naruto blogging part 3.

naruto actually has a couple chapters where he introspects and reflects on his childhood. it also includes a fist fight against his persona 4 style shadow self. he is no less unhinged about sasuke for this. sasuke on the other hand oh yeah not a shred of reflection or lessons learned, he's running full throttle on emotions only not a single thought in that boys head. no thoughts head empty only angst and violence.

if the jinchuuriki seal weakens during pregnancy why do you keep sealing them in women.

make kakashi a part of anbu at like 12 and sends him of deadly assasinations. but no he cant fight the kyuubi at 15 like lol he's definitely seen worse at this point

538 kishimoto is so trying to make this a thing. he just thought of it and now is trying to retcon the series, again. because none of the spars or fights until now have had this finger thing.

Kishimoto is a master of asspull no jutsu and retcon no jutsu and sudden power up no jutsu but it usually its at least connected. Like with itachi/sasukes sharingan with the left and right eyes just like how amaterasu and tsukiyomi were born of izanagi washing his left and right eyes. And then susanoo finished out the trio of powers/gods. I guess also foreshadowing that izanagi is also a jutsu. Havent seen izanami yet tho.

oh im not done got about another 160 chapters but i've been skipping around and jumping back and forth between the anime and manga. the anime has filler but a lot of the filler is actually pretty decent (and the only time women get screentime) the anime also includes novel information and in some plaes the pacing and presentation of events is actually better. i also got nostalgic and reread some of og naruto

when i said i was talking about drawing naruto i wasn't saying the the series in general i mean the obnoxious hyperactive orange jumpsuit wearing idiot. idk how much you saw but mid 2000s had loads of fan art like this was just after shippuden released and when people drew naruto in his 20s it was always with longer hair which i think is interesting since kishimoto gave him short short hair for his 30s. there's also the changing artstyle from the first anime to the newest as well as in the manga and i find that all interesting so i was thinking of making a refernce sheet for naruto essentially detailing how his appearance changes over time filled with head canons of course.

oh when i say filler i dont just mean filler episodes. the episodes themselves are often paced slow to drag things out or have unnecessary flashbacks. so you have opening and sponsors 2min replay of last part of earlier ep 5min ed + preview + skit 3min +3 min of flashbacks and at a 23min run time theres only really about 10min of content per ep

i think i said this before but wow i feel bad for the ninetails and bijuu. confined and sometimes chained or speared to pin them in place, stripped of bodily autonomy. their chakara or even their body parts or physical form are controlled by another person. because people are jealous of their power, because they do not look human. i have much empathy for the Other, its quite reasonable they want to destroy konoha

Sasuke's hair after the manga ends sucks so like all of boruto im ignoring it. Thinking back a lot of 2010 boys had the cockatoo hair: sasuke, allen walker, noctis, riku?. Anyways long hair could look good one him, tied back like itachi but keeping the bangs. I can understand wanting to hide the rinnegan but sasuke already was THE emoboy of the 2000s he doesnt need to look more emo. But if he had long hair would it be flat like itachi or spikey like madara?

Back to the double suicide pact. I've mainly heard about double suicides in japan in the context of lovers' suicide (i think hxh references this too) where two lovers decide to simultaneously kill themselves because circumstances wont allow them to be together in this life in hopes they can be together in the next. And thats literally what naruto proposes. Ah where the quote... Its like if we die i will no longer be the jinchuriki and you'll no longer be an uchiha we will be free of our burdens. If i cant be with you in this life i'd rather die and wait to be reincarnated with you. Naruto chooses death with sasuke over life as hokage im not over this. I'll take all your hatred so that you are freed from it. Like, bruh, wow.

