Blissful Ignorance

I'm not against SasuSaku here, I'm just sort of staying away from it for a while. I see way too much of that couple fics, and so....(I'm not going to point out how Sasuke is acting right now).

Ano, I want more NaruHina. But since this is a shounen manga, as long as there is a HUGE hint that the couple is together, then I'm satisfied. Fanfics are aplenty (if ppl, including LAZY me, writes them more) so I'm okay with that.

Well...I'll be off reading more Naruto fics. Ciao!

Okay! *gets a crazy glint in her eye* So for our petition, we want more character development for Shino, more NejiTen, more NaruHina, and for Sasuke to stop acting like a freak! Oh, and of course, Kakashi maskless. Mostly for me. Eheheh.

Yeah yeah, most people seem to think that Neji and Chouji are dead. Or at least, Chouji. *sighs* But I'm a happy-ending fanatic at heart, so I want them both to live. Heehee.

I love NaruHina too! Let's write more fanfics! ^________^

I still love SasuSaku. Even if Sasuke is going through some major issues right now. I agree that the fanbase for this coupling is slipping... at least, the fanfics are. I'd write one myself, but somehow I don't have inspiration. Somehow I want to write NaruHina. o.O Ah well.

I'll second (or third, or whatever) that petition! Add my name to it! Let the voices of the people be heard from the mountaintops! For what is life, without change? What is...THUD!!! {shut up, Shakespeare!}

And I agree with you, I don't believe Chouji or Neji will die, I was just pointing out that Neji is badly injured and will probably take a lot of time to heal his wounds, possibly ending up in a coma (since he is currently unconscious), which would make it hard for his character to devolop. Chouji's at least up and walking, so I'm pretty sure he'll pull out of this just fine.

Hell yeah! (Pardon the language, minna.) I like Neji and Hinata. In fact, I like the Hyuuga cousins, period. They are the only interesting Hyuugas in the manga (not counting Hiashi and Hinabi), in my opinion.

Totally agree w/ being a HE fan. So I'm staying optimistic of Neji and Chouji.

As to the petition: Hear, hear!!!

Yay for happy endings! [And petitions! And... Shakespeare?]

Heehee. I like the Hyuugas too. Neji and Hinata are nice. Hiashi seems like a jerk. Hanabi... doesn't really get a lot of character development, so I don't have any opinion on her..

*scratches head* You guys have any opinions on Lee/Saku? [Hahah... when I run out of things to say I always ask your opinion on random subjects..]

I...nth the petition!!!!!!!!! And I'm a happy ending believer also! But then again, he did kill Haku so...

Yay for Hyuugas! ^^ I dunno why, but my cousin just started calling me Hyuuga for some strange insanity going on in her head...

LeeSaku? I think it's good. It's the only Lee pairing I read anyways. ^^ I don't like LeeTen cause...I dunno...I see them as siblings. It's possible!!! Uh...they're both Chinese-y?

Hahah. Yeah... it's hard to tell what Kishimoto-sensei has going on in that crazy mind of his... *ominous music starts playing*

Calling you Hyuuga? My friend was telling me about her two-year-old cousin who was making monster sounds like "Let go!" "Stop it!" "Oh God!" So I think your troubles are minor compared to hers.. ^^;;;

Somehow I can't really picture Lee with anyone. Eheh. I think he and Sakura could be great friends eventually, though...

I was thinking about Lee... and Tenten... I don't know, she seems to motherly to be his partner, I agree with Fireblazie, he should stay... put. I thought about all the possibilites anyway and came up with... Lee/Ino Lee/Hina. Yep, the thought scared the wits outta me.

Ehehe, what about Gai I wonder... *ponders*

I thought about all the possibilites anyway and came up with... Lee/Ino Lee/Hina.

THAT'S what you came up with?! That is NOT what I would come up with! In the anime and manga, I don't think Lee even acknowledged their exist past the point that Ino fought Sakura in the preliminaries of the 3rd part of the Chunnin Exam, and Neji has a problem with the main family that he took out on Hinata in the same part of the exam. I can't even REMOTELY see that happening!

Ehehe, what about Gai I wonder... *ponders*

Eerily enough, I CAN see that happening! The only one I accept that isn't yaoi (which I hate, by the way, and have never [and will never] read!) is LeeSaku. I realize that will probably never happen, but the idea behind it is that Sasuke will never accept Sakura, and she moves on. And, considering the actions Sasuke is currently taking in the manga, I don't think he'll be allowed to see her again, if Naruto even manages to take him back to Konoha; although, before Sasuke left, and Sakura told him how he felt, he did smile and thank her; granted he knocked her out after that and left anyway, but it's the thought that counts. (I don't know how I tied the phrase "it's the thought that counts", into that, but oh well) Anyway, getting back on track, when Sakura moves on and forgets Sasuke, Naruto is with Hinata (as it SHOULD be!), and she gets closer to Lee, who (usually) has stopped copying Gai, and looks normal (for a ninja).

On a different note; hey Mindlezz, are you going to post the next 2 chapters of Drowning in Blood on this site? I read them on ff.net, and they're really good (though the cliffy on 10 is killing me; please post the next chapter!). I also read the 2 chapters you've posted of Artificial Infatuations, and THAT is a good fic (and the fact it's NaruHina only makes it better; though I wonder how you'll finish it in 5 chapters). For anyone who wants to read it, here's the link -

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2000266/1/

Read it; it's good! )Oh, and for anyone who has no idea what I'm talking about in the manga, here's a site where you can download every chapter of the manga that has been translated (by Inane), all the way up to 226.

http://www.narutochaos.com/

Be sure to get the chapters by Inane; he's the best! However, you need WINRAR to read these; if you can't get it on Naruto Chaos (the website), search for it with google. You can also get the subtitled versions of every episode (currently up to 94), so for those of you complaining the season ended with the NejiHina fight (lucky bastards, there aren't any eps in America!), you can find out what happened. You need Bittorent to download these, which I believe you can get from this site, and yes, it will take a while (with Roadrunner, it only takes an hour, but with dialup it can take around 9, from what a friend told me) In order to watch them, you need a codec called ffdshow, which you should be able to find on the internet, and possibly a codec called ogdds (but I don't think you need it for Naruto eps). You can get eps for just about any anime on the internet if you look (I've got all Naruto currently out, all FMP, Rurouni Kenshin, Hikaru no Go, and more), and they all use different codecs (some use combinations), though I've only ever needed those 2 and one called dvobsub. I hope some of you will benefit from this information.

~here's hoping~

Wow, that was a long post. XD

Seriously, I can't picture Lee with anyone. He's just a stand-alone kinda guy, methinks. You know, like how Kakashi is awesome as a single. If I *had* to pick, I suppose LeeSaku would be decent.

Oh, I read that fanfic by MindLezz! It was hilarious so far... he's in love with Sasuke by night but hates him by day... [seriously, picture the yaoi fangirls squealing..] loved the SasuSaku hints in there, too. It'll be interesting how she'll stick NaruHina in.. ^_^

YEAH! *glares at the people complaining about the NejiHina fight* Don't complain, because we don't have the anime in the US! *begins to cry*

Who do you think will license Naruto [the anime] in America, though? o.O
