Are you aware that metaphors and similes have purpose?Kishimoto would not write it without a purpose

To make the Juubi sound imposing and powerful.Why did Kishimoto say that to the power of Juubi?
- 434

So, Kishimoto was just making things up?
He's letting us know that Juubi is this strong

Stop ducking and dodging my question, do you know what metaphors and similes are?You have no proof that Kishimoto said those words for that reason

I know you want to say those words is metaphors and similes but you have no proff of it

So you're just making things up about the writer's intentions behind those words

Sounds like that’s another thread you should make.So you're just making things up about the writer's intentions behind those words
- 18,886

I’m going to take that as a no you don’t. They are literary devices used to make non-literal comparisons in order to amplify the feeling associated with whatever is being compared. Does that make sense to you, or do you need a more in depth explanation?I already said i know but you have no proff that Kishimoto said those words just for it

I know. The problem is, you don't know whether it's the writer's intention behind those words or not. You can't just make claims, as I can also claim that the writer's intention was to provide information about the power of Juubi, and I can claim another statements were just metaphors and similes. You need to provide reasons and evidence.

No one knows Kishimoto’s intent without asking the dude directly. You presuppose the authors intent every time you make a claim about the story. Total non factor in this conversation. I’ve provided just as much evidence as you have for your claim that it’s a hyper literal statement, so please, you first, present the evidence.
- 434
- 64
No, not like that. For example Hebi Sasuke having a statement about the speed of light, but EMS Sasuke get blitzed by Mindless Juubito, so that statement is incorrect. Where's the evidence you provide? From the beginning, you just said it's metaphors and similes without any evidence.
- 18,886

Lol buddy you initiated with the first claim that Juubi is small planet. So the burden of proof rn falls on you. Provide evidence for small planet Juubi, or you’re just making a random unsubstantiated claim. Or you can concede by failing to fulfill your burden

That’s not evidence that’s just the claim. Your interpretation is that that claim is literal, provide evidence it is literal. You haven’t fulfilled any burden of proof gooberHere you go

Well, those words are saying that, so typically they are considered to mean what they usually mean. And you're saying it means something else, right? Now, prove it.
- 18,886
- 27,576
Prove that phrase is usually taken literally. I’ve got a flight so you got plenty of time to think of an actual argument buddy
- 434
- 64
Well, the basic meaning of those words is like that. You should be the one to prove it because you're trying to deviate from its basic meaning.
- 18,886
- 27,576
I’m not deviating from its basic meaning. You realize most similes use as or like, you could read aloud the statement and check if it uses as or like. So the fact it uses like means that interpreting it as a simile does not deviate from the basic meaning of the words whatsoever. It’s a valid interpretation of the statement. You need to prove it is literal, since you made the initial claim that it’s literal. Right now you’re getting low diffed by equal interpretation.

Show scans for this.

Yeah, but all that means is Naruto was in the hospital for 3 Months based on this scan as well as various other situations in Chapter 238, such as Choji still recovering from the Fight with Jirobo as well as Kiba having not spoken with the others regarding the mission.
It's kinda a stretch tbh to suggest the Curry of Life filler took place in this timespan, given these statements and context.