Another thing i dont like about boruto is that naruto and sasuke dont have matching arms anymore. Its important that they match

having the sharingan evolve into the rinnegan is classic kishimoto bullshit. he just wanted another power level up. the sharingan is so closely tied to the uchiha clan with shinto imagery and then the rinnegan… well its used to create cheap narrative tension to give naruto an op villian to fight via nagato. the rinnegan is associated with buddhist imagery and divinity in naruto-verse and gets like the most random mix of powers kishimoto was clearly scrapping the dregs of his brain for cool power ideas. the 6 paths worked for the pain aesthetic but does mesh at all with the rinnegan's status as ultimate eye. you get attraction/repulsion, mechs, soul extraction, big animal summon, chakra absorption, revive the dead, some other weird summon. basically its whatever kishimoto needed at the time to make pain threatening with his usual 0 thoughts given to the implication for the whole series.

For the Character ask: Shoot, Kastro, Kite, Illumi, Knuckle (HxH) and Sonic, Metal Bat, Genos, and Iaian (OPM)! (I have no apologies, you requested lots 😂)

Meve, you always go above and beyond when sending me asks. I love you so much. ❤ So many boys!!! I will talk about them all!! Actually, I'll split this ask into two parts. You may have accidentally sent this ask twice, but no worries! I'll use this as part one for the Hunter x Hunter boys. 💓

Shoot

Favorite thing about them: What can I say about Shoot that I haven't already gushed about constantly? 💓 One of my favorite things is his Nen, and how he uses it. I love his hands, and Hotel Raffelasia is such an interesting ability. Speaking of his hands...I love all of his features. His eyes, his face, his hair, his muscles... Getting distracted. There's so much that I can say. I love everything about him.

Least favorite thing about them: That we don't know more about him.

Favorite line: I have a lot of faves from him. One of them is when he tells Gon "I will live to thank you!" ❤

brOTP: Him and Knuckle, of course! 💓

OTP: I enjoy Nashuu from time to time. I think they're quite cute together.

nOTP: None that I can think of.

Random headcanon: I have a lot, but one of the biggest ones is that he'll use his Nen hands for everyday things when he's feeling lazy.

Unpopular opinion: He is definitely underrated. Even though I've been finding others that genuinely love him more and more everyday, which really warms my heart that I'm not the only one who does.

Song I associate with them: There's actually a lot of songs I associate with Shoot, which are mostly songs by Yuuji Ueda. 💓 This one, if I had to pick just one, and it is a song I hold very close to me and in my heart. For many reasons. Shine by The Northern Hues make me think of him, too.

Favorite picture of them: Oh Meve, there's too many to choose from, I love so many. Here's a few that I share all the time.

❤💍

Kastro

Favorite thing about them: He just seems so...eloquent and respectful. Kastro has this lovely energy about him that I really can't put into words well enough.

Least favorite thing about them: We don't know anything about him really. Too short lived of a character.

Favorite line: I love it when he asks Killua "So, what do you think of me?" ❤ It was so cute.

brOTP: I'm going to go on a whim and say that he would get along with Flashy Flash from One Punch Man.

OTP: I don't have any.

nOTP: None that I can think of.

Random headcanon: Off the top of my head, to make something up on the spot...he really loves the shoreline of the ocean. An ideal spot for him to live if he weren't focusing on living it up in the tournament tower. Actually now that I think about it...maybe he focused on being in the tower so he could live comfortably. Maybe he was struggling growing up, so he wanted to try and have a better life.

Unpopular opinion: Even though...he does look like the typical pretty boy, he had potential to be more of a solid character.

Song I associate with them: Why is he making me think of Legend Of Zelda? He reminds me of Link too much.

Favorite picture of them:

💕

Kite

Favorite thing about them: It's really hard to explain why I love Kite so much. He's just such a unique character in the series. He's so different. I guess I could say specifically how he is as a hunter. He's seen as someone so memorable, especially with Gon but with his little group he works with. Someone who is not only a hard working, respectful hunter but also a big hearted, kind and warm person towards others.

Least favorite thing about them: How in the world does he look up to someone like Ging, I will never understand. Get away from him, I will come over there, shoo.

Favorite line: When he lets out the softest "O-Oji-san?" at Gon when they reunite...is the cutest thing in the world.

brOTP: I genuinely would see him being good friends with Morel, or even Shoot!

OTP: I don't ship him with anyone.

nOTP: Ging and Kite.

