Konan's Ring
Hey there! (^_^)/ I have one question.

I already brought it up in Akatsuki's talk page, but I also wanted your two cents about this.

See, the kanji of Konan's ring, 白, means "white" and can be read as shiro, shiroi, shira, haku, byaku and so on. In the Akatsuki page, in the section about rings, it says about Konan's ring that it's read as "bya".

Now, is this mentioned somewhere officially or did someone made a mistake?--JouXIII (talk) 20:12, October 5, 2015 (UTC)
 * According to this it is... So it's probably mistake?--JouXIII (talk) 20:43, October 5, 2015 (UTC)

Some questions
Hello Seelentau, I am GoDai and I used to come on here much more often a long while back. I've been out of it and I was wondering if you could answer some questions for me, as you always seemed to know what you were doing:
 * Did I see you having the same suspicion as I did? The 溶 vs. 熔 issue. (Of course, I'm neither the first nor the only one who had this problem.) Even the Japanese (and Korean) forums seemed stumped about this... especially seeing how even the anime creators messed up the Yōkai no Jutsu the first time! I think a long while back, a bunch of us including Omnibender and ShounenSuki ended up dismissing it, but I must admit that the suspicion has remained in the back of my head. I mean, especially after they corrected the appearance of Mei's Melting Apparition Technique. What if they really are different natures?
 * A related question: Does it ever say anywhere that the elemental combinations are unique? I'm usually for the side that says that they unique because I'd like for there to be exactly 10 dual combinations, but if Dissolution or Corrosion isn't Lava, then can it still be Earth+Fire? Earth+Water? or even Water+Fire? I have seen several sources state that it is Earth+Water, which makes sense to me given its muddy quality, but they're obviously speculating also. Is it simply too dangerous to accept the Corrosion, which causes a throwing-out of the uniqueness of combinations? As more time passes, it seems increasingly likely that Kishimoto doesn't work under a fixed system like our diagrams on the wikia imply.
 * Do you know how much Kishimoto was involved in the third Shippūden movie ? How likely is it that the Dark, Steel and Swift Release are his inventions? I've always wondered if the scenario went something like this:
 * Film writers: (by email) Hey Mr. Kishimoto what do you have in mind for combined elemental kekkei genkai?"
 * Kishimoto: Eh, Storm, Steel, Swift and Dark (冥) maybe?
 * (K may have possibly thought Storm: curving laser beams, Steel: metal, Swift: sonic wind (風+雷 because 疾風迅雷), Dark: ghostly blue fire)
 * FW: (incorrectly thinks Storm: electric clouds, Steel: metal and Swift: super-speed; confused by 冥) Gotcha. What do you mean by Dark though?.
 * K: Blue fire.
 * FW: Ah, okay. (jots down chakra absorption and element copying because Darkness is awesome, does keep blue fire)
 * ^ So much would make sense if that happened. Seeing how Storm was actually used (albeit differently) in the manga and how Kishimoto was seemingly involved with the novel about Gaara, it seems like these really may be his ideas, at least up to the Release names. If so, then we've already passed the 10 combinations limit, with exactly 11. What are your thoughts? --GoDai (talk) 07:31, October 18, 2015 (UTC)

 * Hey. I know you're "inactive" and all, but I figured it's worth a shot >_< Could you help me with a translation of the following characters: "機関員"? I'm pretty sure it's "stoker" ("fireman", or wiper, but I heard it's a stretch), though a manga translator translated it as "mechanic". If you can't help, I'll understand, just figured it'd be great if you could :)--Omojuze (talk) 12:15, October 30, 2015 (UTC)
 * But does it in any way work as "mechanic"?--Omojuze (talk) 12:31, October 30, 2015 (UTC)
 * It doesn't use "Karakuri". The reading is "kikanin, きかんいん".--Omojuze (talk) 12:36, October 30, 2015 (UTC)
 * If I may put my two cents here... When I was looking 機関員 from regular Wikipedia, I found this. It's Japanese page of Espionage. Not sure what 機関員 has do with espionage, but that's something, right?--JouXIII (talk) 12:47, October 30, 2015 (UTC)
 * Ok (Y) Thanks a lot for your help, hope I didn't interrupt anything important.--Omojuze (talk) 13:04, October 30, 2015 (UTC)

Boruto ages
From what I understand, Kishimoto revealed how many years passed between the end of the Fourth Shinobi World War and the Boruto movie in an interview during NYCC (15 years, if I'm not mistaken), meaning all characters with known ages by the end of the series that appeared in the Boruto movie have reliably calculable ages. It's no different from what we did to determine B's age when we had Motoi's flashbacks. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 16:09, October 31, 2015 (UTC)

