Naruto 670
Naruto meets up with the Sage of the Six Paths. And then the Sage has to speak slang to help Naruto understand. Then we get backstory on how the Sage created Ninshuu (not Ninjutsu) and how his sons, Indra and Ashura, started fighting each other. And then they started a war when Indra decided that he would be a better leader than Ashura. Now the two are being continuously reincarnated. So it turns out that Naruto is the current reincarnation. Heh. Hahaha! What's this about hard work and training beating out conditions at birth? Naruto is the luckiest person in the world! He was the son of the fourth Hokage and an Uzumaki jinchuriki. And now you're telling me that he's a reincarnation of the SOTSP's son?

By this point I'm convinced Kishi realised he accidentally made Naruto ninja-jesus and hopes that by repeating really often and really hard how he's the underdog, we'll buy it.

Sora no Shita Yane no Naka volume 1&2
A story about high school graduate who become NEET. She search for a job after that, and see as she struggle to find a job, and learn a thing or two about being responsible. Cute manga who sometime take a jab at reality. Can't recommend enough, i think it's a very good manga.

Terra formars Volume 2

So I just found out that there were separate chapters 1-5 that I never got to read because I thought there was time skip early.

That suddenly makes a lotttt more sense.

Bane? Get them on board, I'll call it in.
*looks over TOC* RIP Iron Knight. Kind of figured this would happen...

This is Illegal Rare's first ranking, not very good. It may last a year, or it will get swiftly killed.
Next week is IShojo's first ranking, we'll see how that fares.
In two weeks, Stealth Symphony. That's the one International Jump readers should pay attention to.

Also, my subscription to International Jump expires soon. Good. Viz can kiss my ass.

Look Viz, if you want more people to subscribe, you need to have more series. What you have now is pitiful. Quit making excuses like "too racy" or "too violent". Clearly you don't care if it's just Shonen Jump as you have All You Need is Kill from Young Jump. Get some series from that.
Jump editor Sakaki even said "we're not happy with the subscription numbers". Gee, maybe you should try to fix that!
Also, get rid of that "Zolo" crap.

Oh, and enough of the Yu-Gi-Oh card promotions. Get some other fucking promotions because most people probably don't care about Yu-Gi-Oh anymore.

Because naruto didn't have the most chakra of anyone alive aside from Kisame, nor was he further augmented with (half) of the 9 tails, the most powerful of the 9 tailed beasts by far (more powerful than the others combined, really), nor did he have blood ties to every Hokage, nor was he of the gifted uzumaki bloodline, nor did he have the natural talent to master the multi-shadow clone jutsu in less than a day, nor did he have the talent to master the rasengan in a week, nor did he have the talent to master sage mode, nor did he have the talent to use the Bijuu-dama, nor does he have a freakish amount of stamina.

Nope! No talent at all! And nothing handed to him!

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
I like how he didn't even get the two brothers in the same tradition. He's apparently referencing the Buddhist concept of the Asura (the three faces and six arms) and Indra, a Hindu storm god.

Also despite him being the series buttmonkey, he is surprisingly smart in combat, on par with Sasuke, maybe better.

The only reason he was ever a bad shinobi from the start was because no one would train him, and his own insecurities/persecution complex.

If Minato and Kushina lived, trained him, and the village didn't hate him for his first 13 years of his life, he would have probably been the top of his class.

Liked the chapter for its backstory. Glad Naruto is not the sage of six paths. Also really like how alien the sage and his mother look.

You know what I'm thinking. Since the other brother is clearly Sasuke and last time he did not co operate maybe this time he or basically sasuke will.

Naruto may finally go DBZ. Naruto Sasuke transformation incoming? That would be epic!

Do you think Naruto would be where he is without hard work? Its like you forgot about the entirety of the series before this point. Just because he has large chakra reserves does not make him powerful. He had it when he was younger yet its useless if you don't know how to perform the techniques correctly and know when. It certainly helped and made him achieve great things but it was primarily based on his hard work.

Furthermore having the nine tails is not the luckiest thing in the world. Far form it since it led to him being ostracised when he was small. Before he learned to control it, it would cause massive damage to him for the price of power.

In addition being the so of the 4th Hokage really doesn't grant him much as the sage himself even says in this chapter that it won't necessarily grant him power. He even uses Naruto as an example.

Not to mention in Hindu mythology, asuras are evil demons and always fighting the devas, which are the good gods. And Indra's brother is Agni.

hah, they got carried away as usual. hopefully that upskirt shot was just from our perspective, and she wasn't showing it off to anyone passing by (doubt it though)
