Naruto Chapter 700 summary.

" With the finale chapter finally here, I have conflicted emotions. I feel both happy and sad. The only thing I'm completely sure of is the gratitude I feel toward the readers. Thank you for supporting me until the end. Otsukaresama, believe it! "

- Masashi Kishimoto

While chapter 699 more focused on the transition of Sasuke Uchiha, chapter 700 focused around Naruto and the children of Naruto and his friends. As previously stated the chapter was produced in colour, first and foremost hopefully all naruto fans were grateful for this. As to produce a whole chapter in colour must have taken quite some time. 

I must first indicate that we didn't get no indication between how much time had passed since the fourth great ninja war in both chapters. Kakashi had also stepped down as the 6th hokage and was alongside his long time friend Might Guy, who is wheel chaired after heroics against Uchiha Madara in opening the 9th gate and battling him as an equal after he became the 10 tails Juubi and had the power of the sage of six paths.

If your looking for closure with previous events, you may be sadden as Kishimoto gives snaps of the previous Kage's who battled Madara together in the 4th great ninja war. The only one who looked the same Tsuande as she uses her Jutsu to make her appearance younger. It was extremely surprising to see Onoki still alive, i guess that was just for the fans. 

The chapter then focuses around the pairings of the surviving rookie 8 and ninja's of the surrounding villages who got together with the ninja of konoha. Kishimoto definitely wanted to surprise us with some of the pairings. 

Naruto ended up with Hinata which should be no surprise to Naruto fans, the chapter dedicated a lot of chapters to their son Bolt which in a few different sites was 'Baruto' for short. He resembled naruto while their daughter resembled Hinata both with the 6 cat scratches on their faces like there father. Kishimoto wanted to show how history repeats itself by making Bolt a trouble maker and painting the faces of the Hokages exactly like his father did back when he was around the same age. The reason a lot of Manga fans related to naruto was because of his struggle of being alone and neglected and having no one not even parents, would be far fetch to say we can all relate to the story but the similarity is being a manga fan you were sometimes neglected and left to be alone as it was consider to be 'un cool.'

Much praise can be given to this chapter but at the same time it has it fault's it failed to close events  and give explanations. Maybe if this chapter was posted as an epilogue of chapter 700 it would have been understandable, we got no explanation to how Naruto became Hokage, what happened to the sinister Orochimaru, where are the rest of the tailed beast and last but not least did Naruto take the Genin exam?

To my understanding there is a new series starting in the Spring of next year that could potentially fill in the gaps, they still had to be addressed in this review, there are negatives when you look at the character developments of Naruto and Sakura, part of there goal was to bring Sasuke back to the village which was hard to understand as he turned to a rogue murderer that tried to kill them any chance he got. Saying this Naruto's other goal was to become Hokage, i adored this moment while reading the chapter as a fan this is a pinnacle part of the story I longed wished to see after 10 years of reading Naruto.

Would like to thank Masashi Kishimoto for giving us 700 chapters of greatness. In the words of his protagonist 'believe it.'

Arkham Knight Preview: Release date 2 June 2015

Rock City is back with Arkham Knight and will be taking the gamer world by storm in 2015. Rock city were responsible for games such as Arkham City and Arkham Asylum. They did not do Arkham Origins that was by WB. The cinematic alone have fans purring over the excelled graphics and unbelievable game play, You may have trouble telling the difference between the cinematic cut scenes and the actual game play. Arkham Origins was hailed for the perfect combat system, fights against bosses such as Mr Freeze was hailed as one of the best boss fights in the Batman Arkham legacy.


Story Line
A year since Jokers death, Scarecrow has united villains and threatens to take down Gotham city along the likes with Twoface, Riddler and Penguin. It takes place in the future, conclusion to the Arkham series. He is now know as the Gotham Knight and wears a suit of armour, you see the suit interlocking in the trailers, he no longer has the leather suit he had in previous games.

Gameplay

Simple but varied combat has always been one of the Arkham series’ greatest assets, and the developers have retained the purity of the controls here rather than slipping into fiddly fighting combos.

That's not to say combat is completely unchanged. New moves include sneaky ‘Fear Takedowns’, which slow time so Batman can take out multiple enemies or hide before being seen, and the ability to disarm thugs and turn their weapons against them. For extra brutality, Batman will also be able to use the environment against enemies, giving you the chance to ram villains’ heads into vending machines or air-con units. Ouch.

Batman will also have a few new gadgets, together with enhanced versions of his existing kit. The new gadgets are still under warps, but there will definitely be a souped-up grapnel gun that'll allow you to make mid-air U-turns. The gliding mechanic is also getting an overhaul, so that Bats can glide for longer and do more while he is doing so.


As killer features go, the chance to drive the Batmobile is about as deadly as 10-mile asteroid hitting the Earth. It’s a real mean machine, a cross between a dragster and the tank-like vehicle of the Christopher Nolan films, capped off with steely metallic hubcaps and a flaming exhaust. It can drive itself, so you can call it to you at the press of a button, and there’s an ejector seat so you can leap out of it at high speed like a proper showoff.

Watching the bat mobile smash through walls, and lampposts through the street is truly astonishing. You may be surprised by the comparison of the likes if GTA games, the difference in graphics is like night and day and if you have not yet seen the trailer you should click here!!   

The Batmobile is also why only those with a PlayStation 4, Xbox One or powerful PC will be playing Arkham Knight: the visual details are so intricate that it demands 160MB of memory to display it. It’s enough to give an Xbox 360, with its total of 512MB of RAM, a seizure



Unless there’s an awful back-from-the-dead twist that we don’t know about, The Joker won’t be starring in Arkham 

Then there’s Arkham Knight himself, a new villain created specially for the game by DC Comics’ writer Geoff Johns and artist Jim Lee. All we know so far is that he looks like some kind of anti-Batman, but given that they named the game after him, we’d expect him to be something pretty special.

Release date, 02 June 2015!

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Anime?


After watching the movie, I do have to admit that the film fell short of expectations. The film didn't start of too badly with leading star 'Megan Fox' Who plays April O'neil, i was pessimistic about this at first but it did seem to work well. Stay tuned for an in depth video review on the movie….

What comes to thought its why not make a turtles Anime? the fan base must be big enough, lets hope it happens in the future as that is something I would really like to see…
