Temari was pregnant on her wedding day: A Naruto Timeline analysis

[usual disclaimer: I love studying canon timeline but no one's headcanons have to be bound to it just do what you like bye]

Note: for simplicity, I gave years numbers, the Kyuubi attack/Naruto's birth are in 2000 and the other dates are based on that

Fact 1: Gaara is at least 20

In Gaara Hidden, one of the councilmen tells Gaara "You've steadily grown, and reached the age of twenty" and Temari and Shikamaru are in the process of choosing their wedding date in this novel as well, so the Wedding has to happen later than that.

We know from the data book that Gaara is from the same school year as Naruto, and born in January, so he is born in January 2001. (In Japan, the school year is from April to March of the next year and the children in the same class are the ones born during the same school year, not civil year. If you want to know why I say that data books are based on school years, not civil years, flick me a request and I will happily do so! Just not here because it'd be too long.)

We can conclude that the wedding is in February 2021 or later.

Fact 2: Shikadai graduates 15 years after the 4th war

There is no indication that I've found in canon material about when the Boruto events happen, but we can read in this interview that Naruto Gaiden happens 15 years after the last chapter of Naruto. (We will have to assume that "last chapter" here means chapter 699, not 700, or else all the new gen has spent 15 years being teenagers at the academy.) Naruto Gaiden opens with Shino telling the class (Shikadai is there) that the graduation exam will be in a week.

The issue here is that chapter 699 happens in October (Minato says happy birthday to Naruto in chapter 691 the same day, and we know from the data books he was born in October) and the graduation is presumably in March (again, that's one the school year ends, and Itachi is also said to graduate "in the springtime" in Itachi Shinden). So it could mean either 15,5 years later, or 14,5 years later.

The 4th War happens in October 2017 (Naruto turns 17 during it, that's the age the data book gives us).

We can conclude that Shikadai graduates either in March 2032 or 2033.

Fact 3: Shikadai graduates at 11

It is the minimum age as per the law (it is said in Itachi Shinden, this law is made shortly before the Rookie 9 graduate: “now that it was a time of peace [...] it was no longer possible to graduate in a short time [...] no matter how talented Sasuke was, he couldn't become a ninja until he was eleven years old”).

It is the age at which all the Rookie 9 graduate (they are said to turn 12 during the first year of naruto and 13 during the second, again, I can give more details about data book ages in another post if needed).

The naruto wiki tells me that the Naruto data book says he is 12 for the Chuunin Exam, but the scan I have of the data book do not seem to indicate any age that I can find?

So this is not 100% a fact that I have found a canon material number about, but it's the most logical possibility (he's not allowed to graduate younger, there's no reason he would graduate older, this is what happened to the previous gen, and this is what the whole fandom seems to believe, so, yeah).

Similarly, everyone seems to agree that his birthday is September 23, I have not found where that comes from yet, but I have to assume it does come from somewhere. If you know please tell me!

[Edit: apparently it comes from a bonus calendar in the Shounen Jump issue 6-7 of 2019 but I haven't found a scan yet.]

We can conclude that Shikadai was born in either September 2020 or 2021, depending on the graduation date.

Conclusion

If Gaara Hiden and the wedding were in 2021, Shikadai cannot have been born in 2020, so he has to be born in September 2021. If we imagine that Gaara Hiden takes place right after Gaara's birthday (the earliest date) and then Temari and Shikamaru got married on the month that followed, Temari would have been 2 months pregnant, and this is the minimum she could have been.

Your honour, they have sinned.

Some random boruto/naruto headcannons since I haven’t done one of these in a while

Small tw:slightly NSFW for the first one but rest aren’t

1. Naruto,Sasuke,Hinata,and Sakura are all in a semi-open relationship as adults and sometimes have (adult fun time) together

2. Kiba gets hot suuupppeerr fast when hes asleep so he sleeps naked with five fans running

3.kankuro secretly collects crochet plushies in his free time,only a few people he’s close with have been able to see it but it’s massive

4.Garra is very very very touch starved,the moment his partner gives him any amount of physical affection he feels like self destructing because he’s to unused to it

5.Kakashi likes it when his partner traces his scars,it’s very comforting to him

6.Mitsuki has a huge crush on boruto (pre-timeskip) and literally everyone but boruto knows

That’s all I got for now

Note: partner was used for when referring to character’s relationship as to not limit it to one specific ship

Yashahime: Awful Sequel

When the first of the information came out that Inuyasha was getting a sequel, everybody was excited but it was a really awful show that was overhyped. It became a failing sequel to the Inuyasha franchise just like Boruto became to the Naruto franchise. It's a show about a hanyo version of kagome and/or rin who inherited the obsessive clingly nature, a hanyo female version of sesshomaru who barely has a personality that doesn't involve slaying and playing the violin, and a weak comic relief shihanyo who inherited her parents worst traits, who are majority of the time always winning fights.

Rushed

Just like with Inuyasha the Final Act, Yashahime was extremely rushed and boring. The Final Act was quickly wrapped up in 1 season as the manga was longer.

2. Constant Copying

In one of kohakuxrin's post there is massive recycling from the previous inuyasha content and especially the final act manga material that wasn't made in the rushed anime. As they

Ex.

1) Mistress Centipede with Mistress Three-Eyes

They're trying to remake the first villain from the past.

2) Hitokon

3) Bone Demon and a Father

4) Cat Demon

5) Meioju

6) Ginka and Kinka

7) Mizuchi and Nuwamatari

8) Nikosen

9) Sayo

10) Yuki and her brother

11) Wakana

12) Kodoku

13) The two onis

14) Snow Panther

15) An incarnation of the main antagonist interested in a member of the dog demon clan

16) Not alone anymore

17) A moth demon destroyed by a hanyo in a mindless state

18) Kao and the bug in the chest

19) Shibugarasus, Toads, Kumogashiras

20) The giant bug with someone within

21) The Rainbow Crystals

- The Silver Crystal was split into the seven Rainbow Crystals so as to seal away Seven Great Yōma. And as Sailor Moon shed a tear for her lover Tuxedo Mask who was mortally wounded, it caused the seven Rainbow Crystals to react and merge into one, forming the Silver Crystal itself. - As Zero shed a tear onto the Sacred Jewel, upon learning the death of Toga whom she was fond of, the seven rainbow pearls came out of it.

22) Chibiusa and the Door of Time

- Chibiusa has a key that leads to the door of time which leads to the future, and she was being hunted by bad guys. - Akuru has a pinwheel that activates the windmill of time opening a path to the future, and he was being hunted by Kirinmaru.

No question in those two because Katsuyuki Sumisawa was involved in the first anime version of Sailor Moon and in the same episodes in which the rainbow crystals assembled and Chibiusa took the Sailor Warriors to the doors of time (episodes 34 and 82).

23) Walking Around Naked

24) Pulling Out A Sword

25) Wondering About Name and Bullying

26) Recycled Moves

In episode 20, 2 lizard yokai attempting to break into the hanyo village look very similar to the two lizard yokai in the original series.

moroha trying to touch rion's ears like kagome with inuyasha's ears.

towa getting mad at homaru and zero for separating her and setsuna like Inuyasha got mad at naraku for separated him and Kikyo.

3. Contrived Powerups

Majority of the time, you would notice that towa, Setsuna, and moroha get these power ups to easily defeat an opponent by emotions or hearing about something.

4. Miroku and Sango's Family

Other than Hisui, they are barely seen.

Miroku spent the majority of the series on a 1000 day training and in the last episodes of the season he was suddenly powerful and taking on the grim butterfly. In episode 22, miroku was easily defeated by zero and had kin'u take his place.

