Ultimate Ninja Impact Techniques
Using the links I left at the game's talk page, I looked up on the technique names from it so articles could be made about them. I've made an attempt on translating them, and out of the ones which debuted in the game, I think I managed a good portion of them. Could you proof-read them and take a look on the ones I didn't get? Most of those are from A and B, so dictionaries weren't very helpful, though some of the sites I linked have description of the attacks. For the ones I've seen and remember what they do exactly, I'll put a brief description in case it can provide help seeing a pun or something that might be an influence in the name.
 * Four-Tails Naruto
 * This is a tailed beast chakra arm technique, specifically the move Naruto did when putting them through the ground trying to catch Orochimaru.
 * Kinda like a watered down, rapid-fire Tailed Beast Ball.
 * Tailed Beast Sonic Roar. Might actually be worth renaming, since I think this is the first time a game named this.
 * No idea on what this is, never managed finding a gameplay video showing it. Sites where I got this say this is can only be performed when in mid-air.
 * Sage Mode Naruto
 * Reminds me of Heavenly Foot of Pain.
 * Six-Tails Naruto
 * just another name variation of one of the old game names for the Tailed Beast Ball, will probably list it in its trivia section.
 * Sakura
 * Kick to the ground with the heel, but no jumping before it.
 * Strong punch.
 * Kakashi
 * An upwards punch, kinda like the one Naruto defeated Neji with in the Chūnin Exams, but without coming from underground.
 * Lee
 * Fancy flaming kick with lots of spinning.
 * No idea what it looks like. Site with the name says: 砂塵をまきあげて攻撃.
 * Hinata
 * Shikamaru
 * The trick Shikamaru did with kunai and his jacket against Temari in Part I, but with explosive tags attached.
 * There might be a pun here. I've seen both forms in pages, though I'd have to check in gameplay videos to make sure which is the last kanji, if the quality is good enough.
 * Fancier 起爆クナイ.
 * AoE technique, shadow version of Certain-Kill Ice Spears, but with all the spikes pointing towards the same point, making a "tent" over Shikamaru.
 * Guy
 * Jiraiya
 * Summoning: Food Cart Destroyer Technique-like with Gama.
 * Danzō
 * The big tree he made to change the direction of Sasuke's Susanoo's arrow.
 * Puts Baku behind opponent, uses Wind Release: Vacuum Great Sphere.
 * Minato
 * Body Flickers through opponents very fast hitting them.
 * Gaara
 * The kanji that changes have very similar meanings, I've seen both forms in Japanese sites.
 * The Sphere of Sand page that got redirected to Shield of Sand a while ago, but with a dash of Human Bullet Tank in it.
 * A
 * Appears to be an uppercut. Description in site is "電撃をまとったアッパー".
 * B
 * B's "pencil is mightier" he used against Kisame.
 * 裟真亜剃斗: Description in site is "サマーソルトで打上".
 * 武零駆断擂/武零駆断ス: Description in site is "両手両脚に刀で高速回転".
 * Description is "7本の刀で突進".
 * Description in site is "7本の刀を地面にむかってなげる".
 * Description from site (7本の刀でふれると発動) matches description from that article and game play videos.
 * Version 2 Form B
 * 崙虜火音: seems to be a lesser tailed beast sonic roar.
 * Itachi
 * 真経津: From what I could tell, this might be something with the Yata Mirror.
 * Konan
 * Throws three of those paper cranes that are said to grant wishes if you fold a thousand.
 * No idea, never saw gameplay of it.
 * Deva Path
 * Takes boulder from the ground.
 * Tobi
 * Never saw footage of it either.
 * Same as above.
 * Sasori
 * Deidara
 * Throws six exploding clay animals around self that explode on hitting either enemy or ground.
 * Same as above, but continuously.
 * Hidan
 * Kakuzu
 * Wind vortex tries sucking you in while Kakuzu tries hitting you with a Fire Release from a perimeter.
 * Sasuke
 * Big swipe of the blade.
 * Kisame
 * Samehada-fused Kisame
 * Makes a blob of water around himself and dashes at others with it. Bounces.
 * Makes a giant whirlpool around himself. Seen both forms in sites, would need to check on gameplay video to see which kanji is used.

