Naruto (Japanese manga/anime spoilers!)

[Moritani]

*nods* Lee can't help but randomly hurt people. It's greatly amusing. Makes me wonder how he would behave at a sumo match.

Also, am I the only one that's happy to see Genma fighting. And spitting his mouthstick? XD

[Anidex]

XD That was awsome.
And Kotetsu and Isumo are getting attention too!
I loves them. They rock my world.

[Moritani]

Gotta love band-aid nose! It's good to see more minor characters getting screentime. It always drives me crazy when the spotlight is centered on the same character for extended periods of time. (like the Sasuke vs. Itachi battle, which drove me nuts!)

So, maybe this is better filler than before. But I still REALLY want it to end. ...And for Sora to die. ...preferably by fire... or flies.

[Anidex]

;~; I wanna see Hidan!

[talon]

I wanna see Hinata, cuz shes cool. And Gaara too, no idea where he ended up. He should be healed by now. Short some chakra but his sand jutsus should still work right?

[Xen]

I wont be surprised if Gaara doesn't come back. His story is pretty much finished. Though during the final fight he may come and help.

I wanna see Hinda and Kukazu too. ;_;

[talon]

I hope he shows up again. If 8tails ends up dead, he's the only person who has survived (kinda) the extraction process. Then it would just be him and Naruto left from the tailed beasts. Granted, he doesn't have his anymore, but it might give him some incentive to find out what Akatsuki is up to. And it does still kinda make him special in the story. It would be sad if he was brought back from the dead only to disappear from the story.

[Xen]

If he does come back I don't see it being any time soon. D:

[Anidex]

I think Gaara is too important to Naruto ot have him completely drop out. o o
Sasuke aside, Gaara and Naruto are best buddies.

[Moritani]

While Gaara's story is pretty much complete, I think he'll be back to fight again at some point. I'm not sure how or why, but I just can't see him being completely dropped from existance.

And at any rate, if he never returns to the manga, the anime might use him as filler sometime. Or in a movie. Or just as advertising to make money with.

[Xen]

If enough fans cry and beg maybe he will come back. xD

[Anidex]

XD This is true.

[Xen]

-waits for new chapter-

[Anidex]

I hope I get to see the new chapter and ep before I skeddadle for the Potato Blossom festival ~

[Moritani]

Well, the confirmed spoilers are up. But they're never anywhere near as awesome as actually reading the chapter.
