Kaneki Ken 1,516 Posted October 8, 2014 Shonen Jump released a raw scan of chapter 694 which is in FULL COLOR. It is in Japanese, but I have to admit. I like the simplicity of the coloring in this version than Colorkage's versions. Since these are official scans in full color, we can confirmed colors of certain attributes of the characters and the scenery of the battlefield. Again, they are in Japanese, but check em out anyways. It's a nice change of pace rather than the colorkage's intensive coloring. http://www.onemanga.me/Naruto_Chapter_List/694.5/1/ also, I found something interesting about episode 345. The gruesome battle scene near the end of the episode had some censorships. As I said before with Japan's TV broadcasting of TG, any instances of gore and nudity are censored. I knew something was missing in that episode, and this guy who made the thread about it on Narutobase talks about it since he has the DVD version of it. Check out this thread if you want to compare them. There's no video. Just some pictures. http://narutobase.net/forums/showthread.php?t=593443 Anyways, that's all I got to say for today. The colorkage version should be out tomorrow, and chapter 695 episode 381 to follow on Thursday. 1 Firaga reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kaneki Ken 1,516 Posted October 8, 2014 Aww great. I was just getting ready to leave for college. AAAAGH!!!! On the flipside, DEM COLOR PAGES!! 1 Firaga reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Firaga 5,947 Posted October 8, 2014 YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! THE FINAL BATTLE HAS FINALLY BEGUN! We got Bijuu Mode, we got Susanoo, we got Fire Style, we got Bijuu Bombs, we got Naruto and Sasuke colliding in a giant Kurama VS Susanoo punch followed with a huge explosion followed by the early mentioned Bijuu Bomb! This right here is how the battle should start. It even ended the same way the Part I fight ended with that explosion, but I sure don't think that's the end. We still have some chapters left to fill in more fights Also, to the one guy who thinks the series should end at 700: DON'T LOSE HOPE! The announcement that the manga will end in five weeks was officially released in Weekly Shonen Jump along with this chapter on Monday, so with that said, the five week thing might be five weeks from now instead of five weeks from chapter 694.

Aren't official SJ issues released on Monday? Therefore 694 + 5 = 699 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Firaga 5,947 Posted October 9, 2014 Aren't official SJ issues released on Monday? Therefore 694 + 5 = 699 ... Thanks for crushing my logic. But, actually, I can see a reason why it would end at 699. You see, if you order the numbers 6, 9, and 9 in a certain way, it looks like this: So yeah... Sharingan. Heh. 2 Kaneki Ken and Akatsuki reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kaneki Ken 1,516 Posted October 9, 2014 New scans relating to "The Last" have been released! The quality is poor right now, but we may see HQ scans when it's officially released on Monday. We have anime renders of the closups on Kakashi, Sai, Hinata, Sakura, Shikamaru, and Sasuke. Also, we see more renders of Naruto, and for the first time, anime renders of Sakura (Incoming Axel). Also, we haven't gotten any translation in the scans yet, but there is something special about Oct. 18. Hopefully, we get HQ renders on Monday when it officially releases. What do you think about the scans? 2 Firaga and Shulk reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MysticVriska 70 Posted October 9, 2014 This is quite a large topic we have here for Naruto. For all of my misgivings for the series as a whole, it's certainly been a blast to see through the story just the same, so many feels, and all of the glorious shipping. 1 Firaga reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Reyn 1,755 Posted October 10, 2014 Eh, still think it shouldve ended at 700, we barely have 5 issues to wrap everything up as it is(although Kishi will probably cheat with the FMA method and make the last chapter 100 something pages long). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Akatsuki 47 Posted October 10, 2014 (edited) Guys I'm pretty sure Naruto DOES end at 700. Translators on the net need time to get the chapter cleaned and edited, so I think we receive our chapters quite a while after. I read somewhere that 5 chapters remain. We'll just have to wait and see I guess ... And also HAPPY BIRTHDAY NARUTO! You've been a hero for so many and despite your Genin status, you are freaking epic. You'll be in a lot of hearts forever. And also, we must remember the deaths of both Minato and Kushina ;_; The most awesome parents who were willing to sacrifice everything. And who had amazing endurance, I mean, who else could survive so long with a giant claw in their guts?

Kaneki Ken 1,516 Posted October 16, 2014 Hey gais. Sources got their dates wrong for the ending of Naruto. It officially ends on Nov. 17th. Which means Spider is actually right. IT WILL END ON CHAPTER 700! Here's proof, and a badass colorscan. 2 Firaga and Reyn reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Firaga 5,947 Posted October 16, 2014 Thoughts on the chapter: YEEEEEAH, more action. A lot more action. We even got to see Naruto and Sasuke pull out some new techniques. This battle is not over, much to the chagrin of some people who thought it would because Naruto and Sasuke went into the white space thingamajigger last time we saw them going into this week's chapter at the beginning... but nooope, still going! Thought I can't help but think that either what we're seeing is either the climax of the fight, or we're a point where we're nearing the climax of the fight.

Thought I can't help but think that either what we're seeing is either the climax of the fight, or we're a point where we're nearing the climax of the fight. It looks like we are nearing the climax. Naruto finally decided to get serious. In fact, he's pissed off at Sasuke. In his eyes, this is NOT the fated battle Naruto wanted to have with Sasuke. It looked like it in our eyes, but Naruto just doesn't want to battle Sasuke in his current state. 2 Firaga and Reyn reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kaneki Ken 1,516 Posted October 18, 2014 New character sheets for "The Last!" In this Line-up, we have Ino, Shino, and Kiba joining the crew! Ino Ino's feminine features have been increased, esp. with her facial features. She no longer wears in a ponytail and drops her hair down. Her hair is nearly as long as Mei Terumi and Kushina Uzumaki. Shino The lonebug just got cooler and slick. He continues to wear the hood and his sunglasses, however, these sunglasses are sleek, modern-like and they cover the entire eye area, so good luck trying to see his eyes! Also, when he's not wearing a hood, he sports a bandana like Ibiki Morino. Basically, his cool factor got multiplied. Kiba If there is a award for "Most drastically changed appearance," I'm giving it to Kiba. His Wildman Features just got wilder. He now sports a Goatee, a slicked back hairstyle, and wild clothing. Hopefully, he will do something in the movie to compensate that idiotic bark at the moon. Strange that we don't see Akamaru in the sheet Here is another scan of Naruto and Sakura's anime version posing in a variety of positions. What do you gais think?
