Then they're gonna save those up for "Ruruto Three Red Spiral New Age Hurricane"How would y'all feel if the Shinju end up being the main villains of the story, and no more Otsutsuki are introduced? Like no clan origin, no more Otsutsuki characters except Shibai, etc. Do y'all think we know enough about the Otsutsuki currently?

Definitely notDo y'all think we know enough about the Otsutsuki currently?
Yeah, no, definitely not.How would y'all feel if the Shinju end up being the main villains of the story, and no more Otsutsuki are introduced? Like no clan origin, no more Otsutsuki characters except Shibai, etc. Do y'all think we know enough about the Otsutsuki currently?
Here's a thought. The Shinju are big on base instinct vs intelligence right? They are prolly the least evolved inteligent species. Otsutsuki consider themselves at the other end of this spectrum and consider every other species as inferior creatures. What if in a turn of events we find out that the need for becoming an Otsutsuki god was just their base instinct all along and they were created this way to balance out the forces of creation. They just can't help it. And Shibai only realised this after ascension. This would make a great opportunity for introducing a new Otsutsuki who is free from this instinct and is ready to betray the clan. This would bring more variety too. Kaguya so far would be the only one to show any conflict within her between her instincts and her love for her children.Yeah, no, definitely not.
There's still a metric shit ton of things we can delve into with the Otsutsuki. Whether or not we will, though, is anyone's guess. I hope we at least get something in a Databook or whatever.
But tbh, I am absolutely dreading getting another "muh chakra fruit" style villain, as they're all just boring Kaguya re-skins. If we get more Otsutsuki, I hope they do something different and unique with them. And to be fair, Shibai is a bit different, so I'm excited about that direction.
As for what I'm hoping to find out at some point, learning about their origins and the inner workings of their society would be dope.
And it's pretty interesting that she also became a Shinju herself. InterestingHere's a thought. The Shinju are big on base instinct vs intelligence right?

This would be an epic war arc.I was hoping tentails evolving and gaining ego and turning against them is a risk the otsusuki found out a long time ago can happen and as such strict measures were giving so as "shinjutsu" the key factor in helping them evolve was placed as far from them as possible. Then this present crisis on earth would somehow reach the otsusuki via maybe momoshiki reporting or them sensing it eventually. This would now force the main clan to now have to delegate considerable force to take down the evolved god trees and drastic measures as far as just marking the planet a dead zone and trying to wipe it off the map with it's contents if it comes to that. This would now lead to a threeway between earth, otsusuki and the shinju. From there lore on the otsusuki would come out. But I doubt it would head in this direction
so is killing the uchiha, so is leaving the village, becoming a rogue shinobi ect ect, those are things hokages have allowed, the immediate threats are danzo,the elders and the Fugaku and co.The Immediate Threats are the Elders and Danzou. Attacking them is Treason and War at that time.
the root isnt strong enough to overthrow the entire uchiha clan+the hidden leaf, which is why they had to work in secret with underhanded tactics, Danzo only became hokage after Tsunade fell into a comaDeescalation isn’t possible in that Scenario. Even if you solely attacked Danzou, tue Root will not be quiet.
yes it is, the elders can cry fowl all they want, they advisors not dictators, hokage's can ignore their advice.Deescalation isn’t possible and the elders would cry foul ontop of that. Deescalation isn’t possible in that scenario either.
no he wasnt, he was actively opposed to it and along with itachi were planning to deescalated the situation, he "ran out of time" because of danzo's fear mongering, the death of shisui and the approaching date of the coup, most of which wouldnt be applicable if measures are taken to target the immediate threats early on.Hiruzen was privy to everything and sanctioned it.
He wouldnt need to attack the hokageAttacking a sitting Hokage? Come on… Deescalation isn’t possible in that scenario either.
he wasnt even capable of killing off a single uchiha member out of fear of itachi leaking critical information to the other villages, something Itachi would still have access to regardless of him slicing up children or notExcept Danzou was deadass serious & more then capable of making it happen
No its not ,its garbage rhetoric thats used to justify genocide, people are not homogenized beings tied to pre determinism, they individuals with their own choices, and snuffing that autonomy behind the the guise of "realism" is exactly what IRL genocide sympathizers do, so no he wasnt correct, and he wasn’t wrong in what he told Itachi. The kids old enough to understand that LEAF NINJA are killing their family leads to animosity against them among their ranks (We’ve seen it happening in the middle east for decades, as well as in Africa, so it is definitely realistic and more then likely to happen). Children not old enough understand will grow to understand. It’s not realistic to think you can hide the fact it was an inside operation that killed your clan.
