it was the arms of his soul that got sealed away not fomr the body he still had the arms if you remember but they were paralized. he still needs a cure for his arms..

[Iznogoud]

i&#39;m not sure about this i think hokage thought he couldnt change corpse if he had his arms sealed...so i think he only sealed the arms of the body&#33;

I&#39;m figuring that since all these &quot;jutsus&quot; require hand movements, that Saru thought sealing his arms off (which, incidentally, have a hand at the ends, go figure&#33;) would stop him from using any jutsus. Kishimoto has to do some serious explanation on how Kabuto transferred Orochimaru to a new body, because, sans use of his hands, Orochimaru couldn&#39;t.

Definitely... after Kabuto nudged Orochimaru&#39;s spirit in Anko&#39;s body (there&#39;s going to be a pornographic spinoff of this episode), he gave Oro/Anko a breast reduction surgery so that Oro/Anko wouldn&#39;t toss out his/her back.

That&#39;s the most logical explanation, right? http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/mf_laughbounce.gif

BTW, what the hell happend to Anko, i haven&#39;t seen her sins the preliminers, where is she? i couldn&#39;t see her in the manga either.

he was going to seal the orochimarus whole soul/body i still stick with soul tho since he kept his arms but orochimaru escaped the sealing i dont remember exactly how and i dont bother go checkin.

[Death BOO Z]

she was in the anime, ep 68, the anbu in the grey uniform, i think,,,

i&#39;m not sure why, but it just struk me one moment that this person was anko...

[abomb]

anyone else think it kinda looks like gaara? anyone?

[Raven]

This has been discussed before, but the general consensus is that it looks like Naruto.

[Insomniac]

when i showed it to my friend who doesnt read the manga he thought it was Gaara at first, then Naruto.

personally you can tell its neither due to the hair style, its a mix between Gaara&#39;s and Narutos - also the height is a dead give away

[Vagabond]

I don&#39;t get how oro can have his same eyes but not his same hair and figure. Shouldn&#39;t he be the same as he was before? Cause when he fought sandaime his &quot;real&quot; body looked like a younger version of his older body.

Well anyways, I don&#39;t think he looks as creepy and menacing as he used to. Of course i&#39;m basing this on very little since we have only seen part of his face.

[PSJ]

hmm i thought it looked like an adult version of gaara. but the eyes give him away http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/wink.gif its cool tho to be able to switch body but keep your creepy eyes... myabe it would be better for orochimaru if he could switch body without having his own eyes, he would be impossible to find http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/ph34r.gif

[Weiirdo]

I thought Sarutobi didn&#39;t seal all of Oro&#39;s soul within himself because he didn&#39;t have enough chakra left since he had used most of it up fightin the 1st and 2nd Hokage, on top of Oro. Since Sarutobi began draggin Oro&#39;s soul by his hands (cuz he grabbed hold of them or something) he started to seal Oro&#39;s soul within him starting at his hands, and then the arms and then attempted to seal the rest of his soul within himself but was unable to because of his lack of chakra...as I stated earlier.

And if you look at the manga a couple eps into the Hokage fight I think that the grey ANBU is more likely on of Sarutobi&#39;s former team members or something of the sort...I got that impression somehow, because of the masks. Anko seems to have given herself in to the pleasures of the human body and is naked at the hot springs... duh&#33;

[jing]

i dont think it reshapes after merging.
because remember he said sasuke was all beautiful n handsome blahblah...so therefore, he would keep sasgay&#39;s image.

[itachi_]

I think it looks like a mix between Kazekage, Naruto, and Gaara. He have not changed his body before, right? this is the first time, and also, now in his new body can he perform jutsus now, because his arms was sealed within his old body, right?

[sangai]

i think the reason that he&#39;s still all bandaged up is cause it takes time for the face and body to reshape possibly to oro&#39;s image thats why the eyes where differant

[_Sasuke_]

I think it&#39;s cool that he keeps his eyes, which means he&#39;s so evil even in a new body u can tell from the eyes http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/tongue.gif

[xtort]

I doubt that any &quot;reshaping&quot; is going on. There was some indication that this is his second transformation. In the fight with Sandaime, chapter 121, he&#39;s a young boy. In all likelihood, he&#39;ll just transform his features into his old self, even though he&#39;s in his new body. He&#39;s too vain to do anything else. http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/dry.gif

The first time I saw his eyes, I thought of Gaara; it made me really excited for the story in general. Minus all the Gaara/Lee bitching and moaning, I really hope Gaara comes back into the story. Either character would be too much for the story to lose. As much as Lee adds the likeable qualities of a person, Gaara adds the opposite, which ... I&#39;m thinking will change. Nothing like getting your ass handed to you for a shakabuku.

-xtortout

[itachi_]

And after that, gone?

[Hatake Kakashi]

Remember, Konoha is short on man power now. So she is most likely out doing missions, just so the village wouldn&#39;t lose face.

She might show up later, but I don&#39;t think she will have a big role, like she did in the Chuunin Exam arc.

Her name was mentioned around the time Itachi showed up though. Kurenai went to buy something for her, and Asuma walked with her to get it. Then they met Kakashi and noticed Kisame and Itachi, but didn&#39;t know it was them.

[PSJ]

the reason why so much ppl are hung up on anko is because the are hentai fanboys and think shes hot. its not becasue shes a interesting character or anything. no one wants to see more or morino ibiki you know the saddist. he is much more interseting than anko...

[XwingRob]

Well I think so many people are intersted in seeing Anko because of her history with Orochamaru. It probaly confuses people because you think someone who was so involved with Oro hasn&#39;t been around lately, especially since him being the main badguy at the moment.

[Hatake Kakashi]

she was just a plot device used by Kishimoto to introduce us to the Cursed Seal, thats all. Kind of a segway to get us to Orochimaru as the main villain of the series.

