[Manga] Chapter 481 Discussion
Welcome to the weekly manga chapter discussion thread. This thread is created early to discuss spoilers and speculation about the upcoming chapter as well as discussion of said chapter once it has been released.
As per the forums rules, please don't ask for or mention about where to download the (licensed) manga. Also remember not to post or link to any translations of the manga, since this is illegal as well. Posting a synopses or summary is fine (and welcome) but please do not discuss scans, raws, translation groups, etc. Additionally, if you are posting someone else's synopsis (or their translation of a synopsis), then please provide credit were credit is due. Remember that the manga is licensed, do not post significant parts of the chapter. This stands for pictures and direct translations. Summaries are ok, crops of pictures are ok as well if you want to illustrate your point but this is it. --- Chapter Status: Complete spoiler released... Quote:

There is at least 50% that Karin died. Kishi did said in his last interview that the outcome of this fight will decide Sasuke's path in the future. That being said if Karin realy died, it means Sasuke sacrified his teammate. He will be completly in darkness, and wont be draged out of there, even if Naruto tries. And if he does, if Kishi realy did that. Than that would be very imoral.

^It is unclear what exactly Danzou does. It appears that he is trying to use a jutsu of some sort, but it is unclear if the jutsu works, or if he accidentally kills himself while trying to escape.
Also, the confirmation of Karin's death is still a little iffy...(mostly because I am the one just going through the untranslated spoiler picking out details)... |

According to Madara, Danzou uses a reverse sealing jutsu when on the verge of dying. There is no way he is dead.
Sentences of the week : "this will be a nuisance" by Sasuke, looking at Karin's body. "Things are going a little poorly" Sai to Kakashi after Sakura is ready to uses force against her team to go alone against Sasuke. Also, the flashback is incomplete. It's only Danzou, Nidaime and Team Sarutobi being surrounded and Nidaime offering to be a decoy and naming Sarutobi hokage. If it ends here before entering into Danzou's motivations, it amounts to nothing. It's only an introduction to Danzou. It contains nothing interesting. (we already knew Sarutobi was picked over him, so what's the point ?) Since the fight is over (Sasuke apparently directs his attention to Konoha after Danzou did his sealing ball), we need more Danzou to complete the flashback. |

Karin dies (x_x), Danzou suicides (x.x) and Sakura vs Sai (o_O). Didn't really expect that last one, but the first two were virtually given. In my mind at least. Danzou strikes me as the type that wouldn't let the enemy learn what his body could reveal. Plus if there's the possibility he can actually take someone out with the jutsu he uses, it's always a nice bonus. Nothing OOC (Out Of Character) here.
Very glad that Karin died. At least there's absolutely no doubt left. Even if she gets healed, I don't think she'll go join Sasuke again anytime soon. And she might actually tell Sakura (Because that's the most obvious saviour in my mind at the time) about it all. If she dies without telling anyone anything, I'm sure everyone will appreciate this extra step forward in the darkness that the kid is taking. If Sakura intends to fight Sai for real. Does that mean she could potentially be considered 'rogue'? And if she is a rogue. Does that mean she intends on finding Sasuke and... *gasp* join him? They've got a few entry-level, healer positions that just got freed up...

The spoilers sad that Danzo IS dead and Karin seems to be dead as well...
I actually really hope that she is alive but Sasuke will mistake her for dead and then Sakura and others will find her and heal her. Because I really want to see and know Karin's reaction and thoughts about her "Sasuke". Really doubt that she will have fangirl moments any time soon. And Sasuke is a bastard who needs to die! Karin might not be the best person but she did all in her power to always help him.

Nah apparently, from the latest translations, it's a seal that suck everyone around him when he dies so that he can take his opponents with him. It means he was really killed by Sasuke
The thing is that, apparently, he walked away from Karin before the seal activated, so Kishi can't make it more obvious she won't die. (If he really did walk away from her) Two new characters are introduced in Danzou's flashback. an Akimichi and an Uchiha. I think it's the night when the rift between Uchiha and Konoha opened. Probably, the only way Kishi found to make us cheer for Sasuke's stupidity is to treat us with part of the plot (a part of that night flashback) every time Sasuke gets one frag. (because as it is, that flashback is completely uninformative pointless filler, but it has the potential to be the introduction to something big) Last edited by Rahan; 2010-02-03 at 09:19. |
