Eight-tailed Beast Species
I am not surprised if the eight-tailed beast's species type is Ushi-oni (Ox Ogre)also known as Gyuuki as almost all eight beasts are from Japanese folklore and it is the only bull demon that has a spider- or crab-like body supposely. - Daitiansg

Shouldn't the article be moved to "Eight Tailed Demon Ox" now? Omnibender 17:11, 22 August 2008 (UTC)


 * No cause we can't be sure thats its name, or even if it is an ox. At the moment, it is as it appears to be a ox cephelopd hybrid. It COULD be a Ushi-oni, it could be a very effed up looking ox. It could be a effed up looking octopus. At this point we aren't sure.--TheUltimate3 20:58, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

I'm not sure how reliable translations are, but if someone who can read Japanese can confirm it, it would be great, otherwise we'll have to wait until the plot reaches the US, and that is going to take a while. Omnibender - Talk 00:31, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

Even Wikipedia admit that the eight-tailed beast is an ushi-oni.KazeKitsune 01:03, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

can't we move the page to eight-tailed ox demon or demon ox, because at this point it is pretty obvious

Is it me or does the picture from the Artbook show that the Eight-Tails has no hind-legs? Only it's tails and forearms. --Juubi no Ryuu (talk) 01:26, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

that is true. im not sure how it moves, but it has no legs because it is part octopus 64.30.71.56 (talk) 01:48, 5 July 2009 (UTC)


 * He most lickly moves like Doc Oct from Spiderman, with his tentacels --Hamachi1993 (talk) 03:36, 11 July 2009 (UTC)Hamachi1993

Eight-Tailed Giant Octopus-Ox Name Change
According to the latest chapter of the Manga, Killer Bee and his Tailed Beast are reffered to an OCTOPUS 3 times, and has shown the ability to produce INK. We have, however NEVER seen him or his Tailed Beast refereed to as a ox, should we not change the name of the tailed beast to the "Eight-tailed Giant Octopus" to reflect this?


 * It is having the upper body of an ox, so no. Jacce | Talk 04:30, November 13, 2009 (UTC)


 * Suigetsu describes it as an ox. ~SnapperTo 05:54, November 13, 2009 (UTC)
 * Could we not call it an ox-topus


 * We could also call it 8 tailed ushioni or 8 tailed ox ogre, but i like the ox-topus ot just plain ox-octopus Flameboy4z (talk) 22:29, November 14, 2009 (UTC)


 * Except it was called a giant ox. So..yeah.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 23:50, November 14, 2009 (UTC)


 * Ox-topus gets a 17/10 on the awesome scale. ~SnapperTo 01:37, November 15, 2009 (UTC)


 * It was called a octopus MORE than a ox, and half it's body is a octopus. It's name should be like the Five-Tailed Dolphin-Horse, because it is clearly a fusion of two animals, octopus in ox. Dragon Hacker (talk) 17:41, November 15, 2009 (UTC)


 * Except this was called the Eight-Tailed Giant Ox.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 17:42, November 15, 2009 (UTC)
 * Perhaps we should simply call it the Eight-Tails. Ox, octopus, they are both descriptions of the Eight-Tails. The only official name we have is Eight-Tails. --ShounenSuki (talk 21:34, November 15, 2009 (UTC)
 * Because it's unnecessary because we already got a name. Remember the long discussion we all had about this in the Tailed beast talk page?--TheUltimate3 (talk) 22:37, November 15, 2009 (UTC)

plz change the name u r confussing many people(Willh65 (talk) 22:19, July 22, 2010 (UTC))

Ninja Storm 2 confirmed
I added his game debut.

Here's the proof. http://www.imagebam.com/image/a27dab91923723 Killer Bee too!!Sparxs77 (talk) 22:41, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

The Eight-Tailed Giant Ox uses Lightning Release
In chapter 414, when it charges its Eight-Tailed Ox Menacing Ball, lightning surrounds it and then it fires. Why this was omitted from the Anime is anyone's guess.
 * Just because there's a chakra swirl around it, it doesn't mean it's lightning chakra. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 19:55, September 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * In Ultimate Ninja Storm 2, Killer Bee uses a move called Light Hack while in the full Hachibi form. Should this be added to the list of jutsu? Diamonddeath (talk) 21:32, June 9, 2011 (UTC)

Voice actor
Do we have any idea or credits saying who is the Eight-Tails' voice actor, both in English and Japanese? Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 00:31, December 6, 2010 (UTC)

If you are talking about Killer bee himself, his english voice actor is Reno Wilson, as for the eight tails itself I dunno if they've put that scene in the anime yet (Where killer bee and the hachibi talk to each other)

Part of eight-Tails sealed away?
I just read naruto manga 537 and kabuto said that they only have a drop of the eight tails chakra, from its tail. This doesn't make sense, sincce didn't killer bee only get away with one tentacle and the rest of the hachibi get sealed? also, they said part of it is sealed away, so does that mean it cannot regenerate? and if one of its tentacles is part of its chakra, does that mean that its cut off horn is chakra too? Dang it naruto is so full of plotholes.
 * What's the plot hole here? The tentacle had traces of the Eight-Tails' chakra, which Akatsuki sealed into the statue. Killer B hid inside a tentacle, with the rest of the Eight-Tails going back inside him. There's no way of saying the lost tentacle can be regenerated, but there's no reason to assume it can't. Chakra can be replenished and the Eight-Tails is, after all, just chakra. It's cut-off horn also had chakra, no doubt about it. Still no plot holes here. —ShounenSuki (talk 21:15, May 2, 2011 (UTC)

Eight-tails doesn't have all its chakra?
In naruto 537, Kabuto and Raikage state how Akatsuki has part of the eight tail's chakra sealed, aka one of its tentacles. But what i saw what that killer bee was in one tentacle when he escaped sasuke and akatsuki got the rest. Does its cut off horn also count as chakra? Also, the zetsu clones were made with the captured tailed beast's chakra. Does this mean the captured one's don't have all THEIR chakra anymore?


 * sigh* Chakra replenishes just like blood does. Do you think after every battle they get the exact same chakra back? Also, This was pretty much explained in the article above this one. Sign your posts. SusanooUnleashed (talk) 02:18, May 5, 2011 (UTC)

Number of Tails
Does the Eight Tailed ox only have seven tails now, since the 8yh one got sealed?
 * If my memory serves, it could regenerate. Jacce | Talk | Contributions 17:11, May 26, 2011 (UTC)