Random headcanon: He's so use to wearing his hat to where if he has to take it off or can't find it at the time, he feels naked without it.

Unpopular opinion: He did not deserve what happened to him. At all. 💔 None of it.

Song I associate with them: Hm. I have never thought about this before. He actually gives me Animal Crossing vibes. A specific song would have to be one of the nighttime tracks in New Leaf while it's raining. Or maybe the nighttime tracks in the original AC. Which that specific one is heavily nostalgic for me. Relistening to all of the Animal Crossing music makes me cry. 💗

Favorite picture of them: I actually love the ones from 1999 Hunter x Hunter. 💓

He's so pretty! 💓💓💓

I do love both versions of him though. I love the 2011 Hunter x Hunter him just as much. Look at that smile. ❤ He's precious.

Illumi

Favorite thing about them: I just love the way he looks. He's pretty, yet scary. I also love his voice. Masaya Matsukaze is so good voicing him.

Least favorite thing about them: The way that he treats Killua. It just hurts me.

Favorite line: I honestly had to look back up on episodes, it's been so long since I watched him in episodes. Oh my gosh I still love the scene during the exams where he tells Hisoka "Okay, I'll be sleeping if you need me, good luck." LOL

brOTP: Illumi and Hisoka. They have a good dynamic, even though that might not be the best word to use.

OTP: I've seen Illumi and Hisoka together, and I honestly do like the idea of it sometimes.

nOTP: None that I'm aware of.

Random headcanon: I honestly can't think of any other than the obvious... When he does smile or laugh, he actually looks very sweet. Don't let that sweetness fool you though.

Unpopular opinion: Even though I like him to an extent, I did get tired of seeing him in the series. That was at the beginning of Hunter x Hunter when I watched it for the first time though. I don't have the same opinion anymore.

Song I associate with them: I can't think of any at all. He does remind me of what haunted house music sounds like.

Favorite picture of them: I just realized how much I love this panel, along with how Madhouse animated it in the show.

Illumi is very pretty during the beginning of Hunter x Hunter. What is he so pretty for?

Knuckle

Favorite thing about them: Everything! 💘💘💘 Literally everything, ugh, he is just perfect. His smile is easily my most favorite. His eyes are super pretty. His strength, his kindness, and his knowledge. I truthfully admire how smart he is. Uhm. His voice!! Oh my god his voice is just 💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞 So so sexy. Wataru Takagi is a gem. His physique... An endless list of things. He really is the perfect man to me. On top of being the typical Japanese delinquent, everyone knows at this point that they are my weakness, of course that makes all of Knuckle my favorite. He makes me melt into a puddle.

Least favorite thing about them: Nothing at all. Aside from not knowing more about his story.

Favorite line: Oh, too many. "Everyone has a heart. That's what I want to believe." ❤ This actually made me cry when he said it. I also really...really love his inner monologue during the Chimera Ant Arc. The entire thing. Perfect.

brOTP: Knuckle and Shoot, of course! 💓

OTP: I like Nashuu from time to time. Like I said, they can be quite cute together.

nOTP: None that I can think of.

Random headcanon: I have way too many for him. Hm... I do see him around his mid twenties, if not just a year younger than Shoot. There's no way this man could be younger than 23 or 24.

Unpopular opinion: It is a huge bummer we never got to see him with his hair down ever. Could you imagine. 💓💓💓💓💓

Song I associate with them: Everytime I listen to Generous Dimentions by TWRP, or Over Your Shoulder by Chromeo...it actually makes me think of him. 💘 Now I'm embarrassed, oh my goodness.

Favorite picture of them: Meve, there's too many I absolutely love, help

💘

Hunter X Hunter (2011) arcs from the worst to the best (personal opinion, just thought it would be fun to do)

Sky coliseum. I'm not even sure if this is the name of the arc and i don't care, this arc was pretty much unwatchable for me like I got REALLY bored but I think it was extremely necessary to introduce us to Nen. The moment when Gon gives the badge back to Hisoka is good but I mean the sec in general was so boring for me that I felt like it was never gonna end

The Zoldyck family. This is when I felt that the anime started being less interesting like obviously I'm super interested in Killua's family, assassin families are my shit but I just didn't really got into this mini arc idk why I felt like it wasn't good enough and then came the sky coliseum arc and well, that didn't help.

