Oh wait, before I go on.
SPOILER WARNING.
Okay, anyway. So it seems that Sasuke is the angry housewife. xD
He's all like, "HMF, OROCHIMARU." And Orochimaru is all like, "Lol." And then Orochi presents him with Sai, saying he's a little present to Saucegay. Hahaha. Yes. I can see the oncoming fanfics/RPs now. XD Anywho, I'm thinking next chapter Sasuke is FINALLY going to show his little face. Or maybe the chapter after. >__>; You know how Kishimoto likes to play his games. And I guess Sai killed his brother, huh? UNLESS... his older brother is someone else?
And WHEN THE HECK is Akatsuki gonna come back? T___T I like Akatsuki. I wanna know what's up with dizzy-mask-person-man. And yeah. =__=; Hrmfff. I dislike waiting for it to come out. It's so... tedious. Grawr. Oh vell.
Now time for the RANT warning. Lolololol.
I've heard some kids complain that they won't like Naruto so much if he has to go out and save the world and all that. .... well... what do YOU suggest he do? This IS a shounen manga, with depth & feeling of course, but nonetheless. Fighting is what he does. >.>; With people, it's either there's not enough violence/"truth" (-cough-dubhaters-cough-), or OMG he totally changed his style.
..... okay. Maybe he just LIKES the way he draws now and it's been a way he's been striving to get to for a while? And now he's finally there, you say you don't LIKE it? While I will admit, I liked the crosshatch shading and blawblawblaw of before, if this is what he's doing now, I can't complain. Just... gimme a chapter every week. T___T;;
And then there's the dubbed version. Which. I. Have. NOTHING. Against. I mean, seriously. Am I the only one who was annoyed of Naruto's JAPANESE voice? ><; His English one is pretty much the same. I had to get used to it before, so. Whatever. Let the kids get used to it on tv. And the believe it phrase? HELLO, dattebayou. And then the kids who DO suddenly know all about that try to defend themselves by saying, "Well, only the ignorant DUB version watchy people acknowledge BELIEVE IT!" ..... uh, sure? Maybe some people don't WANT to download in order to watch anime. Maybe people watch anime to WATCH it and not to read it? Of course I do love my subbed versions, but if I'm given the option, I'll watch it dubbed BEFORE watching it subbed because I want to look at all the awesome little animated details. Well, if there IS awesome little animated details, I mean. It could be really simply animated and hardly beautiful or something. >.>;
ANYWAY. It's not that you don't like the dubbed version. It's that you don't like the people who sometimes CAN ONLY watch the dubbed version. Ugh. UGH. That's what I dislike. And besides the STORY IS ALL THE SAME. AHHH. Oh wow, what a BIG difference. So they cut out the kiss (the first time it showed). Okayyyy. I was sorta mad about that, but then I realized I had to be CONSIDERATE to all the OTHER PEOPLE who were probably watching. As funny and silly as that is, who knows what crazy, distraught parents will do if they find their 7 yr. old son reenacting an otherwise harmless scene from Naruto. ...... >.>;;; There is a chance they'll reenact it, I've been 7 before. We reenacted everything to a dot, like mini actors and actresses. Silly kids.
Anyway, the reason why I mentioned they had only cut it out the FIRST time it showed was because later, when Sasuke was all like, "omggg owww I = ded naruto lol.... -dies/faints/sleepytime-" after he was poked enough by Haku's needles, they seemed to accidentally leave it in. You know, when all the little memory blocks pop up, hahaha. Yeah. It was there, and it was obvious. Oh man.
OKAY ANYWAY. And for those of you whom seem to believe that blood is what makes the program, ahem? Don't tell me you've only been watching Naruto for the bloodspills? If the network felt they couldn't show such copious amounts of bleeding, even from the nose, then they made that decision. o_O; I don't think it took anything away at all, my little sister was too amused at Naruto just turning into a naked woman to even NOTICE the people 'flying away at high speed.' That was pretty much all she talked about, too. @.@; "HAHAHA, DID YOU SEE? He turned into a girl and he was NAKED!!!"
.... hahaha, they were probably pushing the limit there. xD But hey, since it comes on at 9-10 (whenever they feel it should come on) PM, I guess they could. They DO show blood too. Just... not crazy amounts of it. I mean, everyone else was able to get the gist that Haku's heart was PRETTY MUCH 'sploded after Kakashi's Chidori. =_=; People aren't that stupid, haha.
SO THAT WAS MY RANT. Lawlawlawl. Enjoy the rest of your... day.
