    good point. with all the super powers it has, i wouldn't be surprise if the Sharingan allow the user to become the ultimate bullshitter. :D

    However, that's not a good basis to judge whether he is actually bullshitting. We've seen through out canon, that the Sharingan unconsciously activates during times of stress, be it emotional or physical. So, this telling of history may be stressful to Madara. So it could be that the anger he feels at being betrayed by his family and friends is the cause.

    It's a highly believable possibility that Itachi was a peaceful person AND that he was the ideal ninja which kinda creates internal conflicts that we see when he killed Shusui. We've seen the way he's interacted with lil' Sasuke before, kind and playful.

    Him killing the whole Uchiha family to bring peace to the village (which he puts as his first priority, like an ideal ninja) caused him great stress. and still did until he died. So who better to relieve him of that stress? His brother, who is still naive about the true Uchiha clan image and history. So he manipulates his brother to holistically hate him. This way on the battlefield, Sasuke won't think twice about dealing the death blow.

    Hehe, Itachi's so badass planning this from the beginning. only if he could have rightfully passed his powers to Naruto than the Wanker.

    knowing how psychologically fucked up ninja become (Gai, Orochi, Sasori) and how much of a bad writer Kishi is, i wouldn't be surprised.

    Itachi just went from the most badass ninja ever, to everyone's little bitch. Man, that's sad.

    and that's what an ideal ninja is: the strongest yet controllable weapon.

    Everything in this manga that doesn't have to do with Naruto directly is now dead to me.

    Fuck chapter 400.

    I bet you the only way to beat the Rin'nigan is to have the Sharingan. The whole "Rin'nigan greatest doujutsu evar RAWR!" I call bullshit on. Unless the Rin'nigan can bend reality, mimick the opponents jutsu and every other technique, use illusions, use fire hotter than the sun, trap people in a ever lasting genjutsu and who knows what the fuck the eternal mangekyo sharingan can do, I will not be convinced on the Rin'nigans power.

    Well, so far the rin'negan allows a guy to:
    • Share his consciousness between bodies
    • Summon anything (human or animal)
    • Absorb jutsu
    • ROCKET FALCON PUNCH!
    • Mess up chakra through a funky weapon (may be just the weapon though)
    • Use all six forms of chakra (all six elemental chakra types it says in my translation)
    Pretty powerful so far, and Kishimoto has apparently said it surpasses the Sharingan in its insight ability. Seems Nagato copied and mastered all the jutsu Jiraiya taught him before he was 10 too, so it's possibly just an upgraded sharingan.

    Just a random thought, but would bijuu chakra count as its own separate type? It would explain how the statue thing works, with Pein probably being the one to have created it, and would give yet another person power over the Kyuubi (which is probably what Kishimoto is going for >_>).

    Jesus, having a demon inside of you shouldn't be so damn useless against every evil villain and his mum. The only proper bad guy it's worked against was Haku, and Gaara, though that was more Naruto than Kyuubi... everyone else has ways to circumvent it.

    Another random thought, since I have many of them - we know Naruto has the 'ability' to change people, and Pein is probably the one most in need of a change. I foresee a grand fight between Naruto and Pein, with Pein being converted to the Book of Nar- wait, wrong story - to Naruto's Way of the NinjaTM and then going on to help Naruto pwn Sasuke into becoming a hippie ninja.

    I think I may have rambled a bit...

    They're not directly involved with him unless they're fighting him.

    If the chapter doesn't have Naruto in it, I no longer give a shit about it, for it is fail.

    Arrogance in all it's form, lol

    Naruto naruto naruto. Sasuke's story has been a long time coming. We already heard of naruto, Shikamaru, Lee and others. Sasuke's time is here and is almost ending.

    It guess after this, it's the conclusion for the things to come in the present rather then about the past. Well...thats how i figure

    We heard Naruto's story? When?

    We had a panel showing us his parents, one new jutsu, and a panel or two of angst.

    Sasuke's family gets a huge fucking backstory, he gets super-powers randomly, and one of the coolest characters of the series is in fact, a pussy.

    Yeah. Fuck that shit.

    I've been meaning to ask this for awhile, but I never took the time.

    With all the bad grammar and the intermittent spelling, the constant inanity, the retard!fanboy behavior, the shameless stupidity, and your constant, determined, fanatical refusal to listen to reason, how have you survived the banhammer?

    The concerted Uchiha blowing that occurs whenever you post began to grate from the beginning.

    Better, more useful posters have been chucked out for less than what we have to put up with from you.

    Why the fuck have you alone survived the purges?

    GTFO Uchitard!

    Simple. I'm smarter than you. Especially when you have nothing but biased and bullshit comments to post to make others look down and make your self look high and mighty.

    ...Your way out of your league, kid.

    And if you got nothing else to say other than more insults then don't bother. It's just a waste of my time, others reading time and a waste of posts.

    Ah i suppose so. I don't know weather i like where the directions is going in my opinion. Who is the real bad guy? If what Madara says is true, is kohono considered the bad guys or is it all bullshit? Or is Pein who wants to become a god and lead a new era which would considerably change the world of ninjas.

    It's starting to get too confusing.

    While this kind of edit fixing seems fun, it doesn't help prove your point.

    However I agree with you completely.

    Eh, I'm over it already. Just getting some kicks now. Besides, I don't see a point to putting any effort into it, for two reasons.

    I don't really need any help proving my point. I have not seen a single post his which isn't a brand new argument against him.

    And honestly, if he hasn't been banned by now, then the higher ups are just keeping him for their own lulz. Which I can dig.

    Ok, let me get this out. I'm not adverse to a side character getting the spotlight for a while. Hell, i condone it since that's what good writers do. Look at Bleach at this moment. It's giving us a historical background for the newly introduced characters (the Vizards, Old captains, etc.).

    Now if you as smart as you say you are, can you tell me why readers complain of Naruto but not Bleach?

    What the hell is this. Suddenly it's all bash me now? Dude, i have my own opinions while you have your own. I can't force feed you my own opinions when i know you won't change yours. So, lets see, you guys come complaining about naruto when it's obvious you won't even stop reading the manga.

    So your saying is that even though i'm expressing my opinions that goes against your own, you suddenly thinking, "why isn't this guy banned yet?"

    Dude, you got some issues to deal with. It's obvious your an idiot.

    Pretty much.

    Yes you can. We do it as much as possible on the forums. Its DLP's form of discussion.

    See previous, multiple posts about invested time.

    As I said before look at the previous posts. It's not your opinions we have problems with, it's the lack of evidence to support them, the consistently unimproving grammar and spelling, feeding the trolls, being a Fan!Boi, and... well... being an idiot.

    We've all got issues, they just don't give us a -4 Int.

    This is weeks of wondering when the banhammer will fall.

    Contrary to popular opinion, there are stupid opinions. In order for a legitimate interpretation of any ficticious work to hold weight, it must be supportable, it must be arguable, it must stand up to criticism.

    Yours does not.

    Furthermore, you do force your views on us when you assume we are not sincere in our opinions.

    When you wave off all of the support and examples for these views without rebutting them, you only show your inability to counter them.

    I did, after the tragedy that was the Hidan/Kakuzu fight.


    No, I'm saying you express conjecture dressed as sound arguments, then belittle counterarguments and provide only ad hominem attacks when pressed for evidence and support.

    Your sincere, concerted effort to resist any and all intelligent discourse, not even counting the need to rise to this forum's minimum standards, makes me wonder.

    No, not even sleep deprived (twenty two hours and counting).

    Edit: Damn you Kalas.
