It actually has begun.

Let me enlighten you!

 

Okay so I don’t know if y’all caught this, but NaruSaku fans always go on and on about parallels, so let’s draw one here. 

They usually compare Sakura to Kushina, saying they are the same. Despite the fact that Naruto isn’t really like Minato personality-wise, they still claim the parallel fits perfectly.

On these two pages, Minato compares Naruto to Kushina. A parallel is made, comparing Naruto to his mother (Kushina) as opposed to Sakura being compared to Kushina. 

If you would like to draw parallels, then it’s safe to assume that in the paralleled relationship that Naruto is expected to have, Naruto will be the brash and bold one, since he is being compared to Kushina. Because of that, his partner will have to be the sky and quiet one. 

Also, Minato was inspired by Kushina’s look of determination and apparant confidence in the ability to do anything. The same way that Hinata is inspired by Naruto in his confidence and determination to never give up. Minato is inspired by Naruto in the same way.

And, for the first time, NaruHina takes over the MinaKush parallel, and the NaruSaku fans lose one of their biggest arguments.

Not really. We have Kushina and Minato being compared to both Naruto and Sakura and not once has Hinata ever been in thought at all to either one. We still have chapter 631 which has Minato saying "This girl reminds me of Kushina."

Now we have Naruto being compared to Kushina, Minato, and the 1st Hokage.

Are we really that surprised that Naruto has some traits of both his parents rolled into one? I am not surprised at all, but again not once has Minato or Kushina been compared to Hinata. Not once.

So how can our argument be lost when it is still there?

Am I....completely retarded right now or is this a panel of Hashirama w/Rinnegan? Or Madara... wat.

It's Madara.

[MangaReader]

Uh... well it was a nice chapter...just the sparks it ignited really never should of been lit as there's nothing pairing related involved. Typical *sigh*

[Sakamaki Izayoi]

Sasuke filled my stock of jelly on this chapter for the week.

[Superman333]

Well it seemed like Sasuke as I predicted is jealous of Naruto's chakra control and his massive improvement which leads me to believe that Sasuke feels as if he needs to get stronger than Naruto which leads me to also believe he will use anything including Senju Cells .

Where is the all powerful and calm Madara, seems he is getting worried?

Exactly. This is bad news and now, he must play his trump card before it's too late. That's why I think the plan won't happen. Everyone is literally against him and surely, something else will happen. I really don't think the plan would happen but something else would.

[Hiraishin]

Ohhh... So Kushina was shown cause her and Naruto were being compared... Should have thought of that.

So, Minato was comparing their confidence against all odds or something? Idk, I must be the only person in the world who doesn't think Naruto and Kushina are that similar. But with the father/son stuff we got earlier, we were bound to get some mother stuff, I suppose. I have to admit, though, I'm a little salty that Kushina is getting more screen time than Sakura.   Either way, I can already see that this chapter will make the Anti-NS go all, "LOL NaruSaku isn't a parallel to MinaKushi because Naruto is like Kushina!!1!1!11" Yes, let's just forget the fact that Naruto is both Kushina and Minato's son, so he inherited traits from BOTH his parents.

Stupid Naruto is getting kind of old... We've had a lot of him lately. Obviously he isn't the smartest shinobi in the world, but making him look kind of dumb doesn't mean making him look like a buffoon. The Naruto/Kurama interaction was quite amusing. Although... I can't help but think it felt just a tad forced. Just a tiny bit. Maybe it's because of the situation. I dunno lol.

YES, a father and son combo rasengan! Saw that coming, and it's great to finally see Minato in bijuu mode. He looked so awesome~

Tobirama saying Naruto could even become a greater Hokage than Hashirama... urgh. Look, being insanely strong is cool and all, but it takes more than power to be a great Hokage/leader.

Sasuke angry that Naruto is so obviously a hell of a lot stronger than him? Yeah, I've seen that before lol.

