    On the Jiraiya boy note, Yourichi does say Byakua Boy a number of times to tease Kuchiki.
    When man invented the bicycle he reached the peak of his attainments. Here was a machine of precision and balance for the convenience of man. And (unlike subsequent inventions for man's convenience) the more he used it, the fitter his body became. Here, for once, was a product of man's brain that was entirely beneficial to those who used it, and of no harm or irritation to others. Progress should have stopped when man invented the bicycle. ~Elizabeth West, Hovel in theHills

    Yeah. We get it. It's an honorary. We don't translate honoraries because they sound stupid in english. That's why any translator with any sense translates something like "Jiraiya-san" as "Mr. Jiraiya" or just Jiraiya and not "Jiraiya Older Guy".

    -san's the most generic Japanese honorific there is. It barely indicates any relationship between the speaker and the listener, besides that the speaker likely doesn't know the listener well enough to call them by a different honorific, if at all. It doesn't mean "older guy".

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    Pervy Sage sounded bad at first because it was different and sounds cheezy.

    As long as it gets the correct meaning across (which it does), it doesn't matter. I'm sure none of us need the subs to confirm what "Ero Sennin" means when we hear it. As long as the meaning is translated correctly then it's fine.

    I believe Abdula. I remember when I was a kid and read Garfield comics, whenever Jon would visit his farmer parents his dad called him Jon-boy. And I know I've heard that at least one other place on television also. I think one of those old western television shows like Bonanza.

    I just always assumed if you master the jutsu you dont need the seals. Cause the seals do what release something? Eventually youre so badass you release it with just your will....just... your...will.
