Naruto 445

http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/445/01/



Page 1:
I ... like the cover. I think? I like Yahiko and Konan at least. Nagato has the most retarded haircut ever in the history of ever. Also the proportions seem off, like Yahiko is bigger or closer to the camera despite being behind Nagato.
Though on this picture Konan looks like a black-haired Suigetsu. Oh Kishi, I love your charadesigns. 9__9

Page 2:
... do you really need six panels to wake up? Being unable to see his eyes really makes the scene lame instead of emotional.

Page 3:
(it says a lot about my interest when I pause in the middle to go and read Bleach. DX )
Blahblah my mom and dad blah pain blah all konoha's fault pain blah i'm the only one it ever happened to pain pain pain.
Naruto looks pretty hot when he's making that :( face though.

Page 4:
Someone's got to explain to me how he managed to dig two holes in the rain without getting swallowed by the mud. Also why he didn't bury them in the same grave, especially since he added stuff on top -- usually when you dig a hole, even if you put back all the earth you dug up there will be a slight depression in the ground. I don't think his parents were THAT fat. >__>

Page 5:
blahblah pity me blah.
Not seeing his face really makes me utterly unable to sympathize with him. That was a charadesign mistake, Kishi.

Page 6:
Is that a dog or a fox?
... Oh hell I can see it coming from there.

Page 7:
... OH GOD MYSTERIOUS BREADY HAND PLEASE BE YAHIKO I'M SICK AND TIRED OF THAT WHINY BASTARD.
(you know the dog followed him just so he could eat his corpse. >_>)

Page 8:
Oh, Konan! Okay that's also good. man she looks so sweet under her umbrella. Nice pic there. ^^
(and, I can add snake ♥ slug to my list. XD~ )

Page 9:
Munching Nagato = stupid-looking. Okay, okay, their country has weird stone tables all over the place. man, I want to know how THOSE happened.

Page 10:
Yahikoooo. Yeah, what for indeed. Oh, their little hideout is so well organized. I wonder who does all the cleaning. >D

Page 11:
"That was when I met..." *EYEROLLING SO HARD*
... BWAHAHAHA THIEF YAHIKO. Okay, I'm starting to like him. *_*
And, another Frog=Hope dynamic.

Page 12:
Oh Yahiko. Yay for benevolent dictatorships? XD

Page 13:
*SPLODIES* Omg ninja action in a ninja manga. :O LE GASP.

Page 14:
omaigad dey killd ma dog. Bawww.
Stupid kids wandered into a war zone -- go back, go back! D:

Page 15:
Yahiko: *smart and observant!*
Other two: bawww dog ;__; what should we doooooo
yahiko: ... eat it. (man i wish)
ahh don't yell someone will hear you. DX but, prrrrt about them witnessing that sannin scene. ♥

Page 16:
The fighting had reached its peak, and I... bawwwed like a mopey suicidal idiot.
Am I supposed to feel sympathy? >__>

Page 17:
"I will become the god of the world." ... That's so random a jump to make. Also they didn't witness anyone else get killed, just a face-off between ninjas they had no reason to care about, so... what? Talk about added motivation and upping the stakes and whatever.


Anyway. Overall impression = i like Yahiko and he's definitely the one who kicks their asses into actually doing shit. But even the development of his dream and mindset feels rushed. What was the catalyst, seriously, the death of the dog? He didn't even care that much. As for Nagato, BAWW some more, bitch. I'm not convinced.

LOLOL I HAVEN'T READ THE CHAPTER YET BUT NOW I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO IT 8D I want to see Yahiko too :3

Oh Kishimoto... Please to be more convincing and original @_@ DON'T MAKE MY FAITH IN YOU WAVER D8

"I will become God of a new crime-free world. Join me, Ryuk."

Crossover syndrome much?? >.<

Naruto: BUT WHY ARE YOU KILLING ALL THESE PEOPLE?????!!!!

Nagato: People I wuved died. ;_;

Naruto/Sasuke/Gaara/Itachi/Tsunade/Kakashi/Haku/Shikamaru/Neji: -_-

When his dog kicked the bucket I'm almost sorry to say I almost laughed. I thought that "my dog died" is the kind of reason somone gave when they're actually joking...

I felt like at any second he was gonna turn round and say "Nah, only joking! THIS is what really happend..."

[identity profile] sohaliatalitha.livejournal.com 2009-04-24 02:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Just thought I'd add that there needs to be icon caption of this:

Naruto: So. You founded an evil organisation, planned to build a WoMD, killed your teacher, killed MY teacher and destroyed my village. Why?

Nagato: Ninjas killed my dog. ;__;

I just el oh el'd through this whole chapter. My friend was busy and asked me for a recap and I was like, "The entire chapter is a flashback in which anorexic-boy moans FML, FML, FML..."

Y'know, I'm not as bothered by Nagato's lameness and Yahiko's god-complex as I am by the idea that... Nagato is relating this for Naruto. Reading the chapter as though all of this is being narrated by Nagato (even the parts without descriptive caption), I find myself going, "..." I mean. What bad guy tells his story in a BAWWWWW WOE IS MEEEEEEEE EEEEEEE EEEEEEE EEEEEEEEEE kind of light? And gets all dramatic? With a kyuubitoad!Naruto six feet away?