you dont have to hide the history at all, because there is a very stark difference in eliminating those inciting violence for control that you cant detain normally and not killing everyone else, which would include uchiha that you could detain or are not hostile.There would be no Shinobi World Wars in the history books over the slaughtering of a prominent Village Clan, which would definitely trigger a SWW. No records of Rogue Ninja Arrested or killed in the numbers necessary to take down the clan (Or Strength). You’d have to invent an adversary, rewrite Uchiha History to a degree and suppress the truth among all of top Leaf Village Ranks & Clans to the best of your ability, hoping nothing leaks, no gossip, etc etc. Just to justify not killing the infants and toddlers, which ITSELF is equally egregious.
you dont have to hide itYou wouldn’t be able to hide the Village
the solution is not to murder every man,woman and child, you realize not every single member of the uchiha is Itachi or Madara, is possible to descalte the situtation even in conflict by incapacitation not just murder?having committed genocide of all Men, Women and Children of a Certain Age
there being examples doesnt stop it from being a falalcious generalization thats supported by fear mongering, you can apply this to any single living human, anyone has the potential to do good or bad but its not your place to take that persons atonomy away based on guess work, thats why its illogical and bad.in one of the strongest clans for decades without someone to pin it on. So yes, they “would” be considered a future threat / liability for the Village if allowed to grow older and this is supported by IRL examples as well. We can denounce it and acknowledge the wickedness of it, but that doesn’t mean the threat to the Village isn’t there or tangible in that scenario.
all those could have been achieved by what i said alreadyAnything other than a roadmap to that end wasn’t acceptable to the Uchiha and Danzou and the Elders weren’t having it (And Hiruzen wasn’t effective in Diplomacy). It left the Uchiha in limbo, growing bitter and bitter.
no? thats headcanon lolIn reference to what we know of the verse, the only way to cool things down was either create a new organizational structure in the Leaf Government (May nor May Not be Subject to Daimyo Approval), add Prominent Uchiha as advisors to the Hokage (But this likely would cause a stir with the other Clans w/o representation) or Place Fugaku as the Next Hokage Nomination (Which Danzou & The Elders would likely kneecap this possibility). Anything short of these things and the Uchiha are not budging.
they would only have to go inside Itachi's mind which he would happily agree to if it meant descalating the situtationNot True. Itachi had knowledge but no tangible evidence. The Uchiha would also reject the notion of having the Yamanakas dive into his mind and memories for obvious reasons
no?. It would be just like how Boruto is right now.
this doesnt work in a context of a ficitonal story where everything is written with a purpose for the reader to take away. ontop of that, even if it was a potential solution verus one that would 100% work, the fact that those options existed and no thought was given to them or even attempted is what makes it bad.Iirc, it came off as more of a “maybe” then fact.
this doesnt work either, we are talking about the context within the story but if you want to appeal to realisim then that makes it significantly worse because the structure of the conflict is based things that are not realistic at all, the uchiha massacre would never have happened because the uchiha would never attempt a coup if we were to apply rational logistics here.And if we’re applying any level of realism to this, that would not suffice at all.
Theres no reason to assume that, Fugaku backing off may have bought them enough time to come to actual agreement .At best it could get Fugaku to back off it, but all that would do is eventually lead to an Uchiha Civil War. Most likely with factions seeking to depose Fugaku.
What do yall thinkJust noticed that Kurama and Bijuus are lowballed. 50% of Kurama’s powers = 5 bijuus meaning each each tailed beast is actually magnitude stronger then the last. Each bijuu would be like at least 4x-5x stronger from one another. If 100% Kurama was to fight in the war, I bet it would take even 8tails (hypothetically) to even take on Kurama
EDIT: would we be able to find something for Kurama and the others if we use the Kakashi statement when he had Kurama’s chakra?
