Oxigen_Waste Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 That would be the point, Zabuza already treated Haku like an object, it would make all sense to call him "it". Or her. I firmly believe she is a girl. It doesn't matter though, cause there is no official answer to the question, so this is just ramming our heads against a brick wall to claim reason for something noone can prove. It's pointless arguing. It's like debating the end of Pan's Labyrinth...

Shorty Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 Actually the only reason Haku will have been referred to as 'it' is the choice of the translators... a personal pronoun would never have been used in Japanese. Haku was definitely a boy, it was more obvious when he was younger. It's ridiculously hard to grasp, and at times I have actually forgotten he is a 'he'. The name 'Haku' is unisex and the looks very feminine, so it's easy to think he was a girl. But honestly, there's absolutely no reason for the writer to have Haku pretend - and then never reveal the truth at the end. Perhaps the only reason was to throw in the comic value of Naruto fancying 'her'.
Blue_Ninja0 Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 Haku IS a guy. I'm sorry if I shattered your all well defined sexual preferences but he is a guy. It's stated somewhere in the anime but I don't remember where. Naruto thought he was a girl though, which was kinda part of the plot. If Haku is male, I am gay. I'm sorry you found it the hard way.

ShadowV7 Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 Yea Haku says he's a boy once he leaves Naruto in the forest. I still can't believe it, I mean when he's in the forest he looks so girly... Damn Shorty beat me, took to long finding that page...
Hellfire Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 The fact he/she says that means nothing. He/she also looks more like a girl than a boy when he/she's young.
Shorty Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 Naruto likes his katakana I see. There's a lot of katakana in Naruto, even in the logo... http://www.narutoplace.com/images/2005/11/wallpapers/naruto-logo.jpg I've often wondered why.The fact he/she says that means nothing.He/she also looks more like a girl than a boy when he/she's young. Oh no of course, baseless fan speculation means much more than something the inventor of the character actually wrote into the story itself But maybe he was trying to trick us? Which might be true if there was any kind of motive for doing that or if Haku didn't die a few chapters later never to resurface ever again with the truth never being revealed or indeed any reason for lying the first place! *BREATHES*

If she renounced her sexuality like I said, she would obviously say "I'm a boy". The writer probably wrote it that way just to have some fun and mess with us. Not that it matters, but it's fun discussing it
ShadowV7 Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 I'm kinda hoping for a flashback in the manga to go back to Zabuza/Haku so it can confirm Hakus a girl It can happen...

Shorty Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 You know what I think? I think you guys all fancied Haku, then when you found out he was a dude, you freaked out and started coming up with all these crazy conspiracy theories
Supergrunch Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 There's a lot of katakana in Naruto, even in the logo... http://www.narutoplace.com/images/2005/11/wallpapers/naruto-logo.jpg I've often wondered why. It's in the logo because that's standard - most logo's are in katakana. As for the speech, it's probably used to indicate stresses on words - teenage dialogue is sometimes written like that.
Shino Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 So the Don would go for a travesty, even after being warned? Not very wise.
Hellfire Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 So the Don would go for a travesty, even after being warned? Not very wise. I'm all Hinata, Temari and Anko dude.
Coolness Bears Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 I'm all Hinata, Temari and Anko dude. They are all boys.
ShadowV7 Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 I'm all Hinata, Temari and Anko dude. Same here. Though I didn't like Temari at first cause all she done was look stupid with that fan of hers. But I mostly like Hinata and Anko.
Coolness Bears Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 HARUHI FTW! but From Naruto, Hinata is THE BEST! :awesome:
Ellmeister Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 Inoue + Matsumoto + Rukia > Hinata, Temari and Anko Real people >Inoue + Matsumoto + Rukia :p
Supergrunch Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 Inoue + Matsumoto + Rukia > Hinata, Temari and Anko Real people >Inoue + Matsumoto + Rukia :p And Sara Matsunaga > real people. I jest. :wink:
Shorty Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 Oh really people are we actually going to compare animated women. Hinata ftw
ShadowV7 Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 Well I have £30 to spend from my gran for my Christmas. So far £15 is towards the first part of Bleach, but for second lot, dunno whether to get DeathNote, Noein or Eureka Seven. Probably DeathNote since it's the only way I can get it this year...
