OMG! Naruto news flash!

[kemonomichi.livejournal.com]

Apparently it is confirmed that the fillers will end at ep183. There will be a week off followed by a one-hour special for eps184-185, which will be the Kakashi Gaiden! YAY!
Then, another week off and ep186 is the official start of part 2.



They're changing Naruto's seiyu. Takeuchi Junko will no longer be voicing our beloved Naru-chan!

*cries*

I guess they're changing to give Naruto a more mature voice... I hope the new va will sound good. It's going to be so weird....



Thanks to Pazuzu for the info!!!!

OMG THANK YOU....

Please tell me that this isn't April's fool. D: (Someone fooled me already by saying that One Piece anime will be aired in Finland and SUBBED x_x)

[kemonomichi.livejournal.com]

Oh God...I hadn't thought about that...if it is, he got me too.

That would be too cruel, ne?

[rosettaxv.livejournal.com]

Subbed anime in Finland = no way. The best we can hope for is Swedish dubs, and that's not saying a whole lot. :P
Well, nothing could be worse than those first dubbed Digimon-episodes a few years back...

But still, yey @ Kakashi Gaiden! (And I hope this is true.)

[ninja-demongirl.livejournal.com]

I was kinda hoping itll be like an OAV or something like that

[ninja-demongirl.livejournal.com]

PS- the naruto voice change does sound a little fake tho for today. Ill cry if its true

[kemonomichi.livejournal.com]

Might as well air on tv...they dragged the fillers for so long to gain more distance from the manga. It would be stupid to make us go through all those fillers and then NOT show the Gaiden.

[noishe.livejournal.com]

Akira Ishida?

...

Can we say "April Fool's"?

[kemonomichi.livejournal.com]

I'm not Saying Ishida will voice him. Apparently the new va is still unknown.

[pausedsilence.livejournal.com]

w-wait, does that mean Akira Ishida will be the voice of the new Naruto? doesn't he already play Gaara o_o?

[kemonomichi.livejournal.com]

yeah...I was just saying they won't change HIM, because Akira-sama can sound a lot older if he wants ^^

[demonoflight.livejournal.com]

I'm not going to believe him for once since-- dude, it's APRIL FREAKIN' FOOLS. I'm not believing any huge big super news on April Fools.

[kemonomichi.livejournal.com]

Yeah...I know...but since it was posted like that I tought I'd share. The part about the end of the fillers and the Gaiden sound true tho ^^;;

[cthulhu-cult.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it's a joke.

Damn people for noticing the date! XD

[kemonomichi.livejournal.com]

ARRRGGHHHH! Hidoi!!

[kemonomichi.livejournal.com]

I don't know..it looks like the whole thing is a joke, sadly.

Damn me and my gullible-ness! T___T

[lezbonojutsu.livejournal.com]

Waah. I hope they play Kakashi Gaiden, but if Takeuchi Junko isnt Naruto's voice anymore...

Then Ill cry T___T

[ilabb.livejournal.com]

Happy april fool's day to you too ;D

[kemonomichi.livejournal.com]

Yeah I know...I'm so naive, dammit!

[aruja.livejournal.com]

so its the VA change thats fake? or is it the Kakashi Gaiden thing...? or is it both...? o_0;;;;

[kemonomichi.livejournal.com]

Looks like it's both... TT___TT

[shounenhero.livejournal.com]

omg that scared the crap outta me. I think I might stop watching the anime if Junko-chan stopped doing Naruto's voice.

[kemonomichi.livejournal.com]

^^;; Gomen ne! I was just getting up and looking around and found this. I was too dazed to even remember it was april's fools...

>.

[nikki-wright.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry, but even if it WAS an April Fool's day joke.. I really think they WOULD change Naruto's voice when he became older.

I mean, boys.. help me out here. Your voice when you were 12 was NOT the same when you were 15, right? It would make a lot of sense that Naruto's voice be different, and if Takeuchi can't pull off a deeper voice, then they will end up replacing her. She may be 12 year old Naruto, but there's a chance she won't be able to be older-Naruto.

And if they do replace her, they'll more than likely get someone who sounds just like Naruto, but with a deeper voice. I doubt people will have noticed, or they'd end up saying "Wow, she's talented to be able to pull off a voice that's lower."

Anyway. I'd love to know more about the credited source. Is Pazuzu a livejournal user? If so, they must make a lot of friends-locked entriesThey haven't posted in 67 weeks. And their interests do not involve Naruto.

I've tried sarching "Pazuzu" on the internet but you get a lot of articles about wherever "Pazuzu" originates.

Give us more information on the source, please. A link would be lovely. I'd love to see how credible this is.

[nikki-wright.livejournal.com]

So I just saw the link in one of the above comments. Good, the source wasn't credible.

Though, what a stupid joke. :x

I still stand by what I said about the voice acting thing, though.

[atsuka-chan.livejournal.com]

Gah... I HATE APRIL FOOLS! I HATE IT! XD I have only dreamed of this XD *Puts on a hat that says "Gullible like Whoa..."*

[kemonomichi.livejournal.com]

Same here! I get fooled every year! *sobs*

[tryxkittie.livejournal.com]

Ya, I should've known it was an AF joke. Still, I want to see my Yondy-sama animated *cries a single tear*

[kemonomichi.livejournal.com]

Me too! they dragged the fillers for so long, they better make the Gaiden or I swear I'll go crazy! XP

[kumiriko.livejournal.com]

I'm going to say it. I dont care that it is april first. Dosnt automatically make every single story that comes out today fake.

I am going to go with this as being the truth till it is proved otherwise.

[kemonomichi.livejournal.com]

Well, the person who posted the info confirmed it was a joke. T__T

[cutemew.livejournal.com]

Wh-wh-whaaaat?!

*cries*

[cutemew.livejournal.com]

Oh.. Oh my god

I was scared out of my mind...

@_@

[musingmiyu.livejournal.com]

I so totally didn't notice the date.

[setos-puppy.livejournal.com]

WHAAAA! KAKASHI GAIDEEEEEEEEEENNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!! *Squees and bounces*
