HI!
welcome back
Thanks! I love Nartuo
me too!
Its such a good show and i havent watched it in a while
same but i do watch boruto and i have seen all of naruto so thats pretty awesome
Like as a kid I used to watch it a ton but as i got older i just lost time too. Which is sad becuase its such a fun show and i think that its really one of the best animes around Have you watched for a long time?
yeah ive been watching it since i was in highschool
The other one i have seen is Bleach, Death Note And of course Avatar I LOVE AVATAR
im a pretty big fan of it. lol did you realize my name is kurosakichan. lol avatar is great. i watched that when i was really really little. but stopped watching it because my parents couldnt afford tv lol
Like its so fun and i feel that avatar has so much of all the cool asain lore and such
so true we watched an episode of it in our eastern religion class to be able to explain some relgious concept it was pretty cool
I like Naruto becuase of the chakra and the intense fighting. You can have the coolest battles when you are fighting with differnt styles and elements and such No way! there really cool budhist ties in some of these shows too
yeah. i really like naruto because their powers are pretty explainable and seems most likely to occur in a real life situation. some of the animes are just super out of whack which is fun and wawesome but they seem less relatable in emotion to me
honestly though!! Its such a realist show and there are a ton of cool explainable things that really help with the flow of the show Its really believable and that why it is so good
who is your favorite character in the anime
One punch man jk Uhh probably like Lee but dont judge Sauske is sick though Like and Aang is cool too
really tell me about that why lee? what about him is so appealing to you? lol
Aang maybe then.
youre funny i was talking about naruto but thats chill too
I have watched those episodes a ton
i need to rewatch the whole avatar the airbender scene hey tell me why you like rock lee?
Rock lee has will
thats true that is a good point. he is a pretty cool dude he gets super super powerful at the end. youll have to finish it tomorrow yo! not tomorrow soon. i was listening to someone say tomorrow and i got confused lol
He is not talented in genjustsu or ninjutsu but he has lots of willpower which makes him an admirable component. i really think in real life rock lee would be an awesome defen der
totally, hes a great fighter and he is willing to take a hit as well too win
im really excited about getting to the pain arch in naruto because its the first time you really see the extent of narutos abilities to reach in and change the hearts of the
I know right, i havent seen him really fight since the start of shippuden we can see a fully realized NARTUO]
people he is fighting. i think thats his strongest ability is the ability to have empathy and understanding for the bad guys and that they are a product of their enviornments
Thats a great though
and often times the only reason they have joined the dark side for a lack of a better way of putting it. you know i think a lot of the reason he has that empathy comes from the fact that he was an orphaned child and grew up hated by the village. he was such a misfit and no one liked him, everyone judged him and he suffered tremendously during the earlier years of his life because of his parents dying to save the village by implanting and sealing the nine tails demon kurama into naturo the only child who could truly bear the weight of such a trial. because of this he experienced a lot of what the people he often has to fight experienced. lonliness, abandonement, and hatred not by any doing of his own. these things make him the most suitable to be able to understand and have compassion for his enemies and because of that his relating to them comes off genuine because it is s such. and through his power and ability he often gaiins the respect of the people who oppose him because even though he nearly experiences exactly their same trial he has take
these kinds of deeper meanings in anime make these kinds of shows so good. I wish others would watcha as much too
n the situation and used it as motivation to be able to make himself stronger as to be able to prevent others from experiencing the same thing that he went through and protect ing his friends and family around him who have helped him to feel apart of the community rather than sepearated like many of the people he faces feel because of the lack of community theyve been able to be apart of since an early age. Honestly the pain arch is one of my favorites because it puts naruto up against another of jariyas students who experiences the same situation relative to narutos as a child. pain is so powerful and also in the arch you really get to see how hard naruto has worked to be able to develop his powers to the extent that they are when he is put up agains
Student agasint student, soo classic
t pain. and you get to see him use sage mode which is really incredible and increases narutos abilities up to that point ten fold because he is able to use the energy in teh e enviornment and pulls that in to be able to use later on in his battle when he starts getting low on energy. which is super awesome if you think about it because there is unli unlimited power in the world that he is able to harness. its also super necessary for him to do this because paint is so immensly strong that he has split himself into several different beings with different powers that are all figh ting naruto at the same time. and pain has the power to summon anyone towards him. which is a big deal. pain also uses all the bars in his body as power too. i cant remember why that is though. i just reme remember his piercings being significant in some way. that also makes me remember how naruto has a lot of power in his creativity he would be a very good chess player if he ever did decide to play because his moves are often really unpredictable which is super awesome. just when you think naruto is going to lose he pulls through because of some really crazy trick he plans out . I am really in love with jariya sensai though.
