use the akatsuki but couldn't think of a reason why shikamaru would come in contact with them (without them attacking naruto or something).and his arc is kinda lame in the end.the entire setup is pretty stupid now that you mention it. getting revenge for a bald monk... that's also why asuma dies...
>>288527993>cloud niggas should've been arabsbut we already had them
>>288527880
>>288526166Forgot to remove your trip there, champ.
so i assumed gaara never killed his siblings despite hating them and constantly threatening them because he would rather have that than be alone.but it could also be related to how he feared his father. he wouldn't want his father sending assassins after him again for killing his other kids.
>>288525471Darui has a great moveset.
>>288525411ZETSUBROS OUR FIRST FIGHT
>>288525820Kumo respects gangstas
>>288525481Holy fuck tenten did something. Best girl
>>288525820Surely Yugito will be respected when she comes back as well...
>>288527068That was back before tailed beasts were even a concept, the Kyubi and Shukaku were unrelated and Shukaku was the evil spirit of a monk or something
>>288527946
>>288527905I like how they officially made a joke to loli stuff
>>288528435Isn't that the girl that got oneshot in Boruto?
>>288527464>>288528435Ugly
>>288528418I don't necessarily mean that the ones in the Chunin exam and/or their respective Jonin team leaders should have been Jinchuriki, but all could have had attachments to them. Bee had students and was a well-respected shinobi, and besides the Jinchuriki vaired in age and rank, with Naruto being a genin and the Mizukage being the leader of his village.Jinchuriki storyline, or lack thereof, aside, so much more could have been done with the world building. We didn't even meet the other 3 Kage until the 11th hour of the manga and they were near/at war. Then there's a wave of new characters like Darui getting his own fight and "moments" and we're sitting here like "Who the fuck is this guy? Why should we care? Why are we using time on him fighting revived shinobi we've never heard of?"It's a pathetic attempt at building out the rest of the world. It probably didn't help that Jiraiya and Naruto apparently traveled and trained for 2 years and all of it was in a timeskip. At least some of it should have actually been written and drawn out.
>>288528480Tobirama...
>>288528452Irukabros...is our boy a groomer?
>>288525493>No such fate exists!>He doesn't know
>>288528575Nobody besides Neji's own cousin fetiche forced him to be killed (so he could watch Naruto plapping Hinata from the pure lands' tv).
>>288527464>>288528435Holy would
>>288528480This one?
>>288526561Why would he lie about that?
>>288528452What episode
>>288525502>Well done, Kankuro...>You've outdone puppetless Sasori.I know what Kishi was trying to shoe horn here but that's bullshit
>>288528599Not as bad, probably because it looks nothing like Hinata outside the outfit.
>>288528599If hinata was black i would like her better
>>288528599Also would
>>288526450They never stopped calling the group the three sannin after Oro decided to go Mengele
>>288528452Is that Konohamaru? Zamn
Kuchiyose no Jutsu!
>>288525510Retreat? Vs at least 3/4 elite jonin threats? While carrying Deidara? Okay...
>>288525438Really want a sucking titjob from Mei.
>>288525438Very exploitable middle panel.
This war is boring as fuck all
>>288525510How did they even find enough pieces of deidara to revive?
>>288528803They don't even have numerical advantage against immortal enemies and they are 3 nameless scrubs and Kankurou who is encumbered by keeping Deidara tied down. Retreat is the only non-suicidal option.
>>288528919Kabuto must have gotten a hold of DNA samples of all of Akatsuki taken before their deaths.
>>288525540>drabSo does he say 怠い darui in japanese, like his name? Like a pun
>>288528972Yes, though it's hardly much of a pun when his name is just an adjective and he keeps using it.
>>288528765!
>>288528972His name is in katakana specifically so you wouldn't get confused by stuff like this.
>>288528869U rike the current rendition of /nart/?
>>288525493>"it's new though">"it's only been like 3 years max">"but i swear it's better now">"we don't even make neji and the rest eat with the dogs anymore">>288525484>that cloud ninjabehind them"hey wait a second, did you fake his dea-"
>>288529095...
>>288529095uwu Nardo-kun I just murdered Jiraiya, show me the 9 tails beast~
>>288525484choza how did you make that sound gay?
>>288528452JK are not loli.
>>288528599Ebonata...
How do you win at life like Choji?
>>288525404Wouldn't Mei's vast area acid/magma techniques be the worst suited for an escort mission?
