Naruto

[Mixairian]

IT'S CAUSE FOR A CELEBRATION PEOPLE!!!!!!!





GAARA AIN'T DEAD!!!
You do know with that giant font size, the spoiler tag does not cover it right?

And, are you really suprised at all?

[TheVileOne]

I'm not surprised.

I expected nothing else. I called it weeks ago.

[oakzap425]

No, i'm not surprised... just happy...


and the whole thing iscovered on my screen... :confused:

[Mixairian]

I'm not surprised.

I expected nothing else. I called it weeks ago.
I know. You called it when I was messing with the people who don't read the manga. I don't think any Naruto fan that has read/watched the wholes series would expect him to be perma dead.

[oakzap425]

I'm so happy I'm floating

[Corinthian™]

**** spoilers

since I'm too lazy to read the Manga... tell me how it happened.. for what I know, the evil guys wanted the whole nine beasts, and since Gaara and Naruto has one each they wanted to rapt them, but if they capture the beast the container dies... so tell me what happened..

I might read it later as in winter holidays...

[Frank]

Well..
Garra got his arse kicked and captured and they extracted his sand demon which killed him in the process.

[Corinthian™]

people say he ain't dead:confused:

and btw.. what's Gaara worth without sand?

all of his 1337 ninja skills were Sand based and now he's without it... it's like Rock Lee without Taijitsu

[oakzap425]

No, I think he can still manipulate the sand with out the gourd using jutsu's...


That's what I gathered from the battle with Bone Boy... *can't remember his name at the moment...*

[oakzap425]

...IS it sad that I think a Live-Action Naruto series/movie would be teh awesome...? :(

[Corinthian™]

No, I think he can still manipulate the sand with out the gourd using jutsu's...

it's kimimaro.. and it was a sand mainpulate kinda technique.. it was still his sand...

[Corinthian™]

yes....:(

[Corinthian™]

*insert something Mix would say*
This last post is just to piss off mix:o

[oakzap425]

it's kimimaro.. and it was a sand mainpulate kinda technique.. it was still his sand...



But there was a part where lee was baffled , b/c Gaara could make sand from rocks and dirt.


I think Shukaku enhanced the power he had, plus giving him the kick ass armor. But as far as actual real ninja skills, I think Gaara has them, just not hand to hand combat skills. He'll definatly need some training on that, which I'm sure Kankuro and Temari will train him on, but as far as the other stuff, just a little more practice and chakra control, I think he'd be just as good as before...

[oakzap425]

yes....:(


...damn...:(

[oakzap425]

I just need to get this off of my chest...











Yondaime is so hot it hurts....

:o :(

[Jecht]

Are there any websites that have summaries and episode giudes of this show?

[oakzap425]

narutofan.com is pretty much the best site out right at the moment for everything but summaries.

For epi summaries... try naruto-kun.com

[oakzap425]

or even better.... naruto central is good too..

[Jecht]

Cool, thx
I just found out i just missed one episode and im also watching it in order!

[oakzap425]

What epi did you miss?


I hope it wasn't an important one. Which epi are you one now?

[Swordmaster]

Just getting into the show. It's pretty damn awesome

[deathshead2]

I must say as much as I hate anime this show seems to not be as bad as most of the crap,but I'm still angry at this show because they reaired the same episode isted of JLU.

[TheVileOne]

Naruto had nothing to do with that.

And did they not show 2 new episodes of JLU last weekend?

[deathshead2]

Yeah but I'm talking about today not last week

[rigel7soldiers]

It's above average, and it's interesting. I've read the manga up to like halfway through the Chunin exam, so I won't watch it until it gets there... My friends say I'm like Gaara. He's a walking mood swing, right?

[TheVileOne]

Yeah but I'm talking about today not last week

So what? Naruto was on last week two. It had nothing to do with JLU being a repeat.

[Corinthian™]

I don't think he'll ever get as good as Sasuke or Naruto.. or Lee... or Kankuro and Temari... he's sand boy.. he only does that.. and after that he will only be a sociopath...

[oakzap425]

...Question about the dub. After seeing the rest of the series...


Do you really think they'll be able to air it on tv... It does get pretty bad later on...

[TheVileOne]

Cartoon Network only has the first 52 episodes as of now.

And to answer your question, yes they will.

The show is a ratings monster. DBZ gets really violent and brutal at times. As does YuYu Hakusho, but it didn't keep them from showing either.

