(naruto) latest manga and anime babble



-Kakashi, you're still as aggravatingly vague as ever. ♥ Just a question, though -- WHY DIDN'T THIS SPESHUL TRAINING EVER COME UP EARLIER. Deus Ex Machina? Surely Kishi would never do that. u.u
-Sai is gay.
-Sai is getting boring.
-SAI IS NOT PART OF TEAM SEVEN ARGH ARGH ARGH. HE'S A GODDAMN PLACEHOLDER, STOP IT WITH THE SASUKE REPLACEMENT CRACKS.
-yay for Team Ten!
-Ino is so shallow. ♥ (or maybe unconsciously a fag hag.)
-Chuunin exam... finished? Ahaha, Naruto, you missed your chance again.
-The Nibi is either a butch woman or an effeminate man. Kishimoto tends to draw his pretty boys prettier than that, so I'm leaning toward woman. XD (ohhh might be interesting if she (?) survives. She (?) looks older, in her twenties or thirties... hmmm.)

Nothing else to say, except that I don't like Sakura's civilian clothes. She looks too generic and not cute and hrrm. I dunno, it's just so bland.

[livejournal.com profile] askerian: ahaha oh god the fillers are getting more ridiculous by the second XD
[livejournal.com profile] sarolynne: What happened?
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: one of the enemies has the ability to create a magnetic field, and as he explains, if he changes the polarities around Naruto's brain it will stop his ability to think
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: since when is that anything new? XD

[livejournal.com profile] askerian: Hinata: *watches from afar as the attacks pile up on poor Naruto*
Naruto: *finally KO, trapped under a pile of rocks*
Hinata: *...oh hey, maybe I should fight too*
[livejournal.com profile] sarolynne: *eyeroll*
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: but first we have a speech from Naruto telling her to run~ and Hinata saying "no im stayin, so there"
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: oh, so beautiful, she's so determined to protect her Naruto-kun~~~~
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: *barfs*

[livejournal.com profile] askerian: at least the art is pretty for once (except when it isn't, in which case it really isn't.)
[livejournal.com profile] sarolynne: That is something, I suppose. Still annoyed in general by the total plot inconsistancy.

[livejournal.com profile] askerian: and yay for sailormoon hinata again.
[livejournal.com profile] sarolynne: *gags*
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: it looks like the spiral/shiva thing (twirling on the spot with windmill arms), but she says it's the rokujyuu honsho (64 hits combo), and yet it acts like a kaiten (protective chakra dome). Wasn't that the one she couldn't do?
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: seriously wtf
[livejournal.com profile] sarolynne: As I recall, she couldn't do either of them. It would be logical to assume she might learn them eventually, but... Meh. Very wtf.
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: then she proceeds to strike the guy with jyuuken attacks in the guts several times. And it doesn't do a damn thing. why weren't his internal organs turned to mush? No explanation yet, apart from "her level is too low."

[livejournal.com profile] askerian: OKAY WHAT THE HELL HINATA DOES NOT SMIRK LIKE A COCKY BASTARD
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: WHAT THE HELL NEJI STOP IMPERSONATING YOUR COUSIN
[livejournal.com profile] sarolynne: ......What the HELL?
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: it's more of a rictus but very much not a Hinata face omg what
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: it's a Neji "oh yeah, you think that's gonna bring me down? i'm gonna kill you, bitch" face
[livejournal.com profile] sarolynne: *is pained by that*

I need a screencap of that face. It's just so. NO.

