[Manga] Chapter 443 Discussion
Welcome to the weekly manga chapter discussion thread. This thread is created early to discuss spoilers and speculation about the upcoming chapter.
As per the forums rules, please don't ask for or mention about where to download the (licensed) manga. Also remember not to post or link to any translations of the manga, since this is illegal as well. Posting a synopses or summary is fine (and welcome) but please do not discuss scans, raws, translation groups, etc. Remember that the manga is licensed, do not post significant part of the chapters. This stands for pictures and direct translations. Summaries are ok, crops of pictures are ok as well if you want to illustrate your point but this is it. |

^That would actually be an interesting development. I could see Naruto talk Nagato down from his high horse, eventually convincing Nagato that there was still hope for peace without total destruction. Only to then have Neji burst onto the scene and kill Nagato, effectively showing that the cycle of vengeance will continue onward.
Mind you, I am not expecting thiS to happen, I simply think it would be a little interesting... That being said, let us all take a moment of silence for probably the best (fighting) villain in the series: Pain. Orochimaru and Madara may be better at being walking embodiments of evil, but Pain stepped up to the plate of villainy and delivered a much needed homerun hit. So, let us give our respects to this fallen villain...Amen... Last edited by james0246; 2009-04-08 at 11:45. |

Neji is just a side character... why Kishi would bother if Naruto as a main character fought his own inner demon just to not do it in first place?.
Pain is just a Nagato's tool, basically, Nagato needs new bodies and Pain will arise again.

Won't the question arise as to where the Anbu agents under Danzou where during Pain's attack? And because Tsunade is still alive, won't Danzou and his followers have to kill her to take take the reigns of power ... creating civil war? I don't think Naruto would abandon the village in those conditions. While Naruto would probably prefer to end cnonflict with his trademark charm that seems to drain the hate and evil out of villains, I'm sure that he isn't afraid to kill as shown when he hit Kakazu with his FRS. Naruto wasn't holding back, which is evident by the damage he did to himself, and Kakazu would have eventually have died with or without Kakashi's intervention. That said, I don't think Naruto is avoiding death, as death is an everyday reality of being a ninja. I think Naruto has just made bonds and doesn't want the bonds to be broken ... by death(Jiraya) or simply by abandonment(Sasuke). By leaving the village to avoid his friends being killed, that would mean that all his friends would have to fall in line once Danzou make his power play, which is highly unlikely. So all Naruto would be doing is just leaving them when they need him, which is very unNaruto-like. I'd still love to see Neji have a shot at Sasuke though. The byakugan is the most uncelebrated doujutsu in the entire manga. Letting Neji have his way with Sasuke would go a long way to giving the Hyuuga Clan the respect that has lacking in the story. The way the manga has been going the Hyuuga are nothing more than spinning tops with binocular vision. |

I am really looking forward to this conversation and flashbacks since it will finally end this arc. Then we can deal with Danzou, Sasuke, and the Kage Summit. I love the politics of Naruto more than the fighting.
Shikamaru's dad really believes in Naruto. He has always been one of the coolest old guys. Would have liked to have seen him and his buddy Inoichi fight though. Quote:
I'll just have to do with my fanfiction where Neji beats up Sasuke and romances Shikamaru.

Was anyone else kind of depressed by Hinata's words? We (i.e. the community at large) have talked before about Naruto's ability to neuter his opponents of their negative emotions (Killer Bee literally just mentioned this concept a few minutes ago), but if the end result is the utterly vacant Hinata (a person who's only concern is for another), then I would prefer for the villains to retain their various neuroses just so some personality can exist in the series.

That's why i don't like the character named Hinata (trying to avoid hinata's fanboys) she has zero self-esteem and zero personality to show, hence to me, humbly, i think she has little value as a character and i don't understand why so much noise about her.
I would like her if Kishi would put some effort in a character with some personality, i don't know if he tried to show a "delicate" or "timid" person, but he ended with a character with zero personality. We all like the characters who show some self esteem and "endure" the plot, heroes and villains, it doesn't matter, but to see that kind of characters like Hinata is kinda "meh"... I ¨thought that Hinata will grow as everybody did it, with some guts, because she is a f*cking ninja and not a character take it from a romantic comedy. Naruto is about Ninjas not about high school girls. Women in Naruto need to be like Temari, even like Tsunade, Shizune, Sakura and Ino (they are medical nin after all). well, now Hinata's fanboys can start to burning me... (you must catch me first ) PS: Blame Kishi, not me...

Where? I didn't notice it. Danzou has a plan, he is waiting the moment Konoha leadership becomes weak and a certain level of chaos is needed. Tsunade is currently without chakra and more importantly Konoha is in ruins. This is the best time if Danzou wants to do something. Naruto is away from the village, so are many who are loyal to Tsunade and Naruto.
