Naruto shippuden : kizuna (second movie)

[askerian]

And here I was too lazy to make a Kizuna post. Adi hasn't seen it, so I summarized what I remembered of it, and since i'm lazy i'm copypasting. Yay.


book_people: ...Also. What is Sasuke doing and why does it involve him wandering about shirtless? Not that I mind, per se, just curious
book_people: What is the plot of this movie, anyway? And why does it seem to involve a lot of getting wet?
Askerian: he's... exiting a cave and... using chidori on a lake.
Askerian: for no apparent reason
Askerian: but it looks cool!
book_people: indeed
book_people: ...he's releasing some tension?
Askerian: the plot is, konoha is attacked by ninja from the sky country (-__- names get stupider and stupider i swear)
book_people: *headdesk* Sky country?
Askerian: naruto meets up with some doctor guy and his tomboy apprentice who naruto doesn't even notice is a girl at first
Askerian: yeah. they have flying engines. and their castle floats. eventually. when they get it back.
book_people: ...
Askerian: anyway naruto and hinata and sakura go with doctorguy and the apprentice.
book_people: Why do they have flying machines but no guns?
Askerian: they have them!
Askerian: powered by chakra.
Askerian: somehow.
book_people: ...ah
book_people: ookay
book_people: XDD
book_people: okay, so they go with doctorguy and apprentice
Askerian: and they arrive at their home village and EVERYONE IS GONE. *gaspu*
book_people: Oh noes!
Askerian: then the filler girl finds a trap! by triggering it. and her mentor throws himself in the middle to save her and dies!
book_people: Drama!
Askerian: and then she's all NOOOOES and it turns out that inside her is the zero tail demon!
book_people: ...
book_people: ...
book_people: ...
Askerian: at that point i started reminding myself that sasuke was in that movie.
book_people: *dies laughing*
book_people: ooh Sasuke
Askerian: anyway hinata buggered off to look for survivors so sakura and naruto fight! and sakura tries first but then she loses, then naruto goes four-tails on the monster but somehow there was a tiny paper seal jiraiya got him and that's enough yay and he's normal again and he uses his powers of lecturing people until they stop being insane.
book_people: Jesuspunch ftw
Askerian: se's a GIRL he wouldn't punch her.
book_people: oh true
book_people: just lecturing until she keels over, then
Askerian: then when she's sane they decide to explore some place for idunnoiforgot and sakura goes to look for hinata and (omg all the sakuhina fanservice) meanwile the pretty little temple naruto and amaru were in uproots itself from the ground and flies off yay.
Askerian: IT WAS THE SKY COUNTRY'S CASTLE.
book_people: ...oops
book_people: what did Naruto press?
Askerian: nothing? XD
book_people: a likely story
book_people: XD
Askerian: so sakura is all WTF and naruto and amaru are all WTF and then the wise and nice mentor is all wassup ahaha you thought i was dead you retard.
Askerian: then amaru is all SENSEIIIIIIIIII♥ T^T I KNEW BEING PINCUSHIONED AND BURIED INTO THE GROUND COULDN'T MEAN YOU WERE DEAD FOR REALS
book_people: ...of course not
Askerian: then naruto is *gasp* the first to go "wtfwhat."
Askerian: then it turns out the nice mentor doctor guy was really the evil leader of sky country and his castle in the sky is powered by dark chakra which is created by hate.
book_people: what is this nonsense about death by pincushioning? Sasuke got pincushioned and he's just fine
Askerian: they didn't bury sasuke.
book_people: point
Askerian: It was a pretty little reverse-bowl tomb too.
Askerian: likely took a while to dig and fill up.
book_people: ...the dark side of chakra?
Askerian: well, in canon they do mention yin and yang chakra. i think kagemane is yin.
Askerian: still, wtf. hate chakra~
book_people: *headdesk*
book_people: so I'm guessing there's also love chakra then, and it's Stronger?
Askerian: XD haha. thankfully no.
Askerian: IN THIS MOVIE.
Askerian: anyway the guy reveals! how he never ever liked that silly twit amaru! for like the bazilion years he was like her dad! he was lying all along! just so he could betray her and make her haaaate
book_people: I am sensing repitition of plot points here
book_people: "I didn't really like you. I betrayed you so that you would hate me outot... I mean, apprentice"
Askerian: so then naruto tries to fight him, then the guy becomes a saiyajin.
Askerian: then naruto beats up up then the guys powers up then naruto and amaru have a NEVER GIVE UP convo and they beat up the guy but he powers up again and then they have another pep talk and and and.
Askerian: then sasuke decides he was getting fucking bored and intervenes.
book_people: ...*cracks the hell up*
Askerian: well i think naruto sent amaru away to find the prisoners first. (because that's where the villagers were! also, hinata, who didn't get to fight once, but did get to randomly pop up as a useless captive. Shit, hinata, why did you even come. okay there was sakuhina fanservice, which is good, BUT.)
Askerian: anyway then naruto goes !!sasuke!! and sasuke goes hn and completely ignores him and has zero expression on his face almost all along, apart from "impassive" and "vaguely put off".
book_people: why does everyone portray Hinata as useless? She's even useless in the movies...
Askerian: so then they fight the guy! and it turns out he's old and bald lol. (sasuke was here because the guy is apparently immortal and oro was interested.)
book_people: ...I see
Askerian: so sasuke gets teh secret scroll of secretness! and then the bad guy slips away and powers up into a TENTACLE MONSTER.
Askerian: then there's some fanservice.
Askerian: I mean.
Askerian: a fight.
book_people: *cracking up again*
Askerian: then sasuke goes cursed seal yay and naruto is all OH I CAN READ YOUR MIND, MY RIVAL and goes a little kyuubi because they guy absorbs chakra so let's see how much he can swallow. (you know all those people who use that trope, one day they'll find a monster who actually CAN take the power surge and then they'll be fucked.)
book_people: yeah
book_people: hopefully, when that happens, Sakura will be near by so she can sneak up behind it and punch it inna head
Askerian: then they escape. well, sasuke runs off and naruto runs after him calling for SASUKE! SASUKE! and sasuke is all lalala i'm alone lalala not hearing a thing lalala DID HE GET LOST YET
book_people: XDDDDD
book_people: Jeez, Sasuke. You know Naruto better than that. You think he'd give up because you clearly are attempting to go far far away from where ever he is? Please...
Askerian: there's... a mini blimp? with the villagers and hinata and amaru in it, and sasuke goes down to the ... quay. bay. thing? and then he looks back and naruto isn't following because the retard wants to destroy the floating castle first! D: and he says something silent and mysterious to sasuke and then amaru is all NOOO MAI NARUTO
and sasuke grabs her by the collar and throws her back into the blimp.
Askerian: it's such a "back off bitch" gesture. XDD
book_people: XDD