[Poeman]

screw this i gotta ruin this show for u newbies


Sasuke IS a Homosexual by episode 27

freakin oro!

[oakzap425]

But they didn't show all of Yu Yu, and there will be heavy editing come the chuunin exam.

[hippie_hunter]

After seeing Rurouni Kenshin get butchered up, I refuse to watch any anime on Toonami

[oakzap425]

^^ lol

[hippie_hunter]

What, no blood, shifting time changes, refusing to air the crappy 3rd animated arc, toned down language (such as Kenshin no longer calling Geinei a bastard). Toonami really toned it down and after buying the DVD's of the Tokyo and Kyoto arcs I noticed such.

However I will watch .hack and Inuyasha late at night

[oakzap425]

Inuyasha sucks in edit form.


Do you know how much the F-bomb is realyl thrown around in that show?! Inuyasha has a mouth that will rival any Sailor.

[TheVileOne]

But they didn't show all of Yu Yu, and there will be heavy editing come the chuunin exam.

With all due respect, YuYu Hakusho isn't as nearly popular in the US as Naruto is.

And did they really stop showing it or is it just out of rotation until they show more new episodes? I remember it was on fairly recently and they got pretty far into close to the end of the series.

I don't know what kind of edits they are going to do. So far the edits have been pretty miniscule and they keep in things like Sexy Jutsu and some amounts of blood. The potential could be there to eventually show uncut episodes late at night as they are now doing for DBZ, but that's really up to Cartoon Network.

[TheVileOne]

There really aren't that many edits to Inuyasha.

Adult Swim hardly cuts any of the violence or gore.

And Inuyasha is still pretty foul-mouthed.

Don't care too much really since that show sucks anyway.

4 movies and 167 episodes - nothing ****ing happens.

Well, from my observation. fairly recently was like last year...


And just because the show is popular doesn't mean they'll show the whole thing. Sailor Moon was popular, but because of the "issues" in the later parts of the series, they didn't show it. After edits, the show would have been about 10 minutes long.

We'll see during/after the Chuunin exam. They'll either have to bump the show to a later time, or not show the rest at all...

And it ain't just the edits that makes me feel this way. It's the amount of editing that they will have to do that leads me to worry.

...Inuyasha edited is foul mouthed? :confused:
The blood is toned down.
The movies aren't canon to the series, so of course nothing happens in them.
And for some one who dislikes a series so much, you've sure seen a lot...

I can asure you that Sailor Moon is not for a 10 year old boy to watch...

really.. Sailor Starlights ****ed my mind so bad it's not funny... I knew the meaning of Tranny Love to young:(

[oakzap425]

...Don't forget the lesbians. And in the original unedited Sailor Moon, when the scouts transfrom, they're actually very naked...

Okay, manga question:

We learn through the Gaiden arc what went down with Kakashi's claiming of the Sharingan.... but whant happened to Rin?

Just a reminder for everyone else. 52 ends the prelimnaries of the Chuunin exam.

They're missing the last 16 or so episodes of Yuyu which I've read the synopsis' for and have seen and feel they cheapen the series. Also Yuyu is on Adult Swim last I checked.

[Jecht]

What epi did you miss?


I hope it wasn't an important one. Which epi are you one now?
I missed the first one, it was "Enter, Naruto Uzumaki."
Was that an important episode?
Ive only seen two episodes of this thing and just finished the episode "Rivals? Sasuke and Sakura".
Question: Does Naruto show everyday where you live? Because it only shows once a week here in Canada, and it only shows in one channel.

Uh, this must of been as of maybe 2 weeks ago. I watch AS faithfully until about then, b/c I became preoccupied with finishing Naruto. As of before then, I'd never seen YuYu on AS.

Comes on Every Sat. and Repeats Sat's epi on Sunday.


I downloaded, which is why I'm current to the point that I watch when the Japanese watch every week, now.

Oh ok, thx :)

[oakzap425]

So, to those who watch subbed.


Think the fillers end after this epi?

[Mixairian]

Uh, this must of been as of maybe 2 weeks ago. I watch AS faithfully until about then, b/c I became preoccupied with finishing Naruto. As of before then, I'd never seen YuYu on AS.
It's either AS or that other time frame saturday night.

[oakzap425]

It's either AS or that other time frame saturday night.



...You mean, Toonami? :confused:

[TheVileOne]

I don't think it will be the end of the filler episodes.