Greed Island. I really liked this arc it was like a breath of fresh air without losing the HxH vibe, the designs of the cards are beautiful and the entry of Bisky to make sure Gon and Killian get stronger in a way that doesn't run the plot or lacks of sense it's just great. She's an adorable character (and she suits the style of anime character that inspire my art) the fights started to give us an idea of new power ups and techniques for the future and the fact that it was the predecessor to the chimera ants arc (an arc I had wanted to see since the moment I stared the anime) gave it like a hundred points for me. Also look at the gif, that's beautiful animation you guys.

Alluka and healing Gon. This was a short arc focusing on two things: choosing the new president of the hunger asociation after the death of Netero and bringing Gon back to life after his fight with Pitou, for the first focus we get the zodiacs and one of them is Gon's dad Ging a character everyone wanted to see since chapter 1, it's a battle of intelligence and political control different to the hand combat of the previous arc (Chimera ants) and that mixes with the appearance of the Zoldyck family and I was so happy we got to see more of them, specially with the introduction of Alluka and her/his really interesting powers that would help the second focus: healing Gon. This was a painful arc for everyone and for Killua with the situation with both his best friend and his sibling, he was in so much pain (but we're all suckers for pain so we love it) and it made this arc really touching, this is also the last arc of the anime (the manga updates... Sometimes) so of course it had a lot of feelings.

The hunter exam. This is were all of us thought this was gonna be a happy adventure anime (unless, like me you were advised not to believe that. Thanks Pinterest) it's fucking adorable and gives the series a really strong start, makes you super excited to see the next episode and it's one of the most addictive arcs of HxH, here we get introduced to out main cast and some other recurrent characters so it's pretty great and after you have watched the whole series it becomes pretty nostalgic.

The Chimera ants arc. Here it is, the arc everyone thought would be at first place and the reason I was so eager to watch HxH because they said the arc was great and even with all my expectations it totally was, beautifully written and draw, it's really deep and very philosophical but with amazing action, animation, plot and the best rage in anime (Gon Vs Pitou) but it's not on number 1. Why? Because for me it's just a little too philosophical and there are endless chapters of philosophy talk and not enough action to light the heavy talk, and also because I have a preference for another arc that's actually the main reason LOL. This arc has some of the best if not the best villains I've seen because they're complex, they're overpowered but with the perfect writing and the perfect reasons, Meruem has a brilliant writing from the beginning to the end and so does Pitou, Yuppy and Puff (who I think is an extremely complex character that gave and immense amount of content to the story). The fights in this arc are fucking amazing I don't mean only Gon's (but yeah he had the best one I mean Wow) and the entry of Kite at the beginning, the connection, his death, what they did to him, I cried you guys I cried because that kind of things get me just to know that Kite couldn't rest even after death and Gon trying to save him was painful since all of us knew the truth, we knew it was a waste. The creations of the ants is great like honestly this is a great arc guys (and let's not forget that one scene when Yuppy and Puff bring the king back to life I mean LOL )

The Genei Ryodan. This is my favourite arc and it has to do a lot with the fact that Kurapika is my favourite character, he wasn't before this arc but he sure was after it, Kurapika has always been my kind of character: the eyes, blond, tragic past. So during this arc he was fucking amazing from the beginning to the end it amazes me because I felt like they didn't develop him a lot in the fist arc so his character came in like a wrecking ball in this arc. also the Genei Ryodan IS MY SHIT YOU GUYS I'm so intrigued and obsessed with the Spiders of teh Genei Ryodan, all of them are interesting in their own way and none of them are weak, Chrollo is such and enigmatic character and the scene when he controls the chaos like and orchestra is brilliant, to see the clashes between Gon and Kurapika's group against the Riodan is amazing and it never gets boring, I would watch this arc a million times and wouldn't get bored like ever, this was the point in which I actually started obsessing about HxH and I feel like people might over look this arc so the next time you watch it be sure to really see it because it's a masterpiece. Also the fight of Kurapika and Uvo is awesome and Kurapika's powers specially the judgement chain are dope. Ugh they are just so iconic.