"" (Watch on YouTube)

Askerian: then the villagers escape! with Hinata and Amaru being all noooo, and Sasuke jumps on the blimp and then when they're lower down he goes curse seal and glides off. meanwhile Naruto is going kagebunshin on the castle.
book_people: Of course he is
book_people: because kage bunshin solves everything
Askerian: then the castle is all into tiny bits! D: and naruto faaaaaalls.
book_people: Nuuuuuuuu
Askerian: then amaru grabs a flying wing thing and throws herself at naruto! but she can't catch up. so OF COURSE what she does is that she lets go of the glider so she'll fall faster and catch up to him.
NOW HE CAN DIE WHILE CUDDLED IN HER CLEAVAGE INSTEAD. GOOD JOB.
book_people: *sigh* filler Sues...
Askerian: meanwhile shika and sai and shino and kakashi were watching the destruction being all "...yep, that's naruto." "oh, completely."
meanwhile sasuke is looking back at naruto falling.
book_people: some friends they are...
Askerian: then... jiraiya summons a frog with a belly full of air and they land on it and bounce. [/random Mc randomson.]
book_people: Jiraiya ex machina!
Askerian: Sasuke gives a little "hah" smile and walks off. then music blahblahblah ~
book_people: Damn it, Sasuke! Go back right now! Right now, young man! >(((
Askerian: at the end sasuke gives oro the scroll and oro is all "oh, did something good happen?" and sasuke is all "hnn" and he flashbacks to naruto, who was telling him "i'll definitely get you back BELIEVE IT" during that dramatic silent moment, and then he goes chidori on a lake again and the lightning shapes the kanji for END. tadah.