Aagh I'd be less bothered if this was an actual flashback or someone with a SOUL was telling this story. At this point I'm going ":| :| :| Stop being Stephenie Meyer on me, Kishi, and remember that you are allowed to not write like a tool."

(On a totally separate note SQUEE SANNIN PRETTIES <3)

This chapter may have evoked more sympathy if we didn't ALREADY KNOW EVERYTHING IN IT. The only new info we got was the dog. Lame.

But yay for young sannin! Aw, they were so cute as a team. Er...a team of elite assassins.

Oh, hey Kishi? I was just wondering if maybe, we could, like possibly, I don't know: LEARN HOW YAHIKO DIED. Kthnx.

You know, my entire impression of this chapter, even WITH the Preview, that his second Greatest Pain (Or First, maybe the idiot doesn't count his parents) was the Dog dying. WTF kinda motivation is THAT? Nagato is SO Whiny. And Naruto in one of the shots, was so giving him the "WTF does this have to do with anything?" look.

I do admit Yahiko gave me warm fuzzies of the cool, because he seems so active. Seems he managed to pass on the idea but not the spit of the thing to his little friend.

Also, Tsunanda looked AWESOME in that shot...Did he draw her diffrently or something, because she just looked like she was ready to take some names and kick some ass.

Kohan is the cool. But I can't see why they kept that whiny little brat around. They had a good thing going for themselves, organized, taking good care of themselves. and along comes too more mouths to feed. -.-

....Oh I wish practical Yahiko had told them to eat the dog....that would have been made of Lolz and cool.

Sympathy for Pein? The level hasn't moved a bit, Kishi.....Bad Bad-guy motivation is bad.

Yahiko: I wanna be a god. So I'll be a god of Vengenance, Hate, and Blood. And World Peace!
Konan: Peace?
Yahiko: Hell yeah! In fact, mostly peace. And blood. Blood is cool. Blood and Peace! Blood and Peace!
Konan: That's really annoying...
Yahiko: I know! It'll totally get stuck in your head.
Konan: I think a god of Not-Starving-to-Death would be more useful.
Yahiko: Oh, that's also a good one!
nagato: Umm...I wanna be a god too!
Yahiko: Don't just copy me!
Nagato: Please?
Yahiko: Fine, but don't take any of the stuff I called.
Nagato: But you took all the good ones!
Yahiko: Just do what your good at!
Nagato: But I'm not good at anything!
Yahiko: Sure you are. You can be the God of Crying, Whining like a Bitch, and being Emo!
Nagato: Uhh...could I also be the god of wheelchairs?
Yahiko: Sure, why not.
Konan: Okay, whatever. Your both gods. So, what are we going to do tonight.
Yahiko: The same thing we do every night, Kony. Try to take over the world!
Konan: God damnit....
Yahiko: No, I don't think I'll be doing that...

Best ending to this who recollection thing would be Naruto going either
A) "You know you're an idiot, right?"
OR
B) "Wow, you're even more emo than Sasuke!" *IS SHOT*
OR
C) "Oh, so you're responsible for the Akatsuki-painting-the-nails rule."

"(you know the dog followed him just so he could eat his corpse. >_>)"

WIN.

"I don't think his parents were THAT fat."

It looked a lot like the hole dug in the movie/book "Holes"; five feet around in circum. and five feet deep.

"Stupid kids wandered into a war zone -- go back, go back!"

I do have to wonder though...It kinda looked like Yahiko was complaining about how close to the city and citizen-y people the fighting was taking place. So maybe him whining here isn't so terrible...

Alas, poor Tiny, I knew him well

I WILL RULE THE WORLD BECAUSE YER DOG DIED. I mean, srsly?

[identity profile] sarolynne.livejournal.com 2009-04-24 07:04 pm (UTC)(link)
I think we haven't actually gotten to the second part of Pain's Pain, yet. The dog dying is sad, but I'm pretty sure it's got to be just a set piece, since all this stuff is taking place before Pain's time with Jiraiya.

*petpets* You're so cute when you're biased. XD

'ello, my name is Nagato...You keel my puppy, prepare to die.

*coughs and ahems*

This.

forgive my disjointedness...

[identity profile] nemi-chan.livejournal.com 2009-04-25 08:18 am (UTC)(link)
I got pissed ta Yahiko's I will be god thing because it came out of left field and I can EASILY think of a way to fix it.

Insert a small talk about how if there was peace it would be like heaven.

Insert moar ANGST AND WOE of adults being mean to them and then have a quick exchange of people won't be nice/heaven unless you make them be peaceful, so I'm going to make the whole world be nice so the world is heaven. World that is nice=Heaven, Ruling the World that is Peaceful/Nice=Ruling Heaven. Ruling Heaven=Being God. Tahdah! >.>;;;;

The dog thing was stupid.

I actually did kinda like them wandering in on the battle--on one hand it seems stupid, on the other hand, it's a ninja battle, they didn't notice it was a battlefeild because everyone was being ninja-y.

One thing that really WTF'ed me is that on Page three--is it just me or is the parent wearing NINJASHOES?! Cause that's what it looks like from the bottom.
