WTF?!! KISHI YOU BASTARD!!! This week was supposed to be the traumatizing, life-altering, wtf training of naruto, and this week he didn't even make so much as a cameo, are you shittin me? Instead, next week we have the defining moment of some dude we don't give a shit about...well, at least this tells us kishi is planning on dragging this manga out for a long time to come...
Bleach does look like its about to get tripped out, they dragged out the intro, but next week they may very well redeem themselves....i wonder what part isshin has to play in this arc. I was curious to learn more about him last round. Also hoping they go into kenpachi's swords name...he was one of the three ichigo saw calling him in his dream...

shikimaru became a chunin from it though. he didnt even win his fight. they said that wasnt what actually mattered was the "character traits" of a chunin being observed, my rant was more about what more could of they asked for from to prove he was at the chunin level, I guess naruto might not have shown the leadership skills they wanted or something lame like that, but all those things i mentioned b4 combined i think should of been enough to get them to overlook that he wasnt perfect in some areas, i mean shikimaru lost but based on his intelligence and strategic brilliance and that he also knew when he was beaten and surrendered they decided to promote him even though he didnt do perfectly.

Actually, your right, just beating Gaara should have been enough, especially considering the high level summoning he used to defeat Gaara. Fuckin haters...†LOL† jealous that the "loser" as a kid showed their adult asses up...

I was thinking bout this the last week or so. i didnt see it right away but i think we very well may actually be in the isshins background flashback arc, i was thinking it would probally go right into flashback mode and not have an intro in the living world where they would eventually get to the trigger for the flashback. Kind of like kakashi gaiden or how the vizards story wasnt shown from being a memory of a single person having a flashback or anything like that.

kick ass, unfortunately it will mean that we still won't know anything about kenpachi's sword, we'll finally get to find out about who his dad really was back then, because at this point all we know is he was one bad sob back in the day, but we never saw him use his zanpankto's power.

naruto actually isnt too bad, the zombies are gonna be crazy hard to kill, it seems i was right that the only way to beat them is to seal the soul or seal the body so it cant move anymore. physical attacks dont work and neither does killing the one who cast the jutsu.

the spoilers are confusing, apparently sai kills his friend who's a zombie somehow. like finishes him off and he's gone. sasori and diedara both are badly wounded but since they are zombies too it doesnt effect them and their bodies reform/regenerate. their must be some kind of translation error on the spoilers i think. It makes no sense to me how sai could of killed for good one of the zombies, even killing the summoner wont remove them but yet somehow sai does it without much effort? seems odd to me.....

†LOL† I don't know why the zombie theme lately, but it occurs to me when naruto started this zombie thing around the same time the zombie thread was started...
that doesn't sound right, unless sai knows something everyone else doesn't, like a technique that frees their spirit maybe?

it looks like an error of sorts, sais brother is controlled by sasori (like chiyo did with sakura) since apparently kankuro has sasori's puppet body now. sai's brother is also filled with diedaras clay as well and is detonated by diedara but kankuro has a puppet swallow sai's brother and stops it from killing everyone. It doesnt actually say sai's brother is dead from what i understand now, just that he's blown to bits. Bleach sounds pretty repetitive and not much happening.

now that i've read it, it makes sense. Apparently they're going with the spirit finding peace and being released, like ghost with something to finish. Seems odd, your telling me NOT ONE of the whole cast of the dead of naruto crossed over then?! Seems a bit of a stretch...oh, have you noticed the anxiety ball looks just like asuma when he's mad but with darker skin and white hair? Also it looks like kankorou will be swaying sasori....i am glad to find out that he got sasori's old body for his puppet collection. i hope thats not all he got from that fight, considering the many puppets sasori used...

As far as bleach goes....wow. ummm...wtf?!
Okay here was my understanding of the bleach universe
soul society = psuedo-heaven equivalent
Hueco Mundo = Hell combined with mexican names and theme music...