Filler translations
I went through the articles on the recent filler episodes, looking for things that need translation. Here's what I found:
 * In episode 227, there's the Ultimate Summoning Animal. From the sound, my guess is 究極の口寄せ獣 (Kyūkyoku no Kuchiyosejū). There's also the location where the episode is set, which from the sound, looks like 口寄せの島 (Kuchiyose no Shima). All these terms can be found between 7:30 and 8:40.
 * In episode 231, there's Mokuzu Island and Devil's Water Trap. The first is supposed to be around 4:00, I can see the name of the island in the subtitle, but I can't hear it. The Mokuzu part is probably the same as it appears in a ramen shop sign around that time as well. I see it in the subtitles around 5:30. All of it might be around 18:25. There's also the point of whether it's Mokuzu or Mozuku. I think I might have seen it both ways in the subtitles.
 * In episode 239, there's Earth Release: Earth Hold. Is it 土遁・大地岩障 or 土遁・大地断層 at 5:50? There's also Black Spider Lily and Mind Disturbance Dance Performance Technique at 15:00, but Seelentau already got those, so check it just if you want to make sure we got it right. The only thing I'm not sure in those if it's Kuro or Kuroi in Shikaku's technique, and there might be genbu instead of enbu in Inoichi's.
 * In episode 240, Kakashi's ninken use five techniques: Circular Formation, Crane Wing Formation, Hound Barricade Formation, Ninken Ninja Art: Dance of the Dust Cloud and Ninken Ninja Art: Hound Clone. From the sound of it, I put down kanji for Crane Wing Formation, and the two Ninken Ninja Art. I think there might be an interesting trivia point about Crane Wing Formation, because in looking for kanji for it, I found references to a battle that involved a manoeuvre with that name. Sequences are from 8:00 to 10:40 and 15:30 to 19:00. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 18:20, December 17, 2011 (UTC)

Hi Shounen, I've a question, Is Baji's kanji name which I've posted it in his page true? http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Baji According to the ending credits, if it's false you can fix it and add it into his infobox... Thanks :) (Shakhmoot (talk) 11:20, December 24, 2011 (UTC))

Weld
I've recently decided on another triple combination (earth/lightning/yin), this time. However, I see that the name of the nature can be written in three different ways:. Like with Lava Release, I believe that the radical in the first kanji doesn't change things very much, but I'm still interested in any possible differences between them. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 20:27, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

Hiraishin Jutsu Formula
For the Flying Thunder God Technique (and Flying Thunder God Kunai, of course), the "jutsu formula",, also on the kunai, seems to be a set of kanji, beginning with "nin" for patience and ninja. It seems we never got to looking at what the whole thing says. What does it exactly say? Until now I always thought it was meant to be gibberish that looks like sanscrit or something >< --GoDai (talk) 03:33, December 19, 2011 (UTC)

I think the second kanji is kaku 覚, third is fu 符, and the last is zetsu 絶. Nikaku Fuzetsu (忍覚符絶)? Yatanogarasu (Talk) 19:47, February 4, 2012 (UTC)


 * The first kanji is definitely 忍 and the third does look a lot like 符, but the second doesn't look like 覚 and the last almost certainly isn't 絶. I don't think the kanji are meant to say anything, really, especially in the manga. Kishimoto-sensei almost never uses actual text for seals and such. —ShounenSuki (talk 20:40, February 4, 2012 (UTC)

I was Wondering...
I remember a loooonnng time ago you said (if I'm not mistaken) that it was mentioned the Minato had the potential to surpass Hiruzen. I was wondering if you know where that was stated, assuming you remember, as that seems like something that should be mentioned in his abilities section, since it isn't as of now.

