Official Episode 91 Discussion

[tensai]

yeah, it wasnt the same time when the thunder country tried to steal hinata - 1) hinatas age(which was pointed out) 2) hokage was shown old talking with the hyuga family (here in this ep he's shown younger)

i liked this ep, the flashbacks showed a lot of things that happened to tsuande and what made her the person she is now

Naruto finally finds out the name of the move he is learning, im guessing that he wont get rasengan 100% right, but he might come close enough. when he did it on the tree, it was both swirling and carved into the tree

Jiraiya said it was the second hokages keepsake, i dont really get what he means by that (maybe theyll explain later), but isnt the necklace the first hokages

orochimaru is twisted, but i dont think he would kill the little brother, what would his motive be
he wasnt after the necklace because he gave it back to tsunade
but oro mentioned that her little brother cant be recognized if tsunade saw his body, what if oro stole his face - weird but just my speculation, i dont even know if he developed that jutsu yet

so naruto and tsunade are going to have a rematch, i thought it was just a bet to see if he can master rasengan (hes getting a lot of different kinds of motivations to get better)

there not going to have a rematch. Where'd you get that idea?

[tensai]

well, narutos charging at tsunade (is he?) thats where i got it from
i dont know for sure

[ShinobiNeko]

Yeah , there isn't going to be a rematch, don't remember that ever being said, Tsunade just said if he could master it in the time frame he would get the necklace

[Wavaryen]

After thinking about it...



Why did she make a bet with naruto when everytime she makes a bet she loses? Is this some way of her helping naruto?

Well I'm guessing if she loses the bet then she will no longer have any more connections with konoha and can side with Oro, If she wins then she is obligated by the necklace to become the 5th Hokage(isn't strange that kage uses it kun-yomi in a combunation?).

[thundrakkon]

Tsunade does not always lose. She won right before Oro came. Besides, she does not believe Naruto could learn it in a week. Even Jiraiya said that he believed it was not possible for Naruto to master it that quickly. I think that she wanted it done in a week, to be at the same time as her decision making with Oro's request. If Naruto can achieve this "miracle", then she will have more faith in Konoha and the idea of a Hokage, and she will accept being the Hokage at that point.

[tensai]

interesting theory you have there, thundrakkon
i would have to agree with you on that

[zachary_milyardo]

thundrakkon's idea makes more sense than mine. I agree with him, at least I was on the right track with the hokage part.

[Z3nW4rrior]

I cant believe she's still contemplating Oro's offer, just imagine if she does infact accept it..the 2 of them revived would just die again protecting their village of Konoha probably at the hands of the guy that revived them, and thats if oro just doesnt turn them into mindless puppets like he did the 1st and 2nd.

Otherwise I thought the episode was good and informative, I really foresaw this much information being doled out slower than this *I didnt want it to but I thought it would be* So thats always a plus.

I think the resegan *sp* tehinique bet will be rudely interupted by another meeting scheduled on that same day.

Good Times ahead, Ihope

Another setup episode. Ah well, it's nice to finally see why Tsunade has a blood phobia and doesn't practice medicine anymore. Not being able to do anything for the two people she loved does put a damper on her confidence.

(Anime-manga difference spoilers follow...)










It's also interesting that the Tsunade/Jiraiya conversation was shortened a little. If you remember the preview at the end of 90, Jiraiya was talking about how hot Tsunade is and Tsunade said he was the only person she'd never date, and they do some more bantering. That's actually in the manga as part of their private conversation shown in ep 91, instead of being a joke segment as it is during the ep preview after 90. I guess they wanted to remove any implied sexual tension of any sort for the anime.









(Spoilers end)

[thundrakkon]

Wouldn't it be nice if Naruto uses Rasengan on Oro and gets rid of him once and for all? I doubt that would happen, though, but it is just a nice thought. It would resolve quite a few problems all at once. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

[zachary_milyardo]

I like the idea but there's one small hurdle called kabuto

[Freeek]

I agree with thundrakkon but I think he is going to achieve this miracle with oro shows up to meet with tsunande. Also he is def going to change the tech. to his own. In the intro it looks more fireball'ish. A bit of blue and red mixed [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I dunno I just can't wait another week. Can't they screen 2 episodes a week!!!

[ZakuHan]

I think if I devoted my life to being a medic and couldn't save the person I loved, and ended up covered in his blood instead, I'd prolly give up on medicine too [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img] I'd feel like it failed me utterly, after devoting so much time to mastering it and wouldn't want to give it any more time. But that's just my speculation.

P.S. What is with the obsession over Tsunade's boobs? In my opinion it just makes her look ugly to be so disproportionate with the rest of her body.

[ForgottenSpiral]

I just want to know why he didn't attack with his normal clone technique... I mean could she have blocked 50 Narutos with 1 finger? I understand that using the new technique works better to progress the plot, but it would have made more sense if Naruto used a technique he had already mastered. I suppose Naruto has never been one to think things through first though. *sigh* I wonder if he will be able to use both techniques at the same time later on...

[Scale]

mebbe just a dumb idea but the 4th tech is using your chakra and spinning it what if naruto calls on the dam fox and uses his chakra and makes a biger ball or well shadow rep and multi balls would also do

She was distracted a short bit, which means he had to go for a one hit "kill" jutsu, and kage bunshin wouldn't be powerful enough to actually harm her enough for the short time she was distracted. That would seem like a logical explanation to his usage of it.

[XForce]

And to all those who are complaining that Tsunade is being selfish, please remember that she is still HUMAN. Just because she is a strong ninja doesn't mean she is all of a sudden some sort of deity that is above simple human emotions of wanting back lost loved ones. This weakness on Tsunade's part only makes her more realistic and easily relatable to viewers and audience

[Saruto]

this ep was so nice!!!...common 92!
