Naruto 237.... and Orochimaru would make a great Dr. Frank-N-Furter

Naruto 237... hmm, actually saw that one coming.



I'm confused. I'm pretty sure the implication from the previous two chapters was that Sasuke was not going to be walking up to Orochimaru and say, 'Yo, d00d. Teach me how to bitch-slap my brother'. Or am I missing something. And why is Jiriya so set on Sasuke going after Orochimaru, Sasuke is NOT like Orochimaru. Sure, both of them have major obesessive drives but they are NOT the same. The reasons for Sasuke's search for power is completely different from that of Orochimaru, and that makes all the damn difference. Actually, I'm -really- hating the parallels that the manga is drawing between Team 7 and the the Sannin. They are NOT the same dammit. To say that that Team 7 is like the Sannin is belittling them, and it is really irritiating the hell out of me. But I'll shut up because I believe K-sensei. Honest.

I'm hoping for a major Time Jump. I don't think I can deal with more training. I -need- more plot. Beside, 15-YR-OLDS! OMFG!

Anyways, KAKASHI!!! *fangirls*



If you think about it Orochimaru would make a really good Dr. Frank-N-Furter. I can practically see him saying, "a sweet transvestite from Transsexual Transylvania," and my brain keep on whispering to me that Sasuke would make a good Janet.

I confess, I just want to see them do the 'Time Warp Again'.

parrallel is their way of life. They are in complete denial of the present time.

Look how Tsunade is always comparing the people she met with her beloved dead ones. And How every single person who met Naruto found a striking resemblance between Naruto with somebody else (at the end you have naruto=gaara and jiraiya=naruto so jiraiya=gaara ?).

They all live in the past and can't accept that kids are not a copycat of an other adult but a entity of his own. It's all about the difference between societies which see human as individual and human as a part of something bigger.

I like Jiraiya but I wish everytime he compare Sasuke with Orochimaru that he could chock on himself. I think it's a way for him to dismiss his own failure regarding Orochimaru. It's comforting for Jiraiya to compare with Naruto. I don't usually think high of Naruto but here he's way better than any member of the leaf village by not letting down Sasuke.

Exactly. It is that old syndrome of living life through your children, and that is just wrong.

How every single person who met Naruto found a striking resemblance between Naruto with somebody else

I absolutely hate that. It make me want to scream and pull my hair. Naruto is Naruto and not someone else that is already dead and buried. You do justice by remembering the dead, not letting it colour the way you live or perceive the world. It just make me mad.

(jiraiya=gaara is fightening on many levels.)

I adore Jiraiya, but his inability to see beyond Sasuke is LIKE Orochimaru makes me angry. And I'm pretty sure you are right, it is as if to say wha tI did wasn't a failure because He Was Bad, so, I Gave Up. Sasuke is obviously like that, and now he's gone, it is not our fault (he's DAMN 12!). It must be because he's so like Orochimaru.

Grr.
