YALL HOWDAFUQ LMAO 

It was a double elimination

Has anyone drawn this yet? If someone has, I haven’t seen it at least and I thought it had to be done

Based on this post by @franruto

You like JoJo bizzare adventure cool, then why bother with the series at all? LMAO, let me guess your otp didn't happened your blog popper out when that shiy finished, why didn't you complaint when it was relevant? You're either a salty Karin fan, closet Hinata fan, or the obvious SNS shipper they're know you make a devil advocate blog. Sakurs deserves backlash but the rest is just using her as a scapegoat for the stupid fanboys and Fujoshi cunts. SMH this fandom won't die cause people like you.

“why bother”? I’ve already answered, because I hate it’s a fantasy for beta male. I hate meta male. It’s also fascist propaganda. How do you know I didn’t complain about it? I did complain about it before the ending on my personal blog, and regularly went to narutoforum’s anti clubs to have a good laugh. People watched KOL’s chapter reviews just to see him hate on naruto. The question should be naruto hate has always been there, why’re YOU bothered by it NOW?

Let me ask you something, if you think jojo is cool, why do you like naruto? it’s like the total opposite of jojo. If jojo is manly, naruto is “how not to be a man”. why do you care if someone is hating on it?

If you actually bother to check my blog, I hate on naruto uzumaki and Itachi way more often than I talk about ships. If you hate sakura, go make your own anti sakura blog, I encourage you to do so. But you won’t change my mind about this series, I hate all of it, not just sakura.

you’re also the one who sent this sakura bashing anon to me right? post it on your own blog, I don’t get why ppl send me stuff like that when they can just post their hate on their own blogs. We need more anti blogs.

“Sakura is a fucking cunt, she’s ugly no one would look twice at her, backstabber, and her nasty attitude. Kishi said hated her. She fucked up Ino relationship for a guy that didn’t give a shit about her, also Ino said she wished she would’ve stay in her shell aka shy and scared lol, she was a child and she knew Sakura was a bitch. She deserves the hate, she’s worthless, she should’ve died the worse way possible what has she gain nothing but to be left preggers alone!! Ino and Hinata are better.“

Everyone hate something in naruto, you go ahead and do your hate blog, and I do mine. Why’re you asking why I hate naruto? if you hate something in it too, shouldn’t it be obvious to you? it’s fucking badly written, it’s an embarrassment to the genre.There’re narutards who treat it like it’s a masterpiece makes me angry.

To tell you the truth, I’m pretty happy narusaku didn’t happen, because I don’t think I could stand them being smug about this stupid idea of “getting over your crush” makes you a feminist or a strong female character. The idea of Naruto,”the nice guy”, finally getting the girl like some prize also annoys me. I’m also very happy Hinata is finally getting the hate she deserves after The Last. People used to give her free pass because she’s shy. She’s just dumbfuck who’s thirsty for a boy. There’re still people who defend her after she gushed over naruto kun’s hand right in front of neji’s corpse is just mind boggling. For the whole of part 2, Hinata is like a mindless sex robot with 30 lines in her codes, all she does is blushes, says “naruto kun”, tries to get herself killed for naruto because it’s …romantic? She has nice tits, a doormat, good wish fulfilment for beta male, that’s about it. 

Don’t ever try to persuade me to stop hating naruto. I’ve got hundreds of such anons for the last few years already. If I hate something, I say it. It’s just what I do. I still go to forums to shit on a local TV series aired 6 years ago. Naruto is just another series I hate as a hobby.

SNAKEBERT

-and also-

@anoceaninthesun said:

So where does you calling Orochimaru “snakebert” come from? Always been curious. Also, I will never read Boruto for a plethora of reasons, so you mind saying more about how Mitsuki was brainwashed/conditioned into being obsessed with the Burrito? Thanks~

Orochimaru is written 大蛇丸 in kanji, O-rochi-maru.

O - 大 - big, great, grand; a respectful prefixrochi - 蛇 - snakemaru - 丸 - ball, pill, spherical, round thing; a masculine name suffix

So that last one, -maru, is used as a suffix in Japanese for male names. Orochimaru isn’t the only -maru in Naruto. There’s also Shikamaru, Konohamaru, Akamaru… and can also be found in the casts of other anime such as Sesshoumaru from Inuyasha, real people like comedian Hakata Hanamaru, and also it’s the traditional ending for ships’ names in Japan.

