Fri, May. 15th, 2009 14:42I was reading over my post on Frog/Snake/Slug patterns in Naruto teams and trying to figure out Team Hebi/Taka...
Which is which? D: Slug seems to be the one who balances out the two, and Snake and Frog the rivals with competing views on life... Slug tends to be the healer. Rin, Konan and Sakura also get to be more passive (Sakura working on that, when Kishi lets her); Tsunade isn't passive much, but she displayed a weakness of character when she abandoned Konoha even though she fixed that afterwards. Snakes are Orochimaru, Nagato, Kakashi, and Sasuke -- the cool/cold ones with a tendency to be pessimistic and an innate better-than-you-ness to cover for their lacking ideals; Frogs are Jiraiya, Yahiko, Obito and Naruto -- the hot-tempered idealist underdogs.
... So.
( Karin = Slug or Snake? )
