The Juubi is basically a Plant beast

[GdaTyler]

I think it is a plant due to it's appearance and features. The tails also seem to be opening up like the bud of a flower. Therefore the beast is "blooming:. It is also made out of primarily natural energy, so I think the Juubi is a plant.

I mean look at this thing:

Exactly Yamto and The first will combine and kill the Jubi. Don't ask me how my theroy will e out soon.

Well apparently its chakra gives off essence of life on earth itself.

 

[MinatoTheYellowFlash]

Its nature itself u_u

He does. xd They should give him a bow to balance out the ugliness.

Think about it. It is, in essense, Nature Chakra. Somehow, a chakra nature which grows, controls, and otherwise manipulates trees and wood has the capability of surpressing the lesser forms of this beast (9 tailed beasts), and feeding this thing (Yamato and Hashirama were enfused with the Gedo Mazo (Juubi) to enhance its power).

What can I say? The facts line up. Also, Yamato was in the statue, was he not? So where is he in this Juubi?

Phew at least I wasn't the only person who thought it resembled a flower.
