A little late due to a slow load, but the fuck Orochimaru?!

Well, this music video is already making me uncomfortable.

Looks like we're in that weird part of Toonami again.

Orochimaru should have just killed them right then & there.

Would have prevented a shit ton of suffering.

You know a situation is fucked up when Orochimaru murdering children can be considered a positive decision. [lol] I can't see it actually preventing it, though. A lot of suffering would have happened regardless of them. They weren't the root of things.

And thank you! That damn video is over!

Kishimoto does love the Two Guys and a Girl trope, doesn't he?

@ slim: I'm with Prime here. Killing the kids might have prevented some events later down the road, but the endgame would likely be the same so long as Madara is driving the machine.

@ Beary: Yes, yes he does.

Are these three kids important to the plot? I heard the name Nagato on this series before, but I can't quite remember what he was doing.

Long story short, yes. They're connected to Akatsuki in the present day, and two of them are currently members. Technically speaking, all three of them are, since one of them is more or less controlling the corpse of another as a puppet.

@Roji Very important, given who they grow up to be: Akatsuki founders.

Also, they were seriously surprised when Orochimaru turned out to be a serial killer? [lol]

To be fair, it's really Zetsu who's pulling the strings.

Also, it's Nagato Uzumaki.

@ Prime: To be fair, it's not unheard of for people in real life to be shocked to learn and be in denial of (or even willfully blind to) the fact that their loved ones have become serial killers and other types of criminals, even when the signs are right there.

@ Gojira: Well, yeah, but that's a much, much later plot twist. One that a lot of the fanbase wants to forget.

Oh I know. But on the other hand, Orochimaru was so Obviously Evil that it's such a "Really?" to me when anybody reacts with shock.

He was supposed to have been a sweet kid before his parents died, though it's telling that he was born looking like that.

Basically, Orochimaru underwent some major Motive Decay regarding his reasons for learning all the world's jutsus, and his old comrades held out hope in vain that they could still be allies until Orochimaru made it quite clear he's one of the few people in the setting immune to The Power of Friendship.

Is there a trope for when you get gear from a dead baddie?

And on that note, I bid you all good night! See you next week!