YuYu Hakusho started out on Adult Swim. They later moved it to Toonami after the first season.

And Naruto will definitely go past 52 episodes on Toonami. The show is too damn good and popular.

People who think it gets too brutal and violent. DBZ gets very brutal and violent at many points, but that didn't stop Cartoon Network from showing EVERY episode on Toonami.

[oakzap425]

Epi 154: It was okay... didn't lead up to much. Hopefully everthing with be concluded next epi, and we can get to Kakashi Gaiden.
Manga 279: Made me so happy I wanted to scream. Gaara-kun is sooooo cute!

[TheVileOne]

I love seeing the Naruto fans squirm over the anime. Their fury is truly hilarious.

[oakzap425]

...what are you talking about? O_o

[TheVileOne]

The anime freaks are pissed off to the infinite degree over the current anime storylines and that they haven't done Kakashi Gaiden yet. They are whine, cry, and ***** over it and its pretty hilarious.

[oakzap425]

Oooh...


well, it seems to be a pretty cool story line.


They should be starting it with in the next two to three weeks though...

[oakzap425]

I'm more pressed to see Kazekage Gaara animated...

[TheVileOne]

Oooh...


well, it seems to be a pretty cool story line.

That's what all the anime freaks were saying about 20 episodes ago :p .

[oakzap425]

lol... no, seriously though, what do you think?

[TheVileOne]

I think Naruto is Naruto. And I will watch it no matter what.

[Swordmaster]

I can only watch it in CN...*grumbles*

Tonights was good...as usual

[rigel7soldiers]

I got a new Shonen Jump the other day.

I barely read it. Naruto was Sakura vs. Ino, and nobody I wanna know really cares about both of them.

[TheVileOne]

I can only watch it in CN...*grumbles*

Tonights was good...as usual

Yes, and the haters are continuingly rendered speechless at the greatness of the English dub.

Tazuna (Kirk Thorton) and Zabuza (My idol and yours, STEVEN JAY BLUM) totally nailed it. Both voice actors played Jin and Mugen on Samurai Champloo respectively.

[oakzap425]

Sorry. still a stickler for the Japanese...

[TheVileOne]

Hey so am I.

But every week the dub proves the haters inoccuous.

[oakzap425]

...No it doesn't. I still hate it. But not so much to moan and groan about it anymore.

I just put it on mute or don't watch it.


I don't like when people drag things on as if it's going to change. State your opinion and then, do something about it.

[TheVileOne]

...No it doesn't. I still hate it. But not so much to moan and groan about it anymore.

There you go. Not so much to moan and groan about it is what I'm talking about.

Soooooooooooo


After reading the manga current...


I confused on rankings again, I know Naruto is the only on that isn't a Chuunin, but what is the ranking of the others?

[oakzap425]

Sakura, I know is a chunnin, Lee is Chuunin, Ino is chuunin, I think, as well as Chooji, Kiba, Ten Ten, Hinata, Neji. Shikamaru should be well on his way to Jounin, Temari is Jounin, I'm assuming Kankurou is Jounin, Gaara... ??

[TheVileOne]

All the rookie 9 except for Naruto and Sasuke are chuunin.

I believe Neji is actually Jounin, though I'm not sure.

Naruto still seems to lack the leadership and insight level necessary for a chuunin promotion. I don't see him being promoted anytime soon.

[oakzap425]

But there is an exam coming up though, right?

[TheVileOne]

I think so yeah.

I believe that's what Temari and Shikamaru were doing when they were hanging around together. I think they are examiners for the next one.

[oakzap425]

Hmm, I wonder what they will be doing for their parts in the exam.

And I think Naruto will make it to Chuunin this time.

Is there a Jounin exam?

[TheVileOne]

I think there is a Jounin exam.

Examiners are the people who oversee and supervise the exams :p .

[oakzap425]

Well, I thought maybe they'd do something more interesting than that...

Gaara = Kazekage

Chuunin Exam is the exam genin ninja take to get promoted to Chuunin level. There are different levels of ninja. There's genin, then chuunin, then jounin, and highest level is Kage, head ninja. There's also the ANBU which are basically like a secret assassin group/ninja police force.

Has the second movie been subbed yet?

[Nightwolf]

Im interested to find out when it will come out too, how long did it take for movie one to be subbed after it came out if anyone can remember?

