That vid is completely out of character because he called her something other than "Lois", "vile woman" etc. I miss the old stewie. 

Actually, wasn't that episode about him finally respecting Lois after so long, and Lois actually got tired of Stewie being too happy with her?

Yeah probably. 

 

I just kind of miss the old family guy. Don't get me wrong its still funny, but back then people had their own distinct personalities and characteristics (now they all just use Seth Macfarlane humor) and it wasn't afraid to show heart back then, I actually liked some of the heart warming scenes that peter or Brian would have with any of the other characters

 

Nowadays those "heart to heart moments" don't really amount to much like when Meg was having that heart to heart with Brian why she accepts being abused because it makes the family feel better (as oppose to before when Meg was more than just a comedic verbal punching bag) we know this moment holds no wait because its just gonna return to the status quo of everyone treating each other like kitten. 

 

It traded heart for shock humor to appease the growing teenage and adolescent fans that it attracts.

I haven't seen the later ones, the one that is now in HD.

So wait, now it's trying to have a moral lesson? Because back then, they can be, um, uncomfortable in terms of humor. Like using a reference to real life problem. Not an event or at least just that, but people with terrible disease. But other than that, it is pretty funny. Now, well I haven't seen it in a while, so I don't know what happened.

it was viz translation they dont use suffix

 

 

Kind of weird that Naruto refers to Kushina as his "Ma"

 

Usually, shounen characters are a bit gruffer when addressing people. Inuyasha called his mother "ofukuro," if memory serves, which is a very informal and borderline rude way of saying it. Ichigo calls his father "oyaji," about which we can say the same thing. And didn't Ed call his father "a [insert expletive here] father" after the battle against Father? 

 

Yeah, it's a strange commonality.

Yeah probably.

I stopped watching after Season 7 or 8. I will watch the Simpsons crossover but that's it.

Those make sense because it sort of fits with their charcaters InuYasha is always portrayed as a jerk with a  heart of gold, Ed was portrayed as resenting his dad for leaving them, Ichigo is constantly annoyed by his dad and talks to him more like their siblings then father and son

 

whats weird with calling Kushina "ma" is that it makes him sound like a redneck.

But here's the thing: Naruto didn't really have a proper upbringing. He was on his own, so he was not able to pick up on a lot of social cues and niceties, which others were able to learn. That's why he's so oblivious to Sakura's flirtation and Hinata's feelings for him, for example, and he provokes Sakura with his lack of tact and thought, which, normally, other people would display, especially in public. Of course, he's matured and, as a rather intelligent kid (although not in the conventional sense), has been able to pick up on a few things along the way. Another thing that comes to mind is that since Naruto was deprived of his parents' love, he wanted a chance to be close to them, so perhaps this way of addressing her was his way of bridging the gap and being able to quickly connect with her? On that note, I believe he calls his father "otou-chan," too, which would kind of be along the same vein.

 

(Come to think of it, Inuyasha's story is kind of similar in this regard, except Kagome's "sits" kept him in check, in that case. Overall, though, by the end of the story, he did become a bit more reserved and thoughtful.)

Question time.

How do you want the Naruto and Sasuke fight to end? Do you want Naruto to understand that Sasuke made his decision, and he can't be really be saved or do you want a most likely to happen, happy ending where everyone lives happily ever after, with no more wars and there's peace and harmony? Or maybe another way.

We might as well have Naruto defeat Sasuke without saving him, everyone gave up on him except him even Itachi, Sakura and Kakashi.

 

I think it would be best if Naruto defeats Sasuke TNJs him, then Sasuke pulls the last of his strength to pull a Nagato and save everyone else.

The way I'd want it to end would be with Naruto not being able to finish Sasuke, since he's still holding onto some hope that Sasuke will come back. Sakura comes from behind, stabbing him in the back with a kunai because she's finally realized that Sasuke will never be the same Sasuke again, and that Team 7 will probably never have the happy ending she's always wanted. They'll probably be a lot of crying on both of their parts, but they'll find comfort in one another and embrace each other in a deep hug while it's raining. Kakashi will shed one small tear from his eye, since Team 7 is officially dead forever.

Truth be told Sakura and Kakashi gave up on Sasuke because both of them are smarter than Naruto, and of course less obsessed.

And I do see a Nagato ending as well, but I'm really hoping we're not going to get that.

It would be nice to see Sakura deliver the final blow to Sasuke, but it would also prove that Naruto's resolve is weak. That he hasn't grow at all.

As the main character he failed in saving Sasuke and he failed in growing up.

Yes please.

This is the ending I actually want. I want Sasuke to stay true to his character for once in his life, and die in the end as the villain. I want Naruto to realize that Sasuke can't be saved because he doesn't want to be saved. For me this type of ending would be great for both Naruto and Sasuke.

No, I totally agree. But if Naruto does end up killing Sasuke in the end, then this defeats the entire purpose of everything from the LOI arc.

Good point. Well, another theory I've been hearing is that they could seal Sasuke into the ninja tools Tenten had. So Naruto wouldn't exactly have to kill Sasuke then.

Yeah but that still ends up in the same scenario. Naruto still fails in saving Sasuke or understanding that not everyone can be saved. 

[六道仙人]

i guess that something bad will happen to naruto's right hand...

I have been saying that for a while. Sasuke is the only one to do the harm now.

[六道仙人]

maybe it's due to amaterasu?

@nostradamus
I don't think sasuke will die as villain nor do I think he is a villain either.

It really depend on whether naruto would end in part 2 or there would be part 3.
If it's end in part 2, I can see naruto and sasuke will laugh at each other after they final clash create a harmony symbol and dispel the tsukoyomi. Sasuke could live in konoha or travel along with his team taka.

If part 3 happen, naruto and sasuke final clash will create harmony symbol that will dispel the tsukoyomi even thought sasuke doesn't have intent to do that. Sasuke will acknowledge naruto like madara to hashirama and naruto will understand that sasuke already save and he took a different route than naruto. Thus setting their final fight in part 3.

Naruto win in both scenario.

[Nostradamus]

My guess is another Chidori vs Rasengan. But this time both of them use all they got. It will be the ultimate Chidori and Rasengan clash.
