girls are smiling at their phones, watching naruto ultimate ninja storm 2 sasori vs sakura boss fight HD remastered

#nonitxt #she is trying to feel something. anything. #my literal first exposure to this fight... you dont understand this is a core memory

[chiyobaasama]

events i believe would have objectively improved the world building of naruto

the uchiha successfully complete their coup and purge the dissidents (itachi) on their way becoming a junta

the sand village never recieves the cooperation offer from orochimaru and decides to overthrow their monarch instead, instead replacing him with a loyal puppet ruler

yahiko sticks around long enough to discover maoism and turns the og akatsuki into a guerilla fighting force

obito still gets his paid for hire goons (the akatsuki we meet in the show) but they take far longer to accomplish their goals and frequently beef with the og akatsuki to get access to nagato & his rinnegan

kiri revolt against the brainwashed mizukage but fail to form a successful government so now kiri is basically a lawless no man's land with several factions ruling territory each

iwa continues to tolerate deidara's anarchist terror operations as deidara never gets recruited into obito's group

kumo claims to not harbor any criminals but frequently is involved in coups so they have an excuse for their bloated military budget

orochimaru's head on a spike after a prison revolt

the peasantry ultimately decides the ninja villages and their daimyos are useless at protecting their lands so they get starved into submission after a brief civil war period

naruto but kishimoto reads at least two books on how war the military and feudalism in east asia actually worked irl

#nonitxt #dont mind me this is me rewriting naruto in a way only i would like

I know you won't reply to that, I just want to say something. I'm hurt. I guess you're on Gaza's side. Even though Hamas aren't the only monsters who hurt my people. Those "innocent people" rape , hit and torment my people. I don't care that monster lost her eye! Most of them want to kill us, And YOU either. They hate us more, but they hate you too. I liked your drawing so much, But now I'm just sad. Don't do that again, please- and I'll keep appreciate your work, because sasosaku are the best!

Aside from the fact that South Africa is sueing Israel for crimes against humanity at the Hague with receipts that include Israel's own admissions: Do you not realise how evil it sounds to look at the bombardment and blockade of a civilian population, half of whom aren't even 18, in the internationally recognized world's largest open air prison, and say that they deserve to die due to a group last voted for in 2006, a year half of the current Gazan population wasn't even born at? Do you think it's fair to bomb hospitals and block water and food supply? Do you think think it's fair to displace 85% of a civilian population? Do you believe it's fair that Israel is currently responsible for the largest share of child casualties? Do you believe that, ignoring everything that happened after October 7th, it's okay for Israel to be the only country in the world that systematically prosecutes between 500 and 700 children each year in military courts lacking fundamental fair trial rights? Those children are the people you call monsters? Do you hear yourself?

I am from Eastern Europe. The wars and consequent economic shock therapies Western Europe and the US have provoked and encouraged there for the past 30 years have displaced and killed more people than I'd like to count. People I met, People I'm related to even. Yet unlike you, I do not believe the children of those countries deserve to the punished for the crimes of a dozen corrupt, imperialist, racist, bloodthirsty leaders and their military henchmen. And I heavily encourage you to find that same empathy in your heart.

#nonitxt #insane fucking take #given that even liberal zionist outlets in israel are condemning this violence against CHILDREN

"why would they give the kazekage post to gaara when sasori is right there"

sasori every year he's suggested:

#nonitxt #based same age au #he was also asked if he wanted to serve under the daimyo and he openly asked if it was a hit job #most patriotic sunan citizen clearly #they know his village is at fault for getting his parents killed lbr #they should be glad he's not leaving or getting anyone else killed #council members screaming and crying. begging him to do the bare minimum #its what having a tiny pool of elite talent will do to you

Please, stop talking about Israel and Gaza. This is not the place for it. both of you can do this on other places on Google. Just don't speak about this topic at all. Remove what you wrote here if you can (I don't if that's possible, but it would be good to do so), and also remove what you shared that someone else wrote. As I said, it's not the right place to talk about it.

I don't know what's worse: You saying I'm not allowed to feel bad for a fellow artist in a war zone with increasingly more terrible survival options (that my EU tax payer money is contributing to) or the follow up to my last response where the person doubled down on their rhetoric by saying Palestinian children need to be smothered in the crib because they will grow up to be dangerous monsters, something that was also systematically happening to my slavic ancestors at the hands of the Nazis during WW2, a response so appaling and disgusting I decided not to publish it. Am I just a content creator to you and not a person? Is fandom escapism all you people fucking care about?

Anyways, here you can find a comprehensive post on what's been happening for the past 75 years and here and here are some on the ground organisations for you to donate to.

