If the 4 sound ninjas are the elite ninjas from sound, then i think the village of sound must be full of weak ninjas.

you do know what youre talking about, do you?

[wirm]

Admittedly Gai and Kakashi kicked the crap out of a whole lot of sound nins at once, but it is possible that they were mostly (if not all) chuunins.

The 3 sound genins that we saw seemed to be much better than the average genin, and those 4 weirdos stopped the ANBU pretty easily during the invasion.

Then again, I don't think we've seen the ANBU actually win a fight.

Listen, I was just saying I think the seals are slightly different or effect someone slightly differently in Naruto. I mean, Sasuke just goes plain crazy when he tries to use it(ofcourse this time around he got pwned and well ... you know) but I think what happens it enhances the selected abilities. Its only my opinion I drew up from what I have seen in the anime so far. We haven't seen the seal used to its fullest so theres no way there is a definte reason to believe they are the same or otherwise.

And ya ... I think the sound nin's are mainly weak for now because alot of them stay near the village to protect it. I mean, common your just starting your own little evil empire, its a difficult and delicate time. His plans could be easily foiled, ok ... maybe not but still. I think the four are like above chuunin but not quite jounin yet so there not as strong as they may seem, would be cool to watch them all the gennins just fight atleast one of them though in the next episode (I know I am stating the obviuse!).

[mangoman]

So anyone know what the knew attacks were? Remember Naruto saying he was going to show his new attack which we all know. But Choji, Neji, and possible someone else that i might have forgot.

[wirm]

We know that Shika's father was going to teach him a new technique. Since we've only seen that guy use 2 techniques, perhaps it will be that choking one he used in the invasion. But a jutsu designed solely to kill seems a bit out of place with Shikamaru, so it's probably something else.

As for Chouji, maybe he leared that multi-size move that his father used.

I can't imagine what Kiba or Neji could have up their sleeves, aside from being stronger or faster.

[Board of Command]

Rasengan will put any one of their techniques to shame.

[Saruto]

hahhaa ...ok! ..yes...your true....youy didnt even see the others technique and your saying this haha...

Don't spoil so blatantly.

[x hypz x]

lol, i read that before i realized it was a spoiler. =\

[fremeer]

first off people seem to forget that two important things were said on the nature of curse seals in this episode.
1. Sasuke has a level 1 seal
2. lvl 2 is much stronger then lvl 1 but hurts the body more and most likely doesnt look like anything the jounin has seen before. also is it just me or does at least 2 of the guys look like they have bloodline limit.

the 4 sounds used lvl 2 seal against 2 tired jounins. The 4 sounds are not that powerful they were used by oro to be shields and stuff. oro wouldnt want any strong jounin around so he needs to train genin and brainwash them to follow him thus no strong jounin.

[DeluxSkillz]

4 sounds are most likely on chuunin lvl, and yes they are not jounin lvl, seal lvl 2 gives them power close to jounin lvl, plus these 2 jounins are crap, put them up against kakashi and guy and we would've probably seen one of the sounds injured or worse

[?igma]

Damn, did they fuck the comeback of Lee up or what ><

[wirm]

Let's not be too quick to judge Genma or Raido. From the invasion, we know that Genma went head to head with Baki and apparently fought him to a standstill. We also know that Baki is no pushover after the way the butchered Hayate.

I'm also hesitant about what you said fremeer. What makes you think Orochimaru doesn't want strong ninjas around? Kabuto is freakin strong.

BTW, if I recall correctly, the cursed seal covered almost all of Sasuke's body when he took out the 3 sound genins. But during his fight with Gaara, it only covered up half. I'm guessing this has to do with how much power he draws from it.

In my opinion the key here is the nature of the curse seals. If my memory serves me, several times in the past Sasuke has been warned that if he is not careful, the curse seal will "consume him". I agree with wirm that greater body cover could equal greater power drawn from the seal. Raposo_C says we haven't seen the seals used to their fullest and I believe that is because we can't. If someone were to use the seal to its fullest, the seal would "consume" the user both mentally and literally, covering their entire body and killing them (somewhat like Lee's opening of the gates). Thus it requires focus and control to use the seal without it completely overtaking you. This could explain that when Sasuke was completely out of control with the seal fighting the sound nin the seal was over most of his body, where as when he was fighting gaara he seemed more in control of himself. He was controlling how much of the seal was released.

I have seen no evidence that the seal works differently for different people. If it "enhanced selected abilities" we should have seen Sasuke use his specific skills more effectively. All it seemed to do was give him more speed and strength. Useful, but hardly user-specific.

[kooshi]

I guess a reason why everybody has different appearances when releasing the seal is just for variation. I mean, wouldn't it be a ilttle boring if they all had the same looking seal?
Also, I agree with Wirm how we shouldn't judge Genma or Raidou quickly. You saw the reaction of that other guy in the team when he saw the two beaten.

[Artemus Sol]

I agree. The variation in the seals is likely of artistic design. Actually, I'm impressed how well they created 5 unique seals that all look good and are able to grow/spread in a fluid/natural way.

I was wondering if anyone had any problems with the new double episode released by ANBU-AONE. I used winamp and nothing happens and yet when I use bsplayer, it states that the file is corrupted or something. I just wanted to know is it the file or what. ^^ bye

[Munsu]

you probably have a corrupted file.... or you may have obsolete codecs


first of all winamp is crap... stop using it...

download the latest xvid codec or the latest ffdshow... both if you want

[Jessper]

I thought the announcement that Lee's surgery worked out was a little down played too but then again everyone knew it was gunna happen right? Thinking back on it, it might have been a waste of time to do more than that for telling us that the surgery worked...


Winamp runs everything fine for me(though to be fair I havn't downloaded anbu/aone's version of ep 110-11), perhaps it isn't winamp but the people using it and their machines? Codec update is always the best idea and go from there...

That's not a spoiler. How am I supposed to spoil if I don't read the manga? It rather looks like you just spoiled it for me and everyone else...

Of course rasengan is more powerful than whatever technique the other guys might have learned. Those guys aren't capable of learning such advanced combat techniques, period.
