Were we watching the same fight. They didn't even need to try to stretch things out, Hidan was doing that all by himself. The guy is a complete sadist so once he has you caught in his jutsu he tries to make you suffer for as long as possible. From the very first time we saw him, Kakuzu was complaining about how he drags out his fights.

Really, the only thing that could have drawn out this fight is if Shika had more of a Chakra reserve and held Hidan there for 20 more minutes. But come on, he could have held him there for an hour and the writers would have made backup come then. They would have cited 'traffic' as the reason for being so late.
When all this is done, Kakuzu should knock off Hidan's head and sell his body
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
And sew his head on a broom or someting
for what? sex?Originally Posted by Buffalobiian

LOL, for the bounty. But Your idea of sex with a guy's head on a broom is one weird fantasy. What was the criteria for being a moderator again on these forums?!?
I'm kidding...lol, you must be thinking, couldn't this kid go back to 4 more years of trolling, lol...
He is talking about the body not the head. Wait why the hell am I even responding to this nonsense.
Anyway Hidan's body should be pretty valuable, because everyone would want to know how his immortality works.

Plus I think all of Akatsuki members are S-rank criminals, so they're all wanted and probably have bounties.
I meant drag out by fighting more defensively. If you ask me, they were trying to kill him quite hastily. Normally Shikamaru wouldn't exhaust all his chakra like that without saving some for Kakuzu.
They only thing that would have saved him would be to completely annihilate Hidan's head, but that plot surpise had to happen. So nothing could have been done there.
Logically they should have run away towards their reinforcements the moment they realised they couldn't aliminate one of the two to even the odds. It's also madness to believe super villains when they say they will fight one by one.
Except if you leave Hidan alone, he'll just stab himself in the heart, like he did in the ep.

I will still always wonder why slowly scraping a guys foot through the dirt won't erase the line of the symbol on the ground.
He can stab all he wants if he doesn't have your blood. That point would have been kind of late in any case already. Like I said, team Asuma should have made their escape the moment they realised they are still facing two Akatsuki members, not one. It's as if Asuma had a death wish all along. Maybe he really thought there's something more glorious in dying for something you believe in than living for it. What a twisted and sad man, especially after all the lectures he gave Shikamaru.
when I saw Shikamaru moving his foot like this, I thought he was going to erase the circle with his (make that HIdan's) foot... but then he said that he wants to move him out of it - *durrrrrr*
but oh well.... maybe it's some magical circle which can't be erased easily I don't really have a problem with that.. maybe it's somehow "chakra infused" and it becomes fast drying paint ^^
well even his team members were suggesting that they should retreat... but it seems Asuma thinks that they will catch up sooner or later anyway and then they will have the disadvantage...Like I said, team Asuma should have made their escape the moment they realised they are still facing two Akatsuki members, not one. It's as if Asuma had a death wish all along.
Asuma said something like "they won't let us get away so easily, if we run now they will wipe us out"
however his talk about konoha after that didn't even make the slightest sense
"and konoha will be in even greater danger, it's like sending a single unit to break the lines"
what the fuck? what frontlines? It's not like they try to destroy their "formation"
I could have understand it if he said that they have to keep them here until reinforcements come, because otherwise they need to search for them again and they will reach konoha before they can find them...

Indeed the later part of what Asuma said didn't make sense but its just this simple. Asuma knew that the reason they took Chiriku's body was because Chiriku had a bounty on his head and Asuma knew his bounty was even bigger. So if it was anybody else they could have run away and Hidan and Kakuzu probably wouldn't have cared but they were definitely going to go after them if they tried to run.
So he had only two options, try to run knowing that they would get caught since we already saw that they were faster than Asuma and his team were, not to mention turning your back on your opponents is back etiquette, or try and hold your own until back up arrived.
I'm really ashamed of you guys, all trying to make Asuma look bad instead of just accepting that Asuma and his team ran into opponents that were just superior to them and were simply outmatched. Besides you all seem to be forgetting that Tsunade sent them on a mission to capture and or kill the Akatsuki so they had to at least try and people die on missions all the time. Thats just part of being a ninja.

There was a third option. Asuma could have run in one direction, the three chunnins in the other.
...And then we wouldn't get to hear his last words.
How do you defeat someone who is better, stronger, faster, and smarter? AND more experienced to boot. Asuma knew this, and realized retreat was not an option, sometimes you can come up with the best strategy and still fail. I think he continued the fight to gain information, but even that really don't seem like a big deal. He stands in a cirle and owns you. But i'm not convinced Asuma's dead. Its Naruto... I mean Sakura could show up and put a super heal on him, or even INO, i think she was training for that if i'm not mistaken. To think that he is dead don't make sense, if he is, I'm floored...
Nothing personal, but that statement is pure fail. In that situation you figure out how to get the hell out, not stand around in the hope you might learn something. Even if you did, you wouldn't be alive to convey it anyone. And if you are they strongest of your group and you won't live, you forget about your team being able to get away with the info.
That is true, but I do think that Asuma was banking on the other squads showing up. Not to mention all that talk about Shogi, he knew the risk of putting himself out there. I think that it was a wise choice considering it was technically 4v1.
