Talk:Muta Aburame

Destruction Bug Host
As a member of the Aburame clan, shouldn't she have that technique added to her arsenal? Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 22:52, November 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, after all she did battle Konan and that's probably what's in her gourd/jar thingy --Cerez365 (talk) 01:12, November 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * We don't know if she can use Kikaichū's. She is using earthworms. geohound (talk) 13:50, November 4, 2010 (UTC)

Name
Was there any indication at all in the chapter that her Ranka is her name? They the panel was, she could as easily be Muta. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 22:29, November 10, 2010 (UTC)

I don't about that. Muta is a boy's name, right? Ranka is much more like a woman's name.

My knowledge of male and female names in Japanese is as extensive as my knowledge n-dimensional equations. I know they exist and that is it. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 22:43, November 10, 2010 (UTC)

Well, if so...What should we do? I determine it was Ranka because Tokuman shouted Muta's name first and them Ranka. Muta was left of Tokuma and Ranka was on the right, so I directly look across from the talkbubble and concluded that her name was Ranka.-- Ninja Sheik  22:49, November 10, 2010 (UTC)


 * The difference between boys' names and girls' names is a lot less clear than in most Western countries and the situation is even worse in manga. In this case, Muta isn't an existing name as far as I know, but sounds like a boys' name because it ends in -ta. Ranka could actually be an existing girls' name, depending on the way it is written. Regardless, it obviously sounds like a girls' name. Both could, however, be used for either gender.
 * Even if this wasn't the case and they would both be exclusive for a specific gender, this needn't be the case in the manga. Hayate, Izumo, and Haku are relatively common girls' names in real-life Japan. Hizashi, Hiashi, Neji, Asuma, Kakashi, et cetera can all be used as girls' names as well. —ShounenSuki (talk 23:46, November 10, 2010 (UTC)

Worms or Larva
She claims to be using insects on page 6 ch 515, I think they are grubs or larva. Arrancar79 (talk) 23:15, November 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * Which are still insects. —ShounenSuki (talk 23:34, November 10, 2010 (UTC)
