It's a new week, so that means new Naruto spoilers...which are now released.

i wonder if they had porkchops in that flashback

Can't say much about this chapter. There is a fight, the plot is slightly advanced. No new revelations this time.

That Mortar Jutsu looks fun, and I never knew the snake came out of his belly...:uhoh::heh:

Kinda boring. I'd rather they switch back to Naruto/Madara, and Kabuto somehow escaping off panel.

i'm with you on that one. i don't really get what's going on in this chapter. the art seems to be all over the place for some reason, or maybe it's just me. and i found kabuto a little annoying, he wouldn't shut up! :p

What was the point of building up Sasuke as a bad guy if even after turning to the evil side all he does is help the leaf village(don't care if meant to or not) and naruto in some way or another?I mean after reading the last two chapters you couldn't guess that he wanted to destroy Konoha.

agree... this Sasuke is different with the one who want to crush Konoha after stealing his bro's eyes.... maybe because of Itachi??

just chop that snake!!! I want to go back to Naruto Vs Tobi

I have a feeling after this it will go like this:
Sasuke: Argh I need to kill somebody!
Naruto: But every konoha ninja is wearing the same headband as everyone else so don't kill them, try tobi
Sasuke: Oh okay then
Epic fight scene with tobi
Naruto: Wanna be friends again?
Sasuke: Sure.
Naruto ends.

Im curious if it's the same ppl complaining about sasuke not talking about revenge and killing, are the same ppl who complain about him talking about revenge and killing. I doubt a lil side quest to capture somebody he already considered to be his enemy in exchange for answers he wants from his brother is going to magically make him a good guy. Also, why can't he have a normal conversation without ppl criticizing the story? How realistic is a blood thirsty psycho that only thinks about killing?

All that said, let's get back to naruto vs tobi now. Tobi was finally about to start fighting himself, which i dont know why im so excited to see. I mean honestly, tobi has never really been that impressive. I just want to see the unmasking i guess.

people asked for sasuke to talk more. lots of people complained that he was turned into a mindless killing machine with no dialogue. now he has dialogue. complaining persists...

the whole reason sasuke went psycho was because of itachi. it stands to reason that the very source of his psychosis (itachi) would have a calming effect on him and bring him back to earth a little

i didn't find sasuke irritating in this chapter though, it's kabuto i found annoying. it's nice to see some humanity in him. i just found the chapter a little bland that's all. however, it would be difficult for me to believe that sasuke would still want to try and kill naruto after this. i honestly think that if there's anyone who could influence or save him, it's itachi. so if itachi's presence alone could be a positive effect on him, why would he need naruto? why would he want to hurt naruto or konoha after this?

Sasuke said the word "Yeah" too often in this chapter imo

Dunno if it's the scan I saw or the art as is but I didn't like it this chap. All bleached out and those thin lines... Well, guess it might have to do with Kabuto's light/noise jutsu thingy, maybe in the anime it will look better if the whole cave is flooded in light ...

As for plot, not much there, I think it's a bit premature to come to conclusions about how Sasuske will handle it from here. For now I see no problem with the tagteam, Sasuske is intelligent enough to know it would be stupid to take on Kabuto alone at this point so it makes sense he teams up. I dare say I hope it's gonna take some more that "remember how we killed some stupid pig TOGETHER" to bring him back to the side of Konoha.

BTW, whatever happens between him and Itachi might not influence his attitude towards the village at all: They might well reconcile before Itachi bites it and then he still might feel it's all Konoha's fault for leading him and Itachi astray and still go on hating and act accordingly.

I'd rather think that IF he really changes, it is gonna be something that either Tobi or Madara do later that will have him reconsider...

Another small thing, I'll laugh my ass off if Kabuto's sensing ability is now limited because Sasuske took of that horn: maybe the horns are like a cat's whiskers :heh:

why dont sasuke and itachi just use amateratsu and burn mr snake?? I also dont understand whats going on with this chapter which is when itachi chopped his horn instead of his head =\.

On these forums, its “cool” to bash Sasuke, and complain about Kishimoto being a sexist. We're certain to read these complaints time and time again here(even if unwarranted); I don't know if it gets them rep points or what (j/k, partially). On these forums regarding Sasuke, you're certain to read a complaint about something. Anything.

If they kill Kabuto, the edo-tensei jutsu supposedly cannot be canceled.

Pretty meh chapter. we got a glimpse of how sasuke and itachi would be like if not for uchiha massacre. I understand why some people a complain, a couple of chapters ago sasuke was going psycho have quickly turned to the little bro from long ago. but I think this precisely shows how psycho sasuke actually is, he has bipolar disorder and doesn't need much to completely change his mood. as soon as itachi fades away he will once again go back being an angry kid. I think..... :(

lol I got this funny image in my head with sasuke lying in a boat with his arms wrapped around itachi's decapitated head...:heh:

They need kabuto ALIVE.
Which is why you READ the TEXT.

Christ...I'm actually starting to miss Bee...

Of course! Bee is awesome.