Sango, who was known to be a strong female fighter in the original, was reduced to simply miroku's wife and hisui's, kin'u's, and gyokuto's mother. In the last episode of the final act, sango retired from being a demon slayer but could've come out of retirement to lead the new demon alongside kohaku but instead she's reduced to making mask and supplies. In the last episodes of season 2, sango comes out of retirement to fight with a rushed weapon called the black hiraikotsu.

Hisui could've continued to learn under miroku while being a demon slayer despite kin'u being a monk first. Sango, who was the original owner of the hiraikotsu, should have been the one to inspire hisui to be a demon slayer instead of kohaku. The hiraikotsu doesn't have the abilities it achieved in the final act.

The creators of yashahime decided in season 2 to give hisui feelings for setsuna, making it offiical in episode 48, to make it opposite of riku and towa since hisui is a full blooded human riku is a incarnation of a full blooded yokai.

Kin'u and Gyokuto, who appeared the least in the show, only appear to make a character shine. sango, who is a skilled fighter, didn't even train kin'u and gyokuto in combat as the only thing they do is throw sutras and powders. The creators didn't put any thought into their character designs as kin'u and gyokuto should've had different hairstyles and lengths from each other as the only difference in kin'u's hair was the small ponytail and gyokuto's hair didn't change at all. While kin'u's attire did change, the difference between gyokuto's attire from childhood was her apron and woven sandals.

They could've appeared more in the series and developed their personalities and abilities.

And when shippo appeared again especially in episode 48, kin'u and gyokuto reverted back to their personalities when they were little children.

5. Kohaku and the Demon Slayers

kohaku's face looks like iruka from the naruto franchise. Despite opposite character designs and weapons, rokuta and nansuke barely have personalities and don't even have backstories

How could the demon slayers, especially kohaku and hisui, not know setsuna was a hanyo after seeing her abilities and sensing her aura.

Kohaku and the Demon Slayers really don't think things through sometimes and aren't very bright.

Ex. Nikosen was poisoning a mountain and instead of thinking of other ways to defeat him, the only way they thought to defeat him in their minds was to burn the mountain.

6. Secrets

It seems to me nobody wants to talk about the past.

Despite living in the modern era for 10 years, the higurashi family never mentioned or seen pictures of kagome to towa until she was about to leave for the feudal era.

kaede never told kohaku, hisui, and the other demon slayers that setsuna was a hanyo or was sesshomaru's daughter. After 10 years of not seeing setsuna, kaede never once told her about sesshomaru, rin, or towa and even when she returned she still didn't explain. It only took 21 episodes for kaede to tell towa about rin and even then it was quick information about how they lived together for many years and she disappeared shortly after she and setsuna were born.

kaede never even told moroha about inuyasha and kagome.

I wonder why nobody especially miroku and sango told kohaku about towa and setsuna being sesshomaru and rin's daughters and not even a letter.

Even when kohaku found out about towa and setsuna being sesshomaru's daughters, he only mentioned something to them in episodes 5 and 31.

When miroku first met towa, he was informed that she was setsuna's older sister and instead of telling her about their parents he just stood there silently.

When the higurashi family realized that moroha is kagome's daughter, they never told her information about her and inuyasha and tried to fix this in season 2 especially in episode 28.

7. Underage Pairings

The creators of yashahime really don't care about the sick relationships.

sesshomaru and rin, knew her ever since she was 7-8 years old.

riku and towa, he knew her before she was born

homaru and tamano, kidnapped and tried to force her to love him.

moroha flirting with bokuseno.

I don't have an opinion on hisui/setsuna or hisui/aiya.

8. Rushed and Failed Backstories

They really didn't think much into the childhoods.

In episode 15, towa and setsuna were taken away and placed in a forest for 4 years and moroha was sent away to the koga and ayame by hachiemon.

In towa's childhood after being separated from setsuna, there's not much known as we see her meet sota, have a weight set and trophies to explain her life, a flashback of a pinky promise, and they gave of these rushed memories in episode 36 like they gave kagome rushed memories in the final act.

With setsuna, her being taken away from the burned forest, being accepted into the hidden hanyo village, training under 2 orders, defeated 2 lizard yokai, flash forward 6 years later, a recycled flashback from episode 3, returning to the hanyo village, a quick copy and pasted of episodes 51 and 52 except the soldiers are yokai, and leaving the hanyo village.

With moroha, a quick flashback of her last training day with yawaragi, battling a recycled character kodoku, being sold to jyubei, battling the birds of paradise, and giving quick images of her as a baby in episode 39.

9. Contrived Emotional Moments

The scenes that are supposed to be emotional are bland, rushed, and cringe-worthy.

Ex.

sota and towa's relationship wasn't sad for me as in season 1 and 2 they had very little interactions and were forced.

Ex. in episode 4, sota and towa talking and saying goodbye and in season 2 sota and towa meeting again and goodbye again after he tells he will always see her as his own blood daughter as they transform appearance when they first met.

A female wolf yokai named yawaragi was mentioned in episode 14, appeared as a small cameo at the end of episode 15, and official debut. She has a few flashbacks, a quick fight, then they tried to give us this emotional dying scene of her with moroha but i'm not attached to the character and everything goes back like nothing ever happened except for a new ability.

towa and setsuna tearfully hugging each other and apologizing when setsuna regains her memories.

riku tearfully killing zero.

moroha reuniting with Inuyasha and kagome while towa and setsuna, which is weird for her, tearfully watched.

moroha keeping the black pearl with the beni.

towa and mei's moments plus the final goodbye.

riku confessions of love to towa especially before everyone battles the grim butterfly and him dying.

Inuyasha, kagome, and moroha having a family moment on the bone-eater's well.

rin hugging towa and setsuna while sesshomaru and jaken having a conversation while 2 other families watched them.

towa and Setsuna hugging moroha in their new attires.

towa confronting a disguised riku in jyubei's shop.

moroha hugging Inuyasha and kagome before leaving their home.

Basically episode 48 was one of the worst episodes in the entire two seasons.

10. Terrible Characters

Majority of the yashahime series characters were boring and confusing.

Ex.

In season 1, she looked more like she was the big bad of the series than Kirinmaru, who didn't even act like the villain.

Zero possessed much more of a threat to our main characters, as she is responsible for the forest fire that separated Towa and Setsuna and indirectly separated Moroha from Inuyasha and kagome. She's done various other things, blackmailing Sesshomaru by cursing Rin. She feels very much that she had the same level of connection that she had that the same connection Naraku did with Inuyasha.

zero's back story as well seemed uninteresting and confusing, having feelings towards Toga, and when he dies her love for him drives her to kill his descendants. She could have become more interesting as the series progressed. If the rainbow pearls sealed away her emotions, then why is zero taking revenge on toga's descendants and got angry at sesshomaru's mother.

But that was not the case, as when season 2 aired, is when Zero started to run down downhill by gathering the rainbow pearls, for revenge, kidnapping towa, and basically holding rin's life hostage, and it all ends in episodes 36 and 37.

To start with, Setsuna learns from Rin that she must save Zero to stop the curse from killing her. Really wished we knew that before. Thanks, Rin, which leads into the next episode.

At this point, Zero has been emotionally torturing Towa for the entire night by reminding her of her sadness and suffering, and is pretty much trying to get Towa angry enough so that she can kill her, and in doing so kill Rin. She's almost successful when Setsuna shows up, shows Towa the dream butterfly, and suddenly Towa loses all the anger she has towards zero in a matter of seconds.

towa then thanks zero for what she's done and it is really annoying. zero prepares to kill herself and Setsuna cuts the thread of fate tying Zero to Toga and she removes the curse from Rin and commits suicide by Riku.

All of these in a matter of minutes, they make Zero, this threatening and uninteresting villain and rendered her more pathetic. They had to give her a redemption arc when she's been the most villainous character in this sequel. Kirinmaru felt more like an obstacle the same way Koga was in Inuyasha. But this, this was so dumb, and when I was watching episode 36 and heard what Rin said, I knew what this was leading into but it was so much worse when Towa thanked her for it. She really didn't need to thank the person who separated her from her twin sister and tried multiple times to kill her, sister, and rin because it's just wrong.

