[Official] Anime/Manga Thread

Nope, those are the actual new characters. That's the boy who's going to use the new "Nirvash". The girl looks to be his sister.

The whole cast is new so far and it's set some years after the original series. It would be odd if it was about Renton and Eureka to begin with considering their at least older now and what happened in the last episode of the original series.

Hold on, I'm totally wrong about this. It actually is the girl of the story named Naru Arata and the girl behind her is actually her sister. I thought the boy was living with his sister, father and grandmother. But in the picture, the boy (Ao Fukai) is actually in the "Nirvash". I already thought it was wrong to make a boy version of Eureka :pinch: Besides, I'm sure they wont give a boy pink eyes, haha :p

Sorry for the mix up.

I'm really hoping that this new series will have a great soundtrack mug like the previous series had. That was one great soundtrack.

Also anyone check out this week's chapter of Naruto?

I'm in complete awe of Naruto at the moment. Not the character exactly, but the whole story. I was able to get my girlfriend into it, and told her to start from episode 1 of Naruto. I have been watching it with her, and there was a lot I just forgot, or didn't perceive at the time of originally watching it. While there are plenty who say Shonen Jump just does the same old thing... The story of Naruto is something very amazing and brilliant. From where they started, to where it is right now in Manga form... is just a brilliant story of deception, love, and revenge. It has been a great journey over these years, to basically be able to see these characters all grow.

Talking about the Manga now. I am so eager for the next episode. I think many of us have been waiting for this, especially after what Bee revealed could be done with a jinchuuriki.

I'm also glad that the filler is finished, and that the Anime is back on track with Naruto and his training. What is about to come is going to be just epic as battles are concerned.

I was going to mention this a couple of days ago. I actually wrote the post but i remember a lot of people here are sick of Naruto, so i didn't post it.

The latest chapter just had be super pumped for the next one. The way it ended was so good. I for one have been waiting for a while for Naruto and Nine Tails to join forces. I think Naruto finally has the right abilities now to beat Sasuke's Susanoo. Then there's Madara, he seems to be the one to beat.

I agree with Naruto's story being brilliant. I know people give it a hard time but i think it is because it is popular and it is "cool" to dis-like popular things. To keep a show this good over 570 chapters is difficult. You don't realise it till you watch/read earlier episodes how much Naruto and the other characters have grown... well Shikamaru hasn't, he is still just the same.

Too true. I was so sick of all the fillers despite there being quite a large gap now between manga and the anime. I'm hoping they don't introduce another filler for a long time but I know that's wishful thinking too

Tbh I'm kind of glad that Sasuke hasn't been the center of attraction for a while. I really haven't missed his presence. I feel that his absence along with paying less attention to Naruto's persue to "turn him back" was very refreshing to the plot

Exactly. Most animes that are dubbed "classics and treasures" are pretty short. Naruto has managed to be just as good as the greats, but is so much longer. I think most people hated it because of it being popular, and at first, dealing with kid ninjas. I know even that bothered me a bit at first. I was always like, " These are just kids, it just doesn't hold water...". But now, how everthing has developed over the vast amount of chapters, is just amazing.

I'm really interesting in Kabuto. I beileve he will be a much bigger threat than Tobi or Madara, and if not dealt with during this arc, will be the main villian for the next... if there is a next.

no people hate it cause it's the same crap time and time again as it's your A-typical shounen series.

Have you followed it lately? And explain the same crap part too... I haven't seen a story that has used the naruto elements.... And there isn't any type of real DBZ type of power changes either.. everyone has basically stayed the same power, except they can learn new techniques and jutsu's.

Or do you mean by fights? Which is then only a part of what a ninja would do normally, and especially in the world that has been set up...

No i don't even watch/read it.

So you don't follow it, but you know for a fact that it's garbage? That makes all kinds of sense. And a-typical?

Atypical: not typical : irregular, unusual

Perhaps you just meant typical?

Anyhow, I've been reading Gantz and Berserk recently and I'm wondering if there are any series that are similar to those two? Especially Gantz, around the time the anime ended I thought it was incredibly stupid because it made no sense and left me scratching my head wondering what the hell is going on. But now that the I've read most of the manga I think it's amazing.

Yes, we have all been waiting for this. Really epic chapter. I can't wait to see what else is to come.. because we all know, there will be a naruto vs sasuke fight.... and after all we have already witnessed, we can only expect it to blow us away.

I have a question though.. what was the 2nd naruto for... You could see 2 of them inside.

I think one might have been a clone to be used to find the stakes in the others.

It was an epic chapter though. Soon as he knocked away those shots from Gai and Kakashi i knew it was going to be badass.

Still would like to see what Sasuke is up to because unless Sasuke has gained some more abilities (maybe better control of Susano), Naruto is going to heavily overpowered for him.

What thing confuses me is that naruto is a jinchuriki, with unlimited nine tails chakra ( now he can control him too ), on the other hand sasuke relies on its own chakra, which should be less than naruto's. And also Sharingan uses a lot of chakra.

Not really unlimited.. because they have to get used to bonding. The fox already stated that he can only hold that mode for 5 minutes right now. While he does have a lot of chakra, Sasuke has some pretty nasty tricks up his sleave. Would take a lot to dodge the black flames, and with his new protection jutsu, would be hard to actually get to sasuke in the right time. We still don't know exactly how well he can hold out with his new eyes as well... There is still a ton of mystery to this, which is just one reason it has such a hold on me.

Remember, Bee basically lost his fight to Sasuke, and he has a lot more experience with using his. And he lost to him before the implants, if i remember correctly... I may not.

one more thing, i think sasuke will kill tobi, like he did with orichimaru.

Would be sweet... but I am sort of betting on Kabuto doing that. Hard to tell at this point. Is Sasuke still in Tobi's world? Been too long since we have seen him. But Kabuto is after something that he can only obtain from Tobi.. It's either Tobi's power, or the bijuu's.

or rinnegan? because he wants to master all jutsu like orichimaru, and rinnegan is perfect for it.
