My only concern is Naruto's reaction, but then again I expected this. I knew Naruto would never hate Sasuke or question him and be this huge trusting and accepting of Sasuke.

Naruto's reaction isn't too puzzling because of that (even if it is disappointing), but Sakura... Sakura is more level-headed (or she should be, considering the past). And no questioning from her at all, when in the past she was willing to kill Sasuke for the things he did... Sakura's reaction is much more puzzling for me than Naruto's.

Hey Phantom laugh.gif Yeah I'd get not extensively questioning it yet, but the lack of any reactions whatsoever in expression or a few words of objection really makes the execution kinda sloppy. Especially on the Orochimaru part. It's not only unrealistic, it's a bit OOC.


He didn't jump in, but the kage mentioned that it was Orochimaru who revived them and sent them to help.


I can kinda understand why they wouldn't object. I mean...the more the better against the monster they're about to face, right? Nobody really has time to think about anyone's past actions right now. And it's not to say everyone wasn't shown to be surprised by all of this either, so....how is it ooc again? huh.gif

You know what's got me thinking, though. Look at Minato's eyes here:

Then here:

Can you figure out what's missing?

If it's a product of lazy art, okay.

But, if it's subtle foreshadowing....

Or I may just be thinking too hard on it.

Can I ask why exactly it's puzzling for you? The shock at seeing him is there. What else, to you, was needed, and why? It makes sense that she's more confused than angry by the appearance of this normal looking Sasuke, isn't it?

Minata is somehow alive again (at least in Tailed Beast mode)... is that what you might be implying? Maybe

This would be interesting, and sounds like a good excuse for a Naruto vs. Sasuke. However, Sasuke's villain buildup is still ultimately wasted, and that would've been the biggest driving force for that fight.

I don't think that it's wasted. Sasuke is with them now to save the village mainly. No one knows what he thinks other than that he wants to be Hokage in his own way. After the battle is finished and when has to leave, do you think that Sasuke will be normal with them 100% ? e
Sasuke will probably show us how he's not completely good, and darkness, seeing that wanting to be Hokage and avoiding whatever other opinions and him being in control whatsoever, will be shown. Not the darkness like before but like that he's going in the wrong path to have what he wants.

I get the whole destroying the village and stuff that was build up, and you have a point, but seems that Kishi wanted some Team 7 battle show and things to get interesting in this battle with Sasuke around.

It's Tsunade.

@MangaReader

I really have no idea. I thought his transformation to Kyuubi mode may have interacted with Edo Tensei somehow. Then again, as I said earlier, I may be over-analyzing.

It makes sense to me. It's actually a very mature reaction in my opinion as opposed to the rest of the rookies. She knows this isn't a time or place for her to be getting emotional. So she doesn't. She's ready to go out there and prove she can kick some ass with Team 7 and the rest of the Hokages. a_thumbs.gif

My little Sakura's growing up so fast. About to use the Byakugō and stuff. wow.png

Sasuke was never normal with them in the beginning...he had a glimmer of hope during the Chunin-Finals, but that all got eraser when Itachi appeared. So yeah, I think Sasuke still has hidden motives, but since there is a world ending threat, that needed to be taken care of first

Naruto and Sakura were shocked about Sasuke, and Sasuke talked to them about his situation now.
Naruto and Sakura are just okay with what he had told regarding that they're in battle. If nothing was preoccupying them then we all know that they would have open a conversation like they always do when they're reuniting alone.

I think after the fight finishes, and before Sasuke leaving, they'll talk to him more.

I'm not sure if someone have mentioned this here too, but just a warning to you, my friends. As well as Sasuke have apologized with Karin, he must apologize with Sakura too. And this is not an theory, it MUST happen. He owe somethings to her. So, if in the future will be some scene with him saving/escorting/supporting/helping her, don't worry! It is obvious that will happen. Or at least, it is very secure to happen. But that will mean nothing but just a closure for the relationship of Sasuke and Sakura.

This.

I know that everyone is on a real high after reading this chapter, but don't bash other fandoms. We didn't like it in 615, so why should we do the same thing now?

As for the hater comments from other websites, just ignore them. Just save your energy and enjoy the chapter. happy.gif

Any further bashing will be dealt with by mods, so play nice!

-------------


Well, I enjoyed this chapter. biggrin.gif

Minato asked if Sakura was Naruto's girlfriend, we had a golden comedy moment with Hashirama/Madara, and Team 7 were reunited with a kick-ass Sakura!

