    RE: The Atatsuki Thread

    if orochimaru has the 8-tail, wouldn't you guys think that he would be able to know and try to use it's power by now?

    RE: The Atatsuki Thread

    hey i was wondering if theres was originally 10 members, but theres only 9 monsters in the world, who was gonna miss out
    or hadnt they come up with the plan at that time. but orochimaro knew akatsuki wanted naruto back in the forest of death, cos he had the chance to kill him and didnt cos it would cause trouble, my take on it anyway

    Well, Orochimaru has displayed usage of purple chakra... and the former owner of his new body saw a snake towards the end (and Orochimaru's purple chakra was activated right before the body switch).

    RE: The Atatsuki Thread

    The whole Orchimaro has a demon is a good theory but it just dosen't seem to pan out. If his Chakra really was out of the ordinary wouldn't someone have mentioned it by now? Plus why the hell would he need the sharingan if he had the powers of a demon to rely on for his jutsu.

    It's a good theory for now but I guess we won't know until Kishimoto says so.

    RE: The Atatsuki Thread

    actually, that would explain why orochimaru can do all those very snake-like things that a normal human shouldnt be able to do

    Orochimaru doesn't have a demon. If he did, he would've royally kicked everyone's ass by now.

    If you guys think if Orochimaru can do snakey shit cuz he has a demon... then I guess that guy Sasuke fought in the prelims must have one too.

    RE: The Atatsuki Thread

    um if Orochimaru had a demon he couldn't randomly switch body's and keep it. Note that in both Gaara and Naruto's case the demon is bound to there physical body its not a addition to the soul. This means that when Orochimaru switches body's that he could either not bring the demon along or would have to have someone around to constantly rebind it to a new body. Neither of which are the case at all.

    RE: The Atatsuki Thread

    no mut, they explained how the guy in the prelims could do what he did (and you meant the guy kankuro fought)
    they never explained oro's unnaturally long tongue, the sword he stores in his stomach, the way he can slither around trees, and the ability to paralize people by glaring at them.

    DDBen, when oro took over the other guy's body, I didn't see him leave a body behind. He could just assimilate a new body into his currently existent body. Or maybe the snake's soul transfers with his (there are other types of binding between demons and nins than the kind we've seen for naruto and gaara). Or maybe oro is some wacked out reincarnation of a snake demon himself, idk....

    RE: The Atatsuki Thread

    AssertnFailure your also missing out on another crucial fact the third tore off part of Orochimaru's soul so we have also see his soul and the souls of the first and 2nd hokage. All of there souls were identicle if there was a snake demon attached or bound in some way to Orochimaru's soul wouldn't you expect that we would have seen a differnce in his soul at that time?

    RE: The Atatsuki Thread

    it wouldnt be hard to come up with a list of 20 different ideas for involving a snake demon in a way that works with the storyline......
    i was fully aware of the 3rd and oro's soul scene

    There was originally 9 members. There is 8 members now that Orochimaru left.

    9 members ---- 9 yoma. Sounds like everyone gets their own yoma. The details to Orochimaru leaving Akatsuki have not been revealed. It is possible that Oro had used the Akatsuki to get the snake yoma and then once he got what he wanted he betrayed them and left. When we see pictures of Oro when he was younger, he has the creepy eyes, but he doesn't look as snakelike as he does now.

    The whole Orchimaro has a demon is a good theory but it just dosen't seem to pan out. If his Chakra really was out of the ordinary wouldn't someone have mentioned it by now? Plus why the hell would he need the sharingan if he had the powers of a demon to rely on for his jutsu.
    Naruto has a demon also, but we already know that that is not enough. He still needs to develope, train, and learn new jutsus as well. Having the yoma makes them stronger, it doesn't make them invincible.

    Its a very interesting theory and certainly makes a lot of sense. I wouldn't have thought of it on my own since I don't have any knowledge of japanese mythology (although I did hear of the story about Orochi and the sword) but now that I have heard it, I'm definately going to be paying closer attention to subtle hints that Kishi might be leaving us.

    RE: The Atatsuki Thread

    no. There are currently nine members.

    RE: The Atatsuki Thread

    There was originally 9 members. There is 8 members now that Orochimaru left.
    Since when are there only 8 members. At the very end of part one there were nine shadows and that was well after Orchimaro left the organization. My guess is that they found a new person to replace him shortly after he left. Won't know for sure until we see all the Atsuki members.

    RE: The Atatsuki Thread

    i could've sworn there were 9 members right now... and oro could probably have his snake abilities as a result of jutsu. Remember anko could also do it, and oro called it forbiddon jutsu he taught her.

    RE: The Atatsuki Thread

    the reason why oro has puple chakra is cuz he's evil. evil chars always have something thats unique, like oro's purple chakra and snake-like abilities. there are definitely nine members, each of them in a pair except for that venus-fly trap guy (do we know his name yet...?). it is too illogical that oro has a demon, or he would have just used it to annihilate Konoha without coming up with that elaborate plan. remember, it was tough for konoha to defeat the kyuubi, and only then through the fourth's death, which means that each of the demons are extremely strong.

    RE: The Atatsuki Thread

    could it be that atatsuki already has more than garra of the demons? (i thought they worked in pairs...itachi & kisame both go for naruto?)

    RE: The Atatsuki Thread

    yah, not only that, but if you looked at that summoned monster thing, there are nine eyes, 2 of which are really eyes while 7 are white. could it be that akatsuki need 7 or even 2 more demons? and yes, even though they work in pairs, its for convenience for keeping in contact with each other and helping each other out. but they each have a demon target that they want to get, since we've seen several instances of "I'm having trouble getting my demon" or "I finally got my demon"

    The Atatsuki Thread

    At the end of the last arc, I got the impression that Akatsuki was determined to fight Orochimaru.
    I don't see why they'd do that (and suffer possible/likely casualties) unless he has something they really want... I doubt they'd do it to save Sasuke or to get revenge on Orochimaru for leaving them (if that was the case, they wouldn't have to wait 3 years to do it).

    Naruto has red chakra (besides the blue, standard one)... what does that make him, then? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

    i'm guessing 2 demons left, naruto and some other guy. They wouldnt introduce another 6 characters because that would be too much of a hassle...

    wait strike what i wrote up there...maybe its just naruto and garra. Garra hasn't been sacrificed yet so the eyes havent changed.

    The Atatsuki Thread

    easy, that makes him the main char!! main char and evil chars are always special!

    Edit about post by chaos: actually, I think its 7, since another member of akatsuki said that he wanted to fight kakashi's team cuz he was having trouble getting his demon. Sasori also said he hadn't gotten his demon yet. so that means its 7, since naruto is one (hunted by itachi), gaara is one, and there are 2 more members of akatsuki who say they havn't gotten their demon.