MangaPanda Translation
Hello Seelentau, I came to talk to you about a particular page in Naruto chapter 696 on page 9 in which Kurama claims that Sasuke is on Hagoromo's level when he merges his CBS with the chakra of all of the Tailed Beasts. QuakingStar tells me that MangaPanda and MangaStreams translations are inaccurate, even though they happen to be some of the most popular and well-known manga sites. Do you by any chance know the proper translation of that chapter and know if these claims are true? As you're one of the top translators on the site here. --Legendary Super Saiya-Jin 4 (talk) 22:00, December 16, 2015 (UTC)

New scan info
So, there's a new scan. Not the greatest quality, but crisp enough to read the big stuff. Of the things we have no articles on, there's Team 7's new team ougi, and Edo Hiruzen's new ougi. Can you confirm what I got and if it's a proper translation? Team 7's ougi is. I have no clear idea on what the "gokui" part is supposed to mean, if it's an idiom, pun. Tangorin also gave me the translation "main point", and Google Translate also gave me "secret". Edo Hiruzen's ougi is. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 23:08, December 17, 2015 (UTC)

Sasuke's UNS4 jutsu
Second image from this tweet shows the names of Sasuke's new jutsu and ougi. I've already added Blaze Release: Great Fireball Technique. Is the image quality enough to say if it's Takemikazuchi or Takamikazuchi in his ultimate? We currently have Takemikazuchi on account of audio, but all English subtitles so far listed it Takamikazuchi. There's also the kanji for Chidori: Planet Splitter and Onyx Chidori. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 23:32, December 20, 2015 (UTC)
 * Sorry for intruding, but I wanted to help with this too. For Takemikazuchi, that one is correct, since there is no "Takamikazuchi" at all. Why english subs call it that way, I have no idea(although maybe it's because they're mixing it with "Taka"...?) As for other jutsu's, Onyx Chidori seems to be and Chidori: Planet Splitter is . I'm not 100% sure, though, so if Seelentau could confirm these? Again, sorry for intruding. --JouXIII (talk) 00:43, December 21, 2015 (UTC)
 * Yup, it's タケ take. The rest is as Jou explained. • Seelentau 愛 議 08:34, December 21, 2015 (UTC)
 * Are the translations "Onyx Chidori" and "Planet Splitter" still correct though? As far as the "onyx" goes, I have not found any translation of onyx that looks like that, and the only translation for "kuroki" written like that I found was just "black", no different from "kuroi". Is there any difference between "kuroki" and "kuroi"? Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 14:24, December 21, 2015 (UTC)
 * Well, if we go to literal translation, 黒き千鳥 would be "Black Thousand Birds"(there doesn't seem to be much difference between kuroi and kuroki[if we believe this])and 千鳥·星砕 would be "Thousand Birds: Star Crusher". Onyx Chidori and Planet Splitter seems to be something like "Flaming Cat Roar" is to Cat Flame Roaring Fire. That's how I see it, though...--JouXIII (talk) 15:38, December 21, 2015 (UTC)
 * I don't think there's much difference, 黒き is just a corrupted form of 黒い and mostly used with the meaning dark, as opposed to the black 黒い. 星砕 literally means star destroyer. • Seelentau 愛 議 19:31, December 22, 2015 (UTC)

i don't see why my thread was closed. i see hundreds if not thousands of equally pointless threats on here daily and they never get closed for this reason. examples. posts like Young hiruzen vs hokage kakashi,kakashi vs minato etc etc. none of which really need a thread. yet they don't get closed. i posted this on a discussion board to ask if it was true yet it is instantly deleted. my post isn't breaking any rules. it wasn't intended to incite arguments etc etc it was simply meant to bring this fact up and see if it is an actual fact.

It does if we're talking a large distance. If you want an example, play MGS5 TPP. It incorporates gravity so if you try to aim long distance, it'll curve.Cloudtheavenger (talk) 19:28, February 12, 2016 (UTC)

Why did you take down my post thinking it was advertisement?
Hi, you took down my thread and called it advertisement even though I just wanted more people to discuss with. There was way too much to write down, the video was 17 whole minutes man.. Why is it that you condescendingly said "nice advertisement bro"? I thought it was a little disrespectful especially since you took my thread down with it. No one was commenting on my video and it was a concept that I wanted to discuss with people so why is that so Wrong? If I wanted advertisement, I have other places I'd be able to go to. I'm here because this is a website of KNOWLEDGEABLE Naruto fans so it'd be much easier to discuss a topic as complicated as this. I don't care if they leave a comment or like the video or anything else like that I could't care less. Look through my channel even, I DON'T DO IT FOR THE FAME, FOR THE SUBS, NONE OF IT BRO.. I thought this was a site for fair discussions not one for condescending comments from people who were given a little more power from the site and ones that always convict before finding out the reasons why. Come on bro, I'm sure that's not what you want people to think of this site...

