naruto manga chapter 319

[askerian]

The Asuma/Kurenai moment is nice, but I wish they'd cut down on the "Asuma looks melancholy/pondering/deep in thought" moments in the latest chapters, because I have a bad feeling he's going to kick the bucket. ;_; Ooh, Kurenai likes plants!

The training is still boring, as it offers no character interaction of any real significance. Is there an end to Yamato's incredibly convenient powers? probably not. Alright, alright, he's a Hokage clone, he might have a right to. Still, he's a bit too smooth and empty to be that kickass. Where are the character flaws and pluses to counteract the huge-ass, hyper-versatile powers? Hell, where's the character?

Still, here's a new boyfriend for Kakashi. Here he was, so incredibly badass, hot, angsty and mysterious and he only ever got paired off with Iruka and Gai.

... SAKURA. CRYING IN THE DARK. NO DON'T EMO SAKURA. HE MISSES YOU TOO. NARUTO WILL FIX IT REALLY. ;;_____;;

... And ohh Naruto thinks of Sasuke before going to sleep.

I just -- ohh. The fact that they both can't sleep because they're thinking about Sasuke -- and the mirror situation! Naruto is so optimistic and strong (or just that obsessed) and his doubt has disappeared -- whereas Sakura's is getting stronger. No, don't give up Sakura, trust Naruto, he'll bring Sasuke back, really, and then you can have threesome sex all night long. ;_; (or hell, I'd even settle for canon SasuSaku, because Naruto is never ever not going to be a part of you two.)

You know the sad part? I can't bring myself to see any of the pairings as anything else than a set up for the threesome. Well, except when Sakura's off with Lee, on the grounds that he's marginally less disturbed than the two others.

And I have a bad feeling about the training ever since we've heard of elemental chakra.

Well at least we get to see Sakura again. *is pessimistic*

[askerian]

Ahahaha, me too. Even if we end up with SasuSaku, I'll always be unable to see Hinata as a serious threat to Naruto's bond to them, and I'll always be unable to stop imagining that he's still best friend to both and -- and he just fits with them, no matter what's written on paper, so why would he care that they're marrying each other and not him. Without him, sasusaku just wouldn't exist, because Sakura wasn't enough to save Sasuke, and because Sasuke has always had a stronger bond with Naruto than with Sakura.

*preaches to the choir*

er, Askerian, sorry to flood your post with off-topic comments, but I have a question (two actually ^^") and I couldn't find you e-mail, so... ^^;

First, I got to write a little fic (2000 words), bestiality/yaoi/sasuke/snake, whatever, and I would like to know if you could check/beta it a little, please ?

Also, I changed my layout recently, and got the same as you actually. But I have a problem with the presentation : 'Tags : blabla' which is in the entries don't want to put himself like current mood/location/music, in bold. Your is, so I guess I didn't go to the good place to change it. Do you remember how you change it ? ^^

[askerian]

Oh, hon, I don't trust my english enough to be any kind of beta. I think we'd do the same mistakes and I wouldn't see anything wrong with french-like stuff in your story. ~___~ I hope someone else decides to give you a hand, though. Oi, people, anyone willing?

As for the layout, I got lucky, a very nice person agreed to make me a stylesheet; i just had to upload it. It needs to be like a huge complicated coding stuff, though, it's not just a setting we can change in the normal LJ settings. Frankly I would never have messed with it on my own. I'm gonna ask that person if she minds doing it a second time, but I'm not even sure she's online regularly these days. ^^;; Sorry I can't help you.

Where'd you find 319?

[askerian]

http://mangahelpers.com/ ^__^ They're really fast about it. It's already got several medium quality scanlations.

[crazy-toffee.livejournal.com]

No, don't give up Sakura, trust Naruto, he'll bring Sasuke back, really,

Nooo! Don't wait for Naruto to bring him back! Go and bitch-slap him back to Konoha on your own! XD See how they'll both swoon over you THEN! *snort*

[askerian]

Bah, she would need to have an epiphany, andTHAT too would come by way of Naruto. Laws of Shonen state that she can't do it if she can't trust in herself, and as the crying fit proved, she doesn't.

But man, do I wish. T_T

(or hell, I'd even settle for canon SasuSaku, because Naruto is never ever not going to be a part of you two.)

That sentence made me sad, partly because I don't like the pairing and partly because Sasuke, in my point of view, doesn't deserve Sakura's undying love. Then again, I only like the angst that Sasuke causes to those around him, rather than him as a character, so I'm biased.:(


I think I'm the only one who thinks Naruto's gonna die to get Sasuke back. T^T

[askerian]

Naruto would only come back to life. He's the freakin title character. XD Now, it's kind of possible that Sasuke dies to redeem himself, or just afterwards. Yay for more angst.

[shadhahvar.livejournal.com]

Emo? I'm beginning to wonder why people use that word XD ...It was a good show of emotion on Sakura's part, I find. There was no bawling, no weeping, and aside from that one tear, she probably didn't break down enough, in my opinion. There's a reason why it has to be in private. And her confidence is shaken, but it's a mix, likely, of the old frustrations and new ones - she can't, as Naruto can, reinvent herself and her powers in a matter of thousands of clones.

Bah. If in the end everyone isn't doing me we know the series has gone seriously wrong. *ironic "OMG" pose* ;D

Oooh, Yamato I liked better earlier - now he's the too convenient plot device to help the other plot device called Kakashi show how much he adores Naruto now and how strong the bearer of the burdensome beast can be.