Askerian: why sasuke loves chidoriing lakes so much, i don't know. hillbilly fishing?
book_people: ...so he can show off without actually causing any damage?
book_people: He needs to keep his fan base happy, after all...
Askerian: XD
Askerian: it's so random. also the first time he did it, he was standing under the waterfall.
book_people: ooh, electrocution
Askerian: i guess i know where the filler writers got that idea for kakashi using the chidori underwater. twice.
book_people: *headdesk*
Askerian: i suppose perhaps if he's the one who generates it, he might be able to protect himself or be immune or something... -__-
Askerian: but how the lightning stayed coherent instead of dissipating in all directions for kakashi, i don't know
book_people: maybe



book_people: ...You know, looking at the caps in the icons I can safely say that it is still impossible to take Sasuke seriously in that outfit
Askerian: XD indeed.
Askerian: he kept taking it off for no reason!
book_people: He needs some serious fashion advice. From someone other than Orochimaru
Askerian: also he had maybe ten lines of dialogue total. and no meaningful interaction with naruto at all.
Askerian: he was all about the fanservice.
Askerian: ...i really like the gloves.
Askerian: he can lose the rest, though. >_>
book_people: ...They really don't get why we like him and want him to go home, do they?
book_people: Yeah, the gloves were cool. I wish he'd kept them in the next outfits
Askerian: yeah, they'd have looked good with the black sleeveless one
Askerian: *_*
book_people: Indeed
book_people: His new outfit looks like it's the bastard love child of his Konoha outfit and his first sound outfit
Askerian:

smiles as naruto is safe!
book_people: d'awwww
Askerian:

and that's the "back in the blimp, woman."
Askerian: his faaaaace XDDD
Askerian: he just snatched her by the back of her collar and flung her ass over head XD
book_people: XDDD A little possessive, huh?
Askerian: u___u
book_people: nobody else is allowed to save Naruto's ass
Askerian:

oh, smiling a bit here too >__>
book_people: Yay for not being a brick!
Askerian:

run to escape the giant tentaclehand, sasuke!
Askerian:

book_people: ...hahahahahaha
Askerian:

...oops...

ho hum, i seem to be caught. nothing to be afraid of, it was all part of my plan.

book_people: Is it just me, or was this idea taken directly from the "by letting this slime eat you, I shall take over your body" chapter?
book_people: XDDD
Askerian: ?__?
book_people: Oh, the fight with Oro. The imagery strikes me as similar
Askerian: XD
Askerian: right.
book_people: Runs in the family

Askerian:

hnn.
book_people: What in heaven's name is that face?
book_people: He's frowning and smirking?
Askerian: i have no idea.
book_people: ...maybe squinting?
Askerian: XD maybe!
book_people: ...you know? I'm gonna chalk it up to poor animation
Askerian: yeah, that always works. XD
book_people: You can never go wrong with "the animators are awful"

