Not Telling
I decided since this manga has gone on for 101 chapter I should write my general opinion about it. Other matters in my life and general disinterest had made that a bit slower than it should. So it will either be out this week or it won't since I shouldn't dragged that on for too long.
Summary Time: Chapter 21 Mangekyo Sharingan...This is the chapter where Salad goes Super Uchiha and should show off.
Cover page is Salad...oh she has a red and black color scheme like the sharingan...eh...wait I think her hairstyle changed and is now somewhat spikey...to show her power up...Ah damn, he really did turn her using mangekyo into Super Uchiha. Stop ripping off Dragonball so blatantly.
Salad has a flashback montage to build up her resolve. Her feelings for Bolt, her dream of becoming hokage, and that she has great potential she just needs to embrace it or something...How long is it going on! 6. 7. 8. 9. 9 pages. Condense this. Yep we are going back to a time where Ikemoto thinks wasting pages makes it more meaningful. Oh she was not aware of the activation that's the excuse.
Well she gone Super Uchiha nothing Tree-Shinki can do even touches her while she barely moves. She has a black hole/gravity ball ability to absorb attacks. She instinctually knows what it does and how to use it...how interesting. Tree-Shinki think the hole is stationary so he just has to attack with her between her and the hole, but she can summon multiple holes. She summons so many black holes/gravity balls it start lifting both her and Tree-Shinki off the ground. Cups points out her has gravity powers through her black holes/gravity balls.
While he is slowly drawn into a black hole/gravity ball near him unable to move or escape. She monologies about how she been holding back due to self esteem issues, but now she is done holding back. She has embraced her true self. Allowing her to use Ohirume. Which is an another name of Amaterasu...so this is her version of the black flames; at least I am hoping that is the case. Tree-Shinki is defeated they have his soul bulb...the problem is his body is at their base. She faints.
Hime updates Clone Jiraiya he updates Bolt. This was all apart of CJ's plan as they needed Salad to awaken her Mangekyo...which she already activated they could have just told her. He asked if Blond-D death was always part of his plan and was there another way to get Salad to activate the mangekyo...yes, again she activated it years ago, you could have just told her. This leads him to question CJ's plan about Konohamaru wondering if he is leaving him to die. CJ warns if he intervenes Tree-Jenga will comes to catch him. He goes to save Konohamaru who was defeated by Tree-Moegi...remember he should be the next hokage. Bolt one-shots her and Jenga sense him, as all the tree people are connected.
Dear god this was a bad chapter. A third of it is flashbacks. Then most of it Super Uchiha 2 Salad boredly one-shotting her opponent with power to summon black holes/gravity balls. Bolt question CJ's plan after hearing of a death. Goes to save Konohamaru, one shots his opponent. The big bad takes notice. If this was a shorter weekly manga this might be fine...granted the fact the enemies are one shotted is an issue. As either the opponents can be beaten in one blow or they are invincible in this story. But this monthly format he is just filling up page space with a story that he couldn't fit into around 40 pages.
5/20.