I assume the piercings are tosummon more power right? He needs new tricks though]
i think hes a great comic relief character and also just a really good guy in general it makes you fall so in love with him. if i had to pick my favorite characters it would b be jariay and itatchi you wanna know something really funny? its actually really geeky but i know tat naruto has tons of references to dragon ball z. how cool is that. i guess the writes who made n
I know right
naruto was a big fan and decided to include some references. The first on being the mask of chiaotzu. that was being sold at a fair. do you know all of the important akatsuki members?
no not yet. do you? how many are there?
theres a lot but Ill name the most important ones from the weakest to the strongest im my opinion this is all my opinion but I think its pretty accurate the weakest of the members is Zetsu. He is the white pale guy with the clam shell thing around his head. He is definitely the weakest but he is very interesting because he is the one that assembled the akatsuki together in order to resurrect the ultimate boss, Kaguya the mother of chakra. also zetsu was the intel guy for everyone and he is really smart the next guy up is Don. He is the immortal guy that has a scythe of death but he is probably the most physically gifted member of the akatsuki because he  can't die unless he  starves himself to death most people probably agree that his showings in the anime or the show was not that impressive
I've never heard of Don before I had thought there was only 6 of them
it didnt take a lot to kill him later because they just needed to capture him a bit and also just use a lot of paper bombs to kill him i think that it is pretty safe to say that is any of the other members of the akatsuki faced against Don besides zetsu he would probably lose I think I get a lot of hate for the next member because it is Conan the paper jutsu girl I mean she is really strong she made the sea of paper bombs which consisted of 600 billion paper bombs and she is able to fly and teleport with her paper jutsu and Toby was almost killed by her because he underestimated but aside from being one of the original 3 of the akatsuki members she did not really do a ton and I think that the other members that I have not mentioned yet are far more superior than she is
Hmm no way!
yeah! Then I think comes Deidera the clay jutsu guy
Oh ya hes was really strong easily took down Gara
but I think from now on all of the members that I will start listing are probably really close to strength with each other yeah he did Gara was a joke to him I mean Deidara was fast enough to keep up with the Su Chi Cage in a battle in the sky. Remember the old short grandpa? he was also plenty fast enough to dodge all of gaara's sand attacks. Naruto could not hit him because he was quick enough to replace his original body with a clay clone everytime Naruto tried to attack him he was also fast enough to fight against sasuke and that really is saying something
Ya and he was super strong too. Kinda messed up in the brain though
because sasuke was definitely a lot stronger than naruto and all of the team 7 combined
Like hes an "artist"
hahah yeah totally I like that Deidara calls himself an Artist some of his most powerful attacks are C1 which he used to create all kinds of explosive animals c2 he creates an ginormous flying explosive dragon that can fight against sasuke his c3 move was so powerful that it almost blew up the entire sand village c4 is the move that will kill his enemies on a cellular level
ya i remeber that episode. He just had ahuge bird and some small spider things or something
and c0 which is a self destruct move that he used and in the comics they compare the explosion to the Jubi Blast yeah i mean this guy is so powerful i remember when I first watched him and his fights but I could not take him seriously until I research a bit more The next up is going to be the strong puppet master of the red sand, Sasori
YA! From the sand village
yes! I mean a lot of people will disagree with me but Deidara in the comic says that Sasori is stronger than he is I mean Deidara is so prideful that he killed himself because he couldn't beat sasuke and if he is that prideful I think we can belive his words when he says that Sasori is stronger than he is
Where is Sauske now? Doeshe ahve a purpose after killing itiachi
but Sasori was beaten by an old lady and Sakura but I think because of that he is considered a weaker member of the team after he kills itachi he gets a new purpose. He wants to destroy the hidden leaf village because he did not understand fully what happend to itachi and was tricked to believing that the village turned against him and I think Sasuke also wants to take over the world later but he is tricked Also I think that he feels that he too can"change the world" I like the symmetry in this show and realky intresting as well the cultraul ties to the kinds of show and how you can really see their history is why i love the shows like this.
Iknow right! Like the 9 tails and belief in the eyes and everything is so Japanese but i love that kind of metephors
I just wish shws like this never had to end its sad to know that after a while, all things come to an end.  Thats part of my reason why i love the gospel Its never ending and there is so much it can do for the mind and body. I have been in the gospel my entire life and i cant begin to describe how important it is to me. This is more important than any show or anything I have for a long time not lived the way had should have in highshool. But after years of messing up, i turned my life around and went on a mission On my mission i learned so much about life and who a belief and standards to your life can improve it Its what we do in our day to day and those principles we live by that can really affect us and help change us.