I agree with the morals and sentiment you present (Obviously, lol), but I do highly disagree with your assessment of the certain things, as well as the situation they were in. They were well beyond doing things you presented, imo, as possibly off-ramps to deescalation. Fact is, Danzou was fear-mongering and that doesn’t change. The Elders were “eldering” as they do, and Hiruzen wasn’t effective in diplomacy. And the Uchiha were already prepared and riled up. All of this is fact and I don’t think someone in Itachi’s position had better alternatives.so is killing the uchiha, so is leaving the village, becoming a rogue shinobi ect ect, those are things hokages have allowed, the immediate threats are danzo,the elders and the Fugaku and co.
the root isnt strong enough to overthrow the entire uchiha clan+the hidden leaf, which is why they had to work in secret with underhanded tactics, Danzo only became hokage after Tsunade fell into a coma

Got me in a chokehold!!
I think the only Boruto Kishi will ever draw is the chapter 700 version:
Tbf, obito was pulling the strings from behind the scenes and was controlling one of the louder uchiha dissidentsTheres no reason to assume that, Fugaku backing off may have bought them enough time to come to actual agreement
Read hundreds of manga, novels and TV showsYou should read more
You are entitled to your opinion. Even if it's ass. (Or you managed to consistently indulge in mid shows, so a good show seems like the best)Read hundreds of manga, novels and TV shows
still think its the best, what then?
Correct, that title belongs to Boruto: Naruto Next Generations.Naruto is very good. I'd say it's probably even better than most people give it credit for. But the best ever? Nah, not even close.
crazy how people cant fathom the idea of people appreciating a series above others and have to force the idea that it is mediocre trashYou are entitled to your opinion. Even if it's ass. (Or you managed to consistently indulge in mid shows, so a good show seems like the best)
That is not the semantical part. It's quite simply true that it'd be bad for Minato to have reached Obito first. It's simply true that had he done that, Obito would've used Kamui, and then FTG level 2 wouldn't have worked.Except there is nothing supporting Minato attacking slower being more favorable to him outside of a semantical argument that doesn’t disprove the initial premise of my argument… Best case scenario for your argument is, as you say below, it’s an equal interpretation (Except it’s not because there are actual feats saying otherwise).
Or he held back his speed in order to get Minato away by forcing him to teleport. This isn't a provable subject either way, just like Minato and Obito's interaction.I disagree. Again, that view is absent supporting evidence to say otherwise. Ot can actually be argued Obito already knew Minato would be able to do that so prepped in advance for that, which discounts the idea he held back his speed. This would be supported by his response in addition to the act of prepping the bombs anyways.
These instances together support Obito being relative, not faster, even by the marginal amount you're claiming.Brother… These instances together are what SUPPORTS my stance. Why would you think I would be arguing a single instance? My argument builds on the entire interaction from beginning to end. You just contradicted yourself by acknowledging this… Ntm If you look back at my arguments, I have said or implied several times I am taking into account everything that happened.
Again, the semantics lies in whether Minato did hold back or not, it's not semantics whether it was ideal for Minato to attack slower. The former requires interpretation, the latter is simply obvious from thinking about what would've happened otherwise.The argument you presented isn’t supported by the manga outside of a Semantical debate that doesn’t disprove what I said. So I can actually say the same to you…
It doesn't require him to hold back his speed if he's already slower, but it requires Obito to remain solid and not switch to phasing pre-emptively.Yes.
The goal was obviously to land a strike on him (Which he was unable to do prior to this). The means of Minato achieving this was FTG Level 2, initiating a Mutual Strike.
The problem here is you are taking the fact Minato intended to strike in that moment as him holding back to set up that instance, which is not supported. FTG level 2 doesn’t require Minato to hold back his speed. It requires his reaction speed in relation to Obito’s combat speed.
This is going in circlesI’ve disagreed and the context of the fight leans itself to my argument.
Likewise.
So you're saying that statements aren't valid without feats? Guess Momoshiki's a Kaguya victim after all.Semantics w/o support isn’t ever a valid counterargument to ones building upon actual evidence and context.
Let's look at the other speed interactions they had for a moment.Obito showcased he is fast enough to react and catch Minato’s Hand when striking, even before Minato know’s his ability. Obito is shown reacting and cornering Minato, forcing him to use FTG, even after Minato witnessed his ability before (Which you yourself acknowledge supports an argument of equivalence to some degree). Minato doesn’t think of the mutual strike tactic until AFTER the first 2 exchanges, but now we’re supposed to “magically” believe that Obito showcasing equivalence / slightly superior movement & combat speed outside of Shunshin is due to Minato holding back???
