Hopefully it's out and this knot in my stomach will go away once I see (hopefully) there isn't nothing related to NH or SS.

I hope Narunaru comes soon D:

I guess it's not really the interview in particular i'm worried about, I guess it's just the other translations that other fandoms will be forcing down our throats. Like saying: ''No! You NS fans are so dead wrong! Kishi loves Hinata more! Kishi are going to make them married and have 10's of thousands of babie Ninja's with ultimate sexy Jutsu's BlaaaH!" Even if Kishi said nothing remotely related to Hinata anyway...


Hmm. I hope Kishi said nothing pairing related. I'm not even going to check out other interviews/translations, just gonna wait for Narunaru to come and translate when he has time At least this site has unbiased. I don't trust anything translation wise from NF, either..

Maybe a bit, but it can't be helped, the anticipation is killing me. It could be good news too. And ciardha says that Sakura is more popular than Hinata among the Japanese fandoms, it's just the West that throws her out of control. So we have that backing us up, too. So HOPEFULLY, maybe hopefully, Hinata wont be mentioned..

Err.... as of the latest character poll, Hinata actually beats her by one position. Although it's quite understandable.

Why do they even like Hinata so much.. like seriously. She's not even a main character. Not bashing, but seriously.. I don't find anything interesting about her besides the fact that she's just a character. They treat Sakura, the heroine, like kitten and Hinata, the background character like a freaking Goddess.

Actually, her position is very reasonable. Her confession was the climax of her character development so it's not surprising to see her above Sakura. Had the character popularity poll been taken before her confession, I'd say her position would be below.

True. the confession did kinda complete her character. And was again countered by two NS moments - the hug / the "Hinata loves Naruto..?

Q: where would you change if you could go back

A: I d draw kakashi without his mask as now fans expectations got too high that whatever i draw some of them would get disappointed *laugh*

Q: when did you decide to make naruto and sasuke go different ninja way?

A: from the beginning.

Q: whats gonna happen to sasuke through next year?

A: Sasuke has a lot of episodes to tell. his appearance will be more frequent next year.

Q: which char do you want to play as on generations?

A: Sasuke.


That's all for QA folks, the rest was Kishimoto hand drawing manga panels and the VA acting them

Very short this time, but there will be more questions asked tomorrow. Maybe Sakura's VA will ask something this time.

I for one always look forward to Jump Festa and I don't even mind the fake pairing translations. To me, it doesn't even impact me or annoy me anymore because by now I'm used to other fandoms. But if Kishimoto does pull out any Narusaku talk I'll still appreciate it. I'm not as nervous as others, more like excited for my anticipation of the continuation of the story.

[Codus N]

naruto-z, do you think you can track down narunaru and hack him and that if he doesn't get back to working on the translations thread, you will make his life a living hell??

J/k. But seriously, we need him now more than ever as it is the most crucial moment for us.

Yeah, it's a fluke, happened in part 1 with the poll that was done shortly after the time of the HinataxNeiji Chunin exams fight too. Whenever any character has more of a focus in an arc around the time of a poll their numbers go up, except for Naruto and Sakura who stay pretty consistent over all- especially Sakura who is almost always the top female character, Naruto fluctuates between around 1-3 and he's the title character. Sasuke out polled him in a few and/or Kakashi in a few. In the Japanese Jump polls Sakura has been the top female character, except for the two polls done right around the time where Hinata got a significant story moment, and even in those two Sakura was right behind Hinata in the rankings. I think due to cultural differences Sakura is consistently less popular than Hinata in the west. (plus the fact in the west more people watch the anime than read the manga, where in Japan millions read the manga where only thousands watch the anime... and we know how the anime distorts the storyline and characterization...) Interestingly, for some reason Temari is more popular in the west than in Japan (but it seems to be from what I've seen of the ShikaTem shippers online not due to any accurate character portrayal either from the manga or anime. The fanart portrays her as much more passive than the character is in either the manga or anime and this off-characterization seems to be liked by a lot of naruhina shippers. I don't know where this passive Temari portrayal comes from as even in the anime it's rather obvious she's a tsundere type, even more brash than Sakura, in fact, brash and sarcastic at that....

Haha, trust me I wish I could. But I have not been in contact with Narunaru since his/her disappearance and this site was my only source of communication with them. If I had a say, I'd say that we should find another worthy translator(s) or we all go an buy Rosetta stone an learn Japanese
