Could it be, Omoi getting actual screentime in the fight!? Funny thing though, Deidara was revived packed with clay in his hand-mouths

^If they can come back with clothes and armor, I'm not sure why coming back with weapons would be strange...

Awesome matchups too! I admit, I was not a Kankuro fan before this chapter, but now I am. He's finally showing some leadership and confidence. Can't wait for his fight with Sasori and Sasori's snide reaction to seeing his body being used by someone who did not defeat him.

Also looking forward to Omoi vs Shin and Sai vs Sasori! Should be incredible!

actually Konan was technically the first casualty. but if you mean for this particular fight then yea he was the first

In that case wouldn't Danzo have been the 1st casualty of war?

I'm not in the camp of "I want everyone to DIE!!!!!". If someone's gonna die, it should be for a reason. The panel with Anko didn't add anything to the story. I really hope she's just beaten up and unconscious. Is this how "Kishi's favorite female character" gets treated? She has been sitting on so much potential for the story for such a long time. Even Danzo was a lot of wasted potential and he's a newer character. Don't drop the ball on this one.

Sai vs. his brother is one of the two major battles to watch right now. We hardly know anything about him. It'll be good to give him some development. Especially since he's, you know, part of Team kakashi and all.

Kankuro vs. Sasori is the other. Kankuro is showing strong leadership skills and courage here and if Omoi does something important, I think the inspiration for it will come from him.

I am hoping that she is beaten up and unconscious unless Kishi is being ordered to actually kill off some of the named characters for emotional responses. Too bad her team is currently being used as shields by the enemy's ambush team. One of them already went boom.

Anko isn't dead. If Kishimoto were going to kill off an Anko, he would have milked the moment. What he did with Anko was actually very effective. Anko is a beloved character. Especially among males. What better way to put over Kabuto more as an evil villain than that grim panel?

It would actually be great if Kishi had a one character from each division dies rule. It would really help to clean out the manga. In this case Omoi would go since we know the least about him and Kishi seems to be trying hard to make you care when he sacrifices himself to save the others.

Also it seems like those that can seal(Naruto?), bind people(Gaara, Shikamaru and the Nara Clan, Kurosutchi), or genjutsu specialists(No Kurenai so...Sakura?) are going to be very important in this war.

This was a fairly decent chapter. No real action yet, but it sets up for the next few chapters to be action packed. I enjoy seeing Omoi getting some spotlight, and I foresee Sai recieving some development.

Oh, I'm not sure if this has been mentioned before, but one of my friends made a suggestion for what Itachi could have given Naruto, today. Tsukyomi (possibly along with a sharingan?). Just think about it, how much sense it would make if that was his 'gift'.

No one really knowns what Madara did to them after teleporting them away. So I would classify them as 'unknown.'

What I meant was, the first members of the Ninja Alliance. Even though they were on a long mission and did not receive new head protectors or get placed in special squads, they were relaying valuable info to the alliance. Konan is more of a loose end to Akatsuki. As she was not a formal member of either side, the Alliance will not care for her death(Except Naruto). You could argue that she died because she was protecting a weapon that Madara required for the war, therefore she was a casualty. But I say she would have been killed anyway just for betraying Akatsuki, reguardless of what she was protecting. Madara could have fought her upon her immediate return to Amegakure, before declaring war. In other words, her fight was inevitable as was her death. Now Danzou, because he was at the Alliance Meeting(before it was an Alliance) I think would get credit, but no one really morned his death, everyone was glad he was gone. Again you could say that because he used his last bit of life to try to defeat Madara and Sasuke with a suicide move to prevent War that he is a casualty of it. But by originally pursuing his own ends and trying to gain position and power through manipulation, I think the rest of the Kages and assistants consider that close to a betrayal and could absolutely not be trusted. They even had someone guard him. Further more, instead of standing and fighting with the rest of the Kages, he chose to flee, abandoning the Alliance. Had he stayed, I think he would have survived. But because he lost everyones trust trying to pursue his own goals and abandoned the Alliance, he does not count as an alliance casualty of the War.

Poor Aburame Clan though. One KIA one MIA.

The author can kill off the entire cast. Naruto will just revive them all in the end anyways. That's the best way to end war. If no one can die, then what's the point? You're not hurting or weakening them.

I think that would be a horrible idea. Sharingan needs more limits and weaknesses, not more hax abilities. Thou some genjutsu proofing could be cool if the 9 tails doesn't act like the 8 when tame.

I'm really looking forward to this war. This is the most interesting nartuo has been since the chuunin exam IMO. Sure its cool to see sharingan battles and sage mode, but that puppet bomb tactic was AWSOME!! This is the kind of ninja battling I want to see. Not some DBZ power up race. Pluss in a war you can kill ANYBODY. Truly useless characters like Tenten and Kiba could make an impact on the story with their deaths in a war.

Personally I hope Sakrua or Neji dies. Not because I don't like them, but because having them die would take creative effort that has been missing in the naruto seires as of late.
