Naruto

Naruto at this point is a brain dead patient. You used to like him before his accident and you don't want to pull the plug because of hope of him coming out of it but at some point after staring at his lifeless body losing weight and atrophy setting in you begin to realize that all you are doing is preventing him to pass away peacefully.
 
Naruto

I knew it, I knew it, I knew it

I tried to argue how absurd it was for Obito to straight up lose to Kakashi in a skirmish, but it's clear that he wanted to get stabbed in the hurt to remove the seal

Dempa Kyioshi 113:

So the magical girl arc is over, and the moral of the story is...become a NEET because it's the only place in the world where you can live out your fantasies of being a pretty pretty princess.

No, this arc was interesting, even if it was retread ground.
 
Naruto - 675:

I mean...is there any real benefit for making Madara more of a villian now?
The final twist is that Madara will have the same plan as Lelouch.
Become the biggest heel of all time in order to unite the countries against him, then accomplish (temporary) world peace by having the entire world rejoice when he's killed
 
I like how despite being almost 600 chapters behind (I just finished the Alabasta arc in the manga, and toonami just finished the water 7 arc in the anime... I think. Train departed) in One Piece, I can discern a bit about where things are headed in the short term (as in up through water 7) and the general direction things go in the long term (as in after water 7) even from small comments here and there. I know the names of the various pieces, but the journey on how they connect and intertwine with each other, that's left for me to see on my own. And it's strangely appropriate for the overall tone of the manga. The destination is just past the horizon, and I can't wait to see it.

For instance, I can already generally tell that Usopp ends up with his own pirate crew (because I know he leaves in Water 7 - possibly ends up with Franky in the crew based on their interactions), and as time goes on in the manga, his lies from early on (about being a great warrior, captain, having 8000 crew members, etc) become more and more true, and I know I'm going to love the ever living shit out of it.

I still wonder how high the bounty amounts go. I look forward to the day where Luffy reaches 1 billion (Just finished alabasta, so he's at 100 million now, and zorro's at 60 million, though the crew doesn't know that yet)
 
Naruto - 675:

I mean...is there any real benefit for making Madara more of a villian now? He's trying to end the world, who cares about the point where he STARTED manipulating Obito, it's not like this changes anything. Weird piece of development that just makes him seem cartoonish instead of opportunistic. Like he was watching the kids under the bleachers and cackling evilly as he plotted out a scheme to poison the punch bowl and steal the rec center money.

I think this is less to make Madara a villain, and more to humanize Obito. More specifically, to justify him suddenly turning around and being a "good guy." It wasn't just a matter of talk no jutsu, it's that he effectively had a talk no jutsu repellant on his heart that was physically removed.

For instance, I can already generally tell that Usopp ends up with his own pirate crew (because I know he leaves in Water 7 - possibly ends up with Franky in the crew based on their interactions), and as time goes on in the manga, his lies from early on (about being a great warrior, captain, having 8000 crew members, etc) become more and more true, and I know I'm going to love the ever living shit out of it.

There's some definite wrong in here, but also some definite right, some of which is only just now coming to pass in the manga. Read on!
 
Bleach

Hm, the same thing that happens to Yachiru happened in TBTP arc where shinigami disappeared and left their clothes behind them. Aizen was making experiments to see how much shinigami body can contain power. There are theories now that say that Kenpachi Yachiru thing is like Starrk and Lillinette. Kenpachi split his soul into two bodies because he has too much powers. At least that is what V was implying according to the theory.
 
All the more reason for me to continue sailing forward and exploring new lands! ^_^

ADVENTURE-HO

Intriguing.
 
So, how Kakashi supposed to fight now without teh sharingan? And Sakura just got lost her job!

He's still an elite ninja and a prodigy even without the sharingan. He may have gotten the moniker for being the copy ninja and mastering 1000 jutsu (with the aid of the sharingan), but he's as skilled, famous, and feared as he is because of how resourceful he is at using the tools at his disposal. Of which he's amassed a ton, making him exceptionally versatile and well rounded.

He's not as good at genjutsu as, say, Itachi or Madara, and he's not as good at taijutsu as Guy, or as good of a strategist as Shikamaru, but he's still better at strategizing than most combat strategists, better at hand to hand combat than most hand to hand combat specialists, and has more experience than most ninjas. In the event that he encounters someone with better raw skills in one area than him, he can usually rely on his experience and his versatility to give him an advantage.

You basically have to be a master of some specialty to beat kakashi in it - and if you can out class him in one specialty, he'll outclass you in five others, and use those to beat you, instead.

And I thought Onodera had a stupid hairstyle
 
Naruto 675

And Ninja Jesus said,

"Let this man have an eye!"

And without a moments notice, the man regrew his missing eye, completely dumbfounded as he looked on at thy holiness of the all mighty savior, the non believing sinner, and the virgin complaining about her continuous fall into mediocrity.
 
Dr. Hitomi's

Now this is how you do the tsun right. Not any of that Erina nonsense.

Wookie-sensei is also too kind. :3
