Do you notice a pattern??

Something I noticed was how many characters who worked under Danzo all are…similar in a way. I’m talking about physical attributes and abilities, and personalities. How all of them were quiet, soft spoken, yet observant and smart,and had lots of potential. How all of them had a fair, effeminate complexion, and were youthful shinobi. It’s quite literally watching history rhyme itself, it’s…scary. I may be reaching, but the way this is all aligned makes Danzo as a whole even more predatory and disturbing. Thoughts?? 🤷‍♀️ (EDIT FEB 2026: THIS IS ALL JUST INTERPRETATION)

10 things I would have liked instead of Boruto (this is NOT a dissing post!)

If you like Boruto, well, good for you? I simply couldn’t care less about it personally. However, there are things that I did totally care about, and I’m quite sad and disappointed they’re most likely never going to happen.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

1. Madara’s missing siblings

This is something I’ve always felt unfair. We got to know all four Senju brothers both by face and name (even if they’re just a leaf in the whole forest), but not the five Uchiha siblings. I’m not even asking for much, just give me a single panel of them with a name and I’d already be glad enough.

I was so iffed by this, that I named them myself in my Uchiha clan tree, following the common convention of naming all five siblings after the Northern Shinshu range. By the way, mothers would have been appreciated too…

2. Uzushio's lore

For being the home of one of the most influential clans in the series, we were only fed a few crumbs. Lore states it was destroyed, but barely anything is known about this village (my joke theory of it).

3. Sakumo Hatake’s mission

It’s difficult to believe how popular this character is for the very little we know of him. Yes, he’s Kakashi’s father, a supposed hero of Konoha until he fell in disgrace and offed himself.

That’s all, literally ALL we know! Which is not near enough. I keep hopelessly hoping that some day Kishimoto might write another anniversary oneshot for Sakumo, like he did for Minato.

4. Jinchuriki background

Ok, at least this one I’m sure many fans will agree with. Out of the nine jinchuriki, we only got decent story for 1/3 of them (Naruto, Gaara and Killer Bee). That leaves 6 people with nothing! Look, I’m not saying they have to be as fleshed out as the very protagonist… but c’mon, can’t you really give me anything?

This is one of the times that I deeply thank Studio Pierrot for at least bringing us the Utakata’s filler arc, and making Fuu showing up in the second chuunin exams.

5. The new Three-Deadlock

Sigh, so much for trying to sell us Team 7 as the new sannin… In reality? Meh, not so much. Listen, I’m partial to Sasuke but I totally love Sakura, and I think they should have been given sage mode too. In fact, I never understood why Tsunade and Orochimaru never got it.

6. Hashirama’s and Mito’s family

Self-explanatory. Who the heck were HashiMito children/Tsunade’s parents? O_O

7. Kirigakure's bloody story

We don’t know how, why or when it began. Some theories attribute it to Yagura, but others appoint it to the third mizukage, whom we don’t even know the name of, less his personality.

If you're interested, I fan-named him here, along many other Naruto characters.

8. Origins of Hidan and Kakuzu

They are the only two akatsuki we don’t know how they ended up like that. It is said that Kakuzu was a Taki-nin that stole a forbidden jutsu and defected, but we don’t really know anything about his life aside that. Hidan is the same case.

9. The downfall of Konoha’s counselors

Those two crawling maggots, those two hypocritical cockroaches, those stinky rotten corrupted… yeah, you know who I’m talking about for sure, even without names. Danzou had it coming, but those two never got the karma fix they deserved! Ò_Ó

10. Legendary battles that we never saw happen

This soon will get a future post itself, so stay tuned! XD

EDIT: it's already done!

[hi-ma-wa-rii]

This PISSES ME OFF so much. Why is Sakura even in this poll??? Why is Sakura an option next to Hiruzen and Rasa??? Why the fuck is Sakura an option next to DANZÔ??? And why did so many people vote for her???

Hiruzen is hated by many people (including me lol) because of the way he treated Naruto (letting him be treated like shit by the village, letting him live alone in a small appartment as a little boy, hiding his parents' identity from him, keeping his parents' belongings from him, hiding the truth about the nine tails from him...), because he allowed all that shit with the Hyūga to happen (why in the world was the seal thing even legal?), because he let the Uchiha massacre happen and because he literally tore Kushina away from her home and her country to make her a jinchūriki, to make her a weapon. Pretty serious things.