I know what you mean I feel that is the only way to be truly happy
Not even happy, but to find joy Joy is an incomprehensible happiness.
oh like eating cookies?
No... Hey so I went hiking recently up Timpanogos Mountain. The huge mountain up north and there was still a bunch of snow up there! Anyway the hike was super great. The being outside felt super refreshing and the air was so clean! Anyway when my friends and I reached the top, we saw a path leading away from the main path that kept going We decided to follow it and eventually we ended up at this downhill area. Let me try to describe it to you the best I can. So everything was covered in snow and there was a wall about five feet high. But after you climb over it there's a drop, a very very steep drop for like 10 feet. However, after you drop from that point, it's like a sled and you just slide down the huge hill. My friends and I wanted to do it but we were scared, as we should have been.
yeah that seems like a dangerous thing to do
Agreed. So what we did was we sat on top of that wall looking down at the drop for at least 30 minutes before one of my friends said "screw it" and just jumped off. The rest of us literally thought he was going to die or hurt himself really bad. But we saw his sbody get smaller and smaller and he screamed all the way down. Eventually after like 2 minutes he reached the bottom and lost momentum. He waved his hands and yelled "GET DOWN HERE! ITS SAFE!" That's when the rest of us got the nerve to finally jump. Three of us did it on the count of 3 and we went down together and the two scaredy cats behind did it eventually too. It was so much fun! Really scary at first but it was like a roller coaster ride. After we told the rest of our friends who didn't go with us and they were apalled. They said that it was a good thing that the snow was deep because there are usually a bunch of rocks that stick up and you could hit your tail bone while sliding down and get hurt really bad. After hearing that I was super scared and thought of all the things that could have gone wrong but was thankful that it didn't
Wow that's a scary story... I don't think I'd ever do something like that haha
Yeah I would advise against it. It was a stupid decision that the group made. Not sure why we even did it. Some of us thought it would be a short cut But in fact it took longer than normal if we had decided to go down the normal trail because we spent so much time being indecisive haha
Well, I'm glad you guys are ok. It would be terrible if anything happened to you guys.
Hiking is one of my favorite past time activities. I love going outside and being surrounded by nature. There's just something about being at one with nature you know? Last summer my friends and I from work decided we wanted to go hike stewart falls. But the other half of the group wanted to go to  the amusement park Lagoon So because we were indecisive again, we all settled on doing both but started with lagoon. It was a bad day for my friend and I. So naturally I don't have a strong stomach for roller coasters, even the smaller rides. To start off easy the group said that we should go on rattle snake rapids It's a ride that has a stream of water and you're floating on a ride. Anyway we got super wet and to dry off I started to shake my head back and forth. It was dumb but I was drenched and wanted to get rid of some of the water on me. I disregarded the fact that my face was slippery and my glasses flew right off my head.
Oh no! That's terrible.... were you able to get them back ??
Well, sadly no. I wasn't able to get them back. So after losing my glasses, I couldn't believe it so I thought it landed in the raft and my friends were hiding it from me. Little did I know, my friends too thought I lost my glasses I started asking everyone on the boat to give my glasses back and they were like Jae, we don't have your glasses. You actually lost them. I felt super bad but my friends felt even worse because I was one of the people that didn't want to go to Lagoon but preferred hiking Anyway I went to the front office and told them I lost my glasses. All they did was give me a slip of paper and write down what I lost, how I lost it, and where I think I lost it Then they said if they ever find it, they'll contact me lol.... I asked them after if there's any chance of finding it and they said slim to none. I was super depressed the rest of the trip because I couldn't see a single thing. It's a good thing they had a pool area where you could rest and tan. Because that's all I did while the rest of the group had fun for 3 hours haha
Oh man.... but you said it was a bad day for your and your friend. What happened to your friend?
LOL... let me tell ya. So after I tanned in the pool area for the rest of the time, my group came back to fetch me and said we should go hiking! In my head I was like, guys I don't have my glasses so I can't see a single thing around me. I mean, I could see pretty well without them but anything further than my arm's reach would make me dizzy and the view wars blurry. Anyway eventually I gave in and sad ok, we should go hiking. My friend along with two others decided to go hiking to Stewart falls after the trip to the Lagoon amusement park. We hiked up there and got to see the beautiful water fall. The water felt super good. It was kind of cold but nothing I couldn't get used to. So here's the bad part that happened to my friend. He was the first one to go into the water fall and when he went inside and came out, he lost something He too wears glasses and the waterfall took them straight off his face. He didn't really think about it at first and felt dumb. I would too but he probably thought the same thing when I shook my head around at the amusement park to get rid of the water. Anyway when my friend came out he was like "guys, I lost my glasses too" We all laughed thinking he was making fun of me for losing mine but after laughing for like 10 seconds we realized he was serious.
