Talk:Fourth Shinobi World War: Countdown

Name

It think it's becoming increasingly obvious that "Fourth Shinobi World War" is a terrible name for this arc, especially since the war is likely going to be a backdrop for several upcoming arcs. I suggest "expanding" the Kage Summit arc up to chapter 488 and renaming this arc to something about jinchuriki or the demon fox. Thoughts? ~SnapperTo 02:46, July 18, 2010 (UTC)

Sounds good too me. --ShounenSuki ^{(talk | contribs | translations)} 06:30, July 18, 2010 (UTC)

I would have to agree with this as well, given it really makes no sense unless the War is only going to go for a certain amount of time. More so given that there will be more then one thing going on while the war is in effect. And the war is not really the main focus, but the Containers or what is left of said containers, and those hunting the containers. Hoever I am not sure what you could call it. --RogueNya (talk) 16:29, July 20, 2010 (UTC)

New Arc??

Is the Confining Jinchuriki Arc over? Should we start the 4th War arc now as of chapter 515?Sparxs77 (talk) 09:06, November 3, 2010 (UTC)

I think we should. --KiumaruHamachi (talk) 12:17, November 3, 2010 (UTC)KiumaruHamachi

Chapter 516 didn't feel much different, I think it should still count as part of this arc. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 20:54, November 10, 2010 (UTC)

I agreed. When the war actully starts, then we can make a new arc page? Is everyone okay with that?--NinjaSheik 22:38, November 10, 2010 (UTC)

Even though the jinchuriki are still being confined, and no LARGE scale battles have been fought yet... winning the 4th Shinobi War takes priority over confining the jinchuriki... So my opinion is to RENAME this arc instead of creating a new one. Besides... as of Naruto #516, Anko Mitarashi has begun fighting Kabuto Yakushi. Does that not count as the war beginning? --74.233.77.242 (talk) 21:45, November 11, 2010 (UTC)

Well, now that I think about it. I changed my mind, we should make a new arc. I mean, everyone is starting the War, right? People are charging into battle...But either way we do it, I'll go along with whatever the admins think it's right.--NinjaSheik 21:48, November 11, 2010 (UTC)

Don't be so hasty. Arcs are usually best determined well into the next arc. For all we know, the next chapter might throw everything around again. —ShounenSuki ^{(talk | contribs | translations)} 23:14, November 11, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, okay.--NinjaSheik 23:16, November 11, 2010 (UTC)

Just because the actual war hasn't started yet, doesn't mean that this can't be a new arc. I mean, look at Pain's Invasion Arc. The Arc started at chapter 403, but the actual invasion itself began at chapter 418. All I'm saying is we can determine the outcome with the way the story is moving. Since chapter 516 started showing the two opposing sides marching towards the war, I highly doubt that Kishi-sensei it will take another 30 chapters for them just to run to the battlefield and then dub it "Running Towards the Battlefield Arc." Also, since Bee told Naruto in the last chapter that he's almost done with his training, doesn't that signify that this arc is coming to a close? I just think the admins and higher ups should really think about this and not just shoot it down. We don't just say stuff because we like to. There is evidence to support this.
