okay JaySee, chill out there kid. It's a mistake anyone could make. Thank you for vehemently defending the idea that Chiyo and the old guy are not in any way or have ever been sexually coupled. This grievous error of mine has been repented for due to your graceful intervention. Thank you.

My first thought was that White Fang was actually Kakashi's father or grandfather, and the old woman though he was him because they look the same and she seems like she hasn't been out of the house in a few decades.Originally Posted by Munsu
If Kakashi is the guy she thinks he is he was probably, what, a kid when she fought him?
Anyway, the Akatsuki demonsucking device rules. The boss kinda looks like he's got Naruto's hair.
I'll say this though, I don't get their symbol names. It's literally just like 9 random words. What the hell do Boars, the number 3 and South have to do with one another? It just doesn't make any sense.
Where are you guys seeing Sakura with a ponytail? I'm not seeing it.

Don't know. And even if we did, wouldn't responding to this be the mother of all spoilers?Originally Posted by dimitris127
I'm also assuming he meant Forth Hokage and not Third.
Anyway, I'm hoping this guy doesn't really look like Naruto. Way to many Naruto looking people in the show already. It's an overworn plot device.

someone was asking why akatsuki doesn't fight using their holograms. it might be a technique similar to the mind possession jutsu that leaves their real bodies exposed and open to attack.
i really liked the episode. the pace on it was good. i guess it's pretty obvious that sakura is going to save kankuro since the old lady made a reference to tsunade being able to stop it. i liked seeing that team gai is still in tact. this really is setting up to be a big battle with a lot of good ninjas from konoha on their way to the sand village. things don't look too good for gaara.
i had the same bad feeling though, that Zero is actually the fourth Hokage... I mean, it feels like they've kept him out of the storyline for a reason.... and lame as it would be, that reason might very well be to make him into a surprise villain...Originally Posted by DarthEnder
i'm grasping at straws here, and I'll fucking perma ban the person who spoils anything on this. right now though, i think this is a serious possiblity

I think I read somewhere that the symbols correlate to the 10 zodiac signs of mythical chinese history...or something. Much of the Naruto series has elements from asian traditions and the like.Originally Posted by DarthEnder
Another interesting thing to note: Each symbol that appeared below each akatsuki is the same as the symbol on their rings....AND the finger that their ring is on is the same as the finger of the statue that they stood on.
Also, I think oro's ring said sky if anyone's interested.

The 10 rings are based on the first of these characters:
零: Zero
青龍: Green dragon
白虎: White tiger
朱雀: Vermilion phoenix
玄武: Illusion arts
空陳: Emptyness
南斗: Southern star
北斗: Northen star
三台: 3 levels
玉女: Jade maiden
These are based on my own translations so take them with a pinch of salt. I don't think these are spoilers for anything, but feel free to modify if you feel that they should not be in this thread.

i have a feeling they will succeed in taking shukaku from gaara and he'll be gald to have gotten rid of it. i just hope he can contol sand without it.
you sure his name is zero and not just his symbol?ZERO
This guy comes outta nowhere this episode and is pimp boss daddy of Akatsuki. I don't think anyone can doubt that this is the main motherfucker. Since Sasori and Deidara had to let him Darth Vader Summon Jutsu (through the freakin hologram!) to get that freaky Jinchuuriki Soul-Sucker for them, it clearly shows to me that he is A#1 Duke of Akatsuki. Plus his name is Zero!
symbol, name, whatever. it's clear that he's going to be central to the future of this show. at least we have something to call him, is all i'm saying.
I'd trust Psyke's translations more than others. The thing that strikes me is the two "Star" members with opposite poles. What does that hint at? Family maybe?

Well it seems that that really is Gaara with them and not a Sand shell... I mean I think its a bit of a long shot to expect all of the Akatsuki memebers to be fooled by that trick. Then again, the rest of them seem to be holograms and may not be able to detect such a thing unless they were in person.
I can't believe though that if it really is Gaara he's been knocked out for two days! I mean come on he a Jinchuuriki and the Kazekage, and after so long he still hasn't recovered?? Something's not right or this is a bit unrealistic even for the anime.
The Zero guy being Yondaime? Come on this is a bit far fetched. The guy's soul was consumed by the sealing jutsu he performed on Kyuubi, how the hell did he get out? If he did manage to escape then that means that Sandaime could return as well. Which sounds to unreal.
And we finally get to know who Zetsu is via the non-spoiler method. He looks kinda creepy, with that fly trap thing and all. I think that he needs to be dispatced ASAP by someone. By the way anyone else think the sound that is made when Akatsuki members perform a handseal seems straight from a Looney Toons cartoon?
The re-enforcements should be good. Would be nice to see Neji and Rock Lee fight again. Can't quite figure out how the action will start from this point, but my hunch is that what Akatsuki have really is a sand shell and not Gaara. If that's the case I think they are gonna come rushing back to Sand in not too happy a mood.
Yeah, I kept thinking the same thing during this whole episode: Unless Sasori injected some drug into Gaara, there's no way he would sleep all that time. Well, I suppose we will learn the truth sooner or later. Hopefully, or it will become as a plot hole.
It would be very disappointing if it wás Gaara that is being sealed..I was hoping to see more Shukaku scenes. After 2 days Gaara should've recovered as said above somewhere.
The Thing with Chiyo and Kakashi:
I just watched the scene again, and you can clearly see Kakashi freezing and looking shocked when he sees Chiyo. So the White Fang would be Kakashi.. dunno why Chiyo's so pissed at him, but we'll see that next week.
I hope that the 'curing Kankurou' part will not take the whole episode.. the pacing of this epidode was great, and It would be a shame to kick it back again.
Is it just me, or does it look like there hasn't been one 'budget episode' yet? The art looks good and I haven't seen any deformed heads or something.
I also love the Akatsuki theme
I dont know if other translations have a feminine connotation like this one but, it wouldnt be farfetched to say there's at least 1 female Akatsuki member.Originally Posted by Psyke
I'm pretty sure Naruto has been knocked out for days as well. It's no plot hole.
