Naruto: Post Timeskip Disscussion (Warning Intense Spoilers!)

[Platinum fan.]

As of now Naruto and Sasuke would probably be the ultimate team up, I mean with Bijuu and Sharingan they probably could take down the current Gokages in a five on two battle. The future generation starts with them, hopefully the other Konoha kids can catch up in the distant future. This war could have been the stomping grounds for the young folks to make names for themselves and so far only Shikamaru, Choji, and Ino have done anything on panel from the Konoha eleven kids. Neji, Tenten, Hinata, Kiba, Shino, and Lee have been fighting mostly off panel and Sakura has been stuck in her lame stereotype female nurse job.

As far as Madara goes, he is so broken that I actually would be somewhat disappointed if the Gokage actually do manage to defeat or seal him. Because so far none of them have shown to be anywhere near as good as this uber hax and for them to magically beat him when they can barely touch him would be insanely forced. Just have him disappear with the Edo Tensei's. Madara Uchiha...the real reason the elders wanted the Uchiha's dead.

I've given up on the other guys (Kiba, Shino, Hinata, etc.). I just don't think they're relevant anymore. They'll probably arrive late at the scene of the fight, and they'll have to organize a search party for Killer Bee, who I strongly believe will be captured by Tobi in order for the Hachibi to be sealed away.

Me too, and that's a shame, I'd like to see more of Kiba and Hinata in action.

[SharpedoX]

There's a chapter this week, isn't there?

[arceus03]

Nope, it's on a break.

[Durian Seed]

Nope, it's on a break.

What I don't get is why certain mangaka take excessive breaks. Kishimoto is not one of these people, but other mangaka, like Kubo.

They have, well most have teams of 4-6 folk who help them draw the pages/polish and edit, so why do some require or take so many breaks?

I absolutely loathe them to be honest. I used to like Hinata because I thought she was going to have her big moment during the Pain arc, but she got hurt, and then all Hell broke loose. She's useless. And I've never cared much for Kiba; he was like a second rival for Naruto during Part 1 who was completely forgotten when Part 2 started.

And no episode either.

Whoa there I don't like what you are saying here. Oda took a 3 month break once and he was sick another time. Same with Kubo, Kishi and most other mangakas. All mangaka work hard to meet deadlines as drawing and fixing 17+ pages of work takes a long time. Nearly their whole life is given to draw manga and some of them aren't as successful as the Big 3.

Its bad enough most people on the Internet read manga for free and never buy to support the industry but to complain that they take excessive breaks is going too far.

I dunno what wrong Kubo has done to you but he does not deserve the comment you made nor does any author. I'm one to always keep my cool but man did you piss me off.

I'd say they have a life too.

And idk, but most times the reason I see is that "the author will be collecting data" or something to that extent.

And no episode either.

Eh, really?

*feels guilty* Yup, you're right. And in some cases, well, the manga can be like very complex to think up of the plot, like Conan, but let's not bring other manga in here :P

Too bad for some people here Manga isn't available in the stores.

Yes and thats understandable but the people who can buy the manga and anime in their countries don't do it. One of the reasons Tokyopop went under along with a few others.

I do. The internet does not stop me from buying and supporting all the manga's I love reading. I currently have Naruto volumes 1-56 to show my support for the series and plan on buying 57 when it is available to me. If a Manga series is one I love I will support it and buy all the volumes.

[Ciccone]

So anyways, Naruto. As things stand, I don't think he has any jutsu that could defeat Tobi, so I'm starting to worry that he'll have to train again before he fights him. Hopefully "that jutsu" is the answer to our prayers.

What jutsu? The one Jiraiya mentioned when Naruto came back from training and we never heard of it again?

[arceus03]

I was thinking of the tailed beast ball but that one isn't really so special on its own. Maybe a tailed beast ball-enhanced Rasenshuriken?

[Ciccone]

He also mentioned it when he was talking to Gerotora right before he went to fight Pain. I thought maybe the Bijuu Ball was the jutsu that was being hinted at, but something tells me that the jutsu is something Minato developed prior to his death (probably not the Rasengan either though).

[stevendat]

Well if a jutsu is needed then I hope it's the flash step he used when trying to get away from the raikage. I mean he only used it once, though it could have been a have been a lucky incedent, and it was never seen again. So far what's been the only ways that madara has actually been hit? The paper bombs from Konan and the fourth's teleport rasengan but other than that I can't remember if anyone else has been able too.

[sam40400]

So, is Madara gone forever? I would've liked to see a full fledged battle between him and the kages.

[Shadow Lucario]

I doubt Madara is gone. I'm sure Kishi would have shown him vanishing with the other zombies especially since he was about to murk the Kages hardcore. If Madara is this strong how strong was Hashirama? And if Hashirama is even stronger than Madara, how strong was Hiruzen???
