Naruto Shippuuden

For those who hasn’t been following Naruto episodes or Manga regularly (like me), here is some of recaps of what has been happening in the Naruto World. Just to let you on the same page.

Anime

• Team Kakashi and Team Gai headed on pursuing the location of the Akatsuki.
  Team Gai: Lee, Tenten, Neji and Gai.
  Team Kakashi: Naruto, Chiyo-sama, Sakura and Kakashi.
  The teams faced some sort of illusions which are apparently being controlled by Pein. The Akatsuki leader. The teams managed to escape their illusions.
• Team Kakashi found the Akatsuki hideout. They were too late though, because the Akatsuki has aleady extracted Gaara’s shukaku when they came. And all the members of the Akatsuki has gone except Sasori and Diedara.
• Sakura showed amazing force and fighting skills when she and Chiyo-sama fought with Sasori. She was Chiyo’s human puppet. During the fight, Sasori’s true identity/physical appearance was revealed. He’s now a puppet of himself.
  Sakura and Chiyo survived the fight and left Sasori defeated.
• Naruto and Kakashi were after Diedara. He carries Gaara’s remains and Naruto really wants to have Gaara back, whether or not he can survive. Well, he’ll be revived back to life.
• On the other side, Team Gai fell on to another illusion where they were fighting against themselves. They managed to escape.

Manga

Let’s start from where Sasuke defeated Orochimaru.

• Sasuke managed to catch Orochimaru with his mangekyu sharingan and defeated him so easily. Sasuke has Orochimarus power, somehow.
• Kabuto lent his body to Orochimaru, hardly staying on his own control. I doubt he can overcome Orochimaru in the end. After all, Orochimaru is still alive.
• Sasuke searched for Mizugetsu, Juugu and Karin and formed a group from them. They called their team as “Hebi” or snake.
  Team Hebi & Team Kakashi which is composed of more ninjas including you all time favorite Hinata are after the Akatsuki. There’s a hunting circle going on by the way. Naruto is in search of Sasuke. Sasuke is in search for Itachi. And Itachi is in search of Naruto. Must be a great fight if those three encounter each others at the same time, eh?
• Pein was revealed as the Akatsuki Leader and God according to Rain Ninjas.
• Sasuke and Itachi met each other and likely to start a fight.
• Naruto is the son of The Fourth Hokage and Kushina Uzumaki.
• The unnamed Akatsuki member is now named. She’s Konan. More likely the only girl in Akatsuki.

So far, this is all I got. Later.

Hurray, readers!

After voting, please leave a simple comment on whether the update helps or not at all. Thanks.

According to several information that Jiraiya extracts from the rain ninjas, it seems that no one has seen Pein and nobody knows a lot about him. No one really knows what he looks like but the people believe that he exists and watches over them all the time. Well, some people from the village might not agree with this. It also seems that Pein has a personal speaker when he wants something to tell the village.

The ninja said that Pein was being hunted by the former remnants of the village of Amagakure. They took every little chances they got to kill Pein-sama. But of course they failed. Pein sama destroyed the village so easily by himself. The reason why Pein is called a legend. Pein also defeated Hanzou, a former leader of Amagakure. Very powerful. Salamander Hanzou is the one who named the three (Tsunade, Jiraiya, Orochimaru), as “The Three Legendary Sannins of Konoha”. As they were strong enough to survive the attack.

I was talking with a friend last week, he’s a Naruto fan as well. He has a theory that I think can very possibly happen along the way. Well, somewhere along the way, we already saw twists that we thought would never happen before.

I did not think twice before I setup this blog. My initial plan is to replicate the old blog, at first I thought it was good but I think it can be better. Here are some ideas I have in mind and if you have better suggestions, please let me know. I will truly appreciate.

• Remove old posts that already exist on the old blog. It seems worthless reading a post that people have read before. It is also a waste of bandwidth and storage on my part. Besides, there are posts that are irrelevant. As part of a new start, I thought it’s better to start from a real start.
• Use a different design. I came to a decision of using different design to my 2 Naruto Blogs. It will avoid confusing the readers whether or not they’ve been to a post. It will also increase the sites credibility by means of uniqueness. For readers who do not know that I also own the other Naruto Blog, they might think that I am copying other’s works. That’s a bad impression. I am also planning of having a customized header for this blog and in case I don’t come up with a good one, I might hire someone to create it for me. This blog still needs a lot of modifications. Please watch out, I might post about it later soon.
• Throw in some contests. Once in a while, I’m gonna throw contests for the readers. Prizes will not be so elegant; maybe Starbucks gift checks, small tokens, and some trinkets. My initial plan may only apply to local readers (readers from Manila only) until I find a better way of sending prizes internationally. If budget will allow, I will shoulder the shipping fees.

So far, these are the things I have in mind. Just so few.

We never thought that we are pulling out the redirect script from the old Naruto Blog this quick. We planned to keep it for a week but it seems like we don’t need that long. The introduction has ended. The redirect script has been a great help and your visits are truly appreciated.

We are now removing the redirect script from the old blog. We will now continue to update posts to make up for the past days. We also noticed that the site ranking of the old Naruto Blog has decreased significantly. Now it’s time to restore it.

Thank you very much for your continuous support to Naruto Blogs.

This could be the most awaited name to be revealed so far in the series after Pein is revealed. Pein’s partner is named, Konan. S/he looks like a girl but I don’t have any proof of his/her gender yet. I’m quite sure she’s a girl though. With that rose pinned on her hair, it’s hard to imagine he’s gay. jk.
