Naruto is beck!

[Ayn]

Am I the only one who appreciated the throwback to some of the old BGMs in this week's episode? Don't get me wrong: Shippuden has more serious music which fits the mood.

And wow, I also forgot how obnoxious Naruto was back then. I used to hate the kid until the Neji fight.

Did anyone also consider the fact that it could've been the first in the last WHO'S THAT EDO TENSEI SUM-MON Lottery?

Still, I dunno. Kabutomaru said something to the effect of "Now you HAVE to obey/listen/whatever". As badass as Minato was, that potentially rules him out.

The First was summoned by Orochimaru when he fought the Third. The Third sealed him (and the Second) with the Death Seal, so can't be him.

The summoning technique itself is pretty vague though, all we know is a living sacrifice is put in dirt and the jutsu itself recreates the body and no mention has been made if anything of the original person is needed to summon them, only that they are dead. Assuming it draws an actual soul to affix to the corpse that belonged to the original person, then the 1st through 4th Hokage aren't viable since they're all sealed due to the Dead Demon Technique. Otherwise it could very well be the 1st or 4th since they're the only Hokage we know who could defeat him in that state and might shock him. Either that or someone who is dead that we aren't expecting to be dead or don't know about yet.

I don't really buy the whole "he's not really Madara" thing, I mean it's possible but this flashback itself shows that the 4th was able to deduce that the only probable person the person he was fighting could be was Madara, meaning it's well within the scope of his powers to be alive for that along but probably super old and pruny. Unless Madara himself is a summon performed by the 1st since he could use that technique.

well, that deduction was also followed by him saying "no, you couldn't be". I'm not saying that he isn't Madara, but we can't say it is solely based on what the 4th said/thought.
But there's some reason why he's still wearing the mask, even if it's not just to hide his identity.

The Third stops the 3rd coffin from being summoned in the manga, you never see it. Only in the anime does it appear with the word "Yon" on it. Since Yondaime's soul was sealed with half of the Nine Tails we can assume he wasn't in that third coffin. Since Edo Tensei summons a soul into a sacrificed body.

He sealed them but then let the bunshins disappear, so it's most likely that they went back to being where ever they were before. That's they way I thought of it at least.

I cried several manly tears. That was an amazing chapter

[Ragnus]

Tears, I have shed them.

Shit. Was holding it together fine until Kushina started to give Naruto her last words and wished she had more time. Going to have to make sure I watch this while the wife is sleeping when its finally animated, so she doesn't see me crying like a bitch.

Saw the anime filler episode and it made me really miss some of the old naruto music before the time jump.



You know everytime you heard this shit was about to go down.

[Ayn]

That and Rock Lee's theme were two of my favorites.

[Salodin]

Yeah that music along with a few others was awesome. It's like you heard it and were automatically like "OH SHIT HERE WE GO!!!!".

[Colenzo]

bunch of pussies

[Meat]

That and Rock Lee's theme were two of my favorites.

the scene where lee saves sakura from the sound 3 is still one of my favs to this day

[AoE]

Whoever changed the topic title, I love you because I always read it that way.

[Ayn]

Believe it.

http://crunchier.co.cc/ - Not sure if anyone else consider Horrible/CrunchySubs to be eyecancer, yet hates how long Taka takes, but if so I'm really liking these releases.

As for this episode, kind of lame to spend the entire hour on, but not that bad I guess.

[Yabby]

I couldn't watch these eps. I like bad ass naruto.
