Welcome to Leafninja.com! Your Naruto Information Source.

What you will find here: Our goal is to provide up to date Naruto news and a vast array of Naruto information. We hope to provide you with all this information without horribly spoiling you. We know there are viewers and Shonen Jump readers out there that would like to learn more about Naruto but not have their experience horribly ruined by all the big spoilers in the series. We hope to be able to provide you with the content in a safe manner but still provide exhaustive information on the subject if the reader desires. That is why we will provide "Quick-Spoiler" clickable areas that allow you to see expanded information on the person or topic.

What you won't find here: Unlike many Naruto sites, we will not be providing you with downloads of the episodes or the manga. The price that is involved in hosting such content is too prohibitive in the long run and the hosting of such content would open us to legal liability. However, we hope to provide summaries and information on all the episodes and manga and also provide you with a great community experience.

Good episode, bye bye Konan, you were my favorite!! TT_TT

Btw, loved the ending with Rock Lee doing a Hop Step Jump AKA the name of the first art contest that Kishimoto won at the age of 18.^^

@ Korss

In next week’s preview they show Tobi/Madara in a new mask/outfit/weapon. I like the way it looks animated.

“WTB Izanagi” means I would like to buy/own Izanagi.

know its stupid to point out irrelevant filler stupidity. But Jiraya hasn’t learned rasengan yet in that flashback. minato is still a kid. so the rasengan hasn’t been invented yet.

600 BILLION paper bombs! Konan has far surpassed Tenten’s Rising Dragon, she’s now the official Queen of Overkill! Unbelievable Tobi survived that!

@6 Small mistakes, no damage done in my oppinion. It was actually done quite well dispite it being out of place.
Even funnier than that; In the manga the artists once made the mistake of drawing Pain with a konoha headband^^

i wann noe who would win in a fight naruto or sasuke i think naruto cuz cuz hes too stacked atm naruto -sage jutsu tht gives him the power the lift basicaly a mountain wit super chakra reserves)rasenshuriken which cut so fast n on a cellular level n not even the sharigan cant count its stikes plus complete bijju mode which gives him almost unlimeted chakra n fast then the 4th hokage plus the sage jutsu makes him a senory type n the biju mode makes able to sence evil intent n the nine tales chakra heals any wound

@no point
No spoiler in this section. keep the manga talk in the manga section an preferably as one post or two no part it up. and your still a bit wrong go back 5 pages or so on the main page and read all the manga talks you will see a rather good title for a fight between them.

@no point
Sorry but the more I read this “ppl typing” and with no sort of any common typing skills, the more I fear for future generations.

But yes I read the Manga and I knew all of that but this is in the Anime title animation episode 253 not manga chapter 577. You should be able to see where you should discuss this.
I am not looking down on anything but using one thing for what it is not meant to be used for, It is meant to be used for discussing THIS topic what has bean revealed in the ANIME not anything. Answer what?

1 I was in a rush so my typin wasn’t the greatest n dats the point I’m tyrna get at I don’t think the should be anime section then a manga section jus for 1 anime thts y I can do wat I jus did n not get banned or revoked I think this site should jus be a 1 info site tht isint sectioned off into 2 parts so readers like me can ask question and get them answered without all this, hey instead of tryna prove a point y don’t u jus go ahead n answer it if u are a true fan instead of criticising someone elses mistakes we are only human so I guess u make them 2

Youths typing skills huh… well If you see up at the top it states number 1 information site for Naruto, few sites stay that way of being pure to one thing its nice to have one place you don`t have to shift trough a lot of things from other series.. Spoiler ruins things. Yeah I have forgot the better part of whats going to be in the next 5-10 episodes but that makes it so much more fun to see it animated. IF you want to ask questions, they actually have a forum
http://forum.leafninja.com/index/

But as I said there was a rather good phrase used to describe a fight between them.*sensing uneasy of doing anything for them self* “when Gods clash” or “When Titans collide” something like that.
PS. still missing some punctuation.
