Naruto 485 is out at Mangastream!

[Cupcake-chan]

For a second there I thought Naruto was going to make a romantic confession. XDD
Now I'm curious of what Naruto will do instead of killing or being killed.

[jworks]

Its like the balloon got let go of and it just pooted all over the room untill it was deflated...yeah thats what this chapter felt like. i guess it was cool though.

WoW

Of course, we all read the translated text but reading it with the fitting pciture is a lot better.

[Freakazoid]

I really want Sasuke to just kick Naruto's ass so bad. I mean, Naruto's core character is alot cooler then Sasuke's, and Sasuke is just a beyond terrible character. But Naruto was acting like such a schoolgirl aching for the cool guy's package this chapter. It was down right pathetic. Maybe if he got a huge ass kicking he'd get some reality slapped into him.

But until then lol@Naruto.

[KungFuTruffle]

I loved this chapter. It got back to why I love Naruto, and showed it perfectly: He doesn't care about what other people think, or what anyone else wants him to do. He does what he wants because he believes in his actions.

He's finally back to being the character I love.

sakura seems more sad that naruto considers sasuke a friend still

sakura really cares about him her face says it all after yelling at sasuke she then LOOkED at naruto i think

Not a bad chapter. Some people are complaining about Naruto's choice, but he's Naruto. What were you expecting?

I think his third choice is simply "break Sasuke's arms and legs and drag him back to Konoha". I'm not sure what's going to happen, Sasuke is almost exhausted and Naruto was stratched by Sakura's poisoned kunai. They'll probably keep fighting until they both collapse. Then Sakura will put Naruto's head on her lap again and give him the antidote. I'd like to say Sasuke would be dragged back to Konoha, but he'll probably get spirited away by either Venus Flytrap Guy or Madara.

I wonder what Karin will choose to do?

[Mugen no Neko]

I was lol-ing so freaking much at Sasuke's face on the second to last page on the last panel... he was like... listening to Naruto's nostalgia-no-jutsu ...

Okay. I can here the shonen-ai fangirls squeeeeeeaaaaaaaal Naruto's such a cute one.

Though I'm slightly confused... they had just CHIDORIRASENGANED - wutever, but on the last page they're still doing it... did that gay "I'm so happy that I met you" moment happen whilst they were doing that? Dx

Oh yeah... I should be happy about this I guess... Karin has given up on the Saaaasuke. Yay?

omg... the kunai was poisoned? Naaaaaaaruto! The people talking about that were right then.

What I liked is that Sakura was mad at Sasuke for insuting Naruto...Of course, that doesn't say YAY, NS IS CANNON, but it show that she put Naruto before Sasuke.

As for Sakura saving Naruto, while I would like to see Sakura more involve, I think that her role is done for now.

Like I said earlier, I'm satisfied that she didn't stay weeping and react like that....maybe seeing Naruto again gave her the will to become strong again

i feel SN is going to get trolled next chapter

but honesty naruto really needs to open his eyes it seems that kakashi and sakura has open their eyes i just hope next chapter naruto will have to see what sasuke has become because i know hes growing up i know its his way but its going to backfire

this arc seems to be about reality and mistakes

sakura to me has seen her mistakes kakashi has seen his mistakes its a matter of time before naruto sees his own mistake

It does hurt me a little that Naruto has completely disregarded at what recently happen to Sakura, you figured the last thing he would be doing is smiling in a conversation with Sasuke.

I think Naruto is also the one taking Sasuke lightly and doesn't realize how dark and power his MS is. I wonder if Naruto would still feel like he can save Sasuke if he saw Amaterasu and Susano'o.

[catsi563]

good chapter in regards to moving the confrontation along.

Sakura gave Sasuke the same earful she gave Orochimaru about Narutos feelings. And the tender slightly sad look she gave Naruto was heart warming for me.

very curious as ot how this poisoned kunai angle will play into the confrontation

still hopeful for a bench scene resolution

[crazyefra]

I would say that this chapter was good. So sasuke's plan to revive his clan is not by having uchiha babies but by killing those that tainted the uchiha clan, that just puts another nail into Sasu/Anyone.

[roninmedia]

SasuNaru got a big boost this chapter.

I've been waiting for this 3rd option to be revealed ever since Itachi made the proposition to Naruto in the forest.

[crazyefra]

I don't see that gay pairing getting a boost as a romantic couple but as a brother/friend relationship.

[Insurrection]

That was cool, I'll wait for the sleepyfans because it seemed a bit rushed but I luved it!
At the start Kakashi was like this

And then Sakura yelled at Sasuke, yay! And it turned out the picture of Naruto using Chidori was on purpose, to illustrate how they could've been in the other shoes. You know what, you have to hand it to Naruto, he remained pure. I expected a cliffhangar at page 13 but then that talk was good, Naruto shows why he's loveable and Sasuke shows....well....Sasuke just shows that he's a kitten.

NaruSasu is cannon! NOT!!!!

Plus now we have witnesses for this fight until whirly mask shows up. And revive the Uchiha clan no longer = SS babies so what else do you need to debunk?

[Freakazoid]

SasuNaru didn't get a boost at all. But Naruto--->Sasuke sure did, and that's all that pairing really stands on anymore.

Anyway... argh, i'm just frustrated with the way the manga is going. Overall the plot is decent, but Naruto is just annoying me to no end.

[chouzu_tao]

SasuNaru got a big boost this chapter.

I've been waiting for this 3rd option to be revealed ever since Itachi made the proposition to Naruto in the forest.

!!! That's right, I completely forgot about that! And I completely forgot that Naruto was cut by Sakura's poison kunai... To me, for Kishimoto to mention that and not have it be a factor... would make no sense, so I think it'll definitely play a role in what happens.

Naruto, I stand by his decision to look for a different answer. The right answer may not always be the most popular one or come to the quickest resolution. I think that's what makes Naruto a strong character. But I will say, Naruto has said all this stuff before to Sasuke, and for him to say it all again is probably my only real complaint about this chapter. This time it truly falls on deaf ears, at least at VoTE Sasuke acknowledged he was strong. Maybe Naruto should tell Sasuke that ... you know, is father was the 4th Hokage who sacrificed himself for the village, dying to seal it within him, and that he has no idea who his mom is.

I'm anxious to see what his 3rd option is... hopefully it's not the 'break your bones' one again because... well, we know how well that went over last time.

And Smiter I like your thinkin about the antidote.
