A Little Game of GUESS WHO

[athelice.livejournal.com]

Now we all know Sasuke looks like his dear dead mommy (which isn't a bad thing, considering how pretty she was), even more so after the time jump. So here's how this works, there are some images of Mikoto and Sasuke thrown in here. All you have to do is guess who's who!










Oh man, it's hilarious to see people getting mixed up about the two XD

My question is, is Kishimoto just being lazy with the character design, or is there something deeper behind it?

edited: most of you got it right! Yay!

It's unbelievable how hard that is...I don't think I got most of them right.

[athelice.livejournal.com]

Don't worry. I had to double check my "answer sheet" to make sure too! And...you've some some mixed ups. XD

...why is this harder than it should be?! @.x

I still can't believe that people insist that he looks exactly like Itachi. They need new eyes, for sure.

[athelice.livejournal.com]

And I can't believe that people insist he looks more like his father in the time skip. He is a clone of his mother.

[designer-ninja.livejournal.com]

Wow.... this is really sort of freaky.

But you always have to go with the lower eyelashes=female thing.

[athelice.livejournal.com]

Yes, but then there ITACHI who has even longer lower eyelashes than his MOTHER. It's true.

[deidarachan.livejournal.com]

...Wow. I'm not even gonna try!

My question is, is Kishimoto just being lazy with the character design, or is there something deeper behind it?
It's because she's his mother. I look like mine too.

Though... I think Tsunami, Mikoto, and Shika-mom are all the same person. Her true name is Naruto Character Mom #02.

[athelice.livejournal.com]

It's because she's his mother. I look like mine too.

Yes, but I bet you're a girl, right? It's a bit different when the son looks identical to the mom.

Naruto Character Mom #2...lol AND they look quite similar to their husbands too! Ahh, all the inbreeding!!

Haha, nope. one of them is incorrect ^_^ Good try!

[kaworu-chan.livejournal.com]

1. Sasuke.
2. Mikoto.
3. Mikoto.
4. Mikoto.
5. Sasuke.
6. Mikoto.

Although the last one was really hard.

[athelice.livejournal.com]

Sorry, that is incorrect! Sure is confusing, isn't it? XD

[athelice.livejournal.com]

So how come you decided it was Mikoto?

[zaccheo.livejournal.com]

and people think Naruto's the girl?

yeah, but its the crack to think that naruto is being labeled on the *gag* feminine side w/c is very far from it. dam, i was going to make an icon about it and i've seen this post. now i know im not the only one that thinks otherwise XD sasuke is much more beautiful, damnit. especially his bangs are longer now, the similarity is uncanny.

and yeah, while sasuke and itachi look alike, itachi looks more like his father while sasuke his mother. its cute, actually.

now, who's looking more like a woman again?

[athelice.livejournal.com]

Yea, go make that icon!! XD
I agree with you, that is NOT a MANLY face. lol
Though fanarts/fanfics tends to bastardize Naruto and transform him into this weepy, shy angel anyway. 'shudder'

[athelice.livejournal.com]

Nope~XD

[rainbowlasers.livejournal.com]

1. Sasuke
2. Mikoto
3. Mikoto (...GOING WITH HOW I DON'T THINK SASUKE'S DONE THAT FACE YET?'xcept she doesn't have the eyelashes but. Hum. She never went "..." either. So. Huh. Mixed feelings.)
4. Mikoto
5. Sasuke
6. ... Sasuke?

...If anyone dares say that Sasuke is manly after that I SHALL LAUGH. XD

[athelice.livejournal.com]

LOL It's evil of me to enjoy this so much.
You made 2 mistakes:
#3 IS Sasuke and #6 is Mikoto!

And what are you talking about, Sasuke's got the manly good looks of a seme that ever seme'd!!! XD (Yeaaaa...No. He's even girlier than Sai, if that's possible)

I revise!

EDIT: 3. Sasuke (little him)

[heronite.livejournal.com]

Whoa.... scary. @__@

Well, it seems that Mikoto has lower eyelashes to differentiate her, but it's hard to tell in some cases. :S

1. Sasuke. Recent manga.
2. Mikoto. Lower eyelashes.
3. Mikoto I guess. Because the look on her face is too soft and regretful to be post-timeskip Sasuke (pre-timeskip Sasuke didn't look That much like her, right?)
4. Mikoto. Lower eyelashes.
5. Sasuke. Recent manga.
6. Whoa, this one is hard to tell. @__@ But I don't remember Sasuke Smiling in recent chapters, so... Mikoto?

[athelice.livejournal.com]

#3 is Pre-timeskip Sasuke, actually ^__^
