    RE: Chuunins?!

    its wasnt explaind, a lot of people (at the exam) seemed to be of the opinion that shikamaru was the best candidate. but to be honest i dont think they will return to that now.

    Chuunins?!

    So far, the series hasn't left us hanging with anything that was that important. The chuunin exam was an arc that lasted over 40 episodes if I'm not mistaken. So I'm sure at some point we will be told explicitly the results of the chuunin exam, even if it's that the results have been nulled.

    It's just a guess. I don't read the manga, and if I did, I would be enough of a jerk to fuck it up for everyone who doesn't want to know. And...uh oh...another argument on who deserves to be chuunin (off topic as it may be)? Naruto should. Most definately.

    RE: Chuunins?!

    it's as it was, the main battles had 1 winner, but anyone and everyone is considered for becoming a chuunin.

    For instance, just because shikamarou is the most qualified to become a chuunin, based on the criteria set forth from the judges, does not mean that EVERYONE else cannot be one.

    For instance, shikamarou is the best canidate to become a chuunin, shino is not as good, he lacks a tiny, itty bit, but he is still a good canidate to become a chuunin.

    Naruto is farther then either of these 2, and needs to mature a little more on his complete understanding of his win/lose scenario, but he has still evidenced both power, strategy, and comprehension of his scenario. He cannot be penalized simply because he APPEARS reckless, when he is really several steps ahead. He is also a canidate.

    Sakura, despite what everyone may continuously think, cannot be a canidate because she did not 'win' the preliminaries. However, if we continue to hold true to the 'everyone is considered' theory, she would be considered. I do not recall if it extended all the way back into the preliminaries, though. Even if she is 'eligible', i do not believe she has matured enough in her leadership capabilities, she does not inspire those around her enough, not near the extent that naruto can, much less strategizing.. and we cannot forget, raw power.


    But, needless to say, I concur that we must first wait for the 5th hokage, be it tsunde or someone else altogether, I do not think the chuunin selection is of priority right now. After the hokage is selected, or even before, you still have a upset orichimaru, and a nosy itachi.

    RE: Chuunins?!

    even if it is, it doesn't matter. They could say no one passed because they didn't see them fight enough. I'd guess a hokage is more important than new chuunins, and after the hokage is instated, the 1st order of business is Itachi. Chuunins will be announced prolly ep. 90-100.

    But even Sakura may become a chuunin. She did go on an A rated mission. Whats gonna happen is the new womankage is gonna be all womans rights and shit, and say: "yo! you resisted the sleep jutsu when a stadium of ninjas couldn't. you tied in your qualifications, you wanna sleep with sasuke-kun. Go Chuunin!

    Sakura can't be a chuunin because she failed the preliminary test (her fight with ino) and is therefore not eligable for consideration.....also she sucks.

    actually, she tied:

    you tied in your qualifications
    (its sad when you hafta quote your own posts... and remember how naruto became a genin? He royally fuxored the test, but in practicallity he was stronger than genin, by beating a chuunin.

    However, if we continue to hold true to the 'everyone is considered' theory, she would be considered. I do not recall if it extended all the way back into the preliminaries, though
    It doesn't. The reason they have the actual tournament is because they hafta have alot of judges to watch them, and diplomats from other countries. So by all rules sakura isn't considered. At all. But she will prolly be chuunin-ififed.


    BTW- Does anyone remember the judge saying "Sasuke, your as strong as a chuunin, kill gaaara"

    RE: Chuunins?!

    I think that under normal circumstances the only way to become a chunin would be to go through the chunin exam. However, the exam was a total mess and now the Leaf village is in crisis. I think they will do a batch of field promotions, like in the military. The new Hokage or the group that is temporarily running things will just say, "OK, right now what we need is more high-level ninjas. You, you, and you: you are all now officially chunins." In that case Sakura would be a good choice.

    I do agree that she failed her test though. In that case a tie in a fight meant a failure. If a tie was a pass she would have been allowed to go on.

    in that case, yeah i agree that the new hokage would do that. but i doubt he/she will choose sakura. although she has been in A ranked missions, but she didn't do much in them...

    RE: Chuunins?!

    If they decide to pick the 2 Chuunin's, then I think the only person that made the cut was Shikamaru. But wouldn't it be weird if they made him a Chuunin since it seem's that Chuunin's are no longer apart of a team so the Ino-Shika-Cho formation would be over[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img].

    I think Naruto most deserves to be a chunnin. He saved the friggin' town from Garaa, after all.

    RE: Chuunins?!

    You need a Hokage first to announce the chuunins.That's like starting the chuunin exam without the Hokage,just doesn't really work out.

    Good point, though I don't think that an official announcement would really matter much considering the state they're in. I'd think they could use a few more Chuunins. Assuming anyone made the grade. But holding to a tradition might overrule practicality.

    If you include all the buildup and the one month of training before the finals, the exam story-arc took about 50 episodes if you stop counting when the attack on Konoha begins. For them to passover the results of taht without giving any word on it is kinda cheap and unlike this series. So hopefully something will be said soon, even if it's to the effect of "We need a Hokage to make an official ruling first" or "They're still deliberating" or something.

    alot of things need to be factored in for a ninja to advance. naruto has the raw power of a jounin, but he lacks in everything else.
