Those little flaws...

So, studying Japanese, I've ripped the sound off the anime episodes, and listen to it throughout the day on shuffle. It's not because I sit and re-watch every single episode.

Anyways, because I listen to the episodes, I often hear the same ones at random, and a few things have caught my attention: flaws.

I've found three, so far.

We all remember the Orochimaru + Kabuto vs. Tsunade, Naruto, Jiraiya fight. Episode 94-96 of the original (i.e. non-Shippuuden). When Naruto stands in front of Tsunade, guarding her from Kabuto's attack and grabs the kunai, sacrificing his own hand, Kabuto screams, while charging at them: "If you die, you won't have any dreams - you won't have anything!" BUT, a few times, later on in Shippuuden, whenever that scene is thought back of, it's not Kabuto, but Tsunade who says it.
I think both Naruto and Tsunade think back of it, but I don't really remember when. Tsunade, possibly when she tells Raikage about when she started having faith in Naruto as they run, having just let Bee and Naruto go.

Another is when Tsunade and Jiraiya talk on the bench, just before Jiraiya heads out to fight Pain. She says that Naruto got his temper etc. from his mother, who grew to be a beautiful woman, but he got his father's face.
- Later on, when Naruto meets Kushina('s spirit), she says: "I'm sorry that you have my face", to which he answers that "that's good, cos it means he's a good-lookin' guy".

The last, though obviously noticed from re-watching, is that Sakura at some point in a flashback, telling about her training with Tsunade, is seen with long hair, which we all know she cut way long before even meeting Tsunade.

I can't help be get a little annoyed by it... especially the Kabuto/Tsunade sentence, as it's even done TWICE! Tut...



Have any of you guys noticed similar flaws? Mind you, this isn't meant in a blaming, critizising manner - it's simply just my observations.

That was Tsunade's opinion, doesn't mean it's cannon...

Ever heard someone say to you irl you look like your dad and then someone else say you look like your mother?

Kishimoto's been pushing out anew chapter, and anime every week for so long now that its hard not to make a flaw here and there. I think he's done an excellent job at keeping these flaws as minimal as possible. You can't blame the guy. I really hate it when people complain about the small stuff.

Oh God, pardon me - go ahead an slaughter me, please!

My point wasn't really whether it followed the manga or not. The manga is the true story, and that the anime isn't 100% compliant is what it it - but couldn't they at least be consistent in their discompliance?

Also, I really didn't mean people to take it up in a negative way, but just if they'd noticed similar things.