Figurative names
Hi, it's me. I was looking around for ideas for the kekkei tōta theory Earth+Lightning+Yang, and right now I'm thinking it would be interesting if the combination was something like self-replicating molecular nanotechnology; Electrical energies being used to allow inanimate particles (Earth) to imitate (Life), or in other words give them the ability to move on their own. I was mainly thinking of the "grey goo" stereotype, molecular nanotechnology that consumes all matter to self-replicate, aka ecophagy. I'm most interested in a figurative name for such an element, which at the same time, could be quite difficult, I imagine. What would be the very closest figurative name you'd recommend? --GoDai (talk) 04:14, December 23, 2011 (UTC)

Kagome
Hey Suki, is this translation correct?

かごめかごめ 籠の中の鳥は いついつ出やる？　夜明けの晩に 鶴と亀が滑った 後ろの正面だあれ？

Kagome Kagome Kago no naka no Tori wa Itsu Itsu deyaru? Yoake no ban ni Tsuru to Kame ga subetta. Ushiro no shoumen dare?

Kagome, Kagome, the bird in the cage, when will you come out? In the evening of the dawn, the crane and turtle slipped. Who stands right behind you now?

— White Flash 05:56, December 25, 2011 (UTC)
 * I think it's correct, after constantly watching this video, the little kids are whispering it in Japanese. — White Flash 03:26, December 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Another thing, this image, do you know what those five kanji means?-- White Flash  (Talk)  04:09, December 30, 2011 (UTC)

Chapter 568 Stuff

 * Guy says about the Rokubi's gas,
 * Raiden, when written as 雷電, means 'thunder and lightning' and as such — with the 'sama' suffix — is an alternate name for the Japanese god of thunder, Raijin. When written as 雷電, it is also the name of a famous video game series.
 * The Yonbi introduces himself as,

 * A can be one of two things. It can be the name given to a newly ordained Buddhist monk or nun, or it can be the posthumous name given to deceased people according to the Buddhist faith.

Sorry to bother you with this yet again my friend. But I'm curious on what Kishimoto actually wrote in 568. Particularly what the Four-Tails said about his name and what appears to be his entire title.--TheUltimate3 ~Keeper of Lore~ 14:08, December 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * Also if I put Kurama's japanese name right. --Ilnarutoanime -NejiLoverr- 14:10, December 26, 2011 (UTC)

 * And the age-old request of looking for info pointing towards gender.--Cerez365™Hyūga Symbol.svg 15:22, December 26, 2011 (UTC)

I'm with TheUltimate3. I don't trust the translation we have. The translator has a rather bad record and what he did in this chapter in some cases doesn't sound like proper english. I would be much obliged if after you've read the raw you could post the bits and pieces which are misleading in the current version.91.57.201.197 (talk) 01:37, December 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * Could you also please translate what Guy says about the corrosive/rotting gas, "...腐らせるガスか!?" Blackstar1 (talk) 17:33, December 28, 2011 (UTC)

So... Can "monkey" in this sense be translated as "ape"? Also 'Connexion' with an x O.o?--Cerez365™ 22:58, December 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * That's an old way of spelling the word. Isn't that an out-dated way of spelling it, even in UK English? Isn't "connection" more commonly used even in UK English? Also, does the title of King means that Son Gokū is confirmed as a male character? Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 23:01, December 28, 2011 (UTC)


 * I've never seen that spelling before thought it was Spanish but it doesn't fit Kakashi's style. xD Where I'm from we use English UK and I've never seen it like that though. Also look for gender stuff for the other beasts please~.--Cerez365™Hyūga Symbol.svg 23:08, December 28, 2011 (UTC)


