I guess you want to know my reaction to all this. Before getting into it, all I can think is, "Man, so glad Naruto said, 'stay next to me' before Sakura and Kakashi joins with them." The "well, you're not main characters, so bye" jutsu. Ok, time to dive in.
First of all, for once, yeah, don't hit Sasuke because hit him and he will fall and well, the series ends on a bad note. So who would have thought for once, don't hit Sasuke. But yes, luckily, if combining the armor, which is still considered the best defense, with the power of one-half of Hagoromo, it can help. The strange part is the edo. Why they haven't gotten the effect? Well, probably because they're just edo, a jutsu if you may. Good to see Minato again. But dang, all the way back to Konoha. I guess when he took bullets, he used the kunai that goes there for safe and recovering time. Now that he's back, he can join the battlefield again. Here's hoping that Naruto can recover his arms with his new found ability. It's possible, so we can have complete Minato again for this perhaps the finale.
So, shall we go to the inevitable aspect that the people wants to talk about the most? Certainly. All I remember before entering here is "next page..." After coming here, it feels like the episode of South Park where they show someone who they can't really show because it's offensive to the culture or something, but the screen time was so short, it wasn't bad, but the anger still happened. In short, you can't escape the outbreak. Case in point, Hinata. I read it two more times before going here to see what I miss and I don't think, but like to hear your comment. Anyway, I went back once more after this and...well I see nothing. First of all, everyone is getting a reaction. Second, Hinata finally appear after all of the reactions from others, so why the hell not. Look, you can hate the character, but she still in the field. Third, people say, "Why not anyone else?" Well, because many, if not all, will not think Naruto for their final breath, so go for Hinata. She will. Plus the whole darken panel means her conscious, along with the rest of the world, is now gone. Naruto senses that everyone is disappearing from the world. The funny thing is you're fallen to the victim of Pain Arc again, where it had the sense of ambiguous of thinking Naruto is only thinking of Hinata, which turned out it was about everyone. Funny, I was shocked to see one user with chinese letters to reacted that way.
So, I supposed I should be the brightside man to give the news. Well, here are few.
- Hinata is now gone. Literally. So, guess no more for her until she's out, but she will be joining along with everyone, "Hooray! You won, Naruto!"
- One thing that did cross my mind for the heck of it is Hinata's line is changed in my head and think like this: It's up to you, SS.
- Team 7 is still active, so somewhat connects above because well, final shot. And Sasuke talks about Naruto and himself. Good start...
- Well, in a way, NS still have two fans in the field, which one could be closet fan (Obito). So if Minato returns, plot armor engage.
- Oh, regarding to Minato, yeah, he won't be able to see Hinata now. Literally. So, there goes, "She is the true Kushina's parallel."
So in other words, I'm not phased. Well, that's about it. It seems like Team 7 is still on but now, maybe just maybe, with edo in presence. I do think Edo might die officially here soon by Madara. This is one way to get rid of them. I can be wrong, but it will sure make Naruto more upset if he sees his dad disappearing thanks to Madara. Minato can go back in a matter of second, so he may jump back next week. Again, Hinata not being in presence when Minato is around. Not good. So, next week, maybe we will see the main setup for the next volume. So far, no more anyone not named Edo and Team 7, Obito still around, weapon couldn't work unless get a cloud nin, and everywhere is a ghost town. At least they won't be butterfly.
