And actually part #2, caring about age in an anime is fucking stupid since obviously the numbers are just "there". Dosu is 13 years old and sounds like Barry White, all the Konoha girls are 12-ish and have bodies of grown women. Seriously, who gives a shit.

Actually, all those who were "ninja" were genjutsu users, or atleast specialized in genjutsu. The family's genetics or "bloodline" gives them naturally weak bodies, but also amazing talent and potential in genjutsu.Originally Posted by Kraco
No but if they were fit at a young age, they would have the potential to be if the wished to become ninjas. Remember, not everyone wants to become a ninja.
You are right, I won't argue that, but you kind of dodged the real meaning of my post, which was to say killing a whole clan because a portion of the them (the actual, active ninja portion) could pose a threat wouldn't fit Third's character. It would give him sharpness if he had to sacrifice some ninja warriors, but civilians... I just don't think so.
The child of 2 civilians may want to be a ninja, and after they grow up they may pull an itachi on konoha, only they'll have buddies with them too.
I am in full support of whoever it may be who instated this policy, unless there was a way to permanently seal their power at a very early age so they do not get false hopes of being a ninja and then have those hopes taken away from them later.
**EDIT**:
Actually a better idea would be for konoha to make a breed of super-nin, something like the sand village did with Gaara. Except the sand village never had a trump card incase gaara goes Itachi on them, so ANBU or the hokage or some high level ninja should put seals or feed a certain pill to the super ninja, so that if anything goes wrong and they turn traitor, all you need to do is pull a certain trigger or simple jutsu and easily take them out.

I like to pay attention to the ages but I don't go so far as to for example look up blood types. Ages help me measure senority and what not, and their just pretty cool to look at.
I for one don't really check out their bodies. o.O
In my heart I know that Sarutobi wouldn't condone to the assassination of a clan in his own village. Especially after he spent like his last dying breaths talking about how much he believed in everyone in his village and loved them. o_O If the genjutsu girl (I forgot her name already?!) said this, I would think that she misunderstood and everything would be cleared up later in the series. But if it's not misunderstood and this was really intended to be a fact in the anime, well, then, bleh to fillers. D:

What's the difference between caring about age in anime vs in real life? Nothing, just some sickos like you who rationalize it's ok so you don't feel so bad about yourself.
Which Konoha girl has a grown woman's body? Of course they'll be lean and fit since they're ninjas, but I don't see any B-cups or child-bearing hips among these kids (not that I'm really looking either, you sickos).
Btw, are you and woofcat the same poster? Your effeminate avatars look alike.
I guess if you totally ignore that ANIME ISN'T REALITY, then yeah, no difference.
And calling your current avatar effeminate? That doesn't make any sense at all. Granted, you've had a million really pansy avatars in the past. But the current one looks like some kinda Rob Zombie wannabe.
And in Woofcats defense, the guy in his avatar is a total badass.
Besides which, the guy has a CAR for an avatar. Overcompensate much?
Closet caaase.
Silly Darth, everybody knows that having 2 avatars depicting men with long hair instantly renders me and woofcat the same person!
@terra: don't forget the profuse use of mascara that both avatars share.
About anime vs rl, keep telling yourself whatever you need to, it's still gross. By transitive property, that makes you gross.
@darth: Let's not throw any stones about avatars when yours is one of Dr. House. I don't know where to begin with you choosing that for an avatar.
For mine, that car's my baby. I haven't driven it in months since I'm overseas and it's parked in the garage back home.
Back to the anime, I guess you people are discussing changes in body type for the female ninjas because you hope it's leading to the end of fillers. Unfortunately, I think any changes you see in the filler will be purely coincidental on the part of the animators until after the time jump.
I am truly tired of this, Animeniax, if you wish to make useless, ineffective, unproductive, fruitless and worthless discussion. Then it's for the better that you don't post at all unless you have learned to discuss at a level of understanding and use careful consideration that is expected by forum members.
As well can we all get to the topic of this thread instead of making it another cess pool of thought?

:S 205 :S?
where is episode 205... :S and the ''special'' only took like 50 mins :S omg ... or is it just by me :S
If you watched the end of the special you'd know that the next episode doesn't air until the 19th... or next thursday.
And the special seemed shorter than 90 mins because DB cut out a chunk at the start. It was just the ps2 game OVA anyway, and had no impact on the plot.
Plus, 90 min is how long it takes to air, with commercials. Once you take those out, your talking like 65 min left.
DB should show the episodes WITH commercials, just so we can see what the Japanese get to see. The full Naruto experience so to speak. We might be missing out on some free giveaways or contests related to the show.
I hate commercials. All of my suspense that builds up through the episode would be gone. Japanese commercials aren't that great. Most of us would end up fast forwarding through the commercials anyway. I think it's a waste of HD space too. :/
aye. One of the pluses of downloading IS no commercials. I hate commercials.
Wasn't it the movie 1 special? Konoha's Sports
The special was about an hour, which is 3 episodes sans commercials.where is episode 205... :S and the ''special'' only took like 50 mins :S omg ... or is it just by me :S
It's episodes 202-204 because the episode in which they recapped the fight scenes was not officially an episode, so it wasn't really episode 202 like most people assumed.
Yes, it is
Edit 2: Stranger note, former episode 202, the Best Five Bouts episode, is now considered episode 202 again on Studio Pierrot’s official site. Weirdness.
Well, you'd like the episode even if all we saw was a black screen with the Naruto logo on it displayed for 20 minutes.
Anyway, on to my reflections which naturally warrant a semi-bump since they are so important. First off, the animals completely owned this special. Not only did I get a bird shitting on Sakura's face, I also got a dog pissing on Naruto's dito; I felt like it was Christmas! Wonderful. Those incidents summed up my collected thoughts on those characters.
Other than that, it was nice to see Kurenai in action even though the action itself was repeative and as stupid as ever (I will never get tired of Naruto's so called Tajuu Kage Bunshin consisting of an amazing 4 clones). Yakumo scared the shit out of me when Naruto fell victim to her portrait genjutsu. :S
Slightly better than recent episodes, but still somewhat of a struggle to get through awake.