>>288525404IT'S WAAAAAAAAARWAR IT'S WAR PEOPLE DIE DURING WAR
>>288529299If I cum inside her will she get pregnant?
>>288525427This is so childish and stupid. Kishimoto's idea of showing power and government is goofballs debating how to name an award.
>>288528480gay
>>288528452That show was underrated as hell. It started out pretty meh but improved really fast. It was funny as fuck.
I've noticed a dramatic drop in ... These last couple arcs. Or did I forget them already?
>>288528275I don't think he actually hated them, I think it's more like they couldn't approach each other while Rasa was alive and basically were strangers during Chuunin exams. After Konoha Crush, Gaara chilled a lot so they could interact aside going on missions together.
>>288528566You would dare risk the wrath of the fujo? Iruka has eyes only for his one true love; Kakashi.You'd do well to remember this, friend.
>>288525869The only good thing in this daily anymore tbqhwyd
>>288529432It would be extremely pleasurable.
>>288529706You're supposed to look forward the next thing. Not ponder the current chapters. Think of how awesome Sasuke's return will be. Think of all the POTENTIAL this manga still has
>>288529808I'm referring to Kishi's cliche dialogue
>>288528128A fine rear indeed...
Japs are loving Boruto's volume 8 apparently. :D
Also they left out of the physical release the Q&A where Ikemoto said "Age is just a number" lmaao I fucking knew it was going to happen.
>>288529477It was really good and it had a lot of fucked up moments like tenten becoming a lesbian and the curry face episode hinting at scat fetishes Yes that actually happened.
>>288529953>it's realthey left it out of the official site, the question in picrel should be in between these two>https://naruto-official.com/en/news/01_2613
>>288530100So this is why StP wants to storytime Boruto
Are any of the Ninja Storm games worth picking up on steam? Never played their games but they look fun. Do any of them have an active community still?Who was your main?
>>288529727bonds were "nothing but hatred and the intent to kill".at the very least he saw them as nothing.
>>288525427The daimyo still are the least interesting part of the whole manga.
>>288529294
>>288530100This needs to be leaked to the press and he needs his hard drive searched.
>>288530215It's fun for playing with friends. Online is probably a barren wasteland
>>288530299>with friendsYeah...
>>288530312a girl-friend can also work if she's into these kind of things.But if you're looking for a more active community then check out shinobi striker
>>288530215I've only ever played the 2nd Storm game but it was pretty good. The boss fights are, in a lot of cases, better than both the anime and manga imo.Mained Sasuke because he was cool. He had an enhanced jutsu that turned his normal fireball into 2 of those fire dragons he used against Itachi and he was also the only character who changed the way he looked after his awakening ended (his shirt stayed off) which was badass. I think they introduced that kind of mechanic of clothes / armour being removed after damage or awakenings in the later games for other characters instead of just Sasuke.
>>288530215I used to play the third one a whole lot. A key component is the Awakening/Ultimate jutsus that are only used when you are near death.
>>288530450>mechanic of clothes / armour being removed after damage or awakeningsKinoMaybe it's worth playing for the campaign alone. Doesn't the 2nd game have an overworld to it too or something? I may have heard wrong.
>>288530450>bossfights are better than in the manga/animeall of them or just specific cases?
>>288530491How would you compare it to the second?
>>288530262well, they don't get developed beyond their introduction.
>>288525404ARIGATO, OUR LEADER!
New Official ino naruto art with her fairy outfit
>>288530296Same with the Sasuke larper who has a J in his name.
>>288530510Yeah 2nd game has a world you can roam but it's very, very linear. Main story is still pretty fun overall.>>288530559Just some of them. The cinematic / QTE tend to be a lot more action packed and fast paced than the anime as befitting of a video game.Even if you were to prefer the anime, the game offers a fresh take on the fights which is pretty enjoyable in itself.
>>288527068>>288527352>>288527699Nobody was ever gonna care about all the 9 jinchuriki's, no great writer is capable of that. It would have been better if they stayed dead after being extracted but Kishi couldn't do that anymore since he already resurrected Gaara.The tailed beasts just suck as a concept. Did anyone even like any of them? There's a reason Sage Naruto is so hype it's because he refuses to lean on Kurama for power. Naruto friendship with Kurama should have been out of pure necessity and survival, not the goofy shit we actually got. Kurama should have been the one to unironically use TNJ on Naruto and remove his hatred for being a jinchuriki. Have him then fight Sauce after this and the series ends there. No war arc or alien shit afterwards.