[oakzap425]

Umn Corinthian and I had this convo a few weeks back. He's a kage. I forget which one. I always mix them up.



I know he's Kazekage. Are you trying to say that's his ninja rank? That's a rank?!? Well, did he ever get past Genin prior to that?

[oakzap425]

Movie one was interesting...


Movie 2 just came out in Japan, so don't expect a sub until about January...

[WallCrawl]

[Mixairian]

I know he's Kazekage. Are you trying to say that's his ninja rank? That's a rank?!? Well, did he ever get past Genin prior to that?
Nope. Genin to Kage. That village works differently than Konoha. If you had been reading the manga carefully, the village is based on power. They've less ninja's than Konoha but their individual ninja's tend to be more powerful because of the specialized training and the lower focus on allies. They make themselves self-sufficient.
In short, he never needed to leave Genin. He was the post powerful ninja of the village and thus the role goes to hime.

[oakzap425]

...Well, damn...

[oakzap425]

I thought it had come out in July or August.



August, so yes, it just came out.

[WallCrawl]

August, so yes, it just came out.

In the old days it would have been subbed by now. :(

Yes.

Or you could stick to the imports you pay a fortune for :) .

Yes.

I figured. I remembered someone saying that the American versions will be released sooner than that, while the Japanese uncut would be later down the line. Had to make sure though.

[TheVileOne]

Actually, I've heard that too recently, so now I'm not so sure.

Like I heard they are going to release the uncut Japanese/English versions together as a 13 episode boxset for a reasonable price.

Or I could by half of the current series in one pop for 108 bucks, rather than 20 bucks a pop for 3-5 epi's a disc...?? :confused:

Imports are not that expensive.

Question: What happens if one of Naruto's clones gets hurt or even killed?

[oakzap425]

Question: What happens if one of Naruto's clones gets hurt or even killed?



Naruto clones Don't actually get hurt/killed. It's an illusionary technique. They just go... poof.

[TheVileOne]

Naruto's kage-bunshin clones are not illusionary or henge. They are actually REAL with their own chakra system. Kage-bunshin is type of kinjutsu, and they they are different from regular clones.

[oakzap425]

...but why not consider it an illusion... they still aren't real...?


What ever... nvm... sorry to offend...

[Jecht]

I really loved how Kakeshi(spelling?) owned Sasuke :D

[Alucard]

r they stll making new episodes?

[WallCrawl]

But they are real, that's the point. They can physically hurt people or physically manipulate objects.

[oakzap425]

yes, wednesday is epi 156...

[Alucard]

thanks

[oakzap425]

Epi 156 was rather disappointing for me.

When Lee pulled off the ankle weights and stated he was very angry... I shouted thinking Raiga was about to get his ass beat...Alas... it was a huge let down.

Neji jumped, and I thought there would be some making up... nope...

I'm actually rather disappointed with this whole Kurasoki (sp?) Family/Raiga/Ranmaru filler arc.


Atleast Tenten delivered ...hard. :(

I don't think anyone here has been impressed by these filler episodes. We're all just waiting for them to be over so we can get back to the main story arcs.

[Frank]

An illusion is something that's not really there. If they were illusions they wouldn't be ablt to hit and one or be hit themselves.

[Colossal Spoons]

Ok, so to clarify. They can affect other objects but cannot be affected themselves?

[WallCrawl]

Actually, yes they can. That's why they go "poof" and disappear after being hit.

After watching tonight's episode where they had to protect the bridge builder from the assassin and one thing was made very clear to me: THAT PINK HAIRED GIRL IS USELESS! Naruto and sasuke did all the work freeing Kakashi from the water prison and she sat there occasionally wimpering. My question is, does she know any martial arts or is she just the token female on the show? I'm really new to the show so I was just wondering.

she knows martial arts... but she's not the fighitng type.. in the end she ends up with a good role suited for her..

and actually, Sakura is better than Naruto and Sasuke in some things, as you'll see in the following episodes...

[Colossal Spoons]

I hope so, cuz she's dead weight right now. How did she plan on passing her final exam?

...Ahhh...

Good ol' Sakura-San...


Yeah... I hated here character with a burning passion in me ...similar to Gai-Sensei...

But, then, after reading the latter parts of the manga and watching the more recent epi's of the anime...

I appreciate her character more.


But Sabaku no Gaara will always have a special place in my Little Boy Loving Heart... :)

[TheVileOne]

Don't knock Sakura.

