I'm a japanese minor and always have a kanji dictionary at my sidde. Glad to be of help.

But, in all honesty, I'm glad that within a week, we shall see the fruits of this arc. Unless Kishimoto decides to be a bastard. Oh well, I still have enjoyed this arc a great deal, if mostly for it's character development.

Here's my hopes and dreams for the next part of naruto.

-Sasuke goes to Orochimaru and learns to USE the damn Curse Seal. It really doesn't do him much good if he can't use it like Kimimaro was able to up until his last breath.
-If there is a time jump, make it nice and short; a few months at best. We want Orochimaru on the back burner for a while, and alot can happen in the three years while he waits to transfer to Sasuke.
-Other members of Akatsuki. I couldn't care less about Itachi and Kisame. I want to see the other six.
-Characters that need bringing back into the picture: ALL three rookie females (you may disagree with me, but I happen to like all three as characters,) and Kakashi.
-Also, I pray that, no matter how contrived the plot device is, that Neji and Chouji are alive. Neji is still in a redemption phase in my eyes, but I don't hate him as much as I used to, and Chouji only JUST became cool. Both need even more development in my eyes, and they can't develop if they're dead.