>>288531315>cinematic / QTE tend to be a lot more action packed and fast paced than the anime as befitting of a video game.yeah, i imagine even the dumb parts like the war are even still fun to play through in video game format.>fresh take on the fights which is pretty enjoyable in itself.sounds interesting. i'll get them when they're on sale.
>>288531315>the game offers a fresh take on the fights which is pretty enjoyable in itself.Nta but that does sound pretty cool. I don't mind when directors take artistic liberty, as long as it fits within the theme.
>>288531333Tailed beasts would have been cool if the series was about them and they were the ceiling of power.But the series isn't about them, they are plot devices and get powercliffed the second they get introduced. Except of course the main duo.
>>288531333>The tailed beasts just suck as a concept. Did anyone even like any of them? There's a reason Sage Naruto is so hype it's because he refuses to lean on Kurama for power.yeah, naruto finally learning not to rely on kurama for power was nice and showed naruto's growth.i think the tailed beasts are poorly implemented in part 2 for many reasons we (other anons and i) have discussed already.
>>288531389wdym if the series was about them? i agree they shouldn't have been powercreeped, especially so soon.
>we (other anons and i)
Threadly reminder that Kaguya is still the peak of power in all of Naruto and Boruto. Boruto's power level doesn't even come close to the end of the War arc in Naruto once 10-tails and Six Paths Chakra come into play.Kaguya one shot Isshiki before she even ate the chakra fruit.
>>288531432The strongest one... in the Ninja World. lolThe official channel has just teased that there are more ootsutsuki beyond this one planet.
>>288531432I agree simply because she's a cutie
I love Naruto

>>288531423i didn't know if the anon i was just talking to was one of the same anons i talked to about the same topic and i didn't want to assume he was and sound schizophrenic.
I'm getting the feeling that Momoshiki was inspired by this character from these novels.

>>288530673Welcome
>>288528407Why did Obito put his rod in her boob
one thing that bugs me about later eye powers is how unintuitive they seem. it made sense why eye powers would give the user vision related powers, but why can they summon black holes, rewrite reality, revive people, and summon kaijus?
>>288529953>>288530100>>288530296>>288530181A 15 years old liking older women is pretty normal actually, most of us didn't really thought about grooming or pedophilia because dumb boys with boners won't actually consider the connotations of craving sexual relationship with an adult woman.Granted, Ikefucko could definitely have worded this better, considering the stuff people say about him.
>>288531432>womanLol, lmao
>>288531728Zuo Mo is a body cultivator, he cultivates powers to prevent his body from decaying and attain eternal life. the ootsutsuki use vessels, but for a similar effect. Zuo Mo is also a low rank body cultivator in his universe, with an unknown past.It was actually someone on /co/ who brought the xianxia argument to my attention. Because to me it seems that it's where the ootsutsuki mostly derives from.
Wakey wakey, a 5 minute Boruto recap video has just dropped https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2NbNxNGRiX0
>>288531840>>288530296>>288530100Well it's Japan. Their comfort with this group of people is quite disturbing. The author of Rurouni Kenshin was found with tons of materials featuring horrific things involving children and he just had to pay a fine and went right back to publishing his manga. Possession of these materials has only been illegal as of 2014. I expanded upon it in previous comments.
>>288532001Do you remember the whole controversy when Oda supported the author of Rurouni Kenshin too, which is very telling
>>288531473No Otsutsuki outside of Shibai can compare to Kaguya, and Shibai literally fucked off out of existence.>>288531474Shes definitely a Yamato type.>>288531869Who can compare to her outside of Shibai who had to eat countless chakra fruit while she only ate 1 and was creating her own universes causally.
i've thought kumomaru had a dog with him for a while but it could also technically be a stylized tanuki, fitting the eye marks.
>>288532063>Oda supported the author of Rurouni Kenshin too, which is very tellingStP is a very big One Piss fan...the evidence keeps piling up...
>>288532001>>288532063wasn't there also a recent controversy with a different mangaka and he received a lot of negative feedback? just saying. clearly not everyone in japan is cool with it.
>>288532166Not sure
>>288532063Yea i thought Oda was the pedo ? No
>>288532135Kishimoto also rides watasuki's dick, idiot.
>>288531539You can't, Neji.. It's a forbidden love. Bury your feelings deep down, for Hinata's sake if nothing else.
