Description Also inspired by chapter #616, to the point of some ranting

Come to think of it, all these misfits have no one waiting for them home, not even a place to call home* - and thus it's just sheer all-absorbing loneliness dwelling in the place where others are designed to have a heart.
I just feel this is the real answer that isn't allowed to show up from underneath the sweet villain talks Kishimoto provided for them.
Let alone I can't [refuse to] believe in Kishimoto's one-sided interpretation of Orochimaru as a synthetic villain

Having recently watched Shippuuden episodes 257-260 I find them extremely important. Even though they're entirely built on S1 animation, it's a refreshing and a VERY timely addition to the War arc. In fact, it brings the so much needed depth to Sasuke's character and helps to re-evaluate his persona We probably won't see anything so psychological regarding Orochimaru's reasonings... But a girl can dream

* - home is not a place; but a person. They still have to realize it.

I can't even start to describe how gorgeous their expressions are. Along with so many feelings one couldn't count, I can see the deepest concentration and knowledge in Orochimaru's eyes: and I'm sure Juugo and Sui can see it as well, judging from their questioning and expecting eyes.

P.S.: two girls dreaming are better than one.

Who; if not you; my dear; would understand me to THIS extent?

Thank you; thank you; thank you for your comments - they mean a world to me (especially seeing how you have less time for DA now ) - also because you so easily get all the underlying meanings as they are
It's very precious for me to know we're sharing the same thoughts and feelings here.

Orochi is definitely the synonym for 'knowledge'

p.s. DAMN YEAH dreaming together is more productive

You draw Oro-sama better than Kishi does. It would have been fun for these four to have some boys-night-out adventures, but it's time for serious business now. So sad that Sasuke is the only one that has people who care about him that he can return to, and I fear that Kabuto will not see Oro-sama again.

Don't say that!! Don't!!!
(Though you're probably right, and it's the main reason I don't even want to think about it right now... )

Incredibly intense artwork. I love the concept and the expressions each character has. Especially love how Suigetsu and Jūgo seemed huddled together almost, and how Sasuke seems to be trying to hold a 'cold' facade while Orochimaru, though still young looking in appearance seems to wear his age through his expression. Great job. Another instant fave

So you're a Orochimaru fan? I love how you presented him here, really there is too few people making art of him. I really love Orochimaru, and a fact is that he's my favorite Naruto character.. I mean c'mon how can you not love the creepy bastard with the all too good looks XD

This is quite beautiful, what tools did you draw make this with?

Не знаю, куда они пошли, но Орочимару, надеюсь, свершит или расскажет что-нибудь интересное. В своем репертуаре.
По поводу самой работы... Орочимару и Саске выглядят серьезными. Дзюго и Суйгецу в непонятках. Но это нормально. Они ведь не понимают, куда их и с какой целью, собственно, ведут.
Потрясающе. Жду новых работ, Джесс)

It's really sad piece. Honestly I was so happy seeing Sasuke in the last chapter that I haven't even thought about Orochimaru beeing in Konoha. True they are back in this sad place both wating to destroy it and I'm starting to think why Kishi decided to revive Oro. And what they gonna do now. I think that after all Obito thing I kinda forgot about all Orochimarus evilnes. (Maybe I just started to like him xD)
I love your arts. You have your own unique style and all of your pieces have some hidden message. So thanks for this one

Welcome to the dead club; then!

The more I think about our lovely Orochi; the sadder his fate seems to me every other time I try to figure out his next moves


Because Sasuke, the truly magnificent bastard; he has Naruto to kick some sense into him (and Kurama to add the fluff, literally ); and Sakura and further on;

Juugo and Suigetsu seem to find strength in each other after all they've been together; and I believe (if dat Kishi isn't forgetting about her once again! ) Karin is going to meet up with them fairly soon (I don't remember how exactly far she's run away from her captors; whether she's gotten outside of Konoha or not); and whatever else Kishi might store for them (I'm 100% sure someone from Taka is going to end up dead) - they still have each other.


Orochi, technically; has the forever and ever loyal Kabs (and after I was seduced with the idea of Kabby being the child of Orochi and Nonou - I kinda feel too many family-like bonds between those two ) - but I have certain doubts our fair mangaka will ever let them meet again


So yeah; dead.
I really hope otherwise...

Your art style is cool...it's not copying Kishimoto, but it still looks like the characters you're trying to portray. You make an excellent point about villains. As someone who LOVES snakes, I found it really disappointing that the Snake Dude was pure evil.

I'm also seriously annoyed at how one-dimensional Kishi seems determined to make a bunch of characters. This is a good picture, and I like the thought behind it.
