Aw man.

So manga are released according to US time?

I'm guessing that the mangapanda, mangastream and the rest of them are mostly USAnian so they follow their own timezone.

[Quinny52]

It's coming up to midnight here in the UK (0.00 GMT), so I'll head off to sleep and like sushi, I should be reading it by morning.

I'll enjoy this sleep as best I can, because I might not like what I wake up to.

If a release is scheduled for Wednesday in Japan, I usually see it on Manga Panda first. The time window fluctuates and is by no means set in stone. The chapter could appear at any time.

But a ballpark guess based on average posting times would be:

GMT (London) = Wednesday, between 4:00am and 8:00am


So whatever your timezone is relevant to GMT will give your estimated time window. For example:

GMT-5.00 (USA/Canada Eastern) = Tuesday, between 11:00pm and 03:00am
GMT-8.00 (USA/Canada Pacific) = Tuesday, between 8:00pm and midnight Wednesday
GMT+5.30 (Mumbai, India) = Wednesday, between 9:00am and 1:00pm
GMT+7.00 (Indonesia) = Wednesday, between 11:00am and 3:00pm

Hope this helps.

Here in Europe, the chapter is usually out by the time I get around to reading it around noon or early afternoon on Wednesdays. It probably comes out sometime during the morning but as I am still sleeping energetically living my life, I catch it a little later.

It was like that to me before, it came out around 12:00-12:30. Now it comes out when I wake up. :3

Good night!

You are from Norway? I'm from Finland. Aren't you guys like an hour or two behind us? (See how well I know the local geography and stuff?) Night.

My body is ready, Kishimoto.

This week, expect to deal with fans losing their minds over the chapter cover, at the very least. We already know it features Naruto and Hinata. It may not be a NaruHina cover, per say, but I know some fans will want to flaunt it. Hopefully that will be our only concern this week.

Like most have already said, I'm expecting Kishimoto to ignore the pairing sub-plot for another handful of chapters. We'll know if we're still in the game or not in a few weeks. In the mean time, let's hope that Sakura finally gets some significant panel time!

EDIT: I was wrong about Naruto and Hinata being featured on the color spread. Turns out, it was just speculation.

What do you mean what is the cover?

[naruto-z]

Just so you guys no, it won't be for another 5-6 hours, at earliest, for the chapter to be released. Just go to bed and read it in the morning

There's news about the cover?


Hinata and Naruto will be fighting together at least for a moment, so any success they have will be viewed as a pairing moment. There's no doubt in my mind unless something explicit NS happens this will be viewed as another NH chapter.

Probably. If nothing much happens in it besides Naruto & Hinata fighting, I think it's pretty dumb to be considered a pairing moment. It's just fighting. Something to enjoy sure but not actually pairing-related. Besides, wasn't 615 their "pairing" moment? I'm not saying the unbearable NH-fest will end quite yet but if it's just fighting I don't think people should count it.

I'm flashbacking to the Pain arc scenerio. A big NH moment would happen (Then it was the confession. Now I'm pretty sure it was 615), Kishimoto throws off everyone out there. A few chapters pass with no pairing hints, leaving the fandom in suspense and trying to guess what position the pairings are in. Then bam: Huge NaruSaku moment that overpowers the NH moment (Then it was the Hug. Now ... to be continued). I'm guessing the big NaruSaku moment might have something to do with either the ObiRin parallel or Sakura's "We'll do this together!" speech.

If Kishimoto proves my speculation right, then "Pain Arc Scenerio" officially needs to be new trope.

It was confirmed a week or so ago, either in the debate thread or this thread, that the color spread features Naruto and Hinata. The title of the chapter is "Hokage", and it says, "Naruto has found his answer" on it, (or something similar to that, like "Naruto has made his decision"). I remember this because some fans took it out of context, claiming it meant Naruto has an answer for Hinata, when it's actually referring to his answer to Obito.

There's more than just that on the cover, or color spread, (whatever it is), but I can't remember the details.

Does anyone else know what I'm talking about? I remember seeing a post about this last week...

Ah kitten Kishi, what's he doing.
Whether it was from his answer to Obito or otherwise --- a colorspread of Hinata/Naruto ain't something to look forward too.

No, but it is just a cover, and there have been plenty that feature Naruto and Sakura. I don't mind seeing one with Hinata and Naruto.

Where did you hear that.

[Fenris]

Just because Hinata and Naruto may be fighting together in the upcoming chapter, by all means does not mean they're considered couple, or have the chance to be one.
Naruto has fought with many other people before; including Tsunade, (secretshippershh), Shizune, and even other females. But they're not couples.

I know what are you talking about, but the Naruto/Hinata cover part was the translator guess. I remember that there's a script of the preview. Then, there's no script for the color spread being NH. There is a color spread, yes, but NH one is not confirmed. Is there a possibility? Sure. It's anyone guess from this point forward. To be honest, it's hard to say if Kishi even serious about NH. He usually fan service for its fans and then it's done. Otherwise, why not get a hug from Hinata? What good does it accomplish Sakura hugging Naruto if it meant nothing in the first place? Lol, I still remember the people speculated that Naruto will give Hinata the flower that he received by Konan. When I think about it, NH being canon actually created multiple plot holes. I revisited old memories and man, I can't believe how people can't support Naruto. I feel really bad for him.

[Fenris]

^ yeah, Plus... people seem to kinda forgetting RTN lol.
There was tons of NaruSaku and that was from Kishi.

Ooooooh!!! Okay! Thank you for clearing that up.
I thought that he or she confirmed that it would feature Naruto and Hinata; I didn't see the part about it being a prediction.

Sorry about the misunderstanding, everyone!
