Naruto

[Ayn]

Next next week, no Naruto next week.

Why must you hurt me with reality so.

The fact that she's in Naruto's mind along with Minato? Seriously? You're telling me she's in there without Minato knowing?

Maybe next week we'll have Naruto's brother or sister from when Kushina and Minato were making out in his mind.

Naw, I know Kushina's chakra had a part in sealing the Kyuubi, but the way you said she helped Minato made it sound like she was right there on the battlefield helping. If you didn't mean it that way, then my bad.

The fact that Minato, or anyone in the village for that matter, never even mentions Kushina's help during the sealing of the kyuubi in Naruto is suspect at best.

Why Minato doesn't mention it, I dunno. Maybe it was 'cause it all happened during a bad time so he didn't have much more time to chat (He couldn't chain Pein down like Kushina did to Kyuubi.) As for the village; Going by what the 3rd's sealing technique looks like(since it's supposed to be the same as the 4th's,) nobody can see Death till it touches them, so how would the village know what was going on? All they saw was the 4th looking at the Kyuubi probably.

The rest of the answers you guys have given to me sound more like speculation then it does concrete evidence.

You're presenting a speculatory standpoint, you're going to get speculatory remarks.

It was never mentioned that Minato was Naruto's father but it was always strongly hinted by the 3rd and Jiraiya. Honestly, no one was surprised when Jiraiya's flashback while he was dying confirmed it. Go and reread some of the earlier chapters, the whole manga is directed as Naruto being the first jinchuuriki of the kyuubi. Kushina being the previous host is a "WTF!?" completely.

When Kushina was first mentioned as Minato's wife, my first thought was.. "She was the previous host." Every village had their own hosts since at worse when the first hokage was there. You honestly thought that konoha didn't have their own? It's pretty damn obvious that the kyuubi was inside a host in konoha before naruto was there.

Another thing, Kushina was from another village yet it has always been stated that the 9-Tails attack on Konoha was some kind of freak natural disaster. The Kage's also claimed during the summit that the bijuu hosts always comes from the upper echelon of the village to ensure loyalty. This means someone in the inner circle in Konoha must have known. Jiraiya, who thought of Minato like a son and was closest to him didn't know? Especially since he was the one who initially decided the 9-Tails attack wasn't a natural disaster yet held the key to allow Naruto to fight the Kyuubi chakra right now with Kushina? The fact that Minato, or anyone in the village for that matter, never even mentions Kushina's help during the sealing of the kyuubi in Naruto is suspect at best. People in the village constantly spoke of the heroism of the 4th during the whole incident but fail to mention the person closest to him that helped him through the process? Or even the person that possibly caused all of it by putting the blame on Kushina? Come on...

A host that had control over the kyuubi randomly going out of control for no apparent reason, or possibly due to child birth? That sure as hell fits a natural disaster. Kushina was the fourth hokages wife, is that not loyal enough for you? Where was it ever said that Jiraiya didn't know anything about her being the host? Why would anyone mention Kushina's help during the sealing? Pretty much no one would be able to see it happening, most likely only Minato knew. Of course Minato doesn't mention it; he had only a few minutes to talk to his son. He also knows that his son will see his mother via the same method soon enough. People hated the kyuubi, people who didn't know any better hated Kushina, and therefore the Uzumaki name, because they thought she went out of control.

Unless her being the previous host was a super secret she kept to herself, Kishi has a lot of explaining to do like how the fuck does Madara factor into all this? Again, unless Madara took control of her before/after? birth while she was alone, someone would have known. Not this secretive crap like, "I think there was someone behind the 9-Tails attack...maybe???" Ffs, Minato wasn't even sure.

You do remember that Madara can teleport himself where ever the hell he wants right? It's not that hard for him to teleport to where Kushina is, kill anybody around her (if there are any at all), and make the kyuubi go crazy. Minato wasn't even sure? I like how you just blatantly make up things and present them as fact.

You're asserting your own interpretations and opinions waaaay to strongly. At some points you're just making stuff up to support your standpoint, even if it contradicts what happened in the manga.

Okay, so I'm usually all in for randomly speculating/debating shit that hasn't/doesn't/wouldn't/couldn't happen, but this shit is bananas. Just wait a week for it all to get explained, because it will all get explained. This isn't Bleach, we don't have to speculate/complain/bitch/argue about random things thrown into the story that is never mentioned again.

Didn't bother reading through the plotkai speculation bullshit so don't know if anyone mentioned this. Anyone notice Naruto had the Sage of the six paths necklace on when he had his SSJ aura?

http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/367/10/ Before Jiraiya leaves they more or less say that Minato is his father, but they do say Kushina is his mother. Only thing I find strange is Jiraiya is like "oh yeah that was her name" of the woman who was his student's lover, Naruto's mother and apparently the Kyuubi host too

I don't necessarily see that as strange. Jiraiya very obviously spent a lot of time away from Konoha, he probably came back mostly to see Minato and may not have always done that at his home to meet Kushina. I mean during those years Jiraiya was off chasing Orochimaru, training Nagato, writing books, etc.

[Maguspk]

Or maybe she wasn't the host for a long period of time. It does not seem like she was a host coming into Konoha so perhaps she was like an intermediary host or something?

He's met Kushina at least once, he did bring "The Gutsy Ninja" for Minato to read, which was the point at which Minato asked Jiraiya to be Naruto's godfather, to which Kushina agreed.

So it's not as if he was unfamiliar with Kushina. There's certainly no way that, with all Jiraiya's intelligence gathering abilities, he wouldn't know who the latest kyubi jinchuriki is.



I do agree with Hirokei Kiaza that Kushina's introduction seems like a hasty last-minute introduction to the story, but I have confidence that, unlike Kubo, Kishimoto will make her presence fit into the story somewhat cleverly.

ftfy

[Ayn]

That same chapter said Naruto's face was more like his father's, but Kushina says it's more like hers, with his father's hair.

I also wonder if it was just badly written to make it seem like Nostalgia and reminiscing, or something.

[Vajra]

I feel that everyone, compared to Naruto is weak sauce now man...He's gotten two HUEG power boosts in a row now...I have a feeling that Naruto will lose an arm or a leg to Sasuke though. People always lose limbs in big fights of anime...(most recent was Raikage losing his arm to Amaterasu...)

[Vandole]

he didn't lose that shit, he gave that away cause he doesnt need it

edit: trying to find a pic of raikage saying that(turns out he didnt. i was thinking of some other anime i think.)

found an interesting pic though.

http://img-c.onemanga.com/mangas/000...5172/02-03.jpg

this was during the kage vs sasuke fights, and i noticed all the akatsuki but itachi had their forehead protectors crossed out. neat little touch.

edit: apparently onemanga doesnt allow hotlinking D:

Shit, with the Kyuubi's chakra under his control now, and his naturally huge chakra, he could take Sasuke's eyes and use them effectively.

Naruto is the only one in the world who can fight with 3 chakras at the same time.. Imagine how hax it would be if he was able to collect natural energy during fox mode by letting the fox fight for him? /fantasy

I always expected the opposite--the kyubi gathering nature chakra in his belly while Naruto fights.

The kyuubi didn't receive the training though, so he'd probably turn into a frog statue. :3