>>288532678Why is she bullying Naruto like this?
>>288532650Damn, StP...it's not looking good...
>>288525502I still don't understand how Hanzo was such a big enough threat to spark an entire Ninja war
>>288532714He likes that from her.
>>288532870True, he likes Hinata but she cant give him that kind of satisfaction.
>>288532967Hinata can literally give him the best BDSM he could ask for.
why do people say Kishimoto didn't plan the final reveal when Zetsu was always a fucking creepy alien lifeform thing and not a real shinobi
>>288525481damn Tenten stopped 1 zetsu! 99999 more to go!
>>288525540Why is he so confident? this is WAR. people could DIE. yet he's dropping lines like he's trying to farm aura
>>288532001I find it odd how his editors are hiding their identity, considering how during Shippudens run there was a news segment each morning with the editors of the manga discussing it ??
>>288533100Orochimaru is a snake person. Kisame is a shark person. Sasori was a living puppet. You really think Zetsu was so much stranger than any of the other characters? Not to mention the flashback where he was Madara's "will" and then that got retconned for the alien bunny spawn.
>>288533100I don't think anyone expected ninja aliens when Zetsu was first revealed.
introducing aliens was stupid but i like how they're bunnies to tie into the "rabbit in the moon".
>>288533100i think foreshadowing technically goes back to the pain arc iirc.
>>288525427I hate how much of a bootlicker Kishi is. Sasuke should have killed them.
>>288525446When do you think Kishimoto started about the real Black Zetsu goal? Because not here for sure.
>>288525404>a whole nation of ninja we never get to see
>>288533314>iircYou don't
>>288531432>>288532093Kaguya jobbed to human cock.
>>288525438This is so stupid. anyone that can get airborne would see all 5 from a top down perspective
>>288525481the only thing ten ten does in the whole manga btw
>>288533473Not true, she also looks cute and jobs.
>>288533445Actually it was human cock that made her experience love for the first time, enhancing her Chakra so she could one-shot Isshiki. The strangest thing is, Hagaromo comments that Kaguya lost her love for humanity and became feared. Likewise people talk about the Otsutsuki not having love. Like how do the Otsutsuki breed if they don't have love? They obviously have male and female anatomy compatible with humans.
>>288533615My guess is that they view reproduction more like a conformit or a job rather than because they actually want to have kids or raise them.
>>288528943So they're dna clones and not resurrected corpses?
>>288533706You need DNA to cast the jutsu. It creates a brand new, fake, undead body around the sacrifice. The original body is still out there, as shown by Tobi tracking down the real Nagato and stealing his eyes even after Kabuto summoned Nagato in front of him.
>>288533706Anon. It's 1 chapter a day. How do you manage to speedread?
>>288533434i was misremembering but kishi was planning to do something with the moon since the pain arc.
>>288533289dude I never made the connection until nowso that's why she has bunny ears!!
Where's Itachi?
>>288534032dude, i'm just stating an opinion!!
>>288534032You're pretty stupid, huh?
>>288534046I wasn't being sarcastic btw I totally never made the connection until now
>>288534077well, shit. it's hard to tell sometimes. sorry.
Why is there no bunny bijuu?
Low IQ posting hours apparently
>>288534154Hagaromo was too traumatized by his mom to make anything Bunny-like with Creation-Of-All-Things
>>288525427Kishi thought he cooked with this page
>>288531333>Did anyone even like any of them?No one liked any of them besides ultimate autists like the Yugito spammer.But you can't really blame them because Kishi absolutely refused to even make them characters, yet clearly took his time actually designing their appearances. I guess they just needed something for the Akatsuki to do, a background reason as to why they're not absolutely fucking blitzing the fuck out of Naruto. But then again that was kinda handwaved away anyway.The Jinchuriki as an entire plot concept was just an absolute jumbled mess and Kishi clearly had no fucking clue what he was doing with them.
>>288531333>no great writer is capable of thatYou don't seriously believe that, do you?
>>288533473that's what the anime filler is for. shit, sure it's pointless but it at least does something with the side characters and has some fun interactions.
fuu should've stayed alive so gaara had a female naruto to... hang out with.
We really didn't need a 2nd thread today
>>288535034>we gotta keep HIM here.?
>>288535020>old thread had barely 120 posts left>new thread already has almost 300Are you retarded?
>>288535034>capitalizing him like you are talking about GodI know he's your idol but that's a little excessive.