AND HELL YES INFINITE TSUKUYOMI! I've been waiting for this forever. Finally the manga will get interesting. Kishi better not be joking with this - make it seem like Infinite Tsukuyomi will be activated, but then somehow it's stopped at the last minute.

If this is the real deal, it looks like RTN will come true in the manga. I totally saw this coming, ever since the movie was released. excited for this. Hopefully we'll see some of the interaction we did in the movie.   
 

Also, this picture was so full of win at the end of the chapter.

Omg, that's perfect ahaha. And I love The Avengers. <3
 

I have a feeling the next chapter will be like "How to stop the eye of moon plan tssss??!", instead of the plan itself.

It's one step at a time, one step each chapter.

Right? It's tiring.

Proof of this;

however... According to what Kishimoto said in the cover of this volume, Naruto is going to the conclusion, definetely.

 

Kishimoto Masashi

NARUTO is also entered into its climax fairly. It's extending than I thought but we are certainly going towards the conclusion, step by step. The present time cover I've rewritten, with the current impression, the illustration at the time of Volume 1's 4th chapter. Finally I put in this volume an image that I figured at the times of the first volume...

He knows!! It was actually a fairly good chapter. I just wish the phasing was faster. I want the Sasuke plot to move, I understand that Sasuke is not purely good. His jealousy, bitterness and secret intentions have been hinted at for a while, but I want it to lead to something..now. Sasuke turning the tides has potential to be my favourite moment of the war.

 

I also think we can take the family business another time..right Minatoo?

[RedDelicious]

I wonder what Sasuke's role will be now that infinite Tukiyomi is about to be released.

Sasuke will be the one to break the jutsu.

Sasuke isn't happy unless he is miserable. That paradox will cause the happy world of Infinite Tukiyomi to shatter.

Man, lately all the chapters have felt so short. I'm not complaining or anything, it's just a bit...eerie. 

 

Anyway, it's really astonishing to see just how far Naruto has come. Now he can combine Sage Mode with Kurama's chakra. Once Naruto vs. Sasuke finally comes to pass, it sure is gonna be one hell of a fight.

 

Speaking of which. Jealous Sasuke...Gotta love it.

 

Kishi has really been pushing the Uzumaki family bond with these last chapters, which is a good thing, because they're just such an awesome family.

Why does Sasuke even care anymore?  I mean this for discussion's sake, because I have my speculations.  He wants to cut his bond with Naruto. I understand that, so it's understandable to want to be stronger than him, but really, he acts as if this is impossible.  Is it really so surprising how far Naruto's come?  Sasuke left Konoha, he didn't see Naruto's incremental growth like Sakura and Kakashi.  After only seeing each other a few times after two years, is it really a shock to see such a difference?

 

Exactly. This is bad news and now, he must play his trump card before it's too late. That's why I think the plan won't happen. Everyone is literally against him and surely, something else will happen. I really don't think the plan would happen but something else would.

 

We still have Kakashi in the other dimension.  That's been some foreshadowing for awhile now.

Very true!  Too bad Kushina couldn't be there.  We have Minato mentioning her, but it doesn't fill the void.

my guess is that Sasuke too probably was training also and believed that he was stronger than Naruto after being away for so long . But Naruto surprised him . 

[TouKen4Life3g]

I guess this will postpone the idea of becoming Hokage if he was serious that is. Now that he knows Naruto is stronger than him, he won't go back to Konoha for sure. He will go back with Orochimaru. Man, I don't want to say any further but let's just say it's not good for S+any (minus k perhaps).

Lol ok. Well anyway, yeah you're right.

 

I guess the Sasuke's part could happen in the next volume. I really wonder what is he going to do now.

He might fight with Naruto for a little while longer however I am anticipating a quick attack from him or he might just take off without warning to get prepared . 

[Dragunov]

Hmm. Who knows how this will play out.

[Superman333]

hopefully how everybody on here hopes for it too happen .
