>>5796626If we do a time skip Junpei will definitely wind up in ANBU. He's just built different. Naoki also has the temperament for it, but he would probably make it a temporary career-broadening move when he's older because he wants to be a normal ninja. Daigo wishes he was ANBU material because his great-uncle is Danzo, and Yuzuki would also be interested because she wants to do hardcore assassinations, but both of them have the wrong personality for it. Not detached enough from the job.
>>5796485>Blue's point was that being specialized as opposed to a generalist was better for a *Genin*.Basically. As a genin you're part of a TEAM so you're stronger than the sum of your parts when you move as one body. Therefore each person having a specialty is superior. Naoki is stuck hiding behind a rock, can't close into melee on Fireball Frank standing in a clearing on account of the fireballs and has no real ranged option that's going to work? Give him a crab for some mobile cover, or spray the fireballs with water jutsu while Naoki jogs in close.
Ditto for you in melee. You need to be able to withstand a moment or two of a melee dustup because your teammates won't be glued to your anus the entire fight, but ultimately if someone strong is trying to punch you in the face you're going to have to pray that Naoki or a crab come in and molly wop him to take the heat off. On a meta level, you being a team is why your dice are also applying to them.
Going forward, especially jonin level, you're expected to be able to operate alone fully functional, so you need to become the full package.
I may or may not have D&D today. It's a westmarches style that happens on Sunday so I'm hesitating to continue in case they need me to tag in. It was supposed to start 15 minutes ago and I'm staring at the voice chat realizing that they don't have enough people because 2 who were supposed to be there haven't shown up yet. If I'm a free man I'll continue running in like 45 minutes.
>I had one (1) guy tell me he envisioned Otomo looking more like Mizuki, so, pic related. You guys prefer this, yes/no.