>>288535020OP had to change threads because the powerscaling anon completely hijacked his thread. It became about the powerscaling conversation, not the chapter he posted, so he got angry and immediately started a new thread.
>>288535155Retard
>>288531762the sharingan relates to material reality
Whatever happened to that Hidan larper chick? And all those other zany characters that coincidentally all loved StP?
>>288535703Probably left after the pain arc or 5ks like any sane person would
>>288535703Why do you care?
>>288535703hi poopsuke
>>288535826I like to point out things i notice
They did my boy Onoki dirty in the boruto anime
>Boruto anime
>>288535703They're not needed since he's OP again. They all dissappeared when "Replacement" took over.
>>288535954You're still "green", "anon".
>>288529808>meet potential mangaIt all makes sense now.
>>288531759Humiliation ritual. The more important question is, did he remove her bra or did she not have one?
>>288525427based
Bump.
>>288525493>They stand side-by-side as equals.>Equals where one can lobotomize the other with a thought.
>>288531333Tailed beasts/Jinchuriki could have been cool but for some reason Kishi made Kurama stronger than beasts 1-7 (and probably 8 as well) put together. So now the system where they're used to balance out villages makes no sense because the majority of them are all worthless, Shukaku unironically struggles with normal summons and Yugito loses to the weakest Akatsuki pair. I get the plot demands the Jinchuriki all die, but Jinchuriki should feel like monsters and they really don't.
>>288538207The setting never even needed this pokemon catch em all garbage.There are magic creatures that sometimes get sealed into people to use some of their power, just leave it at that for crying out loud. No need to turn it into a fucking power rangers collectible toy set that combines into a giant robot.
>>288538207>Shukaku unironically struggles with normal summonsdidn't gamabunta get too tired and was nearly ready to leave while shukaku was still blasting him?but i agree with your overall point.
>>288538207Tbf, Hidan and Kakuzu are extremely scary as a pair and should be able to take out pretty much anyone, EXCEPT a perfect jinchuriki
>>288533835I actually think the Viz's translation has its charm. It leaves some mystery to it, since by here we still don't know much about the guy.
>>288538289i wonder if kishimoto just took his editor's advice too far.>Having him make the names of jutsu consistent for worlbuilding's sake, rather than random and all over the place.>make things consistent instead of random/all over the placemaybe the 9 tails and tanuki demon were too "random" and needed to fit some worldbuilding purpose instead so bijuu were created and the 2 prior demons got grouped in too, of course.
>>288538893this. translators should just randomly omit words because it makes things mysterious!
>>288539543Was it ever a problem when you had a crap ton of pirate sites with their own translation?No, not it wasn't.What's a problem to me is now having people throw phrases of a foreign language they can't even read, onto an AI in an attempt to make a point.
>>288539681Newfag. Bad translations have always and will always be bad.
>>288539681The viz translation is full of mistakes that still feed into common misconceptions nowadays. I noticed multiple by looking only at a tiny portion of the manga, so I don't want to know how much else there is. (or maybe it's unusually many in that part)
>>288539835Non sequitur. Shove it up your ass, honestly.>>288540228Ah, yes, go on and post the "this blade can cut all things in the universe", like you've been on Twitter. Add your shitty personal take too, like it makes a ton of a difference."Oh he didn't mean to say universe, ook ook, he mean to say landscape. ook ook eeh eeh ehhe ehh"Fuck off retard.You barelly know how to interpret texts in english, let alone japanese.
>>288528661>>288528665Jungle fever has rotted your brains this bad, huh.
>>288540438Are you a translator at viz or something?
>>288537969Hinata doing that is such an impossibility that Neji was completely fine talking shit to her at the exams despite being raised to fear punishment from the main branch.
>>288533615Now i'm reminded of that one doujinshi about Kaguya being a horny bitch who had both male and female lovers in the past. It's never getting finished, sadly.
>>288540513No, I'm a guy who's been tracking this conversation since twitter.You morons shouldn't even be allowed to use auto translators in the first place.
>>288540671why do you defend mistranslations?
>>288540671This may be shocking to you but this is not twitter and I am not the same person you were seemingly melting down about there. Maybe you should take your conversation and yourself back to where you came from.
>>288525493The first win Hinata ever had and it's off-screen, kek. Kishi really had it out for her.
