  1. Chapter 304 Discussion [Naruto]

    Sorry, it wont happen exactly like that. :darn As soon as Naruto "powers up," Yamato comes charging over. Then we get full Kyuubi supression. So no red eyes, no Kyuubi chakra. Still, I know what you mean about a controlled, angry Naruto. He's always either: Ready to forgive his opponent...
  2. Chapter 305 Discussion [Naruto]

    Re: 305 Prediction [Naruto] Not a screw-up. Naruto still uses two of himself to perform a rasengan in most cases.* As far as a prediction goes, I'm not even going to try with Sai. He has completely gone off the reservation, betraying just about everyone to whom he was supposed to have had...
  3. Chapter 303 Discussions [Naruto]

    Re: 303 Predictions [Naruto] Because: Foreshadowing. Live it. Love it. Actually, there are four possible betrayers: Kabuto, Sai, Sasuke -- and Yamato. Only Oro, Sakura and Naruto's loyalties are really determined, imho. My favorite scenario has multiple betrayals all happening at once...

    Re: Your TOP 10 MANGAS! Looks like an anime list... Here's mine: ranma 1/2 dbz freesia naruto believers io i''s pastel ichigo 100% love hina There were like 25 books that were in contention for the last five spots. C'mon people, buckle down and limit it to ten. :) Looking at my list I...
  5. Chapter 302 Discussion [Naruto]

    Re: 302 Predictions [Naruto] No one will fight ... yet. They always need to talk a bit before they fight and given that none of the contenders have met up yet - no fight next issue. I agree that they'll split up, but not on purpose. Yamato and Naruto were discussing tactics two issues ago...
  6. Chapter 301 Discussion [Naruto]

    It's definitely genjutsu. The sense of killing intent manifests itself as paralysing fear. That was a complete hallucination. Also, the early translations imply it was a doujutsu ... though who knows. Nihongaeri may blow through here and explain that Sasuke doesn't like to be looked at directly...
  7. Chapter 298 Discussion [Naruto]

    Re: 298 Predictions [Naruto] Good post, would rep you if I could. Disagree with one minor point though. Naruto engaged his enemy in battle at the place of his enemy's choosing and forced his enemy to flee the field. By most objective standards, Naruto won the battle. Was it a decisive...
  8. Chapter 298 Discussion [Naruto]

    Re: 298 Predictions [Naruto] ... or Danzou has in fact done nothing that the village council would disapprove of, such as plant a spy/assassin in Orochimaru's organization. I'm not suggesting that he's done it with Tsunade's knowledge, but rather that he intends to present it as a fait...
  9. Chapter 298 Discussion [Naruto]

    Re: 298 Predictions [Naruto] 298: Team 7 chats about what to do and decides that they should follow the tracking device that Yamato has implanted in the ANBU mask Sai is carrying. 299+: It is revealed that the letter states: "Dear Orochimaru, Let's be pals. Here is a spare body for you. He...
  10. Chapter 297 Discussion [Naruto]

    Re: 297 Predictions [Naruto] I've been hoping for a Chuunin exam since it was first mentioned at the beginning of part two. Not because of Naruto-fanboyism per se (he IS going to be the Hokage one day, after all) but because of the potential for some interesting characterization. Sending...
  11. Chapter 296 Discussion [Naruto]

    It keeps him from becoming an empty threat, story-wise. We'll see him fight unrestricted right before somebody kills him. Gotta say, even in his gimp-body, Oro is one tough bastard.
  12. Chapter 296 Discussion [Naruto]

    Re: 296 Predictions [Naruto] Errr ... no. Kakashi taught Sasuke the Chidori because Sasuke has the Sharingan, a seemingly necessary adjunct for the Chidori to be effective. Naruto has demonstrated ample ability to learn, even in front of Kakashi (such as tree walking). Much of Naruto's early...
  13. Chapter 291 Discussion [Naruto]

    Re: 291 Predictions Nah. Don't expect Orochimaru to have much more in the way of summons than the snakes and Edo Tensei, even if it makes "logical" sense for him to do so. Kishimoto likes these characters to be specialists and summoning seems to be a Jiraiya specialty. As for Sakura, slugs are...
