Naruto 465

http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/465/01/



1) "An evil darkness surrounds Sasuke..." and then he makes an evil smirk. SO SUBTLE KISHI. :3

2-3) "a cave-in born of hatred." A CAVE-IN BORN OF HATRED. aahahahahaha. i'm srsly hoping it's just the translation that sounds weird there. Because... what. I can't even explain why it's so WTF, it just is. It was pretty much the only solution to escape there, though. That or the floor. When everyone is busy falling or trying to keep from getting crushed, they're not attacking you.

4) ROCKS FALL. EVERYBODY o wait they're ninjas nevermind.
I like how Suigetsu is all WHAT THE HELL because srsly Sasuke, what the hell. XD

5) omg karin has nice hips when they're not all hidden in her shirts and cloaks. The way Sasuke's ghost armor thing caught Karin... and then flung her to safety so hard she landed with her glasses crooked was LOL.
I was torn between YAY SASUKE LOEV HIS TEAMMATES because I know he secretly does but it's always yay when he actually SHOWS it, and "yet again another little scene for the trend of 'the guys manage more or less well on their own, but the girl needs someone to save her ass."

6) ... But then I looked at the next page. "Have you located Danzo?" and "What about Suigetsu and Juugo?" "Leave them." The "yay sasuke does loev his teammates!!!" fuzzies went sizzleplop. Yeah, so he didn't catch Karin and get her to him just because he wanted to rescue de gurl but because he needed her to lead him to his absolute goal. Huh. Especially Karin's face of utter shock... it really surprised her too, and when you remember Karin used to be a prison guard and experiment on people for Orochimaru and that she loves it when Sasuke is ruthless... HUH.

7) And then we have scared-little-girl-face Karin and "Sasuke, what happened to you?" which gives me yet more HUH.

Raikage: SHORYUKEN! Pffft. X3

8) "Looks like Sasuke took this opportunity to escape." Hon, why else would be break the ceiling? Just so he could stand underneath?
"Naruto, what would you have done?" = n'aw. (answer: he'd have gone HuggingOctopus on Saucecakes.)

9) Hm. Suigetsu. Of course he'd go back to water the second the sword was loose. But I wonder if he would have been crushed otherwise. D: Noooo.
Huh, Juugo looks younger there. -- whut. What is he...?

10) ... did he just... use that hand-needle-thing to... like... go vampire-mosquito on that poor samurai guy? Oh god. oh god the samurai's glove went flop like it was suddenly half-empty.

It... makes sense, I mean, he shared his own flesh to fix Sasuke's wide open ribcage! IT MAKES SENSE.

Why did I not figure out he could do the reverse. That he could suck in someone's flesh instead.

That's so creepy. AWESOME.

11) "they're here!" aw, they're counting Karin. *snrk* Nah, the japanese was probably just HERE with the subject implied. (this comment was mostly so i'd have something to say about that page. okay, next.)

12) CEILING SASUKE DOES NOT APPROVE.
It's funny his butt-skirt doesn't flop down more. I understand on the side of the sword sheat, but the other side? Poo, it would have been funny.
I like how there were two panels of progressively closer close-up on Sasuke's angry upside-down eyes as he stared down Danzou. DUN DUN DUN -- and then Samurai-mod intervenes to close that thread.

13) CH'ING! Swordman against swordman. I srsly hope a samurai would be better than a ninja, even a sharingan ninja. otherwise what are samurai good for.
... meanwhile Danzou has run away ahahahahahaha.

14) Mizukage's serious-subordinate -- Ao? Aoi? "omg danzou fled i'll go after him!" i'm not sure if it's because he wants to cooperate on keeping him safe from sasuke or because damn it no running away when we were cross examinating you for treacherous shenanigans. Probably the second, with a dash of the first as a polite excuse. I like that they're so untrusting between each other. X3

15) hahaha the old drunkard kage. "my hips are troubling me so i'm not gonna do jack shit." XD XD XD XD XD.
Sasuke: like hell i'm staying here. i'mma escape now! Karin, heel! >__>

16) Mizukage: HAHAHA no.
It's strange, her jutsu is like melty chewing-gum or wax, and the way she wipes her mouth she probably spat it out like a number of other jutsu. But being a woman we don't see her spit it, just her wiping her made-up lips from that little white drop. *has bad thought*
"akatsuki (...) made yondaime mizukage their plaything" ... huh. Wasn't yondaime mizukage secretly Madara? Or was he the one before that? Maybe the translation's grammar is messed up and it's more like "made a mockery of the office" than "manipulated the actual, flesh and blood not-madara mizukage"? Hmmmm. I'm leaning toward grammar whut.

