This was just stupid. I know it's a setup because the reader would think it's Kabuto attacking when in reality it's Jiraiya, but it doesn't make any sense. Why the hell would you ever throw a kunai at someone when you want to catch their attention, especially when you're drugged and may miss? Why the hell don't you just say, "Wait Shizune!" like Jiraiya's doing right afterward?

Twelve years later, I still remember the line "did it not penetrate deep enough because of her fat breasts?" verbatim.

I always thought Gamanatsu was cuter than Gamakichi, which is why I was disappointed that Gamakichi was usually the one to appear.

I thought Kishimoto would go somewhere with this, that Tsunade would keep using this move and eventually die prematurely, but she survived to the end of the series.

I never got this. Tsunade and later Sakura's strength isn't derived from muscle, but in reality it's chakra that has a high burst and destroys whatever the fist comes into contact with. Hence they shouldn't be able to physically pick up a large item like that, just push or explode it.

And so it begins.

You are so, so wrong Kakashi.

How the hell did Rock Lee ever pass the Ninja Academy? If Naruto couldn't because he couldn't produce a henge, why could Lee?
