Any one keeping up with Naruto Shippuuden? I am. I liked the latest two eps of the Jarayia chronicles... not epic fights but an interesting story to hear. It'll be back into the action next ep I'm sure.

Yea I must say that the Rinnegan was pretty damn cool to see on that kid ^_^. I always knew that he was Naruto's father although they named him from the character in the book - which was interesting/nice.

Not anime: I just watched Wanted for the first time ^_^ LOVED IT!1!!

WARNING TO ALL ANIME - WATCHERS!

(Excluding message to anime watchers who are also manga readers of the corresponding anime)


If you are currently watching an anime series, do not read the manga corresponding to that anime / chapter. (Unless you have already finished it and are watching it again, derrr.)


There is a devastating trend that has been consistent in all anime watchers who have decided to resort to reading the corresponding manga just to:
"Find out what happens next--"



I will now go through a few steps of what has happened to myself and many unfortunate fans.


1. Watching anime... (in this case, Bleach *drools*)

2a) Up to the latest episode release; yearning to find out what happens next
2b)
Net is capped, might as well read manga as it is not too net-intensive

3. Resort to reading online manga to "find out what happens next"

4. THE ADDICTION STARTS. Get up to the latest manga/series of events.

5. After finding out what happens in the anime (as it corresponds to the manga), you lose interest in the anime, as you already know what happens thus far and only desire in reading what is next.


* * * * * * * *
As you have read up to this point, you now have the undeniable obligation to warn others of this unfortunate effect. Remember to resist temptation and just wait for the next episode!!
* * * * * * * *


Now for some random terms that only advanced Bleach & Naruto manga readers will understand.

This will make absolutely no sense...
These are what spoilers look like.
Kids, look away.

Bleach:
"BAN KAI:
Jakuho Raikoben!"

* Finally, another Captain-level BAN KAI!
* Which captain's BAN KAI could this be?

Naruto:
"To have everything one with me, I mean to achieve a 'complete form' in which all is united"
-- "Tobi" (???)



* * * *

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
As this is "The Anime Thread" I thought it might be helpful to post this advice.

Please note that this post is also a result of intensive procrastination.
This shouldn't be taken too seriously, lol :p

Anyways, happy anime-watching kupo's!

Did you watch the latest ep?
I knew Pain was Nagato!!! I wonder what happened to make him become a psycho.

@xMaff - thanks for the warning, but i'm too lazy to ever read manga XD

Manga is sooo crappy - just the nature of it makes it frustrating to watch... DBZ is a slight exception to this, due to the originality and good coherence of features.
