Well we know that Dan was Shizune's uncle, but not much more than that. I guess that sounds reasonable since Dan did state that his sister was killed. But we don't know for sure.

One thing I was wondering is about Akatsuki's meeting at the end of part 1.

They said they knew Orochimaru had the Sharingan(Sasuke), but they didnt say they knew that he had to prematurely switch bodies. This doesn't necesarrily mean that they didn't know, but it gives a reasonable belief that they might not have known.

Then they say that they only have 3 years left. I don't think the clarify what they mean by three years. I would assume that they mean three years left to kill Orochimaru, but when I watch and read it again it seems like theyre referring to something else besides Orochimaru. I dunno, it might just be my paranoia.

It could be both Orochimaru and something to do with Jiraiya. Or they could've been gathering other things to help.

Yea, i think thats kinda suspicious how Oro's body change and the Akatsuki saying they have 3 years left fall on the same year... I dunno

I'm fairly sure that the reason Akatsuki had 3 years left is a mystery to us. It could be related to Orochimaru, but if that's the case, they make it seem like he'll be completely invincible once he's in Sasuke's body.

If he will be, they must be really mad at Kisame and Itachi for not killing Sasuke when they had the chance.

until then, they didn't even know he had contact with orochimaru. as far as any of them knew, they didn't need to kill him. besides, itachi has plans for sasuke( whatever they may be), he needs him alive.

Um, I'm not sure if this has been asked, but I can't find it on this thread or anywhere for that matter. So here goes... Why was Naruto able to take the final exam three times or how did Naruto fail the final exams three times? This has been bothering me for quite some time now... Sorry if this was already asked :D

it has been asked, many times, to the point that n one is allowed to make a tread on it because its so simple.


naruto simply decided to take the exams in the past (and failed three attempts) before he passed them at the beginning of the seriese. people like sasuke, neji or shikamaru could have graduated years earlier than the rest of their class mates. they simply chose not to.

OMG, thank you so much! I feel enlightened! LOL! :D

Just one thing, though. Was that officialy answered or assumed?

Ok, here's a question... Why was my "Jinchuuriki-Bijuu Forms" thread in the manga section closed? Everytime I make a new thread (pretty much), it gets closed!

I wasn't the one that closed it, but all you really did was post what anyone already reading the manga knows.

Maybe because nobody knows? They might just be markings to identify himself.

I wasn't stating what we know. It was more of a question of perception, and by that I mean how they never really told us what Garaa's forms are, and in one of the video games, you can play as "Half Shukaku Gaara." So if that if considered half, what happened to the other forms? Also, I was trying to find out what other people had to say about Yugito's forms.

Also, why would it be closed for being something people already know when I made a thread based on filling OVA's, games, and Movies into the timeline? I put som uch work into typing all of that, too. :(

Okay, here's a couple of questions...
Why is Gaara's gourd of sand not seen in his flashbacks as a child? Was his mother used as a sacrifice to become the gourd of sand? You see, I've had trouble trying to understand Gaara's past for quite some time...

He didnt have the gourd until he bacame older.

I suppose when he became an official shinobi and was sent on missions, he acquired the gourd since it would be the safest/quickest way to keep sand around at all times.

All I know is that once Tsunade became Hokage she made Shikamaru Chuunin because of his performance in the Chuunin Exams

It was in episode 107 and chapter 172.

They have a little meeting/ceremony for him with jounin and chuunin attending it.

I closed it. Because like Nezz said, you are merely stating what people already know. They never really told us what Gaara's forms are because Kishimoto doesn't want to. Get over it. Furthermore, we have only seen Yugito for all of a few chapters. There isn't much substantial to be discussed and the thread will just rapidly become one where crazy theories and nonsense are thrown about.

The OVAs, games and movies DO NOT fit into the timeline. Not supposed to, never will.

Maybe posters should consider whether to spend so much time typing stuff that don't contribute.

Woah, easy, I was just asking, please don't attack me with your answers. :(

-Anyway, about the question on Gaara's gourd, if he did not have the gourd when he was little, then how did sand come rushing to his aid when he tried to hurt himself?
-Also, if he couldn't control the sand, then how did he get the ball for those children that landed on a roof?
-Second to last question- if the sand that came rushing to his aid was just sand around him, then wouldn't that mean that the gourd is not so special? After all, he calls his gourd of sand Mother, leading me to believe that she was used as a sacrifice to become the gourd of sand.
-Last question- How does all of that sand fit into his gourd? I am refering to the preliminary rounds of the Chuunin Exam, where he clearly uses a lot more sand than what can fit insie the gourd. Maybe the gourd connects to the demon somehow, and the sand is a part of the demon?

Attacking and telling it like it is are two different things. Sometimes people need to be told the truth straight and to the point or they don't listen.

Gaara could control any sand anywhere. He just used the gourd to transport it. The gourd itself is hardened sand. Gaara doesn't need that much sand to use affective techniques with them, so the amount in the gourd is suffcient. He refers to the sand in general as his mother since she was sacrificed to put Shukaku inside of him. He can make sand out of rocks and other material. He's had the power ever since they put Shukaku inside of him.

The sand,if you saw,was always around. And them being in Suna didn't hurt either.

He could control it to a point,it was his emotional state that made him out of control.

He doesn't call the gourd mother,he calls the Shukaku mother. Or rather,what he believes to be in the sand. The Gourd is so he can have sand all the time,and makes it alot less obvious there's something strange about him.

The gourd itself is also made of sand,but he can make sand from the ground beneath him. And if you watch,you can see the sand is connected with the ground almost the entire match.

lol. I beat you to the punch Elyon. Although the answers are basically the same.

Gaara controls all sand around him, plain and simple.