So the important thing to know about -maru is that it has a meaning but in another sense it does not have a meaning, only a sound and vague “male name”-ness. Just like there are lots of English names that have “-bert” at the ending. Technically “-bert” means “bright”. “-maru”, in practice, means “round” in the same way that “-bert” means “bright”.

So, I overtranslate Orochimaru into Snakebert, for a few reasons.

1. To belittle him and thus soothe my anti-orochimaru feelings2. To avoid appearing in casual “orochimaru” search on The Tumbles (hint: searching with # in front of the search term will get you only things deliberately tagged)3. It’s Funny

(Shikamaru, Konohamaru, and Akamaru would be Deerbert, Leafbert, and Redbert respectively)

Regarding Mitsuki, you can see me pull the receipts here.

Kishimoto’s one-shot was apparently (I haven’t subjected myself to it) more or less faithfully adapted into Boruto episode 39, and yet Boruto defenders reacted like this:

Which was the point that I realized that people who like Boruto deserve Boruto. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Nrrghhh Oni Madara hoho Btw that true oni looking face is not a mask

[konohaaintshit]

Sure no problem come by whenever! I also feel somewhat alone on this too lmao. I only got into snk after season 2 finished which was like a 3 year wait for it 😱 but thankfully only a year (3rd season coming out this year btw) of waiting for the next season. So fucking hyped! Also I’m always open to discuss snk! Just hmu 🤗

Hey! So I stared reading AoT (five years too late but I caved and watched the anime, became addicted and craved more) however I just got to the part where Mr Ackerman appears and Historia is named the new titan and all her background—the political plot of this story is really confusing..but, in your opinion, is worth it to keep reading? There is less and less titan stuff and it seems to be turning into humans against humans. am I diving too deep to finish or should I bail?

You’re at the point where a lot of people were turned off by. But that was when they were looking forward to every new chapter. I would say to keep reading it. The manga right now has 103 chapters, you don’t have to wait months for the entire thing to be resolved and when I say that as soon as you get into Marley and beyond, your interest will be piqued. Rn at 103 I’m at the edge of my seat like wishing Isayama would release chapters right away because I wanna know what happens!

Not to say the uprisig arc is boring at the least because it’s where you dive into the paradis civilians and then government. I’m not sure if you’re far into the crystal cave thing yet but you’ll get to know more about the history of ackermans. I really loved it tbh. And also! Right after that is a big…tragedy I would say but I won’t spoil it other than that. There’s so much more to talk about as in the maturity of the characters, the plot, the reasons, the parallels, and how little tid bits shown in the manga makes perfect sense as you get to the most recent chapters and omfg it’s still not enough because yams gives you enough information to be satisfied but not enough to truly know. Yanno what I mean? If you want to know more or if you want something clarified just hmu on private chat!P.s historia is named the new ruler for paradis. She’s not a titan.

And also! Season 3 comes this year! Omfg.

Strategy in SnK: Marley’s Weakness plays to SC’s strength

The first clash between Paradis and Marley from chapter 101-3 has brilliantly illustrated the military strategy, strength as well as weakness from both sides.

Marley, being the dominant world power, relies heavily on Titan technology. And from the beginning of the Marley arc their strategy includes overwhelming their enemies with brute military force. We see it again in the Paradis-Marley clash when Margath mobilises vast military resources to tighten the noose and close the escape route of just a few enemies.

However, in chapter 103 their weakness really shows. Having been used to dominating the battlefield, underestimates the enemies’ strategy (which I’ll explore a bit later) and never formed a coherent strategy around how to deal with them.

We see sending battleships to Paradis island. How many? 37? You think you’d start revising notes when 5 or 6 didn’t make it back. We see them planning to get back to Paradis for one last showdown. But the strategy, objective, entry, exit of the operation were all up for grasps. In fact, this is exactly the same mistakes as the Warrior mission in 845. The plan was pretty much ‘send a bunch of kids to retrieve the Founding Titan’. How? Well, it’s up to them to improvise, isn’t it?!

