whee arrived at [livejournal.com profile] littlegothsin and her sister's safely. *flops* tomorrow morning THE MADNESS STARTS. D;

but anyway.

-i hate macs. and laptops. but both together = DDDDD: not sure i got to notice every detail of the chapter, it was incredibly annoying to navigate. woe.

-i'm torn between:

--- *squee, ninjakitties!!* and "where, exactly, were that grandma and her granddaughter who apparently knew the uchihas SOOO well and that sasuke is SOOO comfortable with during the rest of the freaking manga???" i mean okay it was interesting, but it was also so damn random, for a moment i even wondered if this was a fake chapter. Also kitty ears headband WTF D: so THIS is what happens to cosplaying nekogirls if when they grow up... o.o

--- "whee sexycloaks" and "oh look, sasuke is copying his big brother's cloaks now, wonder if he'll add stylised little snakes on it later" maybe the apparent lack of sleeves is his attempt to look original. i like the collars, though. :3

--- "aww sasuke is good at getting prepared now" and laughing my ass off. i mean -- he just took his new team shopping.

Also wtf he looks more sincere kneeling for the old cat lady than he ever did humbling himself in front of -- wait, when does he ever humble himself? >_> huh.


as for the konoha babble at the start of the chapter, *yawn*. they've been stalling on the konoha front for so long just so that team hebi and akatsuki could be brought up to speed too, nngh. i want less "blahblah let us recap analyze for everyone who didn't grasp the subtleties of OUR GREAT MASTER PLAN and more "hay, we're FEELING THINGS" especially on the team 7 front. Naruto and Sakura didn't react so much, and as for kakashi, he feels kinda empty. it's like his feelings on the matter silmply don't exist because he's an adult and therefore not really supposed to be concerned (not sure i'm explaining that properly >>;; )

but yay for team eight. finally! ^o^


I need a team hebi icon. And a sai icon. *hunthunt*




SARO, WRITE. >o

Ninja kitties simply killed me with cute. (foxy-cat yay!)
About Sasuke kneeling... I thought he was paying respects but then the next image showed what he was doing. He wasn't kneeling to the old lady, he was checking the merchandise.. XD
Also... damn, Juugo is big.

I'm just wondering.. if Juugo gets new clothes.. does that mean Sasuke gets a new outfit under the cloak too?

I honestly thought I'd made a wrong turn into fanfic land for a while there. >_< "Known you two since you were very small," my whiskers! So where the heck were you when Itachi wiped out the clan? Or... wait, I'm preaching to the choir again.

Team Seven just has me headdesking at this point. That's a setting just waiting for trouble... either plot-point trouble, or trouble in the sense of "Kishimoto, you did not just do that!"

Seems odd, though. Sasuke is more... um, is affectionate the word I want here? We had him smiling almost fondly at Suigetsu earlier, making an oath to Juugo, and then smiling at the nin-neko and saying, "It's been a while." Plus, courteously saying, "I'm in your debt" to Granny and looking strangely sad at her question about him going after Itachi. Of course, the rest of the time he looks like a mannequin, but...

Oh, and I like Juugo. "We don't have any shirts that will fit!" "Oh, just use the curtain." "All right. *drape*" :-P

...How did you know I wasn't writing? 9.9 Magic!

And also, the most important thing to me this chapter? Damn, Kiba, timeskip liked that boy. I am shallow.

(But, yes, isn't Sasuke original in his matching black cloaks?)

Timeskip did wonderful, wonderful things to Kiba. I always hated that jacket-thing. ()

Neko-kitties = TEH BESTEST. I've always wondered about them. I mean, if they've got ninja dogs, they've GOTTA have ninja kitties. Hehehe ♥
Yeah. Plotholes though. Very WTF. There better be a damn good reason the Ninja Kitties didn't come and help the hollow sexboy in his hour of need. >:C

Icon love...Sasuke looks good with Hello Kitty ^_^

On p18 ch279 v31, there's a really big cat-looking thing next to a Suna nin at the bottem of the picture of all the nin gathered to see Gaara not be dead.
...The only reason I know the specific page is because I'm using it for an rpg, but it seemed more like the dogs that Kiba's clan uses; having them talk makes me think more of the dogs that Kakashi summons..or some type of demon?
ext_2686: (Bond - You noticed)

seconded!

Ohhh Kiba. He was the best part of that chapter, how sad.

pictures of Sasuke's new clothes?

[identity profile] trypton88.livejournal.com 2007-05-19 02:31 pm (UTC)(link)
On the cloaks: erm, they are practically the same style as Naruto's team has, except they're BLACK. and they close in the front. whoo-hoo?

shopping! XD

The granny reminds me of Gaara's Baa-chan. Except weirder. And Sasuke should learn to summon cats now. Because it's cool. But what use would ninja-police have for cats? especially in all their tempermental BSness?

And the 'let's capture Itachi so we can lure Sasuke in'? ah, no. A bunch of teenagers, two adults, against a S-class criminal. Does that seem realitic to you? and Itachi, if at all possible, should be killed on the spot, as is ANBU protocal, and fed to crows. And if the ANBU don't even bother with him anymore, what's a bunch of chuunin going to do about it?

And I thought Takuni were raccoon-dogs, not fox-cats.

nggh. The chapter is weird.

Granny’s cat ears cracked me up.

Although I have to agree it was like a bad trip down fanfiction lane when the ninja kitties popped up.

I have a sneaking suspicion Misashi was high when he thought of this chapter.

Juugo <3

you know, I really thought about that chapter being a fake. I really would have ditched it if I hadn't downloaded it from NarutoFan... O.o

And ow, I added you as a friend, hope you don't mind... Trying to catch up on Teamwork (after having lost the link for quite a loooooooong while)... =D

It shows that Itachi may be evil enough to kill his family, but not KITTIES.