I’m so weak for these omg Dx. Tagged by @alien-aniki

rules: answer the questions and tag some blogs you’d like to get to know better

nicknames: Cloud~

time right now: 3:47pm

last thing i googled: Umm I think it was Moscato wine

fave music artist: Same, I don’t have any one artist I’m in love with. I do really like Glass Animals and Fleet Foxes. song stuck in my head: Embarrassingly enough, 24K Magic - Bruno Mars. I have never in my life liked or voluntarily listened to that song, but it’s in my brain and it’s here to stay apparently. last movie i watched: (OMG so envious you saw Moonlight), I think probably Finding Dory? I don’t have the money or time to go to actual Cinema movies, I watched it on Netflix lmao. If you mean theaters then it was Don’t Breathe. Do not recommend.

last tv show i watched: I don’t watch tv so in lieu of that: Bungou Stray Dogs! I like it a lot!! It’s less cliche than most animes and the art is really beautiful. Definitely still doesn’t hold a candle to TG tho~ what i’m wearing now: Light blue jeans, fuzzy black and purple socks, and a navy blue polo with gold writing of my Western Riding Team logo when i created this blog: God I don’t even know... I made it eons ago because I met some guy on Omegle that told me tumblr was the shit. I didn’t get into it right away and ignored my account for like 2 years, then eventually figured it out. Maybe a year and half ago?

i post: Lots of horrendous memes and TG and YOI and KS. Occasional aesthetic stuff. Just whatever I like. I honestly made this blog with the intention of being selfish with it so the fact that anyone follows me baffles me (but thank you, I love my followers <3)

do i have other blogs: Nah, i’m all-in on this one

do i get asks regularly: I’ve gotten a few. Any of them that are nice I always post because I’m so happy to have people talk to me ^^

why did i choose my url: I’ve had variations of the username “CloudPrincess111″ since I had an account on Neopets honestly heheh. It’s just something really nostalgic for me at this point, just an identity that I’ve claimed as mine.

gender: Cis, so female~

hogwarts house: I want to say Ravenclaw (it’s what I get in most placement tests including Pottermore, and I have good grades and that sort of attitude), but I can be so doofy sometimes I have to be part Hufflepuff.

pokemon team: MYSTIC. So hard. One of my goats is named Mystic and she’s very sweet and good. Mystic owns every gym in the city where i live.

fave color: Still brown, still not sorry

average hours of sleep: Recently I’ve tried to average 8, but I often end up with 6-7. This year has been really easy on me though since I’m graduating soon, last year I probably averaged 4-5.

favorite characters: HOO BOY where to start. First Juuzou (tg:re) by like a HUGE margin. Seidou (tg:re) next, also a pretty big distance ahead of other characters. Then Hisoka and Levi oddly enough (hxh and aot respectively).Then in roughly descending order: Urie, Hide, Furuta, Shirazu, Naki, Ui, Arima, Kanae, Mutsuki, Itou, Hinami, Ayato, Keijin, Mizurou, Miyuki (all tg:re). Theeeen Gladion (Pokemon), Killua (hxh), and Yurio (yoi). Hooh. I have lots of love in my heart. I adopt new children every month honestly.

dream job: This is such a big question at this point in my life omg. Like, I’m on-track to be a veterinarian (going to the #1 vet school in the world next year somehow!!!) but I have no idea if it’ll make me happy. I’ve never really known how to be happy. But I like animals, so probably a career where I could work with and own them would be nice...?

number of blankets i sleep with: When it’s cold in the winter it’s a sheet, then a thick blue blanket, then over top a giant thin-ish blanket with the Hogwarts seal on it. In the summer I ditch the HP blanket.

Ummm tagging people last time got me a lukewarm response so I guess just any of my followers that wanna tell me about themselves I’d love to hear it ^^ Make sure to tag me so I see it~
