This would be pointless and completely retarded.

Irish people have red hair. This does not mean everyone with red hair is Irish.

Jaraiya, Kakashi, the 2nd Hokage and Kabuto all have white hair. 3/4 of those have been offered the Hokage position. Obviously this means Kabuto will be the next Hokage.

And to really finish off your theory...

Spoiler: show

Gaara being related to Naruto would be pretty boss though, even though it's practically impossible.

I was actually happy to see Suigetsu again. Up until the point where Sauce is obviously going to get yet another powerup handed to him. I am done with him, he just needs to be killed off already. -_-

Just need the 9tails to come out, look at the Sauce and say "wtf is wrong with this whiny brat" and then eat him.

we don't need more gold and silver brothers.

Gaara would be impossible to be part of the uzumaki clan (well just unlikely but he was able to withstand the one tails so maybe...) and choji's dad could also be related to the clan (cuz vikings didn't have red hair right? wait they did?) only person who couldn't really be related was the current mizukage then again look at nagato, remember eurell you don't have to be 100% to actually be in the bloodline since naruto has blonde hair >.>

They're falling faster than MegaUpload clones... MangaFox has the following message on their Naruto page now:

The series Naruto has been licensed, it is not available in Manga Fox.

Tried to find an announcement or anything on their forums to no avail.

**bechyni** · 2012-02-20 09:36

Well that was fast...

**Salodin** · 2012-02-20 10:11

Eh, fuck it. Hypothetically, if they shut down every avenue to get the manga, ill just forget the series entirely. Its not even that great any more tbh.

**bechyni** · 2012-02-20 10:15

I mean how else (if this situations ever occurred) how would a person be able to get a translation of the manga if it was taken down from the sites we use?

**kuronosan** · 2012-02-20 10:17

Am I the only one who finds it ironic that none of this shit would be popular had it not been for scanlators and bootleggers?

These companies need to get their shit straight. Nobody's going to want to read it or care about it at this point.

**Souj** · 2012-02-20 10:20

Yeah, if I have to start working to find manga sites for bleach and Naruto, I'll just stop reading.
Distributors seem to think that if 100 people have pirated something, that's 100 people's money that they lost that they would have had anyways, when in fact a large number of those would have never ever seen their product otherwise and would have continued to ignore it. And without those people, their secondary products such as their toys and video games will take a shit dive. I'm probably going to buy this new upcoming ninja storm game, but if I don't read naruto anymore, why would I care about the next game?

**Tsuneo** · 2012-02-20 10:21

Mangafox was just using Mangareader scans anyway. As long as Mangareader doesn't follow suit, we should still be getting WSJ every week, but I'm doubtful that Viz won't get to them eventually.

**Man0warr** · 2012-02-20 14:05

It's not illegal to scan/translate the manga, just to distribute it. See RedHawk's latest announcement about Bakuman and Beelzebub.

Stuff will just go back underground to IRC like it was a few years ago. Aggregate reader sites like MangaFox are a relatively new thing, and the scanlators don't like them anyways because they don't give credit.

**Khajit** · 2012-02-20 18:05

Read it on mangareaders when I realized I still hadn't read last week's due to no mangastream. DAMNITT SASUKE do you have to bring down every chapter you're in? Everything else in the chapter was great and Itachi is due to at least partially mitigate Sasuke for a bit. We finally get to see just how overpowered full strength Itachi really is without the tuberculosis getting in the way.

**Tsuneo** · 2012-02-20 18:10

Sasuke obviously got stronger from having EMS, but I don't see how any amount of strength will allow him to kill something that can't die.

**Khajit** · 2012-02-20 18:21

He can still try to seal Itachi up. It probably wont work as Sasuke doesn't strike me as the type to have cared about sealing but Itachi doesn't have the heart to actually kill his little brother either. If the fight is even the best case scenario for itachi would be (due to kishi's Sasuke bias) for Itachi to get sealed, Sasuke leaves of in a big emo fit, and then Itachi breaks out because Itachi is too much of a boss to go down like that.

**Tsuneo** · 2012-02-20 18:24

I don't think Sasuke actually has any sealing techniques. I guess that wouldn't be a bad time for Kishi to give him Kamui.

**DrClout** · 2012-02-20 18:58

Give credit where it's due; sure but remember that demanding credit it was gets you noticed by the wrong people the most. Once groups began watermarking, they became easy pickings for companies to yell/kick/scream "copyright infringement". And Mangafox took down SJ many times before, more notably when OneManga bit the dust some years back.

I asked a friend but I'll ask you all just the same. If Viz Media gets translators to reliably provide weekly manga in the language your most comfortable with, would you purchase it? I'm still on the fence for this because there are only about 2-3 manga that I ready from them. Even now, there are plenty of times where I'd let the manga go for a month or so just to read them in one big helping (sup Bleach).

**Man0warr** · 2012-02-20 19:15

They have an online service but it's 2 weeks behind AND they use the most Americanized translations possible that totally kill it.

They have to be able to provide a reasonable alternative, ala CrunchyRoll (which I gladly pay for). CrunchyRoll even employs translators from sub groups.

I just don't think they ever will be able to unless SJ gives them the scans days ahead of time - someone at Shueisha already leaks the magazines to scanners 4-5 days before they go on sale - even Japanese people read those scans early and Shueisha's magazine sales have been in decline for a decade.

The manga/comic industry really need to get with the times and realize the truth that other press media companies learned years ago. Eventually authors will go straight to online publishing and skip them. They are still making bank off tankobons of the big 3 so I guess that's enough for them.

I know better than to expect Sasuke's lack of any foreshadowed knowledge in sealing techniques to stop Kishi from giving them or a variant to Sasuke as a power up.