 * DON'T TOUCH MY PRETTY X! HISSSS!!
 * It's somewhat uncommon nowadays but certainly not outdated or archaic. I used it because I like the look of it and… that's about it. I like the x. It's a Nobody now.
 * And yes, 猿 can be translated as both 'monkey' and 'ape', but I feel that 'monkey' is more fitting here. Son has a tail, after all. Four even. And no, the use of 'king' doesn't imply gender. 王 is basically genderless, despite the existence of 女王. —ShounenSuki (talk 23:09, December 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * The only gender indications are the use of masculine first-person and second-person pronouns by the Bijū. Still, that could also mean they're genderless. —ShounenSuki (talk 23:11, December 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * My only concern with the x spelling is having to deal with people changing it to "connection" every time they see it. We already endure the regular changes to US spelling, but seeing that this jumps more to the eye than the standard UK spelling, it seems a bit like asking people to edit and change the spelling. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 23:36, December 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Firstly, Lmfao! But I have to agree with Omnibender, people'll probably think it's an error even more so than the UK spelling and we won't really have anything (forlackofabetterword) substantial to rebuff them with.--Cerez365™Hyūga Symbol.svg 23:44, December 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * pats x* Poor you, such a misunderstood and ignored letter…
 * Fine, fine, use the ugly spelling. I see enough x's in Katekyō Hitman Reborn and Kingdom Hearts, any way. At least Amano-sensei and Nomura-sensei still appreciate the beauty that is the x. —ShounenSuki (talk 23:59, December 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * By Talos keep it with the X. I want to see how many people keep it as connextion and think it's some awesome new word.--TheUltimate3 ~Keeper of Lore~ 00:12, December 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * Like I said, I don't mind the fact it's written like that, what I mind is having to deal with people changing it, and having to change it back ad nauseum. Maybe uncommented warnings like we had for irises/irides situation will work? Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 00:16, December 29, 2011 (UTC)

I don't want to doubt you, but my wadokujiten says that 伝 means 'life' or 'biography' when read as でん and not 'connexion'. Seelentau 愛議 01:50, December 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * I would say it takes on the meaning of 'passing down' more than 'life' itself. Still, the basic meaning remains the same. A or  is nothing more than a connexion or transmission between two people, or the past and the present. That's what this kanji signifies and 'connexion' seems to be the best translation in this case, at least to me. Besides, 'den' is simply the on'yomi, so it's only natural to use it in compound nouns. Perhaps 'Lightning Transmission' might be a better translation, though… —ShounenSuki (talk 02:27, December 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * ah, I see. And why's the 水 in your translation of 水簾洞 missing? Also, maybe I trust it a bit too much, but my wadokujiten says 簾 can be read as す or すだれ, but not れん... Seelentau 愛議 17:18, December 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * I accidentally typed 'bamboo' instead of 'water'. I fixed that now. Also, both す and すだれ are the kun'yomi for 簾; れん is the on'yomi. —ShounenSuki (talk 17:27, December 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * But isn't now the 'bamboo'-part of 簾 missing? Seelentau 愛議 17:48, December 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * The 'bamboo' part isn't important, nor is it inherent to the kanji. The kanji simply refers to a specific kind of curtain or screen that, coincidentally, is usually made of bamboo. It can also be made of other materials, though. The bamboo nature of the screens is made even more immaterial when you consider the Chinese origins of the name, as the kanji refers to any and all sorts of curtains and screens in Chinese. —ShounenSuki (talk 18:34, December 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * Are you going to follow with the "transmission" translation or will we keep the "connexion" one? Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 20:18, December 31, 2011 (UTC)

Transmission does fit better, I'd say. —ShounenSuki (talk 18:17, January 1, 2012 (UTC)

Uzumaki
Not too sure if I have to do this, but it may possibly be overlooked idk. I think we have enough "proof"? now that the symbol behind Kushina and Mito is the Uzumaki clan's emblem. It was also in Mito's bedroom back in chapter 500. (Not too sure how to put this part) I would however ask that you'd make it on a white background? I think it'd be easier to see or something.--Cerez365™ 14:26, December 26, 2011 (UTC)

Naw it's fine. I was just wondering is all. Far be it from me to stop your creativity from running free. I wanted to make witty comment about the word "connexion" but I have failed horribly. =\--Cerez365™ 17:17, December 29, 2011 (UTC)

Hey Shounen (Suki?).

