#when amaterasu hits her juugo just goes ''well she's fucked the rest of us should go right now bye karin''

[evilkitten3]

so i'm at my mom's and i decide to round up all the naruto volumes we have in the house (currently i've found 37, 45, 50, 51, 53, 54, 56, 58, and 60) bc that's where my brain is these days and i flipped through 'em a bit and like.

ok so in volume 53 (the birth of naruto) there's a flashback to the kyuubi attack and a bunch of people dying. we see naruto's parents (mostly kushina) monologue to him pre-kicking it, we see iruka's parents giving their lives for him, and then there's kurenai's dad.

"you're a girl so make sure you live long enough to give me grandkids" bro i hope the kyuubi got you and i hope it hurt

#naruto #we never see him again like. ever #i think he showed up in one of the databooks or something and that's why we know his name but. dude wtf #iruka's parents: it's a parent's duty to sacrifice their lives for their child #naruto's parents: we love you so much #kurenai's dad: make sure u live long enough to get knocked up #like i know it's meant to be referring to the fact that she was pregnant in canon at that point but like #the scene is set up in a way that implies that he's gonna die and that's the only thing we see him say to his daughter #what the hell man #also it's really sad that sasuke goes from genuinely caring about his teammates in vol 45 to what happens in vol 51 #like both times with karin specifically #when amaterasu hits her juugo just goes ''well she's fucked the rest of us should go right now bye karin'' #meanwhile sasuke cares so hard he figures out how to stop the fire that's whole thing is not being stoppable #then when danzou grabs her he's just. nah girl ur too slow fuck u #i mean i know a lot's been going on but yeesh man #like he saves her at least once (maybe twice? not super clear) in vol 50 #so. idk maybe seeing danzou's arm pushed him over the edge #naruto shippuden
