G*d-damnit, will Kishi just have Sakura get fed up with Sasuke's shit and super-strength-punch him for it already? Even if it's not able to successfully seriously harm him, it'll at least get the message across to him that she ain't gonna put up with it anymore.

So... Kaguya, like Madara, wants to make it so she's the only one who can use chakra. Why? Is it the same "make myself god/goddess over the de-powered masses and BOW BEFORE YOUR NEW GOD, MORTALS!" thing as he had going?

Also, calling it: Obito ain't dead, and he's gonna wake up and save Naruto and/or Sasuke's bacon at some point.

[Wandering Soul]

Kishi seems to have finally remembered that the hokages still existed. I was pretty sure he forgot all about them. Kaguya's goal is that basically she wants to keep all the chakra to her herself.

This whole thing where Sasuke says that Kakashi and Sakura are useless and Sakura get depressed seems like it is gonna go on for a while. Why cant Sakura just get over Sasuke for now and stop caring about what he thinks? Sasuke isn't exactly wrong but still she could stop letting it get to her.

Ya know, I think Kishi just HATES Sakura, after chapters of this treatment

[Haloid]

Man Sasuke is really out of character right now but I don't know why I am complaining because he has been out of character for years. Why is he suddenly finding Sakura useless when he found her highly useful during the Zetsu fight? Alright guys here is what is going on. Kishimoto is tearing down Sasuke's character to build up either Naruto or Sakura's character so there are three scenarios on how this could end up,

1) Scenario one benefits Naruto's character: Kishimoto is having Sasuke's character call Kakashi and Sakura useless to prove Sasuke is not Hokage material. A true Hokage would acknowledge the strenghth of his shinobi. Its obvious from Naruto defending them that Naruto is Hokage material.

2) Scenario two benefits Sakura's character: this is the most likely one. Sasuke is calling Sakura useless because Kishimoto wants Sakura to prove Sasuke wrong. This means that Sakura will be getting a power up in the next couple of chapters and it will make Sasuke eat his words big time and proves Sasuke is not Hokage material.

3) Scenario three benefits the NaruSaku pairing and this one is the least likely of the three but plausible. Kishimoto is having Sasuke emotionally abuse Sakura so that she will see what a great guy Naruto is. This is also "paired" (pun intended) with the fact that Naruto defended Sakura from Sasuke's emotionally abusive words and tried to protect her self worth. Its cheesy but not impossible. Sakura may see that Naruto is better guy and love him instead. Also, this will prove that Sasuke is not hokage material. If you haven't noticed the ulterior motive of having Sasuke tear down Sakura's character is to tear him down and prove he is unworthy of being Hokage.

Sakura is back to being immo and useless , lol she so weak hearted toward sasuke it a pain to see , it so odd !

[Kaengel]

Super Saiyen : Check.
Kamehameha : Check.
Being able to fly : Check.
Instant Transmission : Not Yet, but might be coming.

Naruto is more and more like an other well known character.

[OH&S]

Well that was a boring chapter. Also useless Sakura, changing dimensions, flying Naruto and a villain that exists only to be a final villain and nothing else.

[Justice Knight]

[neshru]

I think the time for that is long over. this war essentially created a new manga series that is more like dragonball than naruto (which already was kinda like dragonball but this stuff now... lol)

We need a greater understanding of who kaguya is. I mean was she good and turned evil after the fruit?
Was she always evil? Is that eye possessing her? And what exactly was her fate? Rikudo and his brother defeated the the 10 tails according to what we were told (by the way Hamura apparently had juubi chakra sealed in him/her too) but we dont know what became of Kaguya. At one point i wonder if she her self was the juubi. The ‘final form’ of the juubi was that tree and we know that she spoke to madara right before he absorbed it. Maybe the sibling sealed away their mother and sent her to the moon. I think those angry facial expressions that kaguya makes when narutos and sasukes yin/yang on their palms is shown hints that kaguya and rikudo may have fought each other.

Young rikudo look pretty badass by the way

I think its clear that she was consumed by hubris after she ate the fruit. Now she's spouting all sorts of BS with her being god and all.

[DarkHollowIchigo]

Who Kaguya exactly is in detail, i assume we will see that in the upcoming chapters.

Dude, you're 5-7 years too late. It stopped being about ninjas after Part 1 ended. In detail, since the beginning of the Sasuke "Rescue" Arc. It's Naruto Z now.
