Since the storyline has given no answer, you'll just have to accept that Kishimoto hadn't made up the different shapes for Mangekyou yet. He didn't even name Tsukiyomi at that time either.

i been wondering why kakashi can't desactivated his 3-tomoe-sharingan and when he use his Mangekyou Sharingan vs deidara, kakashi could activate his MS and desactivated too but not a regular Sharigan ?

I don't think its ever been stated why, but my guess is that since the sharingan is not originally from his body, he doesn't have the bodily functions needed to be able to turn it off.

What exactly is a Sage in Japanese culture? What positions do they hold & what powers do they wield? How does this fit w/ Jiraiya?
Why did Asuma & Kurenai keep their relationship & then their marriage a secret?

PS In the anime, when the characters are running, why do they bent forward w/ their arms hanging back? Looks a bit odd.

A sage is a wise man. They hold no powers, they're just well-knowledged. Jiraiya's powers stem from the fact that he's been trained as a ninja, by an even greater ninja, with assistance from the toads.

No one. Kakashi invented Chidori and Raikiri.

It was never explained, but my quess would be that he summons them similar to how Madara does it to the Kyuubi.

sage's dont really have any powers but in the jap culture your suppose to respect them above all else, if they say something, you agree with it, i don't really know the japs respect system to go any further then that

asuma and kurenai were embarressed, thats why they didn't say anything (okay i don't actually know if thats true but i don't think the reason was stated yet) (this is specualtions)

and the characters run like that probably because it leaves their arms open to defend themselves from surprised attackes and saves their energy (but thats just me speculating on it) if you realize, they run normally for short distances (unless they are jumping from tree to tree) but they only run with their arms behind during long runs

it could also be like a plane (i'm using that as an example) how they cut thought the air, something like that anyways

and they never really said why they run like that so all of this is just speculations i have made and someone else could disagree with that if they want

My guess on the run is their arms are held in a position ready to draw their weapons.

I've seen anime characters running like that in other anime too. My guess, easier to animate.

Does anyone know anything about a character (other than Jiraiya) who has control over thier own hair? Someone I know once told me about a character (villain?) who was able to grow and control her hair. I would like to know, specifically, what episode this was in, and whether or not this 'jutsu' was a kekkei genkai.

Unless I'm mistaken, that was the Fuuma kunoichi in the Orochimaru's lair filler arc. If that's the character your friend is referencing, then she's not canon. No manga character has shown any kind of hair manipulation that I've seen.

my guess is that he probably sealed them in some place releasing then at his onw will but nothing has been confirmed about how shodai handled the beasts

It's not been said how he got the mangekyo sharingan, but my guess is, since his best friend died saving him, and gave him his sharingan , that he got some unique from of mangekyo sharingan. Because you have to kill your best friend to get the normal mangekyo sharingan, but since Kakashi's sharingan wasn't his own originally, his turned out a little bit different. That's my guess, anyway.

He developed Chidori/Raikiri on his own, its a jutsu he created by himself.

Dragon Ball and DBZ. They don't really have weapons so there really isn't a valid reason to run like that. Like I said, I just think it's easier to make them run like that, instead of animating their arms moving every time they take a step.

I'm sure I've seen it in other places as well, but I can't really remember where.

The Sharingan can't copy anything genetic. So long as there's no extra equipment needed, and as long as it's not genetic, there's no reason the Sharingan couldn't copy the technique.
