Naruto 472 - Best Described As A “Laugh Out Loud” Moment November 19

Show Spoiler for Naruto Chapter 472 ▼
While I’m a bit disappointed that the Kisame/Bee fight basically came down to a chakra suckfest (with a shark trying to drown an octopus), I was pretty amused by the fact that Samehada chose delicious-tasting jinchuuriki chakra over loyalty to Kisame. Queue annoyed owner’s football punt above. I don’t approve of animal cruelty in the slightest, but I just saw that whole scene as a pet dog taking a liking to someone else, causing the owner to kick his own dog out of disgust. It was almost like, “Alright go get him! Wait, why the hell are you licking his feet!?” Kisame may have won the fight, but that was some pretty good self-ownage by his sword.
Aside from that, I couldn’t help but laugh at the descriptive diagrams explaining how Kisame’s huge bubble of water moves with him and how leading him in the opposite direction would allow Punta and Sabu-chan to escape. It’s at moments like these that Naruto really comes off as a shounen manga, making me imagine the eyes of young kids just lighting up when they read that part. I can’t help but picture a light bulb instantly switching on in their heads along with the thought, 「ああ、なるほどね。」 “Ah, I see.” What didn’t sit so well with me is how drowning is still an issue here. I mean, the ninjas in this world have unreal control of chakra and can stick to surfaces, walk on water, clone themselves, throw balls of pure energy, create huge pools of floating water, turn into huge monsters, and a whole lot more, but they can’t for the life of them generate a pocket of air with some oxygen in it. Sorry to say, but my suspension of disbelief just breaks down there. -_-;
Yeah yeah, I know it’s just a manga, but that doesn’t mean I can’t poke fun at it!

Hmmm…can`t wait to see Killerbee use Samehada, cause I don`t think that swords down just yet. And, as usual, the star of the manga is nowhere to be seen….
And yes. I do wanna see Killerbee and Nartuo meet. Thy might become best buds, like what happened to Gaara.
XD

The sword is actually alive!?!
Now that is hilarious! A great and silly weakness to a overkill weapon. I hope it kills Kisame because I’ve been cheering for Killerbee the whole time. When the sword betrayed him the whole thing sounded like a romance drama.
“You’re leaving me….for him?”
“Sorry Kisame. He satisfies me in ways you never could.”

So the reason Suigetsu and Guy were not about to wield Samehada wasn’t because Samehada was bound to Kisame. They just didn’t have a large enough chakra supply in order to satisfy Samehada.

Killer Bee is simply awesome I’m still hoping he wins this fight. And the whole twist with Samehada switching sides was a nice surprise. I don’t think anyone’s seen that coming.

Kisame win the fight and his sword betray him >.>
I hope at the end of this arc, Kisame is still alive, it would be lame to kill him now

FOOTBALL!!! its a field goal lol, I hope killer bee dies just because he can control the 8-tail and if meets naruto then Naruto might be friends with 9 -tails and then Naruto can be another rational character in the manga. I like berserk 9-tails

That water cannot float at midair, so why not Bee swimming upward?

Don’t forget Bee turns into a giant bull octopus . . . You’d think the octopus part in all of it’s mighty demi god like power would be able to sustain it’s host in the 8 tail’s element. Wait didn’t Killberbee hide as a tentacle for god who knows how long in the water(chap 419)?

Punta and Sabu are from the Samurai clan, not the ninja clan, right? And I think the chakra thing only works when you’re not getting swamped by stronger chakra anyways.

Hmm… Octopus bull shark?
