Thread: Chapter 353

as far is the biju go, i think its like pool, the order doesnt matter, but you gotta get the 8 ball ( aka naruto) in last or you lose.

this chapter was just... good. i liked it alot for some reason, lots of explanation to further develop the plot. yes its weird but for some reason i dont need a manga to be a fight in every chapter.

lol at tobi and the anger bag, that one had me laighing for 10 mins straight!

I just checked Wiki. I know it's not always 100% solid, but it also says that Kyuubi is the only one left.
We have to reread the manga to check if it's true though (anyone volunteering?)

it stated in chapter 353, itachi and kisame just got the 4 tails. so they still have 5-9 to get? if they have to seal the bijou in order anyway. i can only remember deidara getting one tail(gaara), hidan gets the two tails in ch 312-313 and sasori never found his target (three tails?) before getting wtfpwnt by sakura and chiyo. im gonna re-read the chapters in a bit but i think they still need 5-9 tails.

reread alot of chapters and Tobi and deidara get the weak? three tails in 317-318. In 312-313 hidan gets the two tails. seems like they've yet to get the 5-9 tails imo. been awhile since i read those ch and its amazing how much i skimmed over or just plain forgot >.<

I think there is a odering mechanism that needs to be followed. Thats not to say that there is a strict order to befollowed, but that the bijuu inside the container should be able to cancel each other's power out or something to that extent. I think the container at max can hold one tail of net power. So they got 1tail first, then 2tails, since 1 tail nullifes one tail of the 2tail and makes the net 2 tails. Getting 3tails nullifes both 1 and 2tails when they work together. Putting 4 tails in would nullify 2tail and 3tail if it was aided by 1 tail (5 tails v 5 tails nullifying each other).

If you go by the eyes, then yes, it should be done after #4 (except for Naruto of course).

Now that we see 1-4 captured in that order though, I wouldn't rely on the eyes too much, especially since their positioning seems to be very random.

i think this was a so-so chapter. I dont know what to say to the ones who thought there was going to be fighting just because it took 2weeks for the chapters to come out.

I just wish i they let us see the Jiku fighting alot more to see what and who they are bout but eh thats just wishful thinking.

Predictions until fighting: more than 10 chapters before they actually meet? lol.

It was an alright chapter. Kishi had to do this little clean up chapter with Akatsuki. This chapter has shaken a lot of things up in the story. The best part of this chapter was Tobi. He's hilarious.

the chapter was alright... not worth two weeks wait but oh well... can't have it all I guess...

An interesting chapter.... And had solved a few of my unanswered mysteries that had been running in my mind for quite a while.
--------------------
Sorry for not quoting anybody, since many had came up with the their own ideas about the order of bijuus extracting/capturing.

But since I've read the manga in both languages, Japanese and English, I am quite aware that translations in English by 'mangahelpers' and a few other sites I've came across sometimes differs in meanings and conditions from Japs mangas, but still good enough that it didn't ruin any large part of any mangas.
What it did however, is starting a few confusions and a little bitty misunderstandings among readers. Or perhaps the translations was already good, but the readers themselves got confused.

And in the case of the bijuus, from the conversations between Itachi and Kisame, it was made obvious that - it is a must to do the sealings of bijuus in the tail order, starting from 1, 2, 3 and so on until the 8th and 9th.

But, the capturing of Jinchuuriki can be made in any order that they like, or depending on the situations; which means, if they got Naruto now, they can't seal his bijuu just yet, but would have to keep him 'alive', until the the 4,5,6,7, and 8-tailed was extracted first according to the said order. The same should apply for other Jinchuurikis as well.

And that also made it clear that so far, they only extracted 3 Bijuus, one recently captured, and the others are still to be found, and Naruto should be the last due to avoid conflicts that might arise if Konoha starts to gather all countries villages to fight them.

Or in short, if no one understood what I just said,
It doesn't matter the order of Jinchuurikis captured, but the sealings/extractions of Bijuus must be made in the correct order....

And that is all to it. Unless AL found another way to keep the seal stabilized when not doing the extractions in order. :P

But the EYES, yes 'the eyes',..... is still a mystery in relation to sealing the Bijuus. Perhaps it is there and its numbers are just for 'fun'...... Or perhaps not... Or maybe it is related to the number of Akatsukis, not the Bijuus, still doesn't sound right there however.....
Ahh, another unsolved mystery... And the differences between the anime and manga version made it even more puzzling.....

Correct me if i'm wrong.
The Akatsuki leader just said, that the nine-tails needs to be sealed last, not that the others have to be sealed in the correct order.
I rely on the statue's eyes since we see an eye appearing.
Chapter 331 page 12 shows an appearing eye after sealing the three-tailed.
After extracting the beast five eyes are shown.

Well, of course this is just a claim without proof.
