I for one are happy to see naruto finish up with an enemy without looking like a mormon...err..moron. Sorry =( He finally got this feeling you got with sasuke pretty much from the beginning: he's strong.

Kakuzu didn't really get overpowered; he got tricked in the most retarded of ways that completely goes against the character he was portrayed as before Naruto came into the scene. You can excuse him for not knowing how Naruto fight and nearly getting killed the first time; but coming out from that he should had known waaaaaaaaaaay better.
People don't seem to understand that this wasn't a 1 on 1 fight; but a 1 on many fight. Kakuzu specialises in wide destruction jutsus and he is fighting someone who can do the same, if not more than him. However, Kakuzu doesn't have any one else on his side to worry about. Logic would dictate to attack the other people who he, I and everyone else on this forum knows can't defend against his attacks either forcing Naruto to watch them die (which we all know he won't since he already saved them with Yamato), or to let the real Naruto jumped into the open to save them which sooner or later will give Kakuzu the opening he needs to win the fight. Yes, Kakuzu doesn't have an endless supply of chakra; but he didn't have to. Even ignoring this, there was absolutely no reason for Kakuzu to leave himself totally defenseless knowing that there are ninjas out there in the vicinity who already destroyed his hearts and can easily finish the job if given the chance.
Naruto's strength is not in question here, nor his tactics and skills. It is simply the way how Kishimoto dumbed a ninja like Kakuzu who should had known waaaaaaaaay better.
Have everyone noticed though that out of the akatsuki members that died so far, we haven't seen their ultimate jutsus? Sasori let himself be killed before revealling his 2 most powerful jutsus. Hidan, well speak for himself; and Kakuzu still had his real heart and own jutsus that he didn't use (he was using the hearts/jutsus of others). Would this trend be continued?
