So according to part of the spoiler, killing Kabuto won't end the Edo Tensei jutsu. And the zombies can only be defeated by sealing their souls or binding their movements. The only way to truly stop everything is to restrain Kabuto and use a powerful genjutsu on him so he will cancel the jutsu himself. I assume Kabuto is aware of this and has taken precautions.

A medic who needs to be defeated by genjutsu ? With this genjutsu thing, Kishi just put a giant "Sakura's prey" above Kabuto's head. Remember she is supposed to be a genjutsu type, right ? |

This war is shaping up to be amazing. Awesome. Epic.
Edo Tensei has finally been put to real use. (And no, I don't think it's cheap or anything. It's evil ninjutsu. Evil magic is always more hax because you're free to sacrifice lives/souls/minds/sanity.) Quote:

Knew Anko was toast because God, er I mean Kabuto was still there. Also what someone else mentioned that she's missing a vital thing in Narutoland for survival, a penis...
One bright spot this chapter though. No Naruto acting like a complete retarded tool... |

Why would Sakura, who as far as I remember has never used a genjutsu in the story so far, be destined to fight Kabuto? Sasuke, Madara, Itachi, or even Kakashi seem way more likely to be able to cast the necessary high level genjutsu needed to defeat Kabuto. Sharinganless genjutsu is pointless against a high tier necromancer like Kabuto.

Only Minato is sealed with the half of the kyuubi, since only the user of the dead demon seal has to give his life. Kushina just died from all what happened to her. The Minato and Kushina that were sealed in Naruto were some kind of spiritual kage bunshins, a copy of their minds that was created using their last chakra and sealed along with the demon. When the seal was broken both the Minato and Kushina clone could exist until the stored chakra ran out, at that point they disappeared. |

Man, Anko was off-paneled. And that folks is Kishi's favorite female character. I assume she is still alive, but it looked awful.
Really fun chapter though. Ninja being ninja. It looks like each company/division will get spotlight chapters to shine. So Sai will go off and fight his brother. Kankurou for Sasori. And I guess Omoi and the rest vs. Deidara. I have a very strong feeling Omoi will die. The focus should have been on the more established Kankuro or Sai this chapter. But Kishi focused on Omoi. Not a good sign when you are a secondary character.

Also in databook3, Kishi took the trouble of creating a profile for a completely irrelevant character, Senju Touka, in order to say Shodai's closest associate was a genjutsu specialist It implied Uchiha didn't have the monopoly on Genjutsu and was heavily hinting at Sakura, since even their name are somehow similar. (Sakura means cherry blossom, Touka is peach flower) |

-*Sigh* You know, if I didn't have Konan's death still fresh in all its bitterness burned in my head, I'd be ranting on and on about how much it pisses me off to see Anko defeated off-panel. On the plus side, she ain't dead...yet. Just wait as she pull that "Two Snakes Bite-Kill-Suicide" justu. We know its comming so no need to be in denial.
-Anyway, this was a fun chapter. And go figure, unlike what some other mangaka claim is a "war", Kishimoto can actually depict it properly. He's managing the units well and the tactics they use are essentially what real soldiers would do going off to war...if they were ninja with magical powers that is. -Anyway, seems like we have set up the 1st set of fights with Sai facing his brother, Kankuro against Sasori and Deidara with Omoi 'cause let's face it, fodder count for squat.

Please let Kankurou die, I don't know why but I hate that guy, also Kiba too whilst we're at it.
Also I disagree with Sakura vs Kabuto, since Kabuto has been constantly compared with Kakashi before, stating to be at least Kakashi's level before in the past then it may end up with Kakashi vs Kabuto.
