Chouji, Neji, and Kiba.....DEAD!?

[Kagemane_no_Jutsu]

Isn't it funny how everyone thinks Chouji and Neji are dead in the Anime forum. I mean they did make the endings of their fights a little more dramatic but when I was reading the manga I knew for sure they wouldnt have all died. Especially Neji since he is such a beloved character. They never actually showed them dying, just falling unconcious. For the spider guy that Neji just beat, you knew for sure he was dead because of the heart that stopped beating. But well I guess the question is, did you actually think they would kill off Chouji, Neji, and Kiba like that? Personnaly I thought Shikamaru might have died from that broken finger.

well then you must not have participated in this forum much when we were there in the manga.....
cause nobody here knew for sure if neji and chouji were gonna live either

[Jman]

back then i too wasn't sure that chouji would've made it back alive (wished he died, but that's another story). But anyhow way way back I remember people thinking that Sasuke was dead when he passed out during the fight with Haku.

Oh I guess I missed that then jing.

i didnt doubt that they would live. it was mostly discussion about why ppl wanted chouji to die but not neji. no one discussed all that much about weather or not they would survive.

i wanted them both to die even though i like neji. but all things considered anyone dying during this mission would have resulting in shikamaru quiting... because... well... hes a quiter. when you really think about it when everyone was saying that choujis death would further shikamarus development no one took into consideration that shikamaru would quit. and personally i still think that as long as neji is alive hinatas growth potential is null. sigh... the last chapter of the actual storyline proves that hinata will remain a useless character.

well i thought chouji was going to die, and a slight possibility to kiba but i really didn't think much of kiba, but i didn't think neji was as i think his character has just been renewed and this is the first mission we see from him or something big for his character that we see since the chuunin exams.

i thought chouji would have been the one to die, but he lived, well all did but, yeah.

[kAi]

actually with him quitting would've been development he would have gone all sulky and what not, but then being able to recover from that with his friends and yada yada

[Mut]

what the hell. my time machine worked.

[RasenDori]

... wtf? ...

[basey44]

quiet, dont annoy him. if his time machines working now he might go back and fuck ur mum, making himself ur daddy

[Kagemane_no_Jutsu]

Riiiiiiight.

[PSJ]

good one, first time in a while that i laughed out loud reading on the forums. i didnt concider growth potentials or anything i just said if one dies both dies(chouji and neji)

[Deblas]

nope, theyre alive

[Terracosmo]

I thought Chouji would die. I didn't think Neji would, though.

[Raven]

I just ... didn't care. I took each chapter as it came. Why bother working yourself up about it? Meh I say. MEH!

[Trip]

I thought choji would survive, wasn't too sure about neji. Kiba, didn't think he would die either.

[PSJ]

if we should go all scientific on shit neji had the biggest risk of being killed of bloodloss with that giant hole right above his heart, chouji got emptied on fat but unless those pills took away all his muscles to he would survive for a while just look at the jews during world war 2 they were skinnier than chouji yet walkign around, and all those pills did was make him skinny really.... i know it was a big fuss about they being suicide pills and shit but whatever.

I thought Chouji could live, but that Neji was definietly a goner. I mean, he had these fucking big holes in his chest and stomach!! I really liked him as a character, but the holes and the "light falls on his body and a feather comes down" thing really got to me.

But you know, these "death" scenes were just wonderfully done in the anime. Chouji got all thin (which wasn't done in the manga, I think) and suddenly stops moving... and Neji smiling with that "My soul's been saved" thing... they were very moving.

Kiba wouldn't die. It was damned obvious. He just stabbed himself, but went swimming afterwards, and Kanakuro arrived before he had time to even lose conciousness because of blood-loss. I was more worried about Akamaru.
