Master LuckyChi, I like the sound of that lol 

 

Just don't let it give you a big head, Chi °3° That's the last thing anyone would want!

He's much better than Naruto and Sasuke combined and I really love his interaction with the female chick their just too funny together. 

 

Personally, I think the chick is pretty annoying, she's the only weak spot in this series so far.

 

Is the volume 1 of Sukedachi Nine out in Japan yet? Some manga series only get translated once the volumes are out...

I don't and never like the idea of love triangle anyway. Because someone will be sacrifice and ended up alone or with the person they don't like.

 

From now on i try my best to avoid any manga that have love triangle in it. Thanks to SP and Kishi now i have phobia of love triangle.

Naruto is slowly but surely dying. My bet is 1 year, 2 at most it will last.

 

Dragon Ball ended long ago, after Kid Majin Buu defeated, and forever remembered and loved by its fans, and now the new sequel its finally airing Dragon Ball Super. Because so many fans wants it.

 

If naruto series dies can the same story that happen to Dragon Ball happen to naruto too??

OMG !!! What I just saw !!!! Hana yori Dango season 2 !!!!! omg ! My favorite shojo !!

Dunno, do you have the source?

[Konoha'sCrimsonFox]

Dunno, do you have the source?

 There was one Tumblur source back in Chatte's old thread. I forgot the tumblr user's name. i think it was heavenheart (something like that). She was also the one that posted on tumbler that she got in contact with a KakaIruka or NaruSasu fan from Japan and she posted the Japanese fan's response on tumlbr. 

 

I was able to copy and paste TL comment made by HH. 

 

 I have seen a lot of posts about The Last being a huge success and being praised lately. Before you make it seem like this was the best movie just because it made more money than the previous Naruto movies do not forget that:

1. The Last refused refunds - it has been said over and over again and already confirmed many times by Japanese fans who bought tickets from the pre-sales because it came with free Naruto, Kakashi and Sasuke stuff that this is the first Naruto movie to ever refuse its fans refunds. This is one of the main reasons fans were pissed.
2. The Last had false advertising - the fact that this movie was advertised as the last Naruto movie and it being a conclusion to a 15 year old series puts a huge impact and heaviness on the movie. Fans would want to watch their favorite story’s conclusion and even non-fans would want to see the ending. This was supposed to be chapter 699.5 and it promised to tie all loose ends which it didn’t. Not to talk about the fact that it was advertised as a Team 7 central movie in the beginning and promising a lot of Kakashi being Hokage, Sasuke and Naruto being grown ups. Given Hinata was the main character of this movie, her VA wasn’t the one to promote the movie. Naruto, Kakashi and Sasuke (as well as their VA) were the ones to promote and spread it. Hinata’s design and role wasn’t revealed before the pre-sales were over. They used the most famous characters in order to bring more people.
3. The Last had one of the worst outcomes - despite all of the posts about TL being successful it didn’t make a lot of positive outcome. In the contrary, the negativity that surrounded the movie made it have the worst transition than any Naruto movie ever. After the premiere there were many anti The Last petitions and it lead to Naruto’s nickname in Japan being “the worst scumbag” and people calling Hinata “selfish”.
4. Money doesn’t always mean success and ratings usually matter more - the ratings of The Last are the worst rating to a Naruto movie ever. Even Blood Prison which wasn’t very much liked in Japan got 3 stars while TL is the first movie to ever be under 3 stars.
5. Studio Pierrot trying damage control - after the fans exploded and showed their enormous negative opinions on YJ, SP went to lengths as to delete 2 of the most liked negative comments with more than 200 in order to keep the ratings high. This didn’t go unnoticed and fans complained in the social media calling SP “unprofessional”.
6. The Last being more successful than RTN - there are people who don’t understand why we say RTN is still better marketing wise than TL. Let me explain: RTN’s production costed 4 million. Only from the screenings in Japan it made around 12 million (1.49-1.5 billion yen). This means that RTN not only won their production money but it even made 3 times its cost.  And we aren’t even counting in the DVD sales, the merchandise like extra voice DVD’s, posters etc. which made it have around 16-17 million only in Japan. Considering the movie was dubbed, its premiere in Philippines was welcomed and it sold well even out of Japan we can assume it made even more money. Now for The Last to be as successful as RTN it has to made around 48 million (and I’m even talking about it being equal with RTN, not better). The production costed 12 million. This is the most expensive Naruto movie till this day. Now the movie made 1.94 billion yen which is about 16-17 million. It covered its production but let’s not forget the heavy advertising, the merchandise such as posters, toys, TL themed restaurants, interviews etc cost way more than the production usually. Also according to fans from Twitter the merchandise isn’t selling well and toys are removed from stores because they are getting dust and replaced with better merchandise which is selling more. The only thing which was successful was Nana Mizuki’s song which many fans admitted they bought because of Nana Mizuki herself and not the show.I remind you that the merchandise is prepared before the movie is even shown. Which means SP cannot bring their money back from the toys that aren’t sold but the cannot also change it because it was obvious that they did expect it to be selling well which didn’t happen. The Last didn’t surpass the 2 billion yen it was supposed to reach in its homeland was delayed in many other countries which is very unusual. 
7. RTN being SP’s last success - actually the last time Studio Pierrot actually received some positive outcome was when RTN was showed on New Years Eve which made 2.1%-2.3% ratings. Actually the anime’s ratings have been dropping since the ending and Naruto isn’t even a part from the Top Weekly Animes List. (even with fillers it never dropped from #7).

I don't know. Budget was never announced as far as I'm concerned.

[Konoha'sCrimsonFox]

Wow so we don't know who's telling the truth. NHer claimed that the budget for TL was no where near 12 million.

[Bail o' Lies]

Some people have guess that it is at least 12 million due to all the effects and effort put into it(though not the story). Also don't forget the ads and other stuff they did.

So far we don't really know what was the budget for that movie. The 12 million dollars is just a rumor, however we can safely say the movie was expensive to produce because of the animations, the interviews which actors are paid to do and all the advertising that was done for the movie. And most of the time the advertising is the most expensive.

I just start watching Hunter x Hunter, and i have to say its far more better than "You know what manga" is. But i can't help but notice there's a lot things in common [or copycat] between the 2. I'm gonna bring 2 things for example that really match, first is the Spider gang from HxH and Akatsuki and second is, the main protagonist Gon background is almost the same as Naruto, Gon father is legendary Hunter and he dream to become hunter just like his father, just like Naruto wants to become hokage just like his father, both raise without parents. And there is some minor things like Killua technique to rip out people heart, just like Sasuke chidori that always aim/stab the target heart, also Killua came from famous assassin's family, like Sasuke came from famous uchiha clan. And the hunter exam is somehow reminds me a lot of chunnin exam. Coincidence??

 

Lol i don't know which one came first, who copycat who, because this can't be coincidence.
