#It's so funny because Asuma is the only safe option

[team7-headquarter]

The senseis of the Konoha 12 and what do they think about the families of their students :

( for my Genin Konoha 12 — Special Classes! au )

⠀⠀⠀

— Kurenai : She's not close to them but they are mostly fine. Except for the Hyuugas. She holds an active grudge against Hinata's dad for the way he has traumatized his daughters. Or in other words, he can go fuck himself, Hinata is an amazing kid. In Shino and Kiba's case, she sometimes go to talk. In Hinata's case, avoids them like the plague.

— Asuma : In good relation with all of them and actually enjoys talking with them about the kids. Best case scenario. He's like their uncle, being honest. Still he's amazed at how much they don't know about their children sometimes. Not that they are bad parents, but there's so much about their kids they don't understand...

— Gai : Passively sits to listen to Kurenai when she complains about the Hyuugas, which says a lot about his own opinion of them– you know it's serious when Maito Gai stays silent. Otherwise, he is Rock Lee's dad (for all that matters anyway) and Tenten never talks about her family, so he doesn't really care. Those are his kids. It's all that matters.

— Kakashi : Refuses to give his opinion, it's clear to everyone that's not a topic to be discussed with him. First, he won't get caught saying what he really thinks of Hiruzen after seeing where Naruto lives, (never has he ever been so enraged on the behalf of his sensei). Second, it does not take a genius to hate the way the Uchihas used to operate and treat their children. Third, he is still convincing himself there's nothing wrong with the Harunos. It's not working, so he opted to forget their existence, just like Sakura conveniently does.

#fuck the clan but protect the members #Best to worst case scenario : Asuma (3/3) - Kurenai (2/3) - Gai (1/3) - Kakashi (0/3) #I live for Kurenai and Kakashi hating the Hyuugas and the Uchihas clan policies #Also Gai— He says #It's so funny because Asuma is the only safe option #Anyway as soon ad the four of them start training the twelve of them things get serious because the good/bad lack ratio is 6-6 #6 kids with acceptable families and 6 kids who are pretty fucked up #They balance each other out don't worry #naruto #kurenai yuhi #asuma sarutobi #Maito Gai #Kakashi hatake #Team 7 #Team 8 #Team 9 #Team 10 #Konoha 12 #Konoha 11 #Rookie 9 #Genin Konoha 12 — Special Classes! au #naruto uzumaki #sakura haruno #Sasuke uchiha #Neji Hyuuga #Hinata Hyuuga #inoshikacho #Tenten #Rock lee #Shino aburame

Continuing the saga of “SE watches the Chuunin Exams/Naruto OG and gets steadily more confused by the plot holes”:

-Jiraiya. You show up for ONE SCENE, summon a big frog and ... that’s it? THAT’S IT? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? THE ANBU DID MORE THAN YOU AND THEY WERE NARRATOR STAND INS. And don’t tell me you had to fight the three headed snake thing that’s what the FROGS ARE FOR. LET THE FROGS DO THEIR JOB AND GO HELP YOUR SENSEI.

-Sarutobi, I blame the animators more than I blame you, but it took you like- five episodes after your heartfelt Hokage speech to ACTUALLY DIE. I am no longer sorry about you dying. Except when Konohamaru cried at the funeral. I did feel bad about that.

-Orochimaru how is it every time I think they can’t animate you any uglier, they somehow manage to do so. You’re supposed to be weird looking, but not CARTOON SAGGY my word man what is going on with your FACE when you get upset. That is not a normal expression, for humans OR snakes.

-I enjoyed the Gaara fight immensely, for several reasons:

1. Sasuke admitted that he cared about his team! Smol Emo Boi cares! He doesn’t want them to die! Now I’m miffed that Kishi decided to throw that development away so that Sakura and Naruto would have someone to chase after and whine about through 99% of Shippuden. Sasuke could have been so much better than that.

2. Sakura stood up to Gaara! Like yes, Kishi continues to refuse to let her be useful, BUT. Civilian twig girl took one look at this half-transformed MONSTER coming for her teammate and PUT HERSELF IN THE WAY. That takes SPINE.

3. Naruto henged the giant frog into the Kyuubi and I died quietly from laughter. Just- they TOWER over the forest, that would be seen for miles. I’m sure there’s more than one off screen ninja schmuck out there that spotted the Ichibi and was like “oh no” then, in the middle of fighting other schmuck ninja, they hear the ROAR and look that way again to see THE KYUUBI THAT SMASHED THEIR VILLAGE. RAMPAGING. RIGHT OVER THERE. There were probably so many heart attacks.

4. While I was more than tired of the whole “two old guys stand around trying to kill each other with a glowing sword and a shinigami knockoff” I DID enjoy watching Konoha casually kick the invasion out once the big players were out of the way and civilians evacuated. It also neatly answered my question of where all the Konoha ninja were if they weren’t fighting. They were keeping the villagers safe. Good Strat.

5. Gaara apologizing to his sibs kinda broke my feels. So did the fact they came back for him. Like- maybe fanfic has made me biased, but they COULD have just left him. He scares them, he’s threatened to kill them before, there was a failed invasion going down and everyone had to retreat. They had EVERY EXCUSE to just scoot and leave Gaara to the whims of fate but they came back for him. It’s sweet.

-Moving on past the Chuunin arc (FINALLY) and ... huh. It took what- a week tops for Akatsuki to move in and make a play for Naruto. Yikes.

-Also my reaction to Old Coots 1 and 2 telling Jiraiya they chose him as the next Hokage without his consent (or that they chose him at all) was basically just- *hysterical disbelieving laughter* because you antique MORONS. THIS IS JIRAIYA. HAVE YOU MET THIS GUY? HE WOULDN’T KNOW ‘RESPONSIBILITY’ IF IT CAME AND KICKED HIM HARD ENOUGH TO KEEP HIM FROM HAVING KIDS. HOW, IN AN ENTIRE VILLAGE OF NINJA, IS THIS YOUR BEST OPTION FOR HOKAGE. Oh my word I physically cringed and laughed through the entire scene because Jiraiya is so far from leadership/responsible material it’s only funny when the alternative is crying.

-Because come on. It’s TELLING when they just- folded to his idea to go get Tsunade instead. They would LITERALLY RATHER HAVE THE MIA DRUNK AS LEADER OVER JIRAIYA and yet they still nominated him. The stupid hurts.

-I just about had a heart attack when Sasuke walked up to Kakashi when Itachi and Kisame where RIGHT THERE. EATING DANGO.

-Kakashi how could you do that. Putting your student at risk like that. I know you didn’t know for sure it was Itachi but come on.

-Also Kurenai. KURENAI. I get that it’s been 13 years since anyone last saw an Uchiha that was tiny and brooding and 80% harmless but  C O M E  O N. Genjutsu? REALLY?

-Also Asuma please take the giant shark man and his giant shark sword more seriously you’re going to get hurt. Nope too late you got hurt.

-Kakashi why did you dispel the clone. If you had the clone then Itachi wouldn’t know for sure which one of you to hit with his death jutsus. Kakashi WHY.

-Gai you beautiful terror in green spandex thank you for having a braincell and getting Kakashi medical help and calling for Anbu backup before running in here. Like Kakashi SHOULD have done.

-Also Kurenai and Asuma. Be ashamed. MIGHT GAI had to be the Braincell in this situation. MIGHT GAI. The terror in green spandex with Youth™ coming out his ears.

-It was pretty fun seeing Gai kick Kisame in the face tho. Explains that one scene in Shippuuden too where Kisame kept trying to make Gai remember him and failing.
