The code is a series of numbers, the code expert confirmed that last chapter. Besides if a katakana character was used, the translators/scanslators would've made a note of that I'm sure. Quote:

LoL so whenever people make attempts to even figure things out...some other people toss fruits and all kinds of stuff at ya...
anyway...to respond on your post tatami, i just cant remember i did...all i did was mentioned some possibility's.. but let's just wait. Just a mere question so dont throw stuff at me... They said this corpse was one of the three things Jiraiya left. [Corpse and the Code] What's the third? The other shinobi that Ibiki is to interrogate right?

The hiragana for ta is た And from the way it is drawn on the frog's back, I can tell it has only 2 strokes while the katakana has 3 strokes. Number and order of strokes is important in japanese and I don't think Jiraiya would screw that up. (drawing improperly a kana that doesn't look like a number in a way that looks like a number just before a series of numbers) Last edited by Rahan; 2008-07-01 at 16:26. |

(This must be one of the best weeks in terms of having the highest number of worst kind of, badly written, spoilers. Those crappy minds generating these crappy spoilers at the same time, how interesting! Or maybe there is only one crappy mastermind behind all these...)
Jiraiya could screw this up, in his condition, that wouldn't be surprising to any of us. It is important that Kishi wouldn't screw this up, and I don't think he would (I am assuming this because it may be too much for him to come up with a code like that, if it is even a bit difficult, so he might have asked that from another person with a non-screwer nature unlike Kishi). |

From what you guys said about the katakana ta, I would say that I agree. It looks a little odd to be the number 9. Maybe the first and second strokes blend in with each other so that it looks like it's only two strokes instead of three. If so, then I'd say it was purposeful because otherwise it would be too obvious that it isn't a 9. And it would make more sense that there would be 6 numbers (one for each body) and two numbers per line instead of 3 numbers in the first line. We'll see. But I like this theory.

Or you are simply reading too much into it. It vaguely resembles a katakana, but far more accurately resembles a 9, then we have a an expert in decoding saying its a numeric code, Naruto is the one to decipher the code, he has a 9-tailed demon in his belly, and Jirayia stored the key to the seal of said 9-tailed demon in Naruto.
Hmm, nope, I don't think the code-guy is the one mistaken. Last edited by Keroko; 2008-07-02 at 02:52. |

Here is my theory, the first pictograph is both a 9 and a タ. Jiraiya used the similiar shape to oriented the code-breakers to the positioning of his shifted alphabet. Sadly enough, I am not certain how the Katakana table is set-up (do you learn サ,シ, ス, セ, ソ and then ザ, ジ, ズ, ゼ, ゾ or do you just learn the タ-set after the サ-set...I honestly do not remember), so I can not solve the riddle . Then again, I am probably completely wrong, and the answer is as simple as page numbers . |

People assume it's a ta which would refer to Icha Icha Tactics. Yet, Tactics is Jiraiya's last book (we have no idea of Naruto's book title and the first book we saw Kakashi read was Icha Icha Paradise) and the least susceptible to have anything to do with Pein. (surely, the secret of Pein is not in the last sequel of a porn book series written when Jiraiya wasn't wandering around the world, but training Naruto) |

One thing that bothers me about the 9 not being numeric is that Jiraiya used a "," to seperate all the numbers. If the 9 resembled a book and the other numbers the pages, it would be much easier to understand if he used a different sign after it like ";" or ":"
However I agree that it isnīt just a 9, there must be more to it considering the way it is written. Last edited by ZGoten; 2008-07-02 at 05:19. |
