    Sannins and age

    Well, this really isn't a question or anything, but one of the locked Forum threads(who taught Kakashi) said something about how the Sannins(except Jiraiya) have techniques to avoid death/look young. Orochimaru using his jutsu to swap to a new body and Tsunade using a henge to disguise her age.

    Anyway, I just wanted to mention that in Japanese mythology, the Gama-Sennin(toad master) is thought to be a sage/monk who possesses the secret to immortality. So, maybe Jiraiya's holding out on everybody? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

    If he does know it, it's probably gonna be something like "staying young at heart will keep you youthful forever." [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

    first of all, tsunade's technique isn't henge. it's a completely different technique. that's all i will say.

    jiraiya isn't holding back on anything.

    Sannins and age

    jaraiya is jaraiya. he's not holding on anything that we know yet, but i highly doubt that he is holding on any age jutsu.

    RE: Sannins and age

    yeah... kay. that... would totally explain it...

    anyways... they probably changed it around abit, so they could make Orochimaru and Tsunade more reclusive.... Jiraiya is reclusive too, but he's an actual hermit, so he didn't need to disguise his age.

    RE: Sannins and age

    In one of the japanese mythology threads we had, there was this link that said that Jiraiya eventually became Orochimaru, so they're supposedly the same person. I doubt that this anime is going to go that route, so he's probably not holding any age techniques back.
    "You are not free whose liberty is won by the rigour of other, more righteous souls. Your are merely protected. Your freedom is parasitic, you suck the honourable man dry and offer nothing in return. You who have enjoyed freedom, who have done nothing to earn it, your time has come. This time you will stand alone and fight for yourselves. Now you will pay for your freedom in the currency of honest toil and human blood."

    from what i read, jiraiya and tsunade had a love affair and orochimaru was some evil guy that wanted something. so he and jiraiya fought, i could be wrong tho....

    No. You're not wrong. Whoops! Pretty big blunder on my part. Here's the link to what I was talking about, and what pervert was correctly talking about: http://www.kiseido.com/printss/ji.html. It's borrowed from the "Origin of Jiraiya in Japanese Mythology?" thread.

    Jay Leno looks weird. He looks kinda like John Kerry, who also happens to look...fugly.

    Crap. Just do a search for the thread. It works from the original. Don't know why it's not working here.