Give me a good argument that Obito is faster than Minato and you would have a valid point. You don't need evidence to counter evidence without validity, you just need to show why the argument doesn't go through.Yeah, no… That doesn’t work in context to everything that came before. Show me evidence leaning towards the contrary to support your semantics based argument and you would have a valid point.
My goal rn is to explain why your argument doesn't hold up. After we've concluded the discussion around the validity of this argument, I can bring them up (though they're certainly not enough if this discussion doesn't convince you in the end).It would be helpful if it supports your stance.
I get combat, but where do you get movement from?My claim is, and has always been Obito is equal to, if not the tiniest bit faster in movement/combat (Sans Shunshin) and it’s based on and supported by feats. Currently, your interpretation has no support.
No, there are literally more possibilities in favor of Minato~/>Obito than Obito~>Minato numerically.Disagree and I lean on my above responses to this argument.
This is not how equal interpretation works. You're making a claim about Obito's speed, so the burden of proof is on you. If I simply demonstrate that the chances of your claim being true are 50%, then the argument doesn't go through from your side. I don't need evidence (even though I have provided plenty), I need simply to cast reasonable doubt on your claim.You are correct, but the actual argument is centered around what we see and what we know. And both of those things supports my interpretation. If you have evidence to support your interpretation, post it. You haven’t actually disproven the things I’ve said. Your argument simply shifts it towards an equal interpretation, but without evidence supporting, it cannot actually be equal.
Are you referring to them reaching for each other and how the anime makes Minato move his arm faster than Obito?Brother, we see the scans… Pages 13-15
I never said to a significant degree, but regardless of what degree, nothing other than this incredibly interpretable interaction supports him being any distance faster.I think you need to reread my arguments. You are making it sound as If I said Obito is just blatantly faster to a significant degree. Like bruh… It is clear, that they are mainly relative (Not Vaguely) with Obito being faster on an order of MILLIMETERS TO CENTIMETERS!!
You haven't properly addressed the fact that Minato would've attacked the same way no matter how fast he was. You pretty much just said that it's an on screen feat so it should be used, which misses the point. You also ignored the short story that demonstrated why Minato outspeeding Obito would be bad. It's a more tangential point, but you also ignored Minato's combat speed>>Obito's movement speed.Like dude, it’s equivalent to winning the 100M Dash in the Olympics but the judges need to see the Cam Footage to determine who wins because it’s a photo-finish.
Name one area of your argument that I have not addressed in some form or fashion? I’ll wait, because I’m confident I have.
I haven't seen enough animanga to concretely claim it's the best ever, but not even close is wild. It's a 9/10 at bare minimum, probably a 9.5 (10 is reaching but P1 might be that level with the anime)Naruto is very good. I'd say it's probably even better than most people give it credit for. But the best ever? Nah, not even close.
Believe me, it's not even close.I haven't seen enough animanga to concretely claim it's the best ever, but not even close is wild. It's a 9/10 at bare minimum, probably a 9.5 (10 is reaching but P1 might be that level with the anime)
minato reactions> minato shunshin> minato~ obito is what i think they are arguingCan't y'all just agree that Minato ~ Obito and call it a day? This is why I'm dreading the speed revisions, good lawd
Aren't they arguing about combat speed? To me it sounded like both agree that Minato's reactions and shunshin are superior. But I could've misread ig.minato reactions> minato shunshin> minato~ obito is what i think they are arguing
If they are arguing combat speed then they both seem very relative to meY'all seriously need to read more manga.
Aren't they arguing about combat speed? To me it sounded like both agree that Minato's reactions and shunshin are superior. But I could've misread ig.
I won't be having such a huge argument over such a small difference in the speed revisionsCan't y'all just agree that Minato ~ Obito and call it a day? This is why I'm dreading the speed revisions, good lawd
I have seen some anime considered among the best ever like Death Note and Yu Yu Hakusho and still have Naruto as the best I've seenBelieve me, it's not even close.
That is probably wanking sure (one of the best I've seen tho)Also, he was claiming that it was the best piece of fiction ever, not just animanga.
Reaction speed and Shunshin aren't really the main topics. I think you could basically sum it up as I think Minato~>Obito and Neo thinks Obito~>Minato, which sounds kind of funny to have essay wars about when I say it like thatminato reactions> minato shunshin> minato~ obito is what i think they are arguing
