Naruto

[Parshias]

You all had better be talking only about Shippuuden openings, because if you're talking in general, and no one has brought up Haruka Kanata... Shame on you all.

Didn't see these posted anywhere, granted I just looked in the past few pages. Sorry if they have been.

Confirmed 493 Spoilers:

Spoiler: show

Naruto fights against his dark version who represents his hatred. They both call each other the fake Naruto.

Meanwhile, Bee is beating some huge bears at Sumo and Hachibi tells Bee that he should help Naruto. Hachi says he hates Kyubi but that Hachi used to be bad back in the day before meeting Bee. Bee tells himto shut up and say he won't accept that idiot who insults rap. This part ends with Bee saying "Plus he..."

Naruto and Yami-Naruto are evenly matched in everything and Naruto wakes up and explains the situation to Yamato and Motoi.(the battle was all in Naruto's mind, BTW) Motoi explains that you can't control the Bijuu unless you can win this fight. Naruto asks about Bee and Motoi explains how Bee was hated by everyone but got over it by learning how to express himself. And also that he was able to put up with it because he didn't want to make his brother, the Raikage, look bad. Basically, he accepted the sacrifice for his brother's sake. Naruto asks Motoi to ask Bee to help him but Motoi says he can't. The reason being that Motoi once tried to kill Bee. Next week will focus on a tragic situation that happened 30 years ago.


So a backstory on Bee. Fuck yeah.

^ This. Haruka Kanata looked good and sounded even better.

[Draggy]

Haruka Kanata is still on of my favourite songs after all these years

Yay for backstory on Bee. I know it does nothing for the plot, but I'm kinda interested in him so we shall see how it goes.

[Ragnus]

Crap. Bee's backstory. As exciting as this is... it means he's dying soon. Or does that only apply to Bleach?

[Ratatapa]

Opening 3-4-6 are my favorite from the old naruto

Applies to anyone non-filler in Naruto.

[Ayn]

Hey now, Gaara escaped that rule! Sort of.

And Neji.

[aru]

And Kakashi
And Hinita

[Khajit]

Haku and Zabuza didnt.

Ditto. In my mind it remains the best opening animation and song to date.

I thought Hero's Come Back was impressive too, a close second.

[Xno Kappa]

Shame the American version of Naruto butchered the Haruka Kanata op animation.

Anyway, I was rereading chapters and thinking up random nonsense on the story and came up on something. Why didn't Orochimaru implant himself with Sharingan eyes if he seemingly helped Danzou gain an arm full of them? Not sure if this has been brought up already.

[Deadgye]

He was planning to become Kimimaro, which he viewed as even better than the sharingan right?

I thought about that one too. It actually makes no sense. All I can think of is:

1 - Plothole no jutsu, and Kishimoto forgot
2 - He wasn't sure how the procedure would work out, so he tested it on Danzo
3 - He only had access to the first's DNA (hence the Yamato deal). The Sharingan thing was all Danzo
4 - He just really wanted Sasuke's body.

But yeah, that also makes me wonder: Doesn't Orochimaru's 'new' body begin to reject him after 3 years or so? Or is there something special about the Uchiha? Furthermore, what HAPPENS to the older body? Their subconscious/soul is still around. . so yeah.

[Colenzo]

OH MAN DOES THIS MEAN THAT HES GOING TO TEACH HIM HOW TO RAP?

something fun to read while waiting for the new chapter. lol

[Salodin]

Sharingan doesn't work so well in a non-uchiha body; Hence why it's either Uchiha or bust? Itachi made similar comments to Kakashi when they fought.

He also did mention he really wanted Kimimaro's body, but etc.

This.

In order to fully benefit from the sharingan (be able to deactivate it, not have it waste so much chakra, etc) one needs to be an Uchiha. Add on top of that Oro's need for a new body anyway, and there ya go.

[TheTaru]

My guess is that he either thought the Sharingan would help him learn so much in the time he had Sasuke's body(his ultimate goal was to learn all jutsu, right?) that it'd be worth all the extra effort, or maybe he made his soul-transferring technique last longer. Guess we'll never know.

I really hope Naruto doesn't learn how to rap...

And Kakashi
And Hinita

Kakshi didn't escape it. He did die, he just got Barney and Friends-ed back to life. Same with Hinata and Gaara.

Neji was supposed to be dead, essentially, along with Chouji. Everyone in this fucking show that's a main character and a good guy just gets haxxored back to life on a technicality.

It doesn't make it any less awesome, its just predictable. No matter how much destruction is wrought, if you're team 7 or associated with any sort of youth, you'll survive.
