in the convo between oro and kabuto (the scene with the spider and butterflies) where kabuto was talking about tsunade starting the idea of having a medical specialist in squads, both AA and the manga have different responses for oro, although both of them seem to make sense

in AA's release oro says...
"The countless wars brought about many advances. They were made possible by the many sacrifices. When a person loses something, he is able to realize the importance. And what created one of the legendary Sannin, who has been praised as a medical specialist, were the sacrifices."

in the manga, oro says...
"Hmm...that might be a good system even for veteran fighters. But such a system would only increase the casualties of war. It's human nature that people wont realize the true value of something unless they lose it. And whoever told the story of the medical specialist who's from the group of 3 legendary ninjas...BECAME THE VICTIMS OF THAT NINJA"

I don't get the manga version, having medics increases the casualty rate? Also whats with people that tell storys of Tsunade becoming her victim? I think that the Anime's text makes more sense unless there is something we just don't know yet I guess...

i think it makes sense. He's saying that if there are less casualties, then wars would become longer and increasingly violent, because the sacrifices wouldnt be as evident.

I don't know, but I had a different take on it. In the AA version Oro talks about wartime medical advances created by sacrifices (like ninjas sacrificing their lives for their village). Then he talks about not realizing the importance of something until it is lost (I assume he's talking about the arms, legs, etc lost by ninjas in the war but is thinking about his own arms). Then he talks about Tsunade's specialty coming from the sacrifices.

IMO he is talking about transplantation, where one person regains something they have lost as a result of someone else's sacrifice (death), and he is hoping to force or pursuade Tsunade to transplant someone else's arms onto his shoulders... The manga translation is a little more sinister and may refer to using enemies as unwilling donors.

I could be totally off, but I would bet money that Tsunade is responsible for Kakashi's sharingan.

Very nice, I never even saw this but it sounds solid to me.

It makes sense, after all Tsunade is a medical specialist. But we will still have to wait to know how Kakashi got it.
