3rd hokages son?
i presume it is Asuma because of the following clues...
Ochimaru calles 3rd hokage Sarutobi-sensei. And Asumas second name is Sarutobi. From ancient chinese tradition a sensei calls someone by their last name followed by sensei. If this is true though why is it kakashi-sensei when kakashi is not a last name. Perhaps orichamuru says last name first because it was an old tradition and he was a pupil many years ago. Or perhaps sarutobi is the 3rds first name. But dont you think its weird that we hear of konohamuru but never his father or mother. BUT why is asuma not near konohamuru or appear to be sad enough. They did seem to be standing in some kind of order though, as in jounin to chuunin etc anyone got any more clues or disagree with me |

I disagree, since everything leads us to believe Sarutobi is the Sandaime's (3rd Hokage) first name. The best example I'd give is Enma calling him Sarutobi, and the Shodaime (1st Hokage) and Nidaime (2nd Hokage) calling him by the nickname Monkey (Saru). Enma has a very close relationship to the 3rd, they've known each other for some time, I'd say. I don't think Enma would call him by his last name; since they were, above all, friends. The same with the 1st and the 2nd.
Sarutobi is Asuma's last name. So there's no connection between he and the Sandaime, at least I don't think so and there's nothing that leads us to believe that. And like you said, Asuma wasn't even near Konohamaru in the 3rd's funeral. Even though he wasn't his father, if Asuma was a relative of Konohamaru he would try to cheer him up. But this is no new theory, after all lol Dranz-san, you bet it Saru was da pimp, I wouldn't wonder if he had a lot of children |

Everyone in the Leaf clan, and I mean EVERYONE, in the series has inherited powers from their fathers.
Shikamaru uses shadows like his pops. Ino has the mind-body switch. Choji has the meat tank, Sasuke the Sharingan, Neji the Byakugan, etc, etc. Not all of the kids who display their parents powers are bloodline abilities. (Or maybe they are, they've never been explained that way, AFAIK.) So then...why does Asuma know/use NONE of the 3rd's jutsus? Asuma's a taijutsu/weapon user. If he's the 3rd son, he's sure keeping it silent for a long-ass time, and nobody's mentioning their condolences about his dad either. Plus, he then deserts him to go and rescue his student (Shikamaru). Not very nice to his pops if that's indeed the case. |

Well. seeing how this topic has been discussed a couple of times. And I talked about the theory on the 12th. I would have to still agree with my post from earlier that the names are the same, Konohamaru's dad hasn't been exposed. They look alike. And usually in anime its easy to see who is related to who.
I got the theory from narutofan and since they switched their server they took the information off of the site. due to them having to revamp their site. Well thats my opinion. It's possible but not proven. Check the thread "Quick Question About Gaara" on the second page. Here's the link: http://forums.animesuki.com/showthre...t=11399&page=2 |