The creators of yashahime couldn't even give zero an actual conclusion that fitted with her character, and she's forgiven so easily. You didn't see Inuyasha thanking Naraku for setting him and Kikyo against each other and killing Kikyo, Sango thanking naraku for killing her village and controlling her kohaku, and miroku thanking naraku for cursing his bloodline. Could you imagine how messed up that would have been?

11. Timeline Error and Wrong Ages

The story takes place after 18 years after the final act but they keep getting the timeline wrong.

In episode 3, kaede said the bone-eater's well stopped working after 15 years.

In episode 39, kagome said she hasn't seen her family in 14 years.

Despite the yashahime creators making jaken and the tree of ages saying that rin is supposedly 18, she is really 15.

The true creator, Rumiko Takahashi, explained in databooks that rin is 7-8 years old in the beginning, sota is 8-9 years old, and kohaku is 11 years old.

In the 3 year time skip at the end of the final act rin is 11, sota is 11-12, and kohaku is 14.

4 years later when towa, setsuna, moroha were born, rin would be 15, sota would be 15-16, and kohaku is 18.

When they were 4 years old, Rin was 19, sota was 19-20, and kohaku was 22.

10 years later in the present as they are 14 years old, rin is 29 not 32, sota is 29-30, and kohaku is 32.

The reason the creators tried to age sota and rin up is because they forgot.

12. Copied Information

If you watched yashahime, you would immediately notice the constant copy and pasting from the original series and the final act. They're trying to do this to bring back memorable feelings to the new series.

Ex.

Even though the rainbow pearls were created from the sacred jewel and have its essence, as they just copied lesser powerful versions of it.

towa, setsuna, and moroha fighting mistress three eyes to remember the fight between inuyasha and kagome with mistress centipede.

setsuna not wanting to be a hanyo is a reference of sesshomaru disliking hanyo.

towa being controlled by the hitokon like the little boy, but how did it appear in the modern era without being seen.

setsuna remembering mei thanking her is to remember rin smiling at sesshomaru.

moroha appearing in the room naked without shame just like inuyasha.

grandpa higurashi giving moroha, who had a weird look on her face, a kappa foot just like he gave kagome, who also had a weird on her face, a kappa foot as well.

13. Sesshomaru

Personally, I've never really liked sesshomaru as just like miroku, jaken, sango, especially shippo and kagome. As in yashahime, sesshomaru became bland and terrible.

Out of all of the characters whose personalities and motives changed from the original series, The one who got it the worse was Sesshomaru. Despite him not being on screen for very long in the first season and the currently ongoing second season, he's barely said anything. To be fair, Sesshomaru wasn't having full-blown conversations with everyone, but he at least has some conversations with other characters. Here he barely says anything.

He's also not very emotional, which was the same in the original series, but with what has happened in the second season of Yashahime, you'd think the writers would give him some kind of emotional moments not the sick ones of sesshomaru holding rin when the curse was placed on her in episode 27 and it being taken off her in episode 37.

In season 1, sesshomaru has barely appeared and mostly made short cameos and flashbacks.

Ex. In episode 18, sesshomaru only appeared for a short time to quickly fight kirinmaru, orders jaken to not say anything then they leave.

The plot for him is really bad and doesn't make any sense, sesshomaru takes towa and setsuna shortly after they're born, stay away from them and refuses to help them when they were 4 years because homura and zero, who he can easily defeat, who kill them herself and kill rin, who said she would rather die than let them be sacrificed for her sake, but changed his mind when they were 14 years old. And sesshomaru idiotically listened to jaken sealing into the tree of ages and sealing inuyasha and kagome away into the black pearl because they thought they would go after zero and killer which would also kill rin, even though they would find another way to save her.

Even though, sesshomaru secretly gave setsuna items and tasks over the 6 years she's lived in the hidden hanyo village, he's a terrible father as he doesn't tell them anything, basically an absent father, left towa and setsuna to face kirinmaru and setsuna was killed, completely left the task of setsuna saving rin to her and didn't do anything as kohaku and sota were more fathers to them instead of himself.

The creator of yashahime could've made janis or kaname kururugi canon in the series and giving them a story of how they came to permanently live the feudal era, or a new female character with a background but instead they disgustingly chose rin, a girl he knew since she was 7-8 and mostly treated like a daughter.

In Yashahime, sesshomaru is a terrible husband as he doesn't see rin as an equal and majority of the time still has the father-daughter dynamic and treats her like a pet.

Ex. shortly after towa and setsuna, sesshomaru didn't say a word to rin and took the twins without a single explanation to anyone other than a rite of courage and cowardice, commanded her to follow him and stay like a dog especially in episodes 46 and 47 when he commanded her watch him battle kirinmaru, and even in episode 48 when he still ordered him to follow him. The only time sesshomaru is ordered around is in episode 35 by rin.

In season 2, sesshomaru majority of the time just stands and watches things happen for plot, even when he's in the grim butterfly, in a coma, and letting others such as towa, setsuna, and moroha to do the work.

For an example, In Inuyasha, the final act, when they are in the underworld and Kohaku tells him that Rin isn't breathing. Sesshomaru shows genuine fear and concern, which I believe is the only time he acts this way. Then when he learns that Tenseiga can't revive her, he blames himself for it and says that nothing was worth losing her. It's one of the most powerful moments for Sesshomaru and shows just how far he's come. Whether you see Sesshomaru care towards Rin as Fatherly or not, this scene shows just how much he cares for her.

Let's compare that to in Yashahime.

After Sesshomaru kills the dream butterfly, it causes the Silver scale curse to spread more quickly, which will eventually kill Rin. She's pretty much dying in front of him, and he has no way to stop it himself. So how does he act?

He says nothing, even when she talks to him and he keeps the same face.

sesshomaru separated moroha from inuyasha and kagome for 14 years and the one who gets scolded for badmouthing him was inuyasha, who was rightfully so, and he was instantly forgiven, kagome saying 'i'm sure he had his reasons', sat inuyasha, and scolded him for blaming towa and setsuna, even though he wasn't. setsuna also shouldm't have to apologize on sesshomaru's behalf.

He later kills the dream butterfly to motivate Setsuna to be able to use her Yukari no Tachikiri, which nearly causes Rin to die because of him and finally, he doesn't go and save Towa when she is being tortured all night by Zero and Nanahoshi by his minature galaxy.

It feels like they were trying to frame it as Sesshomaru could be genuinely working with Kirinmaru, but in doing so, they make him look like he's the worst father of the year. And with how long this mystery dragged out, it didn't make Sesshomaru look any better.

It definitely it's completely different writing when it comes to Sesshomaru in both series, with Inuyasha, Rumiko wrote him a clear goal and a conclusion. In Yashahime, they're trying to one-up the audience with their mystery and are unintentionally wreaking his entire character.

14. Not Naming Characters

Despite new characters such as moe higurashi, mei higurashi, and aiya receiving names there are lot of characters that still don't have names such as sesshomaru's mother, weasel man, gokoku village headman, northern demon slayers leader, the granny, the lady, the muscle, the ninja, and so many others.

Despite knowing that his name is toga, they still refer to him as the great dog demon.

15. Nerfed

Just like Boruto and Dragon Ball Super, the power scaling doesn't make any sense. In Super, beerus, who is a god, is fighting goku, who turned into a super saiyan god, after a period of time transforms back into a simple super saiyan but doesn't make any sense that he can still can fight beerus, they tried to explain away this through beerus but it doesn't work. In Boruto, there have been many multiple fights where the older generations are nerfed to make the younger generation shine like when jugo hit konohamaru and he couldn't move for a few days but when jugo hit boruto he easily recovered, when karin had to become weak with her chakra chain in order for sarada to be strong, or when in the time travel arc with urashiki that sasuke was constantly weak in order for a genin naruto, boruto, and jiraiya to shine. It also happens in more sequels like in yashahime.

