would also explain why kakashi looked high during their first c-rank ...and made such...questionable decisions
so i'm rewatching the sasuke retrieval arc, which i LOVED when i was a middle schooler--i watched so many angsty amvs about the squad fightin through the pain on the rewatch i think kiba's fight is my favorite? like, lil dog boy has a piss-based strategy. incredible. incredible!! sakon gets peed on TWICE. can't come back from that.
There are some real characterization decisions made in this and I'm not sure I disagree with any of them
It might just be age order. Temari is the oldest, Kankuro is the middlest, and Gaara is the sweet baby brother.
Hey Y'all, are you bored and looking for some shitty ninja content to cry over? Well I've found just the comic for you! It's a look at kakashi and the lovely time he had growing up from the ages 5-6, aka when he got royally screwed over by a fucked wartime system! It's really good. Like, really really good. The best worst part is that it's unfinished on a cliffhanger and I'm dying. Last updated in July I believe. CW for so many things, big ones are lots and lots of suicide ideation and child neglect/abuse. I literally found myself mentally screaming "he's only five! Please, he's only five!"

God, I came across a quiz on Tumblr called "how your past self died", and I got tuberculosis. In the little description area all it said was "like itachi :)" and I honestly haven't been startled into laughter like that in ages
Starting to jokeship Gaara/Lee because with gaara's nonexistent eyebrows and Lee's overabundance of eyebrows they make one normal set of brows But in reality I just like the idea of them. Is it at all canon? Hell no. Do I love it? Completely
