In this case, though, Sasuke was a product of his environment, which resulted in the crazy slippery slope that we've witnessed. To a certain extent, the Kage have to take responsibility for being a part of the flawed system, I think. It wouldn't be fair for them to entirely penalize him for everything, since they're a part of the problem. It's like blaming a person for being unable to do something, due to a disability. Maybe that's a bad comparison, though. With that having been said, I feel as though Sasuke still has to make amends for the things he's pulled off; I really don't agree with much of them. However, he's not entirely at fault, especially because this was all a part of an ongoing problem that began when he was just an innocent child.

You miss my point. My complaint is not that Sasuke is being let back in. It's that I fear (and there is precedent for this) that Naruto will not actually have to answer an obvious objection to his chose course. People would rightfully be upset with this. He should have to provide them an answer.

I am hoping one is provided, but his history says don't get my hopes up.

Oh, I see. Well, my guess is that Naruto is still growing, so he's starting to realize some things, so maybe this is a part of it? He's shown a lot of growth in this arc, so this might also be a part of it, too.

Huh? We're getting two chapters next week. Same time most likely. 699 will come out first (maybe delayed if there's more pages) but 700 might take some time since it's 44 pages..

I though the manga ended Nov. 10, either way thank you for the info.

[MoonDrop04]

Wait I thought both 699 and 700 would both be 22 pages long making it both 44 pages worth of content, including 22 of those pages being in color next week?? O_o

[Heisenberg]

Ah you think so ? Can you elaborate ? And how is your meth goin' ? lol

Build up doubt in the community than shock them with NS happening. We kno Naruto and Sakura are going to have some interaction but they weren't used at all Naruto was used in Sakura's sketch etc. There realy is no other way to take that other than NS

[Dark Magician]

Since Naruto is going to bring up the promise next chapter, I wonder how Kishi will butcher it so it fits the movie. I expect Sakura to look bad again like in 693.

"wow you look even worse than before"

[T XD]

Nah..... I think it said 44 pages in colour which is refering to 700. I thought 699 was going to be extended too, so we'll see.

But, 44 pages in color take too much time. Unless they started with it much earlier. I understood that the 44 pages are for both chapters. 699 with 22 pages plus a colored cover page, and 700 with 22 pages and all the pages in color.

[T XD]

They might have, who knows. Probably kept it hidden for a surprise. The preview or what was it said there will be 44 pages in color and that refers to the last chapter 700. 699 is getting a lead color page.

Not going to be sad at all if the last chapter have 44 pages XD

 

By the way, your signature, I love it. Which anime is it from ?

[SuperSilverStar]

I wonder if next week's issue of SJ will spoil that Naruto countdown announcing that "Huge Project". 

[abloublou]

I disagree, actually if anything its more likely that the pairing will be settled in the manga because of the ads.

What makes you believe that ?

[Heisenberg]

What makes you believe that ?

obviously so NS would become a bigger surprise when it happens in the manga also Sakura and Narto have been hidin a lot in the trailer despite being the two main leads

I wish I could be that optimistic, but the movie really makes it look like Kishi wants the suspens to last some bit more...

 

Open end seems now more likely than NH end.

 

But I'm all for you being right of course.

[Imhd]

Guys let's ignore the movie chaos and discuss about how will Sakura get there after all this is the last week of narudo manga
So I was thinking what actually took Kaka/sakura that long to get there it's almost been a whole day since she woke up :/
And I can already feel the ova scene coming :')

[Hiyuusha]

If Ova scene happens Sasuke will be there too though. Thats the only thing. They will be right next to each other. In fact, Sasuke might try to cockblock Sakura cause he wants the blonde all for himself lol

[Imhd]

^ Well there's A big chance for sauce to be sleeping or knocked out from the blood loss ,while naruto chan will definitely be awake to tell Sakura not to worry :)

[Phantom_999]

So is there no chapter next week cause we got this chapter early?

[*- ZerΩ -*]

So is there no chapter next week cause we got this chapter early?

O.O dont tell me things like this..... Kishi said that the manga will end 10th November... so since we get an early release..we get them on 5~6th November

[harry4e]

So is there no chapter next week cause we got this chapter early?

 

There is always a chance, I would expect with the second most popular manga in the past 15 years coming to an end, and with the final chapter (It's a double chapter apparently) being entirely in colour, they would expect the demand for the final issue to be higher than normal, (specially with the movie release fans would want to know how it ended before they watched the movie, there are always some who only buy the volumes and not the weekly releases) so SJ could potentially dispatch the comics a days early to reach the stores in time.

 

It could happen.

[Phantom_999]

I understand wanting payoff for all the years of shipping it, but is it really worth it if people look at this pairing and see just a badly written convenience? I expected NS to be a pairing everyone would eventually warm up to, not something that looks like a last minute decision to spite NH/SS fans.

 

True but unfortunately in shipping wars not everyone warms up to a couple not matter how obvious or well written. though again I blame that part on just putting it off until the end, cause by that point it already is a badly written convienience with implausible or unbelieavable excuses on why it hasn't happended earlier, with all development stalled or stunted in phase one, cause they don't want to resolve anything yet which is why fans act the way they do sometimes, especially with romance.