Ex.

kirinmaru, who is equal to toga, can receive massive injuries from towa and setsuna, hanyos, and moroha, a shihanyo.

Zero, who possessed all of her 7 rainbow pearls that contain her immense yokai power that can summon an even greater demonic power that is far too strong and dangerous to even exist and the essence of the sacred jewel, can easily be killed by a feral towa.

The grim comet/grim butterfly, that has vast amounts of demon energy that it took toga, kirinmaru, sesshomaru, and inuyasha to defeat small fragments of it, was being completely held back by miroku and kagome, not even combined can match midoriko and kikyo.

towa creating the twin azure dragon wave but not sesshomaru.

16. UnInteresting Fights

Majority of the fights are boring and rushed.

Ex.

In season 1, you would notice that more than half the fights are recycled from the final act manga and the original series.

towa battling the human boys.

totetsu battles against miroku, hisui, towa, and setsuna.

totetsu and riku battling each other.

In season 2, the fights are stale and lack originality.

towa and setsuna battling rock fiends.

riku and rion battling kirinmaru.

osamu battling riku and towa.

Ex. In the final fight against kirinmaru and sesshomaru, the fighting moves sesshomaru uses are recycled from his fight against magatsuhi.

17. Bland Characters

Most of the yashahime characters lack character and are boring.

Ex.

Despite Raita and Futa having their parents killed by different species, different abilities, and opposite appearances, they're basically the same as one said something and the other agrees and repeats what the other said, they say 'take this' and attack. Raita and Futa's appearances didn't put much thought into them and when they're older the difference they get is armor.

With Mei Higurashi, we're told about her personality from towa but she's annoying and reminds me of kagome and rin when she wants to run into dangerous situations to resolve problems, bossy, and whiny.

Moe Higurashi rarely has a personality as the naive overly cheerful person that reminds us of ms. higurashi and her appearance looks like a light brown haired kagome and the only thing we know about her is that she's a traveling violinist.

takechiyo wasn't much of a character as is a less annoying version of shippo and a boring background story with his twin brother.

18. Sudden Recovery

In the original, inuyasha sustained damages from powerful and mst of them took him a while to heal but in yashahime mostly everyone, including towa, setsuna, and moroha, heals instantly from their injures even hisui.

It feels like when characters are facing powerful enemies they instantly get up without a scratch despite having injuries. I know they're hanyos from a powerful dog demon but it's contrived.

Ex. setsuna becomes injured after being restrained by mistress three eyes but quickly recovered to defeat her.

towa was weak after being released from hitokon's control but instantly recovered when setsuna wanted to remove the hitokon from mei's face.

miroku battled gaga gozen and was instantly defeated and weakened but instantly recovered when he battled setsuna.

In episode 18, towa, setsuna, and moroha battled kirinmaru and easily lost but instantly recovered.

19. Plot

The plot was really stupid and to be dramatic.

Ex.

In season 1, ever since episode 2 when towa and setsuna separated, they constantly remind us for drama by memories and/or through other people in episodes 3, 4, 8, 10, 11, 14, 15, and 20, especially episodes 8, 10, and 14.

placing a seal on setsuna and her main weapon to keep her demon blood in check but during the series she's never fully tries to master it, only a small piece of it known as the blood blade. they made setsuna have a seal but not towa, that's not fair.

Throughout season 2, everyone was saying that towa needed to fight with a demon weapon and not something made by humans but at the last episodes she's fighting with the kikujmonji, a weapon made from humans.

moroha getting through mount musubi's barriers.

In episode 17, setsuna, who doesn't even know anything about sesshomaru and the dog demon clan, suddenly knows the dog demon clan is capable of discovering demonic energies from a distance with their unusually sharpened sense of smell but in episode 23 she questions her clan.

In episode 24, riku stabbing kirinmaru, who had his guard down, to weakened him for towa, setsuna, and moroha and towa stabbing kirinmaru.

In episode 24, setsuna dying so towa and moroha can instantly power up.

In episode 38, towa, setsuna, and moroha attacking kirinmaru and sesshomaru taking kirinmaru's attack and sending them into the black pearl.

In episode 39, kirinmaru showing up and demanding sesshomaru to come out before battling inuyasha, kagome, and moroha.

osamu kirin, who barely appeared in the series, was suddenly the villain of the last episodes of season 2.

riku and rion battling kirinmaru and later riku, who was heavily injured, easily taking rion away from kirinmaru.

In episode 47, towa dying so rion can face fear who ended up dying again anyway.

It doesn't make any sense, Rin was stuck in the tree for 4 before the silver scale curse slowly started to spread but suddenly when the dream butterfly was killed it spread all over her body within a few episodes.

20. Rushed Abilities

The abilities within the yashahime series are quickly inherited and lackluster.

Ex. towa instantly receives the energy blade after meeting the mistress three eyes.

towa receiving the azure dragon wave.

after myoga explains inuyasha's tessaiga absorbing demon energy, towa instantly receives the skill to absorb demon energy with her energy blade.

moroha receiving the crimson backlash wave.

towa receiving twin azure dragon wave.

In the original, the tenseiga was able to revive people once with no time limit as it revived goshinki and rin but in yashahime they decided to give it a stupid 1 hour time limit.

setsuna quickly mastering the yukari no tachikiri after 2 incidents with sea snake woman and mayonaka.

towa instantly mastering the zanseiken.

setsuna instantly achieving vermilion bird ambush.

moroha instantly mastered the bow she received from her parents.

21. Background Characters

The creators of yashahime really didn't put any thought into what to do with the characters.

Ex. The higurashi family basically didn't do anything as in episode 2 they were just get kidnapped and standing there and in episode 3 when towa, setsuna, and moroha were interacting with each other, all they did was silently standing there and didn't speak to them.

With shiori, they barely changed anything about her appearance except she now wears woven sandals and different hairpins and worst short as she doesn't and let's little children fight for her.

With koga and ayame, they only make a very small non-speaking cameo at the end of episode 15 and don't even have children of their own.

22. Hairstyles

The creators of yashahime really didn't put much thought into most hairstyles such as takechiyo, kikunosuke, kin'u, gyokuto, rion, and futa have the same styles.

23. Bad Animation

In episodes of season 1 and 2, you can see multiple terrible animation mistakes.

Ex. Setsuna flying away from towa and moroha.

zero laying on the ground and rin coming out from her slumber when zero died.

Did You Know That Naruto/Boruto Openings/Endings Foreshadow The Future?

You can tell a lot from the opening and endings of the Naruto/Boruto anime.

Here, I'm going to show you some opening and endings that may foreshadow the future (I may have missed some).

First, we'll begin with endings.

In ending 4, team 15 had their moments where Namida and Wasabi were at a train station, whereas Sumire was seen walking in the rain.

Still in ending 4 (pretty sure it's straight afterwards), you see Boruto standing in front of Konoha, which shows before and after it's destroyed.

I was thinking, Sumire's the only character to be walking in the rain, and then the scene straight after is Konoha being destroyed. You can faintly see he's angry.

Could it be because something happens to Sumire?

Why would this scene be straight after?

Sumire is the only character that's connect to Boruto, except Kawaki. Not Sarada, not Mitsuki, not Shikadai. Kawaki's connected to Boruto through Karma, whereas Sumire is connected through Nue/Gozu Tenno.

Boruto means bolt, which is connected to Neji's name meaning (screw), but let's not forget that it's also connected to storms.

Why would Sumire be the only one out of all the endings (I think) in a storm, then the village being destroyed straight after?

