Latest naruto chapt. + Art Dump + putain de chanson DX


Haven't read a translation, just the raw... Not a lot to say this week except from:

-Squee jinchuuriki! Though apparently the three tails had a jinchuuriki, after all, and then it got free? its host died? So then the "the beast dies with the holder" is wrong. ... Wait was it in the manga or did I get that from a fanfic. XD;

... Are the two pretty jinchuuriki men or women? At first sight the one with a lot of midriff looked like a girl... but there are no boobs, and knowing Kishi's suckitude with women bodies and -- well. Sai's clothes... I'm tempted to say woman but I might be wrong. XDD;; The one with the scar on his -- her? -- face = prrt. Looks like a boy to me but ONCE AGAIN...! And the one in the kimono. *_* And old man four-tails! ♥♥♥♥♥ Sohappy. Even Naruto is ridiculously hot on that pic.

-Squee! Red mascara and gold irises for frog sannin mode. Prrrrrrt. *__*

-Bwahahahahaha KakaIru finally got its first second canon hint. What were you doing there to arrive just in time, Kakashi-sensei, hmm? >D (shh, don't use logic at me right now, stalker-kakashi is funny. Bad-fanfic-funny.)

-Yayy Ino and Hinata and their teams! I srsly hope they get to fight a bit. Otherwise I'll be cross. >:/ Oh Ino, usopritty. I hope your dad didn't reappear in the manga just to get killed off and give you angst. Hinata... Try to kick at least some background filler ass. Please? Ino is a spy type, but YOU are a fighting type. So... Kishi, don't make me bite you. >E

-FatPain = creepy. DX

------------end spoilers------------






There's a Team Gai and Team Hebi coming. XD










Hyuuga Hanabi, little sister of Hinata in the manga, and Yamanaka Inoru, a cousin of Ino's in Teamwork 3. (They do have a third teammate but he's so far totally irrelevant and neither she nor Inoru notice him very much. XD ...)

Inoru is 13 and he knows nothing of the Yamanaka family jutsu. His mother is Ino's dad's sister, and she married to a civilian who wanted her to cut ties with the ninjas. Eventually she divorced and came back with her son, but she's too embarrassed to admit she was wrong to her big brother. As a result Inoru only knows the kind of ninjutsu and genjutsu he learned at the academy.

He's an optimistic and friendly guy, and knows no fear. Also, he absolutely does not understand why on earth he should respect Hanabi more just because she's a Hyuuga, or even because she can kill him with a single poke. XD Hanabi finds him infuriating, but she kind of appreciates that there's someone out here who doesn't go "ooh a Hyuuga genius." (... only when he's not around, though -- being near by makes her forget he's got any good points at all. XD)



And a last GW pic for the road. u.u






Ptain je vous raconte pas quand je me mets à la chantonner sans même m'en rendre compte.
Maman d'Asuka: C'est quoi cette chanson? ^-^
Asuka: ... MERDErien du tout maman chérie. >_>;;;;
Ca fait quatre jouuuuuurs j'en ai maaaaaarre.

Auuuugh earworm.

Apology for the ridiculously long comment - a fan

Yes, the jinchuuriki picture made me so happy!! Now we know who they were; they look like fascinating characters. And shit, almost all of them are dead now O_O T-T About the sanbi, I guessed that he had just gone to full-beast mode (like Gaara, Nibi, and Killerbee could) before getting knocked out, and Deidara and Tobi were just dragging him back that way. Maybe? Or maybe the "beast-dying-with-host" thing is fannon (dammit).
KakaIru ^_^ That was nice. And good that Iruka didn't get stabbed so soon after reestablishing his friendship with Naruto (and helping him with Jiraiya. God, could you imagine how Naruto would react if he died too??). I also noticed that Iruka doesn't use an honorific for Kakashi. I hope that wasn't just lost in translation ^^
And oh yay, we actually see another of Kakashi's "thousand techniques" he's so famous for (How many is this now, 10?). But he's still having a hard time in the fight. This war is kinda scaring me. I'm glad we're gonna see some good action (this is Naruto, elaborate fights are mandatory) but I'm also really worried about the characters we know and love. (Yeah, ditto about Ino's Dad, he'd better not have been brought back just to bite it! Screentime does not require death!) What worries me most, though, is Tsunade's decision to bring Naruto back. Yeah, he's a ridiculously strong asset, but he's also the target. Then again, he will not be forgiving if he finds out that his people died while he was kept safe in hiding. So... this'll be an interesting arc.
Wow, big comment ^^; On to the art!
I don't know Gundam, forgive me. But Sexy-no-jutsu Gaara is at once terrifying and ridiculously hot (Kankuro-chan... kawaii). Looking forward to the others. The vixens are pretty, especially Ino and Hinata (love how you reflected their personalities.). ...Is that Naru and s-n-j Sasuke? Lovely scene, I really like that angle, where you can't quite see it, but don't need to ^_^ Yay, SakuNaru, Sasuke.... God, I really gotta keep up with Teamwork ^^; I will, I swear! In the meantime, Hanabi looks awesome, and I now really wanna meet Inoru-kun. I love your stories.
And thank you for your patience ^_^ Keep it up, ne!

KakaIru- sorry hon, just double-checked at a convini, the honorific WAS lost in translation (he called him "Kakashi-san"). However, there is still the "why is Kakashi tailing Iruka" plot point to act as fodder for KakaIru fans' imaginations...

Dammit!! 1)you translators! Why must you drop the honorifics? Your audience is not that stupid, and anyone who's reading a bloody online scanlation of Naruto as soon as it comes out has some idea of what -san means by now!!! If they don't, teach them! Ahem. 2) Ok, so that name intimacy isn't actually there. Boo hoo. But praise for stalker!Kakashi.
Thanks for checking!

^_^ Have fun "referencing."
It would still have been good if Iruka at least got hurt. Because ... that would have given Naruto something to go OMG DDD: over without being another death. That's a good point, actually, didn't think of it that way. Hmm. Then again, the way it's going, people will get hurt and chances are they're gonna be people Naruto cares about, so maybe no big loss (as long as Kishi doesn't call up the shinigami for anyone...)?
Yeah, Kakashi the stingy copy ninja. Oh how we love him. Tsk, Kishi, tsk. Maybe you should ask fans for suggestions...? >;)
Yeah, what is Kishi's track record for justifying dumbass decisions and plot points again? Need to think of examples...
*looks again at the pretty pretty glossy violet hair, smacks forehead* I'm sorry, I'd just assumed it was NaruSasu again... NaruHina is adorable! Draw more of them? (and him again, yes, good idea!)
Ah, that makes sense. Looking forward to it ^_^
Oh god, another long comment! Glad you don't mind them ^^; Tah!

Hi - Sorry to but in like this, but cause the question was floating around (and its probably already been answered) I just felt like pointing something out. Hasn't shukaku had a lot of hosts? and didn't they all die?

=3

Hey there ^_^ From canon, yeah, Shukaku had something like 3 hosts including Gaara, and they did all die. But given the context of Chiyo's explantion, my impression was that they were deaths by extraction. When the hosts became old and 'outlived their usefulness' for lack of better phrase, the Suna-nin did a massively chakra-intensive procedure to extract the Beast back into that pot Gaara mentioned, and then I guess, chuck the host's body. Cruel, but makes sense.
I could be forgetting one vital little detail or another, but I think that's how it went. Maybe I should look it up...