Oh shoot.... two glasses lost in one day Thats very unfortunate
Yeah both of us lost our glasses... By the time we finished looking for his glasses, it was getting pretty late and started getting cold from all the water We ended being blind and cold it wasn't a good day for any of us haha
Yeah I wouldn't be too happy if I lost my glasses too... Do you have another story you'd like to share?
Mmm let me think It's not much of a story but I do feel like I need to talk about my addiction to soda haha.
Hey soda is hard to stop drinking I personally don't drink them but I know people have a hard time
Yeah I know... my favorite drink years ago was the classic coca cola. I drank that like milk. My mom never liked me drinking it so much but she couldn't really stop me I wished I had listened to her because I feel like I would be healthier now. I'm better now because I don't drink nearly as much as I used to but I still have a coke now and t then But as the years passed, I began to like Mt. Dew more than cocal cola It probably a worse drink since it has more sugar but it's usually my go to drink now. My brother still drinks a ton of soda though. Not only that but he doesn't really exerci exercise.
Oh dang... you should take him to go rock climbing with you
Yeah I try to get him to go along but he says no. He's actually very funny. He says he's allergic to exercise. He says it's not natural for him to sweat and run out of breath He's being a troll and he's not serious but he's like running out of breath and sweating and getting tired aren't good signs. We laughed it off in the beginning but we have to start getting him to go to the gym more.
Yeah take him go out more!! He really needs to keep up his body!!
Have heard of a game called Pokemon GO? It was super hyped up when it first came out but it's a dead game now. My brother recently downloaded it onto his phone again and told me that BYU has a lot of people playing it still. I wasn't surprised haha. I used to remember people gathering up at the Provo City Library and staying there over night to catch pokemon The reason why the Provo City Library was such a hit was because it was surrounded by four Poke Stops in close vicinity to each other.
Haha I played that when it first came out Remember all the people at the provo library until they shut it down?
I swear at least 200 people were on the lawn of the Provo City Library at all times.
Yeah I still have photos of it It was so crazy. People would bring out extension cords and give free charging stations and all that for phones
Eventually the library got sick of having so many people there and thought they were being abused that they reached out to Niantic and asked them to remove the  Poke Stops When my brother checked again he told the Poke Stops were back so Niantic probably put them there again once the hype died down.
Yeah that makes sense. half of provo ages 12-25 were there every night the river woods were petty mad as well I used to go there with some of my friends and catch pokemon I actually went on a few dates to catch pokemon
A lot of BYU students actually still play because Niantic put legendary pokemons into the game. There are these things called raids where a group of 10+ people are needed to defeat the legendary pokemon.
Thats cool. Back when i stoppepd people were just leveling up Eevee's and getting really high elvel Vaporeons because they were the strongest pokemon at the time I'm sure its a lot different now though
When my brother downloaded it he actually went to one of them and saw a group of 40 people playing. Honestly though that was probably the entire population of people that play in the city of Provo.
Haha if they wouldve implemented all that stuff quicker after they released the game they probably would have retained a lot more of their player base
He did say it was nice to meet new people in the community and get together to play a game. He got rid of it though because it got pretty boring after wards doing the same legendary raids one after another. Niantic switches out the legendaries every now and to keep things interesting but it's the same game over and over
Yeah that makes sense. You can only catch so many eevees before things start to get mundne
There's only so many legendary raids you can do before you get bored again.
Seriously Maybe its just because were adults now that were not as into as we used to be playing gameboy as a kid
My brother wished that Niantic would put a trading system into the game. Pokemon is a collecting game to get powerful pokemon and in the original games, trading was such a
I could play the pokemon campaigns over and over and never get bored as a kid but I'm not sure how much I could do that any more
huge part of the game
They should start a pokemon slave trade real money pokemon trading I could start slinging Pikachus on the dark web
Its cool to see how augmented reality is improving games. Not to mention virtual reality My brother works at BYU library and the section of the library of where he works at has a virtual reality machine It's more for educational purposes but every once it a while they get to play games. He's tried them before and the games are insane! They really pull you into the game and it's super captivating. There's a defend the tower type of game where you shoot arrows at figures that come to destroy the castle wall
I would start to play pokemon go again if they did a VR version can you imagine doing gym battles in VR
I think the high score for that game is like wave 24 and it's crazy fun
That and Skyrim and I would pretty much give up my life for VR
VR version of Pokemon Go would be insane! People would be all over that. They would play that until the next big thing.