17) "Looks like the uchiha clan has some good-looking men." "such a good-looking man, what a waste." ... HAHAHAHA. I love that. She's all pretend-hitting on Sasuke just before getting ready to PWN his ass. I mean okay she's admiring his face, but his personality or his strength or his intelligence? very much no. "What a waste" indeed. XD

O.o the saliva thing is a kekkei genkai? I was assumling a variant on a water jutsu, but yeah, water doesn't melt like that. I wonder what it is exactly..

aaaaaand next chapter will be some more kage-fighting. okay, that's cool. but man I want to know what naruto is up to. AND SAKURA WHERE IS SAKURA. WAUGH. TEAM SEVEN REUNIONNNNNN.

(answer: he'd have gone HuggingOctopus on Saucecakes.)
Which I desperately want to see, dammit.

The Hugging would probably come after some srs Will of Fire-ing. Though that might just make the hugging that much more "aww Teamloev".

That's so creepy. AWESOME.
I know! I freaked out for about 5 seconds before I went "Dude, that's NEAT! Nifty."

O.o the saliva thing is a kekkei genkai? I was assumling a variant on a water jutsu, but yeah, water doesn't melt like that. I wonder what it is exactly..
Acid slime? Slimey acid? Gelatinous slimey watermuck? Gah, color would make it so much easier to tell...I think.

Is it sad that I want to see Sasuke get his ass handed to him by the Mizukage for at least a few pages? I mean SOMEBODY has to shake the stupid out of this boy and Naruto isn't exactly within Sasuke-shaking distance right now.

but man I want to know what naruto is up to. AND SAKURA WHERE IS SAKURA. WAUGH. TEAM SEVEN REUNIONNNNNN.
When Gaara wondered how Naruto would've dealt with Sasuke I seriously thought "Finally we're going back to NaruWHAT THE HELL KISHI. D:<"

I KNOW SASUKE IS YOUR FAVORITE CHARACTER KISHIMOTO BUT SERIOUSLY MAKE WITH THE TITLE CHARACTER ALREADY. LAST TIME WE SAW HIM HE WAS IN NEED OF SERIOUS HUGZ.

ALSO, MAKE WITH THE REUNIONS ALREADY. At least have Kakashi show up to deliver some much-needed Guilt-Tripping or something, I'm getting desparate here.

... i wonder if it would be followed by some Springtime of Youth okay that was lame
...actually, if Sakura arrives at the right time and brings the rest of the Konoha 12 with her, that might just happen. Which is kind of scary actually.

Hopefully it'll be explained next week...
It better be. "Yoton no Jutsu" sounds like something out of a bad fanfic.

And yes, seeing Mizukage fighting for more than a token two panels would be WHEEYAY.
Yes it would. I WANT TO SEE A KUNOICHI KICK SERIOUS ASS KISHI. GRANT MY WISHES.

Oh man a kakashi guilt trip. *_* A++ approved.
Yup! Who knows, second time could be the charm.

And maybe this time Kakashi'll just leave him tied to the damn tree for Naruto to find. Gift-wrapped Sasgay!


Also, gabzillaz on DA described Karin's reaction to Sasuke the best: "You know something is up when the characters notice another character is being OOC."

Haven't read the chapter yet, and now I probably don't need to XD

Except to see ceiling Sasuke 8D GOD WHAT IS TAKING NARUTO SO LONG, SURELY IT HAS SPREAD BY NOW THAT THE KAGE PARTY HAS BEEN CRASHED BY ZOMG A MISSING NIN WANTED IN TWO COUNTRIES DX Or... maybe that would be kept hush-hush to prevent widespread panic and political upheaval lol. IDK aifjeiefs

Okay, to be honest, I just want to read it to look at Sasuke. >}

My thoughts on this chapter basically come down to 2 points:

1. I'm tired of the hyped-up Sasuke's a bad guy thing. I know it's to up the DORAMA and all that, but come on. Evil darkness? Really? Bleh. I like how at the end, at least, he's all 'i just wanna kill danzou, k?'

2. Gaara's 'what would jesus naruto do' moment. XD I think he's the only character that actually gets to use that and not be lame.

