It's like Dominic Deegan. Each week is somehow, bafflingly, amazingly, unbelievably in the most literal sense, dumber than the week preceding. Kishi never fails to surprise me, but it's never in a good way.

Naruto has become the Japanese Dominic Deegan, only well drawn.

I wish I had the willpower to stop reading this week to week and let the chapters accumulate, maybe even stop reading until it's over, but it's honestly not that bad reading week to week. Like others have said, it takes all of five minutes to read this each week, and even if a particular chapter isn't great, read all at once, it's still pretty good dumb shounen fun.

gently caress yeah, Kakashi! :kakashi:

So a theoretical scenario would be person A dies and regenerates his eyes, person A gives his powereyes to person B, person B evolves (like pokemon) the eyes into Rinnegan, person B uses rinnegan to resurrect A. Person B now has awesome eyes at the cost of nothing. Person A is now basically a Pez dispenser for magic eyes.

This is so fantastically dumb.

Queue DBZ levels of "I see, Dende can reach into the underworld and receive a gift from me! Quick, Krillin! Kill me so I can generate more eyes and we can take on Frieza!"

Oh no. Sasuke has become the reader.

That made less sense than, I think, anything else in the manga. There's been a lot of asspulls, like Manda stuff, but... this is just... contradictory! It doesn't make sense on multiple levels!

She doesn't have a say at all only the opinion of men matter in the Ninja World. All that matters is that Naruto is going to forgive him, and since he is Ninja Jesus all sin will be absolved and everyone will suddenly love him and trust him perfectly.

Everyone's already forgiven Sasuke, except Sai and I think Shikamaru. But I doubt that'll ever get brought up again.

Hey guys, the world is kinda ending and regardless of what Sasuke has done in the past, it's kinda important that he be "forgiven" or at the very least put up with since he is one of the 2 now 3 people who are capable of fighting and being useful on this stage.


And then if he helps you know stop Human Instrumentality, and the end of free will, that kinda forgives him defending himself against Naruto, killing a few cannon fodder and attacking Bee, and killing(well forced suicide) Danzou someone who was more evil than he was.


You would be an idiot if you couldn't look the other way in a world ending situation. Because boo hoo he betrayed the Leaf, and in doing so ended up doing just as much good as bad(Mostly due to his incompetence but shrug).

I'm torn about Sakura, because in all actuality Sakura is relatively useless on this stage, and would in fact be a massive hindrance to have around in this fight. So he's at least staying consistent rather than pulling some random power out for her which would allow her to be a factor on fights of this level.


Then again, if that's the case just get her out of there, having her just have to constantly get saved by Naruto, Sasuke and now Kakashi just isn't interesting.


Then again she and Obito did just save Sasuke rear end I guess, so shrug.

I don't understand what happened with that goat rabbit monster. Is that the moon god? Did she absorb the bombs and become that, and why?

In any event, "This isn't even my final form!" is in full effect. I predict she'll stabilize her form next chapter as another powerup.

Yea, no. Sasuke isn't winning any election.

Sasuke's conflict with Naruto is probably going to be how they handle the tailed beasts, as Sasuke wants to erase them, and Naruto wants to be friends with them.

It's really not a proper arc in Naruto unless Kakashi is either ending up in the hospital or is already hospitalized during it.

I'm honestly surprised it's been so long since he's been hospitalized.

How did the Uchiha have so much trouble in the first wars? Apparently dead Uchiha can come back from the dead for a short while to give people their eyes, why don't all the Uchiha have super eyes? Why couldn't this have been done before Obito died? What the gently caress has been gained except a shitload of confusion and contradictions? This is the worst goddamn excuse for a power-up in history and given how bad shounen gets, that's a loving accomplishment!

It's just, how do you fail so bad at such a simple narrative? This poo poo isn't complex, it's like someone writing an essay with some arbitrary page number so they just use as many words as possible to say the simplest goddamn statement! You can't even use 'it's for kids' as an excuse because kids aren't this stupid! I've read fanfiction better than this!

I mean it doesn't make sense that he can use his power, but each Uchiha have different powers.

Only Obito has been shown to have the dimensional teleport power.

Shisui could mind control

Sasuke, and Itachi have Amataseru, Sasuke has another ability to actually control the fire, while Itachi gets Tsukiomi.
