The 3 Legendary Sannins
Naruto’s Legendary Sannin are not arbitrary. They’re part of a lineage tracing back over 200 years—Edo-period fantastical tales infused into modern anime.

The New Engagement Farmers
There's something strange going on and I think we are all starting to recognise it. I have spoken previously on the VSS Facebook Group about how to identify this seemingly new and improved shady folk. Justin has underlined the fact that new accounts will be subject to human scrutiny and I think that is a great idea. But again, I think that means we are facing up against a new enemy.