Sumire's name means violet, but the surname she took on means family tree/lineage. This could connect us to the Otsutsuki or Divine Tree, just like Nue.

So I was thinking that either something happened to her (like her death) that results in the destruction of Konoha, or something related to her will trigger Konoha's destruction.

Now we're moving onto openings.

In opening 6, we see Sumire next to Hinata and Naruto, which reminds me of the next point.

I’m not sure where this was on, but I remember seeing it.

If foreshadowed NaruHina, Hinata being near Minato and Kushina, just like SUmire's near Naruto and Hinata.

So could it be foreshadowing BoruSumi?

In opening 7, we see Boruto, the only other character to be in the middle of a storm. But red is the color for rage. I believe this is connected to Sumire's storm and Konoha's destruction.

Could something happen to Sumire that leads us back to Konoha's destruction theory?

Also in opening 7 (I didn't get a very good pic of it), we see Kawaki actually rebuilding Konoha. Could that mean he actually wins the Boruto-Kawaki fight that was in the very first episode?

Next in opening 9, we see Kawaki with some white doves. White doves mean peace, new beginnings, love etc. So could it mean that Kawaki finally finds peace?

Maybe after the battle between him and Boruto and if they both survive, he helps Boruto and lives a new life of peace, similar to Sasuke, but instead stay in the village.

In opening 10, it shows Kawaki having red eyes.

Now, this is a wild theory, but could Kawaki have relations to the Uchiha clan?

Even in one of the manga covers, he has red eyes, just like Sarada's.

This could foreshadow KawaSara, or Kawaki just has relations to them.

Finally, opening 10 shows Boruto in the rain alone. This could mean someone he cares about died.

Sumire, for example, especially after everything that we've already gone over.

Or Naruto and Hinata's "deaths". Or even Sasuke's (those are the people I think are most closest to him who have a bigger chance of dying).

I think I've missed some, I don't really watch the endings, so there's probably more, but for now, this is it. If I find out more foreshadowing, I'll make a new post.

(Repost) Naruto/Boruto Headcanon: Chocolate Flavored Potato Chips, The Marriage of Karui & Chouji pt. 6- THE NIGHT CONTINUES

As the meal is served, Karui and Chouji’s table gets to eat first. Followed by the groomsmen/bridesmaids' table along with Naruto’s since he won the UNO game tournament.

Sasuke looked around him to see many people infatuated with the high-quality beef like they hadn’t eaten in years.

“THIS IS SO DELICIOUS! I NEED THE RECIPE NOW!! I NEED TO ASK KILLER BEE ABOUT IT!!!’’ smiled Naruto as he added another piece of beef into his already full mouth. Karin and Suigetsu appeared to have put their difference aside to joyfully share a meal together. Sasuke raised an eyebrow at it.

His vision was obstructed by Shisui stuffing his face with everything on the table. He was grilling his deep-fried dough, dipping it in the soup, and eating his sauce. As messy his cousin eating was, Sasuke couldn’t judge too much because he had no clue how to eat most of those meal as well but compared to Itachi he appeared completely off track. His brother looked like he knew what he was doing.

“Sheesh, this is some good food! Rin we better get on this.” Obito commented mouth open to the amusement of Madara who always gets a good laugh out of him being enthusiastic about anything. Meanwhile, the big-haired Uchiha was too busy soliciting waitresses every 5 minutes for whatever reason.

Sakura caught herself eating way more deep-fried dough balls, than she intended.

 “I’m definitely gaining some inches to my waist tonight’’ She sighed. “It will probably go to my chest’’ she ironically thought. Next to her, Hinata was hesitantly picking her spoon in the various sauces and side dishes. Sakura took notice and reassured her;

“Don’t worry Hinata, it’s nice to try different things sometimes’’ she smiled. The kind words allowed her to relax a little.

“You need to try more dishes!’’ exclaimed Hanabi who rose from her place to support Sakura. Quickly, she handed her a bowl of spinach sauce with cassava rice “Taste that! It’s delicious!’’.

Temari frowned as she sniffed one of the bowls of sauce, she quickly put it back on the table.

“Something is wrong Temari?’’ asked Gaara as he removed eggplant from the grill. She pushed a few other bowls away from her grimacing. “There’s too much peanut butter, I can’t stand it’’ she answered. Kankuro and Gaara looked at each other.

“No need to make a scene’’ said Kankuro as he shoved a piece of plantain in his older sister's mouth only to receive a herculean slap behind his head.

The dinner went as expected, when everyone was satisfied, waiters cleared the table while waitresses distributed alcoholic beverages based on each table’s orders. Yes, in Kumo they do the drinking after the meal and it is used as prepping for the dancefloor. When cocktails (or a beer whatever pleases you) are served, each table are called to offer their gifts and envelopes (of money) to Karui & Chouji.

Sasuke watched as Naruto’s table (made of him, Lee, Kiba, Shino, Sai & Neji) got up to greet the groom and the bride. Shisui raised an eyebrow.

“Wait, Sasuke why aren’t you going with them? Aren’t you friends with them too?” He asked only to be answered with an angry look. Rin sighed at what she thinks is her husband’s cousin's ignorance and not a willful attempt to hurt Sasuke’s feelings. Itachi discretely cringed at the man’s words.

Sakura sipped on an exotic fruit sparkling water when she watched Shikamaru, Ino & Asuma offering their gifts and best wishes to the newly married couple. Shikamaru was drowning in his tears and Ino tried her best to maintain her composure but failed miserably. Sakura’s table was called next. Hinata went on a long genuine monologue to wish them a good life as a married couple. Especially to Karui who just joined her in the “Married Women Club’’ and how she can’t wait to see her become a mother one day. The others (Karin, Suigetsu & Juugo) expressed their joy for them and presented their gifts even if they were not as familiar with Chouji and his wife as much as Sakura & Hinata.

“I have to admit your marriage is already better than Temari’s’’ admitted Kankuro to Chouji, he was instantly gifted with a second slap on the neck by Temari. Him and Chouji laughed it off while Gaara was offering a few presents to Karui.

Time passed and the alcohol was flowing AND IT SHOWED. Waves of laughter were getting higher, and some were already weakened or boldened by the alcoholic beverages. Naruto felt it “It’s Coming…’’ he said to Lee. Kakashi never felt this relaxed in a while, he needed to bring a few bottles of the whisky they were serving home.

“Ok ok, I see you guys have digested well your food and some burn of impatience to show their dance moves to the world or I’m seeing double?’’ said Killer Bee. Waiters started freeing the space to make room for the dancefloor. “Fool, Ya, fool. It’s time to get funky but before the bench warmers leave in a hurry! It's time for the throw of the bride’s flower bouquet. Come on, all my single ladies. Don’t be shy, come out on the middle scene whether you’re in your 20s or 30s. Let’s get it!”

All the single women were encouraged to go to the middle of the room so one of them could catch Karui’s bouquet. Ino happily grabbed Sakura, Tenten & Temari and placed them in the center of the crowd of women. She couldn’t stop giggling in excitement. Then even Naruto, was shocked when the entire crowd (from Kumo) started counting as they all knew what to say in such a weird fashion only for a song to start when Karui threw her flowers.

10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, HAPPY NEW YEARRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Out of all people, Sakura caught it. “Whoops..’’ said Ino when the room was completely silent.

Itachi who just got out of the bathroom and luckily caught the scene pointed his brother from across the room ‘’SASUKE, MARRY HER NOW!’’ he yelled.

Suddenly a frenzy broke out in the room and a large group of men (including Naruto and his friends) seize the raven before he could escape and started throwing the Uchiha in the air repeating the command of his older brother.

MARRY HER NOW! MARRY HER NOW!! MARRY HER NOW!!

If Shisui and Obito could, they would mop the floor by rolling in laughter. Meanwhile, Madara was collecting blackmailing material with his phone widely grinning.

