I hate Sakura the matchmaker. I hate matchmaking in general. People should come together naturally not because your giggly googly friends hooked you up.

That redeem her to NH.

lol at the random Suna medic in the latest episode. Gotta make sure Sakura has no role what's so ever.

 

Medical ninja? Nothing special, they're a dime a dozen.

 

Female Hyuuga? Rare as hell, so the most recurring one must be treated as a Goddess.( for real, I have only seen male filler Hyuuga, despite the fact that they are one of the largest clans in Konoha.)

 

I tripped over several medical ninja on my way to the bathroom.

 

But a female Hyuuga!?

Oh my god is Ichabod a manwhore?

 

No. Ichabod is still married and always affectionate to Katrina, despite the stuff they're currently going through. With Abbie, however, its more platonic and more like Bro/Sis-type, but its funny.

1,No its not the ending that makes me write rough , its how I always  write  you can say its my slang its a habit  I know its not looking good but sometimes I can't help it and write more roughly so to say.


Oh, so the two-fisted speech is a natural part of your state of mind. That's an important aspect to consider whenever talking with you. Thank you for the warning.
 

2.Well I don't know exactly  how much the sales has dropped  compared to the last time but I do know that compared to the other manga's Naruto isn't doing well as it used to be looking at the statistic volume by volume Naruto's sales drops constantly  for a manga well know such as Naruto when the % should be rising when its in its peak the % is actually declining   that's not looking good  it means the quality is bad and its lost its appeal . Its not about how much the sales has been decreasing but its the image the products gets with this statistics in the eyes of the public and the critics that will not go well.

4.Yes I already pointed that out fillers are one of the problem along with its bad animation . But I partially  disagree with your last part  even when SP comes back to the main story line  its already lost the respect from its viewers it affects their reputation which makes a part of their audience leave the anime for good even when the plot line returns bc people are feed up with their BS  and I've witnessed this personally  many of us left the anime and never returned to it but find other anime's to enjoy .  Basically its a very bad marketing that SP does in here bc it doesn't attract any new potential viewers by doing this.

6.Well that's your personal opinion  so the only thing we can do is wait to see what is what I'm aware that not everyone think like us and its ok  but I really don't think their rating will go even slightly up from what I've seen so far , SP has done more then enough to kitten with the fans and lose respect  the hatred for them is very  real  but we'll see how it plays out .

 
What drives commercial success is appealing to the largest demographic. Kishi and Pierrot's marketing tactics were dishonest and insensitive to how the masses would react, but it ultimately paid off because their movie is cashing in on the nH/SS fans, the masturbatory otakus (a segment of their targeted market which the studio members can familiarise themselves with all too well since they've been indulging in perverted fantasies as far back as Part 1 with Hinata who was just barely of age according to Japanese legal standards), Sasuke fans, and anyone gullible enough to travel out to their local theatres because they just want to see the latest Naruto film.

To us and for a large number of people, "The Last" is a farce built on the ashes of a once crumbling story with characters already damaged and cracked promises that never saw the light of day after being assured or implied. However, whatever percentage of those who are disenfranchised may feel, it's not going to detract from the fact that this movie was tailor made for appealing to the largest amount of fans that Pierrot can grasp their hands on. Did it alienate another segment of their population? Of course. But the decision they made was probably the least damaging, at least in their eyes. How this will impact the anime series has yet to be seen. Do you know what the ratings were like when the canon story was still being aired shortly after "The Last" was released? That's the rating estimate we want to see for any hard evidence of the anime tanking.

And even if this predominant anti-fan majority did stomp their collective feet down and snub Pierrot's cash-grabbing antics, that's not going to hinder the studio from continuing on with the set course in their anime. They've spent the past 12 or so years animating Naruto. It's highly unlikely that they would be deterred from finishing what they've spent over a decade working on. More than that, enough people will continue watching the anime to keep them noticeable. They may never see the light of a top 10 ranking position again, but I suspect that there will be just enough support to guarantee them at least a place in the top 30/50 anime once they redouble their efforts by giving canon scenarios like the Guy vs Madara fight the attention and quality it needs to earn the studio back some of its lost respect with their community (if it's even on the same level as the quality used when Madara took on the Alliance forces then I could see Naruto briefly reentering the top 10).
 

5. The site its basically on the level of Narutoget.com and along with it  its one of the first Naruto anime sites to put out the episode out there  and it has its own sub forum  for discussing  the anime episodes as well as the manga . Well I didn't say that they are content  but the NH fanbase there it  is , the casual fans at that time like myself weren't  and there was always complaining  by how bad the anime was  even by the NH fans SP was being butchered as hell .

 
Okay, so that proves how many of the fans there are discontent with the lack of effort being given to the art and animation quality. Those motives for refusing to continue supporting Pierrot are technical-based, not because they resent the execution of their shoujo romance or because they felt the ending was too inconclusive or that they disagreed with how the characters were treated.

Yeah exactly I even get criticized by friends for it  LOL XD .

 

1/2. I agree  the reasons for why they did this and how they did it by fraud are disgusting  but whether  it paid of to them catering to the otakus/NH/SS is remained to be seen  we really need to know how much it cost them all the marketing and production of the movie overall , we can only come someone comes out and give us the necessary info  until then we can only view it as the highest grossing Naruto movie with not receiving so many good critics  an that's it .   I don't know the ratings  but I believe @LuckyChi 7 knows them for the manga volumes try  ask him .

 

 

3. We'll have to wait and see about that to bc the anime wasn't doing good with the canon also as they were altering the story by adding some new ridiculous material between it  fans were pissed about this to , the only thing people may follow it are those who don't give kitten about Naruto overall and only see the battles if they don't screw  even that up  which I doubt  when its SP into question .

 

4.Well mainly yes at least  the people who are left in there but those are NH/Otakus and Battle oriented fans  also the traffic is drastically lowered  there's not many people posting  only a few  it was used to be full of traffic  , Now they are fitting bc one side hates the fillers while the other is ok with it bc they are Perving on Fuu :facepalm:

80 pages? What, you have some sort of life or something? lol  :chuckle:

 

I'll try to gather what info I can recall below. I don't know how much you already know.

 

Well, wasn't there talk about some secret that came with the last volume? Please don't tell me it was just those two extra pages.

 

They basically just added and altered one or two panels. No real corrections - it's still the same stuff that it was. Tricksie has gathered together the currently known alterations and additions in the Naruto Volume 72 thread

 

http://www.narusaku....e=3#entry752834

 

There was some sort of SasukeNaruto collectors thing included, which was basically a pic of the two being chummy to my recollection (trying to get back the SNS fans, are we?), but overall not much else.

 

 

 

 

Lol! Then I realy must be behind you since I have no idead what NS DVD cover you speak of! :D

 

For the latest Naruto Shippuden DVD release, which to my knowledge also features the magical NH handhold of lurve, the cover is of Naruto being healed by Sakura lol

 

http://www.chatte-ge...ga-dvd-release/

 

Oh, there was also a pic of Naruto and Sasuke, with Bolt and Salad positioned underneath them. As far as I'm aware, that's all that's happened recently, but I don't know how much.

 

If I've missed something, feel free to correct me!