Other than having people drool, she isn&#39;t useful or needed anymore.

[PSJ]

she is probably helping old ladies clean or something right now she probably doesnt work higher than d rank mission, seeing that she got a bad back after carrying those boobies around..... lol just had to joke about anko http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/tongue.gif i really donr like her http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/ph34r.gif

[Kumiriko]

Odds are once Oro takes over a body he can slowly start altering it to look like his orginal body. i hope that wasnt suggeted already

Very good point xTort. It looks like Kabuto should now be able to change bodies as well. Kabuto also knows how to prepare bodies for resserection. Kabuto is learning a lot from Oro.

[jing]

by the way, this thread should be closed because of the title.
anime people doesn&#39;t know about Oro&#39;s new body. because the title appears on the main forum page, it is considered as a pretty big spoiler.

[Hatake Kakashi]

I can kind of see where this would be bad since, they don&#39;t even know he can switch bodies yet...

No one has came in and complained yet though.

[Uchiha Sasuke]

what body?
this one? http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/huh.gif
http://www.angelfire.com/comics/sasuke-sait2/Naruto_-_121_-_04.jpg

[Hatake Kakashi]

No the new-new one.

The guy who won the Battle Royale without breaking a sweat a few chapters back.

[Uchiha Sasuke]

err, can u give me the chap. number?

[moridin]

Perhaps the jutsus are sealed but the pain associated with his arms has disappeared. Remember when Orochimaru has to take his medicine? I thought he said something about the pain in his arms.

Edit: the chapters are 199, 201, and 202.

[Insomniac]

Anko appears at the 3rds funeral

[Uchiha Sasuke]

ooh, thx..he looks like naruto..but older..

[jing]

Actually there had been complaints. In the GW Suggestions forum. Why would they come to the manga thread that spoiled them and complain, I think people are smarter than that.

[moridin]

Uchiha Sasuke, the body is the guy who won the little tournament thing. Looks sorta like Gaara with the dark rings under his eyes. His body is also wrapped.

[Uchiha Sasuke]

u mean this one http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/wink.gif

http://www.angelfire.com/comics/sasuke-sait2/naruto_ch199_p06.png

[moridin]

Exactly. Any thoughts on the pain associated with the sealed arms?

[Uchiha Sasuke]

yup, i think that the pain in his arms has disappeared, but he cant use any jutsu with his arms...

[Kumiriko]

Thats good but yah. should have some sort of change

I&#39;ve gotten a couple of complaints actually... I&#39;m taking a few moments to step in and say &quot;Don&#39;t Do It Again&#33;&quot;

I haven&#39;t read up to this point in the manga and was pretty damn pissed off when I saw this topic revealed for ALL TO SEE on the front page of the forum.

&quot;Oro&#39;s new body&quot;.. People.. when you create a new topic..
<span style='font-size:18pt;line-height:100%'><u>DO NOT PUT SPOILERS INTO IT.</u></span>

I&#39;m cranky now..

I&#39;m not closing this.. because it&#39;s a good thread.. but I will change the name... -.- Someone owes me a cup of coffee

[snowball]

i think his new body will give him full working arms.

[Raven]

I don&#39;t know why everyone keeps saying that new body guy won the tournament without effort or breaking a sweat... he&#39;s clearly bruised, dirty and ruffled..... for all we know he probably only just barely won.

[Insomniac]

i doubt Kabuto knows exactly how to do it since Orochimaru did it without preforming ANY seals.

He just jumped his soul into his body or something along those lines, how the hell can you learn from that?
this is obviously a jutsu that only Orochimaru will do, its probably something to do with a contract too.

if anything Kabuto will probably learn Tsunades age jutsu since hes a medical nin

[Raven]

What age jutsu are you referring to? You mean the fact that she can make herself appear younger? Why would he bother, it seems to be a female vanity thing.

[Insomniac]

i&#39;m talking about the one that allows Tsunade never to lose in battle, her regeneration jutsu http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/tongue.gif

the side affect is shortening lifespan so thats why i called it the &#39;age&#39; jutsu

as for the pic that showed the guy on the table with the cloth on his head, thats not Oro&#39;s body, thats Kimimaro - Orochimaru never actually went into Kimimaros body but planned it.

Orochimarus old body before this new one was Saidame or something

as for him being bruised and battered we can tell hes abit dirty but we know that he refered to the competition in the area as &#39;flies to squash&#39;
and he did kill every single one of them so we know hes strong.

Doesn&#39;t necessarily mean he defeated them without effort.... &#39;flies to squash&#39; could have just been an arrogant statement - even though he may have had trouble he could just pretend he didn&#39;t even try just due to arrogance.

And we don&#39;t know he killed every single one of them.... all we see is a pile of dead bodies.... for all we know he could have just been the last one standing just through luck or co-incidence.

But yeah, I&#39;m not denying that he&#39;s strong. Oro wouldn&#39;t have used him if he wasn&#39;t.

[rockmanj]

now that i think about it, he probably has to switch bodies so often due to the fact that his soul has no arms, and as time goes along, the arms on the body deteriorate; i say this because the arms that he had on the old body can stillmove and stiff, but there&#39;s no chakra in them or anything, so they die after a certain time; as you can see in chapter 199, he moves his arms, but they&#39;re all decayed looking and stuff....any thoughts??

seeing that oro is called a zealot and after looking up what all it means oro is now just a being made up only of a concience. so the arms that were sealed were the arms of that bodys soul. thats why changing bodys would fix the problem. another example of it was told by kimi when he was talking about his body and how its his mind that moves the body and how he feel that he has touch the enlightenment that oro has because how he is controling his body now must be how oro controls the bodies he changed into which this would be the 3rd one.
