I like the way Sakura said she'd also been trained by a sannin (sp?) like a kid that also wants to hang out with the cool kids. I bet everyone was like 'aww how adorable, ok sakura, you can have your cute little mode.'

Sasuke's reunion with Team 7 is the worst most nonsensical anticlimax considering he tried to kill one of them and almost killed the other and he's done so much awful poo poo, but there's Armageddon at stake so sure, let it happen. I just hope Naruto gets outvoted and Sasuke ends up in prison after this war ends.

Seconding the "poor Hinata" sentiment too. I don't ship, but good god Naruto continues to be dense or is just an rear end in a top hat.

Eh, the 4th is clearly just using the Kyuubi chakra he sealed inside himself before the death god took him, so it's not really out of nowhere. How he can control it kind of is, but I'm just gonna assume that the Kyuubi's will doesn't seperate when its chakra does, that would be consistent with the gold/silver brothers' powers at least.

Madara's reaction is what had me laughing the whole time. Just priceless. First is such an rear end in a top hat and I love it. Also figures Kishi is speeding things up. Also I take it more that Naruto was trying to act cool in front of his dad more than anything. Either that or Naruto is that dense and Hinata just got friendzoned to the Max.

This stage is the one stage that Sakura isn't useless on. Slow moving giant things she can punch.

1v1 fights she doesn't have the speed needed to be effective. This style of fight is in her wheelhouse.

If it weren't for Susanoo Sasuke would be less useful than her.

Just give it to Naruto already - let's go ahead and get the Super Saiyan 3 Full Power Kyuubi Form transformation out of the way.

Eh, I can kind of see it, it's probably just an improved version of Tsunade's thing she does. Sakura can probably charge more, faster with less of an impact on her lifespan. The other two learned from their respective teachers.

I liked this chapter, and will have to echo poor Hinata. Getting her hopes up only to have them crushed.

Also, while Sasuke's sudden reunion is obviously poorly written and shoe-horned, the alternative is probably months of him being a moody little poo poo wasting tons of time that could be spent getting to what we just got in one chapter. The rule of thumb post time-skip has always been the less Sasuke, the better. It absolutely still applies here.

Remember, Kyuubi Chakra Mode is an overall boost and has nothing to do with the chakra reserves themselves. Naruto does it automatically whenever he tapped into the Kyuubi's chakra.

Yeah, if he was fast before, imagine how fast he'll be in kyuubi mode. Faster than 300 kmph, I bet.

This chapter was pretty awesome until the very last two pages. I dunno, handwaving all of the past events, even for the big finale, just irritates me beyond reason. All of those Sasuke stories were worthless, essentially.

Im pretty sure Kishimoto actively loathed Sasuke during that time, or at the very least grew to hate him. So doing a complete 180 on the character was the best thing he could have done even if it doesn't make thematic sense.

Yeah, I don't know why everyone is saying that the Sasuke thing is solved. Madara had the arc of being a friend then a fierce rival then was won back over to friend and finally lapsed back into a fierce rival. Just because Sasuke has been brought back in from the cold doesn't mean he won't poo poo things up in the future.

You can't really go faster than instant teleporting though. It just means he'll be super fast inbetween teleports as well.

If Gai took off his weights, he would go so fast that he would reach his destination before he left his starting position. Eventually, this would allow him to be everywhere at all times. Gai wears those weights so that he doesn't replace humanity with infinite copies of himself.

Are we talking an anime S-cry-ed ending where they crush a supervillain who loves his own name, then sort things out before having an awesome climactic duel, or a manga version where they kill the dinosaurs billions of years ago, become immortal, and then hundreds of years later team up with literally the entire cast to defeat the aliens from Tenchu-Muyou? Because they'd both be pretty OK, honestly.

I'd have absolutely no problem with Madara being revealed as an Anti-Spiral and watch the all the Hokage eat each other to become a giant mecha that's piloted by Naruto's pure manliness. :allears:
