I was actually thinkingn they are Sasuke-tards like Kishimoto.
Though that's just a Kuboing in my part.
Its probably just that if you are playing solo your profile looks bigger. But it looks out of place and lame (and not because its Sasuke... but because it breaks the symmetry)

The dudes playing kinda sucked
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Indeed, but it was nice to see some gameplay finally. I'm also glad they specified that Lars would actually be playable in the game. People were thinking that only his costume would be in the game.
The best news of all in my opinion, was the inclusion of a story mode. That's one thing that was missing from the first one that I really wanted. I'm glad that you don't only use Naruto in it and get to live out the story as two others. It should be interesting.
YouTube took it down. So here's the original.
Naruto vs Kakashi Gameplay (4:57)
The lighting effects for Naruto's Rasengan looks funny/weird, but I like the Water Dragon Bullet (Suiryudan) technique. Hope that's a multiplayer move.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
The lower screen with Itachi and Sasuke reminded me of this...
Lol I didn't want to say it myself :P.
Good too see that there will plenty of epic boss battles though.

Blurry Hidan & Kakuzu Scan
What it says.
Kakuzu is bad-tempered, money-obsessed miser. He can detach his arms and control them through a mass of tendrils, and he can also control the tendrils themselves. He has five hearts, and every single heart must be destroyed for him to be killed and each heart has a different elemental jutsu.
His awakening will be Thread Mode or Shinzo Mode.
Jutsu: Wind Style: Pressure Damage. Kakuzu’s wind-affinity heart shoots a blast of wind that knocks opponents backward into the air.
Light Style: False Darkness. Kakuzu’s lightning affinity heart electrifies the ground in front of him.
Fire Style: Searing Migraine. Kakuzu summons several of his hearts, trapping his enemy with Lightning Style: False Darkness, then shoots a giant fireball.
Ultimate Jutsu – Earth Grudge: Final Shot. Kakuzu elongates his arms, grabs the enemy and throws them in the air. He then transforms his arms into a giant cannon and blasts his enemy with a massive triple-element attack.
--
Hidan is an immortal and wields a three-bladed scythe attached to a long metal cable. He is a devout follower of the bloodthirsty Way of Jashin and takes great pleasure in inflicting pain upon his opponents.
His awakening will be Ritual Jashin Mode.
Jutsu – Soul Hunt. A combo where Hidan does a forward flip followed by a devastating downward slash with his triple-bladed scythe.
Ultimate Jutsu – Curse Jutsu: Death Possession Blood Hidan draws the Jashin symbol on the ground and then attempts to ensnare his opponent. If he succeeds in linking his body with his opponent’s, he cackles and impales himself with a spike, inflicting damage on them through their connection.
Hidan should have unlimited HP
Kakuzu's combos sound weird on paper, so here's hoping they turn out fine in practice.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
awesome new trailer that also shows some kakuzu/hidan.
I love how packed with Boss battles this game will be, the jiraiya/pein fight and gaara vs deidara look freaking awesome (especially gaara).
Also I like how even though they don't use any of the shows music, cc2's music is still totally recognizable as naruto and even better then the shows at times.
Lars looks pretty great too.
-----------------
The slowdowns in the fight vs Sasori's 100 puppets looks pretty legendary
I was wondering why it looked so familiar to me. Then I realized it was the E3 trailer that I posted in post 225.
