    He was dispatched. The leader guy assigned him to scout for any attackers.

    I think perhaps DB_Hunter meant "disposed of"??

    In any case, this certainly was an enjoyable episode, especially the introductions (kind of...) of the rest of the Akatsuki members. Two of them - "north" and "three" - look surprisingly plain in my opinion. Also, the Leader is clearly not the 4th Hokage. He doesn't even look remotely similar...

    Also, like Terra, I love Neji's new look. Just like his pappy~

    This description made me laugh.

    <@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs

    Sorry I had a context in mind when I used the word dispatch, which I didn't make clear in the post. What I was trying to say is someone should get rid of him.

    Sometimes we share speculations from back when we first read things, and sometimes we come up with new speculations that fit the current facts of the anime. It's fairly easy (in my experiance) to separate what's happened in the manga from what's happened in the anime since they look so different in memory.

    Lol @ Formerly Below: Don't spoil animus...

    Well that's great and all, but clearly the first one was most applicable giving the circumstances in this episode.

    Hmmm, earlier in the thread, dimitris127 mentioned that Zero might have been the Fourth Hokage. I was just thinking, has it ever been explained why he sealed the Nine tails into Naruto and not himself, like how Third did with First and Second Hokages? Besides making the story of Naruto possible. .


    (Just hit me that all the deceased Hokages are bound in hell)

    Besides the fact that "Zero" looks nothing like the 4th, it wouldn't make any sense for the 4th Hokage to spend so much time and effort collecting the Jinchuuriki when he basically was in possession of Kyuubi right from the start.

    I liked it better when all talk of the 4th pertained to him being Naruto's father. At least that theory is logically plausible.

    <@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs

    I'm pretty sure it was explained that the Kyuubi was so sinister that he needed to seal it into something pure, and there's nothing purer than a newborn baby. I may be mistaken.

    Nah, the closest thing we got is Jiraiya explaining that naruto was chosen as a vessel for the kyubi so he could harness its powers for his own protection.

    Anyone else find it odd that with all this sleeping Gaara is doing, his Jinchuuriki hasn't appeared? They made such a big deal about it before, and passing out from exhaustion shouldn't be so different from regular sleep which is when it appears.

    I think he's probably learned to suppress it? That's my only explanation.

    Yeah, I think Gaara has just learned to suppress his demon. He's at least able to control Shukakku's powers without losing his mind, so I guess we can assume he has a great deal more control over it?

    Doesn't explain why he's still got that eyeshadow on.

    <@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs

    Alas, he just wouldn't be Gaara with only the "ai" above his left eyebrow, now would he?

    The leader of Akatsuki, "zero," looks like shino to me.

    Shino wears shades to hide those eyes, and he has the same hair and hides his mouth with a tall collar

    Isn't it odd that Temari's brothers wear more make-up than her?

    No, the result of gaara sleeping is shukaku eating away his "personality".
    In order for shukaku to externally manifest, gaara has to go through the transformation first.
