Hidan is immortal so it not in his instints to avoid direct attacks. Like what Shikamaru done by goin head on. I don't think they showed all their abilitis yet as they were going for nine-tails.

I like Hidan's character. Always bumbling around making mistakes and leaving himself vulnerable. It's embarrassing, but ultimately it's not like he really cares. He just wants to experience some pain.

I agree, Hidan's character is rather amusing. He is comical, yet not idiotic.Originally Posted by AssertnFailure
Can someone remind me please, because I don't feel like looking back through the manga to find it, is Shika a Jounin yet or is he still a Chuunin?
These last few chapters have been pretty good. I think that has largely to do with the fact that Naruto has not been in them.
Im pretty sure hes chuunin. I think neji was the only one promoted to jounin from the rookies. Speaking of neji, i'd like to see him again. and rock lee as well. I wanna see how much they're improved during this time.
I dont think thats the case. Atleast not entirely. I agree that he doesnt just use any old heart but i dont think they belong to his former partners. The akatsuki has big plans and each member as a specific job from what we've seen so its unlikely they'd let kakuzu keep killing every partner he got just to make himself stringer. He is a bounty hunter of sorts, so it stands to reason that the hearts belong to various shinobi hes hunted up till now. Besides, its unlikely that his past 4 partners just happened to to have an affinity towards different elementsI don't think that Kazuku uses just any ninja heart to make his own, i'm still standing behined the theory that those masks are his former partners
Nope. Shika is a jounin. Shika, Temari, Neji, and Kankuro were all promoted.
I'm with Assassin on this one. Kakuzu said that he would use the Konoha ninja's spirits to replenish his stock; why would he lie to them? This indicates that he has a habit of using the ghosts of his vanquished foes.Originally Posted by Assassin
Hidan isn't very strong when you think about it. He keeps getting caught in traps and Kakuzu has to bail him out. When you're invulnerable though you don't need to think about things too hard. On the other hand, he did manage to take out Asuma, the only Akatsuki kill of a Konoha jounin ninja (shown in the manga), so he's not that weak. I just wish Kishi would show off more of his skills.
I see Shikamaru jumping a few notches up in the next character poll. He's gotten really strong, and much more is expected from him from this fight. Good chapter, and can't wait to see what Kakashi plans to do next.

Yes I can see him jumping way up in popularity.
I thought Shika was a chuunin last time I checked,but he might be a jounin now.
I agree on wanting Kishi to show more skills of him,but honestly with Kakuzu as his partner a guy that cool and powerful,I wouldn't really care.
One a side note:Correct me if I'm wrong,but if each of Kakuzu's abilities was stolen,and the Lion controls the fire, then why did the bull have the fire attack in this chapter?My theory is that he has each mask give him 2 elemental abilities.
I like how he uses other people's attacks and abilities and steals them after they're long gone from his doing.
Theory:along this whole talking about stealing peoples abilities.Does anyone think that Kakuzu, or Itachi would be able to be taken over to be able to take other's abilites?
complete control?
