Up To No Good

soc_puppetSo, for the past couple of days I've been marathoning the Naruto manga. This is both a good thing and a bad thing: good because I'm catching up in the storyline and will finally know things firsthand; bad because I've marathoned manga before--notably Bleach--and I didn't remember things as well as I would have liked -_-a which does not bode well for things this time around. Finding out things firsthand, however, has won over possible memory issues, so reading I will go. I can always re-read later.
The mythology/folklore fan in me about went nuts over some of that stuff--especially when Sarutobi summoned King Enma and he turned into a (the?) nyoi-bo XD I don't hate Sasuke yet, and with luck I never will, but I can definitely see signs of what's to come. Still feel like smacking him upside the head from time to time, though. Also, I have a huge soft spot for Gaara. It is humongous. It makes me go all warm and mushy inside sometimes ^^; And the Tanuki stuff. Oh God, the Tanuki stuff ♥ It was sealed in a kettle for crying out loud! ...Because of this, I really fear for when Gaara goes through puberty. No, not the kettle thing. The Tanuki thing. ...I'll explain later.
I'm still not sure whether I like Itachi or not. From what I can pick up from reading too much fanfic, he probably has the Ronin Death Fetish--which is a contradictory conclusion in all too many ways. I mean, in some ways, he's a ronin, but in others, he's not. It makes my head hurt if I try to think about it for too long. Also, I maintain that he would be much more attractive as a girl--which breeds far too many crack bunnies, so I'm going to leave that thought right where it is, thank you very much.
Speaking of crack theories, this is causing my Tengu theory to grow very rapidly. Like a fungus on an agar plate in a warm enviornment. Oh Sasuke, you little stuck-up prick, you're just so obsessed with honor ♥ Too bad your nose isn't really long enough for my crack theory to have any bearing, though the hair does wonders to make up for it ♥
I'm delighted to finally be getting to know the other ninjas around Naruto's age better. Much love to Kishimoto-sensei for the psychology involved; he did good, I think. I am overcome with affection and amusement for Shikamaru. His attitude toward life in genearl slays me. I love how he had absolutely everything planned out for later on in life--like which gender his first child will be; like he has any choice in the matter!
I was also quite satisfied to see Naruto wipe the floor with Neji's sorry fate-obsessed ass. He had that coming, I think. And Hinata's team, I think, is like Team 7, except slightly more well adjusted. Or something. Makes one wonder if there are actually any well adjusted demon-kids out there or if that's just a pipe dream.
Okay, stopping here, because otherwise I'll be talking all day.
Warg, the Fourth of July is coming up @_@ And yet, I am only mildly anxious about the parade. I don't know why this always happens. You'd think someone with an anxiety disorder would be fretting herself to pieces, but I'm mostly worried about which spinny exersizes to do and how much practice I'll need before then--and whether I'll be able to get over my self-conciousness enough to practice. Other than that, nothing. I'm not really worried about it at all. ...I never got this way about tests, either. How strange.
Pat, we have no concrete plans for fireworks. We'd be happy to piggyback on yours.
Connection went on the fritz again yesterday. I think I may have spotted a pattern, but I'm not going to count my chickens yet. We'll have to see what happens.
On a different note, I think I've been a bit of a spoiled brat recently. I shall have to do something to fix this.

You're talking about his nads, right?no subject

Date: 2005-07-03 06:27 am (UTC)*laughs* It actually fits! You know that Tanuki can transform their nads and store things in them, right? XDno subject