>>288540703Simple, the internet exists, multiple sources of information of the same subject also exist, to explain you the meaning of the text in those speech balloons.You shouldn't even just be relying in a single source of information to understand the plot of this story, because even the original text is full of contrivances tied to bad story telling or simply lack of real development in the story at the time.Which means I'm even less eager to accept your take based on old text, be it japanese or english.Like fuck me, they're having a discussion about chakra and dimensions now. Lots of people putting text in AI to uphand other people.What if they call "dimension" just another sector of space? What if it's an actual dimension but the author just doesn't care enough to explain it? Sometimes not even the japanese editors know the answer, often not even the mangaka who's writing this fucking story, because he's either making shit as it goes, or he just thinks the words are pretty enough to be used but then later decides to change his mind because xianxia shit just isn't as fun as Invincible.
>>288540744Oh nononono, whoever posted that image came very heated from Twitter. I know because I've been osmosing their discussions.
>>288540832Are you unfamiliar with the concepts of images being saved and posted by more than one person?Your original point is awful btw, the moon being removed from the sentence doesn't make it more mysterious, it makes it less mysterious, since how the moon is supposed to be related to this is the actual mystery. Without it the content is literally just "the sage existed and he was strong".Also the mistranslation I was talking about were completely different from what you reflexively assumed.
>>288528596He was right that Hinata was fated to be a jobber and that's what ultimately got him killed. I wish i was joking.
>>288540907His fault for not teaching her kaiten or training her so she could be fast enough to deal with those shitty spikes.
>>288525404Just do it.
>>288540804okay. yes, sometimes people do try to nitpick every little translation choice even if they don't make much difference. sometimes people who don't know the language use ai to try to parse some kind of hidden meaning that doesn't exist. i've seen the type.but the sage of 6 paths creating the moon is information that existed in the jp script that didn't make it over into the official localization. this is a genuine mistranslation for an important upcoming plot point and it gets looked over sometimes because not everyone knows about this being a mistranslation.this is objectively poor translation work. maybe you can defend the translators. like sure, they're busy, probably working on multiple translations for viz at once under a time crunch. their job is just to push something out the door on their allotted time.and scanlation groups don't have this problem and still sometimes get things wrong anyway (some hxh chapters come to kind for having a lot of differing translations and confusing wording).but even if you defend that the person behind the translation is simply human too, you still have to see that a mistranslation is still a poor translation.that i can't defend.and sure, maybe you can prefer a bad translation for sovl or some other reason. i know i wish the version that didn't mention the sage of 6 paths creating the moon was real because that entire plot point is retarded.but a translation that misses information is still bad no matter what my preferences are.and there are varying degrees to how bad a translation can be. some stuff gets changed because there's no equivalent in the target language (example: gaara's "tanuki neiri" jutsu gets officially translated as the "playing possum" jutsu likely because no kid in the west watching naruto would get the metaphor about tanuki pretending to sleep or even know what a tanuki is).
Naruto's shitty friends don't matter. It should only be Naruto and Sasuke.
>>288525540tobiramabros?
>>288541081>Naruto and SasukeThe worst characters in Naruto.
>>288540887I don't trust you not being one of those guys from Twitter, for one. This is an anonymous site.And If I recognize something from Twitter it will trigger my shinobi precog.And I agree with you, it's bad that that part is ommitted. Ok bro, but I also just said it has its own charm because by that point in the story we barelly even know who Hagoromo is. And Kaguya wasn't even foreshadowed there, so the point of the moon being something worth mention, outside of power levels (the thing you care about), just isn't there. But whatever, yes you're right.But my second point is also that even the time, we already the internet. When Naruto was getting really popular, the internet was taking off. Videogame guides were being phased out because people would use the internet for everything.
>>288541249>it has its own charmno it doesn't
>>288541302Ok. That was my opinion.Here's more about me, at the time I had skipped that part in the manga. I only came back to Naruto because of Ninja Storm 2, and that dialogue isn't even there. lmaoYou know what effect this had on me? The stretch from Sasuke's rescue (the arc where I had previously dropped Naruto) to the end of Pain's arc is just a blur to me. Even though I've forced myself to read it already. It doesn't connect with me at all.I still think Storm 2 was goated as fuck.
>>288541443don't care about any of thisthe translation was shit
>>288541081naruto basically acts like sasuke is the only one who exists for most of part 2 anyway.
