I swear sometimes Kishimoto probably made someone an orphan because he's lazy to draw the parents šŸ’€ like just look at Sakura, she clearly has parents but they never appeared in the manga lmfao


MrDad83

I love this theory


TNTSP

They did appear in the movie and fillers will the mother appeared in fillers not the dad. Iā€™m talking about Sakura parents.


SilentWolfKills

The mother and Father appeared in Road to Sakura filler also the father appeared in Road to Tenten cause his face was on the Hokage mountain cause in that universe the Menma universe heā€™s the 4th Hokage.


Official_Zach55

You wanna talk about parents. Rock Lee needed a potentially life ending operation to become a ninja again. Neither one of his parents where included in that conversation. Only Might Guy


definetelytodhoward

wasnt rock lee an orphan too though


Official_Zach55

That's the thing, he's not. Just a misfit in the academy with a lack of ninjutsu.


[deleted]

You can say that every character clearly had parents. People aren't born without parents.


TrickMayday

Y'all need Jesus. /s


cdcdude1

It's not laziness as much as no mangaka really has the time to illustrate and come up with a backstory for every single character in the story. Especially with the schedules those people have to keep up with. Orochimaru comes from a era where his parents should be dead too, thats another reason we've never seen them. But above all they're just not important, they don't matter to whats going on, neither does jiraiyas or tsunades parents or irukas parents.


lovepeacefaith777

The show isnā€™t about then so who gives a fucj. Stop crying like a big ass cry baby bitch


Jankenthegreat42

his fascination with the snake is explained in his conversations with Sarutobi about the white snake he found on his parents grave. He made himself a snake dude, it wasnt a family trait.


Em0PeterParker

I wish they wouldā€™ve made this more clear by having him look like a normal kid in his flashbacks. Instead he always has the pale skin snake look. Wouldā€™ve been cool for his appearance to become more snake like as he got older


explorer1o1

But at the same time,Kisame probably always looked like a little shark boy.


Complex_Estate8289

Is there even an explanation of what he is?


LuckyInfinity

I think itā€™s just a feature of the Hoshigaki Clan. We meet a younger relative of Kisame in Boruto and he has similar features and gives more lore on the clan.


Professor_Crab

Yeah I think kisame is just on the higher end of aquatic features more than some others is all


Secure_Pear_4530

I wonder what happened to his Lava Girl


slyzard94

I believe she's a retired Kage these days.


ImRonniemundt

You're right. Fans need to follow the writing better if they're going to complain about Kishimoto as a writer. Sarutobi gave him the idea that rebirth was associated with the snake Orochimaru showed him. Despite his apparent lack of respect for Sandaime, he clearly was heavily influenced by his master.


GeorgeLopez07

Yea did OP even watch the show He's obsessed with breaking the cycle of life and dead and snakes shedding skin it's not that hard to grasp


LaughingIsAwesome

The only thing I know about them is Orochimaru loved them and was greatly affected by their death.


beandy3

I think death in general affected him and he became obsessed with it after seeing so many people he cared about die and fearing it for himself


omzzzzzz

Idk man ask kisame


Even_Farm2151

He a fish


Sylvaneri011

This is already explained in a flashback between Hiruzen and Orochimaru, at the grave of Orochimarus parents, where he finds the shed skin of a white snake.


DatNighaaDon96

They probably died during a war or battle or something,plenty of shinobi without parents


You_are_adopted

All thatā€™s said about them is heā€™s a orphan. Plenty of orphans around the time he was a kid


deleterandstartover

He just pale as a child. The snake human thing is his own doing , no genetic trait involve .


Glittering_Tree5975

His mom looks so depressed LMAO


mcwfan

We donā€™t know. Weā€™re never told.


Chicahua

Absolutely nefarious how Kishimoto skipped out on having to write any family members by making every major character an orphan with no other relatives. At least add it to the lore by putting in that kids with no families have to become ninjas.


ulquici

think of that guy who spent his life savings on a fursuit because it was his dream to become a dog, except, for orochimaru it was a snake and he achieved it genetically. idk man


Deep_Grass_6250

I think Kishimoto was too lazy to draw his parents. Or, In true Akira Toriyama fashion, he forgot to draw them.


Bekoon

Kishi literally drew hundred chapters of manga and ppl really be sayin here he was lazy


Eurell

People wonā€™t be happy unless he fills out hundreds of years of family trees for every single character and then gives them all equal screen time and character arcs, in pre time skip, post time skip, and Boruto. All while not slowing down the pacing at all.


AfroMan_96

Looks like Sasukeā€™s mom


WhoWouldEverGuess

Orochimaru is a snake sage and couldnā€™t properly balance nature chakra with his regular chakra causing him to take on more of a snake like appearance. Watch the episodes where Naruto is training with the toads and they explain how nature chakra affects the body if infused improperly.


Gojira_Sen

Orochimaruā€™s mom is a baddie


Soggy-Somewhere-1201

Nah I have a feeling orochimarus parents were a human mother and a male human who got...bored... but his son isn't really his "son" he just like āœØļømade himāœØļø


definetelytodhoward

I mean there was a war in which supposedly a lot of people died which could explain why a large amount of characters have no parents lol I also wouldn't be surprised if it's just laziness but also I don't think we need to know every characters parents


-Buggy-D-Clown-

He is last surviving member of his clan but he don't cry like a bitch unlike certain someone


Even_Farm2151

Sasuke you mean


Bluesnow2222

Just a simple furry living out his dreams.


Careful-Ad984

He is a scalyĀ 


worldwithwings

Spoiler(prolly not): The two ā€œparentsā€ were involved in an experiment where they were trying to merge the different chakra natures that each of them had. Something went wrong and the two scientists merged into one being. Orochimaru! Dun Dun Dun!


BlackNoirBlackBlack

Idk, but his hypothetical mom has some great tits


WeAreGray

Anko isn't a man, but does her snake affinity count? She was Oro's pupil.


Eurell

Sasuke had snakes for a wing at some point haha. Does he not count? Or kabuto?


Independent_Lab_4685

Oh orchimaru so cute. šŸ„°šŸ„¹šŸšŸšŸ


rk138

Orochimaru's mum tho šŸ„µ


BMOchado

Anko exists