There are shipping wars about the few known characters already, Marokka seems to be the new Zutara. I'm curious to see how everything has changed, including bending. Much like the speculation I make here, I always tried thinking inventive ways of using bending. All the art released so far looks very good. Have you seen the two leaked videos?

Chapter 316
Hi, I was wondering if I'm reading an accurate translation, and wanted some help with it. What did Kakashi say about Jōnin and chakra nature requirements? Also, this translation says "... creates a sixth element..." to describe how Wood Release is formed, and I'm not sure if the original said anything close to being along those lines.

Rikudo Moniker
Heller again~ We've been having a slight issue with Madara/Tobi and Nagato's moniker Second and Third Rikudō respectively. Though I finally found your translation in the Q3 archive of 2010, you never translated the 'Rikudō' there and we can't seem to find where you did anymore. With that, how would you translate the monikers? Could you respond here please↓ it'll be easier when we're referencing it elsewhere.--Cerez365™ 13:55, January 10, 2012 (UTC)


 * I would translate the actual monikers themselves as and . Translating them as 'Second/Third of the Six Paths' would imply that 'Six Paths' refers to a group of six people, rather than to the Sage of the Six Paths. As silly as it looks, using 'Second/Third Six Paths' would avoid confusion, and we all know there's been a lot of confusion about that… —ShounenSuki (talk 21:32, January 10, 2012 (UTC)

Chapter 569 Stuff

 * Title:
 * . I see no reason to assume there is a pun in here.
 * Iruka says the graduation exam is the normal Clone Technique on page 12.

When you translate Frog Smash, could you also please provide your thoughts as to why "Tataki" may have been used, as I'm not sure what Kishimoto's intentions were (another pun?). Blackstar1 (talk) 17:33, January 11, 2012 (UTC)

Also, if you get the chance, could you translate what Iruka says about the graduation exam on page 12? MangaStream translated it as him saying the exam was over the Shadow Clone technique which is just plain incorrect unless Kishi made a mistake. Skitts (talk) 18:15, January 11, 2012 (UTC)

Amegakure academy
While lurking at Naruto Forums, I saw there's this thread where people make requests to people who own the official English volumes of the series, and the third databook. In a scan of the beginning of Viz's translation of the third databook, in the part where it shows how to read the entries, such as rank and village of origin, there was this small text showing which were the possible ranks, and just below it, there was a note saying that Amegakure didn't have a ninja academy, and something about their genin I don't recall right now. Can you confirm/clarify that with your Japanese edition of it? This seems like a mildly interesting piece of trivia. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 03:06, January 13, 2012 (UTC)

Reason for Son indstead of Gokū
Hi, i was just wondering if there were a reason, besides him saying so, why Son Gokū is called Son instead of Gokū when addressed with one name instead of his full name. I take it that Son is probably not ment as a family name (even tough it is for the "real" Son Goku, who is called Goku, as im sure you know) since tailed beasts dont have a family per se, so what is it? To me it could look like a case similar to Rock Lee or Might Guy, but those we do call Lee and Guy respectly. Im not that familier with japanese, but is there a reason for him to be called Son? im not saying that we should change anything, cause i think it is right with Son, mainly cause he said so himself, i was simply wondering why. If this is the wrong place to ask this, im sorry, but you just seems to be the guy that knows stuff about japaneese language and culture. --Cosmikaze (talk) 02:12, January 16, 2012 (UTC)

Yeah that's the one. Looking for it in the manga, I think it's the 4th frame on pafe 5, chapter 492. But now that I see it, it doesn't seem like a nickname at all. In the anime, he was called the hero of heroes, I must have mixed it up with that instance.--Cerez365™ 20:05, January 19, 2012 (UTC)

Wood Release and Tailed Beast Control
When you get the chance, can you translate what Orochimaru says on the last panel of chapter 291, page 14?

Anyway, it's nice to hear from you, I noticed you're quite inactive the last few weeks, huh?

