Age limit? You kidding me, you can get beer out of vending machines in japan. VENDING MACHINES!!!!!
EDIT: Proof that I'm not Lying
I am HAPPY for the above post ^^
omg so that explains the sick mind of the japanese people, when you can get beer at any age you probably got some six year olds runnin around wasted all the time
heh lets get bacck on topic.....
I think Kishimoto saved this arc in this chapter. The drunken boxing thing is ingenious. Not only does it enables Lee to fight on par with it kimimaro but the alcohol probably helps him tolerate his injuries. Good job. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
I'd kinda guess that, the strict way kids are raised in Japan, they won't drink on their own, even if nobody is looking. Besides, they're all freaked out with getting good grades at school, and have around 2,000 kanji to learn at that age... Then again, I'd have to be drunk to start understanding kanji, but it's just me...
yep he'll probably collapse after the battle and then he'll be on medication for a while and then he'll be fully healed
He will most likely use a combination of Drunken Boxing and the Drunken Fist Kungfu technique. Both are highly unpredictable, normally this wouldn't be a big deal, but in the hands of someone as skilled as Rock Lee, it will yield some great results.
211-212 would be so great when they come out.
Damn, the waiting period sucks.

Rock *hic* Lee *hic* ROCKS more then I thought...
Rocky on the rocks... hrrrrr, that was baaad.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
One thing is for sure, Lee can't drink much alchohol, he drank a tiny bottle, and got drunk. The fact that it was all an accident makes it even more hilarious! LOL
That tiny bottle looked big enough to hold about 8-10 shots. Sake can be anywhere in strength from very light beer, 4% alcohol, to very strong vodka or stronger (60%+). 10 shots of vodka would drop any 14 year old that _I_ know.
I've really liked the past several issues. That's probably because my three fav characters, Naruto, Shika, and Lee, were in them. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] The arc has returned from the gaping chasm of utter predictability to the wacky, zany mess that it was in the beginning, which I love. As much as this is an "action" genre manga and anime, it's also a comedy. Where would this be w/o Sasuke and Naruto locking lips in the beginning, all the interplay between "Fuzzy Eyebrows" and Sakura, who spurns his affections, and Come Come Paradise? I'm glad to see Kishimoto remembered what made his series endearing in the first place.
-xtortout
ever heard of drunken style marital arts??? lee is the sort of character that pays homage to the kung fu stars of cinema.

LMAO!! Kudos to Kishimoto for really laying on the surprise with this chapter. I'm sure he had really enjoyed making this chapter for Ss and Gs<g>
God _damn_. drunken boxing by accident.. This is going to get really good <bg>
You know, i'm starting to think that gumabunta (sp) might make Lee his master instead of Naruto, since Lee's more "willing" to drink <vbg>
Oh, wow, that was amazing! And it actually works! One of the things left out of the translation was the part where Lee was fighting Kimimaro the first time...he talks about how none of his kicks are landing, and Kimimaro tells him he's coming on too straight. Looks like the sake's going to fix that one!
Overall, though, the translation above pretty much gets it all in the bag. Tsunade's reasoning for not sending a Jounin team is that right now Konoha is losing it's power as a large country, and in order to uproot (she actually uses this word) potential threats from within and outside of the country, they are mobilizing the Jounin and Chuunin. One of the Jounins (not the guy with the toothpick) says that maybe they should go after Orochimaru as part of that threat; Tsunade responds that if you think about it carefully, they already are.
As for the surgery, the only thing missing is that Tsunade says Lee needs a day of rest, so he can start tomorrow.
The stuff he's missing from Guy's conversation is pretty trivial; Lee accidentally mistook a glass of 'Ochoko' sake (probably chocolate flavored) for water and then proceeded to trash the place; Guy laments saying "If I had noticed...."
Oh, and age limit in Konoha is 20; we know because Naruto talks about it when Jiraiya gives him the guidelines for being a "proper ninja", including not chasing after women and not drinking sake...Naruto says something along the lines of "I'm not even 20 yet, so what does that matter?!"
Overall a hilarious chapter! I'm sure Lee's going to run into some problems after not resting like he should have, but the drunken boxing (which Guy says he is incredible at) is going to be way too much fun to watch. I also love how Lee's speech changed completely after a sip of sake! He goes from polite-form addressing and apologizing to his opponent with utmost respect to slurring his words and using rough slang and dialect. Brilliant!