Rasa is hated because he made his own son a jinchūriki and then treated him like shit. He never gave him any love or affection, he let everyone treat him like shit, he treated him like a weapon and then he tried to KILL him. To KILL his own SON. He purposefully made Gaara's life horrible to see if that helped him control Shukaku and when it didn't work, he tried to murder him. Not to mention he literally sacrificed his own wife for the sake of military power and allied himself with Orochimaru to attack Konoha - a questionable choice, to say the least, regardless of what you think of Konoha.

Danzô... Do I even need to talk about it? ROOT, the Uchiha massacre, the stolen sharingan, the years of manipulation in the shadows to become Hokage, Orochimaru, the attempt to take over the Shinobi Alliance with Shisui's Sharingan... It's hard to find such an asshole.

And Sakura... What did she do, exactly? What did she do to deserve to be an option? What did she do to be put next to Hiruzen, Rasa and Danzô? What did she do for so many people to vote for her and to hate her more than they hate a guy who let an orphan live alone and be bullied by everyone, a guy who tried to kill his son, and a guy who ordered the massacre of an entire clan???

Sakura's only crime is that she doesn't like Naruto back, and people literally cannot handle this. She's not in love with the male main character who's in love with her so she's horrible. How dare a female character refuse to date the hero????

Her being in that poll is insane, it makes me really angry.

I'm sorry but that's just misogyny.

Sakura you're the best, they could never make me hate you <3

[historia-is-a-cool-name]

I've been thinking about Danzou lately (for fanfiction purposes, of course) especially, young Danzou and how he's the only member of the Shimura clan that we know of...

Or is he?

Shimura-born! Kotetsu headcanons below:

The x scar on the chin is a Shimura clan thing that everyone recieves when they come of age/become genin at the ripe age of roughly 11. That's what Kotetsu's patch is hiding.

"But Historia, that patch is too small for that" shut up, I'm here to have fun, not to be correct.

But as we know Kotetsu goes by the surname Hagane. (Which I think is double funny because both hagane (鋼) and ko (鋼) can mean steel, with tetsu (鉄) meaning iron. To me this just strengthens the idea that he had come up with a new surname and his best idea was to use his name again with a different spelling/pronunciation.) But this has to mean that he no longer identifies with his Shimura roots.

So comes the question: why is he not Shimura anymore? I've got two theories.

1) (this is the boring one): Kotetsu was told what Danzou and the root has been up to. It was kind of an open secret in the clan that Danzou supported the Hokage from the shadows and did the dirty work for him, but once Kotetsu realized the scale of the operation and how bas it was, he decided to break off. But even after leaving, he didn’t feel like he could speak about it both because Danzou wasn't above making him or his loved ones "disappear" and because his word as a chuunin meant barely anything next to those of the Hokage's close friend.

2) (this one is for the fanfic girlies): He was shut off from the clan after his relationship with Izumo came to light. We don't know about the legality of homosexuality in Konoha, but he doesn't have to go against the law to have a shitty family to kick him out anyway.

I also like to think about the things that this would imply. What's the relationship between Kotetsu and Danzou? Are they distant relatives, uncle and nephew or maybe even grandpa and grandchild/father and son? What effects did Danzou have on Kotetsu's life and vice versa? A scenario I'd like to imagine is that Kotetsu's next in line for clan leadership after Danzou, so his family has to come crawling back to him after Danzou's death.

Please share your ideas with me, I think this has so much potential

[akatsukillme]

the most unexpected for me was finding that the third hokage and danzo had their own old man yaoi going on.

but since CHILDHOOD.

so hold up - if i’m piecing this correctly - all of hiruzen’s horrid fucking decision making (regarding naruto, the uchiha clan, so many crimes gone unseen) was all because of his gay ass love for DANZO? and he couldn’t deny HIM?????

this is making me reconsider how i have viewed the entire show. what the Fuck.

all of naruto is just a big doomed yaoi bullshit (from hashirama and madara to ofc the modern day naruto and sasuke)

HOT TAKE:

Barring his shitty treatment of the Naruto situation (Which was terrible, horrible abhorrent) and leaving Sasuke alone in the Uchiha compound. I think Hiruzen was one of the most moral and okay Hokage. His real problem was his inability to see what a dangerous and amoral piece of shit Danzo was.

I mean, he wanted to Talk it out with the Uchiha, Danzo overrode his orders, he kept the barriers open for Itachi to visit Sasuke whenever he'd be worried.

He realised it was time to step down as hokage and DID step down when he had to.

And he didn't want the Hokage hat after Minato died, he assumed it because it was the most suitable decision.

He also saw Tenzo in a shitty situation in ANBU NE (Root/Foundation) and got him out as soon as it was brought to his attention.

He doesn't look down on people, of any background and he wanted to stop Orochimaru's experiments even though they would have immensely benefitted the Leaf had they succeeded.
