Yup, great chapter. Kumokage is such a badass :D Watching 124 right now, I can't wait to see some Pain action :p

There is a thing that troubles me about Naruto : Danzo has chosen Fu and Torune as his bodyguards (don't recall hearing about them before), so they must be quite strong. Then why didn't they participate in the great battles against Aakatsuki (Kizame, Itachi, Deidara, Sasori, Hidan, Kakuzu) ? It's like the only ninjas in Konoha are those we met in the chuunin exam.

They are black ops, so they deal with secret missions and intelligence gathering. Also when the 3rd kazekage was attacked I believe the one trying to save him was these black ops.

If they're being controled by Danzo he wouldn't want them to help out. Because he wanted them attack Konoha so he could take over. Like with Sai, at first he was only there because Danzo wanted someone to watch over Naruto and convey messages to Orochimaru, who he was hoping would attack/destroy Konoha too.

I was just going thru the episodes list of some of the anime I watch, and found out 2 of them One Piece (12 years :o ) and Naruto (almost 10 years) thier manga has been around for more than a decade.

Does anyone else know of any manga or anime still ongoing for that long. I'm trying to find if there are any.

so i finished watching NGE and i have no effin clue what is going on past episode 24.

in episode 24.... shinji kills the guy, who apparently is an 'angel', then shinji crys about it a bunch, then i have no *(#@&$@$_@($ing clue what is going on after that.

something about how he imagined it all...or it was just a different world that he was picturing himself in or some BS...

im sitting here going "o good, shinji finally did something, two more episodes for the to explain what the **** has been going on"

THEN an hour of shinji being a giant tool and having more flash backs and garbage, and nothing gets explained.

whats so great about NGE?!?!

I warned you, didn't I? This is what happens when an amazing producer doesn't know what a "conclusion" means. The ridiculous references to Christianity and emo squealing all makes one of the most influential anime series ever made into some kind of sick joke about suicide and rebirth of the world.

There's nothing "great" about NGE except that it restarted the anime genre. It went from a boring, Gundam, drama universe into "real" characters that do not follow the idealistic "boy becomes powerful and feels responsible for protecting the whole word" Gundam character to characters to the complete opposite. Shinji's incessant wailing, his rage... It all is part of one of the worst anime conclusions ever made.

Do you want to know how NGE ruined one of my all time favorite anime, Kare Kano? The producer decided to use the same format as NGE in the last 6 episodes of Kare Kano and completely ruined it before quitting after having a dispute with the mangaka for the pathetic flashbacks and completely awful attempt at trying to be artistic.

If you want to cleanse your mind and follow up with a better remake of NGE, then go with RahXephon. You will not be disappointed (it's one of my favorite) since it has a fantastic story.

Hadn't heard of the live action movies. Gotta link?

I can't disclose it or I'll be warned. PM me if you want to know about the site.

This is what I was trying to warn you about :laugh:

The show is just bad, I really don't get it's appeal it all. But as I said, not very many people share my opinion on NGE. The OVA's and movies don't make it any better, either. They're just more of the same convoluted...annoying characters and all. And messed up too. I'll explain further if you require. :huh:

      You can disable all non needed features from Brave. There is also Brave Origin which removes them entirely and it is free for Linux.

      I wish I could use Brave but the tab suspension feature is horrible. It doesn't suspend them like Edge does. Even after 2h open with 70+ tabs (same as Edge), it has 2GB more consumption than Edge for no reason.

      I will never use a crypto browser from a shady company because it has a built in adblocker. I am not that desperate and I do care about the ethics of the browser I use. So a Firefox based browser or Adguard is the way to go. I mean the app, not the MV3 extension combined with Adguard assistant extension for controlling everything directly in my browser. I prefer using a firefox based browser or paying 10 bucks for a lifetime license of Adguard than ending up using shady crypto browsers for an adblocker.