“Ok Ok leave Sasuke alone and let him go! If not, he might destroy all of you guys with his Susano!” laughed Killer Bee interrupting the chaos with the stage microphone. Sasuke adjusted his clothes while standing back up and lightly smiled to hide the flaming radioactive anger inside consuming him. He never thought he would have to thank Killer Bee out of all people but first, he made a clear mental note to burn all of Itachi’s books when he got home. Sakura blushed at the situation not thinking things would go this far.

Since the mood was hyped, the DJ took the occasion to play the first song of the night. Quickly the lights were dimmed, and the song was danced with the marrying couple, it’s tradition. When the music started, the room turned into a nightclub in a snap of fingers and most people joined the dancefloor to dance to a choreography popular in Kumo, a classic for any reunion/celebration. Neji used the situation to finesse his way out of the venue.

Sasuke stayed longer than intended because Suigetsu wanted to stock on the quality grilled beef while Karin was slowly realizing that there were other attractive men in the world aside from her precious Sasuke.

I'm scared, in fact I'm terrified that now I have realized I am actually losing interest in watching animes.

When I was in my teenage years, I would always search for anime to watch but, the me today prefer the classic anime over new ones.

Daily there are a lot of anime being released and a lot of manga being published. I kinda find it bland anymore and feel like it's creating a mainstream story and the purpose of shocking (ex. killing every character they've created) people to get a lot of attention.

But here's the list of animes I've watched so far that I love and the reason why I've watched them.

I love all of them but I do have certain favorite. So I'm listing them from most love.

1. Blood + - Once upon a time we all had obsessions with vampires and I prefer this over twilight.

2. Tokyo Ghoul - My friend recommended it to me and I love it. I love how Tokyo Ghoul shows us the two sides of the coin and well the pov of a human turned to ghoul.

3. Helsing - once again same reason as above and because I love the opening song.

4. One Piece - my uncle made me watch it as a kid (it was a morning anime show). I stopped watching it for years after Ace's death but resume watching it after I miss Luffy's laugh.

5. Dragon Ball - every child should have watched it. I don't care if anyone said it's overrated but everything that influences us in our childhood is f*cking great. Plus I don't know why I was watching it by the time that I have awareness of the world it has already been in carved in my heart that I love it (more like my brother made me watch it when I was just a baby).

6. Yu yu Hakusho/Ghost Fighter - same reason as dragon ball. Plus I have a soft spot for Kurama 😍.

7. Overlord - I love this anime, everyone might say it's too bland but as a gamer especially an rpg and mmorpg gamer I love seeing the pov of an enemy boss.

8. Demon Slayer - I love the art style and the story, in my opinion the anime and the manga was too rushed but Demon Slayer in my opinion has the best ending and characters. You can't help but love Tanjiro (the kindest mc that I ever knew).

9. Slam Dunk - my uncle made me watch it. I love how the discussion with my friends would be involved with "Have the ball passed through the net yet?", "I think by friday it's going to pass it" 🤣.

10. Full Metal Alchemist - it was a morning show anime. I've watched it every morning and I was hooked by it (I love science and theories once again the INTP in me is grinding it's gears when I watch this). I also think the phrase "Equivalent Exchange". I would quote it like its a cool motto.

These are the top ten, I also love Hunter x Hunter, Naruto (sorry for Boruto fans but I hated the sequel), Shaman King, Flame of Recca and Records of Ragnarok.

I also read a manga "Shut Hell" that for me was underrated by everyone and that it deserves an anime but I guess it's too gruesome to be made one but I was reminded of Berserk and I think its unfair.

Aside from that I actually dropped a lot of anime. Though a recommendation wouldn't hurt.

His Past Her Present

- Chapter 6 Preview -

The firmly smushed heels of Sarada’s sports sneakers dug into her feet as she fled from Boruto’s house. She didn’t stop to fix them until everything from the gate to the roof was out of sight… And then she jogged the rest of the way home.

“Ah, Sarada. Welcome back. Did you have karate practice tod—“

“Hi mom I’m home I’m going to my room to lie down bye.”

It all flew out of her mouth in one rapid sentence. Sarada kicked off her shoes, raced up the stairs, and shoved her face straight into her pillow.

What. Was. That?!?!

When she could no longer breathe, she heaved herself onto her back, heart still racing, arms flopping out at her sides. She smacked herself in the head and wiped her mouth over and over and over again, but the moment she stopped, all she could think about was the very feeling she was trying to rid herself of and how good it felt.

She hated baby drool and slobber, and the thought of eating or drinking after someone else made her gag. But the subtle slimyness of kissing someone didn’t feel disgusting… That moment of pulling back slowly, her eyes rising open like the curtain in a stage play, breathing through her mouth as she hovered over top of him, his hand in her short black hair, her heart pounding over his…

Heat was already pulsing through her insides just thinking about it, tension pooling in her stomach.

She shoved the pillow over her face and make absolutely sure she couldn’t breathe. She needed to suffocate until she died. The worst part of all of this was… Boruto didn’t kiss her.

She kissed him.

Stupid stupid stupid stupid stupid!! Why did I do that?!

Sarada knew the answer, but it wasn’t one she liked, and from now on, it wasn’t one that she was certain she could avoid.

To make matters worse, Boruto didn’t like her. He must’ve liked whoever she was in her own dumb stupid ninja dream. Which wasn’t even possible!

Calm down. She took a deep breath in and let it out slowly. Let’s just sort this out… think about this logically. Asses the situation and figure out the best course of action. Think. Think. Think…

- Read the rest on Ao3!

lee and gaara for the character bingo pls 🙏

Y'all know these are my lil guys!! And my first actual bingo, (tbh creature voice) yippee!!

I almost could've filled out just 1 card for them but I couldn't in good conscience say Gaara had never done anything wrong in his life (even though he had a very understandable reason for becoming a serial killer, aged 6). Also I'm really not unhappy with Gaara's character development later in the series (even in Boruto, terrible haircut aside). I wish he had gotten a rematch with Lee, obviously, and that we'd gotten to see more of his actual transition from "i love only myself" to "i live for my love for others and making amends for my past", but thats what fic is for! Other than that I really like him as an adoptive dad and I'm tremendously relieved they didn't arbitrarily pair him off with some random female character.

Lee is the biggest wasted potential in the series imo ... he was the perfect underdog who encapsulated perfectly the series' original thesis of "hard work can overcome natural genius" and "we aren't fated for a certain outcome", and then he just became ... a joke. Absolutely 0 character development in Shippuden, no dope powerups (yeah he can open more Gates but we don't actually see him working towards or achieving that). The ever-expanding cast and OP jutsus and all the "reborn son of a God and also the 4th Hokage" shit that happened to Naruto basically just left Lee in the dust and undid the entire moral of his story. I never won't be bitter about that, so that's why I'm here, 140 fics in, trying to give him some depth and the endings (and bonings) he deserves.

I almost marked off "no one understands them but me" for both cards, but actually fandom in the past 5 years or so has moved in a really wonderful direction with their understanding of both of these characters and especially their relationship. I'm really glad to see people explore the darker/angrier side of Lee and give Gaara real compassion and healing instead of writing him off as "crazy". And I'm beyond thrilled that the seme/uke dynamic stuff for them has more or less gone extinct.

Final Animation (The actual final animation)

29/05/2024

After so many days of sitting in one place and drawing line art, coloring, exporting frames from Krita to photoshop and editing on both cap cut and premiere pro... I finally present to you, "A tribute to Ayane Nakamura".

To be honest, completing this animation feels like a big burden lifted off of my shoulders. I was so fixated on making this look as perfect as possible (specially scene 3). Even though there are some changes I wish I had time to make, I'm happy with the final animation.

Getting the opportunity to create an idea and having to go through the entire process of bringing it to life has taught me that animation isn't as simple as it looks.

