mofoslotmachine Juuyonbi_No_Peko_=3 mofoslotmachine I can't see any of the younger generation characters dying, honestly. The older guys are at the ones at the most risk: Tsunade is, Gai is, Kurenai is, etc. Someone like Lee isn't going to die, just because it wouldn't make much sense-- Lee has a lot to prove, and it's kind of difficult to do that if you're dead. Itachi is someone who's pretty much guaranteed to die. He could go out in a number of ways, but he clearly is going to. He massacred a whole clan; he's in line for some serious karma. A lot of people think Sasuke will die, but I don't see it. It's mentioned a lot that team seven are similar to the sannin, but different in important ways. All of team seven are heavily invested and refuse to let Sasuke go, and that's going to play a big part. If Sasuke doesn't get redeemed, I'll be incredibly surprised. Orochimaru will die, too. crying And, of course, all of Akatsuki are going to bite it sooner or later. I wonder if Sasuke would've mercy on the last second...you know, like Itachi did with him D=. Akatsuki ish gonna be the last to bite the dust...Orochi has high chances of getting killed by Sasuke, or at least some serious beat-up. Sasuke ISNT gonna redeem himself until the last second...like, ''X'' (for not saying Itachi or Orochi) person is about to stab Naruto, and Sasuke gets in the way. Akatsuki will probably get killed before Orochimaru. Then Naruto can go bringin' Sasuke back, and not worry about the kyuubi being stolen. biggrin I think Akatsuki is FAR stronger than Orochi, if they wanted, they could just find Orochi and kill him, probably Itachi should've handled that before, since now Sasuke would get in the way. Naruto should be hiding right now...especially since Itachi and Kisame might be heading to Konoha to pick him, somehow I feel that the ''Kazengan'' (yes, kazengan, kaze/wind + rasengan, nice huh? =D) won't be enough even for Kisame. talking about Bijuus...isnt it weird that only three bijuus/jinchuurikis remain uncaught? it seems to me that Naruto would make a three-man-cell to fight Akatsuki or something like that =O.

I don't think there's any question that combined, Akatsuki could kick Orochimaru's a** in theory (at the very least they'd have power in numbers), but I have a feeling that they'll die first simply because except for Itachi they're not carrying any, uh, story-baggage. Orochimaru has ties to Konoha and was important early in the story, whereas Akatsuki (again, minus Itachi) was kind of tossed in there to be The Bad Guys.

EVERYONE IN AKATSUKI HAS THEIR STORIES! you just have to wait till they're revealed, like Tobi's story or Zetsu's

Juuyonbi_No_Peko_=3 EVERYONE IN AKATSUKI HAS THEIR STORIES! you just have to wait till they're revealed, like Tobi's story or Zetsu's Well, yeah, but I mean ties to the actual, overarching story. Like, for instance, Sasori had a story...that got revealed right before he kicked it. Nothing grounded him to the major plot except that he was in Akatsuki, which contains Itachi.

The Akatsuki don't have personal ties with Konoha (except Itachi), whereas Orochimaru has plenty. They all have stories, but a lot of the time a villain's personal stories are only revealed just before death (Sasori, Zabuza and Haku, Zaku, Kimimaro, etc.).

But it wouldn't make sense to reveal a character this late on with personal ties to Konoha. Most of the main players in the storyline have already been revealed, and it wouldn't make much sense for more to be introduced. Akatsuki are obviously going to die, because they threaten Naruto's existence and Naruto is the hero. What would be the point of pasting on Konoha backstory for generic villains? neutral

The only way I could see more Konoha players being introduced via Akatsuki background is if it's being built out of what we already have. For example, if Toby really were to turn out to be Obito. We already have backstory there, and it'll have major repercussions for some of our prime players. That, at least, would add something to the story and wouldn't come out of no where. But some totally new, unrealted Konoha history would seem compleatly lame.

All I know is that Akatsuki aint gonna go down that easily...they're taking someone with them, if they already took Asuma, what can stop them from taking Kakashi? or even the whole team?

The fact that the entire plot revolves around team seven? xp I see what you mean, though: more people are likely to die because of Akatsuki. The other Jounin are most at risk, I reckon.

Juuyonbi_No_Peko_=3 not only Jounins, theres a long list of people they can take down, but if Team Kakashi can taker down those two, then they have at least a chance against them...of course, going after Itachi would be suicide XDDD No. There's actually a limit as to how many people can die. Not mention who can die. As much as I'd love to see a proper bloodfest, it's just not possible: Kishimoto is restrained by marketing. What do you think will happen if, say, Kakashi dies? There's a huge chunk of people who love him. Of he goes, Kishimoto risks loosing those readers. It's always possible, of course, that he'd do it anyways. Or that Kakashi bites it near the end of the series in the Climactic Battle. But for him to die now, in a two-bit little fight? Very doubtful. I would like to see one of the Ino-Shika-Cho team die, if only because it would hammer home that, yes, things are a hell of a lot more dangerous now, and that they can't think themselves imune, no matter what the plan. But will it happen? Eh. . . hard to say.

I doubt it would happen, since they just lost Asuma, but if it did, that would be the end of the team for a bit anyway.

Though a lot of people think that Shikamaru will follow Asuma's footsteps so closely that he too will die. I don't believe this because Shikamaru has unfinished business. Asuma did too, but not in the same way.
