Narutopedia is a terrible place and you should absolutely never go there, unless it is to seek out such gems as this original concept art for Itachi. LOOK AT IT, IT'S AMAZING, he looks like a colorful extra from Weiss Kreuz (or a plain extra from One Piece). I'm legitimately sad this didn't become his canon design, because IMAGINE IT. HE WOULD HAVE THREE FANS AT MOST AND ONE OF THEM WOULD STILL BE ME AND WE WOULD ALL APPRECIATE HOW WELL HIS APPEARANCE REFLECTS HIS TRUE NATURE AS A FAILBOAT.
Unfortunately, you also end up discovering things like Itachi being 148 cm tall when he joined ANBU, which is - you guys, that's not even five feet tall. I knew he was still a kid when he joined ANBU (and checking further confirmed he was 11, which is even younger than I remembered), but he wasn't even unusually tall for his age or anything, HE WAS 11 YEARS OLD AND UNDER FIVE FEET TALL WHEN HE JOINED ANBU. Konoha/other ninja villages, I know you are all dedicated to this child soldiers thing despite even Hashirama thinking it was kind of terrible, BUT YOU COULD AT LEAST PUT AN AGE/HEIGHT REQUIREMENT ON THE FUCKING SPECIAL OPS SQUAD DEDICATED SPECIFICALLY TO KILLING PEOPLE. "YOU MUST BE THIS TALL BEFORE WE CAN LEGALLY ORDER YOU TO MURDER EVERYONE YOU EVER KNEW" LIKE JESUS FUCKING CHRIST WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU ALL. Do I even want to look up what age Kakashi joined ANBU at? NO, I'M PRETTY SURE I DON'T, IT'S BAD ENOUGH HE WENT THROUGH THE CHUUNIN EXAMS WHEN HE WAS SIX.
I WARNED YOU BRO, I WARNED YOU ABOUT STAIRS NINJA FEELINGS.
Anyway Narutopedia also gave me the episode numbers for some Shippuden episodes that I should apparently watch for Kakashi and Itachi in ANBU feelings, so see you all later.