I've watched so many short animation films on YouTube with unique art styles. And the thing is, I would just watch them and enjoy the aesthetics of the film and the moral of the story. I never knew or understood how much of time, effort and dedication goes into making such animations. Kudos to animators around the world!

But that's more than enough of my ranting. May I present to you...." A Tribute to Ayane Nakamura" by Maria Perera. I hope you enjoy watching this short film!

Animation scene time stamp

(00:00 - 00:02) Scene 1 - A couple walks pass Nakamura while she sits on the park bench sketching.

(For the purpose of adding background animation, I decided to add in frames from scene 2 to the background of scene 1 so that the transition to scene 2 doesn't look odd. If Nakamura were to remain stationary in scene 1, it would be odd to see her randomly start drawing in scene 2.)

(00:02 - 00:04) Scene 2 - Close up of Nakamura sketching while seated on the park bench

(00:04 - 00:07) Scene 3 - close up focus on Nakamura's upper body while she sketches and sniffles her nose.

(00:07 - 00:08) Scene 4 - Zoom in onto Nakamura's confused/ dizzy expression.

(00:08 - 00:09) Scene 5 - 1st person Pov (Nakamura) looking up at the sky from her sketch pad.

(00:09 - 00:11) Scene 6 - Nakamura blocks the sunlight falling onto her face using her left hand.

(00:11 - 00:14) scene 7 - Blink transition

(After Nakamura covers the sunlight using her left hand, she shuts her eyes. Once she opens them, she finds herself in a pool of water. This is a mental space created in her mind)

(00:15 - 00:16) Scene 8 - A 3rd person Pov of Nakamura sinking in/drowning/drifting deep into the pool.

(00:16 - 00:18) Scene 9 - 1st person Pov of Nakamura reaching her hand out to the surface as she continues to sink deeper.

(00:18 - 00:21) Scene 10 - 3rd person Pov of Boruto's hand entering the pool of water and grabbing onto Nakamura's hand.

(00:22 - 00:24) Scene 11 - 3rd person Pov of Nakamura opening her eyes. This is a close up shot focusing on her eyes as Boruto's glowing figure appears.

(00:24 - 00:27) Scene 12 - 1st person Pov of Boruto's character. In this scene there's a slow zoom in onto his character.

(00:27 - 00:30) Scene 13 - Close up and zoom in onto Boruto's 'forehead protector' where the attention is focused on the glowing symbol.

(00:30 - 00:37) Credit scene

gonna go ahead and crack pandora’s wasp nest open here—how could naruto have been good/how would u have written it

*begins chewing at my restraints and rips the iron door of my containment unit off its hinges* okay so the SHORT version is that naruto should have ENDED ssssomewhere around the Pain arc, maybe throw in one more, could probably keep..tobi...if you just make it WAY less convoluted, but. like that's it that's the wrap up on the lesson of NINJAS ARE HUMAN WEAPONS IN THE ARSENAL OF ENDLESS WAR. You can get maybe ONE more amp up, but the actual story did like 40, because it's shonen. Also Naruto could have had at least a LITTLE thought put into how he was like. raised. there is so much retroactive storytelling in this manga but apparently naruto has just been living in an apartment off his government provided milk and ramen since he was an infant. Maybe make me give a shit about Sarutobi by having had him go and bottle feed the demon baby or SOMETHING. Is Jiraiya the deadbeat sending child support checks or something? It's extremely hard to have Naruto exist at all as he is the second you put any thought into his childhood- which is why GAARA EXISTS. THAT'S NARUTO WITH 6 SECONDS OF THOUGHT. GIVE THAT BOY A FRIEND TO EXPLAIN HOW HE'S SO PEPPY!! SOME SORT OF GUARDIAN FIGURE BEFORE HE'S 12, Iruka could Almost count if he didn't act like he barely knew the little guy. Teacher Watches Orphan Go To Empty Home While Sad Flute Song Plays and says: Fuck that little kid, cant stand him, oh shit wait the author realized he needs one (1) parental figure in order to not lose his mind okay here i c Anyway, besides all that. Well for one thing Sasuke is RIGHT. Fuck Konoha! And the Government! did you see what they did to his clan!!! That one dude fucking HARVESTED them!! So you have little renegade fuck the system baby, and "If I'm king president I can fix all the problems!" baby. Good end: Naruto goes damn maybe u right and we should make some steps to try and alter the cycle of war and death and genetic eyeball supremacy. Neji voice: yeah i taught you all about weird bloodline family shit, remember that?? Bad end: The Entire Rest Of Naruto and Boruto, And No One Learned Anything. Also, the retroactive addition of GODS and PROPHECY anD REINCARNATION and MORE BLOODLINE SUPER WIZARD POWERS is so. Lame, Boring, Snore. Giving naruto a special baby background DESTROYS the fact he's kind of a nobody! He's just some kid with ONE skill he worked really hard on and he uses it in order to hack his way into doing all the other stuff he wants to do!! His only boon is haaving a LOT of energy to burn and STUBBORNNESS!! Screams in ADHD child Haku, Gaara, the Akatsuki/Orochimaru, and Pain. Are all good. Those are the arcs that stay and every one of them has a PRETTY STRONG POINT point about what happens when you smash children into little nukes. Eats that with a spoon. (PS JIRAIYA WHAT THE FUCK WHY DID YOU LEAVE THOSE INFANTS IN A WAR Z) Oh also there's a lot to be said on how to rewrite uhhh literally Any of the women characters into relevancy because as they are rn they barely even count as such. But if i talk about that I would be here for the entire rest of the y- IMAGINE IF SAKURA'S FUCKING MEDICAL JUTSU MEANT ANYTHING!! WHAT IF SHE COULD HAVE BEEN USEFUL AGAINST KONAN BECAUSE SHE CAN SEE ALL HER NERVES IN HER HORRIFYING PAPER FLESH NO JUTSU, SOMETHING, ANYTHING, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA *i am dragged back into my cell*

Update

Hey everyone! Long time no post 🫣 A lot has happened since I last checked into this blog (I can’t believe how quickly 6 years have passed by), but I’m back in the Akatsuki fandom indefinitely. I’ve queued one post to be released each week so at least you guys will have content for some time even if I get busy or leave the fandom. I’ve also cleared the ask box to get a new start, so the ask box is now open again! Feel free to send anything - this includes ships, which I will post once a week for filler.

If there are any of you still left, I wanted to ask what posts were you interested in seeing? Also, this blog’s 10 year anniversary is coming up in April and I wanted to do something special for it because wow I can’t believe this blog has been up for this long! Looking through all our old posts makes me feel really nostalgic since so much has changed since then (except my love for the Akatsuki, of course). Let me know if you all have any ideas for our 10-year anniversary post, and if you ever want to chat about anything Akatsuki, I’ll be here! Thank you all for your continued support of this blog; I’ll see you all next week for our first post back from hiatus :)

Note: I haven’t watched Boruto and don’t really intend to at this point, so my posts will only be taking into context what happened in Naruto and Naruto Shippuden.

My rank for new generation timeskip.

1. Sumire Kakei.

OMG she look like kpop idol with that dress in good way. 10/10

2. Sarada Uchiha.

She wear black and red, it make Akatsuki vibe. Verry rebbel and strong as expected from Uchiha girl. 9,5/10

3. Chocho Akimichi.

OMG I like the way she wear butterfly pin and cardigan. But i feel sad they don't give her Akimichi symbol to her outfit. 9/10

4. Mitsuki.

To be honest he always wear more traditional thing since he was young. In new era he give same thing, he still use traditional outfit but more modern style that really good for him. The most important they don't give us anoying change. 8,5/10.