All of these people were already supposed to be dead, but now there's supposed to be a hell?!!! Then what the fuck was hueco mundo?!! Not to mention, despite completely abandoning the fact that it looked like they paused us in a dramatic moment, they jump to "hell." Yea, I'm confused. I mean, obviously he's the new villian, as such he has to come in and make it seem like the espada, but my god, its like Tite is suffering from a severe case of add...I'm sure it will be entertaining as hell, but it almost makes me want to ignore it a month so when I come back it won't be disappointing...Although, now that I think about it, last time I did that unintentionally I was wrong, nothing had happened...so...yea...

i had some things come up and been busy so i only just now got around to actually reading the new naruto chap this week and I gotta say in the spoilers i saw it was pretty confusing as to what they meant when describing sai's brother and his exploding and reforming and if he actually died(well, i guess passed on would be a better phrase). So i was suprised as hell to see that what made him pass on was simply seeing sai's final picture of them. Apparently the zombies do have a very large weakness and are not unstoppable no matter what. i'm really surprised that was enough to overcome the spirits being bound to this world. then again though that would only work on some of the zombies now that i think about it most likely, some of them like kakuza and the other more hardcore guys i dont see getting into a situation that would just suddenly turn their thinking around and give them inner peace and let them pass on.
I was thinking the other night what if naruto was related to the sage directly through his bloodline and the rinnengan is a very rare bloodline trait passed down through the uzumaki clan and occasionally being awakened when the conditions become right.

http://www.mangareader.net/93-57473-16/naruto/chapter-510.html
this page has always confused me, see what madara says to nagato's body?
Nagato is a member of the uzumaki lineage is what i get from it, but i dunno maybe im overlooking/misunderstanding something, what do you think it means?

no, as far as I understood it thats right, both nagato/naruto come from the same blood line, although for some reason that didn't occur to me, I guess because of everything he's already been through. That is a possible way kishi could give naruto the rinningan... that would be cool as shit...that'll be a trippy look, naruto in rinnengan/sage mode...wait, I never thought about it, but is "sage mode" have any connection to the sage of the sixth paths?

I noticed something else weird, madara says when he aqquired the first hokages abilities 2 of the 6 paths became one, on that page he says that nagato was the third of the six paths.......I'm gonna have to mull that one over a few days, lol.
I was wondering if natural energy is the 6th elemental chakra. if so i think sage mode will have alot to do with the actual sage of 6th paths. I think naruto is going to end up being the re-incarnation(not like literally) that finally brings peace to the world. I've got this feeling on it i cant shake, lol. also=
something gaara says real early on i noticed when i was re-reading my old manga books is that shukaku is the spirit of a monk sealed in a tea kettle.......that doesnt really sync up with the story of the tailed beasts very well. lol

Yea, I noticed that to. I think the two-tail was originally a living spirit as well (the bijuu, not the jin) I've been wondering how he was going to explain that away, or was kishi just hoping we'd forgotten/didn't notice? †L† I noticed that when they first started the whole explanation of the ten-tail broken up thing, namely 'cause I was always hoping to find out more about the monk, thought that shit was cool as hell....

Yeah, lol, i think kishi just fucked up on that one and is hoping no one calls him on it. Bleach is finally getting into some actual chapters again it seems. I might have missed it somehow but from everything i read from the spoilers people last week we were supposed to get 2 chaps this week, although one of them would of been a one shot thing to promote the new movie/s or something like that.

†LOL† you rock, i would have never known otherwise. Okay, I'm no longer disappointed by bleach, that was redeeming. I'm wondering if his sis is going to go all shinigami this time around. I also want to know what the hell isshin did that made urahara feel so indebted...

actually pretty early on they make it clear that hell and the hollow world are 2 different places btw, i dont know how i forgot about it myself so dont feel bad about it, lol, but when that one evil as hell hollow(the one who was using the boys spirit trapped in a bird i believe) they showed his soul being sucked into hell itself(something like that, its been a long time since i read that part)....actually i decided to go ahead and find it, man, it was a pain in the ass to find it!
wow, the 2 chapters before this scene are pretty good as well, heres the part i was talking about specifically-
http://manga.bleachexile.com/bleach-chapter-12-page-9.html

your right, I had forgotten about that...go figure...they even showed the same two skeleton figures when they revisited it...

if the spoilers are correct its very disappointing, i expected alot from the zombies after they all super hyped them up and made them sound invincible. It also makes me wonder why the first and second hokage stuck around and didnt just say "we are happy to see you defend this village so fiercley sarutobi, you have inheireted our will of fire and became a great hokage, Thank you, we can rest in peace now."
