Oh man what a joy.....

Atleast some new Akatsuki characters, gotta enjoy them before he ruins the characters.

Very cool stuff

Though, as you stated, I fear Kishimoto will turn everything into a septic leekage

Whoa, finally the secondary characters appear, just because of that the chapter was readable, and we get to see 2 new Akatsuki members AND the two tails holder (a chick).
Kishimoto must have lost his pot.

Back to being decent, I see.

I hear Kishimoto recently stated that he had done all he had intended to do with Naruto. So, it's safe to assume he's looking to wrap the series up soon. I just hope he does it properly.

Where did you hear that? It must come from a bloodlusted fan that doesn't want his beloved series to go down further.

I could have spread that rumor. And if it's somehow true, it's freakin sad, that means he wraps Akatsuki business, Sasuke/Oro beat down the whole shit before Naruto's power ward Oro off, welcome back Sasuke. And no more Lee, Hina, etc...

I don´t buy it, Naruto is the kind of series aiming to have 500 chapters, like Inu Yasha and One Piece.

yea where did you hear it from?
its a mixed bag if the series is really going to end soon.
the storyline(s) didnt seem like it was ending soon but if it means the end to pointless draggy pages of non-story material, its a blessing.

then again we would have missed all the possible stories about the other characters like lee, shikamaru, etc... like albator pointed out.
plots and characters which kishimoto should have been exploring in the 1st place......
not wasting everyone's time with worthless roundabouts.

Oh, my best friend told me that he had read it in a new interview. My friend is very reputable, and wouldn't lie to me. He's not some loser fanboi who'd just make shit up. However, I'll ask him where he found the interview when I get a chance. Whether or not the series is going to end soon is merely an assumption. For all we know, he could keep dragging it on. However, at this quality I really hope not. If you think about it, it makes perfect sense as to the huge drop in quality. He simply ran out of inspiration, and didn't have anything written past the Sound Five arc. I hope he either finds some new inspiration, or just ends the series, because continuing to drag on with this filler-esque quality crap would be horrible.

ok looks like the plot on the "akatsuki going after the multi-tailed beasts" is moving again and the plot on "getting sasuke back" is on the backburner again.

hopefully we can get a nice arc on naruto's chuunin exams and then everyone's juunin exams.
that would be awesome to see.

Post by **ddem1** » Fri Jun 30, 2006 11:23 pm

Aren't the chuunin exams over? Or am I nuts

From 312:

Post by **Quest** » Sat Jul 01, 2006 6:21 am

naruto did not pass the exam.
remember?

Post by **ddem1** » Sat Jul 01, 2006 9:16 am

Yeah, but Shikamaru says in that page that the exams are over... So couldn't do them now even if he wanted to

Post by **Quest** » Sat Jul 01, 2006 9:35 am

i figured he could still take the exam with konohamaru.
=P

Ugh, just read 313.
(ddem1, where did you get that high quality scanlation?)
I think he is (if not already) ruining the series.
None of this will convert well into the Anime series.
He killed off a Jinchuuriki too easily and quickly (end of a chapter to introduce, half way through the next chapter she's killed.)
I really dislike this new art style he's using with the Jinchuuriki forms.
Real ugly, Naruto has gotten boring.
The characters have gotten unentertainingly powerful.
Susuke stronger & more evil then Kyuubi in 309?...
Seriously, Susuke must be stronger then Itatchi by now.
Sigh, Berserk will always be better then Naruto and any other Manga's in my mind....
LOL, I'm comparing Berserk to Naruto.

IF Naruto was really wrapping up soon, I Do not know if I HONESTLY would really care lately I have been indiffrent about EVERYTHING Naruto. I probally wouldn't care at all.

This manga is so bad, what more can you say without repeating yourself?

Post by **Grahf** » Tue Jul 04, 2006 2:52 am

huh ?? I haven't noticed.

Post by **Quest** » Sat Jul 08, 2006 9:55 am

looks like the goodness is coming back again.
1 main plot event
1 character revelation
1 lesson on chakra

Post by **Starnum** » Mon Jul 10, 2006 9:35 am

Man, I sure hope so.

Chap 315

http://mangahelpers.com/forum/index.php?topic=5967.0

I'm going to get crazy and say that Naruto is actually getting better. Compared to what it was, that is. See we used to have 1 exciting-good chapter and then 5 to 8 crappy ones. Nowadays is 1good-2 or 3 bads. SO the ratio is improving.

Kubo better get his act together, because Bleach is on its way to become as bad as Naruto.

Post by **Grahf** » Fri Jul 14, 2006 2:11 am

yeah that was a good chapter.