They would be walking into each other and you know some 5 year old kid would get ran over by a truck or train or something chasing after a charizard Also there would be a lot of safety concerns with Real world VR meaning like you actually move around I think we have a long ways to go until we get to that point but there has to be a way to create a virtual HUD and overlay the pokemon or whatever game you're playing on top of the real world that you're seeing
Ohhh dang I can see the headlines now. As soon as the first first tragic thing would happen, the news would go crazy and things would shut down pretty dang fast Like they'd try to find ways to sue the company and all that Theres this place called the Void that does indoor VR games like halo and alien themed where you are doing a real FPS with prop guns and everything. They programmed the inside to have real walls and doors that mesh up exactly with whats in the game so when you reach to open a door inside of the Void there is a real physical door that you open. That would be so trippy. With that much actual real world input it would be hard to tell reality apart from the virtual world If they could make the headsets light enough like a pair of sunglasses that cover your whole field of vision you would get such an immersive experience I think that's where the future of VR is going. It will turn into AR or augmented reality where you just have useful information projected onto the real world I'm sure its gonna be really weird at first to get used too but eventually it will become more common place and less of a fad and then everyone will start using it as soon as things become affordable I remember watching this movie called surrogates back a few years back with Bruce Willis which was all about this concept of VR but instead you could project your consciousnes into a clone/robotic body of yourself. The reasoning behind it was to prevent bodily harm because while your out in the world working, playing, doing whatever, your real body is safe at home plugged into a machine. I suppose that AR could become so realistic that you could actually project bodily movements into a fake replica body But could the body trasmit real world sensations back to the host user
Yeah the age of machines is rising
That would require some serious brain wiring to replicate the feelings of touch and smell and all that. The AR headset would have to have access to parts of your brain and be able to simulate the types of brain waves that register certain smells, etc.
It's kind scary to think about how fast technology is growing and how we as humans are evolving
Or maybe the thought of being safe from real bodily harm would make it worth it to forego some sensations and feelings in exchange for a feeling of safety But the biggest flaw with the movie is that people could just break into your house and kill you while you sleep or whatever so the fact that a surrogate body saves you from bodily harm is kind of flawed in that regard. Unless you could like lock yourself in a hidden room with tons of locks to keep people out. Also would you need sleep in this surrogate body? Your real body is always at rest but your brain is active so you would probably still have to "logout" in order to rest your brain just like in real life. Also your real muscles would start to atrophy and wither away and your real body would start to become frail and you could possibly become a slave to your surrogate body unless you were very conscious about not slacking in taking care of the real you instead of just living inside of the surrogate you
i mean even thought here are some big questions with the story and some of the logic it still seems pretty good. it is not that uncommon for popular books and movies to have stuff in their stories that do not always make complete sense. but the writers realize that that is not what is always important to people. my friend is trying to learn how to write in korean. i am not sure why he thinks it will be fun to write in a language that he has no idea to understand. but it is pretty funny to watch him struggle and try and figure it out.
that is pretty funny. do you know what he is trying to writing down or is it just random stuff that has no meaning?
pretty sure it has no meaning
you know if he is actually trying to leanr korean a little bit i can understand that. it is a lot of fun learning another language. i learned another language on my mission. it was super hard but it was an awesome experience being able to talk to people that other wise would not be able to converse with you. people love that you are willing to learn their language just to be able to talk with them. they respect you a lot for that.
yeah i guess that is cool but he is just learning little dumb things and he wont ever use it but i guess it does not really matter. he is not hurting anyone. haha
yeah. no one will care that he wants to learn a little bit of their language.if anything they will think it is very cool that someone likes their language
Well now hes learning swear words. That kid is so immature Hes giggling like a little kid learning korean swear words
yeah maybe the other person shuold stop teaching him.
I feel like native speakers don't tend to teach that kind of stuff but people who served missions in other countries have no problem with it
or tell him some swear words that are actually different words. then when he tries to say bad things in korean he is actually just talking about bread. that would be pretty fu
Because it has no meaning to missionaries because they didn't grow up in the culture yeah That would be funny cause he wouldnt know the difference anyways
