someone explain to me how come the name changes from "maito gai" to "might guy" then back again over and over all the time - kaizen@june2
My question is why do you change his name to Might Guy but not change Kakashi, Naruto, etc? It's just like Kimahri from FFX, in English it means Christopher, but do you ever call him that? NO!! KiriYukimuraKiriYukimura6/23/07
Back to seriousness. There's something I'm confused on. Is Guy like Lee in that he can't use nin/genjutsu, or does he simply not choose to? I know he summoned that turtle once, but I'm not clear on whether or one such as Lee could do that with a scroll regardless of the handicap?
here are links to screenshot and manga panel where gai alludes to an alternative way of dealing with sharingan besides just focusing on the feet. unfortunately, he had no time to teach it to asuma and kurenai, as they had itachi to deal with.

Even though its a name in katakana and that of a fictional character, its a japanese characters name and as such, shouldn't we play it out as such? The japanese and worldwide fan whom recieved the series via fansubs and scantalations know him as Gai, thusly making the number far more Gai than Guy as I'm aware. I wont change it this moment, considering it will only make for a wiki-war of changes. But I say we call to a vote, as I think Maito Gai is far more appropriate as I had to question if I was even on the right wiki page, seeing "Might Guy" in said of Maito Gai. 07:11, 6 July 2006 (UTC) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Midusunknown ( talk • contribs) 07:11, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
All the names were switched to Western order for the English anime except for Gai's and Lee's...was there any particular reason?
C'mon, guys. This opening paragraph isn't even remotely close to NPOV:
"Maito Gai is a fictional character in the anime and manga series Naruto. Although he is almost exclusively referred to as Maito Gai by the English Naruto fan base (which is CORRECT), the crappy ENGLISH second official data book (Hiden: Tō no Sho) states GAI's name as Might Guy because they are retarded. This is in fact untrue, because as indicated in the official, Japanese anime, which is also uncut and pure, it is stated as MAITO GAI. The English version of the anime and manga also uses Might Guy, because they have their heads wedged FAR too far up their patoosies."

This page is getting vandalized and fixed to the point that it feels like it's changing every hour, and it is always switching the spelling of the name from Might Guy to Maito Gai and back. It's really starting to become annoying. Since many of the edits are coming from anonymous IPs, is it possible to partially lock the page so that anons can't make edits? At least until they get the point and stop trying to change the name. The ones who have usernames can at least be dealt with via temp bans and such. -- Djseifer 20:11, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
Does anyone else think that the picture for part 2 is a bad choice the image should be one of just him or him and his team. Kaji of the Flame 03:31, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
Secondly, isn't it still unknown whether or not Guy opened 6 gates in succession or only the 6th gate? Either way, it was either an amazing display of Mastery of the Gates and his own chakra, or an amazing display of stamina (since he was not tired afterwards, when the Gates are known to cause immense pain). Also, while it definitely should be noted that Itachi has warned not to underestimate Guy twice, the mentioning of Itachi narrowing his eyes at Guy could make a lot of Itachi fanboys call the wahhmbulance.
A major problem on Wikipedia concerning the information on the Naruto characters seems to be that while the jutsu/fighting style content is abundant, content on someone's actual personalities, relationships, and personal status is not. People will mention little things like a comical scene of Guy, at 26 years old, talking about his youth powers fading, and......well, Tenten's buns. And her name resemblance to a panda's name.
If you're going to mention tiny irrelavent scenes and tidbits, why not mention them all?
This is in reference to a line I read in Rock Lee's page. It said Guy can open at least six of the gates, as shown during his fight against a clone of Kisame Hoshigaki and I'm not sure if I understood it correctly. Does this mean Guy opened all six gates against Kisame's body double or did he just opened the sixth gate alone? On the manga, I read he just opened the sixth gate alone. -- Beef noodles 18:43, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
But Gai is a few minutes later fighting his own clone isn't he? He doesn't show fatigue or anything. A person might recover from opening one gate within a few minutes, as Lee did while fighting Gaara, but six? Seems unlikely. Could the Sixth gate be a prerequisite to Morning Peacock by itself?
This article mentions that in the filler Guy uses Kage Bunshin. My memory is a bit stale, can someone tell me which storyline that was, possibly the episode? Tyciol 12:56, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
Seeing as how this page is constantly being edited, I'd like to know how half of it is relavent and not just something to instigate lame fanboy discussion. While one can mention Itachi's warning and high regards to Guy and not underestimating him, mentioning a narrowing of his eyes is taking things a bit out of context, as we don't really know if Itachi was narrowing his eyes at Guy in general, or the fact that they were being interrupted.
Also it is not known yet whether or not Guy opened the sixth gate only, or opened six gates in succession.
"When this happens, a beach at sunset, complete with crashing waves, usually appears behind them."
Didn't this only happen once when Guy hugged Lee? Yep, only during their introduction. With this added on, including a scene of a 26-27 year old Guy comically whining and musing sadly of his youth fading, and extra mentions of how OMGDISTURBED!11 all of the kids were at Kakashi on Guy's back....half of this stuff seems irrelavent to Guy's role in the manga. You might as well add everything comical he ever does.
Half of the translations of that entire scene had the children completely overreacting, and Neji shouting "Hell no!" to Lee's offer, when the original translation has Neji stating "Absolutely not." to Lee's offer, with the kids having a much more tamed and comical reaction to Guy and Kakashi.

Also, I feel like crying about little things that don't matter. So.
http://forums.narutofan.com/showpost.php?p=2851354&postcount=291 ^ This and many other translations from the second character databook say that Guy's favourite phrase is "the Flower of our Youth". It would also help to explain that hitting the mitt is punching a punching bag, or a term for boxing.
Does anyone have a scan of the databook page with Guy's name written in English? The Splendiferous Gegiford 16:55, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
their should be a 6th gate picture
""Konoha's Prideful Green Beast" (木ノ葉の気高き碧い猛獣, Konoha no Kedakai Aoi Mōjū?)." This translation is wrong... someone should check it, "Aoi" = blue...
Mykas0 21:30, 22 July 2007 (UTC)
Actually, "aoi" = blue, pale, green, unripe, inexperienced. I think it's fair to assume that he is not "Konoha's Prideful Inexperienced/Pale/Unripe Beast", which leaves blue or green. Considering his jumpsuit, and that the translators are using the original japanese version and not the romanized version, green is the correct translation in this particular case 85.228.72.96 20:47, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
I don't understand why Sess won't explain the justification for their additions of categories to redirects. I have read the lengthy guideline quoted but I can see no need for this specific redirect, can anyone else? Better still would Sess just tell me specifically which bits of the guideline support you and I will be happy ... it's not difficult and it would be considered common courtesy by most people.
