It's cause the way he portrays female ninja leaves a lot to be desired. Throughout all of Naruto, females have been largely shown as second place, and when he does focus on them they usually end up not doing much anyway before being cast aside.

IIRC, there have only been 2 times that a female in Naruto has done anything important/significant to the plot, and that was when Sakura and Chiyo killed Sasori (And right after Sasori died, Chiyo died right after and Sakura went back to doing nothing like in Part I), and when Kushina went through a crazy amount of pain to make sure that Naruto lived (Which she then died afterwards).

Kishimoto might actually surprise people and have Konan actually oneup Madara, but given his track record with the women in his story, it's highly unlikely.

I was never a fan of Kisame, but I admit he did have a great death. Won't really be missing him though.

I hope Konan gives Tobi a run for his money. It would be great if she took the rinnegan eyes and had them planted in her, but it's very apparent she did not....unless she has to activate them. Doubt it though.

Would be a great time for Jiraiya to make his grand re-appearance and jump in to help Konan. dead Maybe it's time I just give up and accept the fact that he is dead. sad

^ and what is that supposed to mean? Superman v Batman would be an amazing fight. Strength v. strategy.

Anyway, I don't really see Konan doing much in this fight (we might just see the end). But, at least we know that Kabuto isn't using Nagato's body...must be the Fourth or something.

Actually, Kabuto doesn't resurrect the actual corpse, he uses a random body to make it look like that person. The link below explains the jutsu in further detail.

Yeah. That person. Along with that jutsu
could be the sage of six paths
If you read far enough down, you may get an indication of who That Person is.

Oh yeah, and Konan's gonna die without landing more than 2-3 hits on Madara. Hell, knowing Kishimoto, she'll most likely won't land any hits on him.


You speak the truth.

Damn, killing off one of the only pretty females (in my opinion) in this entire manga. Sux. If Konan dies, then the Rain team will officially be the most tragic team in the entire manga. Probably would've been better if Jiraya had never trained them at all and took them to an orphanage instead, with the way things are going.

Quote from WatermelonGhost
yea shes too hot to die....
hate it when they kill off beautiful woman in any stories....


Naruto does seem to lack strong female lead characters, much like Dragonball, which Kishimoto mentioned was influential to his art

All the comments really reflect my thoughts, the only thing that I don't get, is how can you rule out Konan so easily. Yes, i get that Madara is ALL Powerful and all, but you can be surprised, and also, If I'm mistaken, why did He call her Nagato, or was I just not understanding the context, or was it monologue. Also, Did Kishimoto set this up as a scene before a death, or a battle. I doubt it's a battle, because of the Narration context, but I'd be cool I wonder what Konan's real power is.


i was also completely confused by that confused