[livejournal.com profile] askerian: what the hell. the jyuuken doesn't do that.
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: maybe it's badly explained...
[livejournal.com profile] sarolynne: What's it say?
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: she put an interfering electrical current in his body so he couldn't do his magnetic stuff anymore
[livejournal.com profile] sarolynne: The filler writers seem to have very bad ideas about how most things work. Like having people stand inside kaiten, ignoring the fact that it blasts out a crater...
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: yeah
[livejournal.com profile] sarolynne: ....Odd. Jyuuken shouldn't do anything with electricity. That would be ninjutsu, wouldn't it?
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: yeah XP
[livejournal.com profile] sarolynne: Yeah, ow.
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: see, if she had touched his coils to reverse the flow that makes his body convert chakra into electricity, that would work
[livejournal.com profile] sarolynne: They just use chakra...exactly, yes.
[livejournal.com profile] sarolynne: She could mess with all sorts of stuff, but not by making electricity...... Damn it.
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: also, why the hell is this sandy place suddenly turning into a sinkhole
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: just when she gave her "naruto-kun, i saved you *faints*" speech
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: betcha naruto magically appears to save her
[livejournal.com profile] sarolynne: Painful.
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: oh and unless he magically survives... she just killed someone by smothering him in iron sand. Good going, Hinata. :D
[livejournal.com profile] sarolynne: *snerks!*
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: betcha she won't have her moment of emo about it, though. because no one dies in the fillers
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: wait, someone did die in this filler *hopes*
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: hee! neat!! she wasn't saved by a naruto miraculously free from his boulder thing
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: ... I take it back
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: I thought since she was drifting toward the hole so fast and Naruto was being rescued by Chouji at the same time, that someone else would find hinata
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: but apparently they're going to bend space and time to arrive on time
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: despite the fact that Naruto doesn't know where Hinata went and she ran for a few minutes
[livejournal.com profile] sarolynne: Fillers hurt my soul.
[livejournal.com profile] sarolynne: Why couldn't filler just... not try to have deep plots. Seriously.
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: of course he saves her at the last possible second
[livejournal.com profile] sarolynne: -_-
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: then she's all "everyone came to save me" and naruto is all "of course :D :D :D I rock like that"
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: he goes "wow, against someone i couldn't beat at all"
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: then of course she goes "zomg i was praised by naruto"
[livejournal.com profile] askerian: and also of course, they only talk to and look at each other despite her being half-fainted on Chouji's lap and the other man standing just beside them
[livejournal.com profile] sarolynne: ...
[livejournal.com profile] sarolynne: Hinata/Chouji. Ow, brain.

[livejournal.com profile] askerian: oh damn it, that chick had a semi-original background (Daughter of a Daimyo, kidnapped when she was younger, held hostage for a long while, thinks her parents betrayed her since they allowed it to happen and last so long, and thus has massive trust issues. She doesn't care who she has to dispose of to survive, so long as she survives.) and they have to twist it into something Naruto can relate to and yet trump tenfold. She tells Naruto that it's a good attitude for her to have, because so long as she survives, her country survives and once the enemy is defeated and she can rebuild her country, people will come back. Naruto, logically, tells her that they probably won't because who would want to live with a daimyo who thinks like that? He sure wouldn't.

Then she goes into "you don't know how horrible my life was when i was kidnapped" (i was hoping for rape ahaha fat chance, or at least psychological torture...) instead she does "everyone watched me all the time" "everyone hated me" ...

Betcha Naruto will go the "yeah, me too, so what" route. AGAIN.

Anyway. I think I'm broken, because I sort of somewhat enjoyed parts of this filler. Some of the bad guy attacks were inventive and/or amusing, and I like how bitchy the princess is (but Naruto's jesus powers won't allow that to last long, alas). Also, one of the nice ninjas dies! Mrrr. And Chouji gets to fight. And for once they didn't push the NaruHina too much... yet. Or maybe I just have my goggles on. u.u

No, I think I'm just broken.



You can grab the pics if you want them, no need to warn me or anything, but plz no direct linking. ^^

You know, I'm not terribly offended by this filler arc, even if Naruto is more useless than he's ever been, so far. >.> *smacks the writers* At least it's something new, right?

But you can't deny the unrequited Chouji/Hinata! Sweet Chouji. And he looks AWESOME in the time skip! *_* Nice hair, Chouji. *purrs*

And, was it just me, or did you see TONS of crack icon potential in 312?

[identity profile] sahara-storm.livejournal.com 2006-06-22 04:32 pm (UTC)(link)
...

*cries*

The smirking Hinata did me in.

To me, the filler is only good for the occassional halfway-passable sreencaps of my girl, Tenten. And maybe boredom relief?

When are these things going to end, again? It's physically paining me now.

Sorry for being nosey.

The only reason I watch the fillers is for the same thing you do x] I don't know how my brother likes them so much.

Naruto, logically, tells her that they probably won't because who would want to live with a daimyo who thinks like that? He sure wouldn't.

That's part of Hinata's background... she got kidnapped by that Cloud guy, he failed and they were going to demand her father's body, but Neji's dad said he'd die to protect his brother and neice. How come no one addresses this? Naruto and Sasuke are not the only people who have sucky backgrounds.

Incidently, it is very hard to type with my boyfriend chewing on me. o.O

[identity profile] the--ivorytower.livejournal.com 2006-06-24 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
In which case, why compare to Naruto? His background is *nothing* like hers, and yet they compare it, and he has suffered more than her, apparently.

I personally thought Naruto had an excellent reaction, that he wouldn't want to live in a country that the princess was in charge of. I thought her attitude was terrible, I've seen villains with more compassion than she had. I'm sure she'll be alright by next episode, but still.

-curls up in horror- Smirking Hinata...? ........! -dies-

Aw, dammit, all my Naruto sites suck! I was wary of spoilers when I saw your cut, so I checked all my sites and didn't see any new chapters, so I clicked the cut and it was all:

NIBI, wate whut?!