Is it due being still less and less about ninja and more like dragon ball ? ; ) --Elveonora (talk) 16:55, January 27, 2012 (UTC)


 * @Seelentau: I'm sorry to hear about the poor quality of your Japanese lessons. I'd suggest trying to learn as much as you can on your own, but I have a feeling you're already doing that ^^ I'll still do the regular translations for each new chapter, but I'm not sure if I'll do full-chapter translations any more.
 * @Elveonora: I liked Dragon Ball. It's not because of the shift in emphasis, it's just that Kishimoto-sensei simply isn't all that good in keeping a story as long as Naruto compelling and interesting. His fortes are characterisation and emotional scenes, but his weak points are story telling and character development. This allowed him to write the extremely strong —and relatively short— Land of the Waves arc, but makes him far, far weaker in the long run. He simply lost my interest. —ShounenSuki (talk 09:07, January 28, 2012 (UTC)

 * and another, Naruto regarding question: Could you please tell me what Son said in chapter 570 on page four about the chains and all? Seelentau 愛議 01:14, January 29, 2012 (UTC)

The only issue I see is that 4th Shinobi World War Arc is the longest one in the series so far and most likely pre-final arc. There's just too many stuff going on with little to no explanation only for more question to ask. Like since 3rd databook came out there happened A LOT.

Is it possible that Kishi is pushed to to finish the series as fast as possible or something ? But from the latest interview it seems like this year is gonna be more explanations/revelations than question.

I once lost interest in Naruto about 2 years ago but returned to it when it went back to it's line.

And you are right, Land of Waves arc was the best because it was still about "Ninja" and very emotional. Kishimoto is focusing too much on Sasuke and Naruto instead of giving screen time to other characters, and if doing so its just lame and rushed. Even though most people hate fillers cause half of them suck, some are great and respecting manga and allow for further character development.

When Kishi revealed Edo Madara I was like "WOW!" but since then all this Naruto 2nd coming of Rikodou or what is it and Tailed Beasts being just pets is kinda childish and cliche. --Elveonora (talk) 15:13, January 28, 2012 (UTC)

Hidden
What exactly does the first databook say about hidden techniques? Someone is asking for a source that shows that they can't simply be learned through observation. Does that entry say something about the Sharingan not being able to copy them as well, perhaps in the Sharingan's own entry? BTW, I'm writing it like the English word because Wikia's spam filter is being triggered by the word with one "d". Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 21:06, January 30, 2012 (UTC)

Chapter 570 Stuff

 * Title:

Chapter 571 Stuff

 * Title: }

Chapter 572 Stuff
All this is from the spoilers, by the way. Aaand confirmed~☆ Also, I might dislike the chibi bijū, but the larva Seven-Tails is a nice touch.
 * Title:
 * Tailed Beast names:
 * 1)  → Taken from the Bunbuku Chagama.
 * 2)  → 'Travel again'. Probably an adaptation of the name of the.
 * 3)  → 'Beach stroker'. An adaptation of the name of the.
 * 4)  → Taken from the Journey to the West.
 * 5)  → I think コク should actually be written with a certain kanji, but as it is now, it can mean a lot of things. 王 means 'king'. 'Kokuō' when written as 国王 specifically means the king of a country.  → 'Respectful King'. This name probably comes from the name of the tenth-century-ʙᴄ Chinese . He's famous for the legend surrounding his visit to the sacred, where he visits the goddess  so he can eat from her peaches of immortality. There is also an account of the King being shown a human-shaped automaton — a completely artificial, fully functional robot with internal organs and all. This might tie into Han's appearance and abilities. In Japanese, the name 穆王 is pronounced as bokuō, so the unusual kokuō pronunciation used for the Five-Tails' name was probably meant to bring the word  to mind.
 * 6)  → 'Rhinoceros dog', apparently a kind of Chinese yōkai.
 * 7)  → 'Principal Brightness' / 'Principal Vidya'.
 * 8)  → Alternate pronunciation of the name of the.
 * 9)  → 'Nine Lama'.
 * In answer to TheUltimate3's answer, none of the names sound necessarily feminine or masculine to me.

