    Backstory

    i was watching the series over again and i just got to the shino vs zaku fight. why the hell does zaku have a backstory? there are so many other characters in the series i would much rather know about than zaku. why haven't they done any backstory on the good characters?

    RE: Backstory

    Perhaps he wanted to show the relationship between Zaku and Orochimaru and then show how he sacrificed him with no worries to make Orochimaru more evil. (My Opinion)

    This sig was made by KitKat.

    interesting point... but I don't remember it in the manga.

    but maybe he'll come back. Personally I think his backstory was far too much like haku's anyways....

    he won't come back.... zaku and that girl from the sound kin i think were used as sacrifices during the destruction of konoha to raise the first and the 2nd hokage

    anyone have speculation who was the sacrifice for the 4th which was going to be raised from the dead but the 3rd stopped it in time....? u could argue it would be the other sound ninja shoot forgot his name... but he died in sand country

    anyways how unimportant

    I think your talking about Dosu... but he was killed in Konoha by Gaara.

    RE: Backstory

    Perhaps in a future battle orochimaru uses edo tensei to summon the fourth and there's this huge cloud of smoke and when it all dissipates, the person that steps out from it all is... Zaku! Who proceeds to pound orochimaru's ass. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

    RE: Backstory

    Ahhh.. Your right. I just rechecked, and Kin and Zaku were the sacrifices used by Oro. A moment of sadness since I realize Kin is dead now. She was cute, even though she had an annoying voice.

    Oh, btw, I remember some discussions ago that someone thought the Fourth was in the belly of the Death God when the Third summoned the Death God. After rechecking now, I just realized that the soul was actually the Third's soul in the belly of the Death God. If you already know this, please forgive my ignorance.

    So back on topic, I really doubt Zaku would return. It would have been better off with a backstory on Tenten or Chouji compared to Zaku. Then again, it might have been used as a model for all of Oro's men... How Oro was to them and how he recruited them.

    actually the sacrifices used to raise the 1st 2nd and 4th(that did not come out)
    were the kazakage and his two guards. i forgot which episode but the sand nins say that orochimaru used them

    RE: Backstory

    Yes, Orochimaru did kill the Kazekage and his two guards, but they were found dead somewhere else. If you watch the episode where the 3rd defeats the 1st and 2nd, you'll see the dead bodies of Zaku and Kin are revealed, hence they were the sacrifices used in the summoning.

    what they mean with that is that orochimaru used the sand village for his cause. not that he used 3 individuals for the summoning. it was zaku and kin who were the sacrifices for 1st and 2nd.

    Backstory

    actually.....there is sort of a minor relevance to showing a flashback for a character like zaku....but i wont explain that yet

    more importantly....its not kishimoto's fault for such a lengthy flashback. In the manga i believe there was only ONE FRAME that involved zaku's past. And it showed oro standing there beside zaku and taking him in to make him stronger. The anime just embellished on it to stretch out that whole match

    but zaku's flashback isnt just about zaku, but about orochimaru as well