You WILL see her strength.

Not for a while though really, but yeah Sakura's great.

Well I'll be waiting. I hope she makes herself useful soon though.

You WILL see her strength.

hahah i know right

i had the same feeling when i started this show sakura was a waste but now
after all this time who new she would challenge a freakin akatsuki memeber with that old woman and win

[Poeman]

Well I'll be waiting. I hope she makes herself useful soon though.

no no where near the future is she gonna be a realy use ... right now where episodes on cartoon network stands, shes just a crazy horny charcter who fancies sasuke

[Colossal Spoons]

She is pretty damn horny.

[oakzap425]

...Umm...


Chakra control? I don't think they've shown that epi yet... but she's pretty kick ass with that...


And then exam time The battle with the sound guy and her fight with Ino, are signs of her strength...

[Mixairian]

No filler end in sight until 2006... How troublesome. :( Sucks for me cause I've been waiting for AonE too.

[Magma_15]

This show has been out, I kinda guessed that. Cartoon network is good but they couldnt make a show as good as Naruto. Is there any way i can buy the anime ones or look at the current episodes?

[Dark Carnage]

No filler end in sight until 2006... How troublesome. :( Sucks for me cause I've been waiting for AonE too.
Tell me that's just a horrible joke.

[Colossal Spoons]

How far along are the CN episodes; like how close to the end of the series?

[WallCrawl]

Tell me that's just a horrible joke.

Nope. according to the comment left by dattebayo on episode 156, it says:

"according to an interview with the director of Studio Pierrot, the filler arcs will continue to the end of this season."

that means 23 more weeks of filler.

[Mixairian]

How far along are the CN episodes; like how close to the end of the series?
There are 156 episodes in Japan. The Manga is still on going. The current arc is filler, which means it is not part of the Manga. It will continue on like this until Spring 2006 where the series will pick up where the Manga is supposed to go.

Basically everyone growing up by 3 years.

In the manga it's gone very well but I hope they don't fiddle around with the series and call it Naruto Z or Naruto GT. ;)

[Colossal Spoons]

Cool, I've never read the manga so I'll like this filler stuff.

[WallCrawl]

Cool, I've never read the manga so I'll like this filler stuff.

Don't be too sure of that.

[Colossal Spoons]

Aw, why's that. I've already learned so much by this filler stuff.

[Poeman]

fillers will be ok to the american audience overall, but 26 weeks of the same bs with no major villian is seriously dumb...
like they should do a filler arc on something meaningful
not something like tea country or the bug arc.. remember that

[WallCrawl]

Aw, why's that. I've already learned so much by this filler stuff.

You have yet to see the horror that is Naruto filler.

[Dark Carnage]

that means 23 more weeks of filler.

[Colossal Spoons]

Damn, does the filler get THAT bad?

[Nightwolf]

I've been liking them ok so far, Shinos team was a good arc, Negi's team arc is kinda boring but 23 more weeks of filler is definatly not a good thing.

[WallCrawl]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/Vegenom/Smilies/banghead.gif

Tell me about it.

[Jecht]

What are the fillers?

[oakzap425]

This Neji one is horrible. Neji and his team is too kick ass for this bull crap.

I really can't wait until they get back to the manga story line...

[Colossal Spoons]

Is the manga worth tracking down and buying?

[oakzap425]

x Cool, I've never read the manga so I'll like this filler stuff.


If you're interested in reading the manga, here are some great translations with scans starting from beginning to current... (http://groups.msn.com/NarutoMangaReturns/main.msnw)



:)

[Jecht]

Wow, thats awesome. Thx, oakzap425

[Colossal Spoons]

Well thanx.

[oakzap425]

No prob bobs... ;)


And just to let you know, in case you decide to finish it quickly (although it is long) or skip around, there will be no new manga chapter this week...

[Twitch]

I love you :up:

[oakzap425]

Are you talking about me?

[Corinthian™]

Are you talking about me?
obviously:up:

you rock our world Oaky... thanks for the link...

I just read Kakashi Gaiden.. and man... I wish that'll come out to the Anime Sooner:(

[oakzap425]

Well, hopefully when the fillers stop raping our eyes, it'll be the next arc...


I can't wait to see Kazekage Gaara animated. Although I do wonder, since I have skipped over some things in the manga, oif there will be some filler added in on that story line...

