Those chakra streams...(Ep 62 spoilers)
 

The chakra streams that were coming out of Naruto...were there nine of them? I tried counting, but they were so light....

If there were nine, would that be referencing the "nine" tails?

Or is this explained in a later episode, and I should just shut up? :-P

Just shut up...Lol actually in the manga their are nine of them, in the aniem its pretty hard to tell but I would guess that their are, and yea, it was kinda a clue that he is now using the nine tails' power.... :p

this should be discussed in http://forums.animesuki.com/showthread.php?t=2525

they are showing that it is the chakra of the ninetails

im not sure about the exact starting points but there are clearly 9 different steams

Try and discuss it in one topic...which is Episode 62 Discussion.