I'm mad Danzou ran, but seeing the Mizukage give Sasuke a little hell might be fun for a while, too, so I'm okay with that. :D

Yeah, that whole thing was just weird. I dunno. Maybe it wouldn't be if I didn't already have strong feelings on Sasuke NOT being evil? I know there are a lot of people who don't like Sasuke, and there are probably a lot of people on the fence about him and this is just tipping the scale back and forth. To me, though, it just seems dumb. I can't help it. XD I don't believe he's finally succumbed to the Dark Side. I don't think he ever will. I do think he's capable of getting too caught up in the moment and being blinded by his revenge...to an extent. I don't think he'll ever lose control completely, but maybe he can be pushed close to it? ugh. I need to stop over-analyzing. XD

I agree about Suigetsu and Juugo, though. That was pretty shitty, but yeah, he probably did assume they'd be fine.

2. Which is exactly why Neji might think it but stand there stoically while his hair fluttered in the breeze. >D

That's what I'm hoping for. I'm kinda ready for this little scene to be over, but I can wait a little longer if mizukage brings some awesome.

[identity profile] akapiratequeen.livejournal.com 2009-09-25 03:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Mizukage had better tie Sasuke up and strip him in the next chapter before using her super awesome sticky-white-liquid jutsu on him...ooh. I feel a fic coming on.

Seriously, where. the. fuck. is. Sakura/Naruto. I'm so bored with all the "WOW! WHAT INCREDIBLE POWER/oops nvrmnd he dodged it" crap Kishi!

...Congratulations, this got me to actually read a full Naruto chapter for the first time in...I'm not sure how many years. I'm not sure if being clueless made it better or--no, I'm pretty sure it made it better.

(Though, page 10? Wow, no kidding, that was creepy. Yeeeek.)

[identity profile] snowdevil-crow.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
Gaara's "what would Jesus Naruto do" moment made me bawww like hell.

And I am still holding out a vague hope that Sasuke is not just going after Danzou for his own revenge - that he's doing it in order to protect Naruto from whatever plans Danzou's making, too.

I can have my dreams can't I. ;_;

(but, yes, I am so looking forward to watching Sasuke getting his ass beat down by the Mizukage)

[identity profile] yira-heerai.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 03:19 am (UTC)(link)
Is it bad.. that I want someone to shop that panel of Gaara wondering what Naruto would do and just replace it with "WWND"?

Cause that's totally what I thought.

Karin, though, she's changed a bit I think. From when she was with Orochimaru. Different team, different dynamics. It's probably a lot warmer than it had been being a guard for Orochimaru. For that to suddenly all snap back to how it probably had been before... That might be what shocked her.

Or I could be out of my mind, I dunno.

And the way that Ao/Aoi/whatever his name is reacted during the stare-down, I'm wondering if maybe that Byakugan saw something about Danzou. What it is, I have no damn clue but yeah. INCRIMINATING EVIDENCE. Maybe.

Sorry about this, while I watch your journal for your fics I rarely comment because I can rarely think of anything to say other than how much I loved it and how great it was.

However, I couldn't help but notice a couple of thing that I wanted to point out.

Regarding the Fourth Mizukage, It was revealed in chapter 458 on page 03 that the Fourth Mizukage was in reality Yagura who was the container of the Three-tails. It was also revealed later on page 10 that it was suspected that he was being controlled by someone.

In referrence to the current Mizukage's bloodline little is currently known except that while it shares the same name as the Four-tails containers lava techniques, that is to say "Yoton" in stead of using the symbol for fire it uses the same symbol as the one used for Katsuyu's Acid Spit, which seems to indicate the it is an acid based bloodline.

Sorry about that I just thought you might find it useful incase you did something with Kiri in one of your future fics. I shall now return to lurking in wait for new fiction updates on your journal.

LOL

So...the only comment I can make is that Gaara's little "Naruto, what would you do?" comment made me immediately think "What Would Naruto Do?" because, you know, Naruto = Jesus. :sage nod:

[identity profile] maruiqi.livejournal.com 2009-09-27 01:17 pm (UTC)(link)
I can't remember exactly what was said but someone with superior Japanese knowledge to mine claimed the name of Mizukage's semen jutsu implied it was an Earth/Fire mix. Sooooo, really badly drawn lava?

I'm still wondering how Gaara can control sand like that without the ichibi...