I believe the last page is my favourite. Sakura tells Naruto she's not weak, and you can literally see Naruto smiling with pride:


Can't wait for next week and Sakura kicking ass. biggrin.gif

Well naruto and sakura aren't saying or caring about the stuff Sasuke did because well there are a few good reasons.
1. Minato told naruto and sakura himself about Sasuke coming to help.
2. Naruto can trust his dad, sakura put her faith in naruto when it came to Sasuke.
3. Naruto always had faith in Sasuke, even when Sasuke was in crazy physco path mode in the land of iron.
4 it's an enemy of my enemy type deal, Sasuke wants to become hokage to change things himself just like Madara and it's this divide which will bring naruto and Sasuke into one last fight and bring about a new shinobi era.
5. The most powerful uchiha ever Is right in front of them and ultimately unstoppable, not to mention the god demon beast the ten tails, it will end the world if it gets the chance, not really the place to fuss about this stuff.

I mean in the marvel series, several times galactus has tried to destroy the earth but in many of these times, it took the combined efforts of both heroes and villains to stop galactus from consuming the earth. No world means nothing to conquer so obviously the villains had to work with the heroes in hese situations. Heck in the justice league series from 2003 the final episode had batman, superman, and lex Luther all team up to fight darkseid one of the most powerful characters in the do universe. Same situation here in a nutshell.

1. To that I say, even if Naruto sensed Minato's chakra on the way, he should want to know how this is even possible or makes any sense. The same goes with Sasuke suddenly wanting to help.

2. Not exactly. She did try to kill him behind Naruto's back. And even there, a small internal thought of "Sasuke, what happened to you? You want to help now?" or something along those lines would have immensely helped. Hell, just one panel of Naruto thinking "...ok. I have no clue what happened here, but I'll ask later" or something like that would have dispelled a lot of the problem, here. Or just an expression change from puzzled to confident, just...something instead of nothing.

3. Yeah, you're right about that. Which is why I'm more puzzled about Sakura than about Naruto.

4. Like I said before, the last fight being about the position for hokage would be interesting, but the kind of villainous buildup that Sasuke's had for a long time is still now wasted.

5. But that didn't stop motivational speeches, Naruto talking to Neji, communication of any kind before in the war. A few more seconds in this chapter would not have been a big deal at all.

Yes, the more the better. Yes, they were shown to be somewhat surprised, but not enough to make the execution good. And it's OOC because... *sigh* I don't want to re-type the whole analogy again. Hold on, let me go find my explanation from last chapter and I'll paste it here. One sec.
QUOTE (zacrathedemon5 @ May 15 2013, 03:21 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
The kunai really doesn't matter. The fact that Minato's there at all in the first place should have taken him by complete surprise, whether he saw the kunai or not. It's like if you saw a dead relative just walk into your house. It shouldn't be possible. Minato was not supposed to be able to be salvaged, even in a world plagued with edo tensei. He was gone. For good.

If you (figuratively) saw a dead relative walk into your house, chances are they wouldn't look at them, instantly smile, and offer them a refreshment with no sense of surprise or shock. More like "how the hell are you here, what happened, how is this possible?".

Now, yes, there are probably people out there that would react more naturally to a dead relative walking into their house. Likely someone apathetic, someone separated, or someone with a lack of concern that just accepts things as they are, someone that doesn't question things, that lets whatever happen happen. Needless to say, Naruto is not that type of person.

Here it is. Found it. biggrin.gif

EDIT: To everyone saying the lack of questioning makes sense, look. I get it. Yes, it makes sense that they wouldn't make a big fuss over it right now. But the little to no fuss made about it from Naruto and Sakura (Naruto for the revival of his dad last chapter, both of them for Orochimaru helping them now, Sakura for Sasuke) was executed badly. It's a matter of execution, and the bad execution makes it make less sense than it should. Hell, if Kishi took the time to write maybe one more page, a few more panels, it would have helped immensely.

What I meant by normal is him interacting with them like he was in part 1, and as in him doing wrong things before never happened.

  • Interests:Honestly, western sakura haters are pathetic (if your wondering why I say western, its because thats where all the sakura haters are) they hate sakura for the stupidest reasons, makes me wonder if they even read the manga for anything besides illogically hating on her, and even more so if they even read the same manga. Seriously they really are blind if they think sakura isn't the most popular female character in naruto and has a huge fanbase in japan, kishimoto-sensie's main fanbase. Honsetly, they aren't true naruto fans because they're practically bashing the main heroine of the series who has had AMAZING and deep emotional development, both romace-wise , character-wise and-power wise, and the love interest, Haruno sakura, of the main hero, Uzumaki Naruto. That alone is an insult to kishimoto-sensie's work. Not to mention they rub off the japanese culture, which is important to know if you wanna 100% understand the details of the manga.

If that scene will happen, and probably will, then all the SS fans will call their pairing canon. Then the NH fans will then say NS is dead, and NH will happen. And finally, a lot of people who ship NS will jump ship.

Pairing wars follow a certain pattern, that after every time something pairing related shows ups, you'll expect something like I menton above (^) will happen.