Askerian:

naruto being all "hey dude, weren't you dead and buried."
book_people: ♥
book_people: I like it when he's smart
Askerian: well, it might not have been a case of smart as much as a case of evil smirk on the guy's face. XD i forget.
book_people: ...yeah, that would do it
Askerian:


naruto: *stares at that hand* oh come on, go lower, go lower--"
book_people: Also, honestly laughing out loud at those two screen caps
book_people: Particularly Sasuke's disgruntled look in the second one
book_people: "What are you looking at? Moron..."
Askerian: XDDD
Askerian:

sasuke being naked...
book_people: Yay nakedness!
Askerian:

sasuke escaping naked...
book_people: (he likes to be free)
Askerian:

then that's from the intro...
Askerian:

... more naked...
book_people: Jeez. He just walks around without a shirt. Not that I really blame him, it's not much of a shirt, but...
Askerian: every scene he had, he lost his shirt.
book_people: ...I really want that belt to get caught on something just so that we can all be validated in our belief that the entire outfit is held up by a rope belt
Askerian: *_*
book_people: Also, it might slow him down enough for Naruto to pounce on him


Askerian: there was a sai fight that was pretty neat
book_people: Oh?
Askerian: i'm angry at my computer because it keeps lagging during high speed moments
book_people: Sorry man.
Askerian: yeah, he was flying on his bird and they were chasing him in the air and he just kept evading them and knocking them down into the sea.
book_people: that sounds really cool
Askerian: yeah
book_people: About time Sai got some respect as a talented fighter. He was in ANBU for god's sake...

Askerian:

"" (Watch on YouTube)

Sai/Shika/Shino battle scene!
book_people: Yay! Go Sai!
book_people: And Shino, actually. Wow, you go bugs!



Anyway...

Good things about this movie:
-I kinda like Amaru. well, I don't hate her too much. I think she's retarded and kinda useless, of course, but... I dunno. I wonder how she managed to hide her boobage that well, though granted her vest is kinda thick... but whoa did it bulge out when the bandage gave up. Kinda annoyed how she was just beside hinata and she was the one who got to scream naruto's name and do the heroic sacrifice thing. Blah. But, she's kinda cute when she loses the stupid hat. .__.
-sasuke fanservice. sasuke bare chest. sasuke prettyfighting.
-Sai fight! It was kinda cool actually.
-... the saiyajin!bad guy made me lol? .__.
-May-December romances~ more like May loving and December using, but that makes it even better. (Considering how awestruck she was toward him ... if her sensei didn't tap Amaru's ass, i'll be surprised. it is a sign of how depraved and twisted I am that the fact the 50 year man who took a young teenager under his wing probably abused her by playing on her feelings for him is actually a plus and not a minus. I regret nothing.)
-Random Jiraiya cracked me up. Also it was cute in a goofy way.
-SO MUCH SAKURAHINATA FANSERVICE. THEY WERE HOLDING HANDS. ♥♥♥

Bad things:
-There was zero actual interaction between sasuke and naruto. There was some canned "i will get you back!" but Sasuke mostly completely ignored Naruto and behaved as if he wasn't there, and for the most part after the first "!!sasuke!!" moment naruto just behaved like they see each other and fight together every week.
-sasuke had zero relevance to the plot, apart from a contrived reason to be there and be fanservicey.
-sasuke's scenes were actually TINY. >;(
-Sakura didn't even get to catch a glimpse of Sasuke -- no matter since, like naruto, she would have been allowed no emotional response. I should have expected it, stupid me. It's a movie, they can't allow it to develop jack shit.
-zero tailed beast. whatthefuckingwhat. tell me I misunderstood.
-"I behaved exactly as if I loved you for years... BUT I WAS LYING ALL ALONG FOR THE LULZ. BECAUSE I'M JUST THAT EVIL. >:D" mmm subtle villain motives.
-my computer kept freezing.



... now I want to write fic for Amaru and Yukie-hime of the first movie and the miko from the first shippu movie. Or at least see if there's any and whether it's good. Oh self, why.

I LOVED the NaruSasu fanservice.

...I may also be a starved fangirl...

