Naruto: The Thread.

Arg! The only thing that stinks about the games is that the story-line parts look like cardboard cutouts! Now that's C. H. E. A. P seriously, OOT's movies looked better than that crap. Hmm what I would like to see just for fun is a CGI movie. Not like a cartoon but more like TMNT, the style they used in that movie kinda suits the show doesn't it? I'm not saying they "should" do it, I'm saying they "could" do it. Now if only they could think of a "good" story to go with it.

Yeah, but Sacura's on the same squad as Naruto. See what I mean, so if that comrade was a girl there might be a connection right? I mean, what brings you and your girl together more than a bloddy, gory, ninja battle to the death. Isn't that romantic? HAHAHAHA
uh sorry for the double post.

Yea zelda I'm jumping around in the series I saw like 3 shippuden episodes of course they were english sub and I liked them then I went back to watching the stupid filler arcs and I've been keeping up with Shonen Jump on Naruto from the beginning so i know alot of things that happen and know even what happens much much later in Shipudden thanks to a website that told the spoilers of things like Sasuke, Naruto and all that.

I've been keeping up with Shonen Jump

shonen jump kicks ass! They have never failed to release half a volume of naruto manga every month. that means it's like 6 volumes of naruto every year! YAY! I love shonen jump. Although I hate how alot in the magazine when they get a new series they will start on chapter 100, or skip around in the series so that you will buy the manga to get a clue, I don't like that.

Is there much of a differance between the manga storyline and the one from the tv show? I like Naruto, but I'm not going to spend sixteen dollars for material I've already seen. (Well, maybe to see if I could get the colors right. Just to past the time.) The best thing about anime is the way they depict emotions on *insert characters name here* faces. Speaking of that, what's those blue lines mean? Like they're depressed or something? The one they use for anger is pretty funny. There's a couple differend ways they do it. But they're all funny!

The anime follows the manga storyline to a T. However, the anime does have extra things (such as the filler arc and movies, but only a small handful of those episodes are worth watching).

Yes, but they also have other purposes. They also represent feeling ill, being poisoned, being scarred half to death, or you are choking. As you can clearly see, all examples of those blue lines are negative to your life. It all depends on what the character is doing at the time, or what the character just saw/heard.

Oh I get it, so that's why it seems they're going down. I guess that pulsing X thing means something like a headache or it's agrivating...Man these guys are great with emmotions! I noticed this for the first time (the lines) in the first episode involving the Chunin Exam. When Lee and Naruto are leaning against the wall.( depressed) The funniest thing is the sparks between two peoples eyes. That means they're mad at eachother or something like that. The thing that points out the meaning is the sound that goes with it.

Naruto shippuden, the movie is out on narutoget.com!

aint it great?

Shonen Jump is sweet! Even though i know the story of shippuden, shonen jump makes it fun reading it again!

Ok, so the latest chapter of Naruto came out, and it seems like...

Spoiler (Highlight to read):

---

...they were trying to make Itachi as a good guy after his death (it's a cliched thing to do, but we can live with it). It seems that the higher-ups trained Itachi to be a spy/mole and kill them all, but why I ask, did Madara help him kill off his own clan? Did Madara not know it at the time? Was this Itachi's initiation test in order to join Akatsuki? Or did he simply plan this from the start (to gain his trust, use him in the Akatsuki, and then kill him)

A little while ago we learned that Itachi was in a previous battle, now it seems pretty certain that he was fighting Madara (or maybe even the last Bijuu...other than Naruto of course). With Sasuke and Madara talking, who thinks that Madara is going to try and reason with Sasuke to join his team? I mean, Sasuke can't go back to the village (that's obvious) he's a missing-nin. And even if he were to return, the higher-ups would order him to be killed (so that all Uchihas would secretly die out).

I think that before Madara and Sasuke finish talking, Naruto is going to come in (with Akamaru's help) and Sasuke will choose to either go home or go with Madara. He'll probably go with Madara because the sieries would be over if he went with Naruto.

Watch Naruto Shippuden: The Movie if you haven't already.

Spoiler (Highlight to read):

---

Madara convinces Sasuke to get into a fight with Naruto to take control of the Kyuubi. There is another 40 chapter Sasuke vs Naruto fight. Sasuke dies.

GOOD END.

Although, it might not happen, due to Kishimoto luving Sasuke so much.

Just saw Clash in the snow last week. What are you complaining about, sure the plot wasn't as cool as the show. The voice of the director guy yelling "cut" at the end before the credits made me laugh. But I guess that's the kinda thing you guys were complaining about. Let's see, the thing I noticed though there was no moment where the villan "almost" one. He just smacked sauske away like a fly, then Naruto showes up and saves the day as usual. Ugh why not have one of the other kids save the day for once? Well, besides Gahta's group.

Read the manga and watch some of the filler episodes. The other kids may have their "moment in the spotlight", but they'll never outshine Naruto considering he's supposibly going to become Hokage (so the whole series is suppose to be a success story, and how a ruler came to be).