And so I re-checked and still could only find the RAW. I want a translation! ...though it is kinda predictable, that one page, even if I can't read Japanese. Sai almost called Chouji fat, huh?

I always wanted to see the Nibi. I always liked that demon in the folklore. =D And I always hoped with my very soul it wouldn't be a man carrying it. Because I'm a stupid American chikka, and seeing males with cat-like qualities is the BAD kind of gay (licking himself clean wtf XD ). So yes, I agree with you. It looks like a butchy girl to me.

(Yays Akatsuki bitches! All the more to make fun of! >D )

[identity profile] inane-romance.livejournal.com 2006-06-24 12:52 pm (UTC)(link)
...! Sasuke is the exception. XD Do eet. Do eet. -is suddenly reminded of that one picture, with Itachi and Nekosuke- ...YOU WRITE THAT AND I WILL LOVE YOU FOREVERZZZZ~! <3

(The Akatsuki is most known for their weekly gay orgys and beastiality fetishes.)

[identity profile] complexphoenix.livejournal.com 2006-06-28 01:17 am (UTC)(link)
NOES keep the nekosuke stuff zomg I love that stuff and cherish it and pet it and reread it last week!

I think its a fact that all filler arcs must suck as much ass as possible. Seriously. God, I can't help but think of some of the Yuugiou filler arcs. *wince* Yuugi and Anzu tend to do the friendship-speech-that-turns-enemies-into-friends thing. Thank God it doesn't work on Kaiba, that'd be scary... ^^;;; Then there was the time where the enemy when "My monster has infinity attack points! Bwahahaha!" and then Yuugi went "Oh yeah, well *my* monster has infinity attack points PLUS ONE!" ...I'm seriously, they did that. *face-palm* Argh... that was incredibly painful...

[identity profile] yuenoclow.livejournal.com 2006-06-23 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
Er, I meant to put "serious" not "seriously"... -.-;; Can you tell I just woke up?

[identity profile] rayemars.livejournal.com 2006-06-23 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
*snerk* But the YGO fillers also created characters like Noah, the real son of Gozaburo who was supposed to take over Kaiba's body! And whatever that mess with Varon and the people in cloaks was--I just went "Mai on a motorcycle!" and tried to ignore the rest of it. Motorcycles can generate a lot of forgiveness.

[identity profile] yuenoclow.livejournal.com 2006-06-23 03:22 am (UTC)(link)
*Snerk* Oh God, the Noa Arc... where we had the scary penguin bad-guy with a thing for little girls. Ewww. That was creepy, an old guy wanting Anzu's "cute young body".

And don't get me started on the stuff with Varon. *That* was the arc with the "Infinity plus ONE" monster. Not to mention Yuugi's spirit getting stolen away, thus causing Yami to scream "AIBOU!!!" for ten minutes. -.-;;;;

[identity profile] rayemars.livejournal.com 2006-06-23 03:51 am (UTC)(link)
I always loved the Noah arc because I watched the dub, and the guy that fought Kaiba had this damn hot cajun accent. I'm really easily swayed by small bits of fanservice. *grin*

Oh, right, I remember hearing about that part now! That's the arc where I finally stopped watching the show due to conflicts or something, and then got eaten by Naruto. I missed Yugi and Jounouchi's souls getting stolen, but I heard some of the horror stories.

(Plus, it brought back Rebecca. I hated that girl like I've never hated a character before. >P)

[identity profile] yuenoclow.livejournal.com 2006-06-23 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
Heh, I stopped watching the dub around when they got into the Battle City arc. That was mainly due to "Merrick's" voice giving me fits. *shudders* God, poor Malik...

(Yes, Rebecca is annoying as hell. Ugh, I sooo wanted her to get eaten by a Monster or something. Of course, she'd end up giving the thing indigestion, but still...)

[identity profile] rayemars.livejournal.com 2006-06-23 05:12 am (UTC)(link)
sdjhkjs God. Yes. I never could choose whether what they did to his voice or his background was worse. (Though I lean towards the background, since I <3 Isis and Rishid so much.) Getting through that arc was like a test of wills.

[identity profile] rianax.livejournal.com 2006-06-24 05:07 pm (UTC)(link)
The filler arc.... *shudders*

I keep telling myself that even with the awfulness, the more screen time Hinata has the better the chance of getting a decent AMV about her is-- *goes back to watching her Itachi/Neji, Haku/Gaara AMV crack*

Itachi/Neji pretty keen

Then there are the awesome ones like Whisper of the Beast, (AU w/ Haku, Sasuke, and Naruto) and Zetsumo SasuSaku/NaruHina, betrayal and death.

Thank you! :)

OMG, Whisper of the Beast. *SQUEE!* *is such a Haku fangirl*
