Naruto - 470-471
Forgot to do last week's. evil NaNo. Even this week i don't have time for page to page babble.
okay first, i'm not as frustrated about Sakura's fake confession as I was -- obviously urgh Kishi damn it way to make her look like she has an inflated sense of self-importance, but it's not Sakura's fault. I seriously hope I'm not expecting too much when I read the last chapter as OH MY GOD FINALLY SHE MIGHT EVEN MEET SASUKE THIS TIME AROUND. because the way the panels were framed and presented it seemed like foreshadowing that for once she'd actually succeed instead of once again "your sasuke is in another castle! :D" -- because she SERIOUSLY needs to clear the air, review her own motivation, and also learn all that stuff that Kakashi being such a good teammate and leader decided she didn't fucking need to know.
(my god, I know it must be darkest before dawn in a story like this so that the happy end feels REALLY rewarding, but aaaaaa kishi stop exploding team seven please god it hurts T__T)
Also she's been having all those "i'm not doing anything waugh what can i do *trapped trapped*" issues and "i'm relying on naruto way too much" issues, especially recently. So I'm glad she's going on her own, even though I wish Kishi hadn't motivated her in such a clumsy way.
Anyway this week's chapter, two things jumped at me:
-the hyuuga eye guy VERSUS the not-yamanaka guy moment. It was so... ninja-y. No huge techniques that remodel the countryside. No, it was all like... "This eyeball is Konoha's. I'm taking it back for the glory of Danzou-sama. Danzou, konoha, same schtick."
"Yeah but we stole it and it was real hard! That totally make it ours. Ha."
"Yeahwhatev'. Alright, no hard feelings but I'mma suicide you."
"Better not miss then, cause I won't miss you. Just saying."
NANANA PLAYING CHICKEN WITH A GUILLOTINE~
What can I say, psychological warfare = hot.
-PFFFHAHAHAHAHAHA KISAME TRANSFORMATION WHAT. NO, WHAT.
He looks kinda like a giant penis.
also samehada dragging itself to him on its tiny little claw-paws with its tiny skill pommel was SO CUTE. sowroooong. XD
In Bleach news, OH MY GOD. WHAT IS THIS STRANGE FEELING RUNNING THROUGH ME. WELL MORE LIKE DRIBBLING IN A SLOWLY WIDENING PUDDLE BUT.
AM I...
CARING ABOUT WTF IS HAPPENING?!?
Why, so I am. Not a TON, but, you know -- it's BLEACH. I haven't cared in at least five centuries and three quarters.
Funny how things can change when 1) the hero is actually around, 2) the hero is actually behaving in a way that shows his actual CHARACTER, you know, the one I fell in love with and followed a whole series FOR, 3) people I actually already have an emotional attachment to are onscreen (I EVEN CHEERED FOR CAPTAINMOM DO YOU KNOW HOW WEIRD THAT IS espeially since her role was mostly as yet another "ichigo=savior!" mouthpiece... I still loved it.) and 4) there's more than 5% of the chapter dedicated to things that aren't page-wide atomic mushroom clouds of better-than-you-ness.