NS just wont die off
and this isn't even getting into the translations being inconsistent like some jutsu keeping their jp names while some get localized.rasengan and chidori keep their jp names while tanuki neiri gets localized.terms like sharingan and byakugan keep their jp names.sannin doesn't get translated. probably because they thought "the legendary 3" sounded stupid.this doesn't matter in the slightest. but it's still inconsistent. less bad than the moon thing but still odd.
>>288541481Why are you being mean to me?
>>288541574This is about you winning "muh favorite beats your favorite" argument online. Because deep down, you didn't understand the message of friendship this manga was trying to pass.You will always be full of hatred.
>>288541671...what?...
>>288541531If only those artist focus their creativity on something else.
>>288541249If you can interact with the arguments made by anonymous posters without having a schizo attack and assuming it's the same guys out to get you, then get the fuck off this site.
>>288541740>being mean to mewould Naruto be mean to other people?
>>288541671What kind of faggot retard defends naruto? You subhuman faggots are on the same level of bronies.
Whatever. Keep being mean to me. That will just deepen my devotion to Boruto.
>>288541858Naruto has good morals, he was friends and kind to people. Which is a trait people these days seem to have lost.I can sense your heart is filled with hatred for sure. I wonder how many racial slurs you say a day.
>>288541878Naruto feels like a character who can work in the 90s with limited budget but doesn't work in digital manga.
We literally have a song that starts with "YOU ARE MY FRIEND" how did the main message in this anime not connect with you? Naruto had weaponized friendship, in both literal and metaphorical sense.
there were 2 other anons i think arguing with you about the translation quality but you replied to me about how i didn't understand naruto's message and i was full of hatred and i thought i was being pretty understanding. oof. i'm sorry, anon. but i got really confused then.it was kinda funny though i guess. not sure where this argument is going now though lmao. have fun and see you guys next time.
>>288541908Naruto should've just been deleted from this timeline. We do not deserve it if the message doesn't reach people.Wars are still being fought, people are still being mean to each others despite his best efforts.
>>288541929You made this post >>288540438Fuck off with your whining.
>>288541955That wasn't me. I was being possessed by my inner demon of rage at the time I wrote it. I have conquered my rage now, I'm asking you to please do the same.
>tfw I'm not like Naruto in a sense of being like Naruto at all
>>288532834They nerfed him hard. He should've been at least on the level to be a threat to Pain
>>288541950The problem I have is that none of the characters come across as consistent with their goals.
Why didn't they trap Kurama inside Tsunade if she was the grandaughter of Kushina?
>>288540907>>288541013Neji's own kaiten was failing against those juubi sticks and later on Hiashi says neither of them would be able to stop the attack that killed Neji.It's not a matter of strength but rather that they should've been smarter about protecting Naruto.
>>288541862Remove Itachi and Fugaku
>>288542041that is true. It's like mixing multiple beverages in a big cauldron and mixing it. But Naruto is still a story about friend ship, even if the means to attain that result were... complicated.For me, only Obito is the number one cutie. He deserved to be happy and die with friends at his side.Madara though? I'm just glad that he got the message. But he is a problematic character.

>>288542714That's it you old man, you managed to piss me off. I'm going to summon my immortal legendary edo tensei, plus a giant snake, an eternal night, just to fight that god tier technique you're using
>>288542714weird how Hiruzen knows every single technique in the village including family specific ones like Ino-Shiki-Cho as well as all 5 nature transformation yet he barely did anything with this even when he had infinite chakra as an Edo Tensei.Like with all 5 natures could do wood, lava, and particle style himself?
Naruto is my FUARKING hero. He's just and right, he helps the ones in need and teaches about compassion and friendship. Example, he's currently helpng poor Brazillian kids.
>>288543326Don't tell anyone that all it says in this image is that Naruto also needed help when he was a kid.

>>288527464I didn't know you could make Ino even more perfect
>>288544022lets be honest, all the mechanics of ninjutsu disappear after the Retrieval Arc.Elements never counter eachother, raisen-shuriken doesn't cost naruto his lifespan, Sage Mode doesn't require stillness and meditation.
>>288543566>Could two people with the jutsu revive the same person and make them fight each other?No, it's one at a time. However, if someone took someone else's eyes, you can resurrect both of them and get 2 copies of the same eyes. Madara's (actually his brother's) eyes had 3 pairs around for a while: Nagato's eyes, Edo Tensei Madara's eyes, and the real, still living eyes.
>>288544046>Naruto and Sasuke focusing on Sakura instead of each othernot believable