[exorcistor.livejournal.com]

I don't feel like watching this movie, now. Not because it sounds horrible, or anything, but because nothing - NOTHING - can possibly beat this summary. Oh, Asuka ♥

[questofdreams.livejournal.com]

Sai. Kicked. Ass. LOL XD I so fangirled >_>; Intensely.

Also, Sasuke under the waterfall was worth the entire movie imo >_>;;;; I'm easy ._.

I also hate how the movies always make him go kyuubi for whatever contrived reason >_> And I did go 'wtf' at how he just... accepted Sasuke's presence after his initial surprise and was like 'HI SASUKE, HOW YOU DOIN?' every time Sasuke turned around and ran away from him, which he did... often. >_>

OH YEAH. SUPER SAIYAN OLD GUY. LOLOLOLOL OMG HIS HAIR WAS SO POOFY I WANTED TO PET IT XDDD

But hey. Sai kicked ass. Sasuke got wet and naked. Repeatedly. ALL IS WELL 8D

[sharibet.livejournal.com]

LOL! I just watched this movie last week, and yup, you nailed it perfectly. I should have just waited for your summary! With Screencaps!

[illegal-goddess.livejournal.com]

__why sasuke loves chidoriing lakes so much__

Lol, a friend of mine thinks it's his way of maintaining his hairstyle. You know. Electricity. Water. Spiky. XD

[tephra]

Askerian: why sasuke loves chidoriing lakes so much, i don't know. hillbilly fishing?

Kinda goes with his theme music for the movie. Granted, that was a guitar and not a banjo, but still....

The girl tossing cracked me up so bad. XD

[valles-uf.livejournal.com]

*prepared to approve of SakuHina, being the shallow male creature that he is*

[icelightning.livejournal.com]

The best part about the girl tossing is the limp wrist affect afterwards. "That ass is property of ME, get in the escape pod thing."

Okay, probably not really, but... yeaaaaah.

[rosalui.livejournal.com]

XD The best parts were, in my mind, Sasuke (yum, waterfalls) and Sai being totally badass, because you're right, it's about time we saw what he really can do. :DDDDDDDDD

Also, Sasuke tossing whatsername over his sholder was very "Back off of my man, biatch." XD <3

[rosalui.livejournal.com]

PS - ......wait. You were SERIOUS about that "Zero Tailed Beast" thing???? How did I miss that? *rewatches frantically* WTF???????????

Also, WTF was up with fillerSue sucking the poison out of Naruto's thigh? >.>

[kittychan1986.livejournal.com]

*Cackling at the Comentary* Sounds like it was good for lulz. Just think, now people have another reason to draw shirtless Sasuke. He needs to stop letting Ori dress him like whoa. ((Also, why do all the movie bad guys try to pull an Aizen? It worked for him, sure....but Bleach had awhile to build up and trick you with his good-guy hair.)) Dammit...You need to rewrite the movie now to allow for more Team 7 Interaction. Because why was the stupid bit there anyway, you already had the founding member of the Naruto fan club ON the boat. ((Movie writers obviously do not know that we'd also like to see Hinata be cool. Like the Bug Filler...that was cool. Not useless needing to be rescued from everything Hinata))

I loled because apparently Sasuke is channeling the fans everywhere. "On the boat, woman. My Naruto."

I'm cool with fanservices..but can't we have more character interaction? He's still going to leave and Naruto's still going to chase him, but that doesn't cut out a quicky on the side...you know...stress relief...

((On the Subject of Evil Bad guy mentor and young innocent apprentice, I still swear up and down that Oro has gotten him a bit of Sasuke loving.... Which horrifies me, but the dude is SUCH A Pedophile, I would be shocked at him if he didn't.))

[nekokriszty.livejournal.com]

Go lower, hand!!!!!!! I COMMAND YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ah, these last 20 minutes were the best part of my day so far. Love. =3

Also, yayyyy for "Stripper!Sasuke not stripping for girls" XD