5. Boruto Uzumaki.

I like his outfit look mesh and rebbel in same time he look like real "hot villain". But his outfit made me worry, his outfit look like Sasuke. That make me think his dead. One thing i hate most they replace Shikadai friendship bracelet with random bracelet. I feel uneasy too it. 8/10

6. 8th Hokage Son Shikadai Nara

Honestlly i don't know what to say about my baby outfit. For me they not bad not good to, they ok for me. I like his pants a lott, they look normal not anoying. His jacket make me into LOVE-HATE RELATIONSHIP. I more like his open his jacket like he do when he was young, but i like how Nara symbol placement. He look proud as Nara (Offcourse new hokage is Nara now). The most i love is his belt same with Shikamaru and they outfit colour look similiar. 7,5/10

7. Kawaki

To be honest I almost into his outfit, and then i see his back. His hair really suit him, jacket is really badass but HIS PANTS REALLY DISGUSTED. I hate someone use that type pants even in real life. The pants make him lower than Boruto for me 6,5/10.

8. Himawari

Someone said, our expectation was make us disapointed and i understand with that now. There rumored Himawari will have long hair that was made me happy but sadlly reality was dissapointed me. She don't look great in long hair, and the outfit is not great like other girls. But i love the way sunflower in her shirt much. BTW Himawari mean Sunflower so that really cute. 6/10.

9. Inojin

Ok Ikemoto, what are you doing with the most handsome boy from the most beautyfull woman and man in Konoha? I can't think anything about that. He look like Daemon when i see him first, i still hope that was Daemon but that Inojin. He look like go to Gaara Barbershop and the outfit really look bad. I will cry but some poeple in Twitter said he look like Jungkook BTS when his debut and look like Inumaki Toge from Jujutsu Kaisen. That made me think better and not give him -1000. For me his design is 5/10.

10 First Lines Tag Game! ✨

Thank you for the tag @kiljoius! I love a good tag game!

Rules: Share the first lines of ten of your most recent fanfics and tag ten people. If you have written less than ten, don’t be shy and share anyway.

1) Buzz Buzz - [Shino x Tenten] [Smut]

Tenten loved the BBQ dinner meetups her friends had often, they were such an easy way to get everyone she cared about in the same room to eat and talk the afternoon away.

2) The Bittersweet Apple - [Obito x Mei]

Obito’s usual light-hearted persona had left him entirely, and all he could do was slump further in his seat.

3) After The Sunset - [Shikaku x Mabui] [Smut]

“What a drag, Kakashi. I beg you to get someone else.”

4) The Real Treasure - [Shino x Tenten]

The Captain of the LOFS Tobirama III, one of the finest ships in the Land of Fire navy, let his eyes close, hands held behind his back in a proper attention stance flexed in unrest.

5) Welcomed Titles - [Gaara x Lee]

To Gaara, being called by his title, on occasion, felt like a door slammed in his face.

6) Time To Heal

Ino used to think working in the flower shop was the best thing in the world.

7) The Important Mission! Get Auntie Tenten and Shino Sensei Together! - [Shino x Tenten]

The classroom was dull and stuffy. Sensei’s words were stiff and unfeeling, and by the book made Boruto huff.

8) Duty Above Everything - [Shino x Tenten] [Kakashi x Gai]

“I will not sugarcoat this. Unfortunately, we have a situation.”

9) Mirai’s First Birthday

Hinata threw open her curtains with gusto sticking her head out the already open window and taking a deep breath in through her nose as a contented smile found its way onto her face.

& 10) Smile For The Camera - [Kiba x Ino] [Smut]

Kiba flopped ungracefully back onto his bed, making his girlfriend scoff and tell him off about wrinkling his dress shirt, which only earned her a dismissive wave of his hand before rolling onto his back, putting more creases in the maroon fabric.

Pre-Boruto Konohagakure Central Locations

1. Ninja Academy:

Used heavily for both military and domestic affairs, established by the Nidaime Hokage, Tobirama Senju. It has been expanded many times to reach its current size, and the curriculum changed with new generations. It is found at the base of the Hokage mountain, this building also contains the administrative division where the Hokage office is located.

The jōnin station is near here, and as the heart of the villages power, they congregate at this location when not on duty to wait on the Hokage’s order, or in case of an emergency. On top of the building is the terrace where Team 7 first told Kakashi, and each other, their dreams for the future. The Hokage mountain can be viewed from this spot, which during emergencies, residents of Konoha can assemble at it.

2. Hokage Residence:

Passed down from the Shodai Hokage, Hashirama Senju, this mansion is the residence of the current village leader. Its located near the academy and Hokage mountain, making it an ideal location.

The building contains many forbidden and dangerous scrolls, juts, and other top secret information, making it a highly sought after place for intruders, even before taking into account that the Hokage also lives there.

3. Konoha Hospital:

The Konoha hospital contains both civilian doctors and medical-nin. Although most of the staff are skilled enough for basic treatment, special cases and certain emergencies mean that the higher skilled medics are required. Research in medicine and jutsu development occurs here.

4. Movie Theatre:

Located on one of the largest roads in Konoha, the cinema is a popular site for adults. This may be due to the influx of Make-Out (Icha Icha) fans, as these R-rated screenings are often sold out for days. Young people do also frequent the cinema, with Princess Gale movies becoming well liked. Tickets for admission to the Make-Out (Icha Icha) viewing are around 180ryo per person.

At the bookstore, the Make-out Paradise volume 1-3 and Make-Out Violence books are sold at 120ryo each, the price of Make-Out Innocence and Make-Out Tactics is unknown, but thought to be similarly priced.

5. Yamanaka Flowers:

This is a flower shop run by the Yamanaka clan, like an invitation to the land of dreams, the shop is filled with beautiful colours and scents. It was opened during the time of the Shodai Hokage, meaning its been ran for over 60 years.

6. Naruto’s Neighbourhood:

Near the academy, always bustling with people. It contains many old shops.

7. Ichiraku Ramen:

A favoured ramen shop within Konoha, founded 34 years before Shippuden by Teuchi, and ran alongside his daughter. Its popular amongst the old and young, famous for their strong commitment to taste and the tonkotsu they serve.

8. Konoha Tea Avenue:

A row of tea and sweet shops with a great view of the Hokage mountain. A famous shop here is the Amaguriama sweet shop, known for its kuriyoukan (chestnuts and sweet bean jelly), and their kuri zenzai (chestnuts and red bean paste soup). It also contains the Dango shop Team 10 visit.

9. Shushu-ya:

A Chinese restaurant selling huge plates of food and their own brand of sake.

10. Reservoir:

A reservoir within Konoha, and a frequent waiting spot for Team 7.

11. Naruto’s Place:

Naruto’s apartment consisted of an open plan kitchen and bedroom, a bathroom (11), a toilet (10), and a small training room covered with no windows. As shown in the below illustration the main room has the entrance to the apartment (1), shelves for shoes (2), a box of ramen (3), a sink to wash dishes (4), cupboards (5), Naruto’s old goggles on a shelf above his bed (6), an under bed storage area (7) and a mirror (8). The training room has a mini (and exhausted) Kakashi plush (9). Naruto is very fond of plants, as can be seen by his collection. His bedroom window is east facing, so the room gets plenty of natural light.

Honourable Mentions

Konoha Hot Springs:

Dozens of hot springs to help shinobi relax, or even train. The hot springs are divided by gender.

Yakiniku Q:

This is a Korean restaurant within Konoha, shinobi teams frequent the place after missions or in times of celebration. Their most popular dish is salted beef tongue with welsh onion.

Hokage Rock:

Symbol of the village, with each Hokage’s faced carved into it. During emergencies everyone assembles here.

Kikyo Castle:

Castle near the village borders, site of where Gaara killed Dosu Kinuta, and near where Baki and Hayate Gekko fought.

Practice Grounds:

Used for shinobi training and skirmishes, more than fifty training grounds available with different sizes and layouts.