They had four years. Four years before they focused on the threat of Paradis island. Yes, it was because they had had a bigger war on their hands. But it did not change the fact that in this clash they were very ill-prepared strategy-wise. And let’s not forget that they knew they had been infiltrated and still didn’t come up with a proper strategy. Or at least, it hasn’t been revealed yet. But if there is, it does not seem to be working. For someone who knows there are spies, Margath is awfully lax with keeping watch of his Warriors.

Pieck and Porco’s conversation shows how the Warriors could not unify behind a single strategy.

Also, having been used to dominating the battlefield with their Titan power, they become paralysed and distracted when they see a comrade fall.

Again

and again

They became overwhelmed with shock - How could this happen? How could the mighty Ttitan shifters have fallen? - and couldn’t recover. Had they chosen to focus on changing their strategy or re-evaluating their situation, they wouldn’t leave themselves in vulnerable state for the enemies to exploit.

Porco even broke rank, when it was clear that had he stayed he could’ve protected the Cart Titan. Both of them let their emotions get the better of them.

Even smart, calm-headed Pieck was no exception.

This is exactly the opposite of the Survey Corps (the veterans at least) who couldn’t afford to let grief cloud their judgements because the stakes is always against them, had always chosen to put the survival of their cause and the realisation of their objectives first. There would be a time for mourning dead comrades later. 

So while the Warriors were distracted and confused Jean and Sasha took their opportunity.

They immobilised the Pantzer unit. Didn’t bother themselves with hitting the armour, they targeted the unit’s weakness: humans behind the dangerous machine guns. Putting themselves in front of the enemy. Targeting their weakness. 

The result drives further panic into the already confused the Pantzer unit.

Then the SC targeted the Cart Titans limbs to neutralised its mobility.

… and up until the last moment Pieck’s last thoughts still were

Let’s be clear. The SC is the disadvantaged party from the start, but is that any news? just the fact that they have come this far is brilliant testament to their formidable battle prowess and strategy. They were able to predict to which places their enemy would mobilise their forces, and sent Armin there. I think it was clear in hindsight that the Colossal Titan wouldn’t drop from the sky, since Sasha spared Gabi and there wouldn’t be any point in doing that if they just decided to wipe out the entire area. Which would be bad for the exposed Corps members too. 

Now we’ll just consider the Paradis/Survey Corps forces briefly since everyone is familiar with them.

They have always been at a disadvantage. Disadvantage in numbers, compared to the other two military branches. Disadvantage against the Titans. Disadvantaged in financial sponsorship. Disadvantaged in public support. Hanji said it herself, in a particularly memorable moment in the Uprising, that the Survey Corps’s record has always been full of failures. 

But how does this shape their strategy? Well, it has led them to: 

1. Rely on small, but highly efficient and mobile groups of people. Which leads them to…

2. Rely on widespread signalling to communicate their intentions and positions.

3. Achieve the objective regardless of the means. If it means putting your body in the fire, you do it. If it means watching countless precious comrades die, you do it. Regardless of the situation, always remember the objective.

4. Follow an absolute chain of command. When there is chaos during expeditions, you don’t always know what is going on, so you have to trust your leader has the big picture.

5. Absolute teamwork and trust. Whether against discrimination or danger beyond the walls, SC members have no one to rely on except teammates.

6. Exploit your opponent’s weakness to your advantage, while play to maximise your own strength.

6. Disguise and espionage. When the public is out to get you, it’s better to blend in. Use whatever tools you have available.

7. Improvisation. Keep a calm head and analyse the situation. Thing won’t always go according to plan. There may be lags in the chain of command. Strategy may change, but the objective does not. When you see the first window of opportunity, strike.

See if you can spot how many of these strategies have the SC used during the Paradis-Marley clash. 

In this battle, they understand that they have an advantage playing a guerrilla warfare rather than a match of firepower. And what a team they make. Over 100 years of battling against the Titans have made them specialised Titan killers. They have ‘evolved’ their equipment to afford max mobility and efficiency against Titans. Against a predatory force, their ranks have gone through many trials of ‘natural selection’, if you will, to become exactly suited for the purpose of killing Titans and managing the ensuing chaos. Considering how heavily Marley’s very strength relies on the Titans, I think there is a reason to be very afraid.

