An only somewhat serious thread on my part, but is it possible the Kyuubi can feel his body as he gets closer to being revived? By that I mean once his skeleton and especially his muscles form, can he feel his body and or feel pain? In 8 tails form, he has all his muscle fibers and only lacks skin and fur; imagine if the Kyuubi can feel his body in that form, to have no skin and to be in contact with anything must really hurt, let alone being crushed by rock. One can obviously argue, and I assume it to be right, that the Kyuubi's soul doesn't actually return to the body until all 9 tails are active. If that is the case, perhaps he cannot feel pain until he is fully revived, but wouldn't it be odd though if he could feel his body in 6 tails form? Just being a skeleton would be downright odd. Right?