#nonitxt #'this is not the place' i am offline organising to stop weapons shipments to that evil country #which is more than than i was able to do for my ukrainian relatives who werent allowed to leave the country #i share one post and you people fucking get triggered immediately #demanding someone to not care is insane #no one is free until palestinians are free

given that i actually literally had no (zero) time for sos month this year it's truly amazing how i still managed to struggle post thru 2/3 of it. strip comics and multiple entries for single days included, small things to be proud of... if i ever decide to prep on this much on a time crunch again you are welcome to come into my home and beat me with a pick axe btw

#nonitxt #kept the event on the server this year bc i usually do most of the modding #and i was geniunely afraid i would have to disappear randomly #bc i was very on and off and did most pieces in advance #i hope you guys on here liked at least one entry T_T #my desire to not let my sos shippers down is like raw fuel #thank you to the people esp who still made an effort to participate on the server T_T you guys were super motivating #also the voted prompts were so much fun like geniunely #like i said earlier im planning on finishing two more of them sometime at the beginning of next year

happy birthday to sakura's astrology cousin (me)

#nonitxt #its midnight already #my first year not in quarantine slay #aries squad represent #<3

[aprito]

both sasori and sakura got their incredibly tacky names because their parents glanced at their respective calendars real quick and i think thats very funny

#nonitxt #sos have season related names so much in common <3 #the twins are named serious first son and leo to continue this incredibly lazy naming convention

[aprito]

first kazekage: we need more people we dont have enough people

second kazekage: ok lets ban people from leaving

third kazekage: no lets ban them for not having kids

fourth kazekage: no its the gays in this village that are the problem

gaara: i think we should just be nice

(BONUS) temari: i think we should try to build a real economy here actually

#nonitxt #suna being floptopia by my fav lore aspect #neocon nightmare for 85% of it's existence #i am a (shadow) kazekage temari truther btw

[aprito]

here you go anon <3 this is my usual go to process because im extremely strapped for time these days and thus always have to figure out the Fastest and preferably Best Looking Way to create content

some comparisons as well

as for brushes and programs i mainly use clip studio paint and HiBisoft brush for sketches/lineart/shading and whatever square soft opaque brush is available for painting

#my art #nonitxt #idk if this is what you wanted anon sry #the lesson of the story is you can suck at art like me but if you do it often enough you can still become passable #shading is the worst aspect for me i really should sit down and sign up for practise or smth #also lets remember i went on a near 3 year art break and still managed to improve somewhat. So Can You!! #but if you compare my art from 2020 to today there's a big improvement regardless #my envy are some soft painterly art styles they look so nice...maybe ill be quick enough at Draw to manage that someday

(English is not my first language, so I apologize if what I say is not very understandable).

It left me thinking what you said about some people only being interested in your account to escape reality through fandom.

Have they even stopped to think that the canonical history of the fandom they follow is full of wars, and children used to kill?Aren't we all worshiping Sasori, who lost his parents in the war and then became an active participant himself, being just a child?

Are they so oblivious to the fact that these characters made us see the gray of a world full of death and violence, that they cannot realize that all these stories are a representation of the real behavior of our humanity?

Don't delete anything, please say everything you feel necessary to say. These people have me in shock.

Naruto's ""darker"" themes has always been an analysis of how inherently evil militarism, feudalism, hyper nationalism and exposing literal children to the horrors of war and death can be and how these systems enabling these horrors shouldn't exist. It's not black and white like you said, but there are beliefs that will always be red flags to me. Take the Uchiha massacre for example, which would be the closest comparison we can make to current events.

Unfortunately, partly due to Kishimoto's shitty centrist writing and due to how predispositioned and pre-propagandized the audience is, all of these conclusions can get glossed over and lost. How many in this fandom defended Konoha's violent pursuit of Sasuke for the longest time? Saying that he wasn't allowed to deal with Itachi, and then reprimanding him for turning his hatred towards the village? Worse, how many fawn over characters like Obito, Shisui, and especially Itachi - who had no qualms about endangering their clan and ultimatively agreeing that none of them deserved to oppose their oppressors and live? Konoha, not just Danzo, in turn had kept up a heavily propagandized image of the Uchiha due to their own personal hatred and beliefs. In Danzo's case, an excuse to get access to their organs for personal profit. Worse, they (Itachi, Shisui) didn't bother being honest with their own people, ultimatively not allowing them to escape or fight back. Contrast this against the hatred for Fugaku, who not once decided to act on his own and correctly pointed out that they have been ostracised and dehumanised for things they didn't do and feared it would get worse. Sound familiar? People are correct when they call the Uchiha massacre a genocide because that's what it was, but those are the people who actually drew from real life examples to criticially engage with the material.

Analysing real world struggle and applying that analysis to the narrative is the reason I continously empathize that Sasori's hatred for Suna shouldn't be glossed over for cushy high ranking positions because he just so happens to be talented. It's integral to his character and his actions, and it's a valid hatred to have. I honestly wish Kishimoto would have a fraction of enthusiasm for exposing the systems of oppressions as Oda has (a lot of conflicts in One Piece heavily, I mean HEAVILY, draw from the Cuban Revolution), because Naruto as a story would be far better off and probably would have more to say.

This also means, of course, that I recommend the audience to engage with this subject, and not fall for the propaganda of their oppressors <3 Palestine: A Socialist Introduction is currently free as an ebook for a start.

#nonitxt #meta #sort of #escapism and genocide apologism? in my ninja show? more likely than you think #dont worry about your english its great!! english isnt my first language either!! #nothing gets me more mad than people thinking their beliefs exist in a vacuum #stop reading just fiction start picking up non fiction as well!!! look around you and speak up!!! #i have to admit tho 90% of my reading is literally just non fiction with some fiction sprinkled in #in an ideal world bort wouldnt exist as a concept because the mercenary ninja villages employing child soldiers were dissolved