Thanks agains Shounensuki, and so early too! even though they might be subject to change. With regards to gender, I'm starting to think we'll never know their genders (or that they don't have any) they Nibi even looked masculine to me in the recent chapter even though I secretly called it a she :D--Cerez365™ 14:33, February 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Some dude on the German Narutopedia mentioned this Japanese saying: 猫にまたたび、女郎に小判. Do you know it? He said it could probably be the inspiration for Nibi's name. Seelentau 愛議 18:46, February 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * I cannot say I heard of that saying, but I did find out that is the Japanese name for Actinidia polygama, a plant with a similar affect on cats as catnip. This might be were that saying came from. There is also the word, which refers to travelling life of people like gamblers and performers. Both 又 and 股 are used to write the word 'nekomata'. —ShounenSuki (talk 21:32, February 1, 2012 (UTC)

Could you also translate what Chōmei refers to itself as when introducing itself to Naruto please?--Cerez365™ 13:11, February 4, 2012 (UTC)


 * Chōmei says,.
 * Also, to further fuel the Bijū gender debate and give some insight into their personalities:
 * The Ichibi speaks like a madman.
 * The Nibi speaks quite formal, using and, making it seem feminine.
 * The Sanbi uses the boyish and speaks in a shy manner, making it seem as if it lacks self-esteem.
 * The Yonbi uses and speaks like the big brute it is.
 * The Gobi uses, a rather old-fashioned and very polite pronoun to use. It doesn't speak much, but whatever it says doesn't come across as masculine–polite rather than feminine.
 * The Rokubi uses and speaks with a dialect, possibly Ōsakaben.
 * The Nanabi speaks in a happy-go-lucky, easygoing manner, similar to its jinchūriki, who uses to end her sentences, giving her a rather tomboyish feel. (Or, of course, indicating she once again switched genders.)
 * The Hachibi uses again and speaks like a somewhat rude, but otherwise quite normal guy.
 * The Kyūbi uses to refer to himself, which is generally used by older men (like Rōshi and Jiraiya).
 * —ShounenSuki (talk 13:55, February 4, 2012 (UTC)

Wow... thank you ^^ I was just coming to ask you if they spoke in any different ways after flipping through the raws and seeing the different ways in which they said "yes" to Kurama.--Cerez365™ 14:40, February 4, 2012 (UTC)
 * Oh, uhm could you also explain your statement about Kokuō? I got lost at the last bit.--Cerez365™Hyūga Symbol.svg 14:40, February 4, 2012 (UTC)


 * To keep it simple, I think Kokuō's name is based on an ancient Chinese king, who is best-known for his legendary journey to find some peaches that would grant him immortality. There is also a story about this king in which he is shown what is basically an android, which might be what Han was based on. in Japanese, the name of this king is pronounced Bokuō, though, so I think Kishimoto-sensei used the pronunciation Kokuō to bring the word 国王 to mind. It could, of course, also be a reference to the Fist of the North Star character. —ShounenSuki (talk 14:54, February 4, 2012 (UTC)

A while back, I tried to get Minato to be added as a user of the Shuriken Shadow Clone tech, but others disagreed with me.

Skitts (talk) 06:38, February 5, 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, that was the general consensus when I asked for him to be considered as a user. The main reason I thought that was because the panel before showed like 6 FTG kunai in his pack. Then when he threw some kunai, again, only 6 of the kunai appeared to be...well, for lack of a better term, solid, as all the others were drawn as if they just appeard. Although, that could have been meant to convey how fast they were moving...or Kishi didn't want to have to drawn all of those kunai in detail. xD Skitts (talk) 19:57, February 5, 2012 (UTC)

Samurai clans of the sengoku jidai were called with shi not ichizoku, ie: 徳川氏 not 徳川一族. Can you explain this to me? 一族 means family/tribe while 氏 means family name/surname/clan.
