Chillaxing with the Juubi. They're bros now.

So I hope everyone has read 646, if not, do so immediately. More backstory is contained in that thing than I ever though Kishi would willingly give us at one time. At first, I was wondering if the idea was nabbed from One-Piece: The whole Naruto plot was ALSO kickstarted by a FRUIT?!? What the...

We know the combined military might of the Five Great Villages: Roughly 100,000 ninja. We know Konoha is possibly the strongest, and has numerical superiority to the other villages (was it stated in a databook somewhere? Can't really remember.) So, Konoha probably has around 25-30,000...

I know the title might prompt people to write something like "lolnope" or "sure, obviously" and then be done with the thread. Please don't. I swear I have a point, though it's up to you guys to judge whether it's a valid one... As we (presumably) all know, white, as a colour, has a very...

She's the best candidate, among the K11 at least. (now that Neji's dead the term still applies...) Naruto: He is hellishly strong, true. But he just ISN'T mentally ready. Smarts in combat do not translate well to organizational and administrative skill. If they did, we'd elect presidents...

Be warned, the following segments may be hard to follow. My thought-processes can be accurately described as weird. I didn't really like Obito following his big reveal. Sure, he was the most logical candidate, but was ANOTHER "Evil Naruto" REALLY the best antagonist Kishi could cook up, for...

I'm sure you guys are wondering what the HELL I'm talking about, but bear with me here. The idea is, Minato Namikaze draws heavily on the mythology surrounding Hanuman, who inspired Sun Wukong (in China), or Son Goku (Japan). Yes, the Goku that inspired THE Goku. Hanuman was a once monkey...

You kinda shouldn't.

I'm being completely serious. I really, truly am. Kabuto is a sneaky son of a *****. He has, either personally or through extraordinary contacts in what used to be Orochimaru's network, managed to collect genetic material from THE most powerful people who lived since the villages were founded...

The Sage divided the Juubi (10 tails) into a Kyuubi (9) a Hachibi (8) and so on all the way down to 1. Why not take it further? Assuming the lowest possible division is an Ichibi and a Nibi, and the 9-tails grants 8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1 tails and so on, you'd end up with a LARGE amount of Nibi's and...

Lets take a look at our (least?) favorite Uchiha's psychological makeup. First, his own words: He wants to kill Itachi, and to resurrect his clan. He's lying through his teeth. He certainly DID want to kill Itachi, but to recreate the Uchiha Clan? There has NEVER been a single instance of...

So, here's a punch from Lee, unweighted but otherwise unenhanced: A SINGLE punch with NO GATE ACTIVATED managed to completely remove Gaara's Sand Armor over a large portion of his face. Here's Gai stating that the Initial Lotus is enough to break the Sand Armor: And seemingly with good...

This monster right here: Doesn't look much like this one: In fact, the last one looks... almost... human. Could that be what is meant by the Juubi's "Perfect Form"? EDIT: Uchiha Josephus has a thread on this too, and it was made earlier. You should visit it.

So, the Kyuubi gives Naruto bloody quick regeneration. But, it has another power: He can DETECT EMOTIONS. And there's some evidence that even small amounts of the Kyuubi's chakra simply makes the already present abilities STRONGER: Could it be that Naruto is, to some degree, attuned to...

When he said this during the Wave Arc: There wouldn't be kids of like, eleven and below stronger than an Elite Jounin, would there? Has there ever been? Don't say Itachi, this would have been two years or more before he awakened the Mangekyou.