Marley has been fighting the wrong war. Instead of their enemy from the other nations of the world, their greatest threat has always been Paradis island, ever since Paradis was armed with the truth. Ever since the SC decided to leave the island. It is far from clear who will emerge victorious in this fight, because the SC’s application of strategy has only at most even the battlefield. Marley still undoubtedly has their home turf advantage, and superior military resources. 

But despite the awesome last page of chap. 102 aka double panel of the two opposing forces, from chapter 103 it is clear whose rank is more unified, which side has the clearer goal.

Disclaimer: This is not a post to glorify war, or the loss of human life. Just an analysis of the strategies used in this battle. Tootles.

[konohaaintshit]

You make valid points, but I think that criticising characters like Hinata or Sakura is useless if we don't take Kishimoto into account. Like, he's the one who gave them poor characterisation and cut their character development. Hinata had so much potential to end the slavery in the Hyuuga clan, yet she ended as a housewife. Sakura began to get over Sasuke, only to become his (poorly treated) wife. This is a pattern and I think its Kishimoto to blame, not characters or their fandoms

Ask yourself, when you see people criticise Naruto and Sasuke’s character, do you feel indignant and argue people should blame kishimoto and not the characters? Probably not. How is it fair if we give Sakura and Hinata special treatment? 

On the question of whether we should blame the characters or the writers, I think we should blame the characters. When people think the plot is bad, they criticise the plot, they don’t go “please don’t hate on the plot, we should hate the writer”. When people like the characters, they make posts to wank the characters, they don’t send flowers to the writers. They don’t go “stop praising this character, the praise should go to the writers”. There’s nothing unfair about hate for characters, people are just uber sensitive and easily offended because they project themselves and relate to the characters. 

I’m so sick of hinata and sakura’s “potential”. Getting over sasuke? getting over a crush is considered to be achievement or significant personal growth these days? Naruto uzumaki was the one who promised to end the hyuuga clan slavery, not Hinata, Naruto was the one who got shat on by the writer. Kishimoto set him up as this jesus figure that would change the ninja world only to bring him down to be another government stooge who defends the old order. And I don’t see people argue we should blame kishimoto not naruto. why should hinata and sakura be treated differently? They’re not even shat on that badly compared to Naruto, Sasuke, Neji and Kakashi

[konohaaintshit]

When Naruto chasing after Hinata is considered “love” but Naruto chasing after Sasuke is considered “friendship” and an “unhealthy obsession”.

Bitch. What the Fuck?

[konohaaintshit]

Yeah Naruto wanted everyone's recognition, but it wasn't so much as the shallow reason you claim it was. It was to prove everyone who ever looked down on him wrong. It most certainly is a miracle that Naruto didn't turn and kill everyone +

A miracle? you think he’s heroic for not killing innocent people who never tried to harm him?? you think he’s justified for killing people just because they hated him and looked down on him?? and it’s a miracle he didn’t? This is scary.

Do you also think it’s a miracle that, not every kid who can get a gun ended up shooting everyone at their school because they THINK everyone at school hate them?? You really think you’re justified to kill because other people make you feel like shit? Idk man, I don’t find that kinda anger sympathetic, I think it’s self absorbed and entitled. It’s always about Naruto’s fucking feelings? isn’t it? It’s not about morals or justice. It’s about him being angry and vindictive over having his feelings hurt.

His bloody feelings….jfc….

He’s a class clown, he’s a trouble maker, he’s dead last in the class. I don’t find it outrageous people tease him. What did he want? people telling him he’s amazing while he’s just causing troubles for others?

Wanting everyone’s acknowledgement and wanting to prove everyone was wrong about him are the same thing. He’s trying to make everyone look at him favorably. You find it deep and meaningful? I think it’s pathetic his happiness is dependent on whether people like him or hate him.

[konohaaintshit]

“Chikusho domo!”

on the lookout for those pesky tailed beasts!

the last few drawings kind of got me in a Madara mood……. expect at the very least a Rikudo version soonish

[konohaaintshit]

remember that point in Naruto after which people just started like, spawning black rods out of their fucking palms

[konohaaintshit]

You know Marley, you can’t throw man eating giants at a group of people for generations and not expect them to become hardcore fighters
