I'll admit Sasuke was sort of making sense when he said Itachi was the real Hokage, but it went down a much stupider path than I thought after that.

They should have called this manga "Itachi is neat" and cut the nonsense.

So Sasuke wants to be the target for all the world's hatred to unify them against him? That's basically what Itachi did and kinda what Pain did but on a much grander scale for the former and through hatred and not fear for the latter. It kinda makes sense to me...? That doesn't mean it's especially compelling or smart but it does make sense. edit: to be honest I'm more interested in waiting for the Sharingan Legend. That's tomorrow right?

blah blah blah darkness blah inside me blah. Not even killing Sasuke can redeem this manga. The only way I'll be satisfied is if in the middle of their fight, they fly at each other and start making out like in a horrible fanfic and then it just ends right there.

If you cut the pages after Sasuke said Itachi was the real Hokage (which was really loving cool) and keep some of the flashbacks about how one person can't do this poo poo alone, then we got a good chapter going, otherwise boy did Sasuke's logic seemed flawed the longer he went This, also, would've made the chapter ten times better

By the way the anime's reached the part where Obito becomes the Sage or whatever, while the dub has just hit Gaara's big speech right at the start. There's no escape from this arc!

I wonder how anime only viewers are going to react to Kaguya. Also I am reminded all over again of how much I dislike Super Ninja Naruto. Sage Mode was just so much better in every single way, why Kishimoto whyyyyy.

Aesthetically, I do like the way that Naruto's Nine Tailed Jinchuuriki form looks, unless we're talking about this one. That being said, I definitely would've been more on-board with the idea of Naruto's Jinchuuriki powers being something that he needed to avoid using and he uses Sage Mode as a substitute.

Sage Mode was cool because there were limitations. And it was, seemingly, on par with a MS Sasuke, so the two could theoretically have a good battle. After Naruto became the strongest fighter of all time by mastering the 9 tails I was confused how they were going to have an even fight, didn't assume both of them would go to like God Level Strength from a Ghost

Sage Mode was visually distinct, wasn't a generic "now I'm twice as strong" shonen power-up, and tied into Naruto's established moveset perfectly. In-story it's the natural culmination of his apprenticeship under Jiraiya, and shows how he's grown from relying entirely on the Nine Tails. Tailed Beast Mode is basically the opposite of all of that, it's horrible. It is literally Super Saiyan Naruto.

Sasuke: "Itachi aspired to be a light in a world of shadows and protect his beloved village. To this end, he concoted an insane plan that involved killing a lot of people and becoming a lightning rod for everyone's vengeance and misery -- a plan which failed utterly and, as he told me in person, ultimately brought him nothing but bitter regret. It is this second part of Itachi's legacy that I aspire to emulate."

No they'll totally know because he's going to tell them and declare himself grand dictator for life and make the entire world hate him so they're too busy to hate each other. Until he dies and then everything goes back to normal and he accomplishes a grand total of nothing.

Sasuke's the hokage the world deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So, we'll hate him--because he can take it. Because he's not our hokage. He's an whiny guardian. A complete douche nozzle. An Uchiha.

He wants everyone to know that he killed the kages because he wants everyone to hate him instead of each other, so there will be no more war. The big problem with this plan is that IT ALREADY HAPPENED. The whole Ninja UN thing was about them putting aside their differences and focusing their hatred on Obito/Madara. His utopian plan is perfectly fine, but it has already happened and he just wants some petty revenge because he

He probably realized that this was the opposite of what Itachi wanted the moment Naruto brought it up, but just stopping there would be awkward for everyone involved, so he kept going.

It would be cool, and extremely hilarious to realize that Naruto considers Sasuke's plan so pathetic that he won't even confront Sasuke himself, and instead sends a clone to do it. I can imagine him and the sage having a convo about it too.

Orochimaru: "So I guess I could really get used to this. I mean, clearly the world is absolutely out of room for more villains, and the barrier to entry for the job has become ludicrous to begin with, so I suppose that now that this Kaguya business is done and the world is a giant crater, I can settle for hanging around doing crazy-sweet experiments while I groom my insanely hardcore student to become Hokage. Occasionally I'll go out drinking with Tsuande, and we can have hearty chuckles about how we're both obsessed with not growing old, and about my hilarious no-arms phase. Then when Sasuke is Hokage I will go to Mt. Rushmore and laugh in Hiruzen and Minato's huge stony faces, and here is Sasuke making his grand statement that will launch his political career starting with freeing everyone from - - - huh." Naruto: "So, Sasuke, I understand that you are challenging me to a battle of who can make the more convincing, ideology-crushing, existential-crisis-inducing speech. So what handicap am I taking? Do I speak in Pig Latin? Maybe I can start by staying away from the word 'friend', or, to be safe, the letter 'e' altogether, and we can see how it goes? Maybe we can arrange for you to be verbally resuscitated, like, once or twice, when you are near the brink of despair? Should I do it? Should we get Hinata?" Kakashi: "Dear screenwriters; I would like to express my deep distress over a recent scene where I am incapable of dispelling a simple genjutsu. Gai, at least, got to go out in a blaze of glory and will be remembered for his role in this battle; I, in contrast, will be remembered for receiving a temporary ghost eye transplant, which is apparently a thing. I have been reduced to reaffirming to myself that 'all I can do is believe in Naruto and Sasuke', which is a weak, ridiculous attitude to take, befitting of fodder and not nigh-first-tier main characters such as myself. To be frank, I cannot imagine the lows to which a character could possibly yet sink from such a position." Sakura: "gently caress my life."