[WallCrawl]

Thanks for the link. I prefer the scans at Narutofan though. They're cleaner and scanned, which eliminates the darkness in areas not within the flash.

[Jecht]

Just noticed that some of the chapters are missing (http://groups.msn.com/NarutoMangaReturns/vol6chp4654.msnw). There aint any in the sidebar too :(

[oakzap425]

...Chapters missing...? I read all the chapters...

[oakzap425]

I love shikamaru...

[oakzap425]

Okay, so my brain has been discussing this for a while. (with no one in particular , mind you.) On the rold of a Special Jounin.

Is a Special Jounin: An actual Anbu memeber, or a former Anbu member that decided to step down, but when needed, is sent out on Anbu-ranked missions? I've yet to figure out the necessity of a Special Jounin, when it seems that either an Anbu or regular Jounin can preform the misson... :confused:

They are going to be doing filler episodes for the rest of the year.

Deal with it.

well is kakashi a special jounin? i know hes a ex anbu

Yes...I know he was Anbu, and I do believe he is a special jounin also...

But it doesn't explain for the others though...

Just go to narutofan.com. Their scans are better.

Bleach has replaced Naruto for me. I have read both manga's up to date and I've been liking Bleach more lately.
Why is it... where ever you find Naruto... there's atleast one comment about Bleach...? :confused:
Because they're similar on some levels. Story motifs and such. They're both very good series as well. In a few years if the series don't screw up they'll be dynasties.

[oakzap425]

..I read the first Bleach Manga, it was great.

Watching the anime on he other hand, didn't do it for me...


But I'll continue.



By the way, I know this is off topic, but I just bought "Kakurenbo" today. Anyone seen it? I know they are supposed to show it on AS this weekend...

[Mixairian]

Bleach anime takes a while to pick up... Just like in Naruto 40-53 are godly. For me, the series picked up after the first season ended.

[kamesan]

I only saw Bleach 1-5 so I couldn't make an opinion yet but I heard about 5 different people say it's OK so I might have to download that later (along w/ GOOD subtitled Naruto ep's).

Good subbing group. I prefer Soul Reaper but Death God is the proper term for them.

Bleach starts off more funny and light hearted and gets hardcore as it goes on.

[Poeman]

yupp you fans of naruto need to def check out bleach.. just know that the first few episodes are meh and deal with these 'hollows" kinda like evil ghosts.. but my goodness by episode 17 i was like niceeeeeeee

[oakzap425]

No one likes dattebayo subs?

[Poeman]

No one likes dattebayo subs?

[Colossal Spoons]

I have to miss this week's episode, I was wondering if anybody who's seen the subs could tell me what happens. It's the episode where Kakashi Sensei FINALLY fights that assasin with the crazy long sword.

Kakashi is able to use the sharingan to defeat Zabuza using water attacks. Someone claiming to be from the Mist village takes Zabuza's "dead" body so it can be confiscated. The ninja was actually Zabuza's protege and Zabuza is in fact still alive and he will fight another day.

[rigel7soldiers]

Did anyone see Tamtam vs. Terima?

Of course you didn't because they didn't sow it. Instead, we got to see Ino and Sakura talking each other up, while the coolest fight since ever was taking place. Godammit.

Also, Shikamaru is the coolest.

[Dark Carnage]

I have a question about 157. Could they have gone anymore overboard with the silly faces and stupid movements?

Who are these people that you are talking about? And why didn't we get to see them again...?


If it's in reference to the Tenten/Temari chuunin exam match...

That shouldn't have aired yet. And you got to see the whole fight... wtf... :confused:

Yeah.. In the manga you.. didn't see it at all. Hm. Sorry. I know it hasn't aired, but the thread title is "Naruto" not "Naruto eps what have aired in the united states."

But I don't really even care anymore...

[rigel7soldiers]

Okay. Fine. Didn't mean to ruin your whole day like that.

Also, that was kinda the only way I could rationalize my earlier remark. Damn, I suck.

[oakzap425]

Trust... it didn't ruin my day...


but you should re-read your original post, and see why I responded the way I did...

[Mixairian]

I still wanna know who Tamtam and Terima are. :)

you had looong time ago... I think it was back when you used to have your celibacy thread...

[TheVileOne]

The fan-girl thing is really freaky to me. When they write all the crazy fanfic, then they will write crap with Naruto or Sasuke getting pregnant with the other guy's baby. Nasty yaoi crap.
