If this marks the moment Naruto starts bullshitting his way to victory I'm gonna be so happy.

I willed too hard again...
I was fully expecting Madara to say "JESUS CRIST MY LEGS...I CAN'T MOVE MY LEGS"

I'm pretty satisfied that Madara at least got wrecked for a few pages and that Naruto was able to use his Chosen One powers to save Gai, even if it's just so he can say his goodbyes because I don't think his body is going to be saved after being burnt to a crisp like that. I'm also hoping Gai's kick did more than just pop a hole in Madara's gut that he was able to heal a few seconds later, and that it cracked the tree from the other side out which they'll discover later when Madara tries to use it or something.

To be honest, I'm just happy that Naruto only has the kyubi+sagemode eyes. I was fully expecting the Rinnegan. Also, I guess no one's dying anymore at all.

No! Let Gai die! Make this moment more epic. :(

Is anyone surprised about Madara's response? :geno: "You almost killed me" [heals]

Why did the nightmoth look like a dragon? I had this epic moment in mind where a giant moth with flaming wings bears down on Madara. :(

I did like the Kakashi moments though. It feels like a good moment for Gai's personal story arc that Kakashi recognises him as the stronger one.

Goddamn I can't wait to see that animated.

Gai did alot of damage to Madara. Cracked the hell out of his ribs and Madara looks like he can't get back up. Probably gonna merge the tree. Not gonna lie, I'm fine with Naruto saving Gai's life.

I find it pretty hilarious that probably the strongest taijutsu ever used managed to crack a few of Madara's ribs.

I know death is all but meaningless in this manga, but it's really annoying when they build something up as "Use this and you're going to die" and then someone comes along and makes you better.

Well, at least he had some of his smug knocked out of him,and then slightly more when Naruto kicked his attack back in his face. Hopefully the next few chapters will just be various characters kicked Madara back and forth like a football.

Does anyone know what happened with Gai's chakra at the end? I saw a "pof" baloon in the last page and I intended it as Gai's chakra turning off, but apparently the flame grows up...?

Seriously, is Gai alive or dead at this point?

Looks like it was Gai's last life force about to disappear when Naruto's new sun powers (looks like Sasuke got moon powers) restored it

But Gai's body is still burnt to crisp though. I wonder if Sasuke could fix that

His top speed is so fast it actually warped space, so I think he was approaching 671 million miles per hour. The real problem with opening all the gates is that it takes an infinite amount of energy and you risk violating causality.

Triple Elation

1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + ... = -1
Suppose the distance between Gai and Madara is 10m. At t=0 Gai lunges at Madara, travelling at v = 0.8c.

In Gai's frame of reference, the distance between Gai and Madara has shrunk to 6m. Madara himself, and the rest of the battlefield, appear shrunk by a factor of 0.6 to Gai along the Gai-Madara axis. Further, time appears dilated to Gai, such that for every second that passes in the Gai-verse, about 1.6 seconds pass in the Madara-verse.

From Madara's point of view, Gai himself has shrunk by a factor of 0.6 along the Gai-Madara axis, but he should not perceive any 'warp' in space as he claims (unless, naturally, he can switch to other relativistic frames of reference with his Rinnegan). Gai covers the distance in approximately 33 nanoseconds. Gai's weight is known to be 76kg, so Gai hits Madara with about 2 exajoules of kinetic energy, which according to Wikipedia is more energy than the United States uses in a week and is almost twice as powerful as an entire 0.9 Richter scale earthquake hitting you at once. This is enough to crack Madara's ribs and inconvenience him slightly.

The dragon was Gai's moth, which is either a wingless serpentine moth or else there's a stage beyond larval dragon moth.

We've seen Tsunade pull herself together from being halved. Madara has a Wolverine power healing factor, unfortunately, which is even more broken.

really piss me off.

We've got a guy who has only punch powers doing the most massive damage yet to the entire big bad, and he may be saved by Ninja Jesus, it's pretty much the best case scenario, as we know Guy couldn't have actually won the fight. Only thing I could see people not liking is Guy possibly surviving this whole thing, but that sits well with me, because he's not getting that foot back, and probably explained away as "you only get one" 8-gates in your life, but you won't die as long as you have a cleric in the party.

Madara lived, so Guy should live. If Madara was killed by it I'd be fine if Guy died. So I'm happy with this.

Yeah, he kicked him so hard he blew out what looks like Madara's left arm, a good portion of his chest, and screwed up his face pretty hard. But burning so hard your feet start turning to ash is pretty :black101:. Gai owns.

Cool chapter even though we all knew how it'd turn out. Sad that Rock Lee didn't even get a mentor save and got chumped by ninja jesus again though.

not the analytical engine
It looks like Madara is filling in with Zetsu goop from the tree, like Obito does. Maybe if he was kicked in the other direction he would've died?

But all the backgrounds & foregrounds look the same right now, so maybe Madara isn't touching it. It took me a while to realize Guy isn't laying on a tree root (which would've killed him instantly) but is actually in the trench he caused.

Harry posted:

The cleaning job on the first set of scanlations made it kinda unclear, but yes, you're right. At the same time he's clearly regenerating as he speaks, so within maybe a minute or even less after that literally earth shattering kick, Madara will be perfectly fine again.

In regards to the name of the technique, it's 夜ガイ (Ya Gai), or Night Guy. The translator who did it as Night Moth probably confused it as being 夜ガ, where the ガ would be 蛾, or moth. Which explains why the look of the attack has nothing to do with moths.

That is wonderful. All of his gate attacks were based on animals, so naturally his final attack would be based on the most amazing beast of all.

EDIT: if you can post specifics that'd be great; also not just limited to Naruto obviously, but I haven't seen any specific posts like that in other threads

Naruto - Night Elephant is used when its evening Elephant

Bleach - Yachiru mentioned like 4 times that Kenpachi wouldn't come back when the Raw made no mention of it.

One Piece - Usopps speech didn't match his thoughts like MangaPanda's TL. http://i997.mangapanda.com/one-piece/744/one-piece-4893079.jpg

Since about February their overall quality dropped and Mangapanda's TL was better.

Wow that Usopp Translation got completely hosed by Mangastream.

Also, Kenpachi getting "hard," and the omission of his line to Isane about "Come cut me if you're upset" a couple chapters ago.

Bleach - When talking about how he killed Unohana, he says 'I hated her, so I killed her'. The actual line is him telling Isane 'if you hate me for it, kill me.'


Edit: Speaking of which, where can I go to read the non-mangastream versions of these? Every reader I normally use replaces the quick formerly bad ones with the currently terrible mangastream ones.

This may sound crazy, but Manga Panda might keep the Manga Panda scans up instead of using Mangastream's.