By.

Parting waterfalls.

...Not that I say this isn't a neat trick. It's just sad how he gets to God Mod on his own world; though I suppose he is no better or worse than Orochimaru. Still, if his ass is not handed to him by the Akatsuki, I'm going to question the morals of other villages with similar burden-bearers. *already does that*

*is totally random*

♥

[askerian]

Aw, I was just teasing poor Sakura. It's a very justified and not annoying at all show of emotions, so that's fine. :p

... DDD: NO WAY THEY'RE MINE.

Yeah, Yamato at least hinted at being a person; at the moment he and kakashi are just... boring. Also there's no meaningful interaction between Kakashi and Naruto and that really disappoints me.

*loves your random*

... And ohh Naruto thinks of Sasuke before going to sleep.

Oh, he does, huh? >_>

Happy Birthday Asuka!!! -glomps her-

[askerian]

Thank you, dear ^^

[reiichi.livejournal.com]

Happy birthday !

[spiralingvortex.livejournal.com]

Saw your info so: HAPPY BIRTHDAY ASKUA!!!

[spiralingvortex.livejournal.com]

I thought we were the same age too.

[bootoye.livejournal.com]

I agree.

Naruto loves to take his top off, eh? ^__^

[bootoye.livejournal.com]

I just realised that today was your b-day.

Happy birthday! ^__^ Sorry about the double post! 0o__o0

[soc_puppet]

Still, here's a new boyfriend for Kakashi.

Oh thank God I was not the only one who thought this. Not that I've actually read the new chapter yet, but the whole "Don't call me sensei" thing had me going.

[nobody-famous.livejournal.com]

THREESOME!!!!!!! *cheers*

I don't know about that SasuSaku thing. I feel like the lastest chapters (well, the earlier later chapters... does that make sense?) have been leaning towards the NaruSaku pairing. It would be so incredibly awesome if they actually turned the NaruSakuSasu threesome into a cannon pairing *dreams about the number of threesomes that would sprout from this* *drools*

[askerian]

Hm, actually I don't think NaruSaku will happen, because while they ARE getting closer, it's based on their mutual desire to have Sasuke back; and Sakura's desire to have Sasuke back is based on her romantic feelings for him. Also, it's almost the same reason that (i forget who) pointed out as to why Hermione and Harry didn't get together. Right now we have Naruto the hero, and just behind him in order of importance, Sasuke and Sakura. If Naruto and Sakura become an item, she climbs to his level of importance and Sasuke is left out of the loop; he also loses his link with Sakura and only retains his link to Naruto. That's a "storytelling craft" reason, not a "characters being IC" reason (though alright, it's more valid in the HP fandom.) ... did i make any sense?

but yeeah. narusasusaku forevar.

You're birthday is today?!?1 (08-18)

Mine was yesterday!! (08-17)


Wow.. that's like a day a part...like omg!
:P

[bakkhos.livejournal.com]

Um, I didn't see an e-mail address for you, so I guess I'll ask here. You have the most awesome Naruto icons, and I was wondering if I could snag a few (you said to ask & credit so ...) I'd really like the Saki-chan one (I think I read a NaruSasu fic about that once), the Woe one, Sasuke drunk (because we all know he is a closet lush), and the AssBow one (really, can you get any funnier than the AssBow?)

Could I friend you? I found your journal god knows how searching for fanfic. I pretty much agree with everything you said about 319 too ... I posted a journal entry just like it a few hours ago. You can friend back if you want, or not ... I don't post very often, but I comment like whoa.

[askerian]

Hee! ^__^ okay, you can use them, just credit me in the comments section of the icon page ^^

My LJ is free for ze friending, since it's mostly a fandom/fanfic/fanart thing anyway, so go for it. ^_^ *does the dance of yay!friended*

*downloads your AMV like ninja*

[elict.livejournal.com]

ehm... not that this has anything to do with your post... but... ehm... happy belated birthday!

it's not that good, i know... sorry! *blush*

[zaccheo.livejournal.com]

uhh, hi, prowling arooond just got attracted to your journ, LOL *awkward laugh

Still, here's a new boyfriend for Kakashi. Here he was, so incredibly badass, hot, angsty and mysterious and he only ever got paired off with Iruka and Gai.

what's wrong with gai? thick brows senior is an elite jounin himself. he offsets kakashi's character so they're really nice.
but kill me now if i don't get any wieorwejtjlkj over yamato and kakashi, LOL

hmmm maybe its just some letting out some heavy emotion female thing? i dunno. naruto will fix it all up to her. hehe. nah, i think that naruto will fit fine on them at the end and who knows sakura might end up with... *cough (just trust naruto, ne sakura and naruto will not be left out, sasuke thinks of him XD)

but of course, our wishful thinking ends there because kishimoto-sensei absolutely won't go with a threesome *sighs

[askerian]

*snerk* nothing's wrong with Gai, I was mainly concerned with the lack of choice. Naruto and Sasuke are routinely paired off with bazilion of other guys, and poor Kakashi only has two people as his main squeezes. (true, there's Asuma, and Genma and Isumo and Kotetsu and all that, but apart from Asuma we don't see Kakashi interacting with them much, so they're more cracky pairings than anything else.) Kakashi deserves to have more yaoi choice! XD
