Two things about those spoilers...

Spoiler: show

Yeah, Madara needs to hurry the hell up and whisk Sasuke away so we can avoid further stupidity.

**Khajit** · 2010-03-09 13:44

Itachi's plan B needs to come out and save that plot twist.

And the eight tails doesnt seem to affect Killerbee too much but he probably holds it back with raw pimpitude. If he was any less of a character it probably would have alot more say in things which would be a bad thing considering gaara as an example. The Raikage being able to beat Killerbee also was probably a factor since the 8 tails eventually (i theorize) learned it couldnt go around beating the crap out of everyone and get away with it.

Did they actually say that they were the "evil" ones? i just assumed it was because those two were the youngest, that they didn't have a chance to fully control and build a mutual respect. Thus using their tailed beast productively for the village and being accepted by the as asset instead of burden/taboo.

Ugh... terrible. Things go from low to high to low in this manga, I swear.

**ronin sparthos** · 2010-03-09 14:24

So when does the Ninja World War start already? Madara needs to stock up on Sharingan dive-bombers, uboats and tanks because Naruto is turning the manga into a shitty daytime soap opera.

Hes not going back to Konoha in anything short of a bodybag, Naruto. Stop trying. Do they need to have him kill Sakura in cold-blood to get the point across? Methinks so.

Anywho, Madara declared the start of a new ninja war right? Does he actually have anyone on his side besides the captured beasts, the sauce and the remnants of the akatsuki? lol.

**Khajit** · 2010-03-09 14:31

It just occurred to me. Maybe this emo phase is Madara induced via sharringa in order to make Naruto capturable since without using it subtly he'd have failed or had to fight naruto and possibly lose?
I'm just trying to keep hope up here!

**Lucavi** · 2010-03-09 14:37

Your ava is all that keeps me hopeful. Boobies will lead us into the golden age.

That's the thing though. After killing Danzo he's already attempted to kill Sakura... twice. He's also stated at least once or twice that he'd consider it a pleasure to kill Kakashi, and would have if not for Kakashi's Mangekyou. I can understand wanting to "save" your friend... but sheesh after everything that's happened there really shouldn't be any reason to even try.

At this point I can only hope that the Sauce is taken away, recovers, and then lays waste to Konoha or actually kills off someone close to Naruto. Just need SOMETHING to end this ridiculous mindset of "I'll attempt to save Sasuke no matter what evil deeds he has or plans to commit." I mean seriously... even if by some miracle Sasuke is "saved," the vast majority if not all of the ninja world will still consider him a criminal.

And yeah, at this point Madara's team consists of him, the Sauce, the tailed-beasts, and Zetsu.

**Akiyama** · 2010-03-09 15:50

Yeah. Quite predictable. We should know that he can't keep up the level of epicness through multiple chapters. Oh well, at least Sakura doesn't get shit outta this. Eat that! You don't get Sasuke OR Naruto. Bitch.

**Ivaden** · 2010-03-09 16:50

Unbelievable that Naruto shows up and is suddenly more fucking emo than Sasuke. Could have been in each other's shoes for sure.

**KuroTsuki** · 2010-03-09 19:28

I guess I'm one of the few that finds Naruto's response pretty reasonable lol. He's been lonely almost his whole life till he got into team 7 and became closer to Sasuke, getting to the point where he sees him as a brother. I just see it as him being desperate to save someone he's become very close to. He's just special in that way. I mean, shit, he suppressed his feelings of avenging Jiraiya, and instead got help from his killer. He's able to look pass certain things.

I like it better this way. It's easy to write a story where someone has to kill a friend cause they became evil. Trying to convert them back to good is a different story, though, even if it is only for a single moment when they're about to die.

**Ivaden** · 2010-03-09 21:12

Sasuke just tried to kill the girl Naruto has been head over heels since forever, twice, and is threatening to kill Kakashi for sport more or less. Naruto's reaction of "HEY GUYS CMAN LETS BE FRIENDS STILL OR ILL DIE WITH YOU SASUKE" is anything but believable, just like killing Pain with words.

If anything, this situation was completely predictable and completely disappointing.

At this point though Sasuke has really gone too far. Naruto would have to be an idiot to think that Sasuke can be brought back at this point. He tried to kill two of the people who are closest to Naruto, and he nearly killed his own comrade for the sake of revenge. Even if he forgives Sasuke and thinks that there is still good in him, no one else is going to trust him. He tried to kidnap a host, killed an acting Hokage and says he won't rest until Konoha is annihilated. Naruto cannot be so stupid that he thinks it will be possible to bring Sasuke back.

Naruto and Sasuke seriously need to just quit this shit and go have dinner together while crying over a bucket of ice cream about how they're all alone.y

After reading so much Bakuman lately, I'm curious about the rankings for Naruto, Bleach, and OP, in terms of votes.

lol

i dont mind it that much, but i can agree that its starting to get old. thats how he connected with gaara and a million other ppl. "im alone and the village hated me. but now im strong, and ppl accept me. tee hee" gawd lol. sounds like a NBA player that made it to the pros from south central

**Akiyama** · 2010-03-10 07:33

LOL. I never thought of a NBA connection. That's funny.

But really. Naruto's not a badass ninja. He's a badass Psychiatrist. He talks people down and defeats them with words. That or his Rasengan. Jesus fucking christ. Get something new pleeease.

That site posts the weekly votes. They're pretty fast too.

OP is almost always first, unless there's a new manga starting (1st chapter votes are usually pretty high) or there's a lead color page, which is automatic first. Naruto is usually 2nd, and Bleach 3rd. Beelzebub, along with a few others have beaten Bleach a couple of times, though.

**Akiyama** · 2010-03-10 08:47

Wow. Bakuman's actually doing pretty good too. ;o Go figure.