Re: Ages
Those edits I did were a while ago. I noticed that for some reason the third databook claimed everyone of the Konoha 11 except Naruto and Sakura to be either 16 or 17 while the other two are 15. But someone changed the ages to all be two years and a half years older than they were in end of Part I. I assumed that it was correct since nobody fixed it or anything. So by a timeline I created and by some helpful use of your timeline, I deducted the ages. For example, Deidara being 18-19 before his death, instead of being 19 throughout his time in Part II alive. But what are saying is that if the character's age is recorded as such, we keep it that age unless the databooks adds something more. But the fact that the ages seems to be all over the place. Such as Itachi being 21 but there is no way that he was 21 throughout his time in Part 2. And since the time skip was two and half years, I put 20-21. Are you saying as a fan wiki that we can't adjust the ages based on evidence? --Rai 水 (talk) 19:41, March 27, 2016 (UTC)
 * That is always what you say. But we can fix and/or adjust things on the wiki. We've been doing it for quite a while now. Just like we added people as users of Yin Release or as users of Summoning Technique despite the databook not listing them. As long as we some valid evidence, it seems fine. --Rai 水 (talk) 19:49, March 27, 2016 (UTC)
 * There is no way that that much time passed by to cover the Kazekage Arc and Tenchi Bridge Arc for everyone of the Konoha 11 to be 16 or 17 yet, which is why people corrected their ages to be either 15-17 or 16-18 minus Hinata (15-16 instead of 16) and Lee (16-17 instead of 17) by the end of Part 2. Unless those ages made up by the Itachi Pursuit Mission but that leaves confusion. The current way helps readers and users alike understand better. Also, your timeline us pretty good and while it doesn't need to be on a main page, it credibility shouldn't be ignored either. --Rai 水 (talk) 20:06, March 27, 2016 (UTC)
 * So are everyone of the Konoha 11 ages correct from the databook? I'm just saying I didn't edit does ages. --Rai 水 (talk) 20:19, March 27, 2016 (UTC)
 * I adjusted the ages of most of the characters if not all. Only the characters that came to mind I corrected. The Konoha 11 ages are now all correct. I used a site that showed me databooks 1-3 but for databook 4 it had little to no info on the characters and so besides the obvious ones, I don't know if Anko, Kurenai, Ibiki, Iruka, Hidan, Yamato, Kisame, Homura, Koharu, Ebisu and Ebizō was given an adjusted age in it. If they are, can you adjust the age for me, I'd appreciate it. Although I thought we would adjust it based on who's birthdays were before October 10th as that showed that at least a year passed. --Rai 水 (talk) 05:05, March 28, 2016 (UTC)
 * Oh nevermind. I see that there tons databook 4 info on narutoforums. --Rai 水 (talk) 18:39, March 28, 2016 (UTC)

Weird stuff at Japanese Wikipedia
So, from time to time, I check the Japanese Wikipedia articles to see if they've added something we don't have. This month, an IP added stuff. A lot. The articles are: NARUTO -ナルト-の術, 血継限界, and 口寄せの術. There's legit stuff in what he added, like stuff from the novels we also have, some of it even stuff that you translated for us, if I'm not mistaken. However, there's some stuff there I have never seen anywhere. Some of it looks straight up fanon crap. Basically, using the compare revisions tool, compare the last revision from February to the current revision. Is there anything there that is legit we don't have? Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 04:08, March 28, 2016 (UTC)
 * Basically, everything that was changed since February could use some scrutiny. I don't know if it changes for you due to time zones, but these are the revision comparisons I get. For NARUTO -ナルト-の術, 血継限界 (I see you there), and 口寄せの術. Stuff like Typhoon Release, or in the jutsu article, that Wood Release is earth, water, and yang, instead of just earth and water. Basically, if it's highlighted in any way in those three links above, it could use some fact checking. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 21:34, March 29, 2016 (UTC)

Names
I noticed the first names are always written in Katakana. Is Katakana for first names the English version of capitalizing names?
